If you go intothe project statsfor both, you will see that there was a hyge spike for both on the 5th of this month where they gained over a 40 million cobblestones and 100 million cobblestones respectively.

They also have a 100% active rate meaning everyone was granted credit that day. Im confused about what actually happened.

What happened to CPDN and BBC Climate Change?

From Carl @ CPDN:


if they're running the sulphur cycle they may get less than the current coupled model per trickle; I "balanced" the weighting yesterday to reflect that some models are harder to run. I think the credits per trickle should be pretty close, i.e. here's the table I use:

[pre]
+---------+-----------------------------------+-------------------+---------------------+
| modelid | description | timestep_per_year | credit_per_timestep |
+---------+-----------------------------------+-------------------+---------------------+
| 1 | UK Met Office HADSM3 (Slab Model) | 17280 | 0.00875 |
| 2 | HadSM3 with sulphur cycle | 17280 | 0.014875 |
| 3 | HadCM3 Spinup Experiment | 25920 | 0.01 |
| 4 | HadCM3L Coupled Model Experiment | 25920 | 0.01 |
+---------+-----------------------------------+-------------------+---------------------+
[/pre]

so credits per timestep should be 259.2 for hadcm3l and 257.04 for sulphur cycle
