Climate simulations belong to the most data-intensive scientific disciplines and are—in relation to one of humankind's largest challenges, i.e., facing anthropogenic climate change—ever more important. Not only are the outputs generated by current models increasing in size, due to an increase in resolution and the use of ensembles, but the complexity is also rising as a result of maturing models that are able to better describe the intricacies of our climate system. This article focuses on developments and trends in the scientific workflow for the analysis and visualization of climate simulation data, as well as on changes in the visualization techniques and tools that are available.
