If you are a new model user you should in the first instance contact OpenIFS support (by emailing openifs-support@ecmwf.int) requesting access to OpenIFS by providing the following information: your full name, your affiliation and related institutional email address, and your ECMWF account user name. OpenIFS staff will then activate OpenIFS user policies for your personal ECMWF account. In some cases we may need to request additional verification of your affiliation with your licensed institute prior to giving you access.
