Short summary
A lightweight software library has been developed to realise the coupling of Earth system model components. The software provides a parallelised two-dimensional neighbourhood search, interpolation, and communication for the coupling between any two model components and offers flexible coupling of physical fields. The efficient and fully parallelised algorithms directly support the coupling of physical fields defined on unstructured and block-structured numerical grids.
