+
+## What is MED about?
+
+ACCESS-NRI's "Model Evaluation and Diagnostics" work is a critical facet of climate modeling, encompassing various tasks designed to ensure the model's reliability and accuracy.
+
+**Evaluation** involves scrutinizing the model through Model/Observation confrontations, checking its performance against real-world observations. It also includes experiment comparisons, testing the model under different scenarios, and inter-model comparisons like the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP), assessing how the ACCESS-NRI model fares when compared with other climate models.
+
+**Diagnostics** involves constant monitoring of model runs to detect any anomalies or inconsistencies and a thorough analysis of outputs to verify the model's accuracy over time.
+
+## ACCESS-MED data and tools hosted on Gadi
+
+If you are new to model evaluation and diagnostics, we recommend you read our [Getting Started with MED page](./model_evaluation_getting_started/index.md). Here, we provide catalogs and pointers to [observational data](./model_evaluation_observational_catalogs.md) as well as [model data](./model_evaluation_model_catalogs/index.md) that can be used for evaluation. We also provide a number of [frameworks for model evaluation](./model_evaluation_on_gadi/index.md). We are also working on implementing more frameworks and recipes as well as formatting tools for a better model evaluation and diagnostics.

+### Tools in development
+
+We are currently setting up a range of tools that will help you to better evaluate and diagnose climate models:
+* Model Diagnostics for on-the-fly analysis of your models at different snapshots
+* Data format processing tools like APP4
+* An Evaluation Recipe Gallery with searching functionality
+
+While we are working on these, we have collected a number of links to existing tools in our [community tab](../community_resources/index.md) (note that we are not currating them).

+## TBD: CMORisation
+
+TBD: Raw data vs. curated data: CMORized vs. not! What does CMORized actually mean (look at ESMValTool documentation)?
+TBD: Add APP4 to navigation (replace **Model Format Processing**?)
+TBD: Tools to check if data is CMOR-compliant (raise issue)
+TBD: Discuss with Dougie: How can we identify what is CMORized and what is not?
