Designed by a large scientific community, it helps researchers, policymakers, and businesses analyse the impacts of natural hazards and explore adaptation strategies. -As of today, CLIMADA provides global coverage of major climate-related extreme-weather hazards at high resolution (4x4km) via a [data API](https://climada.ethz.ch/data-api/v1/docs) For select hazards, historic and probabilistic events sets, for past, present and future climate exist at distinct time horizons. +As of today, CLIMADA provides global coverage of major climate-related extreme-weather hazards at high resolution (4x4km) via a [data API](https://climada.ethz.ch/data-api/v1/docs). For select hazards, historical and probabilistic events sets, for past, present and future climate exist at distinct time horizons. You will find a repository containing scientific peer-reviewed articles that explain software components implemented in CLIMADA [here](https://github.com/CLIMADA-project/climada_papers). CLIMADA is divided into two parts (two repositories): 1. the core [climada_python](https://github.com/CLIMADA-project/climada_python) contains all the modules necessary for the probabilistic impact, the averted damage, uncertainty and forecast calculations. Data for hazard, exposures and impact functions can be obtained from the [data API](https://github.com/CLIMADA-project/climada_python/blob/main/doc/tutorial/climada_util_api_client.ipynb). [Litpop](https://github.com/CLIMADA-project/climada_python/blob/main/doc/tutorial/climada_entity_LitPop.ipynb) is included as demo Exposures module, and [Tropical cyclones](https://github.com/CLIMADA-project/climada_python/blob/main/doc/tutorial/climada_hazard_TropCyclone.ipynb) is included as a demo Hazard module. -2. the petals [climada_petals](https://github.com/CLIMADA-project/climada_petals) contains all the modules for generating data (e.g., TC_Surge, WildFire, OpenStreeMap, ...). Most development is done here. The petals builds-upon the core and does not work as a stand-alone. +2. the petals [climada_petals](https://github.com/CLIMADA-project/climada_petals) contains all the modules for generating data (e.g., TC_Surge, WildFire, OpenStreetMap, ...). Most development is done here. The petals build upon the core and do not work as a stand-alone. For new users, we recommend to begin with the core (1) and the [tutorials](https://github.com/CLIMADA-project/climada_python/tree/main/doc/tutorial) therein.
