Abstract: Abstract The results of the same regional climate simulation executed on different computer systems are compared to assess the influence of computer architecture and compiler characteristics on the results of long-term numerical simulations. The comparisons of temperature and precipitation fields show significant differences at any time. The differences of the monthly mean values of the same fields are, however, much smaller. This indicates that the influence of the computer system selected for the simulation can be neglected for the interpretation of climate values but may lead to non negligible uncertainties in the weather forecast for a specific date.
