Abstract
Despite its age, Fortran remains essential in many scientific fields. Ensuring code quality in long-term projects with evolving standards is critical, but few tools analyse Fortran, and they are not free. We present FortranAnalyser, a multi-platform, static analysis tool designed to enhance Fortran code quality. This paper outlines its development, features, and comparison with other tools. Additionally, we demonstrate its effectiveness through real-world applications, such as improving the Fortran code in a major global climate model.
