Ocean Modeling Discussion

Hi, How do we get the values of K_h and K_v mentioned in the diffusivity term of the heat budget equation (the same equation which started the discussion and also attached for easy referral). I suppose density can be derived by adding rho_anomaly with mean density. Please comment if I am wrong. We t...

Hello, I am writing in connection with ROMS_3.7_NPZD_IRON model set-up. The model is running but it is not reading dissolved iron eastern boundary condition. I prescribed open boundary for NO3 and iron and closed boundary for the rest variables in npzd_iron.in file. Initially, the model was not runn...

Hi Kate,

I was asking whether ROMS code is capable of reading initial file having 64bit_offset NCFORMAT.
Anyway, I tested the same and it is reading successfully.

Thanks.

Hi,

If I save ROMS initial file as 64bit_offset NCFORMAT then model code will be reading the initial file.

Hi Kate,

I was asking about the initial file.
I understand that the number of initial file has to be one.

Hello,

The size of the initial file of my set-up is too big to use.
Is there any option available to declare more than one initial file in ROMS .in file as available for boundary files (NBCFILES == *) ?

Please refer the following paper
Fiechter et al., Modeling iron limitation of primary production in the coastal Gulf of Alaska, Deep-Sea ResearchII56(2009)2503–2519.

I was running the model while changing the scaling factor of rain and waiting to see whether it is getting stable physics or blowing up.
Meanwhile, I answered your other questions.
Anyway, almost two month run is completed and it is working fine.
Thanks for your attention.

Yes, surface plots.
Sea surface salinity is relaxed to the monthly climatological values derived from WOA 2009.
units on rain - kilogram meter-2 second-1.

Hi Kate, I wiil let you know after performing following experiments: The model run without CoSiNE. After stable physics coupled (with CoSiNE) run. Please find the following details: float PRATE(ocean_time, lat, lon) ; PRATE:missing_value = -1.e+34f ; PRATE:_FillValue = -1.e+34f ; PRATE:long_name = &...

Dear All, I am writing in connection to a problem which we are facing during ROMS-CoSiNE coupled run. It is a Indian Ocean basin wide quarter degree model with 40 vertical layers. We have derived initial and boundary condition for the physical variables (temp,salt,u,v and zeta) from ECCO. The biolog...

Dear Users, I am new to ROMS and I will be grateful if someone helps me out a bit. I have been trying to include Powell's NPZD Model in ROMS in Indian Ocean but it's blowing up right at the first step. I have checked that the hydrodynamics is working fine, i.e., I have successfully run the model wit...
