Water type option

#1 Unread post by javadi »

Hi all,

I have one question about jerlov water type WTYPE. This is in the .in file and we should define it 1 (clear ocean)to 7. Here is my question. In my domain, it should be better to have two water types in the western and eastern coast. The western is not clear and the eastern is clear. In this case, is it possible to have different jerlov water type WTYPE?

In CPP option, is there an option WTYPE_GRID to turn ON spatially varying Jerlov water type is it for this purpose? How can I use it?

Best,

Yes, this capability has been available in ROMS for nine years! With a little curiosity, you can find the information that you seek in the ROMS trac system immediately instead of posting here in the Forum. We always recommend to the User to do that basic search first. See the :arrow: following trac ticket (https://www.myroms.org/projects/src/ticket/609). Please learn how to do that search.
