Ocean Modeling Discussion

When I run a 2-D tides-only case (zero-sustr,svstr), the tidal elevations during flood are perfect compared with the predicated at NOAA tidal gauge, but during ebb the water levels are always higher than the NOAA's (the amplitude is smaller). I assume it's due to bathymetry (i.e. minimum water depth ...

In set_vbc.F, you'll find the following code helps a lot: # ifdef SALINITY ! !----------------------------------------------------------------------- ! Multiply fresh water flux with surface salinity. If appropriate, ! apply correction ...

That makes much sense. But it's still weird to me that in order to start running a certain case, I have to do double or even triple try. Just now, I submitted one case three times and after twice blowing-ups, it's running smoothly :cry: I don't want to do this sort of things for very case. You know ...

Hi all, I set-upped a Linux box with Intel i7 + Fedora11_64 + ifort11 + mpich2. I could compile and run test case smoothly. Happy! But something weird happens. Whatever I edit in "*.in" file (like NHIS, NINFO, somethings not important) and rerun the previously successful case, it will blow up and ...

Hi drivas. Thank you for your helpful comments. How did you apply radiation & nudging conditions to rivers? Did you modify the ROMS code or just put the river source points on your open boundaries? I recall someone in this forum modified the ROMS code and created a new CPP called PSOURCE_FSCHAPMAN ...

Hi all, I couldn't find any boundary CPP for river. I think we need some kind of open boundary conditions like free surface conditions if we cut one river not at its head, for example in river plume applications. Tide can reach the source point along the river channel and cause water level ...

Yeah~~ I know why...thanks all

After everything done, I ran the test case. It showed information as follow and stopped.... Process Information: Thread # 0 (pid= 0) is active. Model Input Parameters: ROMS/TOMS version 3.0 Wednesday - September 17, 2008 - 9:35:44 PM ...

It works~~~!!! thanks~~!!

during the installation of NETCDF (./configure--->make check--->make install), there was no error... but after I finished the seventh step in the tutorial, I compiled ROMS, just as: (7) Modify makefile and compiler file (8 ) Compile ROMS there were errors as follows: $ make clean rm -f -r core *.ipo ...
