Scientist for Regional Climate modelling in the Danish Climate Atlas


The Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI) will in the coming years develop a common Danish dataset for use in climate adaptation – the so-called Danish Climate Atlas. As a part of this effort, a new fulltime position is ...

Dear CharlesJames,

I value very much your effort exploring possibilities. I also understand that do not buy an expensive compiler that you do not need. Thanks for that effort.

Beside that, I've had the change to try the program on another computer. It works very well and offers a smooth way to ...

Hej John,

I very impressed by what I see in the description (pdf-file) of your grid program. Unfortunately we a not allowed and able to install any program on our windows machines. Therefore I would like to ask, if you program could modified so that it runs on Windows without installation. Since I ...

As a consistent data set for bedrock and ice shelf topography as well grounding line positions you might consider the following data set

Timmermann, R, et al. (2010), " A consistent dataset of Antarctic ice sheet topography, cavity geometry, and global bathymetry ", Earth Syst. Sci. Data, 2, 261 ...

Hi,

you might have a quick look at
Bolin, B., & Rodhe, H. (1973). A note on the concepts of age distribution and transit time in natural reservoirs. Tellus, 25(1), 58–62. doi:10.1111/j.2153-3490.1973.tb01594.x

"A brief review is given of the concepts age distribution, transit time distribution ...

I faced the problems with ferret several times and have found a quite simple solution

Assuming that show data gives the following output

currently SET data sets:

This is my Linux-necsx.mk File for a NEC SX-6 at the DKRZ, Germany.

We use a cross compiler environment on a Linux-driven front end causing the file name to be Linux-necsx.mk. This file is based on the Linux-ifort.mk file. If you have a similar setup, copy the file into the directory Compilers and ...

I have used cdo (Climate Data Operator http://www.mpimet.mpg.de/fileadmin/software/cdo/), which works nicely with netCDF data files. Part of the command suite are different interpolation schemes ( e.g. bilinear, nearest neighbor, conservative remapping .... ). You use cdo directly from your unix ...

Matlab Toolboxes for ROMS are also available from the following sites

a) ROMS web site (Software / Processing Packages / matlab.tar.gz ), http://www.myroms.org/index.php?page=Processing (Enter the matlab directory)
b) E. Di Lorenzo web site: http://www.ocean3d.org/RNT/

I personally use the ...

This is correct. The via seagrid2roms converted file should contain all necessary fields. You might check the content visually with ncview ( http://meteora.ucsd.edu/~pierce/ncview_home_page.html ) a simple netCDF viewer, which I use also to inspect model output. But please keep in mind, it is only a ...

In some cases you even might experience problems with the above reported set of switches for the configure statement: Code runs and stops with Segmentation fault while it writes into the ocean_his.nc file.

In this case you might follow the instructions given by Intel to build your netCDF libraries ...

If you have compiled both ROMS and the netCDF library with the Intel ifort compiler (in my case Version 10.x) and your error persists you might append the -lnetcdff switch in ./Compilers/Linux-ifort.mk , so that

LIBS := -L$(NETCDF_LIBDIR) -lnetcdf

becomes

LIBS := -L$(NETCDF_LIBDIR) -lnetcdff ...
