Ocean Modeling Discussion

Hello,

Thank you; I'm on the latest version of the develop branch now. I'm not exactly sure how I downloaded the tagged version that I did, since even the main branch seems to have been updated early this year. In the future I will be more careful and read the wiki.

Thank you for your time.

Hello all,

I was working on checking volume conservation in my Nested Grid setup using check_refine.m, and ran into an issue where there was a banding pattern appearing in several variables.

Looking at check_refine.m, the issue was coming from ...

Hello,

Sorry for the mistake; I typed it wrong. It should be Let me know if that works.

Cheers!

Hello,

I've gotten it working. The 'fix' was fairly clearly stated; I just had to define NestedGrids in the build script.

I don't know how old the version of ROMS I was using before is, but having CPP options in build script is new to me. I think I was looking to put the NestedGrids in the ...

Hello,

I'm still working on making sure I've updated to version 4.2, and am working on getting nesting working in the dogbone test case. When I try to compile, I get the following error.



post_initial.f90(70): error #6404: This name does not have a type, and must have an explicit type. [NGETD ...

That makes good sense. Thank you.

Thank you

I think my issue was in the compilation process. It was definitely an error on my part.

When I changed Hout(idzslT) back to F F, I was still getting the same error.

I started from a fresh copy of the test case and got it working (including saving to a netcdf file). The issue I think ...

Hello,

I've recently updated roms, and am having trouble with the estuary_test test case. I'm getting an error when the program tries to write to the history file:


forrtl: severe (408): fort: (3): Subscript #1 of the array HOUT has value 0 which is less than the lower bound of 1

Is your grid spherical? The Matlab scripts have to figure out whether the x and y dimensions/prefixes are 'x' and 'y' or 'lat' and 'lon', and use the 'spherical' variable to figure that out. If you've made your grid manually and didn't include the spherical flag, it might be trying to read in the ...

So, I'm not completely sure which one it was, but I changed my turbulent parameters from the ones that Doppio uses to the parameters used in the Wind Basin test case, and I also set Lnodal to true. This did get rid of the issues I was having.

I'll keep updating here as I learn more, but this is ...

Hello all,

I'm working on a smaller scale model (dx ~40m) with wind forcing, and am running into issues with waves in the domain. I've tried using a couple of different boundary conditions, but I'm not noticing changes from them. I'm using harmonic mixing, and am using a tnu2 = 0.32 m2 / s , and ...
