Hi, all.
I would like to release tracers at a certain time after model initialization (just like to release floats at Ft0 after initialization), but I dont know how to do that. Would there be a way to realize that?
Welcome to any thoughts and ideas, thanks
Release passive tracers at a certain time instead of begining
Re: Release passive tracers at a certain time instead of begining
The only way to do this is to stop the model, add the passive dye to the last history file, and restart with the modified file as initial conditions.

Re: Release passive tracers at a certain time instead of begining
Hi,
I had a similar issue some time ago, releasing a passive tracer into operational simulations at t = t0 + 1 day. I solved this by modifying some code in step3d_t.F, following the suggestions given in https://www.myroms.org/forum/viewtopic. ... 969#p22969.
Best regards,
Marc

Depending on what you're trying to achieve, passive tracers can also be introduced via rivers. And you can adjust their concentration to only release at a certain time.
