variables don't change at the dimension of time

[qizheng]

Dear all,

I am running a case which blows up within 3 months so I want to see the results to detect some details. But I found something that I cannot understand.

There are some variables in dia.nc and his.nc such as 'temp' and 'salt'. They have four dimensions in a format of (xi_rho,eta_rho,s_rho,ocean_time). I want to draw some surface temperature and salt figures at each ocean time steps. However, it does not change along time. Can I ask what 's the reason?

And How can I convert my variables at S coordinate to Z coordinate?

It will be very grateful if someone can answer these questions.

Best Regards

If the model is blowing up, it has to be changing in time.

Looking at the surface is looking at the highest k level. To look at other depths, there are codes for computing that in matlab, python, etc. What are you using now?

Dear Kate,

Thank you for your reply.

I am using matlab to plot figures. I chose a s-rho (maximum number =32 for my case) and let stemp=squeeze(temp (:,:,32,:)) . Then I plotted stemp at each ocean_time, but the figures are totally same. I am wondering if I need some key calculations?


Best regards
