An idealized experiment is designed using ROMS to investigate the SST response to an idealized TC. The model domain is a rectangular area, and it is set to be land with a 500km width from the left (western) boundary, the other three sides are open boundaries. There is no background velocity. Horizontally uniform temperature and salinity fields a specified for the whole domain. The initial temperature and salinity profiles are from buoy data. There is no lateral boundary forcing in this experiment. The wind forcing is imposed using a Rankine vortex. The TC center moves from the east boundary the to west boundary along the middle line of the domain. How can I set the fllowing Lateral Boundary Condition in ocean.in? Is it need to set a spin-up time for this experiment?
Thank you for taking the time to read this issue.
