Hello everyone,
I am running a test, and the surface velocity in the ROMS result file is obviously too large compared with hycom.
roms result:
hycom data:
Then I output uwind and vwind in his file, and compared with the input wind field of 10m, the output uwind of roms is also too large.
roms:
GFS:
Is that normal? Is my excessive surface flow a problem with the wind field?
I defined bulk_fluxes to calculate wind stress. I saw on the forum that the wind stress calculated by bulk_fluxes would be too large. Is this the reason?
this is my define file:
log file:
too large surface velocity

Re: too large surface velocity
Judging from your plots the geometry of your grids is simple east-west rectangular coordinates. But the log reports a range of values for angler from -90 degrees to 270 degrees:
Grid 01:
(Values are in radians)
You might be unwittingly rotating your winds.
Moreover, for Grid 02 you have
which suggests everything gets rotated by -90 degrees.
Grid 01:
Code: Select all
GET_GRID_NF90 - angle between XI-axis and EAST: angler
(Grid = 01, File: /home/roms/input/NH_grid.nc)
(Min = -1.57079633E+00 Max = 4.71238359E+00)
