LAB60 is numerical configuration of the NEMO 3.6 ocean sea-ice model with 1/60 degree horizontal resolution in the Labrador Sea. We use 2 adaptive nests (AGRIF) within our parent 1/4 degree regional domain. The first nest is within the North Atlantic subpolar gyre and has 1/12 degree resolution while the final nest is at 1/60. Our simulation starts in 2002 and will extend until present times; at the time of this posting the simulation has finished the 2010 year. We include the FORTRAN code that has been slightly modified from the original NEMO 3.6 version (primarily passive tracers), as well as the assorted namelists and other files required to produce and run this simulation.
