MITgcm model setup and output for " Dense water downslope flow and AABW production in a numerical model: sensitivity to horizontal and vertical resolution in the region off Cape Darnley Polynya " (Vigan Mensah, Yoshihiro Nakayama, Masakazu Fujii, Yoshifumi Nogi, and Kay I. Ohshima, Ocean Modelling , 2021). (Contents) Here it contains - code.zip (code to run this simulation at 40m vertical, 2 km horizontal resolution) - input.zip (input file required for this simulation at 40m vertical, 2 km horizontal resolution) - run40m2km.zip (model output for the control run at 40m vertical resolution and 2 km horizontal resolution for year 2008) (How to compile) - 40m1km.zip: The directory include the code and input folders needed to compile and run the model with a 40m vertical, 1km horizontal resolution. To run this simulation , After unzipping all folders: 1) Create your work directory ( thereafter called “config”) within your MITgcm directory : 2) Copy “code” into “config” 3) Then, in the MITgcm directory run the following commands > cd config > mkdir build > cd build > ../../../tools/genmake2 -of ../../../tools/build_options/<your_option_file> -mpi -mods ../code/ (the -mpi is optional) > make depend > make 4) copy the mitgcmuv file generated in build into the directory of your choice (input in our case) (How to submit a job) In input, the file run_omp_high_t1.pbs is used to submit a job for running simulation. This file may need to be modified so the commands are in accordance with the commands accepted by your supercomputer. (Note on forcing files) The era_xx folder which contains the forcing file can be found under https://ecco.jpl.nasa.gov/drive/files/Version5/Alpha The model user needs to change the path to the era_xx folder in the file input/data.exf For more info please send an email to [e-mail]
