Ocean Modeling Discussion

Department of Water Resources has two jobs in the Delta Modeling Section with nearly identical listings. They have the capacity to be anywhere from entry level to mid-level. These are interesting posts, investigating the future of the Sacramento San Joaquin Delta under sea level rise, effects of res...

I have got similar errors a few weeks ago and it was due to stackspace exhaustion. I added -heap-arrays to the fortran compiler and it solved the issue. I'm not sure if this is your case, but if you don't see anything wrong with the code, it may be something worth trying. There is a post online expl...

I am also doing the same calculation. I believe you can output 'pm' and 'pn' from average or history nc files. Did you check mass conservation for one grid cell?

Just wondering if anyone knows which advection scheme is better for preserving vertical density gradient in stratified flow? I am using TS_U3HADVECTION and TS_C4VADVECTION, and it seems that they are not doing a great job.

It seems that the new version of Matlab(2012a onward) has a function 'minvtran' to do the job.

It is true that the dye may re-enter the domain after it's flushed out. I think a practical way to deal with it is to define residence time at each location as the time it takes for the dye concentration to FIRST go below 1/e of the initial value. The dye might get re-entrained back into the domain,...
