upwelling example

#1 Unread post by oartal »

Hi,
My problem is the following:
I ran the upwelling example and got a file 'roms_avg.nc'. I wish work with this file, but have a doubt with the dimensions of some variables:

u[time,s_rho,eta_rho,xi_u]=[5,16,66,17]
v[time,s_rho,eta_v,xi_rho]=[5,16,65,18]
omega[time_s_w,eta_rho,xi_rho]=[5,17,66,18]

is supposed that ROMS use Arakawa-C grid and omega is to center in the grid. Then omega should be
omega[time,s_w,eta_v,xi_u]=[5,17,65,17] or not? or why omega has these dimensions?

If somebody can help me, thank you
