River forcing LtracerSrc and setting temp to 0 ?!

#1 Unread post by jivica »

Think there is a "feature" introduced in the recent ROMS related to river source temperature set to 0C even you chose not the alter ocean ambient temperature.
What I am doing is simulating only fresh water inflow using river forcing and setting source salinity but do not want to change ocean temperature.

If you set in the ocean.in that you have only 2 active tracers (temp, salt) NAT = 2 and no passive tracer NPT = 0 and then later in activate this:
LuvSrc == T
and
LtracerSrc == F T ! just use salinity and not temperature

It is still setting tracer temperature to ini_value which is 0 and introducing cold water into the ocean.

To be sure I am not outdated just svn to the latest version 904, recompiled and got the same thing/problem.
From INFO I can see it is NOT reading river_temp from the river.nc forcing file as I would expect, so that is fine.
Later in the code it sets it to 0 which it shouldn't.

Then I pulled back my old workhorse version 3.4 and changed .h *bry definition inside* and ocean.in,
used the same setup and bingo, it is just using salinity as should and not changing ambient temperature in the ocean.

Does anybody else bumped on the same bug?

Cheers
Ivica

No, but I know that if you ask for inflow without providing tracer values, you can get an unstable downwind advection scheme. My last battle with this went for six months before blowing up - I had accidentally turned off all my bio tracer river sources.

Hi Kate
I am using MPDATA in old 3.4 and the latest code
And with old all is as should be... looking into the code
to figure what/when went wrong

I think I've fixed it.
It is working now as I would expect (MP_DATA) and the problem was in step3d_t.F and pre_step3d.F
(note that "_original" is current version in roms trunk)
Shortly, indexing was (I think) wrong in the step3d_t.F and in pre_step3d.F part with source direction == 1 was missing etc..

Code: Select all

diff step3d_t.F step3d_t.F_original
