Description
Added a new C-processing option WIND_MINUS_CURRENT to compute the effective wind forcing by subtracting surface ocean currents to input wind components in bulk_flux.F:
#ifdef WIND_MINUS_CURRENT ! ! Modify near-surface (2m or 10m) effective winds by subtracting the ! ocean surface current (J Wilkin). See: ! ! Bye, J.A.T. and J.-O. Wolff, 1999: Atmosphere-ocean momentum exchange ! in general circulation models. J. Phys. Oceanogr. 29, 671-691. ! DO j=Jstr-1,JendR DO i=Istr-1,IendR Uwind(i,j)=Uwind(i,j)- & & 0.5_r8*(u(i,j,N(ng),nrhs)+u(i+1,j,N(ng),nrhs)) Vwind(i,j)=Vwind(i,j)- & & 0.5_r8*(v(i,j,N(ng),nrhs)+v(i,j+1,N(ng),nrhs)) END DO END DO #endif
Many thanks to John Wilkin for coding and evaluating this option.
