User applications that are not distributed with the ROMS source code are invited here.
Most users configuring a typical application of the forward simulation model will need to edit only the few files described below. For so-called realistic applications of particular coastal regions or open ocean basins, most of the work in configuring the model is actually in the creation of the various input netcdf files.
CBLAST
Configuration and input files for a model of the southeast New England shelf during the ONR Coupled Boundary Layers and Air-Sea Transfer (CBLAST) experiment are provided here as an example of how to configure realistic applications with ROMS 3.0.
The changes to the overall code structure with the introduction of ROMS 3.0 make it straightforward to confine application-specific options to a small number of files maintained separately from the central code. This restructure means users can regularly update their central code, adding newly developed features and fixing reported bugs, without upsetting personal options that configure the code for a specific project. It also allows for working on more than one project without having separately maintained code stems.
The files required to configure and run ROMS 3.0 for CBLAST are available from www.myroms.org at the Datasets link on the left navigation panel (under the subheading Software), or follow this link [1].
A brief description of the files follows:
cblast.h
ocean_cblast.in
The ocean_cblast.in file has relative paths to input files that assumes the following directory. You can adapt this to your own requirements. Our choice of directory hierarchy anticipates other applications with the Adjoint and 4DVAR codes for model sensitivity and data assimilation studies which would require distinct cblast.h files in each subdirectory (all controlled by a master driver script).
A description of the model configuration and results from the application of the model to data acquired during the 2002 CBLAST field season are described in:
Wilkin, J., 2006: The summertime heat budget and circulation of southeast New England shelf waters, Journal of Physical Oceanography, 36(11), 1997-2011.
