Ocean Modeling Discussion

I also have a group of fixes to make LTRANS compatible with Penvin's ROMS_TOOLS (Currently it only works with Sea Grid), a fix in the time stepping loop to generate LTRANS output files on less than the ROMS output dt, as well as a couple others I probably can't remember right now. I also have a ...

Hi Jim - In LTRANS idt is the timestep for your LTRANS particles, so you get to decide what it is. The dt you'll have to figure out by looking at the ROMS netcdf history file, so you'll need some program that reads netcdf files, like ncview or snctools. You'll have to calculate dt from the ROMS ...

You might also try Manu's tutorials online. This saved me literally weeks of frustration:

Perhaps this should be directed at Elizabeth directly, but I thought others might like to know as well: I'm wondering which version of ROMS LTRANS was designed to interface with. I'm using the (almost current) Rutgers, which outputs variables s_w and s_rho as opposed to sc_w and sc_r which LTRANS is ...
