Ocean Modeling Discussion

Kate,

Thank you for the reply and help to clarify.

I have a question about wind rotation.

The code set_data.F has the following. Appears that the wind is rotate from (e,n)ward to (x,y)ward. Is this correct?

Thanks,

James

Hi,

In esmf_roms.F, we have the following.

CASE ('Ubar') ! 2D u-momentum
found=.TRUE.
DO j=JstrR,JendR
DO i=Istr,IendR
romsExpData(ifield,ng)%field(i,j)= &
& OCEAN(ng)%ubar(i,j,Kexp(ng))*scale
Fmin=MIN(Fmin,romsExpData(ifield,ng)%field(i,j))
Fmax=MAX(Fmax,romsExpData(ifield,ng)%field(i,j ...

Hi,

I think FORCES(ng)%Tair is defined at the 'rho' points. I am not sure about FORCES(ng)%Uwind and FORCES(ng)%Vwind. Are they defined at the 'rho' points as well? I noticed that in the forcing data (coamps_wc13_wind.nc), u,v have coordinates at the 'rho' points.

Thanks,

James
