Creating Boundary Netcdf Files

[hankseidel]

Hi,

Is there a package available to create boundary netcdf files from climatology files? Also, any documentation on using boundary files?

Thanks

Hank

There is a matlab tool out there for creating boundary conditions from a larger ROMS domain using Manu's RNT toolbox. I have put a very rough and undocumented version here. Note that you need to edit the RNT gridinfo.m file to add both the source and target ROMS domains.

...There is an also easy-to-use, compule once --> use forever FORTRAN code which does
generic extraction of perimeter from ROMS climatology file,

Just compile it, name executable "perim" and save it into your ~/bin directory, and then say

perim WS climatology.nc bounary.nc

if, for example, you want to create file containing Western and Southern boundary.
