how to set tide_Pamp and tide_Pphase

[xiaozhu557]

I want to add the body force to calculate the potential tide. But I don't know how to set the input file for the variables tide_Pamp and tide_Pphase, especially for the tide_Pphase. Any one can give me any suggestion?

Thank you so much.

Paul Budgell set me up with the files here. Hope it helps.

Hi Kate and all,

Could you explain why do we need to input tide_Pphase and tide_Pamp for ROMS, even if we have added the define POT_tide? What is the role for those codes in POT_tide define? As far as I know, I do not need to prepare any input file for the tidal body forces in FVCOM model.

Thanks.
