global ocean using the cubed-sphere grid 32x32x32 with 15 levels |

================================================================= |

Specific option: |
5 |
* Use Non-Linear Free surface formulation with z* coordinate |
6 |
with real fresh-water flux. |
7 |
* Oceanic set-up on the cubed-sphere grid using the vector-invariant |
8 |
formulation. |
9 |
|
10 |
Forcing : |
11 |
use Monthly mean climatological forcing (except P-E-R, annual mean). |
12 |
same data set as global-ocean lat-long experiments but interpolated |
13 |
on CS-32 grid. |

Comments: |
16 |
* bathymetry : |
17 |
designed to be coupled to Atmospheric model, therefore includes |
18 |
most of the semi-enclosed sea (Mediterranean, Black-Sea, Red-Sea, |
19 |
Hudson Bay ...) |
20 |
bathy_cs32.bin: initial bathymetry |
21 |
h < 0 is meant to stay wet-point whatever delZ(1) is ; Consequently |
22 |
the global ocean area is not affected by the vertical resolution. |
23 |
bathy_Hmin50.bin: bathymetry file used in the current set-up |
24 |
generated from bathy_cs32.bin using matlab script mk_bathy4gcm.m |
25 |
mk_bathy4gcm.m matlab script that deepen all shallow point up to 50m. |
26 |
* global integral of E-P-R and annual mean net Q flux are zero. |
27 |
* package thSIce and bulk_forc are included but not used in the standard |
28 |
set-up. |
29 |
|
30 |
* additional forcing fields and parameter files are provided (in input.thsice) |
31 |
in order to illustrate the use of thSIce pkg. |
32 |
the output of a short run (20.iter) is given in results/output_thsice.txt |

October 1rst, 2005: |
35 |
* input.viscA4/data has been added to test biharmonic viscosity on CS-grid |
36 |
with side-drag. However, this set of parameters has only be used for |
37 |
short tests and is not recommended to begin with. |
