Example: Labrador Sea Region with Sea-Ice |
2 |
========================================= |
3 |
|
4 |
This example sets up a small (20x16x23) Labrador Sea experiment |
5 |
coupled to a dynamic thermodynamic sea-ice model. |
6 |
A brief description of the sea-ice model is in "seaice.ps". |
7 |
|
8 |
The domain of integration spans 280E to 320E and 46N to 78N. |
9 |
Horizontal grid spacing is 2 degrees. |
10 |
The 23 vertical levels and the bathymetry file |
11 |
bathyFile = 'bathy.labsea' |
12 |
are obtained from the the 2-degree ECCO configuration. |
13 |
|
14 |
Integration is initialized from annual-mean Levitus climatology |
15 |
hydrogThetaFile = 'LevCli_temp.labsea' |
16 |
hydrogSaltFile = 'LevCli_salt.labsea' |
17 |
|
18 |
Surface salinity relaxation is to the monthly mean Levitus climatology |
19 |
saltClimFile = 'SSS.labsea' |
20 |
|
21 |
Forcing files are a 1979-1999 monthly climatology computed from the |
22 |
NCEP reanalysis (see pkg/seaice/SEAICE_FFIELDS.h for units and signs) |
23 |
uwindFile = 'u10m.labsea79' # 10-m zonal wind |
24 |
vwindFile = 'v10m.labsea79' # 10-m meridional wind |
25 |
atempFile = 'tair.labsea1979' # 2-m air temperature |
26 |
aqhFile = 'qa.labsea1979' # 2-m specific humidity |
27 |
lwfluxFile = 'flo.labsea1979' # longwave radiation |
28 |
swfluxFile = 'fsh.labsea1979' # shortwave radiation |
29 |
precipFile = 'prate.labsea1979' # precipitation |
30 |
evapFile = 'evap.labsea1979' # evaporation |
31 |
|

33 |
Using testscript to test sea-ice code |
34 |
===================================== |
35 |
|
36 |
Running the testscript experiment: |
37 |
cd verification |
38 |
./testscript -force lab_sea |
39 |
The default experiment is Experiment 8, below. |
40 |
It uses pkg/gmredi, pkg/kpp, pkg/seaice, and pkg/exf. |
41 |
|
42 |
Note that fairly large differences in accuracy occur across different |
43 |
platforms. For example, testscript comparisons between g77 (Linux) |
44 |
and f77 (SGI) generated output gives: |

Instructions for running Experiment 1 |
120 |
===================================== |
121 |
|
122 |
This is a 1-cpu, 10-hour integration used to make sure that all |
123 |
the files are available and that the sea-ice model compiles and |
124 |
runs. The reading of atmospheric forcing files and the computation |
125 |
of open-water bulk fluxes are carried out within pkg/seaice. |
126 |
|
127 |
To run Experiment 1: |
128 |
cd ../../../verification/lab_sea/input |
129 |
ln -sf DATA.10hours data |
130 |
ln -sf DATA.SEAICE.adi data.seaice |
131 |
mitgcmuv_1 >&! output.txt |
132 |
mkdir exp1 |
133 |
mv *tave.0000000010.data exp1 |
134 |
|
135 |
Use matlab script lookat_exp1.m to compare the output |
136 |
of exp1 with that from release1_p10 sea-ice code: |
137 |
cd ../../../verification/lab_sea/matlab |
138 |
matlab |
139 |
lookat_exp1 |
140 |
|
141 |
|
142 |
Instructions for running Experiment 2 |
143 |
===================================== |
144 |
|
145 |
This is a 1-cpu test of the LSR solver. The solution is |
146 |
compared to that of experiment 1, which used the ADI solver. |
147 |
|
148 |
To run Experiment 2: |
149 |
cd ../../../verification/lab_sea/input |
150 |
ln -sf DATA.10hours data |
151 |
ln -sf DATA.SEAICE.lsr data.seaice |
152 |
mitgcmuv_1 >&! output.txt |
153 |
mkdir exp2 |
154 |
mv *tave.0000000010.data exp2 |
155 |
|
156 |
Use matlab script lookat_exp2.m to compare |
157 |
the output of exp2 to that of exp1: |
158 |
cd ../../../verification/lab_sea/matlab |
159 |
matlab |
160 |
lookat_exp2 |
161 |
|
162 |
|
163 |
Instructions for running Experiment 3 |
164 |
===================================== |
165 |
|
166 |
This is a test of periodic boundary conditions for LSR |
167 |
and ADI solvers. The domain has a flat bottom and |
168 |
is periodic both in the x and the y directions. |
169 |
All forcing files are null or constant (u10m = v10m = 5 m/s). |
170 |
|
171 |
To run Experiment 3: |
172 |
cd ../../../verification/lab_sea/input |
173 |
ln -sf DATA.1hour data |
174 |
ln -sf DATA.SEAICE.testadi data.seaice |
175 |
mitgcmuv_1 >&! output.txt |
176 |
mkdir exp3a |
177 |
mv *tave.0000000001.data exp3a |
178 |
ln -sf DATA.SEAICE.testlsr data.seaice |
179 |
mitgcmuv_1 >&! output.txt |
180 |
mkdir exp3b |
181 |
mv *tave.0000000001.data exp3b |
182 |
|
183 |
Use matlab script lookat_exp3.m to compare |
184 |
the output of exp2 to that of exp1: |
185 |
cd ../../../verification/lab_sea/matlab |
186 |
matlab |
187 |
lookat_exp3 |
188 |
|
189 |
If the dynamic ice solvers are correct, they should converge to a |
190 |
constant solution. The tests above show that both the ADI and the LSR |
191 |
solver are unable to handle periodic domains and therefore that they |
192 |
cannot be "correctly" parallelized. |
193 |
|
194 |
|
195 |
Instructions for running Experiment 4 |
196 |
===================================== |
197 |
|
198 |
This is a 2-cpu, 10-hour integration used to test |
199 |
tile edges for sea-ice dynamic solvers. |
200 |
|
201 |
To run Experiment 4: |
202 |
cd ../../../verification/lab_sea/input |
203 |
ln -sf DATA.10hours data |
204 |
ln -sf DATA.SEAICE.adi data.seaice |
205 |
mpirun -np 2 mitgcmuv_2x1 |
206 |
mkdir exp4 |
207 |
mv *tave.0000000010.data exp4 |
208 |
|
209 |
Use the matlab script lookat_exp4.m to compare |
210 |
the 2-cpu output to that of exp1: |
211 |
cd ../../../verification/lab_sea/matlab |
212 |
matlab |
213 |
lookat_exp4 |
214 |
|
215 |
The inaccuracy at the tile boundary can be decreased by increasing |
216 |
NPSEUDO in data.seaice at the expense of computation time. |
217 |
Also as sea-ice ages (thickens) the difference at the tiles becomes |
218 |
increasingly small. For solver pkg/seaice/adi.F a value of NPSEUDO=10 |
219 |
appears adequate for forward integrations but cannot be used for sea-ice |
220 |
adjoint model. Work is underway to fix this problem. |
221 |
|
222 |
|
223 |
Instructions for running Experiment 5 |
224 |
===================================== |
225 |
|
226 |
This is a 2-cpu, 2-year, test integration. It illustrates |
227 |
convention used by seaice_get_forcing.F for multi-year forcing. |
228 |
|
229 |
To run Experiment 5: |
230 |
cd ../../../verification/lab_sea/input |
231 |

242 |
|
243 |
Use the matlab script lookat_exp5.m to compare |
244 |

245 |
cd ../../../verification/lab_sea/matlab |
246 |

251 |
to look anything like the data. |

297 |
===================================== |
298 |
|
299 |
This is the default experiment which is executed by |
300 |
verification/testscript. It is a 1-cpu, 10-hour integration |
