Seaice-only verification experiment in idealized periodic channel with ice thickness distribution (otherwise very similar to offline_exf_seaice): CPP-flag SEAICE_ITD is defined ----------------------------------------------------------------- 1) main forward experiment (code, input) Re-entrant zonally periodic channel (80x42 grid points) with just level (Nr=1) uniform resolution (5.km, 10m), solid Southern boundary with triangular shape coastline ("bathy_3c.bin") Use seaice (dynamics & thermodynamics from pkg/seaice) with EXF (see data.pkg) with initial ice thickness ranging from nearly 0 m in the "south" to over 7 m in the "north"(but no snow) (HeffFile = 'heff_quartic.bin', in "input/data.seaice") Initial seaice concentration is 100 % everywhere (AreaFile='const100.bin', in "input/data.seaice") and seaice is initially at rest. Ridging is computed according to Thorndyke et al (1975) and Hibler (1980). Ice strength P is computed following Rothrock (1975) At runtime turn off time-stepping in 'data', PARM01, using: momStepping = .FALSE., saltStepping = .FALSE., tempAdvection=.FALSE., Forcing: None of the forcing vary with time; the input files have been generated using the python script "input/gendata.py". SST relaxation field is uniform in X, parabolic function of Y with maximum close to Southern boundary. Atmospheric air temp is uniform in Y, and only vary with X (~sin(2.pi.x/Lx)) with an amplitude of 4.K ('tair_4x.bin'); Uses constant Relative Humidity (70%, file 'qa70_4x.bin') constant and uniform downward shortwave (100.W/m2, 'dsw_100.bin'), downward longwave (250.W/m^2, 'dlw_250.bin'), zonal wind (10.m/s, 'windx.bin'), no meridional wind, no precip. Ocean surface currents comes from a 3 levels ocean-only run (without seaice) using the same wind forcing (uVel_3c0.bin, vVel_3c0.bin) (matlab script: "input/getdata.m") 2) other (secondary) experiments (with the same executable) a) input.lipscomb07: seaice-dynamics only with ridging scheme following Lipscomb et al (2007); uses same forcing as main forward experiment, without thermodynamic forcing (usePW79thermodynamics=.FALSE., SEAICEpartFunc = 1, SEAICEredistFunc = 1, in input.dyn_lsr/data.seaice). b) input.thermo: seaice-dynamics and thermodynamics with ridging, but ice strength is computed following Hibler (1979): P = 27.5e4*(h*c)*exp(-20*(1-c))
