% Generate example tidal input files.

% Tidal input files are real*4 IEEE big-endian binary
% with dimenstion OBlength * tidalComponents,
% where OBlength is the length of the open boundary
% and tidalComponents is the number of tidal components
% specified in OBCS_PARAMS.h.

% OB[N,S,E,W][am,ph]File :: Files with boundary conditions,
%                           the letter combinations mean:
%              N/S/E/W   :: northern/southern/eastern/western boundary
%              am/ph     :: tidal amplitude (m/s) / phase (s)

% Tidal periods are specified using variable tidalPeriod in data.obcs
% Tidal amplitude is the maximum tidal velocity in m/s.
% Tidal phase indicates time in s of maximum positive tide relative
% to model startTime=0.

% readbin.m and writebin.m are in MITgcm/utils/matlab/cs_grid/read_cs
