272 |
|
N_{y} = 120\times144$ horizontal grid points with four open boundaries |
273 |
|
along the four egdes of the domain, the simplest way of specifying the |
274 |
|
boundary points in \code{data.obcs} is: |
275 |
|
\begin{verbatim} |
276 |
|
OB_Ieast = 144*-1, |
277 |
|
# or OB_Ieast = 144*120, |

OB_Jnorth = 120*-1, |

281 |
|
OB_Jsouth = 120*1, |
282 |
|
\end{verbatim} |

If only the first $50$ grid points of the southern boundary are |
284 |
|
boundary points: |
285 |
|
\begin{verbatim} |
286 |
