Examples of POP and I-EMIC runs

This repository contains OMUSE run scripts that illustrate various couplings between the POP ocean model and the I-EMIC implicit ocean model. In addition to this it has a number of utility scripts for plotting and setting up the models. Data for a number of I-EMIC grids is included as well as an initial POP parameter namelist.

Prerequisites

In order to run the examples OMUSE must be installed with the I-EMIC and POP community codes enabled.

Run files

• run_iemic_continuation.py: Continuation run for I-EMIC. The final equilibrium solution is written out.
• run_pop.py: sets up a configuration for POP where both the grid and forcings are taken from the I-EMIC (default) setup. The long term evolution should be very close to the I-EMIC equilibrium solution.
• run_pop_iemic.py: Restart POP from a I-EMIC equilibrium state.
• run_pop_pop.py: Restart POP from a POP state at a different resolution.
• run_pop_restart.py: Restart POP from a previous POP state.

Utility files

• iemic.py: Utility functions for interfacing with the OMUSE I-EMIC interface and I-EMIC state files.
• pop.py: Utility functions for interfacing with the OMUSE POP interface and POP state files.
• pop_iemic.py: Utility functions that implement the coupling between POp and I-EMIC.

POP input files

• pop_in: Detailed mixing scenario.
• pop_in_simp: Simplified mixing scenario.
