[MITgcm-support] Forcing the model using some atmospheric data

[Georges Djoumna]

Dear all,
I am doing a lake simulation, without ice.
I would like to force the model by using, air temperature, air  
humidity, wind speed, and solar radiation.

I am wondering which package I have to use. I've tried the Bulk  
formula package, it seems that this package needs the  
thermodynamic-seaice package, but I doing simulation in a no ice  
framework.

  I've tried to use the external forcing package, I have a problem  
with the Calendar package with data.cal

#
# *******************
# Calendar Parameters
# *******************
  &CAL_NML
  TheCalendar='model',
  startDate_1=0,
  startDate_2=000000,
  &

In fact the atmospheric data I am using are given every 150 seconds  
and the code is not reading binary file containing those data


Thanks
