[MITgcm-support] oscillating mean flow

[Mark Inall]

Hi,

Does anyone have experience with setting up an oscillating mean flow - either in 2D or in a narrow channel - with rotation?

Presently I'm running an oscillating flow over a bump based on the internal wave verification setup, and I want to add a mean flow - is the best way to impose a barotropic pressure gradient across the section and wait for a geostrophic balance??

Any thoughts/help much appreciated.

Thanks,

Mark.
