[MITgcm-support] Open Boundary Conditions in MITgcm

[Martin Losch]

Hi Jody,

> I keep thinking that it would be worthwhile for someone with coding chops to add to obcs package the option to specify lateral boundary conditions, perhaps even reading them from a file.  I'd be interested to hear how other people do it.  
There is code to read obcs-values from files (it's not really documented, as usual), you turn it on with 
#define ALLOW_OBCS_PRESCRIBE
and (in data.obcs)
 useOBCSprescribe = .true., 
The example exp4 uses this code (and it also works with exf). 

Or do you mean something else?
