[MITgcm-support] Surface Deep Convection Tutorial

[Stroman, Ashley]

Hello.

I am trying to run the gendata script within the surface deep convection tutorial and I have two questions.

1.) When I run the script in Matlab, I get an error output that says

BLAS loading error:
mkl.so: failed to map segment from shared object: Cannot allocate
memory

Error in gendata (line 41)
xc=x'*ones(1,ny); yc=ones(nx,1)*y;

Is there a way to rewrite this part of the code so it won’t crash on me?

2.) In the script, what is var calculating, and what what does the [1:1000) and /1000 come from?

Thanks.

Best,
Ashley Stroman
