[MITgcm-support] Where to set boundary conditions and initial conditions ?

[liujing657949251]

Hi, Yuan Lian:


Thanks very much for your  valuable answer! It helps me a lot :)


Actually, I am eager to modifying internal waves(nonlinear) by MITgcm. But now it seems better to choose one experiment in verification directory similar to mine. And I am trying to get familiar with the model according to this method.  I hope I can get more help during studying the specific experiment. 

Best Regards,
Jing

Hi,

Could you please be more specific on the questions?

The initial conditions can be either set by reference states such as tRef and sRef in data file, and/or initial files (binary files) such as "uVelInitFile" in data file, and/or "PTRACERS_initialFile" in data.ptracers (if you are investigating passive tracers).

The boundary conditions can be set by rbcs (relaxed boundary conditions) or obcs (open boundary conditions) packages, depending on the questions you need to solve.

I think you can get more help if you specify what you are trying to simulate.

Dear all:


Sorry about my question, but I really want to know where to set the boundary conditions and initial conditions ?


Also, I am not quite sure what's the meaning of boundary conditions and initial conditions . And I could not find their specific explanation in the user manual. Could anyone tell me where it is, or offer some other matierals about this?


Thanks very much.


Best regards,
