[MITgcm-support] How to set the OB files when restart the simulation

[Martin Losch]

Hi,

the model always tracks time in seconds and steps since 0 (zeroth time step, not nIter0 which can be > 0 for restarts). Based on this reference it computes which time slice to read from a file, so you don’t need to worry about changing your obcs file (nor any forcing file), when you restart the model.

When I restart my simulation from 12 h, do I need to re-specify my OBEuFile in data.obcs? I mean, will the model pick up the OBEuFile from 12 h automatically, or from the very beginning of the file?
