[MITgcm-support] HELP: mitgcm tide

[Daquan Guo]

Hi,

I am working on a regional circulation simulation with MITgcm and found
that cases with and without tides show a big difference.

I am wondering if someone has experience that when including the tides into
the model, what kind of parameters should be modified accordingly, such as
viscosity, diffusivity parameters?

Also as l leaned from the MITgcm mannual, the KPP scheme is using a
constant value to estimate the mixing caused by internal waves. In my
opinion, when adding tides into the model, this term should be reduced
because the baroclinic tides could account for most of the internal waves,
but I could find where to modify this term. Does anyone konw how to deal
with it when adding tides?
