[MITgcm-support] ECCOv4 error message

[Gael Forget]

Hi An,

Great that you want to help! 

The “confusing” part is what I am working on right now as part https://github.com/MITgcm/MITgcm/pull/282 <https://github.com/MITgcm/MITgcm/pull/282> [WIP PR].

It’s strange — you should have gotten an email from GitHub about this a few days ago when I added your handle in the opening comment. Anyway … the [WIP] PR an adequate forum to discuss this openly and in coordinate fashion.

Cheers,
Gael

Gael mentioned he had implemented it during the last ECCO meeting , but I read through the code and found it a bit still too confusing to make it past the test phase.  I sent an email asking for an example case (dated 19/feb), but perhaps it didn't get to Gael.

I'd like to ask you very quick on this, as I recalled in your presentation at the ECCO meeting that you were able to run pkg/flt with pkg/exch2.  I have looked now into the latest code for pkg/flt and see that you have implemented an if-def block DEVEL_FLT_EXCH2 that will allow for pkg/exch2.  I wanted to ask if you have an example of the code and input+namelist dir for an llc90 set up that could help me understand more how you can set the global initial_flt_position file (instead of the tile-dependent pickups) as well as what run-time flags you might need to get exch2 to work within flt?
