[MITgcm-support] 3D forcing for the momentum equations

[Shevchenko, Igor]

Hi Paul,

Thank you! I will look into it.

Best regards,
Igor

Hi Igor,

Yes, you can use (possibly with a little modification) the MITgcm RBCS scheme.  The scheme gives the user the ability to force any or all points in the domain.  This is a good place to start:

8.3.2. RBCS Package — MITgcm checkpoint68f-7-g30a27da28 documentation - Read the Docs<https://mitgcm.readthedocs.io/en/latest/phys_pkgs/rbcs.html>
8.3.2. RBCS Package¶ 8.3.2.1. Introduction¶. pkg/rbcs provides the flexibility to relax fields (temperature, salinity, ptracers, horizontal velocities) in any 3-D location, thus can be used to implement a sponge layer, or a “source” anywhere in the domain, among other uses.. For a field (\(T\)) at every grid point the tendency is modified so that:

Dear MITgcm Community,

Does MITgcm provide a mechanism to inject a 3D forcing field (not just a surface one) into the momentum equations?

Best regards,
Igor
