[MITgcm-support] [EXTERNAL] Tides in MITGCM

[Menemenlis, Dimitris (US 329B)]

For global or regional domains?

For regional domains, most of the forcing would come from the lateral boundary conditions, e.g.,
https://github.com/MITgcm/MITgcm/blob/master/pkg/obcs/obcs_add_tides.F

For global domains, take a look at e.g.,
https://github.com/MITgcm-contrib/llc_hires/tree/master/llc_540/tides_exp
or
https://github.com/jahn/MITgcm/tree/sal

Cheers, Dimitris

Hello,

I was wondering if MITGCM includes an explicit representation of tides (e.g., in terms of explicit tidal potentials). So far, I noticed tides are included as datasets obtained from reanalysis sources.

Best regards,
Nairita
