List of ECCO2 cubed-sphere sensitivity experiments: Code Change.
cube01 : 1992-2002, no sea-ice dynamics, no surface salinity relaxation. Horizontal biharmonic viscosity: 4.7e11 m^4/s.
cube02 : 1992-2002, with sea-ice dynamics, surface salinity relaxation, and lower vertical viscosity and diffusivity. Bathymetry file changed from ver3b_filled to ver5e_filled.
cube03 : 1992-2002, same as cs510.nb.02 but with half the horizontal biharmonic viscosity: 2.4e11 m^4/s.
cube04 : 1992-1997, same as cs510.nb.03 but with correct sign for river runoff, fixed bug for sea-ice pickup files, open water albedo is .15 instead of .1, and wind stress under ice is same as that of open-water (lou:/u/menemenl/cube/cube04).
cube05 : 1992-2003, same as cs510.nb.04 but shortwave radiation and albedo have been adjusted for a more realistic sea-ice extent.
cube13 : 1992-2003, same as cs510.nb.12 but all albedos increased by 0.1.
cube14 : cs510.nb.14 : 1992-1994 same as cs510.nb.13 but with SEAICE_TEST_ICE_STRESS_1 and default seaice parameter values. Integrates OK, but produces even larger Antarctic polynyas (lou:/u/menemenl/cube/cube14).
cube25 : same as cube.24 but viscar is increased back to 1e-3.
cube26 : same as cube.25 with bug-fix to exf_bulkformulae.
cube31 : same as cube.28 but data.seaice has following
parameters default values:
SEAICE_drag = 0.002 _d 0
OCEAN_drag = 0.001 _d 0
SEAICE_waterDrag = 5.5 _d 0
SEAICE_strength = 2.75 _d +04
cube37 : 1992-2006 same as cube.36 but with
#define SEAICE_CGRID
and with default SEAICEadvScheme undefined.
cube38 : 1992-2002 same as cube.37 but
starting from WOCE climatology WGHC_(T/S)_510x6x510.bin
cube40 : 1992-2002 same as cube.38 but without
specifying net shortwave radiation swflux for open water.
Instead it is computed from net shortwave.
cube43 : 1992-2002 same as cube.40 but with bug fixes in
growth.F, i.e., treatment of EVAP, HSNOW, and AREA.
cube48 : 1992-2002 same as cube49 but with more realistic initial sea-ice
conditions taken from a PSC estimate.
cube50 : 1992-2002 same as cube49 but with SEAICEadvSnow=.true. and with more realistic initial sea-ice conditions as in cube48
cube55 : same as cube50 but with SEAICEuseFlooding=.TRUE. which
converts snow to sea ice if flooded.
cube66 : same as cube67 but with
SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY, SEAICE_VARIABLE_FREEZING_POINT,
rhonil=1027.5, [temp/salt]AdvScheme=7, convertFW2Salt=-1, LSR_ERROR=1e-6
useRealFreshWaterFlux=.TRUE., runoff_lat_inc=179*1,
SEAICE_availHeatFrac=.5, HeffFile=heff_file8, HEFF_MAX=10
useGMRedi=.TRUE., GM_background_K=200, GM_taper_scheme='ldd97'
bathyFile=GEBCO_510x6x510_ver06_dig.bin
hydrogSaltFile ='PHCS_JAN_510x6x510x50.bin'
hydrogThetaFile='PHCT_JAN_510x6x510x50.bin'
Bug: PHCT is in-situ rather than potential temperature
THETA output was converted back to potential after integration
but expected to impact regions of deep convection.
cube75 : blend #2
cube77 : same as cube75 but with SEAICE_SALINITY defined
SEAICE_salinity = 0.3,
and with era40_ecmwf_blend/cube59_GPCP forcing
cube78 : blend #3
cube79 : same as cube78 (blend3) but with
useRelativeWind=.TRUE. and SEAICE_gamma_t=259200
