How to set up

  • https://github.com/GEOS-ESM/GEOSgcm#run-the-gcm use gcm_setup, is same as for the uncoupled model, please see ⬇️ for differences.

  • Note following that are relevant to coupled model:

     ...
     ...
     Do you wish to run the COUPLED Ocean/Sea-Ice Model? (Default: NO or FALSE)
     YES
    
     Choose an Ocean Model: (Default: MOM5)
     MOM5
     _or_
     MOM6
    
     Enter the Ocean Lat/Lon Horizontal Resolution: IM JM (Default: 360 210)
    
     Enter the Ocean Model Vertical Resolution: LM (Default: 50)
    
     ...
     ...
    
     Enter the directory (/filename) of the HISTORY.AGCM.rc.tmpl to use
     (To use HISTORY.AGCM.rc.tmpl from current build, Type:  Current         )
     -------------------------------------------------------------------------
     Hit ENTER to use Default Location: (HISTORY.AOGCM.rc.tmpl)
    
  • If the horizontal and/or vertical resolutions are not the default values, it is the user's burden to provide all other files and resources for a functional model run. Available resolutions are:

    • MOM5: c90x72 atmosphere, 360x200x50 ocean
    • MOM6: c90x72 atmosphere, 360x210x50 ocean

How to run

In the experiment directory, use gcm_run.j (this step is same as for the uncoupled model).
