Model Configurations

In MITgcm.jl, a model configuration is represented as a MITgcm_config. Model parameters are handled as ordered dictionaries and stored as TOML files. Standard model configurations are readily supported.

MITgcm_config

The data structure that enables MITgcm.jl is called MITgcm_config.

MITgcm.MITgcm_config — Type

MITgcm_config()

Concrete type of AbstractModelConfig for MITgcm (as part of the ClimateModels.jl interface for MITgcm) which contains

    model :: String = "MITgcm"
    configuration :: String = ""
    inputs :: OrderedDict{Any,Any} = OrderedDict{Any,Any}()
    outputs :: OrderedDict{Any,Any} = OrderedDict{Any,Any}()
    channel :: Channel{Any} = Channel{Any}(10) 
    folder :: String = tempdir()
    ID :: UUID = UUIDs.uuid4()

and can be constructed using keywords as follows

unknown_config=MITgcm_config(configuration="unknown")

Model Parameters

Model parameters can be stored as a TOML file, and represented as a nested OrderedDic.

Global ECCO Configuration

Global ocean model configurations used in NASA's ECCO ocean state estimation program.

OCCA2 : Forget, 2024 (under review).

Warning

Running these solutions requires at least 16 cores (preferably 96) and downloading forcing fields (96G at least). To try with a smaller model solution, see Verification Experiments.

Verification Experiments

The MITgcm/verification sub-folder of the MITgcm source code provides a suite of small model configurations, often used by model developers for testing.

To list of these model configurations (as installed) is provided by verification_experiments.

ves=verification_experiments()
[ve.configuration for ve in ves]

8-element Vector{String}:
 "MLAdjust"
 "advect_cs"
 "advect_xy"
 "aim.5l_cs"
 "flt_example"
 "hs94.cs-32x32x5"
 "tutorial_global_oce_biogeo"
 "tutorial_held_suarez_cs"

They can be used via a MITgcm_config as follows.

MITgcm_config(configuration="MLAdjust")

  ID            = 7cbbf16b-cc9c-48ce-9464-e0a5f96b90e6
  model         = MITgcm
  configuration = MLAdjust
  run folder    = /tmp/7cbbf16b-cc9c-48ce-9464-e0a5f96b90e6
