¶ This type is used to exchange information related to the MEKE calculations.
- Type fields:
%
meke
[real(:,:),allocatable] :: Vertically averaged eddy kinetic energy [L2 T-2 ~> m2 s-2].%
gm_src
[real(:,:),allocatable] :: MEKE source due to thickness mixing (GM) [R Z L2 T-3 ~> W m-2].%
mom_src
[real(:,:),allocatable] :: MEKE source from lateral friction in the momentum equations [R Z L2 T-3 ~> W m-2].%
gme_snk
[real(:,:),allocatable] :: MEKE sink from GME backscatter in the momentum equations [R Z L2 T-3 ~> W m-2].%
kh
[real(:,:),allocatable] :: The MEKE-derived lateral mixing coefficient [L2 T-1 ~> m2 s-1].%
kh_diff
[real(:,:),allocatable] :: Uses the non-MEKE-derived thickness diffusion coefficient to diffuse MEKE [L2 T-1 ~> m2 s-1].%
rd_dx_h
[real(:,:),allocatable] :: The deformation radius compared with the grid spacing [nondim]. Rd_dx_h is copied from VarMix_CS.%
ku
[real(:,:),allocatable] :: The MEKE-derived lateral viscosity coefficient [L2 T-1 ~> m2 s-1]. This viscosity can be negative when representing backscatter from unresolved eddies (see Jansen and Held, 2014).%
au
[real(:,:),allocatable] :: The MEKE-derived lateral biharmonic viscosity coefficient [L4 T-1 ~> m4 s-1].%
khth_fac
[real] :: Multiplier to map Kh(MEKE) to KhTh [nondim].%
khtr_fac
[real] :: Multiplier to map Kh(MEKE) to KhTr [nondim].%
backscatter_ro_pow
[real] :: Power in Rossby number function for backscatter [nondim].%
backscatter_ro_c
[real] :: Coefficient in Rossby number function for backscatter [nondim].
