Function/Subroutine Documentation

subroutine seamount_initialization/seamount_initialize_topography(D, G, param_file, max_depth)

Initialization of topography.

Parameters:

• g :: [in] The dynamic horizontal grid type

• d :: [out] Ocean bottom depth [Z ~> m]

• param_file :: [in] Parameter file structure

• max_depth :: [in] Maximum ocean depth [Z ~> m]

Call to:

mdl

Called from:

mom_fixed_initialization::mom_initialize_topography

subroutine seamount_initialization/seamount_initialize_thickness(h, depth_tot, G, GV, US, param_file, just_read)

Initialization of thicknesses. This subroutine initializes the layer thicknesses to be uniform.

Parameters:

• g :: [in] The ocean’s grid structure.

• gv :: [in] The ocean’s vertical grid structure.

• us :: [in] A dimensional unit scaling type

• h :: [out] The thickness that is being initialized [Z ~> m]

• depth_tot :: [in] The nominal total depth of the ocean [Z ~> m]

• param_file :: [in] A structure indicating the open file to parse for model parameter values.

• just_read :: [in] If true, this call will only read parameters without changing h.

Call to:

mdl mom_error_handler::mom_mesg regrid_consts::regridding_rho regrid_consts::regridding_sigma

subroutine seamount_initialization/seamount_initialize_temperature_salinity(T, S, h, G, GV, US, param_file, just_read)

Initial values for temperature and salinity.

Parameters:

• g :: [in] Ocean grid structure

• gv :: [in] Vertical grid structure

• t :: [out] Potential temperature [C ~> degC]

• s :: [out] Salinity [S ~> ppt]

• h :: [in] Layer thickness [Z ~> m]

• us :: [in] A dimensional unit scaling type

• param_file :: [in] Parameter file structure

• just_read :: [in] If true, this call will only read parameters without changing T & S.
