SPFLAME)

SPFLAME is another re-implementation of the famous MOM code. The Small and Portable code is the basis for a framework of several numerical ocean modeling projects named Family of Linked Atlantic Model Experiments (FLAME). To obtain the source code of SPFLAME

A FORTRAN90 compiler, a MPI (1.0) library (for the parallelized version only) and a recent version of the NetCDF library will be needed. SPFLAME is known and preconfigured to run on NEC SX6/8, IBM pSeries/AIX, Linux with Intel (IA32/IA64) compiler and many other unix platforms.

Forcing datasets needed for generation of realistic setups and specific model configuration for SPFLAME are provided on request.
