<<TableOfContents()>>

== Introduction ==


pyOM2.0 (Python Ocean Model) is a numerical circulation ocean model which was written for
educational purpose. It is meant to be a simple and easy to use numerical
tool to configure and to integrate idealized and realistic numerical simulations of the ocean
in Boussinesq approximation.

Features are:

* Cartesian or pseudo-spherical coordinate systems

* Non-hydrostatic configurations

* several energetically consistent parameterisations

* Fortran and Python front end

* Graphical User Interface


Fortran and Python version are based on the identical Fortran90
code which is fully parallelized based on the MPI-library to enhance performance.


=== Resources ===

 * [[attachment:pyOM2.pdf|Documentation]]

 * Source code as [[attachment:pyOM2.1.0.tar.gz|tar ball]]

 * pyOM2 installed on small Debian system as Virtual box client

== Prerequisites and Installation ==


Prerequisites for the Fortran front are
Fortran 90 compiler, Lapack and NetCDF library


Prerequisites for the Python front end is Python and
the module numpy, several other modules can be used to provide
a graphical user interface, Netcdf IO, etc

=== Installation ===

For installation details look at [[attachment:pyOM2.pdf|Documentation]]


== Sample Configurations ==

Several idealized experiments and examples are preconfigured and can be easily
chosen and modified using two alternative configuration methods based on Fortran90 or Python.

Python Ocean Model 2.0 (pyOM2)

Introduction

pyOM2.0 (Python Ocean Model) is a numerical circulation ocean model which was written for educational purpose. It is meant to be a simple and easy to use numerical tool to configure and to integrate idealized and realistic numerical simulations of the ocean in Boussinesq approximation.

Features are:

* Cartesian or pseudo-spherical coordinate systems

* Non-hydrostatic configurations

* several energetically consistent parameterisations

* Fortran and Python front end

* Graphical User Interface

Fortran and Python version are based on the identical Fortran90 code which is fully parallelized based on the MPI-library to enhance performance.
