Python Ocean Model 2.0 (pyOM2)
Contents
Introduction
pyOM2 is a simple and easy to use numerical circulation ocean model to configure and to integrate idealized and realistic configurations.
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
Source code as tar ball
- pyOM2 installed on lightweight 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
For installation details refer to the 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.
Here is an example of a vertical shear instability in a 2D non-hydrostatic configuration using the Graphical User Interface
Realistic Configurations
a 4x4 deg global ocean model
4/3x4/3 deg North Atlantic regional model
