Several idealized experiments and examples are preconfigured and can be easily
chosen and modified using two alternative configuration methods based on Fortran90 or Python.
Prerequisites for the installation is a Fortran 90 compiler and the Lapack library,
and for the Fortran front the NetCDF-library (since IO is realized mainly using the NetCDF format).

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.
