Creating MITGCM Initial condition¶

mkMITgcmIC¶

Generate initial conditions for MITgcm from a CF-compliant Netcdf data It assume that the levels are in meters and is from top to bottom

Usage:

mkMITgcmIC [OPTIONS]

Options:

  --varnm TEXT        Name of the variable in the input file  \[required]
  --input TEXT        Input can be:

                       1. A NetCDF file.

                       2. A valid cdo option which will generate a NetCDF
                       file.

                       e.g. "-mergetime input1.nc input2.nc input3.nc"
                       \[required]
  --nx INTEGER        Number of points in x-direction  \[required]
  --ny INTEGER        Number of points in y-direction  \[required]
  --nml FILE          Path to the MITgcm `data` namelist file  \[default:
                      data]
  --mitgrid FILE      Path to the MITgcm grid file  \[default:
                      tile001.mitgrid]
  --timestep INTEGER  Timestep at which data to be used for initial condition
                      \[default: 1]
  --ovarnm TEXT       Name of the variable in the filename.

                      e.g. <ovarnm>_ini.bin. If None provided it will use the
                      <varnm>
  --addc FLOAT        Add a constant to the input field  \[default: 0.0]
  --mulc FLOAT        Multiply a constant to the input field  \[default: 1.0]
  --help              Show this message and exit.
