Options with example:
The options for ''makelmdz_fcm'' used here imply:

* '''-p mars''': the PEM will use the "mars" physics package
+
# [planet]: ''mars'' to use the Mars planet physics package;
* '''-d 64x48x54''': the PEM grid will be 64x48 in longitude x latitude, with 54 vertical levels.

# [dimensions]: ''64x48x54'' to define the grid you want to use (longitude x latitude x atmospheric layers).

In this page, we give a hopefully exhaustive enough overview of the necessary prerequisites and steps to download, compile and run a simple simulation with the PEM, set up on a Linux computer.

Installation

The PEM is downloaded alongside the LMDZ.COMMON repository of your trunk, following the same step described in the related section of Quick Install and Run Mars PCM. The Fortran code is in the following directory: trunk/LMDZ.COMMON/libf/evolution/. The two PEM programs are pem.F90 and reshape_XIOS_output.F90.

Compilation

To compile the PEM, in LMDZ.COMMON, do:

./makelmdz_fcm -arch [local] -p [planet] -d [dimensions] -j 8 pem

Options with example:

  1. [local]: root name of arch files, assuming that they have been set up for your configuration;
  2. [planet]: mars to use the Mars planet physics package;
  3. [dimensions]: 64x48x54 to define the grid you want to use (longitude x latitude x atmospheric layers).

To run the PEM, you need a dedicated reshaping tool with consistent options. To compile it, in LMDZ_COMMON, do:

./makelmdz_fcm -arch [local] -p [planet] -d [dimensions] -j 8 reshape_XIOS_output

To run the PEM, you also need a PCM working with XIOS and consistent options. To compile it, in LMDZ.COMMON, do:

./makelmdz_fcm -arch [local] -p [planet] -parallel mpi_omp -io XIOS -d [dimensions] -j 8 gcm

After compilation, the executable file can be found in the "bin" sub-directory.

Usage

To run a PEM simulation, do:

./launchPEM.sh [options]

Options:

  1. None: to start a simulation from scratch;
  2. 're': to relaunch a simulation from a starting point (interactive prompt).

The Bash file launchPEM.sh is the master script to launch the PEM chained simulation. It checks if necessary files and required options for your simulation are ok.

Requirements

To run the PEM, you can create a folder in which you need the following files:

  • your executable files for the PCM, the PEM and the reshaping tool with consistent options;
  • the xml files for XIOS which can be found in the PCM deftank folder: iodef.xml, context_lmdz_physics.xml, file_def_physics_mars.xml and field_def_physics_mars.xml;
  • the def files you want to run the PCM: run.def, callphys.def, traceur.def, etc. Be careful, do not forget to rename the PCM run.def into run_PCM.def;
  • the starting files you want to run the PCM: startfi.nc, start.nc/start1D.txt/profiles;
  • the necessary PEM files: launchPEM.sh, lib_launchPEM.sh, PCMrun.job, PEMrun.job, run_PEM.def and obl_ecc_lsp.asc;
  • the optional PEM files diagpem.def to define the PEM variables to be ouputted and startpem.nc to set the initial state of the PEM.

The PEM files can be found in the deftank folder, where a README file recaps everything.

Before a simulation, you have to set up some parameters/options:

  1. In launchPEM.sh, the user has to specify:
    • n_mars_years, n_earth_years: the number of Mars/Earth years to be simulated in total (> 0);
    • nPCM_ini: the number of initial PCM runs (>= 2);
    • nPCM: the number of PCM runs between each PEM run (>= 2, usually 2);
    • counting: the counting method for the number of years to be simulated (0 = "only PEM runs count"; any other values = "PCM runs are taken into account"). The former option is the usual one;
    • mode: the launching mode (0 = "processing scripts"; any other values = "submitting jobs"). The former option is usually used to process the script on a local machine while the latter is used to submit jobs on a supercomputer with SLURM or PBS/TORQUE.
  2. In PCMrun.job, the user has to specify:
    • the headers correspond to the ADASTRA supercomputer and should be changed for other machines and job schedulers. In case of "processing scripts" launching mode, the headers are naturally omitted.
    • The path to source the arch file should be adapted to the machine.
    • The name of the PCM executable file should be adapted.
    • The execution command should also be adapted according to the set-up.
  3. In PEMrun.job, the user has to specify:
    • The headers correspond to the ADASTRA supercomputer and should be changed for other machines and job schedulers. In case of "processing scripts" launching mode, the headers are naturally omitted.
    • The path to source the arch file should be adapted to the machine.
    • The name of the PEM and Reshaping executable files should be adapted.
    • The PEM executable can have an optional argument which should be specified according to the set-up ("--auto-exit" for SLURM and PBS/TORQUE | "" when the script is not run as a job).
  4. The user has to specify the wanted options in the def files, especially for run_PEM.def, run_PCM.def, callphys.def.
  5. The user has to provide a startfi.nc whose orbital parameters are consistent with the initial date set in run_PEM.def. The script inipem_orbit.sh can do it automatically with obl_ecc_lsp.asc.

Outputs

The PEM simulation generates the following files:

  • the usual outputs of the PCM: restartfi.nc, restart.nc, diagfi.nc, etc;
  • the XIOS outputs of the PCM, then reshaped: Xdiurnalave.nc/data2reshape*.nc/data_PCM_Y*.nc;
  • the outputs of the chained simulation: launchPEM.log, info_PEM.txt and possibly kill_launchPEM.sh;
  • the usual outputs of the PEM: "restartfi.nc, restart.nc/restart1D.txt and diagpem.nc.

During the simulation, the PCM/PEM run files are renamed conveniently and stored in the sub-directories logs (log files), starts (starting files) and diags (diagnostic files).

If you run a simulation by submitting jobs, the script kill_launchPEM.sh is automatically generated. It can be used to kill in the queue of the job scheduler the jobs related to your chained simulation.
