LMDZ.GENERIC directory layout and contents
From Planets
This page describes the directory structure of the Generic physics package and its main contents
Contents
The LMDZ.GENERIC directory
Once download from the svn server, the LMDZ.GENERIC directory contents should be something like:
deftank Making_New_Corrk_Directories.pdf DOC ManualGCM_GENERIC.pdf How_to_add_an_aerosol_to_the_GCM.pdf patch_large_domains libf README Licence_CeCILL_V2-en.txt utilities Licence_CeCILL_V2-fr.txt
Where the noteworthy elements are:
- the ManualGCM_GENERIC.pdf, How_to_add_an_aerosol_to_the_GCM.pdf and Making_New_Corrk_Directories.pdf pdf documents containing some information on the model and how to use it (somewhat obsolete, should be superseded by this MediaWiki site)
- the DOC directory contains LaTeX files and figures used to generate ManualGCM_GENERIC.pdf
- the README file which contains dated brief comments about changes in the code
- the libf directory which contains the Fortran source code (see dedicated section below)
- the utilities directory which contains some post-processing tools (see dedicated section below).
- the deftank directory which contains examples of model input files (see dedicated section below).
The libf subdirectory
The libf directory contains tree subdirectories
aeronostd dynphy_lonlat phystd
- The main physics package code is in phystd, with aeronomy routines in the companion aeronostd directory
- the dynphy_lonlat directory merely contains a phystd subdirectory (this structure follows what is done in LMDZ.COMMON to ease physics-dynamics interface management). It is in the dynphy_lonlat/phystd directory that utilities main programs newstart and start2archive are located, along with physics-dynamics interface routines.
