New URL for NEMO forge!   http://forge.nemo-ocean.eu

Since March 2022 along with NEMO 4.2 release, the code development moved to a self-hosted GitLab.
This present forge is now archived and remained online for history.

     653A module is available to use the tidal potential forcing and is activated with with \key{tide}.

     660Concerning the tidal potential, some parameters are available in namelist: 
     661 
     662- \texttt{ln\_tide\_pot} activate the tidal potential forcing 
     663 
     664- \texttt{nb\_harmo} is the number of constituent used 
     665 
     666- \texttt{clname} is the name of constituent 
     667 
     668 
     669The tide is generated by the forces of gravity ot the Earth-Moon and Earth-Sun sytem; 
     670they are expressed as the gradient of the astronomical potential ($\vec{\nabla}\Pi_{a}$). \\ 
     671 
     672The potential astronomical expressed, for the three types of tidal frequencies 
     673following, by : \\ 
     674Tide long period : 
     675\begin{equation} 
     676\Pi_{a}=gA_{k}(\frac{1}{2}-\frac{3}{2}sin^{2}\phi)cos(\omega_{k}t+V_{0k}) 
     677\end{equation} 
     678diurnal Tide : 
     679\begin{equation} 
     680\Pi_{a}=gA_{k}(sin 2\phi)cos(\omega_{k}t+\lambda+V_{0k}) 
     681\end{equation} 
     682Semi-diurnal tide: 
     683\begin{equation} 
     684\Pi_{a}=gA_{k}(cos^{2}\phi)cos(\omega_{k}t+2\lambda+V_{0k}) 
     685\end{equation} 
     686 
     687 
     688$A_{k}$ is the amplitude of the wave k, $\omega_{k}$ the pulsation of the wave k, $V_{0k}$ the astronomical phase of the wave 
     689$k$ to Greenwich. 
     690 
     691We make corrections to the astronomical potential. 
     692We obtain :  
     693\begin{equation} 
     694\Pi-g\delta = (1+k-h) \Pi_{A}(\lambda,\phi) 
     695\end{equation} 
     696with $k$ a number of Love estimated to 0.6 which parametrized the astronomical tidal land, 
     697and $h$ a number of Love to 0.3 which parametrized the parametrization due to the astronomical tidal land.
