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.

    963 The ice shelf cavity is represented. The fwf and heat flux are computed.  
     962The ice shelf cavity is represented. The fwf and heat flux are computed. 2 bulk formulations are available: the ISOMIP one (\np{nn\_isfblk = 1}) described in (\np{nn\_isfblk = 2}), the 3 equation formulation described in \citet{Jenkins1991}. In addition to this,  
     9633 different way to compute the exchange coefficient are available. $\gamma\_{T/S}$ is constant (\np{nn\_gammablk = 0}), $\gamma\_{T/S}$ is velocity dependant \citep{Jenkins2010} (\np{nn\_gammablk = 1}) and $\gamma\_{T/S}$ is velocity dependant and stratification dependent \citep{Holland1999} (\np{nn\_gammablk = 2}). For each of them, the thermal/salt exchange coefficient (\np{rn\_gammat0} and \np{rn\_gammas0}) have to be specified (the default values are for the ISOMIP case).  
    964964Full description, sensitivity and validation in preparation.

    969969(\np{sn\_depmax\_isf}) and the base of the ice shelf along the calving front (\np{sn\_depmin\_isf}) as in (\np{nn\_isf}~=~3).  
    970970Furthermore the fwf is computed using the \citet{Beckmann2003} parameterisation of isf melting.  
    971 The effective melting length (\np{sn\_Leff\_isf}) is read from a file. 
     971The effective melting length (\np{sn\_Leff\_isf}) is read from a file and the exchange coefficients are set as (\np{rn\_gammat0}) and (\np{rn\_gammas0}).

    987987\np{nn\_isf}~=~3 and \np{nn\_isf}~=~4 read the melt rate and heat flux from a file. You have total control of the fwf scenario.

    989  This can be usefull if the water masses on the shelf are not realistic or the resolution (horizontal/vertical) are too

    990990coarse to have realistic melting or for sensitivity studies where you want to control your input.  
    991991Full description, sensitivity and validation in preparation.  
    992992 
    993 There is 2 ways to apply the fwf to NEMO. The first possibility (\np{ln\_divisf}~=~false) applied the fwf 
    994  and heat flux directly on the salinity and temperature tendancy. The second possibility (\np{ln\_divisf}~=~true) 
    995  apply the fwf as for the runoff fwf (see \S\ref{SBC_rnf}). The mass/volume addition due to the ice shelf melting is, 
    996  at each relevant depth level, added to the horizontal divergence (\textit{hdivn}) in the subroutine \rou{sbc\_isf\_div}  
    997 (called from \mdl{divcur}).  
     993\np{rn\_hisf\_tbl} is the top boundary layer (tbl) thickness used by the Losch parametrisation \citep{Losch2008} to compute the melt. if 0, temperature/salt/velocity in the top cell is used to compute the melt. 
     994Otherwise, NEMO used the mean value into the tbl.
