'''CREATE_FILES'''

'''CREATE_PLOTS'''

'''TEST_DIRECTORY'''

== '''In CREATE_FILES:''' ==
===  ===
  there are ''' PYTHON scripts'''  to create these files :
  input netcdf files:

   * coordinates
 * bathymetry

constant fluxes:  * input file for salinity and temperature constant 
 * input file for salinity constant and a temperature profile (given by Levitus profile, averaged for pacific ocean) 

forcing files:
   * constant fluxes



== In CREATE_PLOTS: ==
  there are ''' FERRET scripts ''' to create plots of :

   * vertical slides of velocities (between à and 1000 meters) over all bassin (0° - 180°), average between 1°S and 1°N. 
 * vertical slides of temperature (between à and 1000 meters) over all bassin (0° - 180°), average between 1°S and 1°N.



== In TEST_DIRECTORIES ==
there are

 * namelist_cfg
 * iodef.xml
 * cpp keys
