Set up a simulation


First of all see official documentation

http://forge.ipsl.jussieu.fr/libigcm/wiki/

How to manage restart files ( in the same simulation )

In modipsl/config/ORCA2_LIM/IGCM00/config.card file you have to set duration of your experience and setting PeriodLenght parameter, so you create restart files.

( for example : if you have and experience of 10 years and a PeriodLenght of 1 year, you will have 10 restart files )

#-- Début et fin de Job
#-- "YYYY-MM-DD"
DateBegin?=2001-01-01
DateEnd?=2010-12-31
#============================
#-- 1Y, 1M, 5D, 1D
PeriodLength?=1Y

Note : If you want to use restart data from another simulation ( already run not in this moment ) you have to manage "Restarts" part of config.card

#================
#D-- Restarts -
[Restarts]

How to have mail of end of Job, on ccrt's machines

on mercure: in Job_Name: #PBS -M name@mail
on platine: In Job_Name: #BSUB -u name@mail

How to manage write output frequency

in modipsl/config/ORCA2_LIM/IGCM00/config.card you have to set WriteFrequency of your experience

( for example : if you want output files every 1 month you have to put for Ocean

#===================
#D-- OCE -
[OCE]
WriteFrequency?="1M"

and if you want output files every 1 month you have to put for ICE

#===================
#D-- ICE -
[ICE]
WriteFrequency?="1M"

)

How to manage calendar type

in modipsl/config/ORCA2_LIM/IGCM00/config.card you have to set CalendarType like 360d or leap or noleap

# for 360d :

you have to be careful at

DateEnd?=2010-12-30

because every month has 30 days

If you put for example DateEnd?=2005-12-31, you will have another run, of duration like your PeriodLenght

# for noleap :

you have to be careful at

WriteFrequency="1M"

and PeriodLength=1M

because in this moment simulation of 365 days it is possible only with a write output frequency of one month, and restart every month.

( If you put a different value for WriteFrequency you will not find restart files )

How to manage rdt ( i.e. timestep )

in modipsl/config/ORCA2_LIM/IGCM00/COMP/nemo.driver you have to change parameter : ORCA_NPDT_JOUR=15

( 15 corresponds to 86400s/5760s; it does mean that in one day you have 15 iterations; and it does mean that timestep is 5760)

How control all parameters in modipsl/config/ORCA2_LIM/IGCM00/PARAM/namelist

libIGCM change namelist's values but not in namelist's file, so it is possible to control all changes of namelist's parameters looking at :

{OUTPUT_DIR}/IGCM_OUT/ORCA2_LIM/N360d_5d/OCE/Debug/!JobName_date_date_ocean.output
