NEMO Configuration Data Base

Purpose and definition of the diagnostics

The complete description of the available diagnostics and how to do them is available in the report of the deliverable 4.5 of the Is-ENES european project. See attached file ISENES_D4_5_v2.pdf

Other Simulations

• L2_500 and L3_500 use the default versions of the 2 sea-ice models (NEMO3.4)
• L3fwb3 similar to L3_500 but with different correction on fwb (global fwf set to zero and spread out over erp area)
• LEVIT_500y includes levitating sea-ice in lim3
• l3T_corr has corrected temp and salinity initialization files at high latitudes (using PHC3 and WHOA09), it includes the tuning on solar radiation and air-ice stress (as all runs following)
• l3T_ps differs from the previous one for the value of P* (=2.75 10⁴ as CICE) and hiccrit (.3 for both hemispheres)
• l3bcorr includes modifications and debugging on salt fluxes and a correction on salinity in the Southern Ocean as in Griffies et al 2009.
• l3b_ps1 1 and 2 as l3bcorr + P* =2.75 10⁴
• l2ps has all corrections on initialization files and same tuning as l3b_ps1

The last 3 runs are among the preliminary tests on radiative fluxes (modification in the CORE bulk ice parameters) compared with default version of lim3:

• LW3_t1se has a 10% reduction on downward long wave in both hemispheres. Here it is compared with default lim3 over 100y.
• redLW_14 has a 5% reduction on downward long wave only over the Northern hemisphere and air-ice stress = 1.4 10^3.
• LWArAn10 has a 5% reduction on downward long wave only over the Northen hemisphere and 40% reduction in the south.
