    1630The ASM code adds the functionality to apply increments to the model variables: temperature, salinity, 
    17 sea surface height, velocity and sea ice concentration.  
     31sea surface height, velocity and sea ice concentration. 
    1832These are read into the model from a NetCDF file which may be produced by separate data assimilation code. 
    1933The code can also output model background fields which are used as an input to data assimilation code. 
    20 This is all controlled by the namelist \textit{\ngn{nam\_asminc} }. 
     34This is all controlled by the namelist \nam{_asminc}{\_asminc}. 
    2135There is a brief description of all the namelist options provided. 
    2236To build the ASM code \key{asminc} must be set.

    2942Direct initialization (DI) refers to the instantaneous correction of the model background state using 
    3043the analysis increment. 
    31 DI is used when \np{ln\_asmdin} is set to true.

    3751it may be preferable to introduce the increment gradually into the ocean model in order to 
    3852minimize spurious adjustment processes. 
    39 This technique is referred to as Incremental Analysis Updates (IAU) \citep{Bloom_al_MWR96}. 
     53This technique is referred to as Incremental Analysis Updates (IAU) \citep{bloom.takacs.ea_MWR96}. 
    4054IAU is a common technique used with 3D assimilation methods such as 3D-Var or OI. 
    41 IAU is used when \np{ln\_asmiau} is set to true. 
     55IAU is used when \np{ln_asmiau}{ln\_asmiau} is set to true.

    43 With IAU, the model state trajectory ${\bf x}$ in the assimilation window ($t_{0} \leq t_{i} \leq t_{N}$) 
     57With IAU, the model state trajectory ${\mathbf x}$ in the assimilation window ($t_{0} \leq t_{i} \leq t_{N}$) 
    4458is corrected by adding the analysis increments for temperature, salinity, horizontal velocity and SSH as 
    4559additional tendency terms to the prognostic equations: 
    4660\begin{align*} 
    47   % \label{eq:wa_traj_iau} 
    48   {\bf x}^{a}(t_{i}) = M(t_{i}, t_{0})[{\bf x}^{b}(t_{0})] \; + \; F_{i} \delta \tilde{\bf x}^{a} 
     61  % \label{eq:ASM_wa_traj_iau} 
     62  {\mathbf x}^{a}(t_{i}) = M(t_{i}, t_{0})[{\mathbf x}^{b}(t_{0})] \; + \; F_{i} \delta \tilde{\mathbf x}^{a} 
    4963\end{align*} 
    50 where $F_{i}$ is a weighting function for applying the increments $\delta\tilde{\bf x}^{a}$ defined such that 
     64where $F_{i}$ is a weighting function for applying the increments $\delta\tilde{\mathbf x}^{a}$ defined such that 
    5165$\sum_{i=1}^{N} F_{i}=1$. 
    52 ${\bf x}^b$ denotes the model initial state and ${\bf x}^a$ is the model state after the increments are applied. 
     66${\mathbf x}^b$ denotes the model initial state and ${\mathbf x}^a$ is the model state after the increments are applied. 
    5367To control the adjustment time of the model to the increment, 
    5468the increment can be applied over an arbitrary sub-window, $t_{m} \leq t_{i} \leq t_{n}$, 
     
    5670Typically the increments are spread evenly over the full window. 
    5771In addition, two different weighting functions have been implemented. 
    58 The first function employs constant weights,  
     72The first function (namelist option \np{niaufn}{niaufn}=0) employs constant weights,

    91104\section{Divergence damping initialisation} 
    92105\label{sec:ASM_div_dmp} 
    93106 
    94 The velocity increments may be initialized by the iterative application of a divergence damping operator. 
    95 In iteration step $n$ new estimates of velocity increments $u^{n}_I$ and $v^{n}_I$ are updated by: 
     107It is quite challenging for data assimilation systems to provide non-divergent velocity increments. 
     108Applying divergent velocity increments will likely cause spurious vertical velocities in the model. This section describes a method to take velocity increments provided to \NEMO\ ($u^0_I$ and $v^0_I$) and adjust them by the iterative application of a divergence damping operator. The method is also described in \citet{dobricic.pinardi.ea_OS07}. 
     109 
     110In iteration step $n$ (starting at $n=1$) new estimates of velocity increments $u^{n}_I$ and $v^{n}_I$ are updated by: 
     111 
    96112\begin{equation} 
    97   \label{eq:asm_dmp} 
     113  \label{eq:ASM_dmp} 
    98114  \left\{ 
    99115    \begin{aligned} 
     
    105121  \right., 
    106122\end{equation} 
    107 where 
     123 
     124where the divergence is defined as 
     125 
    108126\[ 
    109   % \label{eq:asm_div} 
     127  % \label{eq:ASM_div} 
    110128  \chi^{n-1}_I = \frac{1}{e_{1t}\,e_{2t}\,e_{3t} } 
    111129  \left( {\delta_i \left[ {e_{2u}\,e_{3u}\,u^{n-1}_I} \right] 
    112130      +\delta_j \left[ {e_{1v}\,e_{3v}\,v^{n-1}_I} \right]} \right). 
    113131\] 
    114 By the application of \autoref{eq:asm_dmp} and \autoref{eq:asm_dmp} the divergence is filtered in each iteration, 
     132 
     133By the application of \autoref{eq:ASM_dmp} the divergence is filtered in each iteration, 
    115134and the vorticity is left unchanged. 
    116135In the presence of coastal boundaries with zero velocity increments perpendicular to the coast 
     
    118137This type of the initialisation reduces the vertical velocity magnitude and 
    119138alleviates the problem of the excessive unphysical vertical mixing in the first steps of the model integration 
    120 \citep{Talagrand_JAS72, Dobricic_al_OS07}. 
     139\citep{talagrand_JAS72, dobricic.pinardi.ea_OS07}. 
    121140Diffusion coefficients are defined as $A_D = \alpha e_{1t} e_{2t}$, where $\alpha = 0.2$. 
    122 The divergence damping is activated by assigning to \np{nn\_divdmp} in the \textit{nam\_asminc} namelist 
     141The divergence damping is activated by assigning to \np{nn_divdmp}{nn\_divdmp} in the \nam{_asminc}{\_asminc} namelist 
    123142a value greater than zero. 
    124 By choosing this value to be of the order of 100 the increments in 
    125 the vertical velocity will be significantly reduced. 
     143This specifies the number of iterations of the divergence damping. Setting a value of the order of 100 will result in a significant reduction in the vertical velocity induced by the increments.

     97Iomput provides the possibility to specify N dedicated I/O processes (in addition to the \NEMO\ processes)

    100100the output files can be greatly reduced. 
    101101 
    102 In version 3.6, the iom\_put interface depends on 
    103 an external code called \href{https://forge.ipsl.jussieu.fr/ioserver/browser/XIOS/branchs/xios-1.0}{XIOS-1.0}

    105105This new IO server can take advantage of the parallel I/O functionality of NetCDF4 to 
    106106create a single output file and therefore to bypass the rebuilding phase. 
    107107Note that writing in parallel into the same NetCDF files requires that your NetCDF4 library is linked to 
    108 an HDF5 library that has been correctly compiled (\ie with the configure option $--$enable-parallel). 
     108an HDF5 library that has been correctly compiled (\ie\ with the configure option $--$enable-parallel). 
    109109Note that the files created by iomput through XIOS are incompatible with NetCDF3. 
    110110All post-processsing and visualization tools must therefore be compatible with NetCDF4 and not only NetCDF3. 
    111111 
    112112Even if not using the parallel I/O functionality of NetCDF4, using N dedicated I/O servers, 
    113 where N is typically much less than the number of NEMO processors, will reduce the number of output files created.

    115115Note that for smaller configurations, the rebuilding phase can be avoided, 
    116116even without a parallel-enabled NetCDF4 library, simply by employing only one dedicated I/O server.

    118119\subsection{XIOS: Reading and writing restart file} 
    119120 
    120 XIOS may be used to read single file restart produced by NEMO. Currently only the variables written to  
    121 file \forcode{numror} can be handled by XIOS. To activate restart reading using XIOS, set \np{ln\_xios\_read}\forcode{ = .true. } 
    122 in \textit{namelist\_cfg}. This setting will be ignored when multiple restart files are present, and default NEMO  
    123 functionality will be used for reading. There is no need to change iodef.xml file to use XIOS to read  
    124 restart, all definitions are done within the NEMO code. For high resolution configuration, however,  
     121XIOS may be used to read single file restart produced by \NEMO. Currently only the variables written to 
     122file \forcode{numror} can be handled by XIOS. To activate restart reading using XIOS, set \np[=.true. ]{ln_xios_read}{ln\_xios\_read} 
     123in \textit{namelist\_cfg}. This setting will be ignored when multiple restart files are present, and default \NEMO 
     124functionality will be used for reading. There is no need to change iodef.xml file to use XIOS to read 
     125restart, all definitions are done within the \NEMO\ code. For high resolution configuration, however, 
    125126there may be a need to add the following line in iodef.xml (xios context): 
    126127 
     
    129130\end{xmllines} 
    130131 
    131 This variable sets timeout for reading.  
    132  
    133 If XIOS is to be used to read restart from file generated with an earlier NEMO version (3.6 for instance), 
     132This variable sets timeout for reading. 
     133 
     134If XIOS is to be used to read restart from file generated with an earlier \NEMO\ version (3.6 for instance), 
    134135dimension \forcode{z} defined in restart file must be renamed to \forcode{nav_lev}.\\ 
    135136 
    136 XIOS can also be used to write NEMO restart. A namelist parameter \np{nn\_wxios} is used to determine the  
    137 type of restart NEMO will write. If it is set to 0, default NEMO functionality will be used - each  
    138 processor writes its own restart file; if it is set to 1 XIOS will write restart into a single file;  
    139 for \np{nn\_wxios = 2} the restart will be written by XIOS into multiple files, one for each XIOS server.  
    140 Note, however, that \textbf{NEMO will not read restart generated by XIOS when \np{nn\_wxios = 2}}. The restart will  
    141 have to be rebuild before continuing the run. This option aims to reduce number of restart files generated by NEMO only,  
    142 and may be useful when there is a need to change number of processors used to run simulation.  
     137XIOS can also be used to write \NEMO\ restart. A namelist parameter \np{nn_wxios}{nn\_wxios} is used to determine the 
     138type of restart \NEMO\ will write. If it is set to 0, default \NEMO\ functionality will be used - each 
     139processor writes its own restart file; if it is set to 1 XIOS will write restart into a single file; 
     140for \np[=2]{nn_wxios}{nn\_wxios} the restart will be written by XIOS into multiple files, one for each XIOS server. 
     141Note, however, that \textbf{\NEMO\ will not read restart generated by XIOS when \np[=2]{nn_wxios}{nn\_wxios}}. The restart will 
     142have to be rebuild before continuing the run. This option aims to reduce number of restart files generated by \NEMO\ only, 
     143and may be useful when there is a need to change number of processors used to run simulation. 
    143144 
    144145If an additional variable must be written to a restart file, the following steps are needed: 
    145 \begin{description}

    18001773 
    18011774Changes in steric sea level are caused when changes in the density of the water column imply an expansion or 
     
    18091782The steric effect is therefore not explicitely represented. 
    18101783This approximation does not represent a serious error with respect to the flow field calculated by the model 
    1811 \citep{Greatbatch_JGR94}, but extra attention is required when investigating sea level, 
     1784\citep{greatbatch_JGR94}, but extra attention is required when investigating sea level, 
    18121785as steric changes are an important contribution to local changes in sea level on seasonal and climatic time scales. 
    18131786This is especially true for investigation into sea level rise due to global warming. 
    18141787 
    18151788Fortunately, the steric contribution to the sea level consists of a spatially uniform component that 
    1816 can be diagnosed by considering the mass budget of the world ocean \citep{Greatbatch_JGR94}.

    18881861the ocean surface, not by changes in mean mass of the ocean: the steric effect is missing in a Boussinesq fluid. 
    18891862 
    1890 Nevertheless, following \citep{Greatbatch_JGR94}, the steric effect on the volume can be diagnosed by 
    1891 considering the mass budget of the ocean.  
     1863Nevertheless, following \citep{greatbatch_JGR94}, the steric effect on the volume can be diagnosed by 
     1864considering the mass budget of the ocean. 
    18921865The apparent changes in $\mathcal{M}$, mass of the ocean, which are not induced by surface mass flux 
    18931866must be compensated by a spatially uniform change in the mean sea level due to expansion/contraction of the ocean 
    1894 \citep{Greatbatch_JGR94}. 
     1867\citep{greatbatch_JGR94}. 
    18951868In others words, the Boussinesq mass, $\mathcal{M}_o$, can be related to $\mathcal{M}$, 
    18961869the total mass of the ocean seen by the Boussinesq model, via the steric contribution to the sea level, 
     
    18991872\begin{equation} 
    19001873  \mathcal{M}_o = \mathcal{M} + \rho_o \,\eta_s \,\mathcal{A}

    19021875\end{equation}

    19051878is converted into a mean change in sea level. 
    19061879Introducing the total density anomaly, $\mathcal{D}= \int_D d_a \,dv$, 
    1907 where $d_a = (\rho -\rho_o ) / \rho_o$ is the density anomaly used in \NEMO (cf. \autoref{subsec:TRA_eos}) 
    1908 in \autoref{eq:M_Bq} leads to a very simple form for the steric height: 
     1880where $d_a = (\rho -\rho_o ) / \rho_o$ is the density anomaly used in \NEMO\ (cf. \autoref{subsec:TRA_eos}) 
     1881in \autoref{eq:DIA_M_Bq} leads to a very simple form for the steric height: 
    19091882 
    19101883\begin{equation} 
    19111884  \eta_s = - \frac{1}{\mathcal{A}} \mathcal{D} 
    1912   \label{eq:steric_Bq} 
     1885  \label{eq:DIA_steric_Bq} 
    19131886\end{equation} 
    19141887 
    19151888The above formulation of the steric height of a Boussinesq ocean requires four remarks. 
    19161889First, one can be tempted to define $\rho_o$ as the initial value of $\mathcal{M}/\mathcal{V}$, 
    1917 \ie set $\mathcal{D}_{t=0}=0$, so that the initial steric height is zero. 
     1890\ie\ set $\mathcal{D}_{t=0}=0$, so that the initial steric height is zero. 
    19181891We do not recommend that. 
    19191892Indeed, in this case $\rho_o$ depends on the initial state of the ocean. 
     
    19241897This value is a sensible choice for the reference density used in a Boussinesq ocean climate model since, 
    19251898with the exception of only a small percentage of the ocean, density in the World Ocean varies by no more than 
    1926 2$\%$ from this value (\cite{Gill1982}, page 47). 
     18992$\%$ from this value (\cite{gill_bk82}, page 47). 
    19271900 
    19281901Second, we have assumed here that the total ocean surface, $\mathcal{A}$, 
    19291902does not change when the sea level is changing as it is the case in all global ocean GCMs 
    19301903(wetting and drying of grid point is not allowed). 
    1931    
    1932 Third, the discretisation of \autoref{eq:steric_Bq} depends on the type of free surface which is considered. 
    1933 In the non linear free surface case, \ie \key{vvl} defined, it is given by

     1906In the non linear free surface case, \ie\ \np[=.true.]{ln_linssh}{ln\_linssh}, it is given by 
    19341907 
    19351908\[ 
    19361909  \eta_s = - \frac{ \sum_{i,\,j,\,k} d_a\; e_{1t} e_{2t} e_{3t} }{ \sum_{i,\,j,\,k}       e_{1t} e_{2t} e_{3t} }

    19451918  \eta_s = - \frac{ \sum_{i,\,j,\,k} d_a\; e_{1t}e_{2t}e_{3t} + \sum_{i,\,j} d_a\; e_{1t}e_{2t} \eta }

    19541927so that there are no associated ocean currents. 
    19551928Hence, the dynamically relevant sea level is the effective sea level, 
    1956 \ie the sea level as if sea ice (and snow) were converted to liquid seawater \citep{Campin_al_OM08}. 
    1957 However, in the current version of \NEMO the sea-ice is levitating above the ocean without mass exchanges between

     1930However, in the current version of \NEMO\ the sea-ice is levitating above the ocean without mass exchanges between 
    19581931ice and ocean. 
    19591932Therefore the model effective sea level is always given by $\eta + \eta_s$, whether or not there is sea ice present. 
     
    19651938\[ 
    19661939  \eta_s = - \frac{1}{\mathcal{A}} \int_D d_a(T,S_o,p_o) \,dv

    1929The skin temperature can be split into three parts: 
    2030\begin{itemize} 
    21 \item 
    22   A foundation SST which is free from diurnal warming. 
    23 \item 
    24   A warm layer, typically ~3\,m thick, 
     31\item A foundation SST which is free from diurnal warming. 
     32\item A warm layer, typically ~3\,m thick, 
    2533  where heating from solar radiation can cause a warm stably stratified layer during the daytime 
    26 \item 
    27   A cool skin, a thin layer, approximately ~1\, mm thick, 
     34\item A cool skin, a thin layer, approximately ~1\, mm thick, 
    2835  where long wave cooling is dominant and cools the immediate ocean surface.

     71The warm layer is calculated using the model of \citet{takaya.bidlot.ea_JGR10} (TAKAYA10 model hereafter). 
    6372This is a simple flux based model that is defined by the equations 
    6473\begin{align} 
    65 \frac{\partial{\Delta T_{\rm{wl}}}}{\partial{t}}&=&\frac{Q(\nu+1)}{D_T\rho_w c_p

    6675\nu}-\frac{(\nu+1)ku^*_{w}f(L_a)\Delta T}{D_T\Phi\!\left(\frac{D_T}{L}\right)} \mbox{,}

     77L&=&\frac{\rho_w c_p u^{*^3}_{w}}{\kappa g \alpha_w Q }\mbox{,}\label{eq:DIU_ecmwf2} 
    6978\end{align} 
    70 where $\Delta T_{\rm{wl}}$ is the temperature difference between the top of the warm layer and the depth $D_T=3$\,m at which there is assumed to be no diurnal signal. 
    71 In equation (\autoref{eq:ecmwf1}) $\alpha_w=2\times10^{-4}$ is the thermal expansion coefficient of water, 
     79where $\Delta T_{\mathrm{wl}}$ is the temperature difference between the top of the warm layer and the depth $D_T=3$\,m at which there is assumed to be no diurnal signal. 
     80In equation (\autoref{eq:DIU_ecmwf1}) $\alpha_w=2\times10^{-4}$ is the thermal expansion coefficient of water, 
    7281$\kappa=0.4$ is von K\'{a}rm\'{a}n's constant, $c_p$ is the heat capacity at constant pressure of sea water, 
    7382$\rho_w$ is the water density, and $L$ is the Monin-Obukhov length. 
    7483The tunable variable $\nu$ is a shape parameter that defines the expected subskin temperature profile via 
    75 $T(z) = T(0) - \left( \frac{z}{D_T} \right)^\nu \Delta T_{\rm{wl}}$, 
     84$T(z) = T(0) - \left( \frac{z}{D_T} \right)^\nu \Delta T_{\mathrm{wl}}$, 
    7685where $T$ is the absolute temperature and $z\le D_T$ is the depth below the top of the warm layer.

     74Special attention has been given to the homogeneity of the solution in the three spatial directions. 
    5875The arrangement of variables is the same in all directions. 
    59 It consists of cells centred on scalar points ($t$, $S$, $p$, $\rho$) with vector points $(u, v, w)$ defined in 
    60 the centre of each face of the cells (\autoref{fig:cell}). 
    61 This is the generalisation to three dimensions of the well-known ``C'' grid in Arakawa's classification 
    62 \citep{Mesinger_Arakawa_Bk76}. 
    63 The relative and planetary vorticity, $\zeta$ and $f$, are defined in the centre of each vertical edge and 
    64 the barotropic stream function $\psi$ is defined at horizontal points overlying the $\zeta$ and $f$-points. 
    65  
    66 The ocean mesh (\ie the position of all the scalar and vector points) is defined by the transformation that 
    67 gives $(\lambda,\varphi,z)$ as a function of $(i,j,k)$.

    69 In all the following, subscripts $u$, $v$, $w$, $f$, $uw$, $vw$ or $fw$ indicate the position of 
    70 the grid-point where the scale factors are defined. 
    71 Each scale factor is defined as the local analytical value provided by \autoref{eq:scale_factors}. 
     76It consists of cells centred on scalar points ($t$, $S$, $p$, $\rho$) with

     91Each scale factor is defined as the local analytical value provided by \autoref{eq:MB_scale_factors}. 
    7292As a result, the mesh on which partial derivatives $\pd[]{\lambda}$, $\pd[]{\varphi}$ and 
    73 $\pd[]{z}$ are evaluated in a uniform mesh with a grid size of unity. 
    74 Discrete partial derivatives are formulated by the traditional, centred second order finite difference approximation

     94Discrete partial derivatives are formulated by 
     95the traditional, centred second order finite difference approximation while 
     96the scale factors are chosen equal to their local analytical value. 
    7697An important point here is that the partial derivative of the scale factors must be evaluated by 
    7798centred finite difference approximation, not from their analytical expression. 
    78 This preserves the symmetry of the discrete set of equations and therefore satisfies many of 
    79 the continuous properties (see \autoref{apdx:C}).

    80101A similar, related remark can be made about the domain size: 
    81 when needed, an area, volume, or the total ocean depth must be evaluated as the sum of the relevant scale factors 
    82 (see \autoref{eq:DOM_bar} in the next section).

     136Note that the definition of the scale factors 
     137(\ie\ as the analytical first derivative of the transformation that 
     138results in $(\lambda,\varphi,z)$ as a function of $(i,j,k)$) 
     139is specific to the \NEMO\ model \citep{marti.madec.ea_JGR92}. 
     140As an example, a scale factor in the $i$ direction is defined locally at a $t$-point, 
     141whereas many other models on a C grid choose to define such a scale factor as 
     142the distance between the $u$-points on each side of the $t$-point. 
     143Relying on an analytical transformation has two advantages: 
     144firstly, there is no ambiguity in the scale factors appearing in the discrete equations, 
     145since they are first introduced in the continuous equations; 
     146secondly, analytical transformations encourage good practice by 
     147the definition of smoothly varying grids 
     148(rather than allowing the user to set arbitrary jumps in thickness between adjacent layers) 
     149\citep{treguier.dukowicz.ea_JGR96}. 
     150An example of the effect of such a choice is shown in \autoref{fig:DOM_zgr_e3}.

     157    For both grids here, the same $w$-point depth has been chosen but 
     158    in (a) the $t$-points are set half way between $w$-points while 
     159    in (b) they are defined from an analytical function: 
     160    $z(k) = 5 \, (k - 1/2)^3 - 45 \, (k - 1/2)^2 + 140 \, (k - 1/2) - 150$.

     162    those of the scale factor $e_k$.}

    253296\label{subsec:DOM_Num_Index_vertical} 
    254297 
    255 In the vertical, the chosen indexing requires special attention since the $k$-axis is re-orientated downward in 
    256 the \fortran code compared to the indexing used in the semi -discrete equations and 
    257 given in \autoref{subsec:DOM_cell}. 
    258 The sea surface corresponds to the $w$-level $k = 1$ which is the same index as $t$-level just below 
    259 (\autoref{fig:index_vert}). 
    260 The last $w$-level ($k = jpk$) either corresponds to the ocean floor or is inside the bathymetry while 
    261 the last $t$-level is always inside the bathymetry (\autoref{fig:index_vert}). 
    262 Note that for an increasing $k$ index, a $w$-point and the $t$-point just below have the same $k$ index, 
    263 in opposition to what is done in the horizontal plane where 
    264 it is the $t$-point and the nearest velocity points in the direction of the horizontal axis that 
    265 have the same $i$ or $j$ index 
    266 (compare the dashed area in \autoref{fig:index_hor} and \autoref{fig:index_vert}). 
     298In the vertical, the chosen indexing requires special attention since 
     299the direction of the $k$-axis in the \fortran\ code is the reverse of 
     300that used in the semi-discrete equations and given in \autoref{subsec:DOM_cell}. 
     301The sea surface corresponds to the $w$-level $k = 1$, 
     302which is the same index as the $t$-level just below (\autoref{fig:DOM_index_vert}). 
     303The last $w$-level ($k = jpk$) either corresponds to or is below the ocean floor while 
     304the last $t$-level is always outside the ocean domain (\autoref{fig:DOM_index_vert}). 
     305Note that a $w$-point and the directly underlaying $t$-point have a common $k$ index 
     306(\ie\ $t$-points and their nearest $w$-point neighbour in negative index direction), 
     307in contrast to the indexing on the horizontal plane where 
     308the $t$-point has the same index as the nearest velocity points in 
     309the positive direction of the respective horizontal axis index 
     310(compare the dashed area in \autoref{fig:DOM_index_hor} and \autoref{fig:DOM_index_vert}). 
    267311Since the scale factors are chosen to be strictly positive, 
    268 a \textit{minus sign} appears in the \fortran code \textit{before all the vertical derivatives} of

     328\section{Spatial domain configuration} 
     329\label{subsec:DOM_config} 
     330 
     331Two typical methods are available to specify the spatial domain configuration; 
     332they can be selected using parameter \np{ln_read_cfg}{ln\_read\_cfg} parameter in 
     333namelist \nam{cfg}{cfg}. 
     334 
     335If \np{ln_read_cfg}{ln\_read\_cfg} is set to \forcode{.true.}, 
     336the domain-specific parameters and fields are read from a NetCDF input file, 
     337whose name (without its .nc suffix) can be specified as 
     338the value of the \np{cn_domcfg}{cn\_domcfg} parameter in namelist \nam{cfg}{cfg}. 
     339 
     340If \np{ln_read_cfg}{ln\_read\_cfg} is set to \forcode{.false.}, 
     341the domain-specific parameters and fields can be provided (\eg\ analytically computed) by 
     342subroutines \mdl{usrdef\_hgr} and \mdl{usrdef\_zgr}. 
     343These subroutines can be supplied in the \path{MY_SRC} directory of the configuration, 
     344and default versions that configure the spatial domain for the GYRE reference configuration are 
     345present in the \path{./src/OCE/USR} directory. 
     346 
     347In version 4.0 there are no longer any options for reading complex bathymetries and 
     348performing a vertical discretisation at run-time. 
     349Whilst it is occasionally convenient to have a common bathymetry file and, for example, 
     350to run similar models with and without partial bottom boxes and/or sigma-coordinates, 
     351supporting such choices leads to overly complex code. 
     352Worse still is the difficulty of ensuring the model configurations intended to be identical are 
     353indeed so when the model domain itself can be altered by runtime selections. 
     354The code previously used to perform vertical discretisation has been incorporated into 
     355an external tool (\path{./tools/DOMAINcfg}) which is briefly described in \autoref{apdx:DOMCFG}. 
     356 
     357The next subsections summarise the parameter and fields related to 
     358the configuration of the whole model domain. 
     359These represent the minimum information that must be provided either via 
     360the \np{cn_domcfg}{cn\_domcfg} file or 
     361set by code inserted into user-supplied versions of the \texttt{usrdef\_*} subroutines. 
     362The requirements are presented in three sections: 
     363the domain size (\autoref{subsec:DOM_size}), the horizontal mesh (\autoref{subsec:DOM_hgr}), 
     364and the vertical grid (\autoref{subsec:DOM_zgr}).

    302 The ocean mesh (\ie the position of all the scalar and vector points) is defined by the transformation that 
    303 gives $(\lambda,\varphi,z)$ as a function of $(i,j,k)$. 
    304 The grid-points are located at integer or integer and a half values of as indicated in \autoref{tab:cell}. 
    305 The associated scale factors are defined using the analytical first derivative of the transformation 
    306 \autoref{eq:scale_factors}. 
    307 Necessary fields for configuration definition are: 
     370The total size of the computational domain is set by the parameters \jp{jpiglo}, \jp{jpjglo} and 
     371\jp{jpkglo} for the $i$, $j$ and $k$ directions, respectively. 
     372Note, that the variables \texttt{jpi} and \texttt{jpj} refer to 
     373the size of each processor subdomain when the code is run in parallel using domain decomposition 
     374(\key{mpp\_mpi} defined, see \autoref{sec:LBC_mpp}). 
     375 
     376The name of the configuration is set through parameter \np{cn_cfg}{cn\_cfg},

     392 
     393The explicit specification of a range of mesh-related fields are required for 
     394the definition of a configuration. 
     395These include: 
     396 
     397\begin{clines} 
     398int    jpiglo, jpjglo, jpkglo     /* global domain sizes                                    */ 
     399int    jperio                     /* lateral global domain b.c.                             */ 
     400double glamt, glamu, glamv, glamf /* geographic longitude (t,u,v and f points respectively) */ 
     401double gphit, gphiu, gphiv, gphif /* geographic latitude                                    */ 
     402double e1t, e1u, e1v, e1f         /* horizontal scale factors                               */ 
     403double e2t, e2u, e2v, e2f         /* horizontal scale factors                               */ 
     404\end{clines} 
     405 
     406The values of the geographic longitude and latitude arrays at indices $i,j$ correspond to 
     407the analytical expressions of the longitude $\lambda$ and latitude $\varphi$ as a function of $(i,j)$, 
     408evaluated at the values as specified in \autoref{tab:DOM_cell} for the respective grid-point position. 
     409The calculation of the values of the horizontal scale factor arrays in general additionally involves 
     410partial derivatives of $\lambda$ and $\varphi$ with respect to $i$ and $j$, 
     411evaluated for the same arguments as $\lambda$ and $\varphi$. 
     412 
     413%% ================================================================================================= 
     414\subsubsection{Optional fields} 
     415 
     416\begin{clines} 
     417                        /* Optional:                                                 */ 
     418int    ORCA, ORCA_index /* configuration name, configuration resolution              */ 
     419double e1e2u, e1e2v     /* U and V surfaces (if grid size reduction in some straits) */ 
     420double ff_f, ff_t       /* Coriolis parameter (if not on the sphere)                 */ 
     421\end{clines} 
     422 
     423\NEMO\ can support the local reduction of key strait widths by 
     424altering individual values of e2u or e1v at the appropriate locations. 
     425This is particularly useful for locations such as Gibraltar or Indonesian Throughflow pinch-points 
     426(see \autoref{sec:MISC_strait} for illustrated examples). 
     427The key is to reduce the faces of $T$-cell 
     428(\ie\ change the value of the horizontal scale factors at $u$- or $v$-point) but 
     429not the volume of the cells. 
     430Doing otherwise can lead to numerical instability issues. 
     431In normal operation the surface areas are computed from $e1u * e2u$ and $e1v * e2v$ but 
     432in cases where a gridsize reduction is required, 
     433the unaltered surface areas at $u$ and $v$ grid points 
     434(\texttt{e1e2u} and \texttt{e1e2v}, respectively) must be read or pre-computed in \mdl{usrdef\_hgr}. 
     435If these arrays are present in the \np{cn_domcfg}{cn\_domcfg} file they are read and 
     436the internal computation is suppressed. 
     437Versions of \mdl{usrdef\_hgr} which set their own values of \texttt{e1e2u} and \texttt{e1e2v} should 
     438set the surface-area computation flag: 
     439\texttt{ie1e2u\_v} to a non-zero value to suppress their re-computation. 
     440 
     441\smallskip 
     442Similar logic applies to the other optional fields: 
     443\texttt{ff\_f} and \texttt{ff\_t} which can be used to 
     444provide the Coriolis parameter at F- and T-points respectively if the mesh is not on a sphere. 
     445If present these fields will be read and used and 
     446the normal calculation ($2 * \Omega * \sin(\varphi)$) suppressed. 
     447Versions of \mdl{usrdef\_hgr} which set their own values of \texttt{ff\_f} and \texttt{ff\_t} should 
     448set the Coriolis computation flag: 
     449\texttt{iff} to a non-zero value to suppress their re-computation. 
     450 
     451Note that longitudes, latitudes, and scale factors at $w$ points are exactly equal to 
     452those of $t$ points, thus no specific arrays are defined at $w$ points.

     465\begin{enumerate} 
     466\item the bathymetry given in meters; 
     467\item the number of levels of the model (\jp{jpk}); 
     468\item the analytical transformation $z(i,j,k)$ and the vertical scale factors 
     469  (derivatives of the transformation); and 
     470\item the masking system, 
     471  \ie\ the number of wet model levels at each $(i,j)$ location of the horizontal grid. 
     472\end{enumerate} 
     473

     489  \label{fig:DOM_z_zps_s_sps} 
     490\end{figure} 
     491 
     492The choice of a vertical coordinate is made when setting up the configuration; 
     493it is not intended to be an option which can be changed in the middle of an experiment. 
     494The one exception to this statement being the choice of linear or non-linear free surface. 
     495In v4.0 the linear free surface option is implemented as 
     496a special case of the non-linear free surface. 
     497This is computationally wasteful since it uses the structures for time-varying 3D metrics 
     498for fields that (in the linear free surface case) are fixed. 
     499However, the linear free-surface is rarely used and 
     500implementing it this way means a single configuration file can support both options. 
     501 
     502By default a non-linear free surface is used 
     503(\np{ln_linssh}{ln\_linssh} set to \forcode{=.false.} in \nam{dom}{dom}): 
     504the coordinate follow the time-variation of the free surface so that 
     505the transformation is time dependent: $z(i,j,k,t)$ (\eg\ \autoref{fig:DOM_z_zps_s_sps}f). 
     506When a linear free surface is assumed 
     507(\np{ln_linssh}{ln\_linssh} set to \forcode{=.true.} in \nam{dom}{dom}), 
     508the vertical coordinates are fixed in time, but 
     509the seawater can move up and down across the $z_0$ surface 
     510(in other words, the top of the ocean in not a rigid lid). 
     511 
     512Note that settings: 
     513\np{ln_zco}{ln\_zco}, \np{ln_zps}{ln\_zps}, \np{ln_sco}{ln\_sco} and \np{ln_isfcav}{ln\_isfcav} 
     514mentioned in the following sections appear to be namelist options but 
     515they are no longer truly namelist options for \NEMO. 
     516Their value is written to and read from the domain configuration file and 
     517they should be treated as fixed parameters for a particular configuration. 
     518They are namelist options for the \texttt{DOMAINcfg} tool that can be used to 
     519build the configuration file and serve both to provide a record of the choices made whilst 
     520building the configuration and to trigger appropriate code blocks within \NEMO. 
     521These values should not be altered in the \np{cn_domcfg}{cn\_domcfg} file. 
     522 
     523\medskip 
     524The decision on these choices must be made when the \np{cn_domcfg}{cn\_domcfg} file is constructed. 
     525Three main choices are offered (\autoref{fig:DOM_z_zps_s_sps}a-c): 
    308526 
    309527\begin{itemize} 
    310 \item 
    311   Geographic position: 
    312   longitude with \texttt{glamt}, \texttt{glamu}, \texttt{glamv}, \texttt{glamf} and 
    313   latitude  with \texttt{gphit}, \texttt{gphiu}, \texttt{gphiv}, \texttt{gphif} 
    314   (all respectively at T, U, V and F point) 
    315 \item 
    316   Coriolis parameter (if domain not on the sphere): \texttt{ff\_f} and \texttt{ff\_t} 
    317   (at T and F point) 
    318 \item 
    319   Scale factors: 
    320   \texttt{e1t}, \texttt{e1u}, \texttt{e1v} and \texttt{e1f} (on i direction), 
    321   \texttt{e2t}, \texttt{e2u}, \texttt{e2v} and \texttt{e2f} (on j direction) and 
    322   \texttt{ie1e2u\_v}, \texttt{e1e2u}, \texttt{e1e2v}. \\ 
    323   \texttt{e1e2u}, \texttt{e1e2v} are u and v surfaces (if gridsize reduction in some straits),  
    324   \texttt{ie1e2u\_v} is to flag set u and v surfaces are neither read nor computed. 
     528\item $z$-coordinate with full step bathymetry (\np[=.true.]{ln_zco}{ln\_zco}), 
     529\item $z$-coordinate with partial step ($zps$) bathymetry (\np[=.true.]{ln_zps}{ln\_zps}), 
     530\item Generalized, $s$-coordinate (\np[=.true.]{ln_sco}{ln\_sco}). 
    325531\end{itemize} 
    326   
    327 These fields can be read in an domain input file which name is setted in \np{cn\_domcfg} parameter specified in 
    328 \ngn{namcfg}.

    332 Or they can be defined in an analytical way in \path{MY_SRC} directory of the configuration. 
    333 For Reference Configurations of NEMO input domain files are supplied by NEMO System Team. 
    334 For analytical definition of input fields two routines are supplied: \mdl{usrdef\_hgr} and \mdl{usrdef\_zgr}. 
    335 They are an example of GYRE configuration parameters, and they are available in \path{src/OCE/USR} directory,

    354 \label{subsec:DOM_hgr_coord_e} 
    355  
    356 The ocean mesh (\ie the position of all the scalar and vector points) is defined by 
    357 the transformation that gives $(\lambda,\varphi,z)$ as a function of $(i,j,k)$. 
    358 The grid-points are located at integer or integer and a half values of as indicated in \autoref{tab:cell}. 
    359 The associated scale factors are defined using the analytical first derivative of the transformation 
    360 \autoref{eq:scale_factors}. 
    361 These definitions are done in two modules, \mdl{domhgr} and \mdl{domzgr}, 
    362 which provide the horizontal and vertical meshes, respectively. 
    363 This section deals with the horizontal mesh parameters. 
    364  
    365 In a horizontal plane, the location of all the model grid points is defined from 
    366 the analytical expressions of the longitude $\lambda$ and latitude $\varphi$ as a function of $(i,j)$. 
    367 The horizontal scale factors are calculated using \autoref{eq:scale_factors}. 
    368 For example, when the longitude and latitude are function of a single value 
    369 ($i$ and $j$, respectively) (geographical configuration of the mesh), 
    370 the horizontal mesh definition reduces to define the wanted $\lambda(i)$, $\varphi(j)$, 
    371 and their derivatives $\lambda'(i) \ \varphi'(j)$ in the \mdl{domhgr} module. 
    372 The model computes the grid-point positions and scale factors in the horizontal plane as follows: 
     532 
     533Additionally, hybrid combinations of the three main coordinates are available: 
     534$s-z$ or $s-zps$ coordinate (\autoref{fig:DOM_z_zps_s_sps}d and \autoref{fig:DOM_z_zps_s_sps}e). 
     535 
     536A further choice related to vertical coordinate concerns 
     537the presence (or not) of ocean cavities beneath ice shelves within the model domain. 
     538A setting of \np{ln_isfcav}{ln\_isfcav} as \forcode{.true.} indicates that 
     539the domain contains ocean cavities, 
     540otherwise the top, wet layer of the ocean will always be at the ocean surface. 
     541This option is currently only available for $z$- or $zps$-coordinates. 
     542In the latter case, partial steps are also applied at the ocean/ice shelf interface. 
     543 
     544Within the model, 
     545the arrays describing the grid point depths and vertical scale factors are 
     546three set of three dimensional arrays $(i,j,k)$ defined at 
     547\textit{before}, \textit{now} and \textit{after} time step. 
     548The time at which they are defined is indicated by a suffix: $\_b$, $\_n$, or $\_a$, respectively. 
     549They are updated at each model time step. 
     550The initial fixed reference coordinate system is held in variable names with a $\_0$ suffix. 
     551When the linear free surface option is used (\np[=.true.]{ln_linssh}{ln\_linssh}), 
     552\textit{before}, \textit{now} and \textit{after} arrays are initially set to 
     553their reference counterpart and remain fixed. 
     554 
     555%% ================================================================================================= 
     556\subsubsection{Required fields} 
     557\label{sec:DOM_zgr_fields} 
     558 
     559The explicit specification of a range of fields related to the vertical grid are required for 
     560the definition of a configuration. 
     561These include: 
     562 
     563\begin{clines} 
     564int    ln_zco, ln_zps, ln_sco            /* flags for z-coord, z-coord with partial steps and s-coord    */ 
     565int    ln_isfcav                         /* flag  for ice shelf cavities                                 */ 
     566double e3t_1d, e3w_1d                    /* reference vertical scale factors at T and W points           */ 
     567double e3t_0, e3u_0, e3v_0, e3f_0, e3w_0 /* vertical scale factors 3D coordinate at T,U,V,F and W points */ 
     568double e3uw_0, e3vw_0                    /* vertical scale factors 3D coordinate at UW and VW points     */ 
     569int    bottom_level, top_level           /* last wet T-points, 1st wet T-points (for ice shelf cavities) */ 
     570                                         /* For reference:                                               */ 
     571float  bathy_metry                       /* bathymetry used in setting top and bottom levels             */ 
     572\end{clines} 
     573 
     574This set of vertical metrics is sufficient to describe the initial depth and thickness of 
     575every gridcell in the model regardless of the choice of vertical coordinate. 
     576With constant z-levels, e3 metrics will be uniform across each horizontal level. 
     577In the partial step case each e3 at the \jp{bottom\_level} 
     578(and, possibly, \jp{top\_level} if ice cavities are present) 
     579may vary from its horizontal neighbours. 
     580And, in s-coordinates, variations can occur throughout the water column. 
     581With the non-linear free-surface, all the coordinates behave more like the s-coordinate in that 
     582variations occur throughout the water column with displacements related to the sea surface height. 
     583These variations are typically much smaller than those arising from bottom fitted coordinates. 
     584The values for vertical metrics supplied in the domain configuration file can be considered as 
     585those arising from a flat sea surface with zero elevation. 
     586 
     587The \jp{bottom\_level} and \jp{top\_level} 2D arrays define 
     588the \jp{bottom\_level} and top wet levels in each grid column. 
     589Without ice cavities, \jp{top\_level} is essentially a land mask (0 on land; 1 everywhere else). 
     590With ice cavities, \jp{top\_level} determines the first wet point below the overlying ice shelf. 
     591 
     592%% ================================================================================================= 
     593\subsubsection{Level bathymetry and mask} 
     594\label{subsec:DOM_msk} 
     595 
     596From \jp{top\_level} and \jp{bottom\_level} fields, the mask fields are defined as follows: 
    373597\begin{align*} 
    374    \lambda_t &\equiv \text{glamt} =      \lambda (i      ) 
    375   &\varphi_t &\equiv \text{gphit} =      \varphi (j      ) \\ 
    376    \lambda_u &\equiv \text{glamu} =      \lambda (i + 1/2) 
    377   &\varphi_u &\equiv \text{gphiu} =      \varphi (j      ) \\ 
    378    \lambda_v &\equiv \text{glamv} =      \lambda (i      ) 
    379   &\varphi_v &\equiv \text{gphiv} =      \varphi (j + 1/2) \\ 
    380    \lambda_f &\equiv \text{glamf} =      \lambda (i + 1/2) 
    381   &\varphi_f &\equiv \text{gphif} =      \varphi (j + 1/2) \\ 
    382    e_{1t}    &\equiv \text{e1t}   = r_a |\lambda'(i      ) \; \cos\varphi(j      ) | 
    383   &e_{2t}    &\equiv \text{e2t}   = r_a |\varphi'(j      )                         | \\ 
    384    e_{1u}    &\equiv \text{e1t}   = r_a |\lambda'(i + 1/2) \; \cos\varphi(j      ) | 
    385   &e_{2u}    &\equiv \text{e2t}   = r_a |\varphi'(j      )                         | \\ 
    386    e_{1v}    &\equiv \text{e1t}   = r_a |\lambda'(i      ) \; \cos\varphi(j + 1/2) | 
    387   &e_{2v}    &\equiv \text{e2t}   = r_a |\varphi'(j + 1/2)                         | \\ 
    388    e_{1f}    &\equiv \text{e1t}   = r_a |\lambda'(i + 1/2) \; \cos\varphi(j + 1/2) | 
    389   &e_{2f}    &\equiv \text{e2t}   = r_a |\varphi'(j + 1/2)                         | 
     598  tmask(i,j,k) &= 
     599  \begin{cases} 
     600    0 &\text{if $                             k <    top\_level(i,j)$} \\ 
     601    1 &\text{if $     bottom\_level(i,j) \leq k \leq top\_level(i,j)$} \\ 
     602    0 &\text{if $k >  bottom\_level(i,j)                            $} 
     603  \end{cases} \\ 
     604  umask(i,j,k) &= tmask(i,j,k) * tmask(i + 1,j,    k) \\ 
     605  vmask(i,j,k) &= tmask(i,j,k) * tmask(i    ,j + 1,k) \\ 
     606  fmask(i,j,k) &= tmask(i,j,k) * tmask(i + 1,j,    k) * tmask(i,j,k) * tmask(i + 1,j,    k) \\ 
     607  wmask(i,j,k) &= tmask(i,j,k) * tmask(i    ,j,k - 1) \\ 
     608  \text{with~} wmask(i,j,1) &= tmask(i,j,1) 
    390609\end{align*} 
    391 where the last letter of each computational name indicates the grid point considered and 
    392 $r_a$ is the earth radius (defined in \mdl{phycst} along with all universal constants). 
    393 Note that the horizontal position of and scale factors at $w$-points are exactly equal to those of $t$-points, 
    394 thus no specific arrays are defined at $w$-points. 
    395  
    396 Note that the definition of the scale factors 
    397 (\ie as the analytical first derivative of the transformation that 
    398 gives $(\lambda,\varphi,z)$ as a function of $(i,j,k)$) 
    399 is specific to the \NEMO model \citep{Marti_al_JGR92}. 
    400 As an example, $e_{1t}$ is defined locally at a $t$-point, 
    401 whereas many other models on a C grid choose to define such a scale factor as 
    402 the distance between the $U$-points on each side of the $t$-point. 
    403 Relying on an analytical transformation has two advantages: 
    404 firstly, there is no ambiguity in the scale factors appearing in the discrete equations, 
    405 since they are first introduced in the continuous equations; 
    406 secondly, analytical transformations encourage good practice by the definition of smoothly varying grids 
    407 (rather than allowing the user to set arbitrary jumps in thickness between adjacent layers) \citep{Treguier1996}. 
    408 An example of the effect of such a choice is shown in \autoref{fig:zgr_e3}.

    441 can be saved in files if \np{nn\_msh} $\not = 0$ (namelist variable in \ngn{namdom}). 
    442 This can be particularly useful for plots and off-line diagnostics. 
    443 In some cases, the user may choose to make a local modification of a scale factor in the code. 
    444 This is the case in global configurations when restricting the width of a specific strait 
    445 (usually a one-grid-point strait that happens to be too wide due to insufficient model resolution). 
    446 An example is Gibraltar Strait in the ORCA2 configuration. 
    447 When such modifications are done, 
    448 the output grid written when \np{nn\_msh} $\not = 0$ is no more equal to the input grid.

    489 The choice of a vertical coordinate, even if it is made through \ngn{namzgr} namelist parameters,  
    490 must be done once of all at the beginning of an experiment. 
    491 It is not intended as an option which can be enabled or disabled in the middle of an experiment. 
    492 Three main choices are offered (\autoref{fig:z_zps_s_sps}): 
    493 $z$-coordinate with full step bathymetry (\np{ln\_zco}~\forcode{= .true.}), 
    494 $z$-coordinate with partial step bathymetry (\np{ln\_zps}~\forcode{= .true.}), 
    495 or generalized, $s$-coordinate (\np{ln\_sco}~\forcode{= .true.}). 
    496 Hybridation of the three main coordinates are available: 
    497 $s-z$ or $s-zps$ coordinate (\autoref{fig:z_zps_s_sps} and \autoref{fig:z_zps_s_sps}). 
    498 By default a non-linear free surface is used: the coordinate follow the time-variation of the free surface so that 
    499 the transformation is time dependent: $z(i,j,k,t)$ (\autoref{fig:z_zps_s_sps}). 
    500 When a linear free surface is assumed (\np{ln\_linssh}~\forcode{= .true.}), 
    501 the vertical coordinate are fixed in time, but the seawater can move up and down across the $z_0$ surface 
    502 (in other words, the top of the ocean in not a rigid-lid). 
    503 The last choice in terms of vertical coordinate concerns the presence (or not) in 
    504 the model domain of ocean cavities beneath ice shelves. 
    505 Setting \np{ln\_isfcav} to true allows to manage ocean cavities, otherwise they are filled in. 
    506 This option is currently only available in $z$- or $zps$-coordinate, 
    507 and partial step are also applied at the ocean/ice shelf interface. 
    508  
    509 Contrary to the horizontal grid, the vertical grid is computed in the code and no provision is made for 
    510 reading it from a file. 
    511 The only input file is the bathymetry (in meters) (\ifile{bathy\_meter}) 
    512 \footnote{ 
    513   N.B. in full step $z$-coordinate, a \ifile{bathy\_level} file can replace the \ifile{bathy\_meter} file, 
    514   so that the computation of the number of wet ocean point in each water column is by-passed}. 
    515 If \np{ln\_isfcav}~\forcode{= .true.}, an extra file input file (\ifile{isf\_draft\_meter}) describing 
    516 the ice shelf draft (in meters) is needed. 
    517  
    518 After reading the bathymetry, the algorithm for vertical grid definition differs between the different options: 
    519 \begin{description} 
    520 \item[\textit{zco}] 
    521   set a reference coordinate transformation $z_0(k)$, and set $z(i,j,k,t) = z_0(k)$. 
    522 \item[\textit{zps}] 
    523   set a reference coordinate transformation $z_0(k)$, and calculate the thickness of the deepest level at 
    524   each $(i,j)$ point using the bathymetry, to obtain the final three-dimensional depth and scale factor arrays. 
    525 \item[\textit{sco}] 
    526   smooth the bathymetry to fulfill the hydrostatic consistency criteria and 
    527   set the three-dimensional transformation. 
    528 \item[\textit{s-z} and \textit{s-zps}] 
    529   smooth the bathymetry to fulfill the hydrostatic consistency criteria and 
    530   set the three-dimensional transformation $z(i,j,k)$, 
    531   and possibly introduce masking of extra land points to better fit the original bathymetry file. 
    532 \end{description} 
    533 %%% 
    534 \gmcomment{   add the description of the smoothing:  envelop topography...} 
    535 %%% 
    536  
    537 Unless a linear free surface is used (\np{ln\_linssh}~\forcode{= .false.}), 
    538 the arrays describing the grid point depths and vertical scale factors are three set of 
    539 three dimensional arrays $(i,j,k)$ defined at \textit{before}, \textit{now} and \textit{after} time step. 
    540 The time at which they are defined is indicated by a suffix: $\_b$, $\_n$, or $\_a$, respectively. 
    541 They are updated at each model time step using a fixed reference coordinate system which 
    542 computer names have a $\_0$ suffix. 
    543 When the linear free surface option is used (\np{ln\_linssh}~\forcode{= .true.}), \textit{before}, 
    544 \textit{now} and \textit{after} arrays are simply set one for all to their reference counterpart.

    551  
    552 Three options are possible for defining the bathymetry, according to the namelist variable \np{nn\_bathy} 
    553 (found in \ngn{namdom} namelist):  
    554 \begin{description} 
    555 \item[\np{nn\_bathy}~\forcode{= 0}]: 
    556   a flat-bottom domain is defined. 
    557   The total depth $z_w (jpk)$ is given by the coordinate transformation. 
    558   The domain can either be a closed basin or a periodic channel depending on the parameter \np{jperio}. 
    559 \item[\np{nn\_bathy}~\forcode{= -1}]: 
    560   a domain with a bump of topography one third of the domain width at the central latitude. 
    561   This is meant for the "EEL-R5" configuration, a periodic or open boundary channel with a seamount. 
    562 \item[\np{nn\_bathy}~\forcode{= 1}]: 
    563   read a bathymetry and ice shelf draft (if needed). 
    564   The \ifile{bathy\_meter} file (Netcdf format) provides the ocean depth (positive, in meters) at 
    565   each grid point of the model grid. 
    566   The bathymetry is usually built by interpolating a standard bathymetry product (\eg ETOPO2) onto 
    567   the horizontal ocean mesh. 
    568   Defining the bathymetry also defines the coastline: where the bathymetry is zero, 
    569   no model levels are defined (all levels are masked). 
    570  
    571   The \ifile{isfdraft\_meter} file (Netcdf format) provides the ice shelf draft (positive, in meters) at 
    572   each grid point of the model grid. 
    573   This file is only needed if \np{ln\_isfcav}~\forcode{= .true.}. 
    574   Defining the ice shelf draft will also define the ice shelf edge and the grounding line position. 
    575 \end{description} 
    576  
    577 When a global ocean is coupled to an atmospheric model it is better to represent all large water bodies 
    578 (\eg great lakes, Caspian sea...) even if the model resolution does not allow their communication with 
    579 the rest of the ocean. 
     610 
     611Note that, without ice shelves cavities, 
     612masks at $t-$ and $w-$points are identical with the numerical indexing used 
     613(\autoref{subsec:DOM_Num_Index}). 
     614Nevertheless, 
     615$wmask$ are required with ocean cavities to deal with the top boundary (ice shelf/ocean interface) 
     616exactly in the same way as for the bottom boundary. 
     617 
     618%% The specification of closed lateral boundaries requires that at least 
     619%% the first and last rows and columns of the \textit{mbathy} array are set to zero. 
     620%% In the particular case of an east-west cyclical boundary condition, \textit{mbathy} has its last column equal to 
     621%% the second one and its first column equal to the last but one (and so too the mask arrays)

     629When a global ocean is coupled to an atmospheric model it is better to

     631the model resolution does not allow their communication with the rest of the ocean. 
    580632This is unnecessary when the ocean is forced by fixed atmospheric conditions, 
    581633so these seas can be removed from the ocean domain. 
    582 The user has the option to set the bathymetry in closed seas to zero (see \autoref{sec:MISC_closea}), 
    583 but the code has to be adapted to the user's configuration.

    606 The reference coordinate transformation $z_0(k)$ defines the arrays $gdept_0$ and $gdepw_0$ for $t$- and $w$-points, 
    607 respectively. 
    608 As indicated on \autoref{fig:index_vert} \jp{jpk} is the number of $w$-levels. 
    609 $gdepw_0(1)$ is the ocean surface. 
    610 There are at most \jp{jpk}-1 $t$-points inside the ocean, 
    611 the additional $t$-point at $jk = jpk$ is below the sea floor and is not used. 
    612 The vertical location of $w$- and $t$-levels is defined from the analytic expression of the depth $z_0(k)$ whose 
    613 analytical derivative with respect to $k$ provides the vertical scale factors. 
    614 The user must provide the analytical expression of both $z_0$ and its first derivative with respect to $k$. 
    615 This is done in routine \mdl{domzgr} through statement functions, 
    616 using parameters provided in the \ngn{namcfg} namelist. 
    617  
    618 It is possible to define a simple regular vertical grid by giving zero stretching (\np{ppacr}~\forcode{= 0}). 
    619 In that case, the parameters \jp{jpk} (number of $w$-levels) and 
    620 \np{pphmax} (total ocean depth in meters) fully define the grid. 
    621  
    622 For climate-related studies it is often desirable to concentrate the vertical resolution near the ocean surface. 
    623 The following function is proposed as a standard for a $z$-coordinate (with either full or partial steps):  
    624 \begin{gather} 
    625   \label{eq:DOM_zgr_ana_1} 
    626     z_0  (k) = h_{sur} - h_0 \; k - \; h_1 \; \log  \big[ \cosh ((k - h_{th}) / h_{cr}) \big] \\ 
    627     e_3^0(k) = \lt|    - h_0      -    h_1 \; \tanh \big[        (k - h_{th}) / h_{cr}  \big] \rt| 
    628 \end{gather} 
    629 where $k = 1$ to \jp{jpk} for $w$-levels and $k = 1$ to $k = 1$ for $T-$levels. 
    630 Such an expression allows us to define a nearly uniform vertical location of levels at the ocean top and bottom with 
    631 a smooth hyperbolic tangent transition in between (\autoref{fig:zgr}). 
    632  
    633 If the ice shelf cavities are opened (\np{ln\_isfcav}~\forcode{= .true.}), the definition of $z_0$ is the same. 
    634 However, definition of $e_3^0$ at $t$- and $w$-points is respectively changed to: 
    635 \begin{equation} 
    636   \label{eq:DOM_zgr_ana_2} 
    637   \begin{split} 
    638     e_3^T(k) &= z_W (k + 1) - z_W (k    ) \\ 
    639     e_3^W(k) &= z_T (k    ) - z_T (k - 1) 
    640   \end{split} 
    641 \end{equation} 
    642 This formulation decrease the self-generated circulation into the ice shelf cavity  
    643 (which can, in extreme case, leads to blow up).\\ 
    644   
    645 The most used vertical grid for ORCA2 has $10~m$ ($500~m$) resolution in the surface (bottom) layers and 
    646 a depth which varies from 0 at the sea surface to a minimum of $-5000~m$. 
    647 This leads to the following conditions: 
    648 \begin{equation} 
    649   \label{eq:DOM_zgr_coef} 
    650   \begin{array}{ll} 
    651     e_3 (1   + 1/2) =  10. & z(1  ) =     0. \\ 
    652     e_3 (jpk - 1/2) = 500. & z(jpk) = -5000. 
    653   \end{array} 
    654 \end{equation} 
    655  
    656 With the choice of the stretching $h_{cr} = 3$ and the number of levels \jp{jpk}~$= 31$, 
    657 the four coefficients $h_{sur}$, $h_0$, $h_1$, and $h_{th}$ in 
    658 \autoref{eq:DOM_zgr_ana_2} have been determined such that 
    659 \autoref{eq:DOM_zgr_coef} is satisfied, through an optimisation procedure using a bisection method. 
    660 For the first standard ORCA2 vertical grid this led to the following values: 
    661 $h_{sur} = 4762.96$, $h_0 = 255.58, h_1 = 245.5813$, and $h_{th} = 21.43336$. 
    662 The resulting depths and scale factors as a function of the model levels are shown in 
    663 \autoref{fig:zgr} and given in \autoref{tab:orca_zgr}. 
    664 Those values correspond to the parameters \np{ppsur}, \np{ppa0}, \np{ppa1}, \np{ppkth} in \ngn{namcfg} namelist. 
    665  
    666 Rather than entering parameters $h_{sur}$, $h_0$, and $h_1$ directly, it is possible to recalculate them. 
    667 In that case the user sets \np{ppsur}~$=$~\np{ppa0}~$=$~\np{ppa1}~$= 999999$., 
    668 in \ngn{namcfg} namelist, and specifies instead the four following parameters: 
    669 \begin{itemize} 
    670 \item 
    671   \np{ppacr}~$= h_{cr}$: stretching factor (nondimensional). 
    672   The larger \np{ppacr}, the smaller the stretching. 
    673   Values from $3$ to $10$ are usual. 
    674 \item 
    675   \np{ppkth}~$= h_{th}$: is approximately the model level at which maximum stretching occurs 
    676   (nondimensional, usually of order 1/2 or 2/3 of \jp{jpk}) 
    677 \item 
    678   \np{ppdzmin}: minimum thickness for the top layer (in meters). 
    679 \item 
    680   \np{pphmax}: total depth of the ocean (meters). 
    681 \end{itemize} 
    682 As an example, for the $45$ layers used in the DRAKKAR configuration those parameters are: 
    683 \jp{jpk}~$= 46$, \np{ppacr}~$= 9$, \np{ppkth}~$= 23.563$, \np{ppdzmin}~$= 6~m$, \np{pphmax}~$= 5750~m$.

    774 In $z$-coordinate partial step, 
    775 the depths of the model levels are defined by the reference analytical function $z_0(k)$ as described in 
    776 the previous section, \textit{except} in the bottom layer. 
    777 The thickness of the bottom layer is allowed to vary as a function of geographical location $(\lambda,\varphi)$ to 
    778 allow a better representation of the bathymetry, especially in the case of small slopes 
    779 (where the bathymetry varies by less than one level thickness from one grid point to the next). 
    780 The reference layer thicknesses $e_{3t}^0$ have been defined in the absence of bathymetry. 
    781 With partial steps, layers from 1 to \jp{jpk}-2 can have a thickness smaller than $e_{3t}(jk)$. 
    782 The model deepest layer (\jp{jpk}-1) is allowed to have either a smaller or larger thickness than $e_{3t}(jpk)$: 
    783 the maximum thickness allowed is $2*e_{3t}(jpk - 1)$. 
    784 This has to be kept in mind when specifying values in \ngn{namdom} namelist, 
    785 as the maximum depth \np{pphmax} in partial steps: 
    786 for example, with \np{pphmax}~$= 5750~m$ for the DRAKKAR 45 layer grid, 
    787 the maximum ocean depth allowed is actually $6000~m$ (the default thickness $e_{3t}(jpk - 1)$ being $250~m$). 
    788 Two variables in the namdom namelist are used to define the partial step vertical grid. 
    789 The mimimum water thickness (in meters) allowed for a cell partially filled with bathymetry at level jk is 
    790 the minimum of \np{rn\_e3zps\_min} (thickness in meters, usually $20~m$) or $e_{3t}(jk)*$\np{rn\_e3zps\_rat} 
    791 (a fraction, usually 10\%, of the default thickness $e_{3t}(jk)$).

    804 Options are defined in \ngn{namzgr\_sco}. 
    805 In $s$-coordinate (\np{ln\_sco}~\forcode{= .true.}), the depth and thickness of the model levels are defined from 
    806 the product of a depth field and either a stretching function or its derivative, respectively: 
    807  
    808 \begin{align*} 
    809   % \label{eq:DOM_sco_ana} 
    810   z(k)   &= h(i,j) \; z_0 (k) \\ 
    811   e_3(k) &= h(i,j) \; z_0'(k) 
    812 \end{align*} 
    813  
    814 where $h$ is the depth of the last $w$-level ($z_0(k)$) defined at the $t$-point location in the horizontal and 
    815 $z_0(k)$ is a function which varies from $0$ at the sea surface to $1$ at the ocean bottom. 
    816 The depth field $h$ is not necessary the ocean depth, 
    817 since a mixed step-like and bottom-following representation of the topography can be used 
    818 (\autoref{fig:z_zps_s_sps}) or an envelop bathymetry can be defined (\autoref{fig:z_zps_s_sps}). 
    819 The namelist parameter \np{rn\_rmax} determines the slope at which 
    820 the terrain-following coordinate intersects the sea bed and becomes a pseudo z-coordinate. 
    821 The coordinate can also be hybridised by specifying \np{rn\_sbot\_min} and \np{rn\_sbot\_max} as 
    822 the minimum and maximum depths at which the terrain-following vertical coordinate is calculated. 
    823  
    824 Options for stretching the coordinate are provided as examples, 
    825 but care must be taken to ensure that the vertical stretch used is appropriate for the application. 
    826  
    827 The original default NEMO s-coordinate stretching is available if neither of the other options are specified as true 
    828 (\np{ln\_s\_SH94}~\forcode{= .false.} and \np{ln\_s\_SF12}~\forcode{= .false.}). 
    829 This uses a depth independent $\tanh$ function for the stretching \citep{Madec_al_JPO96}: 
    830  
    831 \[ 
    832   z = s_{min} + C (s) (H - s_{min}) 
    833   % \label{eq:SH94_1} 
    834 \] 
    835  
    836 where $s_{min}$ is the depth at which the $s$-coordinate stretching starts and 
    837 allows a $z$-coordinate to placed on top of the stretched coordinate, 
    838 and $z$ is the depth (negative down from the asea surface). 
    839 \begin{gather*} 
    840   s = - \frac{k}{n - 1} \quad \text{and} \quad 0 \leq k \leq n - 1

    842  \\ 
    843   % \label{eq:DOM_sco_function} 
    844   C(s) = \frac{[\tanh(\theta \, (s + b)) - \tanh(\theta \, b)]}{2 \; \sinh(\theta)} 
    845 \end{gather*} 
    846  
    847 A stretching function, 
    848 modified from the commonly used \citet{Song_Haidvogel_JCP94} stretching (\np{ln\_s\_SH94}~\forcode{= .true.}), 
    849 is also available and is more commonly used for shelf seas modelling: 
    850  
    851 \[ 
    852   C(s) =   (1 - b) \frac{\sinh(\theta s)}{\sinh(\theta)} 
    853          + b       \frac{\tanh \lt[ \theta \lt(s + \frac{1}{2} \rt) \rt] -   \tanh \lt( \frac{\theta}{2} \rt)} 
    854                         {                                                  2 \tanh \lt( \frac{\theta}{2} \rt)}

    871 where $H_c$ is the critical depth (\np{rn\_hc}) at which the coordinate transitions from pure $\sigma$ to 
    872 the stretched coordinate, and $\theta$ (\np{rn\_theta}) and $b$ (\np{rn\_bb}) are the surface and 
    873 bottom control parameters such that $0 \leqslant \theta \leqslant 20$, and $0 \leqslant b \leqslant 1$. 
    874 $b$ has been designed to allow surface and/or bottom increase of the vertical resolution 
    875 (\autoref{fig:sco_function}). 
    876  
    877 Another example has been provided at version 3.5 (\np{ln\_s\_SF12}) that allows a fixed surface resolution in 
    878 an analytical terrain-following stretching \citet{Siddorn_Furner_OM12}. 
    879 In this case the a stretching function $\gamma$ is defined such that: 
    880  
    881 \begin{equation} 
    882   z = - \gamma h \quad \text{with} \quad 0 \leq \gamma \leq 1 
    883   % \label{eq:z} 
    884 \end{equation} 
    885  
    886 The function is defined with respect to $\sigma$, the unstretched terrain-following coordinate: 
    887  
    888 \begin{gather*} 
    889   % \label{eq:DOM_gamma_deriv} 
    890   \gamma =   A \lt( \sigma   - \frac{1}{2} (\sigma^2     + f (\sigma)) \rt) 
    891            + B \lt( \sigma^3 - f           (\sigma) \rt) + f (\sigma)       \\ 
    892   \intertext{Where:} 
    893   % \label{eq:DOM_gamma} 
    894   f(\sigma) = (\alpha + 2) \sigma^{\alpha + 1} - (\alpha + 1) \sigma^{\alpha + 2} 
    895   \quad \text{and} \quad \sigma = \frac{k}{n - 1} 
    896 \end{gather*} 
    897  
    898 This gives an analytical stretching of $\sigma$ that is solvable in $A$ and $B$ as a function of 
    899 the user prescribed stretching parameter $\alpha$ (\np{rn\_alpha}) that stretches towards 
    900 the surface ($\alpha > 1.0$) or the bottom ($\alpha < 1.0$) and 
    901 user prescribed surface (\np{rn\_zs}) and bottom depths. 
    902 The bottom cell depth in this example is given as a function of water depth: 
    903  
    904 \[ 
    905   % \label{eq:DOM_zb} 
    906   Z_b = h a + b 
    907 \] 
    908  
    909 where the namelist parameters \np{rn\_zb\_a} and \np{rn\_zb\_b} are $a$ and $b$ respectively.

    924  
    925 This gives a smooth analytical stretching in computational space that is constrained to 
    926 given specified surface and bottom grid cell thicknesses in real space. 
    927 This is not to be confused with the hybrid schemes that 
    928 superimpose geopotential coordinates on terrain following coordinates thus 
    929 creating a non-analytical vertical coordinate that 
    930 therefore may suffer from large gradients in the vertical resolutions. 
    931 This stretching is less straightforward to implement than the \citet{Song_Haidvogel_JCP94} stretching, 
    932 but has the advantage of resolving diurnal processes in deep water and has generally flatter slopes. 
    933  
    934 As with the \citet{Song_Haidvogel_JCP94} stretching the stretch is only applied at depths greater than 
    935 the critical depth $h_c$. 
    936 In this example two options are available in depths shallower than $h_c$, 
    937 with pure sigma being applied if the \np{ln\_sigcrit} is true and pure z-coordinates if it is false 
    938 (the z-coordinate being equal to the depths of the stretched coordinate at $h_c$). 
    939  
    940 Minimising the horizontal slope of the vertical coordinate is important in terrain-following systems as 
    941 large slopes lead to hydrostatic consistency. 
    942 A hydrostatic consistency parameter diagnostic following \citet{Haney1991} has been implemented, 
    943 and is output as part of the model mesh file at the start of the run.

    959 \label{subsec:DOM_msk} 
    960  
    961 Whatever the vertical coordinate used, the model offers the possibility of representing the bottom topography with 
    962 steps that follow the face of the model cells (step like topography) \citep{Madec_al_JPO96}. 
    963 The distribution of the steps in the horizontal is defined in a 2D integer array, mbathy, which 
    964 gives the number of ocean levels (\ie those that are not masked) at each $t$-point. 
    965 mbathy is computed from the meter bathymetry using the definiton of gdept as the number of $t$-points which 
    966 gdept $\leq$ bathy. 
    967  
    968 Modifications of the model bathymetry are performed in the \textit{bat\_ctl} routine (see \mdl{domzgr} module) after 
    969 mbathy is computed. 
    970 Isolated grid points that do not communicate with another ocean point at the same level are eliminated. 
    971  
    972 As for the representation of bathymetry, a 2D integer array, misfdep, is created. 
    973 misfdep defines the level of the first wet $t$-point. 
    974 All the cells between $k = 1$ and $misfdep(i,j) - 1$ are masked. 
    975 By default, $misfdep(:,:) = 1$ and no cells are masked. 
    976  
    977 In case of ice shelf cavities, modifications of the model bathymetry and ice shelf draft into  
    978 the cavities are performed in the \textit{zgr\_isf} routine. 
    979 The compatibility between ice shelf draft and bathymetry is checked. 
    980 All the locations where the isf cavity is thinnest than \np{rn\_isfhmin} meters are grounded (\ie masked). 
    981 If only one cell on the water column is opened at $t$-, $u$- or $v$-points, 
    982 the bathymetry or the ice shelf draft is dug to fit this constrain. 
    983 If the incompatibility is too strong (need to dig more than 1 cell), the cell is masked. 
    984  
    985 From the \textit{mbathy} and \textit{misfdep} array, the mask fields are defined as follows: 
    986 \begin{alignat*}{2} 
    987   tmask(i,j,k) &= &  & 
    988     \begin{cases} 
    989                   0 &\text{if $                  k  <    misfdep(i,j)$} \\ 
    990                   1 &\text{if $misfdep(i,j) \leq k \leq   mbathy(i,j)$} \\ 
    991                   0 &\text{if $                  k  >     mbathy(i,j)$} 
    992     \end{cases} 
    993   \\ 
    994   umask(i,j,k) &= &  &tmask(i,j,k) * tmask(i + 1,j,    k) \\ 
    995   vmask(i,j,k) &= &  &tmask(i,j,k) * tmask(i    ,j + 1,k) \\ 
    996   fmask(i,j,k) &= &  &tmask(i,j,k) * tmask(i + 1,j,    k) \\ 
    997                &  &* &tmask(i,j,k) * tmask(i + 1,j,    k) \\ 
    998   wmask(i,j,k) &= &  &tmask(i,j,k) * tmask(i    ,j,k - 1) \\ 
    999   \text{with~} wmask(i,j,1) &= & &tmask(i,j,1) 
    1000 \end{alignat*} 
    1001  
    1002 Note that, without ice shelves cavities, 
    1003 masks at $t-$ and $w-$points are identical with the numerical indexing used (\autoref{subsec:DOM_Num_Index}). 
    1004 Nevertheless, $wmask$ are required with ocean cavities to deal with the top boundary (ice shelf/ocean interface)  
    1005 exactly in the same way as for the bottom boundary. 
    1006  
    1007 The specification of closed lateral boundaries requires that at least 
    1008 the first and last rows and columns of the \textit{mbathy} array are set to zero. 
    1009 In the particular case of an east-west cyclical boundary condition, \textit{mbathy} has its last column equal to 
    1010 the second one and its first column equal to the last but one (and so too the mask arrays) 
    1011 (see \autoref{fig:LBC_jperio}).

     635set the bathymetry in closed seas to zero (see \autoref{sec:MISC_closea}) and to

     637The options are explained in \autoref{sec:MISC_closea} but 
     638it should be noted here that a successful use of these options requires 
     639appropriate mask fields to be present in the domain configuration file.

     652Most of the arrays relating to a particular ocean model configuration discussed in this chapter 
     653(grid-point position, scale factors) can be saved in a file if 
     654namelist parameter \np{ln_write_cfg}{ln\_write\_cfg} (namelist \nam{cfg}{cfg}) is set to 
     655\forcode{.true.}; 
     656the output filename is set through parameter \np{cn_domcfg_out}{cn\_domcfg\_out}. 
     657This is only really useful if 
     658the fields are computed in subroutines \mdl{usrdef\_hgr} or \mdl{usrdef\_zgr} and 
     659checking or confirmation is required. 
     660 
     661Alternatively, all the arrays relating to a particular ocean model configuration 
     662(grid-point position, scale factors, depths and masks) can be saved in 
     663a file called \texttt{mesh\_mask} if 
     664namelist parameter \np{ln_meshmask}{ln\_meshmask} (namelist \nam{dom}{dom}) is set to 
     665\forcode{.true.}. 
     666This file contains additional fields that can be useful for post-processing applications.

    131139The vertical velocity is computed by an upward integration of the horizontal divergence starting at the bottom,

    149157The upper boundary condition applies at a fixed level $z=0$.

    514495For example, the evaluation of $u_T^{ubs} $ is done as follows: 
    515496\begin{equation} 
    516   \label{eq:dynadv_ubs} 
     497  \label{eq:DYN_adv_ubs} 
    517498  u_T^{ubs} =\overline u ^i-\;\frac{1}{6} 
    518499  \begin{cases} 
     
    522503\end{equation} 
    523504where $u"_{i+1/2} =\delta_{i+1/2} \left[ {\delta_i \left[ u \right]} \right]$. 
    524 This results in a dissipatively dominant (\ie hyper-diffusive) truncation error 
    525 \citep{Shchepetkin_McWilliams_OM05}. 
    526 The overall performance of the advection scheme is similar to that reported in \citet{Farrow1995}.

     507The overall performance of the advection scheme is similar to that reported in \citet{farrow.stevens_JPO95}. 
    527508It is a relatively good compromise between accuracy and smoothness. 
    528509It is not a \emph{positive} scheme, meaning that false extrema are permitted. 
    529510But the amplitudes of the false extrema are significantly reduced over those in the centred second order method. 
    530 As the scheme already includes a diffusion component, it can be used without explicit lateral diffusion on momentum  
    531 (\ie \np{ln\_dynldf\_lap}\forcode{ = }\np{ln\_dynldf\_bilap}\forcode{ = .false.}), 
     511As the scheme already includes a diffusion component, it can be used without explicit lateral diffusion on momentum 
     512(\ie\ \np[=]{ln_dynldf_lap}{ln\_dynldf\_lap}\np[=.false.]{ln_dynldf_bilap}{ln\_dynldf\_bilap}), 
    532513and it is recommended to do so.

    534515The UBS scheme is not used in all directions. 
    535 In the vertical, the centred $2^{nd}$ order evaluation of the advection is preferred, \ie $u_{uw}^{ubs}$ and 
    536 $u_{vw}^{ubs}$ in \autoref{eq:dynadv_cen2} are used.

     521For stability reasons, the first term in (\autoref{eq:DYN_adv_ubs}), 
    541522which corresponds to a second order centred scheme, is evaluated using the \textit{now} velocity (centred in time), 
    542523while the second term, which is the diffusion part of the scheme, 
    543524is evaluated using the \textit{before} velocity (forward in time). 
    544 This is discussed by \citet{Webb_al_JAOT98} in the context of the Quick advection scheme. 
     525This is discussed by \citet{webb.de-cuevas.ea_JAOT98} in the context of the Quick advection scheme.

    546527Note that the UBS and QUICK (Quadratic Upstream Interpolation for Convective Kinematics) schemes only differ by 
    547528one coefficient. 
    548 Replacing $1/6$ by $1/8$ in (\autoref{eq:dynadv_ubs}) leads to the QUICK advection scheme \citep{Webb_al_JAOT98}. 
     529Replacing $1/6$ by $1/8$ in (\autoref{eq:DYN_adv_ubs}) leads to the QUICK advection scheme \citep{webb.de-cuevas.ea_JAOT98}. 
    549530This option is not available through a namelist parameter, since the $1/6$ coefficient is hard coded. 
    550531Nevertheless it is quite easy to make the substitution in the \mdl{dynadv\_ubs} module and obtain a QUICK scheme. 
     
    553534there is also the possibility of using a $4^{th}$ order evaluation of the advective velocity as in ROMS. 
    554535This is an error and should be suppressed soon.
