Welcome to NEMO home page!

NEMO (Nucleus for European Modelling of the Ocean) is a state-of-the-art modelling framework for research activities and forecasting services in ocean and climate sciences, developed in a sustainable way by the NEMO European consortium since 2008.

This page intends to help you to get started using the NEMO platform and to introduce you to the different levels of information available. It starts here with NEMO release 4.2.0.

Reminder: Our Former web platform forge (SVN+Trac) contains the previous documentation and releases made available from the beginning of the project up to of NEMO 4.0.

Getting started

Getting your hands on NEMO: the first steps are described in detail in the NEMO users' guide . This explains how to download the code, build the environment, create the executable, and perform a first integration.

If you are already using a previous release of NEMO, please refer to the Migration Guide which aims to help you to make the move to 4.2.0.

The above users guides cover in detail what is available from gitlab and supported by NEMO System Team. Aside from this web platform, a set of test cases is also available from the Test case repository . These test cases can be useful for students, outreach, and exploring specific aspects of NEMO with light configurations. The web page also allows you to submit test cases you have developed and want to share with the community. Feel free to contribute!

Project documentation

Reference manuals fully describing NEMO for the three main component

  • |ICE| simulates sea-ice {thermo}dynamics, brine inclusions and subgrid-scale thickness variations (./src/ICE)
  • |MBG| models the {on,off}line oceanic tracers transport and biogeochemical processes (./src/TOP)

are available from Zenodo:
