BGC coarsening with OASIS
Context
-
Reference configuration/test case (to add, chosen or used as template) -
Modifications of versioned files: Fortran routines ( *.[Ffh]90), namelists (namelist\_*cfg), outputs settings (*.xml), ... -
Additional dependencies -
New datasets -
Tools (grids, OASIS interpolation weights)
Proposal
We propose to split NEMO into two executables (ocean/ice on one hand, BGC on the other hand), reduce BGC resolution and exchange variables via OASIS. Implementation is done in collaboration with CERFACS, Météo-France, Mercator and MetOffice. We share algorithm and developments with the dev_agrif_coarsening branch. This development makes part of the Earth System Modelling Optim-ESM Horizon Europe project.
