metno/metroms: Version 0.4.1

Description

METROMS is a coupled ocean (ROMS) and sea ice (CICE) modelling framework (coupled through MCT) and has seen significant use in operational ocean and sea ice modelling at MET Norway. The system has also seen increased interest from the rest of the modelling community. From this work, a number of improvements to the code base have been made and thus motivating the release of this version. Below are the main changes since version v0.3 (10.5281/zenodo.1046114).

Changes related to the model code itself:

  • support for time-varying open boundary conditions in CICE (see https://github.com/metno/metroms/pull/21)
  • support for data assimilation of sea ice concentration via COIN algorithm in CICE (see https://github.com/metno/metroms/pull/31)
  • support for hourly restart file dump in CICE (see https://github.com/metno/metroms/pull/35)
  • support for CICE to handle relative humidty
  • addition of new ROMS source code to the repository (SVN version 1041)
  • support for reading of stresses from forcing file(s) in ROMS

Changes to the surrounding scripting framework:

  • added python tool to compute wind stress
  • added python tool generate CICE boundary files
  • general improvements to metroms/tools/*.py scripts
  • extensive work on compiling + running scripts to support various HPC's, this includes makefiles, build scripts, modules etc.
  • various bugfixes
