Merge changes from MOM6-CICE6

[anton-seaice]

I believe this is correct, but we need to merge #23 first to confirm.

Oops. Thanks. Ill fix tomorrow.

I can't see any other mistakes - all the fsd history parameters are unchanged ?

all the fsd history parameters are unchanged ?

The following history parameters are unchanged, however restart_fsd = .false. is ommited not sure what it actually does

&icefields_fsd_nml
    f_fsdrad       = 'md' 

[anton-seaice]

Ok thanks - yes we need that too to get it to read fsd from the cice restart file!

Yeah I think that is fine. Its not perfect. But the ice will be kinda of close, and the ice will stabilise much quicker than the ocean will. So it seems ok from that perspective.

Ah. This doesn't run anymore:

 (abort_ice)ABORTED: 
 (abort_ice) called from ice_restart.F90
 (abort_ice) line number          744
 (abort_ice) error = 
 (ice_pio_check)NetCDF: Variable not found, (read_restart_field) ERROR: missing 
 varid fsd001

Because our ic file doesnt include fsd

We must have missed this in the RYF config too.

(Not sure how to make the best fsd initial conditions, or whether to fix this some other way!)

Maybe we can set the ice_ic to default for now?, I think fsd initial conditions cannot be generated from CICE5?

Yes, restart_fsd is set to false in RYF.

[anton-seaice]

I think setting ice_ic to default would be troublesome, it gives a very unrealistic ice area. We could leave restart_fsd as false and create a new issue to resolve it.

[anton-seaice]

Ah. It looks like restart_fsd=.false. was correct. If the runtype is continue, this gets turned on in the driver, otherwise it initialises internally:

https://github.com/CICE-Consortium/CICE/blob/0af031d785d3bc622cd19af48a2e9465b5abe9a0/cicecore/drivers/nuopc/cmeps/CICE_InitMod.F90#L373

This doesn't run anymore:

(abort_ice)ABORTED: (abort_ice) called from ice_restart.F90 (abort_ice) line number 744 (abort_ice) error = (ice_pio_check)NetCDF: Variable not found, (read_restart_field) ERROR: missing varid fsd001

But when you set restart_fsd = true, you're getting the above missing variable error right?

! floe size distribution if (tr_fsd) then if (trim(runtype) == 'continue') restart_fsd = .true. if (restart_fsd) then call read_restart_fsd

According to the above code even when we set restart_fsd = .true., it should run right? "

[anton-seaice]

If runtype=initial (and restart_fsd=.false.) then it will initialise fsd using the init_fsd call

If runtype=continue or restart_fsd=.true. in ice_in, then it will try to read fsd from the restart/ic file

[anton-seaice]

This works and generates output and history files for each component. Doesn't restart due to still pointing to a binary before https://github.com/COSIMA/access-om3/pull/160 was included
