Building pan-Arctic grid #23

Open proctorc opened 2 years ago

proctorc commented 2 years ago

I am new to ROMS and modeling and am trying to use gridtools to create a grid for the Arctic. I am able to use the examples to generate netcdf files with variables: x, y, dx, dy, andgle_dx, area. Is this sufficient to use in ROMS? Also, it seems like gridtools is tailored to MOM6, and ROMS has an extra layer of rho points around the outside of the grid. How would I convert the MOM6 grid from the gridtools scripts to a ROMS grid? Any help or guidance would be appreciated.

Thanks, Claudette

This feature needs to be completed. Gridtools can create MOM6 grids and convert from ROMS grid to MOM6. Need to look into what it will take to finish the writing portion of a ROMS grid.
