CO9_AMM15: EOS 80 -> TEOS10 #18

Open endaodea opened 3 years ago

Ideally we want to be running with EOS 2010. Up to now have been replicating what we had in 36 CO7 which was still using EOS 80.

If we want to run from existing data (restarts etc) then we need a conversion to be done.

We also need to think about outputs and making like for like comparisons with existing data. (making appropriate conversions)

Worth noting in the 4.0.x field definitions e.g. sst can be either of: sst_pot for potential temperature (eos80) @or sst_con, Sea Surface conservative temperature and similarly for salinity sss_pra, For Practical salinity sss_abs for absolute.

Amy pointed me to a tool:

Below is the current location of the EOS80 to TEOS-10 conversion tool written by Dave (though I believe we are looking to centralise this, perhaps in the UKMO branch of the Paris repository).

Catherine and Dave (cc’d) might be able to give a little more information on running the tool.

Dave wrote the convert_TS tool based on the official teos-10 package ( http://www.teos-10.org/software.htm) Tool available here: xcel00: /home/d02/frcg/TEOS10/GSW-Fortran-3.05-6/convert_TS Cheers, Catherine
