Feature request: MPAS-O (o for awesome Ocean) #769

Open hkershaw-brown opened 2 weeks ago

hkershaw-brown commented 2 weeks ago

Use case

MPAS-O dart interface for E3SM

Is your feature request related to a problem?

There is an MPAS-O interface, but it is not a Manhattan interface. There is a reasonable chance that MPAS-O has moved on since this interface was developed. Also I am not sure if there is a difference between the ocean core for MPAS NCAR and MPAS E3SM.

Describe your preferred solution

I'd prefer it if someone has already written this for Earthworks or other project that uses MPAS-O. This issue is to keep notes on any DART-MPAS-O interfaces out there that have not made it back to the DART repo.

Describe any alternatives you have considered

Write the thing. Not sure of the urgency of this, the E3SM atmosphere (EAM) is being worked on first.

Looking at the mpas_ocn model_mod, it has not been used for ocean.
