We will carry out a control experiment with a duration of six days, starting on 25 Sep 2016 00h00, using the model with cubic octahedral grid at horizontal resolution T399Tco399.

Preparing the Model

In your working group you should login to the RACC cluster and login to the ECMWF HPCF with your training account ID.

...

In a previous exercise you have called the my43 script which in turn has copied further scripts to your local ~/bin directory.  If you have not participated in yesterday's practical please get in touch so we can ensure your account is correctly set up.

You should now use the script getkarl to copy the NAWDEX control experiment to your training account. This script can be called from any directory.

This directory contains now not only initial files for the atmospheric model (ICM*INI*) but and also input files for the wave model. 

...

rtables  contains input files for the model's radiation scheme.

run.ccb  is the model run script which will be submitted to the PBS job scheduler.  It calls oifs_run and loads all the module files and defines shell variable required for the runtime environment of the model.  Therefore the oifs-config.ccb.sh file is not needed in this case.

oifs_run  is a generic run script for the model.  It is possible to pass arguments to this script which is done by run.ccb.  At the end of the model experiment this script moves the model output to a specific output directory (which is numbered according to the OIFS_RUN variable).  Also, command line grib tools are used to extract selected model fields into separate files.
