Software Requirements

  • Fortran 90/95 and C compiler

  • MPI or OpenMP libraries

  • netCDF4 library linked with HDF5 and zip libraries and extended by the Fortran netCDF package (The netCDF4 package comes with the programs ncdump and nccopy)

  • UNIX utilities: make, ksh, uname, sed, awk, wget, etc.

  • For post-processing: Climate Data Operators (CDO) and netCDF Operators (NCO)

  • An ICON binary

Info

CCLM_SP uses netCDF I/O of COSMO-CLM

The starter package is written for the HRLE-4 Levante at DKRZ. Additional changes need to be applied on other machines. At DKRZ the Simple Linux Utility for Resource Management SLURM ist installed.

...

1. Copy the starter package from 🔑 RedC Downloads.
2. Unpack the starter package:

Code Block
languagebash
$ tar -xzvf cclm-sp-45.10.1.tgz
$ mv cclm-sp-45.1.10 yourpath/cclm-sp

3. Copy and unpack the supplementary data files for testing the starter package (the program wget needs to be installed on your system)

...

this results in a much faster compilation. Replace N by the number of requested processors.

Run the test examples

There are two tests, one for testing CCLM with GCM or reanalysis data as initial and boundary conditions (${SPDIR}/chain/gcm2cclm/sp001) and one for testing CCLM with coarse grid CCLM data as initial and boundary conditions (${SPDIR}/chain/cclm2cclm/sp002). Actually sp001 creates the necessary input data for sp002.

Before you start the experiment look for the following environment variables in the job_settings of sp001 and sp002 file and adopt them to your needs.

Code Block
languagebash
PROJECT_ACCOUNT=  # your project account
EMAIL_ADDRESS=    # your email address if you want to get information when your job crashes or finishes

Now you should be ready to start the first experiment:

...

Code Block
languagebash
$ cd ${SPDIR}/chain/icon2icon/sp002
$ ./subchain start

This experiment is a two month simulation, 2 km / around Hamburg / driven bei the results from the sp001 experiment.
