Before you run your own experiment it is recommended to run the test cases sp001 and sp002 as described in the Install section.

Creating the first new experiments by yourself

Downscaling simulation with GCM data (gcm2icon)

Make a copy of the template sp001 as starting point for your experiment (this is named exp001 in mytemplate1 in the following, but you can use a name by yourself).

...

Code Block
languagebash
cp -R $SPDIR/chain/gcm2icon/sp001 yourpath/exp001mytemplate1


Change into the yourpath/exp001mytemplate1 directory and perform your changes in the job_settings file and the other scripts. Then perform a clean to get rid of any unnecessary files that may have transferred during the copying of sp001.

Code Block
languagebash
cd yourpath/exp001mytemplate1
./subchain clean

Now you are ready to start your experiment

...


If the simulation is successful you can find the output data under the directories $ARCHIVE_OUTDIR and as post-processed time series under under $WORKDIR/exp001mytemplate1/post.

Nested simulation (icon2icon)

Make a copy of the template sp002 as starting point for your experiment (this is named exp002 in mytemplate2 in the following, but you can use a name by yourself).

...

Code Block
languagebash
cp -R $SPDIR/chain/gcm2icon/sp002 yourpath/exp002mytemplate2


Change into the yourpath/exp002mytemplate2 directory and perform your changes in the job_settings file and the other scripts. Then perform a clean to get rid of any unnecessary files that may have transferred during the copying of sp002.

Code Block
languagebash
cd yourpath/exp002mytemplate2
./subchain clean

Now you are ready to start your experiment

...


If the simulation is successful you can find the output data under the directories $ARCHIVE_OUTDIR and as post-processed time series under $WORKDIR/exp001/postmytemplate2/post.

Creating any further experiments

After you have created an experiment with the use of either sp001 or sp002 you can use that experiment as a template for your further experiments. This will save you some time since you have not to do a lot of basic changes again.
