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)

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 for unsage on other machines. At DKRZ the Simple Linux Utility for Resource Management SLURM is installed.

...

Code Block
languagebash
$ tar -xzvf cclm-sp-5.0.tgz
$ mv cclm-sp-5.0 yourpath/cclm-sp

yourpath/cclm-sp is named SPDIR from here on.

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

Code Block
languagebash
$ cd yourpath$SPDIR/cclm-sp/data
$ ./get_sp_ext.sh

4. Change to the directory yourpath/cclm-sp$SPDIR/configure_scripts
5. Adjust the settings in the file system_settings to your computer system
6. Type the following command to create a default test experiment

...

Code Block
languagebash
$ cd /$SPDIR/src/int2lm

Open the Fopts script with any text editor and change the Fortran options according to your computer platform. Compile INT2LM:

...

Code Block
languagebash
$ cd /$SPDIR/src/cclm

Open the Fopts script with any text editor and change the fortran Fortran options according to your computer platform. The Makefile might be edited for setting the right MACHINE (e.g., levante.atos.local). Compile CCLM:

Code Block
languagebash
$ make

...

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 adapt them to your needs.

Code Block
languagebash
PROJECT_ACCOUNT=  # your project account

...

After successful completion of the  SP001 the sp001 experiment adapt the scripts in  SP002 sp002 and start this experiment:

...

This experiment is a two-month simulation, 2 km resolution, around Hamburg, driven by the results from the SP001 sp001 experiment.
