external forcing field
Ulf Graewe
I would like to to use bb/passive in combination with an external surface flux file. I will do that in GETM. But I have no clue on how to do it.
There is only a cryptic line in GETM:
'remember to add external_surface_flux model to fabm.yaml'
but how to do that?
Could someone guide me?
My fabm.yaml reads:
instances:
tracer:
model: bb/passive
parameters:
vertical_velocity: -2.0
initialization:
c: 0.0
Best,
ulf

Hi Ulf,
Yes that’s one topic where we should add a wiki page about (models built into FABM for common functionality). Anyway, the idea is to add a “surface flux” model like so (under instances):
tracer_flux:
model: external_surface_flux
coupling :
target : tracer/c
That will leave you with a dependency for the surface flux (in tracer/m2/s), named tracer_flux/flux (or tracer_flux/flux). Typically you would then provide that 2D field through the host, i.e., GETM.
Scanning the GETM code, it looks like you should then provide a NetCDF file with that variable. The path to the file is configured through fabm_surface_flux_file in getm_fabm_nml. The variable must be named “tracer_flux” in your case. But as far as I can tell, the current GETM code only allows that field to be a monthly climatology…
Cheers,
Jorn

Addendum: that dependency for the surface flux would be named tracer_flux/flux or tracer_flux_flux. It is accessible by the host under both names. GETM uses the latter.

thanks!
It works like a charm.
