Exact, time-averaged heat content diagnostics missing #142
Comments
Oh wait, we still could not close the budget exactly without saving snapshots (of which we have some in the restarts). I think the 2D diagnostic would still be useful though. |
Just adding to this with another request: It looks like |

Fair enough. I've never done that calculation but I'm sure it's easy enough. That would save a 3D variable at the cost of a bit more faffing for analysis. |
Yeah, I've got the Fortran code. Just a few lines the calculation is pretty simple and quick. Once you get the 3D array for |

For all the runs in the documentation paper, we are saving monthly averages of
temp
anddzt
. However the exact, spatially-resolved, time-averaged heat content cannot be reproduced exactly from these because of missing correlations between the two. The missing 3D diagnostic istemp_rhodzt
. Of course, errors are likely small (I'm not sure how small...).For future runs, can we please add the 2D diagnostic
temp_int_rhodz
? As we are saving all of the vertically-integrated heat fluxes and the surface heat flux, this should allow exact closure of the vertically-integrated heat budget.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
