Upper Ocean Projects
This subdirectory contains some of the models used in the Price and Sundermeyer (1999) 'Stratifed Ekman Layers' manuscript at JGR-Oceans and some things relevant to the PWP upper ocean model and other upper ocean-related programs. The models can be used for any purpose you like, no strings attached. Please let me know if you see any errors or have any ideas for improvement.
| Link | Description |
|---|---|
| e4main.f | Fortran code that is used to exercise the SEL4 model. Link with the subroutine se.f. |
| e4.f | Fortran code that evaluates the SEL4 model. |
| sel4.m | Matlab script to evaluate SEL4 (I recommend this one.) |
| arrow6.m | A function to make arrows (needed by SEL4). |
| classic.m | Matlab script to evaluate the classic diffusion model. Buggy, and written in a primitive style, sort of like Fortlab. |
| se.pdf | A .pdf version of the Stratified Ekman Layer manuscript. |
| LHekman.pdf PWP.pdf | A .pdf version of the shorter Les Houches Ekman layer note. A pdf of Price, Weller and Pinkel, JGR 1986. |
| pwp.f | Fortran version of the PWP model. Minor, minor changes from the original, 1986 version. |
| my.f | Fortran version of the Mello-Yamada turbulence closure model. This code works, but is of uncertain lineage, so don't blame Mellor-Yamada! |
| fluxes.f | A fortran code to estimate surface fluxes. |
| JPrice_AMS_2006.ppt | A set of ppt slides from the AMS hurricane conference. |
| hurrtest.zip SSTimages.zip | A set of files that define a test case for ocean models of the response to a hurricane. Now version 4. A zip fil with jpeg images of GOES SST data from western North Atlantic hurricanes of 2003 and 2004 |
