Public variables and constants

real rho_a
 Mean air density [kg m-3].
 
real pressure_ambient
 Pressure at surface of ambient air [Pa].
 
real pressure_central
 Pressure at surface at hurricane center [Pa].
 
real rad_max_wind
 Radius of maximum winds [m].
 
real max_windspeed
 Maximum wind speeds [m s-1].
 
real hurr_translation_spd
 Hurricane translation speed [m s-1].
 
real hurr_translation_dir
 Hurricane translation speed [m s-1].
 
real gustiness
 Gustiness (optional, used in u*) [m s-1].
 
real rho0
 A reference ocean density [kg m-3].
 
real hurr_cen_y0
 The initial y position of the hurricane This experiment is conducted in a Cartesian grid and this is assumed to be in meters [m].
 
real hurr_cen_x0
 The initial x position of the hurricane This experiment is conducted in a Cartesian grid and this is assumed to be in meters [m].
 
real holland_a
 Parameter 'A' from the Holland formula.
 
real holland_b
 Parameter 'B' from the Holland formula.
 
real holland_axbxdp
 'A' x 'B' x (Pressure Ambient-Pressure central) for the Holland prorfile calculation
 
logical relative_tau
 A logical to take difference between wind and surface currents to compute the stress.
 
logical scm_mode
 If true this being used in Single Column Model mode.
 
logical br_bench
 A "benchmark" configuration (which is meant to provide identical wind to reproduce a previous experiment, where that wind formula contained an error)
 
real dy_from_center
 (Fixed) distance in y from storm center path [m]
 
real pi
 Mathematical constant.
 
real deg2rad
 Mathematical constant.
