Public variables and constants | |
real | len_lon |
The longitudinal or x-direction length of the domain. | |
real | len_lat |
The latitudinal or y-direction length of the domain. | |
real | west_lon |
The western longitude of the domain or the equivalent starting value for the x-axis. | |
real | south_lat |
The southern latitude of the domain or the equivalent starting value for the y-axis. | |
real | rad_earth |
The radius of the Earth [m]. | |
real | lat_enhance_factor |
The amount by which the meridional resolution is enhanced within LAT_EQ_ENHANCE of the equator. | |
real | lat_eq_enhance |
The latitude range to the north and south of the equator over which the resolution is enhanced, in degrees. | |
logical | isotropic |
If true, an isotropic grid on a sphere (also known as a Mercator grid) is used. With an isotropic grid, the meridional extent of the domain (LENLAT), the zonal extent (LENLON), and the number of grid points in each direction are not independent. In MOM the meridional extent is determined to fit the zonal extent and the number of grid points, while grid is perfectly isotropic. | |
logical | equator_reference |
If true, the grid is defined to have the equator at the nearest q- or h- grid point to (-LOWLAT*NJGLOBAL/LENLAT). | |
integer | niglobal |
The number of i-points in the global grid computational domain. | |
integer | njglobal |
The number of j-points in the global grid computational domain. | |
