Description

These files are compressed versions of input files, model code, and output used for the associated publication in Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans (see below). Compressed files with the .gz file extension can be opened with Gzip GNU software (open source). Compressed files with the .tar file extension can be opened with Gzip Tar software (open source). Many of the input and output files use the NetCDF (Network Common Data Form) file format. These have "nc" as a file extension and can be read using a variety of open source tools: see http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/docs/ . For information about the Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS), its model code and input / output, see www.myroms.org.
