MODULE model_mod

Overview

Every model that is DART compliant must provide an set of interfaces that will be called by DART code. For models which have no special code for some of these routines, they can pass through the call to this default module, which satisfies the call but does no work. To use these routines in a model_mod.f90, add at the top:
use default_model_mod, only : xxx, yyy

and then leave them in the public list.

Namelist

The default routines have no namelist.

Other modules used

types_mod
time_manager_mod
location_mod
utilities_mod
netcdf_utilities_mod
ensemble_manager_mod
dart_time_io_mod

model_size = get_model_size( )

integer(i8) :: get_model_size

Returns the length of the model state vector as 1. Probably not what you want. The model_mod should set this to the right size and not use this routine.

model_size The length of the model state vector.

call adv_1step(x, time)

real(r8), dimension(:), intent(inout) :: x
type(time_type),        intent(in)    :: time

Throws a fatal error. If the model_mod can advance the model it should provide a real routine. This default routine is intended for use by models which cannot advance themselves from inside filter.

x State vector of length model_size.
time Current time of model state.

call get_state_meta_data (index_in, location, [, var_type] )

integer,             intent(in)  :: index_in
type(location_type), intent(out) :: location
integer, optional,   intent(out) ::  var_type

Sets the location to missing and the variable type to 0. The model_mod should provide a routine that sets a real location and a state vector type for the requested item in the state vector.

index_in Index of state vector element about which information is requested.
location The location of state variable element.
var_type The generic quantity of the state variable element.

call model_interpolate(state_handle, ens_size, location, obs_quantity, expected_obs, istatus)

type(ensemble_type),    intent(in)  :: state_handle
integer,                intent(in)  :: ens_size
type(location_type),    intent(in)  :: location
integer,                intent(in)  :: obs_quantity
real(r8),               intent(out) :: expected_obs(ens_size)
integer,                intent(out) :: istatus(ens_size)

Sets the expected obs to missing and returns an error code for all obs. This routine should be supplied by the model_mod.

state_handle The handle to the state structure containing information about the state vector about which information is requested.
ens_size The ensemble size.
location Location to which to interpolate.
obs_quantity Quantity of state field to be interpolated.
expected_obs The interpolated values from the model.
istatus Integer values return 0 for success. Other positive values can be defined for various failures.

var = shortest_time_between_assimilations()

type(time_type) :: shortest_time_between_assimilations

Returns 1 day.

var Smallest advance time of the model.

call static_init_model()
Does nothing.

call init_time(time)

type(time_type), intent(out) :: time

Returns a time of 0.

time Initial model time.

call fail_init_time(time)

type(time_type), intent(out) :: time

Throws a fatal error. This is appropriate for models that cannot start from arbitrary initial conditions.

time NOT SET. Initial model time.

call init_conditions(x)

real(r8), dimension(:), intent(out) :: x

Returns x(:) = 0.0

x Initial conditions for state vector.

call fail_init_conditions(x)

real(r8), dimension(:), intent(out) :: x

Throws a fatal error. This is appropriate for models that cannot start from arbitrary initial conditions.

x NOT SET: Initial conditions for state vector.

call nc_write_model_atts(ncFileID, domain_id)

integer, intent(in) :: ncFileID
integer, intent(in) :: domain_id

Does nothing.

ncFileID Integer file descriptor to previously-opened netCDF file.
domain_id integer describing the domain (which can be a nesting level, a component model ...) Models with nested grids are decomposed into 'domains' in DART. The concept is extended to refer to 'coupled' models where one model component may be the atmosphere, another component may be the ocean, or land, or ionosphere ... these would be referenced as different domains.

call nc_write_model_vars(ncFileID, domain_id, state_ens_handle [, memberindex] [, timeindex])

integer, optional,   intent(in) :: memberindex
integer, optional,   intent(in) :: timeindex

Does nothing

ncFileID file descriptor to previously-opened netCDF file.
domain_id integer describing the domain (which can be a nesting level, a component model ...)
state_ens_handle The handle to the state structure containing information about the state vector about which information is requested.
memberindex Integer index of ensemble member to be written.
timeindex The timestep counter for the given state.

logical,             intent(out)   :: interf_provided

Returns 'interface provided' flag as false, so the default perturb routine in DART will add small amounts of gaussian noise to all parts of the state vector.

state_ens_handle The handle containing an ensemble of state vectors to be perturbed.
ens_size The number of ensemble members to perturb.
pert_amp the amplitude of the perturbations. The interpretation is based on the model-specific implementation.
interf_provided Returns false if model_mod cannot do this, else true.
