120 m Mesh v3 goes to 10 m but does not have PR.

[saeed-moghimi-noaa]

This mesh includes PR high res and goes 10m above NAVD88

For UND reference, I put Atl+PR merging package on Orion at /work/noaa/nosofs/share/wpringle/HSOFS_PR_merge_package/

@WPringle

Would you please attach the tar.gz package here as well?

[WPringle]

I think file size is too large. Is there better way to share? It seems UND will host GitHub site in future, maybe I can wait to upload there or any globus address everyone have access to?

[saeed-moghimi-noaa]

Sure. I agree.

Latest PAC mesh tested by Yuiji for Hurricane Iselle (2014):

William -

I successfully made fort.13 and completed hurricane Iselle hindcast with advection terms on.
Thank you for your help.

I put autoval results on the google drive:

The results are good at NOS stations in Hawaii.

Thanks,
Yuji

I put all input files (including updated fort.13:GESTOFS_Pacific_V2.1.13) on the google drive:

Here is my answer:

1. Yes, NOLICA and NOLICAT (called advection terms) were.
   If they are turned off, ADCIRC can prevent model instability, but ADCIRC loses model accuracy.
2. It depends on the ADCIRC runs.
   If ADCIRC runs tide-only, the longer ramping makes the model stable, but if ADCIRC runs with ATM forcing, the ramping is less significant because ATM forcing is more dominant.

I think that ADCIRC runs for COATAL ACT should keep advection terms on in order to maintain 90% accuracy.
I added a new nodal attribute, called "advection_state", in fort.13 for not only model stability but also model accuracy.
Nodal Attributes File (fort.13) - ADCIRC
If you use updated fort.13 (GESTOFS_Pacific_V2.1.13), ADCIRC can finish with advection terms turned on.
I put all input files (including two fort.15 files) on the google drive:

Please grab them.
