Surfex v8_0 was built by developers, so documentation is available by contribution.
As it’s not easy to extract from this sort of documentation a wanted information, for next version, a summary will be done here of the documentation provided by developers.
1. Draft of the schedule for the building of SURFEX V8
Contains: watering: watering of gardens and greenroofs. Activated in a specific namelist. By default, the watering is non-existent. The amounts for watering are in litres/day (or kg/m2/day). Time slots and months for are specified by user. The watering occuring in ISBA, there is a new (...)
Contains: implementation of prognostic SSA (Snow Specific Surface Area) in CROCUS implementation of the radiative transfert scheme TARTES new possibilities to initialize the snow covering (liquid water contents, height of snow) possibility to force the altitude and the slope from a NETCDF (...)
Reminder:
SODA aims at gathering and externalizing developments around data assimilation in SURFEX (OI or EKF in PNT or OFFLINE Surfex modes).
The last version of SODA was developed by Trygve Aspelien and put in the branch new_soda (based on trunk SVN SURFEX V7_3, revision 1290).
For the (...)
Contains: TOPODYN can now be coupled not only with ISBA-3L but also with ISBA-DIF several patches can now be considered in TOPMODEL, instead of only one before These developments are finished and based on revision 1214 of trunk SVN for SURFEX V7_3, present in branch isbatop_df_Npatches.
They (...)
Contains: corrections in ecume_flux.F90
As this contribution is a minor one, it will be included in CNRM_CM6_DEV before to enter SURFEX V8.
The correction will be first tested in a light code running coupling_seafluxn.F90 with several datasets (by the end of December, Cindy Lebeaupin (...)
