! source file: /Users/oschlies/UVIC/master/source/mom/neptune.F subroutine neptune !======================================================================= ! calculate neptune (maximum entropy) velocities ! the option "neptune" provides a subgridscale parameterization ! for the interaction of eddies and topography ! reference: ! Holloway, G., 1992: representing topographic stress for large ! scale ocean models, J. Phys. Oceanogr., 22, 1033-1046 ! neptune is calculated as an equilibrium streamfunction given by ! pnep=-f*snep*snep*hnep and is applied through eddy viscosity ! hnep = model streamfunction depth ! snep = spnep + (senep-spnep)*(0.5 + 0.5*cos(2.0*latitude)) ! the neptune length scale snep has a value of senep at the ! equator and smoothly changes to spnep at the poles ! based on code by: G. Holloway and M. Eby !======================================================================= return end
