GWE-IC

Structure of Blocks

FOR EACH SIMULATION

    BEGIN OPTIONS
      [EXPORT_ARRAY_ASCII]
      [EXPORT_ARRAY_NETCDF]
    END OPTIONS
    BEGIN GRIDDATA
      STRT [LAYERED] [NETCDF]
            <strt(nodes)> -- READARRAY
    END GRIDDATA

Explanation of Variables

Block: OPTIONS

  • EXPORT_ARRAY_ASCII keyword that specifies input griddata arrays should be written to layered ascii output files.

  • EXPORT_ARRAY_NETCDF keyword that specifies input griddata arrays should be written to the model output netcdf file.

Block: GRIDDATA

  • strt is the initial (starting) temperature—that is, the temperature at the beginning of the GWE Model simulation. STRT must be specified for all GWE Model simulations. One value is read for every model cell.

Example Input File

    #The OPTIONS block is optional
    BEGIN OPTIONS
    END OPTIONS
    
    #The GRIDDATA block is required
    BEGIN GRIDDATA
      STRT LAYERED
        CONSTANT  10.0  # Initial Temperature (C) layer   1
        CONSTANT  10.0  # Initial Temperature (C) layer   2
    END GRIDDATA
