How to use CHAINOP with your own MARS RDIR ?

  • If you want to point to your own MARS RDIR, change runmars_dir in section directories:

[directories]
  #runmars_dir = '%(operational_dir)s/MARS/RUN_MARS/'
  runmars_dir = 'your_own_RDIR'

  • In this case, you must copy:

    • your paracom.txt in paracom.txt.ref

    • your paramain.txt in paramain.txt.ref

    • your output.dat in output.dat.ref

    • your paraspec.txt in paraspec.txt.ref and paraspec.txt.init (if you plan to use option –init)

  • Because at each run, CHAINOP will systematically copy:

    • paracom.txt.ref in paracom.txt

    • paramain.txt.ref in paramain.txt

    • output.dat.ref in output.dat

    • paraspec.txt.ref or paraspec.txt.init (depending if you use option –init or not) in paraspec.txt

  • In your own inputs directory (for example MARS/RUN_MARS/MANGAE2500/inputs), make links between forcing files (meteo, river, wave, obc) and files generated by operational chain. For example:

mangae_meteo.nc -> ~/CHAINOP/inputs/MANGAE2500-r1630/meteo/mangae_meteo.nc
