Short Description of Functionality

Program NCANALYSE serves as an analysis program for data stored in CF netCDF data files.

Input-Files

1. general input data (file type ncanalyse.dat)
2. synoptic data sets (file type CF-NETCDF.NC)

Output-Files

1. data analysis result files (file type CF-NETCDF.NC)
2. (optional) informative printer file of program execution (file type ncanalyse.sdr)
3. (optional) trace of program execution (file type ncanalyse.trc)

Methodology

The following data analysis methods are currently available:

1. Tidal Characteristic Numbers of Water Level;
2. Characteristic Numbers of Water Level (independent of tides);
3. Characteristic Numbers of Water Transport (independent of tides);
4. Characteristic Numbers of Salt Transport (independent of tides);
5. Characteristic Numbers of Heat Transport (independent of tides);
6. Characteristic Numbers of Tracer Transport (independent of tides).

Two executables are available for the SGI ICE computer: ncanalyse.xe can be run in serial or OMP mode whereas ncanalyse.xe.mpi can be run in MPI mode.
