SPMODEL: Hierarchical Spectral Models for GFD

In SPMODEL project, we are now developing hierarchical spectral models for geophysical fluid dynamics which can be used for research and education with ease.

News(2009.03.03)

New version (0.5.0) of SPMODEL library (spml) was released. Modified points and newly implemented functions are as folllows:

• Newly implemented functions
  • Functions for mpi calculation (which call MPI routines of ISPACK)
  • A module for disk and sphere geometry by using Jacobi polynomials (aq_module)
  • A module for disk and sphere geometry by using Chebyshev polynomials and Gauss-Radau grid (au_module)
  • A module for axisymmetric geometry by using Legendre polynomials(l_module)
  • Modules for converting models of sphere and sperical shell geometries to the axisymmetric version (w_zonal_module, wa_zonal_module, wt_zonal_module)
• Modified points
  • Declaration of grid data arrays was changed from (im,jm) to (0:im-1, 1:jm).
  • Almost documantation were produced by rdoc-f95.

In particular, please take care of the declaration of grid data arrays in the spherical harmonics modules when you upgrade the spml library from the older version.

The goal of SPMODEL

In SPMODEL project, we develop numerical models based on various approximation equation systems that appear in the geophysical fluid dynamics hierarchically.
