The model has been designed to be very user-friendly, however some modifications must be done to fit with your machine. So, please read the following steps to correctly start the model.

Compilation

Ensure first that gfortran is installed on your machine.
Ensure that the NETCDF FORTRAN libraries are installed on your machine.
Change the path for the NETCDF FORTRAN module and libraries in the makefile.
Compile the source codes using the command make. The executable will be created in the parent directory.
You can also delete all object file and the executable by using the command make mrproper.

Use the model

The model use namelists in nml/ allowing to change some parameter values without recompiling the source code.
Outputs will be generated in the directory output/.

Use the model with GOTM

The model can call GOTM to produce a diffusivity profile. If you want to use this feature you have to change the value of the parameter mix_state in the namelist model_parameter.
Before doing this, ensure that GOTM is installed on your machine and copy all the GOTM namelists you need in the directory gotm/. You should also create a symbolic link of the executable in the directory gotm/.

Use the batch mode

You can also run the model in batch mode. To do this, you must change the batch_bio_pbs.sh.

Have fun!
