single_column
The single_column
tests in polaris.seaice.tasks.single_column
exercise
column physics only. Here, we describe the tasks and their shared framework.
framework
The The shared framework is made up of a shared forward
step and a set of
shared namelists and streams files.
forward
The class polaris.seaice.tasks.single_column.forward.Forward
defines a step for running MPAS-Seaice. The step stages the forcing files,
namelist and streams files for each task.
standard_physics_test
The polaris.seaice.tasks.single_column.standard_physics.StandardPhysics
The test runs for one year, using year 2000 conditions, as specified in the
namelist.seaice
and streams.seaice
files. The test will compare the contents
of the output file for year 2000 against a baseline if provided.
viz
The class polaris.seaice.tasks.single_column.standard_physics.viz.Viz
produces time series of sea ice volume, snow volume, and surface temperature.
exact_restart_test
The polaris.seaice.tasks.single_column.exact_restart.ExactRestart
The test runs a full_run
for one day, writing restarts every 12 hours, as
specified by namelist.full
and streams.full
. The test then runs a
restart_run
from the full run’s 12 hour restart file, for 12 hours, writing
a restart file at the end of the run. The contents of each runs final restart file
are then compared.
