Slab Ocean Model heat transport and storage

[aditya_nalam@caos_iisc_ernet_in]

Hi ForumsIs the ocean heat transport component in Slab Ocean model fixed? If yes, please give me a link to its documentation. Also, I am using E compset in cesm 1.0.4. Where can i find the ocean heat storage and mixed layer depth in the history files?Thank you very much

Hi Aditya,The 'slab' ocean model is not a model - it's really more of a stand-in for an actual model. It reads SST and fluxes from files.It looks like you want to use an actual ocean model, G of B compsets are more appropriate.  Leo
