Public variables and constants

real rho_a
 Mean air density [R ~> kg m-3].
 
real pressure_ambient
 Pressure at surface of ambient air [R L2 T-2 ~> Pa].
 
real pressure_central
 Pressure at surface at hurricane center [R L2 T-2 ~> Pa].
 
real rad_max_wind
 Radius of maximum winds [L ~> m].
 
real max_windspeed
 Maximum wind speeds [L T-1 ~> m s-1].
 
real hurr_translation_spd
 Hurricane translation speed [L T-1 ~> m s-1].
 
real hurr_translation_dir
 Hurricane translation direction [radians].
 
real gustiness
 Gustiness (optional, used in u*) [R L Z T-2 ~> Pa].
 
real rho0
 A reference ocean density [R ~> kg m-3].
 
real hurr_cen_y0
 The initial y position of the hurricane This experiment is conducted in a Cartesian grid and this is assumed to be in meters [L ~> m].
 
real hurr_cen_x0
 The initial x position of the hurricane This experiment is conducted in a Cartesian grid and this is assumed to be in meters [L ~> m].
 
real holland_a
 Parameter 'A' from the Holland formula [nondim].
 
real holland_b
 Parameter 'B' from the Holland formula [nondim].
 
real holland_axbxdp
 'A' x 'B' x (Pressure Ambient-Pressure central) for the Holland prorfile calculation [R L2 T-2 ~> Pa]
 
logical relative_tau
 A logical to take difference between wind and surface currents to compute the stress.
 
logical answers_2018
 If true, use expressions driving the idealized hurricane test case that recover the answers from the end of 2018. Otherwise use expressions that are rescalable and respect rotational symmetry.
 
logical scm_mode
 If true this being used in Single Column Model mode.
 
logical br_bench
 A "benchmark" configuration (which is meant to provide identical wind to reproduce a previous experiment, where that wind formula contained an error)
 
real dy_from_center
 (Fixed) distance in y from storm center path [L ~> m]
 
real pi
 Mathematical constant.
 
real deg2rad
 Mathematical constant.
