    5 \chapter{Setting the simulation parameters}
    6 
    7 \mk
    8 In this chapter, we describe how to set the various parameters
    9 defining a given simulation.
    10 %
    11 As could be inferred from the content of the \ttt{TESTCASE} directory,
    12 two parameter files are needed to run the model:
    13 \begin{enumerate}
    14 \item The parameters related to the dynamical part of the model can be set
    15 in the file \ttt{namelist.input} according to the ARW-WRF namelist formatting.
    16 \item The parameters related to the physical part of the model can be set
    17 in the file \ttt{callphys.def} according to the LMD-MGCM formatting.
    18 \end{enumerate}
    19 
    20 \mk
    21 \section{Dynamical settings}
    22 
    23 \mk
    24 \ttt{namelist.input} controls the behavior of the dynamical core
    25 in the LMD Martian Mesoscale Model.
    26 %
    27 Compared to the file the ARW-WRF users are familiar with\footnote{
    28 %%%
    29 A description of this file can be found in \ttt{SRC/WRFV2/run/README.namelist}.
    30 %%%
    31 }, the \ttt{namelist.input} in the LMD Martian Mesoscale Model
    32 is much shorter.
    33 %
    34 The only mandatory parameters in this file
    35 are information on time control\footnote{

    38 \url{http://www-mars.lmd.jussieu.fr/mars/time/solar_longitude.html}

    40 } and domain definition.
    41 
    42 \mk
    43 \marge The minimal version of the \ttt{namelist.input}
    44 file corresponds to standard simulations with the model.
    45 %
    46 It is however possible to modify optional parameters
    47 if needed, as is the case in the \ttt{namelist.input}
    48 associated to the Arsia Mons test case
    49 (e.g. the parameter \ttt{non\_hydrostatic} is set to false
    50 to assume hydrostatic equilibrium, whereas standard
    51 simulations are non-hydrostatic).
    52 
    53 \mk
    54 \marge A detailed description of the \ttt{namelist.input} file is given below\footnote{
    55 %%%
    56 You may find the corresponding file in \ttt{SIMU/namelist.input\_full}.
    57 %%%
    58 }.
    59 %
    60 Comments on each of the parameters are provided,
    61 with the following labels:
    62 \begin{citemize}
    63 \item \ttt{(*)} denotes parameters not to be modified,
    64 \item \ttt{(r)} indicates parameters which modification implies a new recompilation of the model,
    65 \item \ttt{(n)} describes parameters involved when nested domains are defined,
    66 \item \ttt{(p1)}, \ttt{(p2)}, \ttt{(p3)} mention parameters which modification implies a new processing
    67 of initial and boundary conditions (see next chapter),
    68 \item \ttt{(*d)} denotes dynamical parameters which modification implies
    69 non-standard simulations -- please read \ttt{SRC/WRFV2/run/README.namelist}
    70 and use with caution.
    71 \end{citemize}
    72 %
    73 If omitted, the optional parameters would be set to their default
    74 values indicated below.\pagebreak

    79 \item Please pay attention to rigorous syntax while
    80 editing your personal \ttt{namelist.input} file
    81 to avoid reading error.
    82 \item To modify the default values (or even add
    83 personal parameters) in the \ttt{namelist.input} file,
    84 edit the \ttt{SRC/WRFV2/Registry/Registry.EM} file.
    85 %
    86 You will then have to recompile the model with \ttt{makemeso} ;
