Compilation: *you will need to install NETCDF on your system and note the directories where the library and module reside. *in the Makefile change the variables NETCDF_FOR, NETCDF_C and NETCDF_LIB to suit your system. Sometimes when compiling NETCDF you may have to install both the fortran and c versions. If you do not need to do this, set NETCDF_FOR and NETCDF_C equal to the same value. *If you install both c and fortran versions, set NETCDF_LIB to -lnetcdff *If you only need to install one version, set NETCDF_LIB to lnetcdf *Finally, once netcdf is installed and the make file is edited, type "make" to compile the code *Note, these variables are commented out in the Makefile. You may set them as environment variables in your .bashrc, or .bash_profile and the Makefile will pick them up. Doxygen pages: *self generating documentation (from the source code) can be created by typing "doxygen fortran.dxg" at the command line. *you can then view the html pages by opening the file at "doxygen/html/index.html" Running code: *run the code by typing the following: * single processor: ./main.exe namelist.run Contributing development: * at the moment the code is under private repo with no development branches. Contact the code owner to contribute ideas.
