Tutorial Examples

- under construction! -

In this article several examples from different application areas in ICON-ART are presented. Just click on the highlighted text to get to the page of the respecting example. For every example a configuration is explained to try out typical cases in ICON-ART yourselves. Thereby, these pages can be viewed as a Tutorial in ICON-ART.

Overview of topics

Atmospheric Chemistry Simulations

Simplified Chemistry

• here a simulation of the Hydroxylradical (OH) is performed with simplified chemistry
• this example teaches you...
  • the basics of setting up an ICON runscript with ICON-ART settings
  • the use of the most simple ICON-ART namelist parameter
  • the implementation of the desired chemical species in a simulation by setting up a chemtracer xml-data for simplified chemistry simulations
  • the implementation of emission data in a simulation

MECCA-based (full) Chemistry

• here a simulation with (full) MECCA-based chemistry is performed, for that a complete reaction mechanism is created and transferred to ICON-ART
• this example teaches you...
  • the implementation of (full) MECCA-based chemistry in ICON-ART
  • the creation of a chemical mechanism and the selection of the respective desired chemical species and their reactions in MECCA
  • the implementation of not yet in MECCA implemented reactions in your mechanism
  • the creation of the to your mechanism belonging Mecca-xml data to link MECCA calculations with ICON-ART

Simulating a Point Source

• In this example a Point Source is installed at the location of the volcano Raikoke and a constant emission of SO2 and Ash is emitted into the atmosphere.
• this example teaches you...
  • How to setup and run your first Simulation
  • The setup of the directory structure when doing an ICON-ART Simulation
  • How to modify a runscript to suit your needs
  • How to modify .xml data to set up a Simulation
  • A possible approach to visualise the output data
