Agent Parameters

NAMELIST group name: agents_par

Parameter Name	FORTRAN Type	Default Value	Explanation
a_rand_target	L(100)	100 * .F.	Flag for agents within a group to have random targets outside of model domain. One logical value per agent group. If .T., each agent in that group will have a random target just outside the model domain. Otherwise a target (see at_x/at_y) must be set manually for each agent group.
adx	R(100)	100 * 9999999.9	Distance along x between agents within an agent source (in m). Each agent source is defined as an area from x = asl to asr and y = ass to asn. The first agent is released at x = asl; y = ass. More agents are released at x = asl + N * adx (x <= asr) and y = ass + N * ady (y <= asn), forming a raster. To add a random element to these release points, see random_start_position_agents.
ady	R(100)	100 * 9999999.9	Distance along y between agents within an agent source (in m).
agent_maximum_age	R(100)	100 * 9999999.9	Maximum time an agent can spend in the simulation before it is deleted.
agent_time_unlimited	L	.F.	Flag to determine number of unlimited dimensions in NetCDF output file. In the agent NetCDF output file only the number of agents is an unlimited dimension by default. Contrarily, the time dimension is estimated as having a size of 1.2 * end_time / dt_write_agent_data by default. If this flag is set to .T., both dimensions are set as unlimited. This requires NetCDF4, HDF5 and results in a much larger output file.
alloc_factor_mas	R	20.0	Factor (in percent) describing the memory allocated additionally to the memory needed for initial agents at a given grid cell. Implementation is the same as alloc_factor. Check for reference.
asl	R(100)	100 * 9999999.9	Left border of agent source(s) (in m). Check adx for information of agent sources.
asn	R(100)	100 * 9999999.9	North border of agent source(s) (in m). Check adx for information of agent sources.
asr	R(100)	100 * 9999999.9	Right border of agent source(s) (in m). Check adx for information of agent sources.
ass	R(100)	100 * 9999999.9	South border of agent source(s) (in m). Check adx for information of agent sources.
