| 1509 | This parameter only comes into effect for ocean runs (see parameter [#ocean ocean]).\\\\ |
| 1510 | This salinity gradient holds starting from the height level defined by [#sa_vertical_gradient_level sa_vertical_gradient_level] (precisely: for all uv levels k where zu(k) < sa_vertical_gradient_level, sa_init(k) is set: sa_init(k) = sa_init(k+1) - dzu(k+1) * '''sa_vertical_gradient''') down to the bottom boundary or down to the next height level defined by sa_vertical_gradient_level. A total of 10 different gradients for 11 height intervals (10 intervals if sa_vertical_gradient_level(1) = 0.0) can be assigned. The surface salinity at k=[#nzt nzt] is assigned via [#sa_surface sa_surface].\\\\ |
| 1511 | '''Example:'''\\\\ |
| 1512 | '''sa_vertical_gradient''' = ''1.0,'' ''0.5,''\\ |
| 1513 | [#sa_vertical_gradient_level sa_vertical_gradient_level] = ''-500.0,'' ''-1000.0,''\\\\ |
| 1514 | That defines the salinity to be constant down to z = -500.0 m with a salinity given by sa_surface. For -500.0 m < z <= -1000.0 m the salinity gradient is 1.0 psu / 100 m and for z < -1000.0 m down to the bottom boundary it is 0.5 psu / 100 m (it is assumed that the assigned height levels correspond with uv levels). |
