OCCAM
The OCCAM
ftp directory contains the full set of programs and files produced by
the OCCAM project which have been made available to the academic
community. Links to the latest versions of the software are given below.
Some software produced by the FRAM project is still available in a
separate FRAM
ftp directory.
OCCAM data is stored in HDF
format. The OCCAM plotting and analysis programs need the
HDF library
to be set up before they can be compiled.
The following naming conventions have been used for the file extensions:
- none
- ascii text
- bin
- unformatted binary
- tar
- UNIX archive file created using "tar cvf"
- gz
- archive file created using gnu gzip utility (Unix, PC and Mac).
- Z
- compressed file using the Unix "compress" utility
Latest versions of OCCAM programs
- moma_v1.17.tar.Z
- Latest release of the 'moma' ocean model code. See: 'Webb, D.J., 1996: An ocean model code for array processor computers. Computers and Geosciences, 22(5), 569-578'.
- moma.mpi_v1.1.tar.Z
- First release of 'moma.mpi'. This is a
MPI message passing version of moma.
The MPI libraries need to be
set up before "moma.mpi" is compiled.
- moma.pvm_v1.10.tar.Z
- Latest release of 'moma.pvm'. This is a
PVM message passing version of moma. Version 1.10 includes monthly ocean surface fluxes,
read by the master and sent on demand to the slaves.
The PVM libraries need to be
set up before "moma.pvm" is compiled. In the UK, PVM is
available from Hensa.
- mplotv9.2.tar.gz
- Latest release of the mplot plotting program for use with moma, moma.pvm and OCCAM HDF datasets.
mplot is a general X11-based plotting program which renders two-dimensional
slices of model data. Slices can be orientated along any of the model axes.
Features include: zooming and panning, choice of colour scales, user-controllable
limits, PostScript output and the ability to combine two slices as either a
difference or vector field. Images are displayed in a rectangular window with
an approximately 3 to 1 aspect ratio. It needs the colourfiles in
colour2.tar.gz.
- dplotv5.3.tar.Z
- Latest release of the dplot plotting program for use with moma, moma.pvm and
OCCAM HDF datasets. dplot is based upon the mplot program but only permits
the visualisation of horizontal slices from the datasets. Images are displayed
in a larger window with a square aspect ratio.
- gplotv8.1.tar.Z
- Latest release of the gplot plotting program for use with OCCAM HDF datasets.
gplot combines data from both parts of the OCCAM model and displays them in
either an orthographic or Mollweide projection.
- vplot1.4.tar.Z
- Latest release version of vplot. Vplot is similiar to the mplot plotting
program but also handles two dimensional vertical snapshots (i.e east-west and
north-south sections created by the utility program occslice). Vplot also
calculates differences between vertical sections.
- occ_plots.tar
- Tar file containing all compressed tar files of all OCCAM plotting programs.
- occ_util.distrib.tar
-
Tar file containing OCCAM utilities software containing routines and example
programs for handling and manipulating OCCAM archive datasets.

- hsubs.F.gz
-
Gzip file containing Fortran functions for calculating the analytic functions used in: Webb, D.J. (1999) An analytic model of the Agulhas Current as a western boundary current with linearly varying viscosity. Journal of Physical Oceanography, 29(7), 1517-1527.
