Hello.
I don't know the correspondence between modules in the ./phys directory and each physical option number. Does anyone know about this or know where to find reference materials?
 
Hi,
Unfortunately we don't have any sort of documentation that describes this, but most of them are named close to what they are called. You can find information about the setting number and the scheme name in chapter 5 of the Users' Guide

If you have questions about file names of specific schemes let me know and I can help.
 
Thank you for your reply.
I'm sorry. I ca n’t find it, so I ’m a question.

In Surface Layer (sf_sfclay_physics)
・ MM5 similarity (sf_sfclay_physics = 1)
・ Eta similarity (sf_sfclay_physics = 2)

Which of the following modules are used in each scheme? The version used is 3.3.1.

module_sf_bem.F module_sf_pxlsm.o

Hi,
The following modules correspond to the 2 options you mentioned:
1) sf_sfclay_physics = 1 (module_sf_sfclay.F)
2) sf_sfclay_physics = 2 (module_sf_myjsfc.F)
