1. Development of a Multi-Level Parallel Adaptive ROMS

• PARAMESH (Parallel Adaptive Mesh Refinement) is a package of Fortran 90 subroutines designed to provide an application developer with an easy route to extend an existing serial code which uses a logically cartesian structured mesh into a parallel code with adaptive mesh refinement (AMR).http://esdcd.gsfc.nasa.gov/rib/repositories/inhouse_gsfc/Users_manual/amr.html

• Pyramid (Parallel Unstructured Adaptive Mesh Refinement Library) is a software library for performing parallel adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) on unstructured meshes. http://www-hpc.jpl.nasa.gov/APPS/AMR/

Application Examples of PARAMESH: 3D AMR

Information exchange across grid levels

The Computational Flow of Adaptive ROMS

Multi-level block-structured grid generation (load-balancing)

Read input fields to coarse grid

Interpolate input fields from coarse grid blocks through

the grid tree to all refined levels

Set parameters for multi-level grid(grid scale, land masks, time steps.)

All-level guard cell exchanges ready for time-stepping

3D time-stepping on grid blocks at all levels

• For each time step of outer time-stepping loop:• Perform Ni time steps of 3D updates at grid level i

•For each 3D update• Perform M steps of 2D updates• Same-level guard-cell exchanges for each 2D update

•Same-level guard cell exchanges foreach 3D update

•All-level guard cell exchanges for all relevant variables

• For each time step of outer time-stepping loop:• Perform Ni time steps of 3D updates at grid level i

•For each 3D update• Perform M steps of 2D updates• Same-level guard-cell exchanges for each 2D update

•Same-level guard cell exchanges foreach 3D update
