1. Installation Instructions
a) Windows : Copy the files downloaded from website. Use the cmd, command window and
use sbdart.exe command to execute the program. A file named INPUT.dat contains all the
input parameters. If a parameter is not mentioned, then code considers default values for that
parameter
b) Linux : In ubuntu terminal, use the fortran code and compile using gfortran command to
create an executable file. Use the executable file to run the code. A file named INPUT.dat
contains all the input parameters. If a parameter is not mentioned, then code considers
default values for that parameter
2.
Example :
rm -f sbout3
for iday in 90; do
echo "
\$INPUT
idatm=1, wlinf=.3, wlsup=10, iday=$iday, wlinc=.1,alat=13,alon=77,
iout=23,xco2=0.0,xn2=0.0,xo2=0.0,uw=0.0,nzen=10,uzen=0,90,time=4,
\$END" > INPUT.DAT
./sbdartt
while read line
do
echo $line
done<OUTPUT.dat >>day$iday.dat
done
