Welcome to [C]Worthy's fork of UCLA ROMS. We maintain this fork in close collaboration with UCLA, prioritizing marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR) applications and open-source software practices.

A demonstration of mCDR-focused features: 6 weeks of transport of an alkalinity perturbation in a nested simulation with ROMS-MARBL, including upscaling at the interface between the two domains

ROMS is a free-surface, terrain following, primitive equation ocean model, developed by our collaborators at UCLA. UCLA-ROMS is highly optimized, supports state-of-the-art biogeochemical modelling, and is well-suited for nested regional modelling from ocean basins down to estuaries.

Detailed instructions on installing and running ROMS can be found in our documentation.

If you find a bug, we encourage you to open an issue - please attempt to include a minimal reproducible example of your problem. To request other assistance or suggest a feature, please start a discussion. We welcome pull requests, but please open an issue or discussion in advance to outline your plan.

Thank you for your contribution!
