This directory contains simulation data used in manuscript "Generation and intensification of mesoscale anticyclones by orographic wind jets: the case of Ierapetra Eddies forced by the Etesians" submitted to jGR Oceans. Data are intended for the reviewers and may be updated until the review process is complete. Each simulation is stored in netCDF format with the following variables sim_init physical parameters: Rd (m) ~ Radius of deformation Ho (m) ~ unperturbed layer thickness Iox (N/m^2) ~ wind stress intensity in x Ioy (N/m^2) ~ wind stress intensity in y tau_o W (m) ~ wind forcing Width L (m) ~ wind forcing Extend gstar (m/s^2) ~ reduced gravity T (s) ~ timestep duration Fd1 (days) ~ day of maximum forcing f(t) = FA1*np.exp(-0.5*((t-Fd1)/Fw1)**2)) Fw1 (days) ~ To characteristic forcing duration domain: Numerical parameters: Lx (m) ~ domain size in x Ly (m) ~ domain size in y Nx (m) ~ number of points in x Ny (m) ~ number of points in y dx (m) ~ resolution in x dy (m) ~ resolution in y eddy init: Eddy initialisation: type ~ eddy type -1(1) for anticyclone (cyclone) Ro ~ eddy Rossby vortex number Rmax (m) ~ eddy characteristic radius xik ~ x grid yik ~ y grid hik ~ layer thickness ujk ~ velocity component in x vil ~ velocity component in y zjl ~ vorticity field
