Ikeda

Overview

DART interface module for the Ikeda model. The 16 public interfaces are standardized for all DART compliant models. These interfaces allow DART to advance the model, get the model state and metadata describing this state, find state variables that are close to a given location, and do spatial interpolation for model state variables.
The Ikeda model is a 2D chaotic map useful for visualization data assimilation updating directly in state space. There are three parameters: a, b, and mu. The state is 2D, x = [X Y]. The equations are:
X(i+1) = 1 + mu * ( X(i) * cos( t ) - Y(i) * sin( t ) )
Y(i+1) =     mu * ( X(i) * sin( t ) + Y(i) * cos( t ) ),

where

t = a - b / ( X(i)**2 + Y(i)**2 + 1 )
Note the system is time-discrete already, meaning there is no delta_t. The system stems from nonlinear optics (Ikeda 1979, Optics Communications). Interface written by Greg Lawson, CalTech. Thanks Greg!

“The initial conditions were generated by observing state variable 1 with an enormous (~1,000,000.0) observation error variance. The observation was defined to be taken at day=0, seconds = 0. create_fixed_network_sequence was run to create a sequence with 3000 hourly observations starting at day=0, seconds =0. The initial conditions for filter can accomodate 100 ensemble members.”

Namelist

This namelist is read from the file input.nml. Namelists start with an ampersand ‘&’ and terminate with a slash ‘/’. Character strings that contain a ‘/’ must be enclosed in quotes to prevent them from prematurely terminating the namelist.

model_size = get_model_size( )

integer :: get_model_size

Returns the length of the model state vector as an integer. This is fixed at 2 for this model.

model_size

The length of the model state vector.


call adv_1step(x, time)

real(r8), dimension(:), intent(inout) :: x
type(time_type),        intent(in)    :: time

Advances the model for a single time step. The time associated with the initial model state is also input although it is not used for the computation.

x

State vector of length model_size.

time

Unused in this model.


call get_state_meta_data (index_in, location, [, var_type] )

integer,             intent(in)  :: index_in
type(location_type), intent(out) :: location
integer, optional,   intent(out) ::  var_type

Returns the location of the given index, and a dummy integer as the var_type.

index_in

Index of state vector element about which information is requested.

location

Returns location of indexed state variable. The location should use a location_mod that is appropriate for the model domain. For realistic atmospheric models, for instance, a three-dimensional spherical location module that can represent height in a variety of ways is provided.

var_type

Returns the type of the indexed state variable as an optional argument.


call model_interpolate(x, location, itype, obs_val, istatus)

real(r8), dimension(:), intent(in)  :: x
type(location_type),    intent(in)  :: location
integer,                intent(in)  :: itype
real(r8),               intent(out) :: obs_val
integer,                intent(out) :: istatus

A NULL INTERFACE in this model. Always returns istatus = 0.

x

A model state vector.

location

Location to which to interpolate.

itype

Integer indexing which type of state variable is to be interpolated. Can be ignored for low order models with a single type of variable.

obs_val

The interpolated value from the model.

istatus

Quality control information about the observation of the model state.


var = get_model_time_step()

type(time_type) :: get_model_time_step

Returns the models base time step, or forecast length, as a time_type. This is settable in the namelist.

var

Smallest time step of model.


call static_init_model()

Reads the namelist, defines the 2 initial locations of the state variables, and sets the timestep.


call end_model()

A NULL INTERFACE in this model.


call init_time(time)

type(time_type), intent(out) :: time

Returns a time of 0.

time

Initial model time.


call init_conditions(x)

real(r8), dimension(:), intent(out) :: x

Sets 2 initial locations close to the attractor.

x
