#### 2D/3D ocean model with ROMS-style numerics

TorusOcean is a regional 2D/3D ocean model implementing nonlinear shallow
water and primitive equations in sigma/S coordinates with ROMS-style numerics:
Arakawa C-grid, mode-split barotropic/baroclinic solver, Adams-Bashforth 3rd
order time stepping, and optional GPU compute via wgpu (Vulkan/Metal/D3D12).

Features:

* Nonlinear shallow water equations (2D barotropic)
* Primitive equations in sigma/S coordinates (3D baroclinic)
* Arakawa C-grid staggering
* Mode-split time stepping (Adams-Bashforth 3rd order)
* Multithreaded via Rayon
* JSON-based configuration
* CSV and NetCDF output (NetCDF requires system libnetcdf)

## Enable snaps on Manjaro Linux and install TorusOcean

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

Snapd can be installed from Manjaro’s Add/Remove Software application (Pamac), found in the launch menu. From the application, search for *snapd*, select the result, and click Apply.

Alternatively, *snapd* can be installed from the command line:

```
sudo pacman -S snapd
```

Once installed, the *systemd* unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:

```
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
```

To enable *classic* snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between `/var/lib/snapd/snap` and `/snap`:

```
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
```

Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.

### Install TorusOcean

To install TorusOcean, simply use the following command:

```
sudo snap install torusocean --edge
```
