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)
