C-Star

Computational Systems for Tracking Ocean Carbon

Setup

First time setup

• Clone this repository and run (from the command line) the script setup_cstar in the setup_cstar directory, providing your system as an argument (e.g. ./setup_cstar osx_arm64_gnu). For a list of supported systems, run setup_cstar --help.
• The setup script will obtain and compile any external code, and also make an environment on your machine to use when running C-Star in future. To activate this environment, run the command cstar_env after completing the setup (note you will have to restart your shell).

Obtaining C-Star blueprints

• With the C-Star environment active (see above), use the command cstar_get_blueprint to obtain and compile a C-Star blueprint. For a list of available blueprint, run cstar_get_blueprint --help.
• C-Star blueprints are saved to ${CSTAR_ROOT}/blueprints
• For help with a specific blueprint, see its README file (e.g. ${CSTAR_ROOT}/blueprints/roms_marbl_example/README.md)
