1.2. Quick Start

Download the model from the CICE-Consortium repository,

https://github.com/CICE-Consortium/Icepack

Instructions for working in github with Icepack (and CICE) can be found in the CICE Git and Workflow Guide.

From your main Icepack directory, execute:

./icepack.setup -c ~/mycase1 -m testmachine
cd ~/mycase1
./icepack.build
./icepack.submit

testmachine is a generic machine name included with the icepack scripts. The local machine name will have to be substituted for testmachine and there are working ports for several different machines. However, it may be necessary to port the model to a new machine. See Porting for more information about how to port. See Scripts for more information about how to use the icepack.setup and icepack.submit scripts.

Please cite any use of the Icepack code. More information can be found at Citing the Icepack code.
