Introduction

This package contains the input parameters used in each of the precursor (S01 - S04) and main runs (S05 - S12) presented in the manuscript “Increased mixing and turbulence in the wake of offshore wind farm foundations”. These input files are found in the PDF file "S01_S12".

The main runs, in which the wake of a monopile was simulated (S05, S07, S09, S11), require a topography file, which is a NETCDF-file that has been uploaded separately (S13). All simulations were run using the Parallelized Large-Eddy Simulation Model for atmospheric and oceanic flows (PALM, version 4.0, revision 2504).

Further, this package contains the data sets collected using the towed chain in 2015 (ds01-ds06, ds15) and 2017 (ds07-ds14, ds16), which have been uploaded as separate NETCDF-files.
