NOC-MSM/Belize_workshop: Belize workshop (regional NEMO ocean in Docker container)

Instructions and code examples to build and run a regional NEMO (https://www.nemo-ocean.eu/) ocean model and apply some post simulation analysis. The workflow uses Docker containers and are designed to be run on consumer laptops. We cover the following topics:

Introduction to Docker Download and setup Docker. Download and setup (or build) NEMO and XIOS server in a Docker container. Running NEMO Download and setup Miniconda (Python) in a Docker container. Plotting and animating surface fields with Python. Analysis of NEMO outputs with PARCELS. This work has been supported by a number of projects:
