Abstract

This resource expands on a previously published FlexPDE code (doi: 10.4211/hs.98d4192a4f8841149e1502f82b777f69), which solves the coupled partial differential equations describing variable-density fluid flow and solute transport, and heat transfer with salinity-dependent freeze-thaw, by incorporating additional text necessary for analyzing groundwater discharge in the coastal zone. Also included are scripts for -4 degree C and -2 degree C initial surface temperature scenarios.

README.txt

In these folders are the files necessary to run the coastal permafrost and groundwater discharge model. A FlexPDE license of version 7 or newer is necessary to run the scripts. Four folders are provided for the following scenarios: 
* Scenario with -2 C initial surface temperature and k = 1x10^-13 m^2; 
* Scenario with -4 C initial surface temperature and k = 1x10^-13 m^2;  
* Scenario with -4 C initial surface temperature and k = 1x10^-14 m^2;
* Scenarios with -4 C initial surface temperature and k = 1x10^-15 m^2;
Within each folder are three initial condition files for concentration, head and temperature (i.e., initial_conc_k13.dat; initial_head_k13.dat; and initial_temp_k13.dat) corresponding to the intrinsic permeability and initial surface temperature scenario. Additionally, each folder includes four FlexPDE scripts which are distinguished by the scenarios that the script is capable of running. The scenarios are as follows:
1) Scenarios without warming or sea-level rise (SLR)
2) Scenarios with warming but without SLR
3) Scenarios without warming but with SLR
4) Scenarios with warming and SLR
For scenarios 2) & 4), the desired rate of land surface warming (Lw) and ocean warming (Ow) must be specified for the desired warming conditions. For scenarios 3) & 4), the magnitude of sea-level rise (SLR) must be specified. The included simulations refer to warming associated with the RCP 2.6 emissions scenario.
