Example programs

The Yelmo base code provides a static library interface that can be used in other programs, as well as a couple of stand-alone programs for running certain benchmarks. Here we provide more examples of how to use Yelmo:

1. Program template to connect with other models/components.
2. Stand-alone ice sheet with full boundary forcing.

In both cases, it is necessary to download the Yelmo repository separately, as well as compile the Yelmo static library (see Getting started).

Program template

This is a minimalistic setup that allows you to run Yelmo with no dependencies and a straightforward Makefile. This template can be used to design a new stand-alone Yelmo experiment, or to provide guidance when adding Yelmo to another program.

Stand-alone ice sheet with full boundary forcing (yelmox)

This setup is suitable for glacial-cycle simulations, future simulations or any other typical (realistic) ice-sheet model simulation.
