Description#

This is a coarse ICON ocean shallow water configuration based on Williamson et al., 1992 (Test 2, Global Steady State Nonlinear Zonal Geostrophic Flow). There is only one vertical layer, no surface forcing and a flat bottom. The dynamics results from the specified initial conditions. This configuration tests the capability of ICON to run with shallow water equations.
