PyRsw: Python Rotating Shallow Water Model
===================================

PyRsw is a python solver of the Rotating Shallow Water Model. This is an approximate model that can be derived from the full Bossinessq equations in the limit of constant density and strictly hydrostatic motions.

It is more general than the one-layer quasigeostrophic model in that it allows for variable Rossby numbers and can include gravity waves. It is a useful model to study the oceans, the atmosphere and other planetary systems as well.

We hope that this will be of interest both to students and researchers in the field. The aim is to create examples that can illustrate the basic physical processes and documentation that explains it. Then the user can modify it to study other processes.

PyRsw is a work in progress and we greatly value peoples comments and contributions.

Presently, PyRsw is strictly pseudo-spectral but there are plans of including a Finite Volume option.

PyRws is threaded if you have pyfftw installed. If this is not present than the fft’s from numpy will be used instead. Extending this to include mpi would make things run even faster.
