Integration parameters
Fields:
- ntrans transient period (e.g. 1e7)
- niter length of trajectory on the attractor (e.g. 5e8)
- dt the time step
- out_prefix prefix for the output file name
- writeout write out all variables every 10 time units
- m

Model parameters
Fields:
- scale the characteristic space scale, L*pi
- f0 Coriolis parameter at 45 degrees latitude
- n aspect ratio (n = 2Ly/Lx ; Lx = 2piL/n; Ly = pi*L)
- rra earth radius
- phi0 latitude Parameters for the ocean
- gp reduced gravity
- r frictional coefficient at the bottom of the ocean
- H depth of the water layer
- alpha coefficient characterizing the intensification of the flow on the western boundaries
- d the coupling parameter (should be divided by f0 in order to be adimensional) Parameters for the atmosphere
- k bottom friction coefficient
- kp internal friction coefficient
- hpp coefficient associated with the thermal relaxation time scale (Newtonian heating)
- sig0 static stability
- thetastar Newtonian heating parameter; a value of 0.14 should produce chaos.
