class opendrift.models.seaicedrift.SeaIceDrift(*args, **kwargs)[source]

Trajectory model based on the OpenDrift framework.

Simply propagation with ocean sea ice (this module is not for ice bergs) Developed at MET Norway.

Initialise OpenDriftSimulation

Args:

seed: integer or None. A given integer will yield identical: random numbers drawn each simulation. Random numbers are e.g. used to distribute particles spatially when seeding, and may be used by modules (subclasses) for e.g. diffusion. Specifying a fixed value (default: 0) is useful for sensitivity tests. With seed = None, different random numbers will be drawn for subsequent runs, even with identical configuration/input.
iomodule: name of module used to export data: default: netcdf, see opendrift.io for more alternatives. iomodule is module/filename without preceeding io_
loglevel: set to 0 (default) to retrieve all debug information.: Provide a higher value (e.g. 20) to receive less output. Use the string ‘custom’ to configure logging from outside.
logtime: if True, a time stamp is given for each logging line.: logtime can also be given as a python time specifier (e.g. ‘%H:%M:%S’)
