TFM4all
Timm's Firn Model (TFM) provides a leightweight and fast simulation framework for firn densification compuations. To proove that my simulation framework is the fastest around I set up TFM4all.
You can request a firn profile at any location on earth (make sure your coordinates are located on ice, otherwise you'll receive an error message) using the form below. Simply type in a pair of coordinates, the firn densification model you prefer and a mail address so I can send you the results. You will receive an email containing the results in the form of a file containing comma separated values and a first simple plot.
Forcing
To force the model we currently use ERA5-Land monthly averaged data beginning in 1950 and ending End of June 2022. This means that the firn profile you'll receive represents the state of June 30th 2022. The oldest firn within the profile was deposited on January 1st 1950.
In my opinion one should be careful in interpreting simulated firn profiles in excess of the available forcing. Nevertheless a spin up is needed to build up the firn profile properly. We perfom a five hundred year spinup using constant mean forcing data. Afterwards the period from 1950 to 2022 is simulated.
One of the surface forcing properties is the inital firn density. Unfortunately there are no good data one could use for the simulations. Therefore at the moment a fixed inital surface density of 360 kg/m**-3 is used. I will think of a better solution for the future.
Feedback
If something is not working, you have an idea, you want to simulate something else, or you simply like this idea don't hesitate to contact me.
