Welcome to MOM6 - a next-generation open-source ocean model that combines the best of GOLD (http://code.google.com/p/gold-omod/) and MOM5 (http://mom-ocean.org). This wiki describes the installation and setup of MOM6 and the accompanying sea ice model, SIS2. It also outlines how you can contribute to help build a better ocean model.

The MOM6-examples repository provides all the configuration data for MOM6 and SIS2 experiments. The MOM6 and SIS2 source codes reside in their own repositories. This wiki is devoted to the installation and setup of MOM6 & SIS2, as well as the procedures for working with these three repositories. The rationale about the three-repositories is provided in about MOM6-examples.
