GLIMMER is available from [http://forge.nesc.ac.uk/projects/glimmer].

When you build GLIMMER for use with GENIE, be sure to:

* Set FCFLAGS to -DGLIMMER_SP. For example if you use BASH or KSH:
<pre>export FCFLAGS="-DGLIMMER_SP"</pre>
* Run configure with the appropriate arguments. For example:
<pre>
/configure --prefix=/home/ggdagw/glimmer-1.0.4 FC=ifort --with-netcdf=/opt/local/intel_fc_81
</pre>

GENIE is expecting to find glimmer in the dir '''~/glimmer_genie_version''', so you can either edit this in '''genie-main/user.mak''' or create a symbolic link in your home directory with the name 'glimmer_genie_version' to point to your most recently downloaded version of GLIMMER.

 GLIMMER is available from the [http://forge.nesc.ac.uk/projects/glimmer Glimmer project page]. Documentation is also available from this site. It is recommended that the latest version of Glimmer should be used; GENIE will not build with versions of Glimmer prior to 1.0.4.
