How to process results of experiments to generate plots (once you've done the experiments, this will post-process the BISICLES plotfiles). You will need a working C++ compiler (to build some utilities) and gnuplot (to make the plots).

1. in the BISICLES installation, go to code/filetools and "make stats" -- this will build the utility which reads in BISICLES plotfiles and computes things like total grounded area and total(volume over flotation), which is used to compute the contribution to sea level rise.

2. in this directory, execute the "makeLinks.sh" script (ideally just "./makeLinks.sh") -- this creates symbolic links to the various experiment directories.

3. edit "bisicles_stats.py" and edit line 20 to point to the "stats" executable you just built, including the full filename.

4. "python bisicles_stats.py" -- runs the stats utility on all BISICLES plofiles in the experiment directories pointed at by the symbolic links.

5. if you aren't using g++ as your c++ compiler, edit util/GNUmakefile and set CXX to point to your C++ compiler.

6. ./makePlots.sh

7. You should have png files with the various plots of grounded area and volume over flotation.
