+### What this folder is for
+
+This folder contains MOM6 configuration files (MOM_parameter_doc.all) for the simulations used in the paper by Kong & Jansen (2020).
+
+### What files are what
+Each file provides specific MOM6 parameters for each simulation that's used in the paper. The suffixes of filenames briefly denote how each simulation is configured. Each suffix has 3 components: the topography & sponge layer setup, the eddy parameterization, and the peak wind stress. Below are how each component is named.
+
+#### For the topography/sponge setup:
+
+- cn1 refers to the setups with full topography and no sponge layer;
+- cn3 refers to the setups with flat bottom and no sponge layer;
+- cn6 refers to the setups with full topography and sponge layer;
+- cn9 refers to the setups with flat bottom and sponge layer.
+
+#### For the eddy parameterizations:
+
+- p1 refers to the 0.1 degree simulations (i.e. eddy-resolving);
+- G7/G6/.../G1/G0 refers to \kappa_GM = 700/600/.../100/0 m^2/s eddy parameterizations;
+- GVp015 refers to the Visbeck parameterization;
+- GoMap12 refers to the (original) MEKE parameterization;
+- GnMap12 refers to the topographic MEKE parameterization. 
+
+#### For the peak wind stress:
+
+tp0/05/1/2/3 refers to peak wind stress \tau_0 = 0/0.05/0.1/0.2/0.3 Pa
