Welcome to Geosciences Modeling Wiki

Welcome to the Geosciences LATTICE Wiki. The purpose of these pages is to provide information on software tools available for data analysis and scientific program for LATTICE and other relevant projects. Overall, the objective of this site is to create a 'go to' location where incoming students who will be working with modeling can find tips for getting started.

NOTE: While we are requiring registration, and have the pages hidden from anonymous viewers, the pages are public facing, meaning they may be visible to users outside of NILU. Please be thoughtful when posting scripts or information on the system infrastructure. Jfb 12:50, 14 September 2011 (CEST)

Make a contribution

Here is a list of NeededUpdates. Feel free to tackle something from the list!

Tools and Topics

FLEXPART_Model

Information and resources for running and setting up FLEXPART. Mostly geared toward the ATMOS users.

FLEXINVERT

Bayesian inversion code for use with FLEXPART

ECMWF

Decriptions of how to get data in various ways from the ECMWF server.

Python

A starting point for all-things Python. Provides information on best practices, different packages that are frequently used, and other information to make using Python at NILU easier.

Tools for WorkingOnServers at NILU.

An important resource for anyone using the servers.

General Fortran Tips

Some general usage tips for coding in FORTRAN.

Matlab (Not open source, but extensively used)

Contributions from MATLAB users (mostly related to FLEXPART)

Plone

Content managment system used for displaying FLEXPART forecasts

Editing pages on the niluOS MediaWiki

A good starting place for markup reference can be found here: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Wikitext_examples

Another point is that this wiki is using Subpages, so in places you'll see reference to a <subpages .> tag. This just means that the list of subpages will be dynamically generated in that location.

Editing Source Code

Note that for the purposes of documenting source code there are two important features:

1. use the <code> ... </code> to show some simple code snippets: def foo(): return
2. The syntax highlighting extension has been installed, so you can wrap source code examples in <syntaxhighlight> tags. This is helpful for documenting a code example and supports many languages. Usage is simple. Here's an example of how to display some 'Hello World' source code examples:

<syntaxhighlight lang='cs'>
//Hello World in C#
class HelloWorld
{
    static void Main()
    {
        System.Console.WriteLine("Hello, World!");
    }
}

</syntaxhighlight>
<syntaxhighlight lang='cpp'>
// Hello World in C++ (pre-ISO)

#include <iostream.h>

main()
{
    cout << "Hello World!" << endl;
    return 0;
}



</syntaxhighlight>
<syntaxhighlight lang='python'>
# Hello World in Python
print("Hello World")
</syntaxhighlight>

Results in:

//Hello World in C#
class HelloWorld
{
    static void Main()
    {
        System.Console.WriteLine("Hello, World!");
    }
}

C++
	Back to index

// Hello World in C++ (pre-ISO)

#include <iostream.h>

main()
{
    cout << "Hello World!" << endl;
    return 0;
}

# Hello World in Python
print("Hello World")
