7. Retrieve ECMWF fields for FLEXPART
From mn/geo/geoit
Uses number of fortran scripts which are run on MARS.
More details are given in the documents on the webpage:
http://transport.nilu.no/flexpart under Routines for retrieval of FLEXTRA/FLEXPART input data from ECMWF
1. Need to copy the following directory and files to your home directory on ecgate:
cp -r /home/ms/sbc/flex_extract_ecgate_V4/ YourDestination
List of files:
flex_ecmwf_91_global_1.0_ecgate extract_ecmwf_ftpbase seq_control.V4 seq_extract.V4 submit source.tar
2. Edit the times in the file:
seq_control.V4
3. Check that the file flex_ecmwf_91_global_1.0_ecgate contains the following:
----------------------------------- BEGIN: modification of config file ----------------------------------- cat <<EOF >CONTROL_ERA DAY1 YYYYMMDD1 DAY2 YYYYMMDD2 DTIME 3 FORCE_EPS 0 FORCE_EI 0 M_GRID 100 M_LEFT -17800 M_LOWER -9000 M_UPPER 9000 M_RIGHT 18100 M_LEVEL 91 M_RESOL 255 M_GAUSS 1 M_ACCURACY 24 M_OMEGA 0 M_OMEGADIFF 0 M_SMOOTH 0 M_ADDPAR /27/28/173/186/187/188/235/139/39 M_FORMAT GRIB2 GATEWAY ecaccess.ecmwf.int DESTINATION flexpart (or change to your ECSTORAGE 1 ECTRANS 1 ECFSDIR ectmp:/${USER}/oper_YYYY_MM/ MAILOPS ${USER} MAILFAIL ${USER} EXEDIR . SOURCECODE ecgate:flex_extract_ecgate_V4 EOF ----------------------------------- - END: modification of config file -----------------------------------
4. Change all paths to refer to your own user
5. Copy the template file flex_ecmwf_91_global_1.0_ecgate to extract_ecmwf_ftpbase
cp flex_ecmwf_91_global_1.0_ecgate extract_ecmwf_ftpbase
6. Run the job:
./submit
7. Check your job:
llq to see your job in the queue eoj <jobid> provides details on the performance of a running job. (also automatically provided at end of job)
Check flexpart documentation on website to see how to generate files for flexpart, for example for nested sub-domain
