met_prof
Extract vertical profile from meteorological data.
# calling met_prof
$ ./met_prof <ctl> <prof.tab> <met0> [<met1> ...]
The required arguments are:
- ctl: The file containing the control parameters.
- prof.tab: The output file in which the profile data should be stored.
- \<met0> [\<met1> ...]: The meteorological input data.
Example control-file settings for creating a 1 km resolution vertical profile from global ERA5 data sampled on a 1° x 1° grid:
PROF_LON0 = -180
PROF_LON1 = 180
PROF_LAT0 = -90
PROF_LAT1 = 90
PROF_DLON = 1
PROF_DLAT = 1
PROF_Z0 = 0
PROF_Z1 = 25
PROF_DZ = 1
Example call:
./met_prof prof.ctl prof_era5_2017_01_08_17_1_1.tab era5_2017_01_08_17.nc
The optional control parameters required are listed as follows:
| parameter | purpose | default |
|---|---|---|
| PROF_Z0 | Altitude range start [km] | -999 |
| PROF_Z1 | Altitude range end [km] | -999 |
| PROF_DZ | Altitude interval [km] | -999 |
| PROF_LON0 | Longitude range start | 0 |
| PROF_LON1 | Longitude range end | 0 |
| PROF_DLON | Longitude interval | -999 |
| PROF_LAT0 | Latitude range start | 0 |
| PROF_LAT1 | Latitude range end | 0 |
| PROF_DLAT | Latitude interval | -999 |
