Xia Sun, Dec 10, 2022

Description

Rocoto workflow and job scripts to run SCM simulations over an array of columns for extended periods of time. The scripts are developed based on the Common Community Physics Package (CCPP) SCM. The workflow includes seven jobs, pertaining to pre-processing, SCM simulations, and post-processing:

• combine_ic - combine initial condition (IC) data files temporally
• split_ic - split 4-D IC dataset generatede from combine_ic to single columns
• run_scm - conduct SCM runs over all columns.
• latlon_move - Add latitude and longitude dimensions to the output.nc generated from CCPP SCM and them to a separate Results directory
• concate_inst - Concatenate the SCM instantanous variables spatially
• concate_accum - Concatenate the SCM accumulative variables spatially
• concate_time - Concatenate all SCM results temporarily

Prerequisites

• Rocoto Workflow Management System
• Python
• GNU Parallel

Usage

rocotorun -d scm_auto.db -w scm_auto.xml

More information on how to use Rocoto are available in the Rocoto documentation.
