keyword_APS3_Bufr_remote_copy_sam_MARS_ASCAT_soil_wetness resolution_fixed | by jtl548@nci.org.au


Up until now our global suites used the ASCAT L2 soil wetness data that are archived on sam: sam:/global/ha-sam/mrlr/gen/idharss/ascat. This archive has problems,

The new suites which are used for all-sky work and which Fiona is porting currently (they are based on the PS39 and PS40 global standard suites) require ASCAT Bufr files which are not in the sam archive. We will have to use ASCAT data which are available from marsop.

Note 1. In marsop only MetOp-2 (=MetOp-B) is available Note 2. In marsdev only MetOp-1 is available; also the data from marsdev show strange lines which are perpendicular to swathes

This ticket describes a new script to allow retrievals of ASCAT data from marsop and their transfer to Raijin.

Hi Fiona,

When you have time would you be able to review the script that retrieves ASCAT L2 Bufr files from marsop and copies them to Raijin?

Thanks.

If you want any future enhancements, I'd suggest allowing the user to specify the directory on raijin where the obs should go, and maybe checking the format of the $bdt arguments.

But we can save that for another time. As it is, it looks like it will do the job to me, so you can go ahead and commit.

I have added a minor comment to indicate some of the hard-wired variables, which would be better supplied by the user (for future improvement).

The latest revision which is at ![623] is installed on the following embery location,

embery:/data/access/da/utilities/bufr/move2raijin_ascat_ekf_bufr
