NOAA-NESDIS is planning to retire the legacy SMOPS product, a change that will directly impact the LIS DA system. Currently, the LIS DA system assimilates SMOPS data using the following naming convention: "NPR_SMOPS_CMAP_Dyyyymmddhh.gr2". However, the new files will adopt a different naming convention, illustrated as follows: NPR-SMOPS-CMAP-6hrly_v4r0_blend_syyyymmddhh00000_eyyyymmddxxxxxxx_cyyyymmddxxxxxxx.grib2.
To accommodate these changes, we need to update the LIS code to enhance the capability of the DA system to read the new file names. Additionally, we must update the GRIB ID based on the latest version of the GRIB ID table and add modules to read and assimilate ASCAT-Metop-C data.
Below is the GRIB decoder provided by NOAA for the new file names:
210 = blended soil moisture (Blended_SM)
214 = ASCAT_B soil moisture (ASCAT_B_SM)
250 = ASCAT_C soil moisture (ASCAT_C_SM)
215 = AMSR2 soil moisture (AMSR2_SM)
216 = GMI SM (GMI_SM)
217 = NRT SMAP SM (NSMAP_SM)
218 = SMAP SM (SMAP_SM)
219 = Blended SM SD (Blended_SM_SD)
220 = Hour for blended soil moisture (Blended_hour)
221 = Minute for blended soil moisture (Blended_minute)
228 = Hour for ASCAT_B soil moisture (ASCAT_B_hour)
229 = Minute for ASCAT_B soil moisture (ASCAT_B_minute)
251 = Hour for ASCAT_C soil moisture (ASCAT_C_hour)
252 = Minute for ASCAT_C soil moisture (ASCAT_C_minute)
230 = Hour for AMSR2 soil moisture (AMSR2_hour)
231 = Minute for AMSR2 soil moisture (AMSR2_minute)
232 = Hour for GMI SM (GMI_hour)
233 = Minute for GMI SM (GMI_minute)
234 = Hour for NSMAP SM (NSMAP_hour)
235 = Minute for NSMAP SM (NSMAP_minute)
236 = Hour for SMAP SM (SMAP_hour)
237 = Minute for SMAP SM (SMAP_minute)
238 = Hour for spare 1 (Blended_SM_SD_hour)
239 = Minute for spare 1 (Blended_SM_SD_minute)
240 = QA for blended soil moisture (Blended_QA)
244 = QA for ASCAT_B soil moisture (ASCAT_B_QA)
253 = QA for ASCAT_C soil moisture (ASCAT_C_QA)
245 = QA for AMSR2 soil moisture (AMSR2_QA)
246 = QA for GMI SM (GMI_QA)
247 = QA for NSMAP (NSMAP_QA)
248 = QA for SMAP SM (SMAP_QA)
249 = QA for spare 1 (Blended_SM_SD_QA)
