Add task to process reforecast variables to save on WCOSS2 #2680

Open EricSinsky-NOAA opened 2 weeks ago

EricSinsky-NOAA commented 2 weeks ago

Description

This PR adds an optional task to the global-workflow to process a subset of ocean, ice, wave and atmosphere products to be saved on WCOSS2 for the GEFSv13 reforecast. This task is designed to process GEFS variables so that specific reforecast product requirements are met. A new variable in config.base called DO_EXTRACTVARS enables this task, which is currently called extractvars. DO_EXTRACTVARS is set to NO by default and is specifically a task designed to be executed for the GEFSv13 reforecast. This PR is currently a draft. Even though this PR can function without it, it will need to be tested after PR #2559 is merged.

How has this been tested?

This has been cloned and tested on WCOSS2. This will need to be tested on Hera and other platforms on which the reforecast may be running.
