Currently, we can run GraphCast using GDAS data on 13 pressure levels. However, the goal is to run GraphCast on 37 pressure levels using GDAS data. Thus, the gdas_utility.py needs to be updated in a way that accounts for both 13 and 37 pressure levels. In addition, in the recent updates on DeepMind's GraphCast repository, some developments have been made to calculate top-of-atmosphere incident solar radiation in operational use cases. Currently, we are using the PySolar package to calculate this variable. This needs to be updated and we need to calculate this variable from new GraphCast functionalities.
