Here are T2 and U10 plots in addition to QE and QH that we discussed today:

Thanks Hamid. Could you please add me into discussion in the future so that I can learn?

hamidrezaomidvar commented 4 years ago

@zhwenluo The discussion was in the Metmicro team group meeting today. I can show the results again in our weekly meetings like tomorrow.

The wind is strange

sunt05 commented 4 years ago

The wind is strange

yes, indeed.

which kernel version is the current coupling based on?

It is this commit

suegrimmond commented 4 years ago

Could we see a plot of the heights agl. and height asl Maybe we should look a the wind at higher height now as well

sunt05 commented 4 years ago

@hamidrezaomidvar please add a plot showing the mean building/tree heights so we understand the characteristics of surface roughness.

I checked the kernel version: it stays at the 2018 series. so the near-surface diagnostics (Tair, wind speed, etc) are known to be problematic in a sense.

hamidrezaomidvar commented 4 years ago

Ok, I will add the heights. For Building height, we have information for Colombo part, and I have added to it. For tree height, We probably need to get some Local data. There are some parameters I still need to add before the runs. That is why starting with initial runs is helpful to start identifying the problems

We can discuss this to see how it is affecting the results.

hamidrezaomidvar commented 4 years ago

This is the set building height. For the grids that the urban fraction is greater than 0, the building height is set, so that's why you see this extend of building height. For the Colombo area, I used the available data as you can see, but for the rest, a default value is used for now.
