Use USGS land use categories #9

Closed lewisjared closed 1 month ago

lewisjared commented 1 month ago

Description

Use USGS 24-category land use data. While diving into the CMAQ code I noticed that there was some modified code that depends on the USGS land use categories

The default landuse data in WRFv4 is now based on MODIS.

Note that the other templates use 10m resolution data when the 30s dataset is freely available. @prayner We should likely update to the higher resolution version in the production domain

Notes

This is pulling out one of the modifications in #6 to try and make it a bit smaller

Added follow up issue re the land use category resolution #12

prayner commented 1 month ago

Just a note that there was an incompatibility between some of WRF's surface schemes and some land-use class definitions in one of these files. If that's not happening it's probably ok but I should check the old commits to see if Jeremy left info about this.
