GEOS-FP and MERRA-2 constant data files
If you are downloading the GEOS-FP or MERRA-2 met data, then please note that you must also download the "CN" (constant) data files for each horizontal grid that you are using.
For GEOS-FP these are timestamped for 2011/01/01 and are found in these data directories:
- ExtData/GEOS_0.25x0.3125/GEOS_FP/2011/01/GEOSFP.20110101.CN.025x03125.nc
- ExtData/GEOS_0.25x0.3125_AS/GEOS_FP/2011/01/GEOSFP.20110101.CN.025x03125.AS.nc
- ExtData/GEOS_0.25x0.3125_CH/GEOS_FP/2011/01/GEOSFP.20110101.CN.025x03125.CH.nc
- ExtData/GEOS_0.25x0.3125_EU/GEOS_FP/2011/01/GEOSFP.20110101.CN.025x03125.EU.nc
- ExtData/GEOS_0.25x0.3125_NA/GEOS_FP/2011/01/GEOSFP.20110101.CN.025x03125.NA.nc
- ExtData/GEOS_2x2.5/GEOS_FP/2011/01/GEOSFP.20110101.CN.2x25.nc
- ExtData/GEOS_4x5/GEOS_FP/2011/01/GEOSFP.20110101.CN.4x5.nc
For MERRA-2 these are timestamped for 2015/01/01 and are found in these data directories :
- ExtData/GEOS_0.5x0.625/MERRA2/2015/01/MERRA2.20150101.CN.05x0625.nc4
- ExtData/GEOS_0.5x0.625_AS/MERRA2/2015/01/MERRA2.20150101.CN.05x0625.AS.nc4
- ExtData/GEOS_0.5x0.625_CH/MERRA2/2015/01/MERRA2.20150101.CN.05x0625.CH.nc4
- ExtData/GEOS_0.5x0.625_EU/MERRA2/2015/01/MERRA2.20150101.CN.05x0625.EU.nc4
- ExtData/GEOS_0.5x0.625_NA/MERRA2/2015/01/MERRA2.20150101.CN.05x0625.NA.nc4
- ExtData/GEOS_2x2.5/MERRA2/2015/01/MERRA2.20150101.CN.2x25.nc4
- ExtData/GEOS_4x5/MERRA2/2015/01/MERRA2.20150101.CN.4x5.nc4
Additional notes:
- Prior to downloading GEOS-FP data, please be aware of caveats regarding use of GEOS-FP. See the GEOS-FP wiki page for more information.

Data download commands
We recommend that you use the free and open-source wget utility to download data from Compute Canada. Most modern Unix systems have wget already installed.
Basic syntax
The basic formula to download data from Compute Canada to your local server is:
wget OPTIONS "http://geoschemdata.computecanada.ca/ExtData/DIRECTORY_NAME"
NOTE: The URL must be enclosed in quotes for file transfer to occur. If you omit the quotes then wget will just return a directory listing in a file named index.html without any files being downloaded.
Commonly used options with wget are:
wget option | Description |
---|---|
-np | Will not allow ascent to the parent directory |
-nH | Omits the remote root directory name from the local directory name.
|
-N | Downloads only those files having newer timestamps than any local copies. |
-P path | Copies data to the specified directory
|
-r | Specifies recursive directory transfer (i.e. will download all subdirectories). |
-R "*.html" | Skips downloading files ending in *.html. |
Examples
1. Download remote directory geoschemdata.computecanada.ca/ExtData/DIRECTORY_NAME to ./ExtData/DIRECTORY_NAME.
wget -r -np -nH -N -R "*.html" "http://geoschemdata.computecanada.ca/ExtData/DIRECTORY_NAME"
2. Similar to Example 1 above, but will download remote directory geoschemdata.computecanada.ca/ExtData/DIRECTORY_NAME to ./DIRECTORY_NAME. We have used --cut-dirs=1 to trim one level off the downloaded directory.
wget -r -np -nH -N -R "*.html" --cut-dirs=1 "http://geoschemdata.computecanada.ca/ExtData/DIRECTORY_NAME/"
3. Similar to Example 1 above, but wll download the directory geoschemdata.computecanada.ca/ExtData/DIRECTORY_NAME to /pub/gcgrid/data/ExtData/DIRECTORY_NAME:
wget -r -np -nH -N -R "*.html" -P /pub/gcgrid/data "http://geoschemdata.computecanada.ca/ExtData/DIRECTORY_NAME"
