Overview
In the sections below, we present a list of naming conventions for netCDF diagnostics that we developed last year. GCST member Bob Yantosca will be working on the transition to netCDF diagnostics very soon so feel free to follow up with him on suggested names.
An introduction to netCDF diagnostics
Bob Yantosca has created an overview presentation about the new netCDF diagnostics for v11-02.
Sample HISTORY.rc diagnostic input file
Here is a sample HISTORY.rc file that is used to request netCDF diagnostic output from a GEOS-Chem “Classic” simulation. The names for netCDF diagnostic quantities follow the naming convention listed above.
COLLECTIONS: 'SpeciesConc', 'ConcAfterChem', :: SpeciesConc.template: '%y4%m2%d2_%h2%n2z.nc4', SpeciesConc.frequency: 060000, SpeciesConc.format: 'CFIO', SpeciesConc.duration: 240000, SpeciesConc.mode: 'instantaneous', SpeciesConc.fields: 'SpeciesConc_?ADV?', 'GIGCchem', :: ConcAfterChem.template: '%y4%m2%d2_%h2%n2z.nc4', ConcAfterChem.frequency: 000100 000000, ConcAfterChem.format: 'CFIO', ConcAfterChem.duration: 000100 000000, ConcAfterChem.mode: 'time-averaged', ConcAfterChem.fields: 'OHconcAfterChem', 'GIGCchem', 'HO2concAfterChem', 'GIGCchem', 'O1DconcAfterChem', ‘GIGCchem’, 'O3PconcAfterChem', ‘GIGCchem’, ::
In this HISTORY.rc file, we are requesting two collections, or types of netCDF file output.
- The first collection (SpeciesConc) is instantaneous (aka timeseries) output with a 6-hour frequency. A new file will be created every 24 hours.
- The second collection (ConcAfterChem) is time-averaged output. Data will be updated at the dynamic timestep (= 10 minutes for most GEOS-Chem simulations) by default and averaged into monthly-mean output. A new file will be created at the start of each new month.
- The diagnostic quantities (aka "fields") that will be archived in each collection are listed after the “fields” tag. These diagnostic quantities follow the naming convention described in the previous section.
- For GEOS-Chem “Classic” simulations, you may use wildcards to request a multiple quantities. For example, instead of listing SpeciesConc_NO, SpeciesConc_O3, SpeciesConc_PAN, SpeciesConc_CO, etc. individually, you can use SpeciesConc_?ADV? to request all of the advected GEOS_Chem species.
- The "GIGCchem" text is only relevant for GCHP and will be ignored for GEOS-Chem “Classic” simulations.
For more examples, please see Bob Yantosca’s netCDF diagnostics overview presentation. We will also add more documentation to the GEOS-Chem wiki in the coming weeks.
