SCM Diagnostics

bogensch edited this page Feb 26, 2019 · 2 revisions

To take a first look at SCM simulations, users can get the unofficial SCM diagnostics. These are diagnostics written in python and will generate profile and timeseries plots using SCM output. A webpage will be produced for ease of viewing.

The user needs only to change the "user defined settings" at the top of scm_diagnostics.py to control simulation input, desired time averaging periods, etc.

Note that currently the diagnostics can only be used for comparison with other SCM runs. Hence, the functionality to make plots against LES or observational data is not in place. If you add this, feel free to contribute to the diagnostics!

These diagnostics come with no warranty and are provided as a convenience. More documentation/development to come as time allows.
