Incorporate global 30-sec MODIS vegetation data and STATSGO soil data. #702
Comments
A program and run script to create this data was baselined on Hera: |
soil type data to use. Update all driver script comments. Fixes ufs-community#702.
Add export of soil type data source variable. Fixes ufs-community#702.
First set of tests: These updates should not affect the current grid generating capability. So, the branch at a67cd3d was compiled on Orion, Jet, Hera and Cactus, and the ops 'fix' directories were linked. The |
The 30 second MODIS vegetation type and STATSGO soil type were placed on Hera: There are CONUS, Northern Hemisphere and global versions:

@BenjaminBlake-NOAA Would you mind trying these new files? Check out my branch (a67cde3) on Hera (or test using your workflow). When you set the links in the 'fix' directory, set to the link to |
@GeorgeGayno-NOAA I tested the new files for the RRFS CONUS and North American grids, and both sets of fix files were created successfully. |
I created a CONUS regional grid with all 30 sec data files (global, NH and CONUS). The output model vegetation and soil type files were identical as expected (because the NH and CONUS files are just sub-sections of the global file). I then created the CONUS grid using the 0.05-degree vegetation and soil type data. Upon visual inspection, the vegetation and soil type files compared well to those created using the 30 second data. |
@KateFriedman-NOAA Can you please add these files to the 'sfc_climo' directory on all machines. You can also remove the following files:
Many thanks! |
@GeorgeGayno-NOAA Done on Hera, rsyncing to other platforms now:
|
I just checked all platforms, and the files are there. Thanks! |
Updates to use the MODIS vegetation data and STATSGO soil data at its full global 30-second resolution. Fixes #702.
Issue #698 was open to add the 30-sec VIIRS vegetation data. The MODIS vegetation data and STATSGO soil data are also available to 30-sec. Currently, only coarser resolution versions are available. Update UFS_UTILS to use the 30-sec data.
