The Air Force is upgrading their SNODEP model in July 2022. It will provide a global 9km snow and ice analysis in GRIB2 format. It will also backfill the 23 km N and S hemisphere GRIB1 files currently used in OPS.

  • /gpfs/dell1/nco/ops/dcom/prod/20220315/wgrbbul/NPR.SNWN.SP.S1200.MESH16 (NH)
  • /gpfs/dell1/nco/ops/dcom/prod/20220315/wgrbbul/NPR.SNWS.SP.S1200.MESH16 (SH)

At some point - the Air Force does not have a hard date - the 23 km backfilled files will be discontinued. So the snow2mdl program will need to be updated to use the new 9 km GRIB2 data.

Will need to coordinate this change with the obsproc and land teams.

Sample data is located on Venus: /gpfs/dell2/emc/modeling/noscrub/George.Gayno/afwa_new

I ran snow2mdl using the sample 23 km backfilled files and got correct results. See the scripts and config files in /gpfs/dell2/emc/modeling/noscrub/George.Gayno/afwa_new

Ability to read the new global GRIB2 0.09-degree data was added at 2326904.

The new AFWA 0.09-degree global data was tested using the branch at 35e9f1f and the scripts and config file in /gpfs/dell2/emc/modeling/noscrub/George.Gayno/afwa_new (Venus).

  • fort.41.global - program config file
  • run.sh - the run script.

Here are plots from the test. Note that the input and output data (at T1534) match. The branch is working.
