Current wish list
Restartdone- Read topography from file in ideal run
- Smoothing the terrain gradients for fire spread
- Canopy fire
- Output to WRF-Chem
Anything more? Jmandel 18:59, 19 January 2010 (UTC)
Proposed input of additional data in ideal run
- Single topography for both the atmosphere and the fire models - from an arbitrary rectangular mesh aligned with coordinate axes
- Fuel data for the fire model - at the centers of the fire mesh
- Surface data for WRF - see e.g.
/dyn_em/module_initialize_seabreeze2d_x.F
aroundcall ns_set_iswater
, at centers of the atmosphere mesh ("mass points")
The input will be done similarly as in dyn_em/module_initialize_b_wave.F
per suggestion of the WRF developers. See subroutine read_input_jet
.
This is as far as we want to go in ideal.exe, more complicated data input should be done trhough real.exe.
