getRunTimeDomain.CFS: Provides run time definition for the CFSv2 model

In SantanderMetGroup/loadeR.ECOMS: A loadeR extension for accessing the ECOMS User Data Gateway (<http://meteo.unican.es/ecoms-udg>)

Provides run time definition for the CFSv2 model

Description

Output is passed to getRunTimeDomain.ECOMS for used-defined subsets.

Usage

getRunTimeDomain.CFS(runDatesAll, validMonth, members, years, dataset)

Arguments

runDatesAll	A POSIXlt vector with all runtime dates in the dataset
validMonth	Integer. Initialization month.
members	A vector defining members to select, as passed by loadSeasonlForecast
years	Years selected (see loadECOMS)
dataset	Target hindcast dataset (see loadECOMS)

Details

The lagged runtime configuration of CFSv2 means that ensemble members are defined by different initializations, so that the dimension ensemble does not exist per se, but is defined by different initializations.

It may happen that there are not enough initializations for the last year to retrieve the data for all the initializations requested. In this case, the last year in selection is suppressed with a warning. If the selection corresponds to one single year, the query is automatically updated to the maximum number of available members, with a warning.

Value

A list with two elements:

• runDatesEnsList a list of the same length as the number of members selected, with the initialization dates

• runTimesEnsList a list of the same length as the number of members selected, with a list of initialization times, in the form of java ranges, as required by makeSubset.

• years The years vector, updated if necessary. See details.
