FA parameter names

Description

a harp-style parameter is translated to the field name in ALARO/AROME/HARMONIE model output in FA format

Usage

get_fa_param_info(
  param,
  fa_type = "arome",
  fa_vector = TRUE,
  rotate_wind = FALSE
)

Arguments

param	Parameter name
fa_type	could be 'alaro' or 'arome'. These models store e.g. precipitation under a different name.
fa_vector	A logical value. TRUE means that e.g. wind speed will be calculated from wind vector components, not searched as a separate field.
rotate_wind	If TRUE, wind fields (U, V, direction) are rotated from model axes to earth axes.

Value

A 16 character string, or in rare cases a vector of several strings denoting the components (e.g. total precipitation may be the sum of up to 4 fields).
