Arguments

location_name

an assigned name for the CALMET domain.

year

the year for the SURF.DAT file.

lat_dec_deg

the latitude of the CALMET domain in decimal degrees. The location of this point is defined in the lat_long_grid_loc argument.

lon_dec_deg

the longitude of the CALMET domain in decimal degrees. The location of this point is defined in the lat_long_grid_loc argument.

lat_lon_grid_loc

the location of the lat/long inputs in relation to the domain. Choices are: 1 (center), 2 (lower left), 3 (lower right), 4 (upper left), 5 (upper right).

domain_width_m

the width of the meteorological domain in meters.

domain_height_m

the height of the meteorological domain in meters.

cell_resolution_m

the grid cell resolution in meters.

time_offset

the offset from UTC-00:00 in hours.

local_archive_dir

a local path containing an archive of gzipped NCDC station data files.

use_CSV_files

option to use local, pre-processed CSV files.
