convert to regular lat lon grid

[518er2005]

It is known that by using the "convert_mpas" module, we can convert the mpas outputs to the desired resolution of a regular "lat lon" grid. Suppose I gave a regional simulation for a 10 km mesh and got the "diag" and "history" files. What I want to know is if there is any code using which we can convert the mpas outputs directly into NetCDF files of a regular lat/long grid.

Please download the convert_mpas package from GitHub:

GitHub - mgduda/convert_mpas: A general conversion utility for MPAS-Atmosphere output files

A general conversion utility for MPAS-Atmosphere output files - mgduda/convert_mpas

github.com

Then follow the instruction to compile and run the code.

Let us know if you have any issues during the process.

Actually, what I want to know is, is there any way by which we can directly convert the "mpas" outputs to a regular lat_lon grid without using convert_mpas?

 

[Ming Chen]

The output of MPAS is on its native mesh. At present we don't have the capability to directly output data on regular lat-on grids.

ok, thanks for the clarification.
