Idealized Cases

Hello,

I am hoping to find some more information about each the hill2d idealized test case. I am looking at modeling snow over a mountain in thi test case, I know i can change the mountain height in the fortran module under the hill2d case, but i do not exactly know how to visualize the results produced to see this mountain.

Thanks for your help.
 
Hi,
Apologies for the delay. To see the results, after modifying the code, you would probably need to run a quick test by running ideal and wrf, then viewing the output using something like ncview, which is a way to quickly visualize the content in netCDF files. When you run wrf, just set the simulation to run for a couple of minutes, and make sure to set the output to write within that time period. You can keep doing this until you're satisfied with the modifications you've made.
 
Thanks for your response, i will try that.
Also, i want to confirm with you, if the hill2d case can be used to model snow, and if Yes, can do you have any resources that can help.

Thanks
 
I'm not aware of anyone who has done that before, but that doesn't mean it's not possible. You may be able to do a web search to determine if anyone has tried, and the outcome.
