For initial condition or analysis datei is equal datef (icn) and for forecast the datei is for the initial condition and datef is for the forecasting. The dates has 10 digits in the form: datei and datef = yyyymmddhh where: yyyy - four digit year (eg. 2024) ; mm - two digit month (eg. 01) dd - two digit day (eg. 26) and hh two digit UTC hour (eg. 06) for the example datei='2024012606' (datei and datef are threated as strings) The files with dates for the cases study available are: Dates_Raoni.dgs Dates_ZCAS.dgs Dates_ZCAS_mean.dgs Dates_RainRS.dgs Dates_Triplet.dgs Dates_2023.dgs Dates_2024.dgs Dates_Dry.dgs Dates_AtmLakeA.dgs Dates_AtmLakeB.dgs Dates_AtmLakeC.dgs Dates_MyCsSt.dgs Obs: 1 - The casestudy mean is for the ZCAS case of 23 January to 29 January 2024. Since the models is runned for 00 UTC only, then the (re)analysis and initial condition is considered also at 00 UTC. The mean case is the average from 23 to 29 January, 00 UTC, both for analysis and forecasting. Since the available data is for 00 UTC, for the mean it is set 12 UTC just to differ the value of the datees (yyyymmddhh). 2 - The file Dates_MyCsSt.dgs has a fake case and case study to help if you want to include a new case (MYCAS) and/or a new case study (MyCsSt). Then you must to modify the file Dates_MyCsSt.dgs with your own dates and names. If you change the names it is necessary to modify the names MYCAS and MyCsSt in the files Cases_List and CsSt_List and the directory ${dirdata}/Modal_Energetics/MYCAS_MyCsSty Inside these directory must have a file with at least zonal and meridional winds, temperature, specific humidty and geopotential height at vertical pressure levels including 1000 hPa at a format readable by GrADS. Take care you cant modify the format of the files Cases_List and CsSt_List because there were used by GrADS scripts and korn shell scripts and these format work for both.
