Files with the dates for the selected cases study (csst):
they have names like Dates_csst.dgs and the layout is such that
the first record contain the number (nrec) of the following records 
which has a number (epoca, from 1 to nrec), the datei and the datef.
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.
