PostWRF
Visualization and postprocessing of the WRF and ERA5 data
Plot the WRF and ERA5 data, in the same simple way as you run the WRF model!
PostWRF is a bunch of interactive tools, written in NCL and Bash scripts, to visualize and post-process the WRF model outputs (as well as ERA5 and RTTOV data, to some extent).
PostWRF is useful for both the expert and less-experienced users. Students can plot the WRF and ERA5 outputs whithout struggling with coding and syntax errors. Expert users can also carry out common postprocessing tasks in a simple and straightforward way.
Main capabilities:
- WRF Data extraction
- WRF horizontal contour plot
- WRF cross-section plot
- WRF statistical diagrams
- RTTOV input (from WRF) and output data generation
- WRF data conversion to Geotiff
- WRF Skew-T and windrose diagrams
- ERA5 horizontal contour plot
- ERA5 data extraction
Sample visualizations and postprocessing
Installation:
Install NCL on a Linux machine (e.g. Fedora):
sudo dnf install ncl
That's it! Enough for most of the PostWRF's capabilities!
Run PostWRF:
git clone [email protected]:anikfal/PostWRF.git
cd PostWRF
chmod +x postwrf.sh modules/*.sh modules_era/*.sh
- Copy or link your WRF or ERA5 files in the PostWRF directory
./postwrf.sh
- Follow the instructions and give relevant information to visualize/postprocess your data
