Description
This pull request adds a new
google-colab/directory containing four Jupyter notebooks that provide a Google Colab workflow for preparing ERA5 data and running ATMOS-BUD.The main workflow is:
The workflow is designed for cyclone-following applications using the ATMOS-BUD
-toption. The ERA5 NetCDF file and the cyclone track file must contain matching dates and time steps.Added notebooks
Access_to_Reanalysis_ERA5.ipynbDownloads and prepares the ERA5 meteorological fields required as input for ATMOS-BUD.
track_file.ipynbCreates the
track_<cyclone_name>.txtfile containing the cyclone position and analysis-domain dimensions for each time step.ATMOSBUD_Google_Colab.ipynbProvides step-by-step instructions for installing and running ATMOS-BUD on Google Colab, including the use of the
-toption for a moving domain that follows the cyclone.Synoptic_chart_Reanalysis_ERA5.ipynbProvides a complementary tool for generating synoptic charts from ERA5 reanalysis data, following the general visualization style of the synoptic maps developed by Alicia M. Bentley.
The synoptic-chart notebook is optional and is not required for the ATMOS-BUD calculations.
Documentation
A
README.mdfile was also added to thegoogle-colab/directory describing the recommended workflow, input requirements, temporal consistency between ERA5 and track files, and the purpose of each notebook.Motivation
The goal of this contribution is to provide an additional cloud-based workflow for ATMOS-BUD, making the software easier to use in teaching, training, and research environments where a local installation may not be available.
The notebooks do not modify the core ATMOS-BUD source code.
