Readme Written by: A. Krautkramer 12/2/2002 ---Programs - program: read_adeck.sh - read the A deck and find active storms - executable: read_adeck.sh - language: shell script - written: John Knaff CIRA/CSU/RAMM - usage: read_adeck.sh - included libraries: none - input: none - output: COORDINATES file POSITIONS file - called by: command line - calls: rcarq1 - read the A deck and find active storms read_COORDINATES - - program: rcarq1.f - purpose: This program reads ATCF A deck formatted records and searches for storms. If the program finds 0 and -12 CARQ positions for the same storm then it calculates the julian day of the storm and outputs the pertainent storm information. A storm can be uniquely identified by the storm basin and storm number. - executable: rcarq1 - language: f77 - written: John Knaff CIRA/CSU/RAMM - included libraries: none - input: none - output: COORDINATES file - program: read_COORDINATES.f - purpose: This program reads information from the COORDINATES file and outputs the file dumpjb.in_##. This information will be used to sectorize the amsu data and create the IBM job dumpjb_SAT1B.sh_cira. - executable: read_COORDINATES - language: f77 - written: Jack Dostalek CIRA - included libraries: none - input: COORDINATES file - output: dumpjb.in_## ---Purpose--- Queries the computer system for the date/time and converts the time into ---Format--- - COORDINATES FILE Example 01 20030324 200308312 22.4 -44.9 21.7 -43.2 295 009 025 al0703 INVEST 20030324 - Date of the storm in YYYYMMDD 200308312 - Date of the storm in YYYYJJJHH 22.4 - Storm lat (Adeck CARQ 0hr) -44.9 - Storm lon (Adeck CARQ 0hr) 21.7 - Storm lat -12 hour (Adeck CARQ -12hour) -43.2 - Storm lon -12 hour (Adeck CARQ -12hour) 295 - Storm Direction (Adeck CARQ 0hr) 009 - Storm Speed in knts (Adeck CARQ 0hr) 025 - Intensity of the storm in knts (Adeck CARQ 0hr) al0703 - Storm name BB##YY INVEST - Name of the storm (Adeck CARQ 0hr) - DUMPJB.IN_01 File Example 2003032412 012032035055 al072003 2003032412 - YYYYMMDDHH of current time period 012032035055 - lat/lon window al072003 - basin storm number and YYYY
