-First version of MICOM diagnostic package is available on grunch/norstore/hexagon/vilje. Please find more details  {{:noresm:detelinaivanova_noresm_diagnostics_rg1_032515.pdf|here}}. 
- 
-===== SVN Repository for NorESM Diagnostic Packages  ===== 
- 
-(NEW 2015.04.23) 
- 
-The NorESM Diagnostic Packages can be downloaded via svn using the command:  
-  svn export svn://noresg.norstore.no/NoresmDiagnosticPackages 
- 
- 
- 
-A web-viewer is available at [[https://webserver1.norstore.uio.no:8443/websvn/wsvn/NORESG-diagpacks]] (user: guestuser, passw: friendly). 
- 
-====== Aerosol and Chemistry, Clouds and Forcing Diagnostics ====== 
- 
- 
-In both the default CAM5-aerosol packages (MAM3,MAM7) and the Oslo-aerosol packages, the budget terms can be taken out using a variable in the namelist :  
- 
-===Configuring a run with more aerosol diagnostics in (NorESM2) === 
- 
-<file> 
-&phys_ctl_nl 
-history_aerosol = .true. 
-/ 
-</file> 
- 
-Two more diagnostics are useful: 
-  * Enable estimates multiple calls to radiation which are necessary for effective radiative forcing estimates 
-  * Enable diagnostics for AEROCOM 
- 
- 
-To enable this, take the file cam/src/physics/cam_oslo$ vim preprocessorDefinitions.h and copy it to your SourceMods/src.cam folder 
- 
-Change both preprocessor definitions to true 
- 
-<file> 
-#define AEROCOM 
-#define AEROFFL 
-</file> 
- 
-The AEROCOM-token turns on diagnostics needed for AEROCOM 
-The AEROFFL-token tells the model to do additional radiation-diagnostics for aerosol indirect effect 
- 
-===== Tracer Budget terms =====  
- 
-===Fields produced in monthly average files when running with budgets activated=== 
- 
-Running with budgets activated will produce the following terms in the monthly output files:  
- 
-^ Output variable name    ^ Meaning                      ^ Comment               ^ 
-| SF{Tracer}              | Emissions from surface                             | 
-| GS_{Tracer}             | gas phase chemistry          | 3D-emissions and gas phase washout included in this term |  
-| AQ_{Tracer}             | aquous chemistry                                                                      | 
-| {Tracer}_Mixnuc1        | Activation in clouds and evaporation of cloud droplets |                                |  
-| {Tracer}_DDF            | Dry deposition flux (aerosol tracers)                  |                                | 
-| {Tracer}_SFWET          | Wet deposition flux (aerosol tracers)                  |                                | 
-| {Tracer}_condtend       | loss/production in condensation/nuclation              | (CAM-Oslo only)                | 
-| {Tracer}_coagTend       | loss/production in coagulation                         | (CAM-Oslo only)                | 
-| DF_{Tracer}             | dry deposition flux (gas tracers)                      | output with history_aerosol with CAM-Oslo only| 
-| WD_A_{Tracer}           | wet deposititon flux (gas tracers)                     | output with history_aerosol with CAM-Oslo only| 
-| {Tracer}_CLXF           | 3D-emissions ("external forcing"                     | output with history_aerosol with CAM-Oslo only| 
-| {Tracer}_clcoagTend     | loss of tracer due to coagulation with cloud droplets  | output with history_aerosol with CAM-Oslo only| 
- 
-Note: Since 3D-emissions and and gas washout rates are included in the term GS_{Tracer} in the mozart chemistry solver, the individual terms can be found like this (example for SO2):  
-<file> 
-ncap2 -O -s GS_ONLY_SO2=GS_SO2-WD_A_SO2-SO2_CLXF infile.nc outfile.nc 
-</file> 
- 
-More info on SO2 budgets (see /models/atm/cam/tools/diagnostics/ncl/ModIvsModII/ for scripts with info on all tracers):  
- 
-GS_SO2 contains the SO2 budget terms for all that goes on in the chemistry-routine, which is \\ 
-1) Gas phase chemistry, 2) Wet deposition, and 3) 3D-emissions.\\ 
-Gas phase chemistry is both production from DMS (GS_DMS) and loss through OH (GL_OH) \\ 
-For calculations of net loss, e.g. used to calculate SO2 life-times, we're interested in the \\ 
-loss through OH from the chemistry-term (GL_OH).\\ 
-GS_SO2 = GL_OH + SO2_CLXF - WD_A_SO2 - GS_DMS*64/62 \\ 
-or \\ 
-GL_OH = GS_SO2 - SO2_CLXF + WD_A_SO2 + GS_DMS*64/62 \\ 
- 
-Estimating chemical loss w.r.t. S (instead of SO2 or DMS), for comparison with CAM4-Oslo numbers:\\ 
-net chemial loss gas phase = (GS_SO2/1.998 - SO2_CLXF + WD_A_SO2)/1.998  + GS_DMS/1.938 \\ 
-net chemical loss = net chemial loss gas phase + AQ_SO2/1.998 \\ 
- 
-Finally, total net loss (used to calculate life-time = -load/(net loss), where load = cb_SO2/1.998):\\ 
-net loss = \\ 
-- WD_A_SO2/1.998    ;wet deposition in kg/m2/sec (positive in output file) \\ 
-- DF_SO2/1.998      ;dry deposition in kg/m2/sec (positive in output file) \\ 
-+ AQ_SO2/1.998      ;wet phase production of SO4 in kg/m2/ses (negative in output file) \\ 
-+ (GS_SO2 - SO2_CLXF + WD_A_SO2)/1.998 + GS_DMS/1.938  ; net chemical loss gas phase \\ 
- 
-===Looking at the aerosol budgets (CAM-Oslo only) === 
- 
-  * Go to the directory models/atm/cam/tools/diagnostics/ncl/budgets 
-  * Change the filename to use in the file budgets.ncl ("myFileName" around line 18). Should be for example yearly average of month-avg file in a run with budgets 
-  * Run the script budgets.sh to create a pdf-file (output.pdf) 
- 
- 
-===== NCL Model Version Comparison package (Alf K) ====== 
- 
-===Making ncl plots of often used aerosol and cloud fields, including ERFs, for two model versions (CAM-Oslo only) === 
- 
-  * Make a local copy (on Linux) of the directory models/atm/cam/tools/diagnostics/ncl/ModIvsModII 
-  * Assuming that you have produced output data from 4 simulations: two different model versions, each with PD and PI emissions, and all run with #define AEROCOM & AEROFFL:    
-  * In ModIvsModII.csh (note: read the header info): 
-  * - edit model info for the first model (shown to the left in the plots): modelI = CAM4-Oslo or modelI = CAM5-Oslo ? 
-  * - provide paths and partial file names of the model data (PD and PI) for Model I (CAM4-Oslo or CAM5-Oslo) and Model II (must be CAM5-Oslo) 
-  * - choose desired plot format (plotf=ps, eps, pdf or png) 
-  * Run the script: ./ModIvsModII.csh 
-  * Furthermore, to display the plots in an organized form by use of a web browser (only possible if the chosen plot format is png):     
-  * - download htm template files from ftp://ftp.met.no/projects/noresmatm/upload/NorESM2Diagnostics/ModIvsModII/htm-templates/ 
-  * - edit general model info (only) in ModIvsModII.htm, and manually cut and paste the mass budget numbers from the script output into this file  
-  * - copy all png (plots) and htm files to the desired output (common) directory 
-  * - open ModIvsModII.htm in your browser: hyper-links to all other htm files, including plots, are found here 
-  * Example: ftp://ftp.met.no/projects/noresmatm/upload/NorESM2Diagnostics/ModIvsModII/revision610inclSOA-Nudged_1984-12to1985-11_vs_CAM4-Oslo/ModIvsModII.htm 
- 
-===== Cloud water mass and number analysis (budgets) ====== 
- 
- 
-===Configuring a run with more cloud diagnostics in NorESM2 === 
- 
-To switch on extra output for cloud diagnostics (mass and number tendencies for liquid water and mass) change the following namelist variable: 
- 
-<file> 
-&phys_ctl_nl 
-history_budget = .true. 
-/ 
-</file> 
- 
-A python script for plotting the mass and number budgets for the cloud microphysics can be found under: 
- 
-models/atm/cam/tools/diagnostics/ncl/cloudBudgets  
- 
-in the same branch. Copy the script to your local computer or lustre and edit the script to read the correct input file(s) (instructions inside the script). Run the script by typing: 
- 
-<file> 
-python scriptname.py 
-</file> 
- 
-in your terminal. 
- 
-===== Automatic AEROCOM analysis ===== 
- 
-To prepare output so that it is processed automatically by the aerocom tools, use the script located at **models/atm/cam/tools/aerocom/** in the svn repository. The script prepares files such that the idl aerocom tools prepare plots for the aerocom webinterface: 
-[[http://aerocom.met.no/cgi-bin/aerocom/surfobs_annualrs.pl?PROJECT=NorESM&MODELLIST=NorESM-development&FULL=explicit&INFO=nohover&PERFORMANCE=ind&YEARFILTER=ALLYEARS&PSFILTER=ALLVARS&Type0=ZONALOBS&Ref0=AERONETSun&Run0=CAM53-Oslo_r773bNudge_151215AG_PD_DMS_733b&Parameter0=OD550_AER&Station0=WORLD&Year0=an9999&Period0=mALLYEAR | URL link to NorESM on AeroCom webinterface]] 
- 
-The script requires <ModelName>_<ExperimentName> and <Period> as input. 
- 
-<Period>: for a climatological average and run choose 9999 , for nudged simulations choose the year of the meteorology 
- 
-<ModelName>_<ExperimentName>: is the dataset identifier under which the plots appear on the AeroCom webinterface \\  
-in the required format  
-**NorESM-CAM5_svn{RevisionNumber}_YYMMDD{initials}_Freetext**. \\ 
- 
-Example:  
-"**NorESM-CAM5_svn1094_151201AG_CMIP6endelig**" \\ 
-Initials AG: Alf Grini, AK: Alf Kirkevåg, DO: Dirk Olivie... 
- 
-Where the date YYMMDD corresponds to the time when the  AeroCom data preparation script has been executed.  
- 
-The script creates files named like 
- 
-“aerocom3_<ModelName>_<ExperimentName>_<VariableName>_<VerticalCoordinateType>_<Period>_<Frequency>.nc” 
- 
-<ModelName> ⇒ eg NorESM-CAM53 \\ 
-<ExperimentName> ⇒ svn{RevisionNumber}_YYMMDD{initials}_Freetext \\ 
-<VariableName> ⇒ aerocom variable names \\ 
-<VerticalCoordinateType> ⇒ “Surface”, “Column”, “ModelLevel”, “SurfaceAtStations”, “ModelLevelAtStations” \\ 
-<Period> ⇒ eg “2008”, “2010”, "9999" \\ 
-<Frequency> ⇒ “timeinvariant”,”hourly”, “daily”, “monthly”, “sat1000”, “sat1330”, “sat2200”, “sat0130” \\ 
- 
-Note that VerticalCoordinateType is dependent on the variable!! It is not a question about "vertical coordinate type used in model simulations"! 
- 
-The script copies files on norstore into 
-**/projects/NS2345K/CAM-Oslo/DO_AEROCOM/<ModelName>_<ExperimentName>/renamed/**
