  Initial Request
----------------------------------------------------------------

Hello,

What grib code should I give to my ascii observation (processed by ascii2nc)
to be matched with the "cloud bottom height" produced by WRF Post processor?
The WPP gives this field a grib code of 7, but that standard grib code would
be interpreted incorredtly by ascii2nc, correct?

Thanks,
Scott

Scott,

You should use the same grib code in your ascii2nc input file that is
used in the output from the WRF post processor.
The reason is that ascii2nc just does a simple match on the grib code,
regardless of which field the grib code refers
to.  Thus, for all such observations, you should put a 7 in column 7
so that point_stat will match them.  Does that make
sense?  Please let us know if you have any more questions.

Thanks,

Paul

Hi Paul,

I still am confused on how point_stat will match variables correctly
without
a field name. WPP produces several fields with GRIB code 7 (Terrain
height,
cloud top height, cloud bottom height, height of freezing level, etc).
As
far as I know, there is no was to set a field name using ascii2nc...am
I
correct? If there was, then I could see matching variables combined
with
their respective grib codes, otherwise how does point_stat compare
there
right fields? Am I making sense? Maybe I have overlooked something in
ascii2nc. Please let me know.

Thanks,
Scott

Scott,

First of all, let me acknowledge that point_stat was not designed for
verifying fields that are not on pressure levels.
 As such, the solution to your problem may seem a little unwieldy.
Use the grib code of 7 as I previously suggested in
your ascii2nc input file to generate the obs NetCDF input to
point_stat.  I suggest you use the following approach to
modify the model grib input:

1.  Extract the record of interest from the model grib file that you
intend to verify.  Cloud height has grib code 7
(kpds5) and level type 2 (kpds6).  This can be done using the wgrib
command.  First, determine the record number that
contains the cloud bottom information, using a command similar to
this:

wgrib [model_grib_file] | grep "HGT" | grep "kpds6=2:" | cut -d':' -f1

Once you have this record number, use wgrib to extract that record
into a new grib file, using a command like this:

wgrib [model_grib_file] -o [output_grib_file] -grib -d [record_num]

2.  In the point_stat config file, use the following setting for
fcst_field:

fcst_field[] = [ "HGT/L0" ];

Run point_stat with the extracted grib file that you created in step 1
and point_stat should only match pairs with model
data that corresponds to cloud bottom.  Does this make sense?  Please
let us know if you have any questions.

Thanks,

Paul

Hi Paul,

Thanks for the method you suggested. So it appears the idea here is to
isolate both the forecast and observation fields that are desired,
then
compare them. I guess this would be the methodology behind any
comparison
field without a unique grib code. Thanks for the info, I'll give this
a try.

From: John Halley Gotway

Scott,

Hello, my name is John Halley Gotway, and I work on MET-Help support
as
well.  I just wanted to jump in here and make a quick comment.
Generally,
this type of shuffling around of GRIB records isn't necessary.

For example, in a typical WPP output file, you may have many records
that
all use the GRIB code of 7 for height (HGT).  Most of them will be
defined
on pressure levels where the value for that level is pressure value
(e.g.
500mb, 750mb, and so on).  You'd access these GRIB records in the MET
config files by saying "HGT/P500" or "HGT/P750".  The 'P' tells MET to
only look for GRIB records defined on a pressure level.

However, you're after the cloud base height.  It's level value is
actually
encoded as 0.  In the sample WPP output data we have for testing, we
saw
another HGT record with a level value of 0 - it was defined to be at
the
surface.

If you select "HGT/L0" in the MET config files (the 'L' tells MET to
not
check the type of level), it'll look through the GRIB file for any
record
that contains HGT with a level value of 0.  In our test data, since it
encountered the one for the surface first, it used that one.

So this process of using wgrib to extract the record before verifying
it
is only necessary when you have multiple GRIB records using the same
GRIB
code AND the same level value (a value of 0 in your case).  It hasn't
been
an issue for most users.  But I suppose that most users haven't been
verifying the cloud base to our knowledge.

Hope that helps clarify.

Thanks,
John

Hi John,

Thanks for the helpful explanation. This makes sense and selecting a
level
is an easier solution. In fact, table 3 in the WPP user's guide shows
a
columns grib-codes and levels, and for the most part they are unique.
It
seems the most important things to be aware of are WPP fields with
identical
grib-code and level, and also separating different observation fields
that
share the same grib-code. I will give your suggestion a try. Thanks
again
for the tips, help, and discussion.
