Initial Request
----------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Met Help,
I was wondering if there is functionality to set the conv_thresh value to
more than one value while running? Does it need to be a scalar value or can
it be an array. Basically, I want to run the MET tool for various 24 hour
accumulation thresholds, such as 5 mm/24hr, 10 mm, 20, etc. I was wondering
if there was a way to streamline it this way.
Thanks,

Andrew,
Yes, in fact, there is. This functionality was added in the MET 5.2
release. Please take a look at the README file in the config
directory:
met-5.2/data/config/README
And search for "conv_radius".
In the MODE config file, conv_radius and conv_thresh may either be set
to
single values (as is shown in the default MODE config file) or to an
array
of values. Also, please read the info about the quilt option. If set
to
true, all possible permutations of radius/threshold are applied. If
false,
conv_radius and conv_thresh must have the same length and only the
exact
combinations listed are run through MODE.
Just let us know if you have additional questions.
Thanks,
John Halley Gotway

Is the conv_thresh a setting for 5 mm/24hr, 10 mm/hr? What is the
difference between conv_thresh and conv_radius?
Thanks,

The convolution radius defines, in grid squares, how much you want to
smooth the data. For example, a convolution radius of 10 would make
much
smoother objects than 2. The convolution threshold is defined in the
same
units as the data you passed to MODE. That threshold values is
applied to
the convolved (i.e. smoothed) data to defined the objects that MODE
evaluates.
For more info on this, let me point you to the MET online tutorial and
MODE:
http://www.dtcenter.org/met/users/support/online_tutorial/METv5.2/tutorial.php?name=mode&category=index
And to some in-person tutorial slides about MODE:
http://www.dtcenter.org/met/users/docs/presentations/MET_Tutorial_20150202/16_Objects_Feb15.pdf

Thanks,
John
