[Met_help] [rt.rap.ucar.edu #85572] History for MODE question

[John Halley Gotway via RT]

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

Hi,

I am interested in using the MODE Time Domain analysis tool for tracking
mesoscale convective systems (suggested to be by Andreas Prein). I would
like to use it on Cheyenne and on data I have stored there. Is there a
precompiled version available for this system? Also, for the input data,
are there any limitations on regional vs global files? I have a run that I
regridded to a regular latlon grid from an unstructured grid, but only for
CONUS. Would this be an acceptable input datset?

Thank you,
Ashley Payne

Ashley,

Information about pre-compiled version of MET, including cheyenne, can
be
found on the MET website here:
   https://dtcenter.org/met/users/downloads/existing_met_builds/index.php

However, MET isn't set up to handle unstructured grids.  It only
processes
gridded data on a regular grid, including the lat/lon, Lambert
Conformal,
Polar Stereographic, and Mercator projections.  Those grids can be
regional
or global... that shouldn't be a problem.  MET reads GRIB1/2 data well
as
well as CF-compliant NetCDF files.

Hope this helps clarify.

Thanks,
John Halley Gotway
