REGRID Tutorial : Miscellaneous

 

  • Normally there is no need to run REGRID for more than the coarse domain. Depending on the application, the nest terrain files may be used in NESTDOWN to create nest input files for MM5 (for example, if one wants to use OSU land-surface model in MM5), or you can use nest TERRAIN files in MM5 directly. Running REGRID and RAWINS for coarse domain only will ensure data consistency in coarse/nest interface region and/or overlapping grid areas.
     
  • This example only shows you how to run the REGRID program, hence it already has the data prepared for you to run the SOC case. But before you start with your own case, you need to worry about where to obtain gridded data. Click here for more information on this topic.
     
  • If you plan on importing different gridded data into MM5, we recommend that you skip pregrid, and put the data directly in the intermediate format that regridder will accept.
