TERRAIN Tutorial : Introduction
Program TERRAIN is the first program you need to run in the suite
of MM5 system programs.
This program lets you design your mesoscale model configuration:
- where to place your grid,
- the grid size,
- what resolution data to use to generate terrain elevation,
landuse category, and other datasets if you will be running
MM5 with the land-surface model option.
All fields generated by the Terrain program are constant fields
for the model.

Once you have obtained the output as described in "How
to Run", you have successfully completed the TERRAIN
program for the SOC case, and you are ready to move
to the REGRID program.
