File-Contents (in Catchwords)

steering data

• Block Program_Parameters: general steering data
  1. Max_Read_Storage: maximum number of data items read from input file during each analysis cycle.
  2. Max_Distance: maximum distance in [m] up to which points with different location are compared.
  3. (optional) Print_Modus_Classify: parameter to steer informative printout messages in program section classification:
     1. 0 = no extensive messages printed;
     2. 1 = more extensive messages about classified variables will be printed.
  4. (optional) Print_Modus_Pairs: parameter to steer informative printout messages in program section primary partner variables:
     1. 0 = no extensive messages printed;
     2. 1 = more extensive messages about detected variable pairs will be printed;
     3. 2 = also informations about rejected variable pairs will be printed.
  5. (optional) Print_Modus_Define: parameter to steer informative printout messages in program section definition of computational results:
     1. 0 = no extensive messages printed;
     2. 1 = more extensive informations with respect to metadata of computational results will be printed.
  6. (optional) Print_Modus_Compute: parameter to steer informative printout messages in program section computation of results:
     1. 0 = no extensive messages printed;
     2. 1 = more extensive messages about computational result variables will be printed.
• Block Data_Files: data files
  1. Reference_File: file (NETCDF) with reference data (filetype cf-netcdf.nc);
  2. Variant_File: file (NETCDF) with variant data (filetype cf-netcdf.nc);
  3. Result_File: file (NETCDF) for result data (filetype cf-netcdf.nc).
• (optional) Block Data_Operations: data operations
  1. (optional) With_Ordinary_Differences: compute (.true.) common differences (if possible) or do not compute (.false.);
  2. (optional) With_Taylor_Diagram_Data: compute (.true.) data for Taylor diagram (if possible) or do not compute (.false.);
  3. (optional) With_Median: compute (.true.) median (>= 32 events) or do not compute (.false.);
  4. (optional) With_Percentiles_05_95: compute (.true.) percentiles Q05, Q95 (>= 32 events) or do not compute (.false.);
  5. (optional) With_Percentiles_01_99: compute (.true.) percentiles Q01, Q99 (>= 51 events) or do not compute (.false.).
• (optional) Block Exclude_Variable_From_NCDELTA: list of variables to be excluded from computation.
  1. Variant_Variable: variable from Variant-File. Key can be prescribed several times. With exception of the variables listed here results will be computed for all primary variable pairs.
• (optional) Block Include_Only_Variable_for_NCDELTA: list of variables for which results ar exclusively computed.
  1. Variant_Variable: variable from Variant-File. Key can be prescribed several times. Results will be solely computed for the variables listed here.
