RBMposPro

RBMposPro is a C++ software to extract time series at individual cells, time series of grid domain, time series of individual reaches and to estimate multi-annual averages and monthly averages from RBM .Temp and and .Spat output files. The model extracts information for each of the variables recorded in .Temp file. RBMposPro output files can be easily plotted for posterior analysis.

Project structure:

• /lib: Contains RBMtools.h and RBMtools.cpp.
• /src: Contains main.cpp. This file calls files in /lib
• /plot: Contains Python scripts to plot output files. In construction 👷
• /test: Contains an example of RBMposPro.in
• makefile: Make file to compile/clean code.

To compile:

• make

To run in Linux systems:

• e.g. ./RBMposPro test/RBMposPro.in

OUTPUT DATA

The model produce the following type of files:

• lat.csv: Matrix of latitudes of the grid cells
• lon.csv: Matrix of longitudes of the grid cells
• T_0_MONTH.csv: Matrix with averages for month MONTH. Averages are estimated for completed months.
• T_0_pointN.csv: Daily time series (DATE VALUE) of the chosen variable at point N. N correspond to the row of LAT LON pair, so for example T_0_point1.csv contains the time series of the first LAT LON pair, T_0_point2.csv of the second pair and so on.
• T_0_fields.csv: Daily matrices of the chosen variable.
• T_0_YEAR.csv: Annual averages of the chosen variable for the year YEAR. This is only estimated for completed years.
