TYPE: enhancement, text only

KEYWORDS: WRFDA, VARBC.in, radiance_info, metop-c

SOURCE: Jamie Bresch (NCAR)

DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES:

Add metop-c-amsua and metop-c-mhs to VARBC.in and radiance info files to allow the assimilation of metop-c radiances.
The satellite ID for metop-c is already coded in WRFDA, so no changes in the code is needed.
The number of sensors in VARBC.in is increased by 3 instead of 2, because the previous commit to VARBC.in
(637ecb7) did not advance the counter.

A note: metop-a has been decommissioned in Nov 2021.

LIST OF MODIFIED FILES:
M var/run/VARBC.in
A var/run/radiance_info/metop-3-amsua.info
A var/run/radiance_info/metop-3-mhs.info

TESTS CONDUCTED:

  1. tested in offline VARBC runs and got output for metop-c.

RELEASE NOTE: N/A (minor)
