---++ Standard Post-Processing

CDO is a very useful tool for postprocessing SOCOL output, e.g. for calculating averages, interpolation to pressure levels, selection of variables, time steps, etc.: https://code.mpimet.mpg.de/projects/cdo/
   * cdo is already installed on the IAC Linux system and can be loaded by =module load cdo=

The classical post processor for ECHAM data is the "afterburner" which provides the following operations:
   * Extract specified variables and levels
   * Compute derived variables
   * Transform spectral data to Gaussian grid representation
   * Vertical interpolation to pressure levels or height
   * Write data in =GRIB=, =NetCDF=, =SERVICE= or =EXTRA= format
   * User manual: [[%ATTACHURL%/afterburner.txt][afterburner.txt]]
   * Afterburner source code and Makefile: [[%ATTACHURL%/after.tar][after.tar]]
   * %X% The cdo command _after_ does the same as the afterburner, and is easier to use!!!

---++ Calculation of Residual Circulation and EP-fluxes
The calculation of the residual circulation and the EP-fluxes follow Andrews (1987): [[%ATTACHURL%/Andrews_1987_p127ff.pdf]]

---+++ Required Input
   * daily mean or 6 hrly (better) instantaneous 3D T [K], u [m/s], v [m/s], omega [Pa/s] on pressure levels [Pa]
   * %X% ATTENTION: the namelist setting =PUTDATA   = 24, 'hours', 'first', 0= outputs *instantaneous values every 24 hours, not daily averages*!!! That leads to artefacts in the calculated TEM in the mesosphere. If you intend to calculate the residual circulation from your model output, set =PUTDATA   = 12, 'hours', 'first', 0= or better =PUTDATA   = 6, 'hours', 'first', 0=
   * cdo script for preparing input data for epf routine from model output: [[%ATTACHURL%/make_epf_vars_netcdf.sh]]

---+++ EPF-Routines
   * Using a temperature-dependent density: [[%ATTACHURL%/epf_from_daily_v3.f90]]
   * Using a fixed scale height of _H=6950 m_ and log-pressure altitude: [[%ATTACHURL%/epf_from_daily_v4.f90]]
   * %X% _NOTE: Although CCMI recommended a fixed scale height, we used a temperature-dependent density to calculate the residual circulation and EP-fluxes from the CCMI simulations!!!_

---+++ Other Useful Scripts
   * Compiling epf routines: [[%ATTACHURL%/compile_epf_from_daily.sh]]
   * Script to postprocess several months: [[%ATTACHURL%/calc_ep-flux.csh]]

---++ CMOR (Climate Model Output Rewriter)
CMOR is a "handy" data post-processing tool originally designed to produce datasets conforming to CMIP conventions. It has since been adapted by the CCMI community for CCMI-1. CMOR stands for  Climate Model Output Rewriter.
