Recommended strategies
The cmorisation of a restarted experiment, for instance when a scenario experiment has been restarted from the historical run, requires some additional care:
-
Add an output/ifs/001 directory with ICM*+000000 files. You can link to the ICM*+000000 files from the previous experiment, but you have to rename the links (because of the new experiment name).
-
If your experiment starts with leg N than you have to create a new directory output/ifs/N-1 and move the first files (e.g. ICM*+201412) from output/ifs/N to output/ifs/N-1
This strategy has been suggested in #430 and is successfully tested.
For the scenario experiments in r1i1p1f1 we included the year 2100. See also discussion at ec-earth portal issue 675.
Policy:
- Publish all the data from the same experiment under the same version
- Use a version that is nearby the date of the publication.
To achieve this one can use the ece2cmor3/scripts/data-qa/scripts/versions.sh script to handle multiple versions (this script is a copy from here). Run just ./versions.sh without arguments for help.
This strategy has been suggested in #492.
Check the number of cmorised files per year with for e.g. the ece2cmor3/scripts/data-qa/scripts/files-per-year.sh script, use for instance:
./data-qa/scripts/files-per-year.sh 1850 1851 ~/l2/cmorised-results/cmor-cmip-piControl/t264/CMIP6/
A script which produces the correct Ofx sftof (see #483):
./data-qa/scripts/sftof.py CMIP6/CMIP/EC-Earth-Consortium/EC-Earth3/historical/r1i1p1f1/Ofx/sftof/gn/v20190926/sftof_Ofx_EC-Earth3_historical_r1i1p1f1_gn.nc
See also here.
Note that fx sftlf is produced directly correctly by ece2cmor3 from v1.8.0 onwards.
A script which produces the correct fx sftlf: for the AOGCM version for r1i1p1f1:
./data-qa/recipes/sftlf-AOGCM.sh
This script modifies the metadata (painful exercise), but could be of help, and uses the file constructed by Uwe.
