Supported Datasets ================== Supported models and observations are below. Please see :ref:`Adding New Datasets ` for advice on how to add new model and observational datasets to MELODIES MONET. Supported Models ---------------- .. list-table:: Currently Connected Capabilities for Model Readers :widths: 20 20 30 30 :header-rows: 1 * - Model - Surface - Aircraft - Satellite * - `MERRA2 `_ - Yes - Needs testing - MODIS * - `WRF-Chem `_ - Yes - Yes - TEMPO, MOPITT, TROPOMI * - `CESM/CAM-chem FV `_ - Yes - Needs testing - MOPITT, MODIS, TEMPO * - `CESM/CAM-chem SE `_ - Yes - | Needs testing & to | add unstructured | grid capabilities - | Needs testing & to | add unstructured | grid capabilities * - `CMAQ `_ - Yes - Needs testing - Needs testing * - `UFS-AQM `_ - Yes - Yes - MOPITT * - `CAMx `_ - Yes - Needs testing - TEMPO, MOPITT * - `RAQMS `_ - Yes - Needs testing - MOPITT, OMPS In general, processing requires input to be in netCDF format. For the above models, scripts to configure the model data into a standard format for MELODIES MONET are available. If input datasets are in netCDF format and define latitude, longitude, pressure, and a datetime object, MELODIES MONET may be able to directly read the input files. Please refer to the `MELODIES MONET project board `__ to learn more about our current and future development plans. Supported Observations ---------------------- Surface ^^^^^^^ To use these surface datasets in MELODIES MONET specify "obs_type" equal to "pt_sfc" in your YAML file. Currently, surface data in MELODIES MONET is paired horizontally using the nearest neighbor approach and temporally with exact time matching (e.g., if model data is provided hourly and observational data is provided hourly, these will pair together). More time interpolation options will be added in the future. Available now: * `AirNow `_ - Air quality data aggregated by AirNow * `AERONET `_ - NASA AErosol RObotic NETwork * `AQS `_ - US EPA Air Quality System * `ISH and ISH-Lite `_ - NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) Global Hourly - Integrated Surface Database * `OpenAQ `_ - Global, aggregated, harmonized public air quality data hosted by OpenAQ Under Development: * `IMPROVE `_ - Interagency Monitoring of Protected Visual Environments * `CRN `_ - U.S. Climate Reference Network * `TOLNet `_ - Tropospheric Ozone Lidar Network * `CEMS `_ - Air Emission Measurement Center (EMC) Continuous Emission Monitoring System * `Pandora `_ (`Pandonia Global Network `_) Please refer to the `MELODIES MONET project board `__ under milestone "Surface and Aircraft Evaluation Version 2" to learn more about our current and future development plans. .. note:: The :doc:`/cli` can be used to download and create MELODIES MONET-ready datasets for: AirNow, AERONET, AQS, ISH, ISH-Lite, and OpenAQ. Aircraft, Sonde, Mobile, and Ground Campaign Data ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Pairing capabilities include time, horizontal, and vertical interpolation. Horizontal interpolation uses the nearest neighbor approach. Vertical interpolation uses linear interpolation and nearest neighbor for extrapolation with a warning if users are pairing points above the model top, which is not recommended. Users can evaluate aircraft data, ozonesonde data, mobile or walking data, and single ground site data. To use these options in MELODIES MONET specify "obs_type" equal to "aircraft", "sonde", "mobile", or "ground" in your YAML file. The table below describes these options in more detail. Available datafile formats include NetCDF, ICARTT, and CSV. .. list-table:: Description of YAML File Options for "obs_type" For Campaign Data :widths: 70 30 :header-rows: 1 * - "obs_type" - Description of Pairing * - "aircraft" - Aircraft - Time, horizontal, and vertical interpolation across the entire dataset. * - "sonde" - | Sonde - Vertical interpolation across the entire dataset. Time and | horizontal interpolation at a fixed release time and location. * - "mobile" - Mobile - Time and horizontal interpolation across the entire dataset at the surface. * - "ground" - | Ground - Time interpolation across the entire dataset. Horizontal interpolation | at a fixed location at the surface. Tested datasets include the following: * `FIREX-AQ `_ - Fire Influence on Regional to Global Environments and Air Quality * `ATom `_ - ATmospheric Tomography Mission * `SUNVEx `_ - Southwest Urban NOx and VOC Experiment * `AEROMMA `_ - Atmospheric Emissions and Reactions Observed from Megacities to Marine Areas * `ASIA-AQ `_ - Airborne and Satellite Investigation of Asian Air Quality * `GML ozonesondes `_ - NOAA Global Monitoring Laboratory (GML) ozonesondes MELODIES MONET is written generally enough that other field campaign datasets should work well in the tool with minimal adjustments.
