Tutorials

The following tutorials describe how to setup the wavy config files, to retrieve satellite and insitu data, to perform collocation and validation tasks. wavy is intended to be fleksibel such that customization can be achieved with minimal changes in the code. The wavy config files build the fundament for this approach and serve a similar purpose as namelist files often used for runtime changes in numerical modelling.

In general, executable files usually have help function which can be read using e.g.:

$ ./{Executable}.py -h

e.g.:

$ cd ~/wavy/apps/standalone
$ ./wavyDownload.py -h

• Setting up a project and wavy config files
• Use satellite data
• Use multiple satellite missions
• Define regions of interest
