How does the time of arrival graph get its data? Is this data available to be included in the .txt file that is converted from the .bin file? I am interested in the time of arrival of particles at a specific location, but I have 13 years of HYSPLIT runs, so it's not feasible to look at the graph to ...

I am using an EMITIMES file to determine smoke plume dispersion from a wildfire. I'm definitely overthinking this, but I had a few questions on what the value should be for burned area. - Since the emissions are per hour, should burned area also be per hour, or should it be per day, or for the whole...

I am running into issues when using a slurm script to submit multiple HYSPLIT concentration runs simultaneously. I have a script written to submit 10 different concentration runs for 10 different time periods to the compute node of the supercomputer. When I submit the group of files, I get various e...

I have figured out what I was missing, and the updated version of HYSPLIT has solved my problem. Thanks for the help.

Thank you for the info. I have downloaded the precompiled HYSPLIT version 5.2.3, but I am still running into the same issue using ascii2shp, both when I use .bin files from the previous version of HYSPLIT I had installed and from the new version of HYSPLIT. Is there something I'm still missing?

Hi there! I have encountered an issue when outputting GIS files from a HYSPLIT run. My HYSPLIT run contains 272 time periods, but only 99 GIS files will save as individual files and the rest of the time periods end up continuously overwriting a file named 'GIS_0500_ps_**'. If I change the concplot s...

Thanks for the response. Apologies for the mixed-up files! I have attached the correct two images and the second EMITIMES file. The first EMITIMES you noted is correct. The second EMITIMES file looks like this: YYYY MM DD HH DURATION(hhhh) RECORDS YYYY MM DD HH MM DURATION(hhmm) LAT LON HGT(m) RATE(...

Hello! I am working on simulating fire smoke transport, and I noticed that when I included more than one 24-hour emissions record, the result for the first 24 hours changed. It doesn't change significantly, but it does change a bit. I have included the two EMITIMES files I am using, as well as the c...

Thank you!

Hi there! I have recently installed HYSPLIT v5.1.0 for CentOS, and I am running through the tutorial using the bash scripts included in the Tutorial zip file. I have noticed some differences between my results and the results shown in the tutorial, though I am using the tutorial version that matches...
