Download meteorological datasets from command line
Posted: January 25th, 2016, 7:26 am
Hi,
I'm an Hysplit newbie, up to now I downloaded meteorological datasets from the ARL ftp server using the GUI on my computer.
Now I need to download them on a cluster, without a GUI but from the linux command line.
Some questions:
1) Should I ask for a further permission to download on this cluster?
2) Is it correct to use the following ftp command to establish the connection?
ftp> open arlftp.arlhq.noaa.gov
and then using 'anonymous' as username?
and what about the password? Can I use the FTP password that I found in the GUI?
I apologize for possible trivial questions.
Thank you in advance!
