I am trying to link some emissions rates [g/h] as inputs of hysplit. I found 2 possible ways:
1- Through EMITIMES, defining several blocks per hour:
And following the documentation, I found that seems possible to use PARINIT file to feed the model, which seems quite straight-forward but the file is binary and I do not found any ASCII format + conversor to reach that solution. Does anyone know any way to create this file based on external data using python or similar?YYYY MM DD HH DURATION(hhhh) #RECORDS
YYYY MM DD HH MM DURATION(hhmm) LAT LON HGT(m) RATE(/h) AREA(m2) HEAT(w)
