Tutorial files location

Post by wsr »

After installing Hysplit 4 (public) on a PC running Windows 10, the trajectory and concentration demos run without error. However, there is no \Tutorial directory, and it may be impossible to proceed with the tutorial if any the tutorial files are not embedded in the tutorial webpage.

Where are these files now located after installation, and where are they directly downloadable from the ARL website?

Perhaps I am missing something, but I see only the tutorial text available from your link (as well as a forbidden link). There is no repository for files actually used in the tutorials, just as there is no "\Tutorials" directory in the installation. However, the tutorial constantly references this directory as the location of files that the web tutorial actually uses. As I progressed through the tutorial, I eventually figured out that this directory is on the CD some users may have used for installation in a bygone age, but until then the tutorial was frustratingly vague.

Sorry, the link to the Tutorial download is now corrected. You should download that file which contains all the files used in the 2017 HYSPLIT workshop including the trial version of HYSPLIT used for the examples.
