I would like to use the French AROME and ARPEGE models in addition to the ECMWF European model for HYSPLIT.
I already have a bash routine that allows me to convert ECMWF data to ARL format using the api2arl_v3 function. You will find the corresponding .cfg files attached.
Unfortunately, the conversion does not work correctly for the AROME and ARPEGE models.
Here are the issues I am encountering:
For both models, when I attempt to convert the GRIB2 files to ARL using api2arl_v3, I receive the following error message:
- error of api2arl_v3
I tried to provide the most accurate possible temporal fields (a single GRIB2 file corresponding to a precise hour), and even forced the reference time to ensure that all variables share the same timestamp, but the error persists.
I am not sure where this issue comes from, since the GRIB2 files from AROME and ARPEGE appear very similar to those from ECMWF.
I am attaching the .cfg files for both models.
I also attempted to convert the ARPEGE model using the api2arl_v2 function.
In this case, the conversion completes successfully, and the ARL file is recognized by HYSPLIT.
However, when I run a test simulation, I notice that there is no dispersion at all, even though I am able to view the various fields with the HYSPLIT viewer.
I put all the configuration files into a single text file.
Best regards,
