lagtraj - v0.1.0

First tagged version of lagtraj!

This version provides complete functionality to produce large-scale forcings for running Lagrangian (flow-following) limited area simulations (e.g. Large-Eddy Simulations or Single Column Models) to simulate convective clouds based on ECMWF ERA5 reanalysis data. Output forcings can currently target the models supporting the KPT (e.g. DALES) and DEPHY (e.g. MONC, DEPHY functionality yet on MOSRS trunk) input formats.

Features:

• calculation of large-scale forcings along a lat/lon trajectory and conversion to target specific LES models
• calculation of air-mass trajectories following either a) fixed-pressure, b) fixed-height or fixed velocity from a starting point
• automatic download of ECMWF ERA5 reanalysis data from CDSAPI (handling both data requests, download and consistency checks)
• rudimentary support for calculation of forcing profiles over land (by exclusion of fixed-height profile points which are below the surface elevation)
