MWRpy

MWRpy tests PyPI version DOI paper

MWRpy is a Python software to process RPG Microwave Radiometer data and is developed at the University of Cologne, Germany as part of the Aerosol, Clouds and Trace Gases Research Infrastructure (ACTRIS).

The software features reading raw data, Level 1 quality control, generation of Level 2 data products and visualization and is based on the IDL code mwr_pro.

The netCDF data format including metadata information, variable names and file naming is designed to be compliant with the data structure and naming convention developed in the EUMETNET Profiling Programme E-PROFILE.

Installation

From PyPI:

shell python3 -m pip install mwrpy

From GitHub:

shell git clone https://github.com/actris-cloudnet/mwrpy.git cd mwrpy python3 -m venv venv source venv/bin/activate pip3 install --upgrade pip pip3 install .

MWRpy requires Python 3.10 or newer.

Configuration

The folder mwrpy/site_config/ contains configuration files for each instrument type, which defines the input and output data paths etc. For example, this is the configuration file for RPG-HATPRO.

The folders for each site, e.g. mwrpy/site_config/hyytiala/, contain a site and instrument specific configuration file (config.yaml) and retrieval coefficients. For example, this is the configuration file for Hyytiälä.

Command line usage

MWRpy can be run using the command line tool mwrpy/cli.py:

usage: mwrpy/cli.py [-h] -s SITE [-d YYYY-MM-DD] [--start YYYY-MM-DD]
                       [--stop YYYY-MM-DD] [-p ...] [{process,plot}]

Arguments:

| Short | Long | Default | Description | | :---- | :----------- | :------------------ | :--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | -h | --help | | Show help and exit. | | -s | --site | | Site to process data from, e.g, hyytiala. Required. | | -d | --date | | Single date to be processed. Alternatively, --start and --stop can be defined. | | | --start | current day - 1 | Starting date. | | | --stop | current day | Stopping date. | | -p | --products | 1C01, single, multi | Processed products, e.g, 1C01, 2I02, 2P03, single, see below. |

Commands:

| Command | Description | | :---------- | :--------------------------------------------------------- | | process | Process data and generate plots (default). | | plot | Only generate plots. | | no-plot | Only generate products. | | reprocess | Like process, but skips days when data processing fails. |

Data types

Level 1

  • 1B01: MWR brightness temperatures from .BRT and .BLB/.BLS files + retrieved spectrum
  • 1B11: IR brightness temperatures from .IRT files
  • 1B21: Weather station data from .MET files
  • 1C01: Combined data type with time corresponding to 1B01

Level 2

  • 2I01: Liquid water path (LWP)
  • 2I02: Integrated water vapor (IWV)
  • 2I06: Stability Indices
  • 2P01: Temperature profiles from single-pointing observations
  • 2P02: Temperature profiles from multiple-pointing observations
  • 2P03: Absolute humidity profiles
  • 2P04: Relative humidity profiles (derived from 2P01/2P02 + 2P03)
  • 2P07: Potential temperature (derived from 2P01/2P02 + 2P03)
  • 2P08: Equivalent potential temperature (derived from 2P01/2P02 + 2P03)
  • single: Single pointing data product (including 2I01, 2I02, 2I06, 2P01, 2P03, and derived products)
  • multi: Multiple pointing data product (including 2P02, and derived products)
