A python toolset that evaluates land-model output (a la ALM/CLM) for regression testing
The acre_driver.py script is intended to diagnose the output of several single site runs, as a rapid visual and textual analysis on ecosystem response over a period of 5 - 50 years. As a default, the user must provide the file-path to restart files. As a default, plotting is turned off.
The acre_gridcomp.py script is intended to diagnose the output of gridded CLM/ELM/FATES simulations, for rapid visualization.
Options for both include:
- the ability to do a regression against another set of files (base).
- analysis of history files (which have a 1-hour suggested output) (NOT
acre_gridcomp.py?) - plotting (most of the analysis right now is visual, not much really happens right now without plotting)
- add more restart output diagnostics
- come up with a list of PASS/FAIL diagnostics
- h1,h2,h3 files
- add more checks
- optimize math and averaging
UNcomment the imported "code" library and add the following call in the code where you want to add a debug stop: code.interact(local=locals())
For usage: python acre_driver.py -h
python acre_driver.py --plotmode --test-hist-pref=<fullpath> --base-hist-pref=<fullpath> --test-name=<test> --base-name=<text> --eval-id=<id-string>
