    104104\paragraph{Inputs/outputs} Large-Eddy Simulations need four input files \ttt{input\_coord}, \ttt{input\_sounding}, \ttt{input\_more}, \ttt{input\_therm} which define initial pressure, temperature, density, winds profiles at the location/season for which simulations are run, along with information about this location/season. Typical files are available upon request, or you might simply build your own profiles using the Mars Climate Database (see the sample \ttt{scilab} script \ttt{wrf\_sounding.sci} in \ttt{\$MMM/SIMU/RUN}). Examples for \ttt{input\_*} files are provided in \ttt{\$MMM/SRC/LES/modif\_mars/DEF} and correspond to the cases run in the study by \textit{Spiga et al.} [2010].

     133\sk
     134Using the most recent physical parameterizations means using a version of the LMD Martian Mesoscale Model that is still under development (thus experimental). It is therefore recommended to contact developers to run simulations in this mode.

    141 %% si z0 n est pas dans le wrfinput on prend la valeur par defaut
     136\sk
     137For advanced users who learnt with the LMD team how to use the new physical parameterizations, here are a few differences with the physical parameterizations natively provided with the LMD Martian Mesoscale Model that must be kept in mind
     138\begin{finger}
     139\item a folder \ttt{LMDZ\_MARS} containing the latest sources of the Mars LMD GCM must be located in the same repository which contains \ttt{MESOSCALE} (easy to do with SVN)
     140\item GCM runs used to produce initial and boundary conditions for the mesoscale model must be done in \ttt{MESOSCALE/LMDZ.MARS.new}
     141\item \ttt{makemeso} must be used with option \ttt{-p}
     142\item the \ttt{callphys.def} file is different
     143\item modifying the \ttt{datafile.h} is not necessary anymore, this can be done in \ttt{callphys.def}
     144\item an additional \ttt{run.def} file is needed
     145\item the number of scatterers must be given when compiling, standard simulation uses 1 scatterer (2 is used for radiatively active water ice clouds)
     146\item in \ttt{namelist.input}, the soil model must set to 18 levels
     147\item additional \ttt{mars} modes can be accessed (e.g. for interactive dust or the radiative effect of clouds)
     148\item if \ttt{init\_TI} is modified, \ttt{real.exe} must be run again (because of subsurface modeling)
     149\item a varying map for surface roughness~$z_0$ can be used -- or a constant value can be set with \ttt{init\_Z0} in \ttt{namelist.input} (if there is a problem, the old reference of 1cm is chosen)
     150\item (versions later than late 2013) the model does not need to be recompiled if the number of tracers is changed
     151\item (experimental) cases with tracers and water cycle should use \ttt{diff\_6th\_opt = 0} for better stability

    122 You are asked a few questions by the \ttt{makemeso} script (see the list below) then it compiles the model for you. The script outputs a text file named \ttt{last} in which your answers to the questions are stored, which allows you to re-run the script without the ``questions to the user" step through the \ttt{makemeso < last} command line. In what follows, the answers given in brackets are the ones you want to use so that you will be able to run the test case proposed in the next section.

     138The answers given in brackets above are the ones you want to use so that you will be able to run the test case proposed in the next section. Otherwise, before proceeding with \ttt{makemeso}, it is good to get used to gather the following information
     139\begin{itemize}
     140\item On which machine do you want to run the model? (a good practice is to compile on the same machine as the one used to run the model).
     141\item What is the horizontal resolution you want for your simulation? How many domains? How many tracers?
     142\item If parallel computations are employed: Do you have parallel librairies installed on the machine you chose? How much processors you want to use?
     143\end{itemize}
     144
    137145\mk
    138146A key question that often arises when using the LMD Martian Mesoscale Model is: when does the model has to be recompiled? The set of questions asked by~\ttt{makemeso} give some hints about this. Suppose you compiled a version of the model for a given set of parameters $1$ to $6$ to run a specific compilation. If you would like to run another simulation with at least one of parameters $1$ to $6$ subject to change, the model needs to be recompiled\footnote{This necessary recompilation each time the number of grid points, tracers and domains is modified is imposed by the LMD physics code. The WRF dynamical core alone is more flexible.} with \ttt{makemeso} (cf. also chapter~\ref{zeparam}).

    140148\mk
    141 Note that the \ttt{makemeso -h} command lists the various options that can be used in the \ttt{makemeso} script. Most options should be used only by advanced users and some of them will be described in the following chapters. At this stage, the only option of \ttt{makemeso} which can be useful to you is \ttt{-f} which forces the model to be recompiled from scratch. If you already compiled the model succesfully, but the model fails to compile a few days later for reasons unrelated to your operations on your system or on the model file, we recommend you to use the \ttt{-f} option in \ttt{makemeso} to try to recompile the model\footnote{A more extreme solution if \ttt{makemeso -f} does not solve your problem is to remove the corresponding \ttt{your\_compdir} directory. See chapter~\ref{faq}}.

At this stage, the only option of \ttt{makemeso} which can be useful to you is \ttt{-f} which forces the model to be recompiled from scratch (this is for instance very useful if a previous compilation ran into problems, or was interrupted by the user).

    57 \subsection{General remarks}
     57%This section does not replace the need for you to develop your own plotting tools to suit your needs, which should be not too difficult.
     58The model outputs, as well as the results of \ttt{api} interpolations, are written using the netCDF format which can be read by most software with graphical capabilities. For a quick inspection of model results (especially for checking model outputs while the model is running), we recommend using \ttt{ncview}; for simple manipulations of netCDF files (e.g. concatenation, difference, extraction, \ldots), we recommend using commands from the \ttt{nco} package (see chapter~\ref{install} for website links). Graphical routines based on \ttt{idl}, \ttt{ferret} and \ttt{grads} can be made available upon request (as is, i.e. undocumented yet commented scripts). Successful reading/plotting of the LMD Martian Mesoscale Model outputs on \ttt{matlab}, \ttt{octave}, \ttt{idv} are also reported. It is possible to import the model's outputs to Geographical Information System (GIS) such as \ttt{arcgis}\footnote{\ttt{idl}, \ttt{matlab} and \ttt{arcgis} are neither open-source nor free.}. Since 2012, we developped our own tool named \ttt{PLANETOPLOT} based on \ttt{Python}. More information can be found here: \url{http://www.lmd.jussieu.fr/~aslmd/planetoplot}.

    63 \subsection{Python scripts}
    64 
    65 \sk
    66 Powerful scripts based on \ttt{python+numpy+matplotlib} have been developed to obtain plots from the mesoscale model outputs. All figures in this user manual are based on the script \ttt{pp.py}. This script can be obtained with the commands: \ttt{cd \$MESO ; cd .. ; svn update UTIL ; cd UTIL/PYTHON}. It is required that \ttt{python} and numerical/graphical librairies (\ttt{numpy}, \ttt{scipy}, \ttt{matplotlib}, \ttt{basemap}, \ttt{netcdf}) are installed on your system. Perhaps the simplest way to do so is to install the user-friendly complete python distribution \ttt{epd} (cf. link in chapter~\ref{install} and readme file \ttt{UTIL/PYTHON/README.INSTALL}).
    67 
    68 \sk
    69 One of the advantages of an approach using \ttt{python}, apart from its open-source philosophy and the abundant online documentation, is that it allows, in a common framework, for scripting with various options, integrating Fortran routines, manipulating arrays, making plots with various map projections. This is exemplified by the \ttt{pp.py} script. It can both perform interpolation with \ttt{api} for the level requested by the user then generate a map, all that in one simple command line. For instance, Figures~\ref{arsia} in chapter~\ref{compile} has been generated by the following two commands\footnote{The first plot can also be obtained by the command \ttt{domain.py -f name\_of\_file}}:
    70 
    71 \begin{verbatim}
    72 pp.py -f wrfout_d01_2024-01-17_02:00:00 -p ortho -b vishires --title ""
    73 pp.py -f wrfout_d01_2024-01-17_02:00:00 -i 4 -l 0.01 -v HGT -W -s 2 \
    74       --time 1 --axtime lt -m -1500. -M 20000. --div 20 -c nobar -z 25
    75 \end{verbatim}
    76 
    77 \sk
    78 Many options are implemented in our \ttt{pp.py} script. The information on the existing options to~\ttt{pp.py} can be obtained by typing \ttt{pp.py -h} (cf. next page). Examples on how to use the \ttt{pp.py} script can be found in \ttt{UTIL/PYTHON/README.PP}. The script can also be edited to suit your needs if the desired option does not exist.
    79 
    80 \begin{finger}
    81 \item Please ensure that you have the rights to execute \ttt{pp.py} (otherwise use the \ttt{chmod} command). It is also necessary to set the following environment variables to ensure the command \ttt{pp.py} would execute in any working directory
    82 \begin{verbatim}
    83 PYTHONPATH=$MESO/../UTIL/PYTHON/
    84 export PYTHONPATH
    85 PATH=$PYTHONPATH:$PATH
    86 \end{verbatim}
    87 \item The option \ttt{-i} in \ttt{pp.py} make use of the Fortran routines \ttt{api.F90} and \ttt{time.F}. The routines have to be converted to \ttt{python} commands using \ttt{f2py}. Please execute the script amongst \ttt{api\_g95.sh}, \ttt{api\_ifort.sh}, \ttt{api\_pgf90.sh} which corresponds to the Fortran compiler installed on your system. Check for errors/warnings in the log files and ensure that the two files \ttt{api.so} and \ttt{timestuff.so} are generated.

     64%Powerful scripts based on \ttt{python+numpy+matplotlib} have been developed to obtain plots from the mesoscale model outputs. All figures in this user manual are based on the script \ttt{pp.py}. This script can be obtained with the commands: \ttt{cd \$MESO ; cd .. ; svn update UTIL ; cd UTIL/PYTHON}. It is required that \ttt{python} and numerical/graphical librairies (\ttt{numpy}, \ttt{scipy}, \ttt{matplotlib}, \ttt{basemap}, \ttt{netcdf}) are installed on your system. Perhaps the simplest way to do so is to install the user-friendly complete python distribution \ttt{epd} (cf. link in chapter~\ref{install} and readme file \ttt{UTIL/PYTHON/README.INSTALL}).

     67%One of the advantages of an approach using \ttt{python}, apart from its open-source philosophy and the abundant online documentation, is that it allows, in a common framework, for scripting with various options, integrating Fortran routines, manipulating arrays, making plots with various map projections. This is exemplified by the \ttt{pp.py} script. It can both perform interpolation with \ttt{api} for the level requested by the user then generate a map, all that in one simple command line. For instance, Figures~\ref{arsia} in chapter~\ref{compile} has been generated by the following two commands\footnote{The first plot can also be obtained by the command \ttt{domain.py -f name\_of\_file}}:

     76%Many options are implemented in our \ttt{pp.py} script. The information on the existing options to~\ttt{pp.py} can be obtained by typing \ttt{pp.py -h} (cf. next page). Examples on how to use the \ttt{pp.py} script can be found in \ttt{UTIL/PYTHON/README.PP}. The script can also be edited to suit your needs if the desired option does not exist.

     85%\item The option \ttt{-i} in \ttt{pp.py} make use of the Fortran routines \ttt{api.F90} and \ttt{time.F}. The routines have to be converted to \ttt{python} commands using \ttt{f2py}. Please execute the script amongst \ttt{api\_g95.sh}, \ttt{api\_ifort.sh}, \ttt{api\_pgf90.sh} which corresponds to the Fortran compiler installed on your system. Check for errors/warnings in the log files and ensure that the two files \ttt{api.so} and \ttt{timestuff.so} are generated.

    5354Apart from the executables just compiled, the preprocessing utilities include \ttt{real.exe}, which was compiled by the \ttt{makemeso} script along with the mesoscale model executable \ttt{wrf.exe}\footnote{Even though the name of the executable reads e.g. \ttt{real\_x61\_y61\_z61\_d1\_t1\_p1.exe}, such program is not related to the specific \ttt{makemeso} parameters -- contrary to the \ttt{wrf.exe} executable. We just found that renaming the (possibly similar if the model sources were not modified) \ttt{real.exe} executable was a practical way not to confuse between executables compiled at different moments.} (cf. chapter~\ref{compile}). \ttt{real.exe} should be copied or linked in the simulation directory (e.g. \ttt{TESTCASE} for the Arsia Mons test case) to be at the same level than \ttt{namelist.input}.

    8895The other necessary operation to prepare the LMD-MGCM for step~1 is to store a set of initial states for the LMD-MGCM to start with, based on previous typical LMD-MGCM runs having reached equilibrium after ten years of integration. A reference database\footnote{If another database is used, \ttt{compile} must be edited; default is~$64 \times 48 \times 32$ GCM runs with~$2$ tracers.} can be found in the following online archive~\url{ftp://ftp.lmd.jussieu.fr/pub/aslmd/STARTBASE_64_48_32_t2.tar.gz}. This archive must be extracted somewhere on a disk that would be accessible to the system you plan to run the mesoscale model on. A link named~\ttt{startbase} towards the \ttt{STARTBASE\_64\_48\_32\_t2} directory must be created in the directory~\ttt{\$MESO/LMDZ.MARS/myGCM}.

     102It is important to check that the chosen reference database 1. spans the season desired for the mesoscale simulation; 2. includes the right number of tracers and vertical extent; and 3. uses GCM parameterizations that are close to the ones employed in the subsequent mesoscale simulations.
