-In order to test the compiled executables, a ready-to-use test case (with pre-generated initial and boundary conditions) is proposed in the \ttt{LMD\_MM\_MARS\_TESTCASE.tar.gz} archive that you can download in the following FTP site \url{ftp://ftp.lmd.jussieu.fr/pub/aslmd/LMD_MM_MARS_TESTCASE.tar.gz}. This test case simulates the hydrostatic atmospheric flow around Arsia Mons (Figure~\ref{arsia}) during half a sol in springtime with constant thermal inertia, albedo and dust opacity\footnote{Though the simulation reproduces some reasonable features of the mesoscale circulation around Arsia Mons (e.g. slope winds), it should not be used for scientific purpose, for the number of grid points is unsufficient for single-domain simulation and the integration time is below the necessary spin-up time.}.

-To launch the test simulation, please type the following commands, replacing the \ttt{g95\_32\_single} directory with its corresponding value on your system. In the end, the model should run and output the computed meteorological fields in netCDF files named \ttt{wrfout*}. Feel free to browse those files with \ttt{ncview} or your favorite graphical tool to check if the simulated fields look reasonable.
