Description

What is this new feature?

No observations are currently being used in the land diagnostics.

  • Populate datasets in central location (e.g. /glade/campaign/cgd/amp/amwg/ADF_obs),
    • Maybe this lives in a CUPiD observations home?
    • Alternatively we could just draw from ILAMB?
  • Regrid to standard resolution(s) (start with f09_t232)
  • Include any unit conversions, I think these go into lib/ldf_variable_defaults.yaml
  • Check that plots look as expected

Research direction

Start by reviewing the land-diagnostics data flow and the proposed observation sources, including a CUPiD observations home or ILAMB. Define how datasets would be populated in /glade/campaign/cgd/amp/amwg/ADF_obs, regridded to f09_t232, and converted using lib/ldf_variable_defaults.yaml. Confirm completion by checking that the resulting plots look as expected.
