Advanced / Configuration Setup

This section provides some guidance in configuring the model input to perform certain specialized calculations. The default configuration supplied with the test meteorological data is confined to a simple trajectory and inert transport and dispersion calculation. More complex scenarios can be configured through the Advanced menu "Configuration Setup" for trajectories or concentrations. These situations require the creation or modification of the "SETUP.CFG" namelist file. This can be accomplished through the GUI or by directly editing the namelist file. The file is required to be in the model startup directory, usually ./working when running the model through the GUI. The trajectory and concentration menus are confined to the variables relevant to the respective model calculation. More information is given in each menu's help section. An simple edit menu is provided to create a file of extra label information that is added to the bottom of trajectory or concentration plots. Also there is a menu to configure a dynamic sampler that can move in space and time for use with the concentration simulation. The directories menu is used to configure the default directory structure and location of executable programs used by the GUI.
