This repository contains input data and scripts that can be used to perform code-to-code comparisons of modal aerosol models with MAM. Each directory is devoted to a single set of parameterizations for a single aerosol process.
The following tools are useful for performing cross validation with the files in this repository.
Many of the input files are written in a YAML format used by Skywalker, a
parameter study tool written for the HAERO modal aerosol code. The file format
sets input parameters for various quantities, and lists a set of parameters to
study in an input
block.
Skywalker programs can easily emit Python modules or NCL data files that can be used to plot figures or perform quantitative comparisons.
