0 'mslprf' = msl pressure forcing flag (0=F,1=T)
Thank you so much for your detailed explanation. I have two more questions:
Can you please share any documents that explain this in detail? I couldn't find any comprehensive documents by searching online.
I am planning to download RTOFS SSH using this link: NOAA NWS RTOFS. I downloaded a netCDF file, but it doesn't contain SSH. Should I be looking at rtofs_glo.t00z.f01.archs.a.tgz or rtofs_glo.t00z.f01.archs.b instead?
Best,
Parisa
Parisa,what file(s) did you download? I'm checkingrtofs_glo.t00z.f06.archv.[ab]in the *.b (a text file) you can see:srfhgt = 64731240 44952.250 0 0.000 -1.8124247E+01 1.3719835E+01To get ssh in m , you will need to do: srfhgt/9.806If you use python, see example:lines 91-93and functions to read HYCOM binary:You will need the one that starts on line 255Dmitry
