Navigating GLM outputs

Matt Hipsey edited this page Sep 13, 2022 · 6 revisions

Users rely on a diversity of platforms and approaches for interacting with and visualising GLM output. The user community has developed a range of scripting and plotting tools. This page provides information to get started understanding GLM outputs.

Output file options include:

  • Daily integrated lake information : lake.CSV
  • Depth specific information : depth_specific.CSV
  • Lake outlet/overflow information : outlet.CSV
  • All model output variables : NetCDF

The pages linked to below contain specific information on each output file type:

User rely on various platforms to process these outputs. Plotting options include:

  • In-built plotting: Depth-profile contours are built into the distributed model binary, configured via plots.nml
  • Excel: Plot essential time-series of model outputs from the generated csv files
  • R: Create high-quality model outputs using the GLMr tools for NetCDF plotting or general tidyverse for csv plotting
  • MATLAB: Create high-quality model outputs using the GLMm scripts

See the tutorials page for further information on processing these outputs.
