fgout and fgmax grids¶
The directory $GTT/CopalisBeach/example2
contains examples showing how to make fgout and fgmax files during the
simulation. Here fg stands for fixed grid and the basic idea is that the
user specifies a fixed Cartesian grid (typically in longitude-latitude) on
which the results are desired, independent of the structure and resolution
of the AMR grids that may be active in the region covering this fixed grid,
which will typically be changing with time.
First read Overview of fgout and fgmax for a general introduction to fgout and fgmax grids,
and an annotated version of the additions to setrun.py needed to specify
these grids.
