This release includes the following notable changes:

  • The addition of support for a MODIS 15-arc-second land use dataset with lakes.

    • This dataset is described in

      Broxton, P. D., Zeng, X., Sulla-Menashe, D., & Troch, P. A. (2014). A global
      land cover climatology using MODIS data. Journal of Applied Meteorology and
      Climatology, 53(6), 1593-1605. DOI: 10.1175/JAMC-D-13-0270.1

      and may be activated by prepending the geog_data_res namelist option with
      'modis_15s_lake+' after downloading the dataset.

  • The addition of initial support for POWER systems running Linux with the XL
    compilers.

  • Adjustments to the RH field from GEFS data to be w.r.t. liquid water, as is
    done for GFS, CDAS, and ECMWF.

  • A change in the default mean sea-level pressure field from smooth PRMSL to
    unsmoothed MSLET for GFS datasets.

  • Corrections to the rotation of horizontal wind vectors that are provided on
    a Cassini/rotated lat-lon projection.
