Large eddy simulations of atmospheric boundary layer (TurbuABL)

Description

The ABL-LES dataset simulates the atmospheric boundary layer across a wide range of turbulent regimes, from channel flow to strong convective cases, with various boundary conditions (e.g., surface heating, geostrophic wind, free tropospheric lapse rate). The data also includes several implemented scalars (e.g., chemicals with various sources). This dataset is ideal for studying turbulence and transport under a wide range of conditions, making it great for data-driven approaches, specifically for developing parameterizations of the atmospheric boundary layer that can be implemented in climate or weather models.

Hey @Sshamekh, thanks for submitting this. Where is the data accessible?

[Sshamekh]

Hi Julius,
They are on NCAR HPC

[jbusecke]

Ah ok that makes things (possibly) harder. Can you ask if there is a way for them to make them accessible via http or ftp in some way?

[Sshamekh]

Thanks Julius.
I will reach out to the NCAR helpdesk to inquire about HTTP or FTP access. However, I wanted to check if using Globus would also be an option beforehand.

[jbusecke]

Possibly. Could you check if they subscribe to the Globus S3 Connector? If that is the case we might be able to move the data to an OSN bucket.

[jbusecke]

Please feel free to cc me in emails if you think that would be helpful.

[jbusecke]

Actually did you ever get an answer to this? If they have their own setup, that might make things easier.

[Sshamekh]

Here is their Globus : https://ncar-hpc-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/storage-systems/data-transfer/globus/
But they didn't mention S3 connector. I will check with them

[jbusecke]

Hi @Sshamekh, just wanted to check in on the status of the transfer? Do you have some time to let it run some time soon?
