Dear Vincent,<br><br>RegCM3 outputs to the ATM, RAD, and CHE files every 6 hours by default and to the SRF file every 3.  You would need to change the following variables to the value &#39;1&#39; in the file &#39;<a href="http://regcm.in">regcm.in</a>&#39; before running the model in order to get hourly output:<br>
tapfrq,<br>batfrq<br>radisp,<br>chemfrq<br><br>And then to postproc these hourly data, you would need to do the following:<br>1) Change dtout, dtbat, dtrad, dtche, and dtsub to the value 1.00 in the file &#39;postproc.param&#39; in the directory &#39;PostProc&#39;<br>
2) re-make postproc<br>3) set &#39;! Write out all RegCM data b/twn idate1 &amp; idate2?&#39; to the value &#39;.true.&#39; in the file &#39;<a href="http://postproc.in">postproc.in</a>&#39; in your run directory, and set the other three averaging flags (&#39;Average...&#39;, &#39;Dirunali...&#39;, and &#39;Continually...&#39;) to the value &#39;.false.&#39; in the same file.<br>
4) Run postproc<br><br>I am outlining the steps here without testing them in an actual run, so it is possible I am missing a step in this process.  Does anyone on the RegCNET notice any mistakes or omissions in this process?<br>
<br>I hope this helps!<br><br>Sincerely,<br>-Travis O&#39;Brien-<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Oct 28, 2009 at 3:03 AM, Vincent Lanre Ajayi <span dir="ltr">&lt;<a href="mailto:vincentajayi@yahoo.com">vincentajayi@yahoo.com</a>&gt;</span> wrote:<br>

I am running RegCM to study MCS over West Africa. I would prefer my result on hourly basis rather than daily and monthly mean in the present RegCM3 post processor. Can anyone explain how i can get post-processing output on hourly basis and how often does regcm output data its binary file.<br>
