Getting files from the Research Data Archive

The output from the CAM6+DART Reanalysis is stored in NCAR’s Research Data Archive.

Location of files on the GLADE filesystem

The files are available for Cheyenne users on the GLADE filesystem here:

cd /gpfs/fs1/collections/rda/data/ds345.0/rest/2018-01/
cp *2018-01-01* /glade/scratch/johnsonb/archive/f.e21.FHIST_BGC.f09_025.CAM6assim.011/rest

Untarring all of the instances

In order to untar all of the instances, run untar.py:

#!/usr/bin/env python

from __future__ import print_function

import os

for instance in range(1, 81):

   instance_string = str(instance).zfill(4)
   print(instance_string)

   arch_string = 'f.e21.FHIST_BGC.f09_025.CAM6assim.011.'+instance_string+'.alltypes.2018-01-01-00000.tar'

   command = 'tar -xvf '+arch_string

   print(command)
   os.system(command)

Then simply unzip the compressed files:

cd /glade/scratch/johnsonb/archive/f.e21.FHIST_BGC.f09_025.CAM6assim.011/rest/2018-01-01-00000
gunzip -v *.gz
