Processing TROPOMI L2 NO2 data and plotting

[rrbuchholz]

Is this only for WRF comparisons right now and you plan to generalize to more models later? Or should we call this python script cal_wrf_no2col.py?

[mlirenzhenmayi]

This is for WRF right now. I'm not sure if this can be applied to other models. It should work but with several modifications such as variable names, etc. I think it does make sense to change it to cal_wrf_no2col.py.

Hi Meng,
There are some conflicts in the driver - could you pull the latest version of the MELODIES MONET develop branch code to your fork and make sure they are harmonized?
Best,
Rebecca

@dwfncar : David I'm not sure what issues might be remaining in Meng's pull request. She harmonized the driver. Could you possibly take a look? Thanks!

[rrbuchholz]

P.S. @mlirenzhenmayi : Meng it looks like these might be the issue:
util/cal_mod_no2col.py doesn't have correct header
util/sat_l2_swath_utility.py doesn't have correct header

But thinking about these further... should this code be inside the: satellite_utilities.py file?
@dwfncar, @mebruckner : thoughts?

[rrbuchholz]

@mlirenzhenmayi - could you pull another two updates two your branch? There's one for driver.py and one for satplots.py.

Looks like AERONET web server is currently being updated, causing a CI failure.

Hmmm, am wondering why we need the AERONET data for the TROPOMI satellite code?

It's a test of the get-aeronet tool. Not related to TROPOMI. But the tests run on every PR. I just re-ran and now they're passing again.

Note that the linter check is still failing since util/sat_l2_swath_utility.py and util/cal_mod_no2col.py don't have the license header yet.

Thanks Zach!

I see maybe you added those license lines now to those files?
