ISCCP D2 Data Set Readme File NOTE: The file contents for the time periods July 1983 - January 1994 and February 1994 - present are different. The later files no longer contain the read software and the ancillary data are included as a VDATA. The latest FORTRAN read software will read both formats. 1.0 Introduction This file contains information about the International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project (ISCCP) D2 data set. (ISCCP_D2) The data files are in HDF format. The home page for ISCCP is located at http://isccp.giss.nasa.gov/ This readme file also includes the following sections: Section 2.0 - provides general information about the data set. Section 3.0 - describes the format of the data. Section 4.0 - provides the user with science parameter information Section 5.0 - describes the sample read software. Section 6.0 - discusses how to invoke the run-time executable. Section 7.0 - provides an example of an actual run of the sample read software. If users have questions while using the ISCCP_D2 sample read software, please contact the Langley Data Center User and Data Services office at: Langley Atmospheric Science Data Center NASA Langley Research Center Mail Stop 157D, 2 S.

The later files no longer contain the read software and the ancillary data are included as a VDATA. The latest FORTRAN read software will read both formats. There are 2 naming conventions for these files. The first convention is as follows: d2_3hrlymon_YYYYMM YYYY is the year, MM is the month, For example: d2_3hrlymon_198312 There are 4 files that would be included in the ISCCP_D2 data file. They are volume identification file (volid), table of contents (toc1) file, ancillary data file (ancil) and Calibration Correction Factors/Meteosat RS Correction Factors (calmetcor) file. Each file is followed with a .YYYY. The ancillary files cover the entire year. For example: d2ancil.1993 d2calmetcor.1993 d2toc1.1993 d2volid1.1993 The second file naming convention is as follows: ISCCP.TTTTTT.V.SATID.YYYY.MM.DD.HH.MM.DCN.hdf TTTTTT - data type D2 - ISCCP D2 data file V - version number SATID - GLOBAL - used if multiple or no satellites apply YYYY - year = 1981...2005 (always 4 numbers, fill = 9999) MM - month number = 1...12 (always 2 numbers, fill = 99) DD - day of month = 1...31 (always 2 numbers, fill = 99) HHMM - hour-minute GMT = 0000...2100 (always 4 characters, fill = 9999) DCN - data center name where data originated. For non-data files, the date and time fields may be fill values. Example: ISCCP.D2.0.GLOBAL.1995.01.99.9999.GPC.hdf (data file) The ISCCP D2 data set has one file per day for the data years currently archived at the Data Center. These files each contain data for 8 UTCs (GMT 0, GMT 3, GMT 6, ..., GMT 21) and the monthly average for all hours. There are 130 variables per UTC. These variables are identified in the README file which the user can extract from the HDF file using the sample read software. Hierarchical Data Format Libraries (HDF): ========================================= The HDF libraries, source code and documentation can be obtained free of charge from the National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA) at the following URL http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu NCSA also provides a variety of tools to assist in viewing, analyzing, and displaying HDF formatted data files. 4.0 Science Parameters Information The ISCCP_D2 data set contains monthly, 280 KM equal-area grid data from various polar and geostationary satellites. More information on the ancillary and data files can be obtained from the International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project (ISCCP) Documentation of New Cloud Datasets documentation available at URL http://isccp.giss.nasa.gov/doc/documents.html 5.0 Description of Sample Read Software The Hierarchical Data Formatted (HDF) ISCCP D2 data files also have an embedded FORTRAN read program supplied by the data provider. This program is sample software intended to provide minimal capabilities. Users should modify the program to accommodate their specific needs. A "C" language version of the program was developed by the Langley Data Center and is also provided as sample read software. It is the user's responsibility to modify the program to accommodate their specific needs. Both read software programs have been tested with the HDF 3.3r4 and HDF 4.1r1 libraries. If using any of the HDF 4.0 beta releases of the HDF libraries, the user should be aware of additional HDF libraries which must be included for the program to load correctly. The release notes for the various beta releases specify the additional required libraries and the order in which they should be specified for proper loading. 6.0 Implementing Sample Read Software Example command line compilation statements are included here. The various paths need to be changed to correspond to those being used on your platform. In additional special DEFINES may be required for specific platforms. For example an HP platform may require a "-DHP9000", while an SGI platform may require a "-32" or "-n32" in the command line compilation statement.

To assist the user in this effort the following notes are included: 1) Change line "DO 600 IUTC=1,9" to match whatever UTCs (GMTs) you want to extract (~line 75) 2) Change line "IF ( LAT .EQ. 36 .AND. LON .LT. 5 ) THEN" (~line 108) to match the latitude longitudes values for whatever cells you want the program to output. The correlation between the cell number and the latitude/longitude can be found in the fourth HDF file description included in the file. 3) Change variable HDFFILE (~line 65) to the appropriate file name. If many different files will be processed, it will be easier to use a generic name (something like HDF_LINK) and use the UNIX symbolic link capability. This will avoid the necessity of re-editing the program to change the file name assigned to HDFFILE and recompiling the program. ln -s /ISCCP_D2/1990/d2_3hrlymon_9001.hdf.bin D2_LINK After that file is processed, remove the link and generate a new one: rm -f D2_LINK ln -s /ISCCP_D2/1990/d2_3hrlymon_9002.hdf.bin D2_LINK The Langley Data Center's on-line version of the FORTRAN read program is identical to the FORTRAN program embedded by the data provider in the ISCCP D2 HDF file, with one exception: the HDFFILE variable name has been changed to D2_LINK. 4) The ISCCP D2 read program also prints a series of messages when it is converting the integer values to physical values similar to: D1PHYS: LAT BAND 1 CONVERTED TO PHYSICAL VALUES These are messages printed out by the routine named "D1PHYS" and simply indicate processing of data by the program. This should not be confused in any way with ISCCP D1. The "D1PHYS:" should be "D2PHYS:". 5) Two discrepancies were noted in the README file embedded in the ISCCP D2 HDF data files: a) The line "FILE DESCRIPTION 5 - ANCILLARY DATA TABLE" should indicate "FILE DESCRIPTION 4 - ANCILLARY DATA TABLE" instead. b) The line "FILE DESCRIPTION 6 - CALIBRATION CORRECTION COEFFICIENTS" should indicate FILE DESCRIPTION 5 - CALIBRATION CORRECTION COEFFICIENTS" instead. 6) On the SGI, ICHAR evidently interprets the high order (leftmost) bit in the byte as the sign of the number (+ or-), which means that values greater than 127 are interpreted on the SGI as being negative, with values ranging from -128 to -1. This is a compiler "bug" which has apparently been fixed in IRIX 7.2. If you are using an earlier version of IRIX then you need to use the following fix. To fix this problem, add the following code in the DO 490 loop after the ICHAR line (after line 244): IF (IVAR(I,LON) .LT. 0) THEN IVAR(I,LON) = IVAR(I,LON) + 256 ENDIF Section: 7.0 A Sample Run
