ECOSIM NetCDF Generator

This script generates NetCDF input files for the ECOSIM biogeochemical model using:

1. YAML configuration specifying site name and output file
2. Data from the ameriflux_site_info skill for site metadata
3. Data from the ameriflux_atmchem_info skill for atmospheric chemistry
4. The Blodget.clim.2012-2022.nc.template as the NetCDF file structure

Usage

python generate_ecosim_netcdf.py config.yaml

Configuration File Format

The YAML configuration file should contain:

• site_name: AmeriFlux site identifier (e.g., "US-Ha1")
• output_file: Path where the NetCDF file will be saved
• tdep_data_path: Path to tDEP data directory
• start_year: Starting year for atmospheric chemistry data
• end_year: Ending year for atmospheric chemistry data

Example Configuration

site_name: "US-Ha1"
output_file: "result/ecosim_input.nc"
tdep_data_path: "data/tDEP"
start_year: 2012
end_year: 2022

Features

• Integrates with existing AmeriFlux skills
• Uses template-based NetCDF structure
• Handles site metadata extraction
• Extracts atmospheric chemistry data for specified years
• Creates properly formatted ECOSIM input files
