Heated Condensation Framework (HCF) Algorithm and Analysis Data

This data was generated by Finley Hay-Chapman and modified by Briah Davis for use in research concerning land-atmosphere interactions. The data consist of single-column model output from the single column model version 6 (SCAM6) model within the larger Community Earth System Model. Outputs consists of various atmospheric and land surface variables. Boundary conditions were generated from the variational analysis product available for download at https://adc.arm.gov/discovery/#/. This specific model consists of output from May 1, 2012 to August 31, 2018. Time in the dataset has been converted to datetime64 format and filtered between 11 and 23 LST. Additionally, the data has been filtered for times when the sensible heat flux (SHFLX) and latent heat flux (LHFLX) are positive. Finally, the interface and midpoints pressures are calculated and appended to the DataArrays using the sigma level information provided in the original output. Note: Data were obtained from the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) User Facility, a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science user facility managed by the Biological and Environmental Research Program.
