Data and plot scripts for paper publication: "Deep Convective Smoke Transport during the 2025 Alberta Fires"

Overview This repository contains data and scripts required to reproduce the analyses presented in the study of the Red Earth East Complex PyroCb event in Alberta, Canada, in May 2025. The archive contains: data.zip: observational and auxiliary datasets used in the analysis notebooks.zip: Notebooks to reproduce the figures runscript.zip: scripts and configuration files used to setup the ICON HAM-lite numerical simulations file_list.txt: A tree-like list of subdirectories and files inside the .zips How to run the Jupyter Notebooks A fully rendered version of the Jupyter Notebooks is available on Github at https://github.com/MuellerJason/Red-Earth-PyroCb-Notebooks. To rerun the Juypter Notebooks follow these steps: Download and unpack the Notebooks Download and unpack the observational and auxiliary datasets from this repository Download and unpack the postprocessed ICON HAM-lite simulation output from the DOKU storage at: https://www.wdc-climate.de/ui/entry?acronym=DKRZ_LTA_1174_ds00004 Adjust all the Paths and run the Notebooks How to reproduce the numeric simulations Get the ICON HAM-lite model code from Zenodo: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.18270606 Get the necessary input data for initial and boundary conditions Configure and compile ICON HAM-lite Download and unpack the runscript and configure file from this repository and put it into the correct directory, depending on your setup Run the simulation
