Link Configuration file to r12hfile.txt

Mainly modifying the data sources

2.5.5 Run the executable files

Link different configuration files, and run executable files, then output different results.

3 PAS mini-program

3.1 Code for PAS mini-program

(/Code/3_Software_of_PAS in the Code.rar file)

  pas10ux.f90   Main program, used to perform PAS verification on single point precipitation forecast

  mod_uxpasid2.f90   Subprogram, Module for PAS of single point forecast

  compilePAS10ux.sh   Used to compile source files to generate executable file under Linux

  pas10ux.exe   Executable file

3.2 The steps for PAS mini-program

   1. Creating an installation and running sub-directory

    mkdir pas

   2. Copying code files and configuration files to this directory

   3. Running in this directory

    ./compilePAS10ux.sh Compile to generate executable file (pastonc6hd2.exe)

   4. linking the executable file as pas

    ln -sf pas10ux.exe pas

   5. Running the PAS mini-program

for example: ./pas 15 20

Parameter 1:  15   represents observed precipitation

Parameter 2:  20   represents forecasted precipitation

Output: 0.895   1

    The following instructions for specific usage:

pas rainsk rainyb [level]

    Input parameters

    Parameter 1 (rainsk): observed precipitation (mm)

    Parameter 2 (rainyb): forecasted precipitation (mm)

    Parameter 3 (level): Specifing magnitude (Optional, default to ≥0.1 mm)

    Onput parameters

Parameter 1 (ipas): Pas score value (0-1) or correct value of no precipitation forecast (1);

-999.000 represents default.

Parameter 2 (iTure):

0 indicates that the rating is correct for a no precipitation forecast;

1 indicates a PAS score of ≥ the specified magnitude;

9 indicates that it is not in the no precipitation test, nor is it the verification the specified magnitude;

-999 indicates default.
