future plans for Lagranto

.B [1] CF netCDF [until 1 April 2011]
7
interface to CF netCDF format

.B [2] GRIB 
10
interface to GRIB format

.B [3] box tracing
13
Instead of tracing point meteorological fields, trace the mean,maximum, minimum, median, variance,... within a box around the trajectory position 
14
.TP 5
15
.B [4] stochastic trajectories
16
allow in caltra the addition of a random noise to the velocities; option "-random 0.01" would allow random variations of U, V and OMEGA in the range of 1 %. As a further step, a physical based "parameterisation" of turbulence could be included (based on Ri, DEF, TKE,...). This would allow to calculate an ensemble of trajectories, e.g. for one receptor point.

.TP 5
18
.B [5] Parallelisation
19
parallelisation of caltra, and possibly also of trace and select.

.TP 5
21
.B [6] webLagranto
22
web interface to Lagranto - in analogy to the HYSPLIT model
23
.TP 5
24
.B [7] cosmoLagranto
25
new version of COSMO Lagranto
26
.SH MINOR
27
.TP 5
28
.SH [1] SPECIAL
29
remeber the settings for a SPECIAL command in the parameter list; this will make the evaluation of SPECIAL commands more efficient.
30
.TP 5
31
.SH [2] offset in K
32
allow vertical offsets in K for tracing, e.g. 'PV:+5K' traces PV 5 K above the trajectory position
33
.TP 5
34
.B [3] SPECIAL:STE
35
special criterion for STE, STT and TST in the form SPECIAL:STE:380,2,0,24,48; tropopause 2 PVU/380 K, STE within time 0-24 h, residence before and after the exchange at least 48 h.
36
.TP 5
37
.B [4] compact data format
38
additional formats for trajectory files: 1) compressed format; 2) FLEXPART format.
39
.TP 5
40
.B [5] Goody: residence
41
calculate the residence time in a specified region for all trajectories in a file
42
.TP 5 
43
.B [6] Goody: distance
44
calculate the mimimum distance from a lon/lat/p point for all trajectories in a file.
45
.TP 5
46
.B [6] Extension of Lagranto run
47
extend forward and backward in time an existing Lagranto run
48
.TP 5
49
.B [7] Definition of polygons
50
Matlab tool for the definition of polygon files. 
51
.TP 5
52
.B [8] datelist
53
Goody for handling of datelists: 1) datelist file -create start end; 2) datelist file -len; 3) datelist file -first|last; 4) datelist file -sort; 5) datelist file1 file2 -onlyin1|onlyin2|overlap|difference
