Thinner version ID

[Dave Offiler]

Kent suggests adding a separate version ID for the ROPP thinner code to the ropp_io version ID so as to be able to know which thinner is being used by DMI vs EUM (or whoever) for compariosn/validation purposes.

The simplest solution would appear to be to add a version ID to the new (v1.1) thin_method string in the ROPP structure which is also saved as a global attribute in the netCDF file.

[Dave Offiler]

a) Extended thin_method string in ROPP main structure in ropp_io_types.f90 from 60 to 80 characters.

b) Added software ID string parameter definition to ropp_io_thin() [ "v1.1" ] and added this to rodata%thin_method string after the method ID & title.

c) Re-compiled (ifort) and tested by running (in ropp_io/data):

$ ../tools/ropp2ropp ropp_test.nc -d -p 100 -o t1.nc
Reading ropp_test.nc ...

Thinning method: SAMPLE (Sampling to a maximum of 100 levels) [v1.1]
Level 1b data (BA) not thinned
Refractivity data not thinned
Level 2b data (T,q,P) not thinned
Ensuring all profiles are in ascending height order...

Actually, something is wrong here: there are 319 BA, Ref & TqP samples in the input file, and the command should sample to <=100 - which it hasn't done, and even says its hasn't. This needs separate investigation'''

And further:

> ncdump -h t1.nc
...
               :thin_method = "NONE (Thinning disabled) [v1.1]" ;
...
