just curious - are you suggesting removing the initialize_module routines since they currently do nothing? like if a module needs to be edited for other actual fixes? or someday just...

i also remember at least one case where a user was creating their own obs_seq files with python code and didn't have the linked lists implemented correctly. this made filter...

to implement a general 'get_num_levels()' routine, you'd have to add a new required entry point to the model_mod interface. the model_mods for all models would have to dummy it out...

the other thing that might work is to have a default state variable quantity in the rttov code (temperature, pressure, whatever) for probing for number of model levels. then have...
