Massive-Parallel Trajectory Calculations (MPTRAC) is a Lagrangian particle dispersion model for the analysis of atmospheric transport processes in the free troposphere and stratosphere.
**Is your feature request related to a problem?** - Check the definition of pressure levels sets in `level_definitions()` in `libtrac.c`. **Describe the solution you'd like** - Add additional pressure levels...
Suggestions to modify the library build script: - [x] Limit the set of libraries built with the default option/selection to those that are mandatory for building the model (i.e. GSL,...
**Is your feature request related to a problem?** - new users need more detailed documentation to get started with MPTRAC **Describe the solution you'd like** - check/revise the README file...
**Is your feature request related to a problem?** - Users might have difficulties compiling MPTRAC before they can run it on Juelich HPC systems. **Describe the solution you'd like** -...
**Is your feature request related to a problem?** - MPTRAC may have limited capabilities for calculating trajectories in the boundary layer due to using pressure as vertical coordinate. Meteo data...
**Is your feature request related to a problem?** - Some additional variables (ul, vl, wl, o3c, ...) have recently been added to the meteo pre-processing code and meteo data structs...
- I've added automatic e-mail notifications for the MPTRAC nightly builds (https://datapub.fz-juelich.de/slcs/mptrac/nightly_builds/) on JUWELS and JURECA. - We can add more colleagues (developers, in particular) to receive these notifications so...
