Lost forecast ensemble keys when applying cdo function

Added by guillaume dueymes about 2 years ago

Good morning,
I m working with ECMWF ensemble files S7E . I m trying to apply a simple landsea mask to reduce the amount of data to load in our production system.

This the function to apply my grib mask :
/opt/cdo-1.7.0/bin/cdo mul S7E_LSM_100km.grib S7E04110000041103001_100v.grb S7E04110000041103001_100v_masked.grb.tmp

This step is fine, my result field is correctly masked, but we are losing forecast ensemble keys :-( which is mandatory is our system.

Here is an example: left panel is my masked field and right one is my original field:

Do you know if I m missing something here to keep grib keys (ie pertubation number) in my result field ?

Many thanks for your help !

Guillaume

hi guillaume!

this looks like grib1. you could try the `--eccodes` option to use a different library for grib1 processing. I am not sure if this will solve you problem, buyt it's worth a try IMO.

Do you use special tables for your grib file?
