The simulation itself is defined by the 'tr_run' FLEXPART Run icon and the 'rel_ncastle' FLEXPART Release icon, respectively. Both these are encompassed in a single macro called 'tr_run.mv'. For simplicity will use this macro to examine the settings in detail.

The actual species that will be released is defined as an integer number (for details about using the species see here). With the default species settings number 1 stands for atmospheric tracer. |
If we run this macro (or alternatively right-click execute the FLEXPART Run icon) the resulting CSV file, 'tr_r001.csv', will appear (after a minute or so) in folder 'result_tr'. For details about the FLEXPART trajectory outputs click here.
Step 1 - Plotting the mean track
...
The macro to use is 'plot_tr_step3.mv' and is basically the same as the one in Step 2 but contains an additional plot layer. In this plot layer we draw circles around the mean trajectory waypoints using the RMS (root mean square) of the horizontal distances of the particles to this waypoint. The code goes like this:
