Gridded outputs are converted to grib GRIB using local grib GRIB definitions built into Metview.
FLEXPART grib GRIB files have their own local section (Section 2) containing additional information about the given field and the FLEXPART simulation itself. The snapshot below taken from Metview's Grib Examiner shows the currently defined set of keys in Section 2.

To plot a particular parameter and level we need to filter the desired fields from the resulting FLEXPART output GRIB file. Unfortunately, Metview's Grib Filter icon cannot handle these files (partly due to the local GRIB definition they use) so we need to use Macro with a set of functions dedicated to FLEXPART some FLEXPART-related command to deal with this problems. See Using FLEXPART with Metview for details. |
