Normalized biogenic emissions - 4 km and 1.33 km

SMOKE Emissions Inventory

Hi,

I am trying to generate 4 km and 1.33 km biogenic emissions (beis4_norm_emis) for two domains, but I cannot find the original 1-km BELD6 input files for aggregation to coarser resolutions. Is there another way to generate these? The GRIDDESC files are attached.

Thanks!

The 1km BELD6 files and related re-gridding scripts used to generate BEIS4 inputs are not posted at this time.

I generated the normbeis files for your two domains and shared them on the FTP site, linked below.

If you do have further domains with a resolution 4 km or larger that are nested to the 12US1 you can aggregate and subset from the 4US1 file posted in the link below.
