  • CSNOW_ROAD : snow scheme used over roads
  • CSNOW_ROOF : snow scheme used over roofs
  • CFILE_SNOW_TEB : name of the file used to define the snow profiles. The use of a file or prescribed value of XRSNOW_ROOF/ROAD, XTSNOW_ROOF/ROAD, XWSNOW_ROOF/ROAD and XASNOW_ROOF/ROAD has priority on the data in CFILE_SNOW_TEB file
  • CTYPE_SNOW : type of the CFILE_SNOW_TEB file, if the latter is provided. CTYPE_SNOW must then be given. The following values are currently usable:
    • "MESONH" : the file type is a MESONH file.
    • "GRIB " : the file type is a GRIB file, coming from any of these models:
      1. "ECMWF " : european center forecast model
      2. "ARPEGE" : Arpege french forecast model
      3. "ALADIN" : Aladin french forecast local model
      4. "MOCAGE" : Mocage french research chemistry model
    • "LFI " : LFI PREP file
    • "ASCII": ASCII PREP FILE
  • CFILEPGD_SNOW_TEB : name of the associated PGD file if CFILE_SNOW_TEB is a PREP files.
  • CTYPEPGD_SNOW : type of the CFILEPGD_SNOW
  • XWSNOW_ROOF : roof snow content
  • XWSNOW_ROAD : road snow content
  • XTSNOW_ROAD : road temperature
  • XTSNOW_ROOF : roof temperature
  • XLWCSNOW_ROAD : road snow liquid water content (kg/m3)
  • XLWCSNOW_ROOF : roof snow liquid water content (kg/m3)
  • XRSNOW_ROOF : roof density
  • XRSNOW_ROAD : road density
  • XASNOW_ROAD : road albedo
  • XASNOW_ROOF : road albedo
  • LSNOW_IDEAL_TEB : if LSNOW_IDEAL_TEB = .FALSE. , only one value can be given for following snow parameters and a vertical interpolation is processed. If LSNOW_IDEAL_TEB = .TRUE., values are given for each layer and there is no vertical interpolation performed.
