Variable No. Variable Type Description<br />

1 SIGMA real array Sigma-p values used by MM4/MM5 to define each <strong>of</strong> the<br />

NZP layers<br />

Next NXP*NYP Records<br />

Variable No. Variable Type Description<br />

1 IINDEX integer I-index (X direction) <strong>of</strong> the grid point in the extraction<br />

subdomain<br />

2 JINDEX integer J-index (Y direction) <strong>of</strong> the grid point in the extraction<br />

subdomain<br />

3 XLATDOT real array N. L<strong>at</strong>itude (degrees) <strong>of</strong> the grid point in the extraction<br />

subdomain (positive for the Northern Hemisphere,<br />

neg<strong>at</strong>ive for Southern Hemisphere)<br />

4 XLONGDOT real array E. Longitude (degrees) <strong>of</strong> the grid point in the extraction<br />

subdomain (N.B., the MM4/MM5 convention is different<br />

than the CALMET convention: MM4/MM5 uses neg<strong>at</strong>ive<br />

values for Western Hemisphere and positive values for<br />

Eastern Hemisphere. CALMET internally converts the<br />

longitudes in the MM4.DAT file, so the MM4/MM5<br />

convention must be used in the MM4.DAT file)<br />

5 IELEVDOT integer array Terrain elev<strong>at</strong>ion <strong>of</strong> the grid point in the extraction<br />

subdomain (m MSL)<br />

6 ILUDOT integer array Land use description code <strong>of</strong> the grid point in the<br />

extraction subdomain<br />
