Engage -- Use for MAGE with TIEGCM ============================================= Introduction ------------ The Python script ``engage.py`` was developed to simplify the process of configuring and running GTR MAGE (that is, the geospace application of the ``kaiju`` software with TIEGCM.) It provides an interactive, prompt-driven interface to specify all of the parameters needed for a model run. The ``engage.py`` script is a wrapper around the ``makeitso.py`` and TIE-GCM's ``tiegcmrun`` script, which is used to prepare the necessary files for a GTR MAGE model run. - For more details on the ``makeitso.py`` script, see the :doc:`makeitso ` documentation. - For more details on the TIE-GCM ``tiegcmrun`` script, see the `tiegcmrun `_ documentation. The ``engage.py`` script can operate in one of three different modes: ``BASIC``, ``INTERMEDIATE``, or ``EXPERT``. Each mode provides access to a subset of the ``kaiju`` and ``tiegcm`` parameters. * The ``BASIC`` mode Requires the user to provide the minimum set of parameters needed to specify a model run, such as the run ID, and the simulation time periods. * The ``INTERMEDIATE`` mode Allows the user to specify all of the parameters from the ``BASIC`` mode, as well as a wider set of run parameters, such as non-standard file locations and some MHD parameters and TIE-GCM parameters. * The ``EXPERT`` mode Provides access to all of the user-adjustable parameters from the ``kaiju`` and ``TIE-GCM`` software. When finished, the script generates the files needed to run a magnetosphere model, and saves all options in a convenient JSON file so that the run can be repeated at a later date. Running the ``engage.py`` script ---------------------------------- The ``engage.py`` script is provided as part of the ``kaiju`` software. It is found at ``$KAIJUHOME/scripts/makeitso/engage.py``, where ``$KAIJUHOME`` is the location of your ``kaiju`` software tree. After configuring your ``kaiju`` software, you can get help text for the script like this: .. code-block:: bash engage.py --help usage: engage.py [-h] [--clobber] [--debug] [--mode MODE] [--engage_options_path ENGAGE_OPTIONS_PATH] [--makeitso_options_path MAKEITSO_OPTIONS_PATH] [--tiegcm_options_path TIEGCM_OPTIONS_PATH] [--verbose] Interactive script to prepare a MAGE magnetosphere model run. options: -h, --help show this help message and exit --clobber Overwrite existing options file (default: False). --debug, -d Print debugging output (default: False). --mode MODE User mode (BASIC|INTERMEDIATE|EXPERT) (default: BASIC). --engage_options_path ENGAGE_OPTIONS_PATH, -eo ENGAGE_OPTIONS_PATH Path to engage JSON file of options (default: None) --makeitso_options_path MAKEITSO_OPTIONS_PATH, -mo MAKEITSO_OPTIONS_PATH Path to makeitso JSON file of options (default: None) --tiegcm_options_path TIEGCM_OPTIONS_PATH, -to TIEGCM_OPTIONS_PATH Path to tiegcm JSON file of options (default: None) --verbose, -v Print verbose output (default: False). The ``--options_path`` option allows the user to specify an existing JSON file from a previous run of ``engage.py`` so that the entire process of model generation can be automated. More info on this given below. The ``--mode`` option specifies the user mode to run in, with ``BASIC`` being the default. An example in ``BASIC`` mode ---------------------------- This section provdes an annotated example session of ``engage.py`` running in the default ``BASIC`` mode on the ``derecho`` supercomputer. 1. ``engage`` native parameters will be requested ##################################################### .. code-block:: bash engage.py Name to use for PBS job(s) [geospace]: Enter an identifying string to use for your model run.

The default is ``low``, which corresponds to a value of 70. The other options are ``medium`` (140) and ``high`` (200). .. code-block:: bash SOURCE file location [/glade/campaign/hao/itmodel/tiegcm3.0/new_data/source/junsol_f70.nc]: This is the path to the TIE-GCM source file to use for the spin-up period. The default is automatically selected based on the start date of your simulation. .. code-block:: bash Selected date in source file Example: (173,0,0,0) [173 0 0 0]: STEP number [30]: NSTEP_SUB number [10]: These parameters are set as default by the ``tiegcmrun`` .. code-block:: bash Secondary Output Fields [['TN', 'UN', 'VN', 'NE', 'TEC', 'POTEN', 'Z', 'ZG']] / ENTER to go next: These are the secondary output fields to include in the TIE-GCM output. The default is a set of fields that are commonly used in geospace simulations. You can add another filed if you wish, or just hit :kbd:`Return` to accept the default. .. code-block:: bash High-latitude potential model that is going to be used (HEELIS|WEIMER) [HEELIS]: This is the high-latitude potential model to use in the TIE-GCM simulation. The default is ``HEELIS``, which is the Heelis potential model is required for coupled runs with the ``kaiju`` software. .. code-block:: bash If GPI_NCFILE is specified, then KP and POWER/CTPOTEN are skipped. If further POTENTIAL_MODEL is WEIMER and IMF_NCFILE is specified, then the Weimer model and aurora will be driven by the IMF data, and only F107 and F107A will be read from the GPI data file. GPI file [/glade/campaign/hao/itmodel/tiegcm3.0/new_data/boundary_files/GPI/gpi_1960001-2024332.nc]: This is the path to the GPI file to use for the TIE-GCM simulation which contrains solar wind data. The default is automatically selected based on the start date of your simulation. After these inputs, the script interpolates source file for TIEGCM, and generates XML and PBS files for the run, as well as a grid file for use in the model. You should see output similar to this: .. code-block:: bash /glade/derecho/scratch/nikhilr/GTR58 exitsts /glade/derecho/scratch/nikhilr/GTR58 exitsts /glade/derecho/scratch/nikhilr/GTR58 exitsts Interpolating primary file /glade/campaign/hao/itmodel/tiegcm3.0/new_data/source/junsol_f70.nc to create new primary file /glade/derecho/scratch/nikhilr/GTR58/tiegcm_standalone/geospace-tiegcm-standalone_prim.nc at horizontal resolution 2.5 and vertical resolution 0.25 with zitop 7.0. Creating new primary file: /glade/derecho/scratch/nikhilr/GTR58/tiegcm_standalone/geospace-tiegcm-standalone_prim.nc pbs_scripts = ['./geospace-01.pbs', './geospace-02.pbs'] submit_all_jobs_script = geospace_pbs.sh When finished, the script creates the file ``runid.json``, where ``runid`` is the identifying string for your simulation. This file contains a record of all of the parameters used in your simulation. This file can be passed back to ``engage.py`` in a subsequent session to repeat the simulation, and also provides a convenient starting point for minor tweaks to your simulation parameters. There are several types files created for each of the jobs, including: * ``*.pbs`` These are the PBS scripts that will be submitted to the job scheduler to run the segments of the simulation. * ``*.xml`` These are the XML files that contain the parameters for GAMERA and RAIJU of the segment. * ``*.inp`` These are the namelist files that contain parameters for TIE-GCM of the segment. * ``*.json`` These are the JSON files that contain the parameters for the simulation. They are generated by the ``engage.py`` script with all the parameters required to run the simulation. The run is divided into segments: * ``geospace-SPINUP.*`` This segment runs the GAMERA model to create the initial conditions for the simulation. It is run first, and its output is used by the next segment. * ``geospace-WARMUP-**.*`` These segments runs the GAMERA RAIJU model to "warm up" for for the coupled model execution. The ``-01``, ``-02``, etc. suffixes indicate the segment number, and the segments are run in order. * ``tiegcm_standalone-**.*`` This segment runs the TIE-GCM model to create the initial conditions for the coupled model. The ``-01`` to ``-02``, etc. suffixes indicate the segment number, and the segments are run in order. * ``geospace-**.*`` These segments runs the GTR coupled modele. The ``-01``, ``-02``, etc. suffixes indicate the segment number, and the segments are run in order. This image shows how the segments are run in order: .. image:: ../running/GTRSegment.png Additional parameters in ``INTERMEDIATE`` and ``EXPERT`` mode ------------------------------------------------------------- Many more parameters are available in ``INTERMEDIATE`` and ``EXPERT`` modes. These parameters are documented in the file ``option_descriptions.json``, which is stored in the same directory as the ``engage.py`` script. Using JSON files for ``engage.py`` ------------------------------------------------------------- The ``engage.py`` script can also be run in a non-interactive mode, where it reads a JSON file containing the parameters for the simulation. This allows you to automate the process of running the simulation, and to easily repeat the simulation with the same parameters. The ``engage.py`` script requires three JSON files to be specified: * ``engage_options_path`` This is the path to the JSON file containing the parameters for the ``engage.py`` script. It contains the parameters that are specific to the ``engage.py`` script, such as the run ID, start and stop dates, and so on. * ``makeitso_options_path`` This is the path to the JSON file containing the parameters for the ``makeitso.py`` script. It contains the parameters that are specific to the ``makeitso.py`` script, such as the GAMERA grid type, segment length, and so on. * ``tiegcm_options_path`` This is the path to the JSON file containing the parameters for the ``tiegcmrun`` script. It contains the parameters that are specific to the TIE-GCM simulation, such as the source file, F10.7 flux level, and so on. To run the ``engage.py`` script in non-interactive mode, you can use the following command: .. code-block:: bash engage.py --engage_options_path /path/to/engage_input.json --makeitso_options_path /path/to/makeitso_input.json --tiegcm_options_path /path/to/tiegcm_input.json Here are templates for the JSON files: - Derecho: - :download:`engage_input.json ` - :download:`makeitso_input.json ` - :download:`tiegcm_input.json ` - aitken: - :download:`engage_input.json ` - :download:`makeitso_input.json ` - :download:`tiegcm_input.json ` These JSON files can be used as a starting point for your own simulations. You will need to modify certain parameters in them: - engage_input.json: - start_date: The start date of your simulation. - stop_date: The stop date of your simulation. - segment_duration: The duration of each segment in simulated seconds. - gamera_grid_type: The GAMERA grid type to use (D, Q, O, or H). - kaiju_install_directory: The path to your ``kaiju`` installation directory. - kaiju_build_directory: The path to your ``kaiju`` build directory. - makeitso_input.json: - Automcatically generated by the ``engage.py`` script, but you can modify the parameters if needed. - tiegcm_input.json: - modeldir: The path to your TIE-GCM repository. - tgcmdata: The path to your TIE-GCM data directory. - modelexe: The path to the TIE-GCM standalone executable. - coupled_modelexe: The path to the TIE-GCM coupled executable. - solar_flux_level: The F10.7 flux level to use for the TIE-GCM source file in spin-up period (low, medium, or high). - SECFLDS: The secondary output fields to include in the TIE-GCM output. - Automcatically generated by the ``engage.py`` script, but you can modify the parameters if needed.
