This tool takes the raw Land Use Harmonization, or LUH2, data files as input and prepares them for use with FATES. The tool concatenates the various raw data sets into a single file and provides the ability to regrid the source data resolution to a target resolution that the user designates. The output data is then usable by FATES, mediated through a host land model (currently either CTSM or E3SM).

Usage

From the command line, call fates-landusedata -h for help with using the tool subcommands and arguments. See also the source repository README.
