====== Main File Surface/Flux (_FLX_) ====== This section describes the different data field stored in the main file for the surface and fluxes at the surface (..._FLX_...).\\ This file is only two-dimensional with a constant z=0. The data stored in the .EDT files are in binary format and can be extracted using LEONARDO or XTract. ^FIELD ^UNIT ^MEANING ^ |z_topo |m |Absolute Height of Model Ground Surface (always 0 in recent version)| |T Surface |K |Ground Surface Temperature| |T Surface Diff |K |Difference of Ground Surface to Reference Surface| |T Surface Change |K/h |Change of Ground Surface Temperature| |q Surface |g/kg |Specific Humidity of Surface (availabe vapour)| |uv Above Surface |m/s |Wind Speed at the First Grid Level above Ground Surface| |Sensible Heat Flux |W/m² |Sensible Heat Flux into the Air (+: towards air)| |Exchange Coef.
