------ PLEASE READ! ------


(A) Setup:

Recommended: Python 3.7 or higher

Required Modules:

numpy 1.19.4
matplotlib 3.3.2
astropy 4.1
netcdf4 1.3.3
cdsapi 0.2.7 (*)
dask 2.20
openpyxl 3.0.4
pyfiglet 0.8


Alternatively, use ANACONDA and the environment(*.yml)-file in this repository.

(*) for proper setup of CDS API please refer to: https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/api-how-to (in any case!)



(B) User Input:

1. Please define all input parameters under input/user_input.py

2. Script "DataRequest.py" needs to be run prior to generate netCDF-datafile for atmospheric data! 
   Please ensure sufficient disk space (depending on the volume of atmospheric data up to > 100 GB!)



(C) PC Specifications:

The PC running BASTET should be sufficiently powerful and have enough data storage capacity.

The standard code for BASTET has been tested on a PC with 64 GB RAM.

For PCs with less than that (but not under 16 GB!) the Low-RAM-Version is needed.
