SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires oggm, numpy, xarray, geopandas, shapely, rasterio, matplotlib, pandas, netCDF4.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides an autonomous, end-to-end knowledge infrastructure for running the Open Global Glacier Model (OGGM) in conjunction with HydroCraft's VIC hydrological framework, enabling repeatable glacier simulations and coupled cryospheric-hydrological analyses.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • End-to-end OGGM workflow orchestration (inventory, preprocessing, climate processing, calibration, simulation) for glacier basins.
  • VIC coupling: convert glacier melt to VIC-ready inputs and manage double-counting corrections.
  • Support for CMIP6 climate projections and baseline climate data with geodetic calibration references.
  • Reproducible, YAML-driven knowledge infrastructure that codifies common pitfalls and error handling.

Quick Start

Initialize the six-stage OGGM workflow for a basin and run the VIC-coupled glacier simulation.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate OGGM glacier modeling and VIC coupling for hydrological basins?▼

You can automate OGGM glacier modeling and VIC coupling by running a six-stage YAML-driven pipeline that handles inventory, preprocessing, climate processing, calibration, and simulation for glacierized basins.

What is the process for converting glacier melt into VIC-ready inputs?▼

The process for converting glacier melt into VIC-ready inputs involves using the OGGM workflow infrastructure to generate melt data and apply double-counting corrections for accurate VIC hydrological framework integration.

Do I need preprocessed GDirs from Bremen to run OGGM climate projections?▼

Yes, you need preprocessed GDirs from Bremen, RGI v6, OGGM 1.6.x, Python >=3.9 and <3.12, and numpy <2.0 to run CMIP6 climate projections and baseline climate data with geodetic calibration.

Can I use CMIP6 climate projections with OGGM for glacierized basin simulations?▼

Yes, you can use CMIP6 climate projections with OGGM for glacierized basin simulations, applying baseline climate data and geodetic calibration references to ensure accurate cryospheric-hydrological analyses.

Why does my OGGM VIC coupling pipeline fail during preprocessing?▼

Your OGGM VIC coupling pipeline may fail during preprocessing if dependencies are mismatched; it strictly requires OGGM 1.6.x, Python >=3.9 and <3.12, numpy <2.0, and preprocessed GDirs from Bremen.
