These data files show a comparison of the Global Ionosphere Thermosphere Model (GITM)
simulations when two different lower boundary conditions are used.

gitm_routines.py :  Routine to read in a GITM binary file

Description about the directories :

run_msis_Jan_2010 : GITM run with MSIS lower boundary condition for atomic oxygen.
run_waccm_Jan_2010 :  GITM run with WACCM-X lower boundary condition for atomic oxygen.
run_msis_June_2010 : Same as above, but for June
run_waccm_June_2010 : Same as above, but for June

All other major species are kept constant at the lower boundary.

waccm_lower_boundary_files : Netcdf files containing WACCM-X atomic oxygen, interpolated
at 95 km, 97.5 km and 100 km.
run_msis_Jan_2010_USR_files :  GITM binary files which contain diagnostic parameters.
run_waccm_Jan_2010_USR_files :  Same as above, but for WACCM-X lower boundary condition
