hi Zhangchi
you can use calmet2netcf to convert CALMET.DAT in a netcd file

or you can use PRTMET Meteorological Display Program

I have posted a CMET.INP and WRFoutputs related problem today. Since you guys used CALWRF-generated WRF files as inputs for the CALMET, can you help me out with the following questions please?
1- Can we run the CALMET using just a GEO.DAT and a WRF-converted 3D.DAT file?
2- I succesfully executed CALWRF, generating 2d and 3d met fields. Where and how do we use the 2D file in CMET.INP file?
3- Can the 2D WRF-converted file be used as surface data?
4- Have you guys used just a WRF file (and the geo.dat ofcourse) to run CALMET sucessfully?
5-if so, could you send me your own CMET.INP so that I can modify my own?

I apreciate your help.
Thanks
