Paul,
I was wondering if there is a code that I can input into SAM or a way to enter Albedo values in smaller increments than monthly value? When I run a parametric sweep for max current, I use the whether file albedo to start out. If I see a large number of Albedo/snow events occurring I will then go in and adjust all high Albedo month to 0.9 and the other months to 0.3 to add a little more uniformity and conservancy to my maximum current analysis.
However, what I've noticed time and again is that both April and November only have high albedos for about half of the month, I would like to be able to adjust November and April so that SAM applies different Albedos for the first and second half of the month. The only way that I've found to get around this is to take the non-adjusted albedo and merge it with the adjusted albedo output in order to create a more accurate ampacity run.
Thanks,
