IO Help for infraFDTD Model

Description

Facilitates the generation of input files for infraFDTD and processes snapshot output. infraFDTD is a finite-difference model written by Keehoon Kim for simulating infrasound that considers topography and a 1-D atmosphere (see Kim et al., 2015 <doi:10.1002/2015GL064466>).
