input/observations in decimal seconds #63
Description
Hi Karsten and Jorn,
for high-resolution process simulations we need to prescribe forcing in timesteps smaller than integer seconds. This requires modified time routines. What do you prefer: i) use of float fsecondsofday , or ii) additional argument microseconds?
Thanks and Cheers, Knut

what observations/forcing are provided with with a resolution higher than 1 second?

The present date/time routines in GOTM I made 25 years ago and I don't know if they should be kept.
An additional option would be to change the meaning of secs to be microseconds (or nano, pico).
There is a potential good replacement - https://github.com/wavebitscientific/datetime-fortran. It will require some work to make a replacement.
