For the purpose of this step-by-step guide, we will walk through each step using an example of regenerating the ne4 grid that is already currently supported. For a new grid (i.e., ne512), just replace ne4 with the desired grid identifier. This is determined in Step 1 Generate a new "grid" file below, and the rest should follow.

Types of Atmosphere grid metadata files
See CAM-SE Atmosphere Grid Overview (EAM & CAM) for description of the spectral elements, GLL nodes, subcell grid and dual grid.

TempestRemap needs to be built from source from the Github repository. This is straightforward on Cori and Edison. Note that a parallel version of netCDF should be used. This can be accomplished on cori/edison be executing module swap cray-netcdf cray-netcdf-hdf5parallel or by sourcing an env_mach_specific.sh from a working case on the target machine before building. Then,
