TC-Stat: Run on TC-Pairs output

Now, we will run a summary job using TC-Stat on the command line using the following command:

tc_stat \

-job summary -lookin ../tc_pairs/tc_pairs.tcst \

-amodel HWRF,GFDL \

-by LEAD,AMODEL \

-column TK_ERR \

-event_equal TRUE \

-out tc_stat_summary.tcst

Open up the file tc_stat_summary.tcst. Notice this output is much different from the filter jobs.

vi tc_stat_summary.tcst

The track data is event equalized for the HWRF and GFDL models, and summary statistics are produced for the TK_ERR column for each model by lead time.
