#
# This script runs one subseasonal forecast 
# It performs the following tasks for a given date, ensemble number and queue:
#    runs setup utility
#    checks for IC to be available
#    places IC to run directory
#    For ensemble members 2,3,4 it generates perturbations
#
##########################################################################################
# INPUT:
#  icdate	initial date of the forecast (YYYYMMDD)
#  ENSM		ensemble number (2:5), number 1 is reserved for 9-month duration forecast
#  doS2S        choice of queue (0-use gmaofcst queue ; 1-use s2s preops queue; 2-use gmaodev queue)
#
# PREREQUISITES:
# 1) The environmental variable GEOSS2S is set to:
# /discover/nobackup/projects/gmao/m2oasf/aogcm/g5fcst/forecast/production/geos-s2s
# 2) Directories $GEOSS2S/util and $GEOSS2S/util/submitted are required
# 3) Files required to be in $GEOSS2S/util are:
#    subXsubmit_forecast.sh 
#    subXdo_one_forecast.sh
#    monitor_subXensX.sh
#    fvcore_pert.sh 
#    moist_pert.sh
#    perturb_atm.sh
# 
# $GEOSS2S/util is the location of the run to be submitted 
# $GEOSS2S/runh is the home directory of the run (will be generated by setup)
# $GEOSS2S/runx is the work directory of the run (will be generated by setup)
# $ARCHIVE/GEOS_S2S is the archive directory of the run
