    Converting Geotiff Based Land Use Data into WRF Available One

    Hi! I am confusing with the land use category mapping with the Geotiff data from jaxa. My original Geotiff data is from here. https://www.eorc.jaxa.jp/ALOS/en/dataset/lulc/lulc_v2312_e.htm (Coordinate system and category numbers are listed in this page. Notice the category order is not followed...

    NUDAPT vs UT-Globus Distribution of Building Heights UCP

    I was using NUDAPT dataset provided on the WPS_GEOG data website for running BEPBEM WRF simulations. I later developed my own set of UCPs required from the explicit building footprints and building heights data we had. I followed some of the older documentations of NUDAPT...

    LCC proyection, chosing truelat 1 y truelat 2

    Dear all, is there a guideline or "best practices manual" for choosing the values of truelat1 and truelat2 when using an LCC (Lambert Conformal Conic) coordinate system? For context, I am working with four nested domains with resolutions of 27 km, 9 km, 3 km, and 1 km. The finest domain...

    New twist on the "program wrf: error opening wrfinput_d01 for reading ierr= -1021" real.exe error

    Hi all, There have a few posts on this issue, but I'm in the unusual position that it seems to have been triggered by changing the land-cover specification. I've been using the same namelist.wps and namelist.input, but between yesterday and today I modified the GEOGRID.TBL file to match...

    Adding outer domain to pre-existing 2-domain configuration

    I am working on a project that is running multiple high-resolution (3 km) simulations of events spanning the entire 20-th and 21-st centuries. We have completed all but one of our events after 1940 (~25 events total) using ERA5 as our forcing dataset with a 9-3 km two-domain nesting setup. We...

    Problems in LU_INDEX in nested domain

    Hello! I'm running a simulation using a namelist provided during a wrf tutorial (attached below) which uses the NLCD dataset for static data. Everything seems to be ok for the first domain, while the second domain shows some problems with the LU_INDEX variable (see the image below). I noticed...

    WRF-Fire fuel and topographic data not processed by geogrid.exe

    Hello! I'm running WRF-Fire for the first time so I'm following the tutorials on youtube. I'm stuck at the geogrid step because I see that geogrid runs successfully but does not processes NFUEL_CAT and ZSF. I followed carefully the instructions of the tutorial so I can't understand where is the...

    Using geogrid.exe for Antarctica (Antartica), help with DEM data

    Good morning from Chile. I would like your assistance with this; using WPS4.1; I'm a computer specialist, and not an Earth-science minor/major, so I'm a bit in the dark regarding this. We are trying ro create a set of nested domains for Antarctic continent (Antarctica/Antarctica); I'm also...

    WRF error: too many input landuse types

    Hello everyone, I'm currently encountering an issue while running WRF version 4.5. The error message I receive is as follows: -------------- FATAL CALLED --------------- FATAL CALLED FROM FILE: <stdin> LINE: 2419 Warning: too many input landuse types I replaced the original land use data in...

    Is it recommended to use the same spatial resolution for all surface parameters?

    Dear users, The WRF model has 30 arc-seconds (~900 meters) as the higher spatial resolution by default. I read many papers where authors changed the topography (HGT) to a higher resolution (e.g. 90 meters). I also managed to change it. But now I have a question. The another surface parameters...

    Urban canopy parameters ingestion into WPS/ WRF

    I am trying to ingest city specific urban canopy parameters that I developed using buildings heights and footprints data. The UCPs I built were: 1) Mean Building Height, 2) Distribution of building heights for 5m bins, 3) Area weighted mean building height, 4) Standard deviation of building...

    How do I get the LCZ part of CGLC_MODIS_LCZ_global to work?

    I am not sure why, but when I try using the above dataset and run geogrid.exe the result is pure MODIS- no LCZ categories at all. The paper on the dataset says that the GEOGRID.TBL entry needs to have higher priority than default MODIS, but if the priority is different in the GEOGRID.TBL.ARW_LCZ...

    A question about GEOGRID

    Hello I am building a grid to be run by WRFHYDRO. I manage to prorperly select the domain (~10km * 20 km) and the resolution (500 m) when I look at the produced coordinates (long_M and LAT_M) I see that the intervals are not exactly equal and there is some kind of periodicity in the cell size...

    geogrid.exe stops without error with my own binary file

    Hi, all I'm trying to replace the MODIS land cover data with the high resolution data which has shape format. I changed this file with QGIS and made binary file with write_geogrid.c code which is in the WPS/geogrid/src directory. I moved this binary file into the GEOG directory to run geogrid. I...

    (Resolved) Why high-resolution terrain data does not match actual altitude?

    Hi, I have now made a three-layer nested domains simulation with a ratio of 1:3:3, the grid accuracy of the finest nested area is 1km, and then the longitude and latitude of my target site is very close to one of the grid points in the 3rd nested domain. The distance is only about ten meters...

    Change in Mandatory Static Data

    Hello WRF community, I am running a simulation with two domains: d01 with 9km resolution and d02 with 3km. In the near future I will add a d03 with 1km resolution. Previous studies in the region of my domain show that changing the default WPS topography to ASTER with a resolution of 1s (90...

    Nested and Coarse domain WRF Domain Wizard

    Hi everyone, first of all I hope that you are well, continuing, I am creating a coarse domain of 9km of resolution and a nested domain with 3 km resolution with the WRF Domain Wizard to make a new domain for WRF-NMM model, the doubt that i have is that, is there a way to see the coordinate...
