Greetings friends. I have been running a series of long-term WRF simulations (40 years) with some topographic adjustments. I have tested the most extreme versions of my topographic adjustments to ensure that they don't cause the model to blow up and am now working on intermediate topographic adjustments (intermediate between the extreme test cases and standard control topography). My basic workflow is functional but has a few areas of inefficiency that I would like to resolve given the large number of simulations we still plan to run. The basic structure is this:
I am unsure if this is a WRF knowledge question (i.e. if there is a setting in WRF that will allow it to do this automatically) or if this is a script-writing question (i.e. if someone knows how to write a script or set of scripts that can handle this sort of automatic resubmission).
I would appreciate any insight.
- On derecho, set up a WRF and WPS directory structure that can access my adjusted topographic boundary conditions.
- Set up namelist.wps to run for the first 10 years of my simulation (i.e. 1980-01-01 to 1990-01-01).
- Run geogrid.exe
- link existing set of FILE:* inputs since all simulations have the same external forcing (this bypasses the ungrib step)
- run metgrid & link the resulting met_em* files to the WRF subdirectory
- Ensure that the WRF namelist.input is set up for the same 10 year time series
- Run real, creating the wrfbdy, wrfinput, and wrflowinp files
- Run wrf
I am unsure if this is a WRF knowledge question (i.e. if there is a setting in WRF that will allow it to do this automatically) or if this is a script-writing question (i.e. if someone knows how to write a script or set of scripts that can handle this sort of automatic resubmission).
