bad soil moisture

@Ming Chen @kwerner i opened this issue a while ago, it is still unresolved. Do you think there is some solution, or it is a problem in the ERA5 data or WPS itself and have to live with this? Please advise.
 
Hi Kwerner,
I did exactly what you said as follows,

1. Ungribbed both pressure level and surface data together.
2. removed LADSEA from Vtable.ECMWF
3. Made sure ERA5_INVARIANT is in the working directory
3. Added the following line in the &metgrid
constants_name = 'ERA5_INVARIANT'
4. ran metgrid.exe

Following is the error that metgrid.exe produced on the very first time interval.
(base) bak8122@login1:/scratch/bak8122/wrf-model-system/WPS$ ./metgrid.exe
Processing domain 1 of 2
ERA5_INVARIANT

FILE

ERROR: Cannot combine time-independent data with time-dependent data for field LANDSEA.mask
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
MPI_ABORT was invoked on rank 0 in communicator MPI_COMM_WORLD
with errorcode 0.

NOTE: invoking MPI_ABORT causes Open MPI to kill all MPI processes.
You may or may not see output from other processes, depending on
exactly when Open MPI kills them.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

If i comment out constants_name = 'ERA5_INVARIANT'
then everything goes normal.

Please advise,

Thanks
Basit
I think Ming means that you remove the Landsea in Vtable first and then ungrib. I tried removing LANDSEA in Vtable, Ungrib and then Metgrid, it worked.
