can e_we and e_sn be set as decimals

[sd16121]

Dear Colleagues,

I would like to make sure the same simulation area with different dx and dy, which means the different e_we and e_sn.

I plan to set e_we and e_sn as follows:
dx and dy e_we and e_sn
250m 200
500m 100
750m 200/3≈67
1000m 50
1500m 100/3≈33
2000m 25
2500m 20
3000m 50/3≈17

Do you think my setting for resolution 750m, 1500m and 3000m are correct?

Best wishes,
Stella

Dear Colleagues,

If there are anyone who could help with this question? Many thanks.

Stella,
You must use integers for the values of e_we and e_sn. Take a look at this document, which should help to answer some of your questions. You can also always refer to the Registry.EM_COMMON file (wrf/Registry/Registry.EM_COMMON) for what is allowed. For example, if you search for e_we in that file, you will see

rconfig   integer e_we                    namelist,domains      max_domains    32      irh    "e_we"          ""      ""

So you can see that an integer is required.
