I was able to successfully run WRF simulations using a custom land cover dataset, but when looking back at the rsl files, it shows:
INPUT LandUse = "NLCD_KR"
INPUT FILE FOR LANDUSE REACHED END OF FILE
LANDUSE IN INPUT FILE DOES NOT MATCH LUTABLE: TABLE NOT USED
INITIALIZE THREE Noah LSM RELATED TABLES
Skipping over LUTYPE = USGS
Skipping over LUTYPE = MODIFIED_IGBP_MODIS_NOAH
Skipping over LUTYPE = NLCD40
LANDUSE TYPE = NLCD_KR FOUND 33 CATEGORIES
I believe the issue was due to not having the proper mminlu with land cover characteristics in the LANDUSE.TBL file, which is why it says "LANDUSE IN INPUT FILE DOES NOT MATCH LUTABLE". I looked in module_physics_init.F, but I couldn't find what happens when WRF doesn't find the mminlu in the LANDUSE.TBL file. Since the simulation ran successfully, does WRF use default values in this case?
Edit:
I should note that am using Noah for my LSM. I found that LANDUSE.TBL is used by the 5-layer LSM. Does this mean I can disregard the "LANDUSE IN INPUT FILE DOES NOT MATCH LUTABLE: TABLE NOT USED" message?
