Need help with geogrid .

[Dipson11]

Hello I am trying to set a domain using LCZ + Default. I want to use WRF urban for a city. As per the instructions the minimum domain size should be 100 * 100 and I set up accordingly. But, when I use ncview geo_em.d03.nc, it shows completely null value for 3d variable landusef , is it not supposed to show the land category from CGLS?. In the picture attached below I have selcted land_cat as 53, since LCZ is represented from 51 to 61. Is it only visible after implementation of (use_wudapt_lcz=1).??
I have attached the picture.
&geogrid
parent_id = 1, 1, 2,
parent_grid_ratio = 1, 3, 5,
i_parent_start = 1, 108, 148,
j_parent_start = 1, 137, 144,
e_we = 318, 319, 101,
e_sn = 367, 247, 101,
geog_data_res = 'cglc_modis_lcz+default','cglc_modis_lcz+default','cglc_modis_lcz+default',
dx = 2000,
dy = 2000,
map_proj = 'lambert',
ref_lat = 27.00,
ref_lon = 85.321,
truelat1 = 28.150,
truelat2 = 28.150,
stand_lon = 85.321,
geog_data_path = '/home/bdipson/WRF/WPS-4.5/NEW_GEOG/WPS_GEOG_HIGH_RES/',
/

I doubt my parameters are wrong for geogrid, I tried to make the innermost domain atlest 100*100 thats why I had to choose 2km resolution for outer-domain , in such way I can crop only the city in my innermost domain for analysis. Also How old is the static data for Albedo12M, greenfrac while using geog_data res='cglc_modis_lcz + default'?

How about the values in D01 and D02? Do they look normal?

Hi chen, The values indeed look abnormal. Since my city is small maximum 50km * 50km , I wanted to keep my domain size 100 * 100 ,which is said to be minimum in the instruction. I have attached a new namelist.wps that I made with the picture showing 55th category of geo_em.d03.nc. is this normal? Maybe, I will see in the results after I turnuse_wudapt_lcz=1. I am doing my analysis for urban heat island. I have a sample of namelist.input, it would mean alot if you could give it a look (just at the module numbers , I will fix the time) . Could you suggest me about the variables that I would take into account for the analysis related to urban heating. I am new to wrf.

Thank you very much.
