Good morning, I'm running WRF Solar 4.3 and I'm not getting the output for variable FARMS" "W m-2" SWDDIR2 SWDDNI2 SWDDNI2
SWDDIF2 only outputs SWDOWN2 how should I proceed? Thanks

From the namelist info file
radt (max_dom) = 30, ! minutes between radiation physics calls recommend 1 min per km of dx (e.g. 10 for 10 km); use the same value for all nests.

I will say that WRF-Solar I am not super familiar with. The best person who might be able to help is the admins or the project scientist listed on this page

WRF-Solar® Reference Configuration | Research Applications Laboratory

ral.ucar.edu ral.ucar.edu

However, I also noticed that you are mixing physics schemes on your different domains. In my experience when running wrf-chem or wrf by itself that sometimes leads to issues when the schemes aren't matching. Not sure if this is applicable to Solar.

I would try the radt change first and see what happens.

Also in the WRF folder there is a file called README.namelist located in the /run folder. That can also help with the physics package descriptions.

Sorry I can't be of much more help.
 
Please take a look at Registry.EM_COMMON, and look at the variables you want to output, for example swddif2, you can find the lines like:
state real swddif2 ij misc 1 - rd "SWDDIF2" "Shortwave surface downward diffuse irradiance from FARMS" "W m-2" ""

Please change the oin eta:
state real swddif2 ij misc 1 - rhd "SWDDIF2" "Shortwave surface downward diffuse irradiance from FARMS" "W m-2" ""

And do the same change for other variables.

Then please recompile the code by ./clean -a , ./configure and ./compile eem_real

I suppose you should have those variables in your output. Please let me know if you still have any issue.
