Hello, WRF Forums!
I’ve been using convert_geotiff to generate binary input files, and I’ve run into an odd issue. WRF doesn’t seem to recognize my defined missing value of -32768 — it’s converting this negative value to positive 32768 instead. This ends up creating spurious anomalous values across all ocean grid cells.

Here’s the command I used:
convert_geotiff -w 2 -t 1500 -u "meters MSL" -d "3s topography" -b 0 -m -32768 strm3s.tif
I’ve also attached index for reference.
