Hi all,
I am a new user of WRF and I am trying to run Version 4.1 for 72 hours over a complex mountainous terrain with steep surface gradients. The horizontal domain used for the simulations is composed of 3 nested domains. The two outer domains have a grid spacing of 9 and 3 km, while simulations in the innermost domain are performed with 1 km resolution. As to the vertical resolution, 66 levels are used. Initial and boundary conditions are supplied by the 6-hourly European Centre for Medium-range Weather Forecasting (ECMWF) ERA5 reanalysis. To model the cloud microphysics I am using the Morrison two-moment scheme (mp_physics = 10), while the short-wave and long-wave radiation are parameterized in the model using the rrtmg scheme (ra_sw/lw_physics = 4). The problem is that the model crashes almost immediately when it calls the LW radiation routine for the 1-km resolution domain. I get the following error message:
d03 2014-01-31_00:03:00 call radiation_driver
d03 2014-01-31_00:03:00 Top of Radiation Driver
d03 2014-01-31_00:03:00 CALL cldfra1
d03 2014-01-31_00:03:00 in rad driver; use BL clouds
d03 2014-01-31_00:03:00 CALL rrtmg_lw
Program received signal SIGSEGV: Segmentation fault - invalid memory reference.
Model and radiation time-steps are pretty small. I did several attempts selecting different combinations of SW and LW radiation schemes but I didn't manage to fix this issue. I also tried to run the same set-up but with 2 nested domains and it works.
I would like to ask if someone has experienced a similar error before. Any ideas or tips on how to resolve this would be great.
I hereby attach the namelist.input and namelist.wps as well as rsl.error.0000 and rsl.out.0000 for your review.
Thank you in advance.
