Hi, all users! Please, help me!
We using NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis data (ds090.0) for calculated with WRF model. Step with WPS is Ok. But when we running real. exe for DOMAIN1 (area Ukraine), we received some mistakes.

Domain 1: Current date being processed: 1986-04-26_00:00:00.0000, which is loop # 1 out of 3
configflags%julyr, %julday, %gmt: 1986 116 0.00000000
metgrid input_wrf.F first_date_input = 1986-04-26_00:00:00
metgrid input_wrf.F first_date_nml = 1986-04-26_00:00:00
d01 1986-04-26_00:00:00 Timing for input 0 s.
Max map factor in domain 1 = 2.01. Scale the dt in the model accordingly.
Missing surface temp, replaced with closest level, use_surface set to false.
Missing surface RH, replaced with closest level, use_surface set to false.
Missing surface u wind, replaced with closest level, use_surface set to false.
Missing surface v wind, replaced with closest level, use_surface set to false.

Hi,

Can you let me know which version of WRF this is, and send your namelist.input file, along with your full error log file? Thanks.
 
Hi!
Thanks for replying and attention.
I am sending the necessary files: namelist.input and output file with errors (real.txt).

Many thanks and best regards, Lev Tatiana

Hi,

It looks like you have a value of 0 for SST and SKINTEMP for all points. Do you have SST/SKINTEMP in your input files you used during the ungrib/metgrid process?
 
Hi!
I using data from ds090.0 (reanalysis data) and Vtable.CFSR_press_pgbh06. I haven't SST/SKINTEMP in input files.
The programs ungrib and metgrid running are successfully. Problem with real.exe and all information about problems in real.txt file:
d01 1986-04-26_00:00:00 flag value of flag_qnwfa is 0
d01 1986-04-26_00:00:00 No average surface temperature for use with inland lakes
d01 1986-04-26_00:00:00 forcing artificial silty clay loam at 1 points, out of 9660
LAND CHANGE = 0
WATER CHANGE = 0
error in the grid%tsk

Thanks, Tatiana
 
Hi Tatiana,
Regardless of the fact that ungrib and metgrid ran successfully, you will still need either Skin Temperature or SST fields as input for the model. Not having one of those is very likely the cause for the error you are getting when running real.exe. Here is a list of the mandatory (and a few recommended) fields:

3D Data (e.g., data on pressure levels):
Temperature
U and V Components of Wind
Geopotential Height
Relative Humidity
(the code can calculate RH if specific humidity is available; this is controlled in the Vtable)

2D Data:
Surface Pressure
Mean Sea Level Pressure
Skin Temperature/SST
2-meter Temperature
2-meter Relative or Specific Humidity
10-meter U and V Components of Wind
Soil Data (Temp and Moisture), and Soil Height

Recommended Fields:
LANDSEA Mask
Water Equivalent Snow Depth
SEAICE
