RTHSHTEN variable not found even though iofields_filename set in namelist.input

[a8626086s]

Hi everyone,
I’m trying to include several atmospheric heating rate variables in my WRF-SLUCM-v4.4.1 simulation output. To do this, I created a text file and added the following content:

+:h:0:h_diabatic,h_diabatic
+:h:0:RTHBLTEN,RTHBLTEN
+:h:0:RTHRATEN,RTHRATEN
+:h:0:RTHSHTEN,RTHSHTEN
+:h:0:RTHCUTEN,RTHCUTEN
+:h:0:RTHNDGDTEN,RTHNDGDTEN

I then specified the file in namelist.input under iofields_filename, with ignore_iofields_warning = .true.. Five of these variables were successfully written into the wrfout* files, but RTHSHTEN did not appear.
I’ve attached my namelist.input file for reference. Any help is appreciated!

Please turn on shallow convection scheme, then try again.

Please turn on shallow convection scheme, then try again.

Thank you very much

sorry to bother you, i'm calculating diabatic heating terms, and i see your previous reply about this topic, like:
"The diabatic heating terms include the following:
"h_diabatic": this is from microphsics scheme
"RTHCUTEN": this is from cumulus scheme
"RTHSHTEN": this is from shallow convection
"RTHRATEN": this is from radaition
"RTHBLTEN": this is from boundary layer
The sum of the above terms is the total tendency"
RTHSHTEN appears in wrfout files only when turn on shallow convection schemes.

i see in users guide "ishallow" option only works with only two cu_physics


my puzzle is :
when i set cu_physics = 3 or 5 and turn on ishallow = 1, total diabatic heating tendency = h_diabatic + RTHCUTEN + RTHSHTEN + RTHRATEN + RTHBLTEN
when i set other cu_physics, total diabatic heating tendency = h_diabatic + RTHCUTEN + RTHRATEN + RTHBLTEN, in this case, variable "RTHSHTEN" will not output, i want to know whether I need to calculate the diabatic heating term of the convective process.
No matter which cu_physics scheme is set, the variable "RTHFTEN" will be output. When calculating TOTAL TENDENCY, should this variable be included?

hope for your reply!
