Hello,

I am using automatic moving nests to follow a TC vortex and would like to know more about the algorithm used by WRF to track a TC vortex. Where should I look for the relevant code?

Thanks!

Hi,
I believe the code you are interested in is found in
wrf/dyn_em/module_initialize_tropical_cyclone.F - this initializes the domains
wrf/share/mediation_nest_move.F - I believe this holds the bulk of the moving nest algorithms.
