WRF Chem 4.3.2 & WUDAPT LCZ

Hi..

I’m using the 100 m Global Local Climate Zone (LCZ) dataset in my WRF simulation with three nested domains. Should I get the LCZ data for all three domains, or is it sufficient to get it only for the inner domain?
Hi

Yes, you can choose to activate lcz data only in your innermost domain when you run WPS.

Besides, I have used LCZ for 3, 2 and 1 km of horizontal resolution. I have not tried yet with finer domain resolutions for they entail using LES or specific WRF options that I am not familiar with.

Regards

Héctor
 
Hello
Yes, I did, but I have moved to version 4.5.2 that includes the LCZ map in the WPS system, then I do not have to run W2W whatsoever.

At any rate, you shuld inspect the resulting LULC maps to verify they are fine for your modeling domain, specially for the innermost one,

Okay,Thank you very much for your answer.
I previously attempted to install version 4.4 or higher of WRF, but was prompted to upgrade the gcc version (the Linux system is version 4.8.5). When I installed gcc 11.2.0 in my own directory, I encountered the following issue.
When compiling mpich-4.0.2, this error always occurs. configure: error: Unable to configure with Fortran support because configure could not determine the size of a Fortran INTEGER. Consider setting CROSS_F77_SIZEOF_INTEGER to the length in bytes of a Fortran INTEGER

May I ask if you have ever encountered the above errors? Also, what compiler and version did you use when upgrading to 4.5.2?

Hello

I did not compile the software, the IT people from an HPC did it for me
