运行WPS遇到的问题及解决办法

http://www2.mmm.ucar.edu/wrf/OnLineTutorial/Class/cases/find_the_bugs.php#

For this case we are going to use the default case you have been using, but now the instructions below contain BUGS. 
It is your task to find and correct them.

To make this exercise work correctly, it is best to start from new clean code, get the following tar file  /wrfhelp/SOURCE_CODE/WRFV3_bugs.TAR.gz

Once you have untarred this file, you will have the following new directory, Find_the_Bugs, which will contain directories WPS and WRFV3. For this exercise, work in these directories.

 

1. Set-up and Run geogrid

• Make sure you are in the WPS directory.   
    
   
• We have provided you with a namelist, so don‘t edit anything, simply start running the code. 
   
   
• Run geogrid.exe:
    
       ./geogrid.exe
   
   
• Since a number of errors were built in, let‘s work through them one by one. 
  If you have trouble working out the error, mouse over the link to find the solution.
  After you have a fix for the problem - run geogrid.exe again to look for the next one.
   
  1. ERROR: For nest 2, (e_we-s_we+1) must be one greater than an interger multiple of the parent_grid_ratio of 3. 
     Hint: This has to do with domain 2‘s dimension sizes. 
     See if you can correct this, or else see the answer here. 
      
  2. ERROR: Could not open /mmm/users/wrfhelp/WPS_GEOG/topo_10m/index
     Hint: Where are your static data located? 
     See if you can correct this, or else find the solution here. 
     
     
     All fixed - let‘s move on to ungrib.

 

2. Set-up and Run ungrib

Degrib and reformat meteorological data from another model.
 

 

For this Practical Case we are going to use data from the Severe Snow Storm in Colorado Case.
Case dates are 2006-12-19_12 to 2006-12-20_12, and data are available 6-hourly.

 

 

So let‘s run ungrib:
  
     ./ungrib.exe

You should see the following problems. See if you can figure them out before getting the solution:

1. ERROR: edition_num: unable to open GRIBFILE.AAA
   Hint: How does ungrib know which data to use? 
   Solution
   
   
2. ***** ERROR in Subroutine PARSE_TABLE: 
   Problem opening file Vtable. 
   File ‘‘Vtable‘‘ does not exist. 
   ERROR: ***** Stopping in Subroutine PARSE_TABLE
   Hint: Is there a Vtable available for ungrib to use? 
   Solution
   
   
3. ERROR: Data not found: 2007-09-15_00:00:00.0000
   Hint: Look in the directory /wrfhelp/DATA/Colorado to see at which times the data are available. 
   Solution
    

3. Set-up and Run metgrid

Now let‘s us run metgrid:
  
     ./metgrid.exe

You should see the following problems. Fix them one at a time untill metgrid runs successfully:

1. WARNING: Couldn‘t open file NARI:2006-12-19_12 for input. 
   ERROR: The mandatory field TT was not found in any input data.
   Hint: What is the input to metgrid? And what was the output from ungrib? 
   Solution
    
2. Processing domain 2 of 2
   GETH_IDTS: Month of NDATE = 0
   GETH_IDTS: Month of ODATE = 0
   GETH_IDTS: Day of NDATE = 0
   GETH_IDTS: Day of ODATE = 0
   ERROR: Screwy NDATE: 0000-00-00_00:00:00
   Hint: What were domain 2‘s dates set too? 
   Solution

Success - let‘s move on to the WRF model
 

Set-up WRF

• Make sure you are in the WRFV3/test/em_real directory.    
   
   
• As we are looking for bugs simply start by running real.exe
           mpirun -np 1  real.exe
  

  You should see the following problems in your ‘rsl.error.0000‘ file. Fix them one at a time untill real runs successfully:

  1. -------------- FATAL CALLED --------------- 
     FATAL CALLED FROM FILE: LINE: 406 
     error opening met_em.d01.2000-01-24_12:00:00.nc for input; bad date in namelist or file not in directory 
     -------------------------------------------
     Hint: met_em.d01.2000-01-24_12:00:00.nc? 
     Solution
      
  2. -------------- FATAL CALLED --------------- 
     FATAL CALLED FROM FILE: LINE: 406 
     error opening met_em.d01.2008-06-23_00:00:00.nc for input; bad date in namelist or file not in directory 
     -------------------------------------------
     Hint: Oops - thought we just fixed this one? But look carefully at the file it is complaining about.
     Solution
      
  3. ----------------- ERROR -------------------
     namelist : num_metgrid_soil_levels = 2
     input files : NUM_METGRID_SOIL_LEVELS = 4 (from met_em files).
     -------------- FATAL CALLED ---------------
     FATAL CALLED FROM FILE: <stdin> LINE: 608
     Mismatch between namelist and global attribute NUM_METGRID_SOIL_LEVELS
     -------------------------------------------
     Hint: How many soil levels are coming from the met_em files? 
     Solution
      
  4. -------------- FATAL CALLED ---------------
     FATAL CALLED FROM FILE: <stdin> LINE: 727
     input_wrf.F: SIZE MISMATCH: namelist ide,jde,num_metgrid_levels= 74 61 27 ; input data ide,jde,num_metgrid_levels= 75 70 40 
     -------------------------------------------
     Hint: Check the dimension sizes set in the WPS namelist and met_em files. 
     Solution

 
 That‘s ALL Folks, both real and wrf should now run successfully.
 
 

You can now continue to run another practical example.
