[MITgcm-support] input variables not recognised

[Elja Huibregtse]

Hi Martin,

Thank you for your reply. This part works fine, now. Unfortunately, the model doesn't work.

I would like to add seaice to the tutorial_global_oce_latlon example. Therefore, I added the packages exf, cal, diagnostics and seaice to packages.conf. (In addition, I switched the package ptracers off, because I don't need that package.)
Furthermore, I added several data.* files to the directory 'input', and attached some of them to this e-mail, too.

Running the model results in this error:
(PID.TID 0000.0001) *** ERROR *** SEAICE_CHECK: Need T,S forcing out of AB (tracForcingOutAB=1)

While looking in the code, I found that in case of seaice, forcing_In_AB needs to be false, which results in tracForcingOutAB=1. 

Do you know what I have to change to make this model work?
Thank you very much in advance.

Elja

Hi Elja,

in order to use this feature (on-the-fly interpolation from a regular  
lat-lon grid as specified by *_lon0/*_lon_inc/*_lat/*_lat_inc etc),  
you need to define the corresponding flag in EXF_OPTIONS.h:
#define USE_EXF_INTERPOLATION

If your forcing fields are already available (interpolated) exactly  
on your model grid, then all of this is not necessary and you can  
leave EXF_NML_04 empty (for some reason (adjoint?), it still needs to  
be in data.exf as an empty name list).
