[MITgcm-support] EXF & climsst & preciptation files

Hello MITgcm community, any advice on the temperature surface relaxation?
Precipitation file?

When I run an experiment with package EXF = FALSE  so I can run surface
relaxation normally from data it works fine.

          tauThetaClimRelax= 2592000.,
          thetaClimFile='Sea_Surface_Temp.bin',


When I turn EXF = TRUE ; I am forced to move my SST data onto data.exf (as
said in the documentation)

When I declare the file:
           climsstfile  = 'Sea_Surface_Temp.bin',

There is NO problem. But I can clearly see in the output files that the SST
is not doing anything.

When I write a value for the relaxation time

            climsstTauRelax = 2592000 in the data.exf

I get that TEMP is getting out of bounds. AKA: ERROR




For my precipitation file; when I put my 2-D binary file... Na's appear on
the output; unsure if these are related as I am not sure how to create
these files. I have the files created as follows:

fid=fopen('Sea_Surface_Temp.bin','w',ieee); fwrite(fid,sst_new2,prec);
fclose(fid);
fid=fopen('evap_data.bin','w',ieee); fwrite(fid,evap_new2,prec); fclose(fid)

Where unlike the evaporation data which the file is (Nx,Ny,1) the
precipitation and the SST are (Nx,Ny).


Online manual mentions that precipitation is

       Input or input/output field

While evaporation mentions:

      Input, input/output, or output field

Anything to do? I am trying to learn how to read the manual. I also have
spent some time looking online.





Thank you for your help.
