I hope to perform a hot start from a certain point before the model crash, but this brings up several questions.
In my restart file, I noticed there are multiple ocean_time entries, and each ocean_time appears to contain two sets of data. Does this mean I can restart the model directly from a single ...

Re: Ran into an issue:IEEE_INVALID_FLAG, IEEE_DIVIDE_BY_ZERO
My model has encountered a new problem—it blew up after running for over nine months.

Re: Ran into an issue:IEEE_INVALID_FLAG, IEEE_DIVIDE_BY_ZERO
I suggest you try setting h = 10 where mask_rho = 0 and #undef WET_DRY. You have very small (10^-4) values of h in the land that might cause trouble.
I notice that your land/sea mask is such that the Malaysia Peninsula connects to the southern boundary. The Singapore Strait is closed.
Thank ...

Re: Ran into an issue:IEEE_INVALID_FLAG, IEEE_DIVIDE_BY_ZERO
Sadly, I tried modifying my grid file and the h file today, and also made corresponding changes to other related files. However, the error still hasn't gone away. That said, I believe the cause of the error lies within the grid. This is my grid file—hopefully the issue can be identified.

Re: Ran into an issue:IEEE_INVALID_FLAG, IEEE_DIVIDE_BY_ZERO
Estimated maximum CFL values U∆t/∆x for u,v,w velocity are reported in the log as Cu,Cv,Cw. At the start of your run,
Cv = NaN so you have v velocity values that are NaN (in your initial conditions) which via continuity equation make w also NaN. You
cannot have NaN values in initial (or boundary ...

Hi everyone, after some time, I'm back with a question.

The residual current is inconsistent after adding the tide
I added tides to my model. The tide data comes from TPXO9_v5, and I used otps2frc(https://github.com/NakamuraTakashi/ROMS_prep/blob/master/OTPS/mfile/otps2frc_wrapper_tpxo9_atlas30.m) to generate the NETCDF file.
