Forcing file not read

#1 Unread post by Manel_Grifoll »

Dear/s:

I am runnig an implementation with an unique forcing file, as it is shown below:

netcdf roms_frc {
dimensions:
xi_u = 176 ;
eta_u = 130 ;
xi_v = 177 ;
eta_v = 129 ;
xi_rho = 177 ;
eta_rho = 130 ;
xi_psi = 176 ;
eta_psi = 129 ;
sms_time = 12 ;
shf_time = 12 ;
swf_time = 12 ;
sst_time = 12 ;
srf_time = 12 ;
sss_time = 12 ;
tide_period = 10 ;
variables:
double sms_time(sms_time) ;
sms_time:long_name = "surface momentum stress time" ;
sms_time:units = "days" ;
sms_time:cycle_length = 360. ;
double shf_time(shf_time) ;
shf_time:long_name = "surface heat flux time" ;
shf_time:units = "days" ;
shf_time:cycle_length = 360. ;
double swf_time(swf_time) ;
swf_time:long_name = "surface freshwater flux time" ;
swf_time:units = "days" ;
swf_time:cycle_length = 360. ;
double sst_time(sst_time) ;
sst_time:long_name = "sea surface temperature time" ;
sst_time:units = "days" ;
sst_time:cycle_length = 360. ;
double sss_time(sss_time) ;
sss_time:long_name = "sea surface salinity time" ;
sss_time:units = "days" ;
sss_time:cycle_length = 360. ;
double srf_time(srf_time) ;
srf_time:long_name = "solar shortwave radiation time" ;
srf_time:units = "days" ;
srf_time:cycle_length = 360. ;
double sustr(sms_time, eta_u, xi_u) ;
sustr:long_name = "surface u-momentum stress" ;
sustr:units = "Newton meter-2" ;
double svstr(sms_time, eta_v, xi_v) ;
svstr:long_name = "surface v-momentum stress" ;
svstr:units = "Newton meter-2" ;
double shflux(shf_time, eta_rho, xi_rho) ;
shflux:long_name = "surface net heat flux" ;
shflux:units = "Watts meter-2" ;
double swflux(swf_time, eta_rho, xi_rho) ;
swflux:long_name = "surface freshwater flux (E-P)" ;
swflux:units = "centimeter day-1" ;
swflux:positive = "net evaporation" ;
swflux:negative = "net precipitation" ;
double SST(sst_time, eta_rho, xi_rho) ;
SST:long_name = "sea surface temperature" ;
SST:units = "Celsius" ;
double SSS(sss_time, eta_rho, xi_rho) ;
SSS:long_name = "sea surface salinity" ;
SSS:units = "PSU" ;
double dQdSST(sst_time, eta_rho, xi_rho) ;
dQdSST:long_name = "surface net heat flux sensitivity to SST" ;
dQdSST:units = "Watts meter-2 Celsius-1" ;
double swrad(srf_time, eta_rho, xi_rho) ;
swrad:long_name = "solar shortwave radiation" ;
swrad:units = "Watts meter-2" ;
swrad:positive = "downward flux, heating" ;
swrad:negative = "upward flux, cooling" ;
double tide_period(tide_period) ;
tide_period:long_name = "Tide angular period" ;
tide_period:units = "Hours" ;
double tide_Ephase(tide_period, eta_rho, xi_rho) ;
tide_Ephase:long_name = "Tidal elevation phase angle" ;
tide_Ephase:units = "Degrees" ;
double tide_Eamp(tide_period, eta_rho, xi_rho) ;
tide_Eamp:long_name = "Tidal elevation amplitude" ;
tide_Eamp:units = "Meter" ;
double tide_Cmin(tide_period, eta_rho, xi_rho) ;
tide_Cmin:long_name = "Tidal current ellipse semi-minor axis" ;
tide_Cmin:units = "Meter second-1" ;
double tide_Cmax(tide_period, eta_rho, xi_rho) ;
tide_Cmax:long_name = "Tidal current, ellipse semi-major axis" ;
tide_Cmax:units = "Meter second-1" ;
double tide_Cangle(tide_period, eta_rho, xi_rho) ;
tide_Cangle:long_name = "Tidal current inclination angle" ;
tide_Cangle:units = "Degrees between semi-major axis and East" ;
double tide_Cphase(tide_period, eta_rho, xi_rho) ;
tide_Cphase:long_name = "Tidal current phase angle" ;
tide_Cphase:units = "Degrees" ;
(........).

The tidal variables are reading correctly, but the others ones it seems that an incorrect values are read (at least does not coincide with .nc file).

For example, the maximum of sustr (from .nc file)) for index=1 is 0.0587 and the minimum is -0.0104, the somthing is wrong. :(

Do you thing somthing is incorredted formulated?
