To those using old grid files I've made

[kate]

If you update to the latest ROMS version du jour and you are using a grid made using an old version of gridpak, make sure that there is no _FillValue on any of the mask variables in the grid file. I fixed gridpak a few years ago, but the grids live on... If you do have a _FillValue, run this command on your grid file:

Code: Select all

ncatted -O -a _FillValue,mask_rho,d,, -a _FillValue,mask_u,d,, -a _FillValue,mask_v,d,, -a _FillValue,mask_psi,d,, <filename>

ncatted comes with the NCO package.

Consider yourself warned!
