Error of having input of multiple rivers in 2D run

#1 Unread post by whcsimon »

I am trying to implement river discharge in an idealized domain using input forcing files. I constructed my river forcing file using the CDL file that comes with ROMS trunk. The implementation has been going well in 3D runs for one river or multiple rivers.

HOWEVER, problems occur when I try to run it in 2D mode. It works well when the number of river is ONE, but when it's more than one, it has the following run time error about reading the river_Vshape parameter:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NETCDF_GET_FVAR_1D - error while reading variable: river_Vshape
in input file: input/frc11.nc
call from: get_cycle.F

GET_NGFLD - error while reading variable: river_Vshape at TIME index = 6

...


ROMS/TOMS - Input error ............. exit_flag: 2


ERROR: Abnormal termination: NetCDF INPUT.
REASON: NetCDF: Index exceeds dimension bound


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have no idea why the error refers to the TIME index, when the river_Vshape should only have dimensions in S_rho (number of layers) and number of rivers. I've made many futile attempt to change the dimensions and definition of river_Vshape and none works. I even tried to remove river_Vshape from my forcing file, because apparently it shouldn't be required for 2D run (i.e. it must be unity at each river!). But in this case, the model still asks for this variable.

I'm attaching the he full running log and the ncdump of my forcing file for your inspection below. Any prompt help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi, everyone! I also have met the same problem, " GET_NGFLD -error while reading variable: river_Vshape at TIME index = 1"
I also wondered what wrong is it, please help me,thank you very much.

What happens if you tell it not to read Vshape in get_idata.F? You can put "#ifdef SOLVE3D" around that section.
