 ROMS/TOMS - Output NetCDF summary for Grid 01:
 Found Error: 02   Line: 401      Source: ROMS/Utility/close_io.F, close_out
 ROMS/TOMS - Input error ............. exit_flag: 2
 ERROR: Abnormal termination: NetCDF INPUT.
 REASON: No child processes                                                              
The NetCDF file has been checked for the presence of the Vtransform variable, and the file seems to be valid.
I am confident that the issue is not with the NetCDF file itself but might be related to how the ROMS model is handling it.
Has anyone encountered a similar issue, or does anyone have suggestions on what might be causing this error? Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
Best regards,
