WPS_GEOG is a large static dataset of geographic data that is required for geogrid.exe to run (see: https://www2.mmm.ucar.edu/wrf/OnLineTutorial/Basics/GEOGRID/ter_data.php). GEOGRID.TBL and METGRID.TBL are typically found in the geogrid/ and metgrid/ directories inside the WPS installation directory.:: + + &share + wrf_core = 'ARW', + max_dom = 1, + start_date = '2016-10-06_00:00:00','2019-09-04_12:00:00', + end_date = '2016-10-08_00:00:00','2019-09-04_12:00:00', + interval_seconds = 21600, + / + + &geogrid + parent_id = 1, 1, + parent_grid_ratio = 1, 3, + i_parent_start = 1, 53, + j_parent_start = 1, 25, + e_we = 91, 220, + e_sn = 100, 214, + geog_data_res = 'default','default', + dx = 27000, + dy = 27000, + map_proj = 'mercator', + ref_lat = 28.00, + ref_lon = -75.00, + truelat1 = 30.0, + truelat2 = 60.0, + stand_lon = -75.0, + geog_data_path = '/glade/work/wrfhelp/WPS_GEOG/' + opt_geogrid_tbl_path = '/glade/u/home/jaredlee/programs/WPS-4.5-serial-intel/geogrid/', + / + + &ungrib + out_format = 'WPS', + prefix = 'FILE', + / + + &metgrid + fg_name = 'FILE' + opt_metgrid_tbl_path = '/glade/u/home/jaredlee/programs/WPS-4.5-serial-intel/metgrid/', + / + +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ +WRF Namelist and Other Config Files +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ +Use this namelist.input file when running WRF for the Hurricane Matthew case, from the Github repository: + +https://github.com/NCAR/i-wrf/blob/main/use_cases/Hurricane_Matthew/WRF/namelist.input + +Note that the iofields_filename variable points to a file called vars_io.txt.
