Zeta data in boundary files can't be read

#1 Unread post by LinShicheng »

Hello,all.
I am setting up a rough test case of Pacific. I plan to run for 2 years forced by NCEP reanalysis 1 data, and the boundary condiction files and climatology files was make by SODA_2.2.4 monthly data. However, I have some troubles:
1.Temperature,salinity and velocity in boundary input files can be read in to model, but sea surface height (zeta) can't, if I miss some orders or processes;
2.I have add the climatology file in .in, these files also can not be read, should I add some processes in .h. Besides, what are these input files used for?
The attachments are my .h,.in and one boundary file.Thanks in advence.

In tropical_pacific.h you have ...

Code: Select all

#define ANA_M2OBC
#define ANA_FSOBC

which says use analytical boundary zeta and ubar/vbar. That's why it doesn't read boundary zeta.
