An error in ROMS-SWAN coupling and INLET_TEST problem

[gen3]

Hi all,

I was trying to run INLET_TEST problem to study ROMS-SWAN coupling and face a error during complie (using build_roms.sh):

coupler.f90:302:11:

302 | USE ROMS_import_mod, ONLY : ROMS_import2d
| 1
Fatal Error: Cannot open module file ‘roms_import_mod.mod’ for reading at (1): No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

I checked that ROMS_export_mod and ROMS_import_mod were removed (https://www.myroms.org/projects/src/ticket/898#no1), but current version (subversion 1165) is still using the modules in /Master/mct_roms_swan.h and /Master/mct_roms_wrf.h.

Any kind of comment to revise this issue will be really helpful for me.

It will be much appreciated if I can get any tips and comments for the ROMS-SWAN (and ROMS-WRF) coupling.


Best regards,

if you are using coawst, please post a message here:

you would need to use coawst.bash
we include a user manual.doc that has lots of info.
thanks

Dear Dr. Warner

Thanks for quick response and your comment. But I am not using COAWST but just ROMS from https://www.myroms.org/svn/src/trunk.

I thought that ROMS (from https://www.myroms.org/svn/src/trunk) also provides function for coupling SWAN and WRF
(https://www.myroms.org/wiki/Model_Coupling or https://www.myroms.org/wiki/INLET_TEST_CASE).

Is it better approach to use COAWST?

Thanks in advance...


Best regards,

yes, use coawst for roms+swan coupling, and that system also has the option to also use wrf.

Rutgers has WRF coupling and that is with ESMF. i have not used that yet, but it will be happening soon.
Also, Rutgers is looking to couple WAVEWATCH III to ROMS via ESMF, but that is just starting.

So for now, i would suggest to use coawst. but eventually Rutgers will have a full set of options as well.

Got it. Thank you so much for your recommendation. That's really helpful!
