Perfect restart and 4dvar

#1 Unread post by mathieu »

Is it possible to combine IS4DVAR with PERFECT_RESTART? Apparently not. ROMS compiles correctly with those options but when running the error is
NETCDF_PUT_FVAR_1D - error while inquiring ID for variable: ocean_time
The reason I wanted to use perfect restart is for the AKt fields: when using GLS, they take several hours to converge to reasonable values and this is problematic for 4dvar. The option perfect restart allows you to avoid the initialization procedure.
