NO3_sflux error

[cschultz]

Hello everyone!


I tried to run the Fennel model today but I keep getting the following error:

GET_2DFLD - unable to find requested variable: NO3_sflux
in files:
../Data/roms_blk_pair_teste1.nc
../Data/roms_blk_lwrad_teste1.nc
../Data/roms_blk_qair_teste1.nc
../Data/roms_blk_rain_teste1.nc
../Data/roms_blk_swrad_teste1.nc

GET_2DFLD - unable to find requested variable: NO3_sflux
in files:
../Data/roms_blk_pair_teste1.nc

../Data/roms_blk_qair_teste1.nc
../Data/roms_blk_rain_teste1.nc
../Data/roms_blk_swrad_teste1.nc
../Data/roms_blk_tair_teste1.nc

My understanding is that it represents superficial flux of nitrate, don`t know if that is correct. Do I really need nutrient fluxes or am I able to work without them? Is it just nitrate? If I have to define them, could I just create a variable set to zero at all points (will that be ok to represent an area without surface input of nutrients)?

I also have another question: can I set some biogeochemical variables to be analysed analitically and supply others in a netcdf input? Or does ana-biology define all of them as analytical?

Thank you in advance!

I have a similar error:

Did you ever get this worked out?

analytically you can solve it by :

# define ANA_SPFLUX
# define ANA_BPFLUX

which then call ana_stflux and ana_btflux to give certain values (zero by default) for the tracers.
