TSLIST file and output

[Giancarlo Modugno]

wait!!! I'm having another simulation and I've coincidently seen the files *.ts in the run directory. Thus, there is output but this is deleted when wrfems copies the wrfout_* files in the final stage, isn't it?

If yes, what else we can do to copy the file?

Thank you

Right. Basically you should find where in scripts wrfout files are copied, then add similar commands to copy ts files. If you can't yourself I can look at this, but you will need to wait maybe few days.

Ok, I will wait ! Thank you so much

I have tried to insert at line 502 in run_ems.pm the command

Code: Select all

system "mv $ENV{EMS_RUN}/*.TS $EMSrun{WRFPRD}/";

and it works.

But now there is the about the number of station output. I have tried with 7 station points (maximum default is 5) but only the first two are printed.

In the readme file

Code: Select all

The maximum number of time series locations is controlled by the namelist
variable max_ts_locs, which may be specified in the &domains namelist.

But the problem is that the namelist.wps file in the static directory is overwritten every run I have, thus...?

Great you figured it out!

No, it it not namelist.wps, but namelist.input.

You need to edit wrfems/data/tables/wrf/namelist.arw (or namelist.nmm for NMM). This file is a starting point namelist for EMS scripts from which final namelist.input file is created for every run. So if you want to add something new (or remove something, or make parameter change that is not covered by ems conf files), you basically do it there.

Quick explanation on how ems works with namelist.input: When ems scripts start run, file wrfems/runs/<domainname>/static/namelist.wrfm is created dynamically from this default namelist AND from your configuration files in runs/<domainname>/conf directory. Then, it is symlinked into run directory to namelist.input filename.

I'm also going to move this topic to Hacking WRF EMS section, because all this is not supported by EMS.

Great! Done and it works! (Strange that only one has not printed the d02...! I will have another test...!)

Thank you so much! That's a big day

PS: It's a shame that I can't choose the variables in the output files... Or I can?

Have I change the topic in "solved"?

[meteoadriatic]

Great!

I don't know, never tried creating tslists.

Can you please copy/paste here (between code tags) an example of created .ts file, so the visitors (including myself who are lazy to try) can see what the output looks like?

Thx

[Giancarlo Modugno]

Sure!

It is important to not use the TAB key but only "single space" (otherwise the station is not found).

#-----------------------------------------------#
# 24 characters for name | pfx | LAT | LON |
#-----------------------------------------------#
McMurdo Station due 41.851 3.713
Bogus point A tre 40.718 5.772
Bitonto bit 41.108 16.691

palo pal 40.108 15.391
bitetto bite 42.108 16.291
bari barl 41.108 16.091

I think I will use wgrib for the other variables, because the .TS files have the coordinate of the grid point.

And this is the .TS output (the previous was the tslist file), like in the README.tslist

Hi Giancarlo,

I'm trying to activate the tslist option in the latest version (3.4.1.13.23) I've found that the script is now named WRFrun.pm and it's now located under wrfems>strc>ems_run>Models>WRF

I now nothing about perl scripts, but it seems to be almost the same method: include tslist around line 244 and 249 but also in lines 511 and 516. As it happened with the previous versions, it runs fine, but as soon as the simulation ends, the script moves wrfout* files to wrfprd, erasing all the other files.

Following your suggestions, I've tried to add this new line at line 695:

system "mv $ENV{EMS_RUN}/*.TS $EMSrun{WRFPRD}/";

It's placed just after the one which moves the wrfout files. But I'n not doing it as it should, because the script crashes.
Do you now how should I include in the perl script and in what line?

Regards,

Luis
