Very high values of ls_forcing_ug and ls_forcing_vg from WRF4PALM

[Nguyen-ThanhHung]

Dear developers,

I successfully created a dynamic file from WRF output using WRF4PALM. When I checked the output files, I found that the values for u wind component geostrophic and v wind component geostrophic are very high (please kindly check the text files I attached to this post for details). I would like to ask if it is normal to have such high values of ls_forcing_ug and ls_forcing_vg?

Thank you very much for your attention. I attached my namelist.wrf4palm and a text file that contains ls_forcing_ug and ls_forcing_vg for your reference.

Hi,

From my previous experience of using WRF4PALM, this is normal and the PALM simulations give reasonable results. Have you had a test PALM run with the dynamic driver? How are the results compared to WRF and observations?

I will leave this open as others may have more experience than me.

Thanks

Hi,

Thank you for your reply. I am running PALM with the dynamic driver. I managed to create a static driver using GEO4PALM, thanks to your suggestions earlier. I will update you about the result or if I have any issue.

Thank you!
