grids on the picture of surface temperature

Submitted by gmikuchadze on Tue, 09/14/2021 - 03:26

I use wrf-nmm v4.3 for the nwp model. When I put parameter 
euler_adv  = .true.,
in &dynamics stanza of the namelist.input file, it causes the appearance of strange grids on the surface temperature distribution, while in the case of 
euler_adv  = .false.,
they disappear.
Can anyone help me to solve the problem!

Hi,

I am not sure whether you got some help from other WRF forums or not. WRF-NMM was only supported when it is used with the HWRF system. Please refer to the WRF-NMM Users Guide if you haven't already.  I remember that euler_adv = .true. was introduced for Ferrier mp, which is probably you are using. FYI, in HWRF we mark euler_adv = .false. So, my personal opinion will be to make it false unless it is absolute necessary for your experiment. 

Thanks
