Issue with creating forcing files

[psbecker]

I'm following the tutorial for the "Compile the create_point_data.f90 code to generate single-point forcing" step in the docker container but when I type the make command, I get:

ams@docker-desktop:~/hrldas/hrldas/HRLDAS_forcing/run/examples/single_point$ make
mpif90 -I/usr/include -o create_point_data.exe -g -fconvert=big-endian -fbounds-check -fno-range-check -fallow-argument-mismatch create_point_data.f90 -L/usr/lib -lnetcdf -lnetcdff

it still gives me the create_point_data.exe but when I run the executable, my forcing data doesn't have any values in it. I didn't change anything in the user_build_options file because I was using the Docker Container so I'm not sure what's going on

When you do "./configure", what compiler option did you choose? You will need to choose this one:
9. Linux gfortran/gcc compiler MPI (Docker container)

Hi Cenlin, just wondering if you have been able to look into this more and see what's going on?

[cenlinhe]

I just tried to download the NoahMP docker contain to my Macbook and run the single point case for HRLDAS, which works successfully.

I emailed you an example single-point forcing file after execute create_point_data.exe. You did not need to change any setup or hrldas code inside docker container.

I got the same message you did after running the 'make' command with the 'mpif90 -I/usr/include.....' and it was still able to run but the LDASIN_DOMAIN1 files didn't have any values to them.

For example, when I try to open them with ncview or in jupyter notebooks, it says there is no numeric data. I just tried looking at the example single-point forcing you sent me and I got the same issue. This also happens when I try to open and view one of the output variables. If I use 'ncview 199801020030.LDASOUT_DOMAIN1' I get the issue in the image attached.

[cenlinhe]

This is because it is a point scale input forcing file and output file, and if you use ncview to open it, it will not show the value. Please use the following ncdump command and you will see the numeric value. The file has no issue. I just checked the file I sent to you:
ncdump -v T2D 199801020000.LDASIN_DOMAIN1
it will show 277.15 K
ncdump -v Q2D 199801020000.LDASIN_DOMAIN1
it will show 0.003747421 kg/kg

etc.

[cenlinhe]

note that because it is point scale, every variable is a scalar in hourly input forcing file (similarly for output file, except for the snow and soil layer-related variables). ncview is not a good tool to open scalar variable.

[psbecker]

Oh okay. That makes more sense. I will try this tomorrow and get back to you. Thank you so much for your help! I greatly appreciate it!

That worked. Thank you Cenlin! Paige
