write x,y coordinates instead of lat/lon into output files

[xupeng66]

Hi All,

I found that the coordinates in the output netcdf files (e.g., ocean_his.nc) of my simulation are lat/lon despite that I only defined the x/y coordinates of each grid points in the grid file. The lat/lon coordinate variables in the output files are all zero matrices. I am wondering if the there is a switch or setting in ocean.in that can change the lat/lon coordinates in the output files to x/y?

Thanks!

There's a switch, all right, but it's in the grid file, not ocean.in. It is called "spherical" and is true for lat/lon grids, false for x/y grids.

Got it. Thanks a lot!
