writing out tke turbulent kinetic energy

[asujrpv]

Hello everybody,
I am sorry for asking this trivial question but I am not sure how to ask roms to write out the kinetic energy (turbulent) in either history or avg files.

I set my flags as follows:
Hout(idDano) == T ! rho density anomaly
Hout(idVvis) == F ! AKv vertical viscosity
Hout(idTdif) == F ! AKt vertical T-diffusion
Hout(idSdif) == F ! AKs vertical Salinity diffusion
Hout(idHsbl) == F ! Hsbl depth of surface boundary layer
Hout(idHbbl) == F ! Hbbl depth of bottom boundary layer
Hout(idMtke) == T ! tke turbulent kinetic energy
Hout(idMtls) == F ! gls turbulent length scale

but when asked to plot tke I got
ocean_his.nc

[ID= 59] bathymetry at RHO-points
[ID= 66] Coriolis parameter at RHO-points
[ID= 57] curvilinear coordinate metric in XI
[ID= 58] curvilinear coordinate metric in ETA
[ID= 21] free-surface
[ID= 13] vertically integrated u-momentum component
[ID= 14] vertically integrated v-momentum component
[ID= 1] u-momentum component
[ID= 2] v-momentum component
[ID= 19] vertical momentum component
[ID= 20] S-coordinate vertical momentum component
[ID= 23] potential temperature
[ID= 24] salinity
[ID= 25] density anomaly

You are plotting from ccnt and friends? Perhaps it doesn't know the id for plotting tke. First you need to check the output netcdf file to see if that field is in it, perhaps view it with ncview first. Then you check the plotting approach to see if has tke in the varid.dat file, find out what its id is.
