unable to output time-averaged terms in the avg.nc file

[xuyi]

Hi, I am using ROMS version 456M. I have a problem to output time-averaged terms in the avg.nc. like Huon, Hvom and quadratic terms.


In my cppdef.h file

# define AVERAGES
# define AVERAGES_FLUXES
# define AVERAGEs_QUADRATIC
# undef AVERAGES_AKV /* save for offline 1D bio model testing */
# undef AVERAGES_AKT /* save for offline 1D bio model testing */
# undef AVERAGES_AKS
# define DIAGNOSTICS_TS /* for shelf-wide temp/salt budget calculations */
# define DIAGNOSTICS_UV /* for shelf-wide momentum budget calculations */

In the ocean.in file
Aout(idHUav) == T ! u-volume flux, Huon
Aout(idHVav) == T ! v-volume flux, Hvom
Aout(idUUav) == T ! quadratic <u*u> term
Aout(idUVav) == T ! quadratic <u*v> term

Can someone help me?

Since the ROMS source is at 653 I would recommend that you start by updating to the latest and trying again. There have been changes made to that part of the code.

Hi Kate,

By using the latest version of ROMS source, version 653, I also ran into a similar situation being not able to create the average NetCDF output file. Any comments on the potential reasons?

Thank

There's more than one way to get a seg fault. The first thing I would do is recompile with USE_DEBUG and maybe you'll get more information out than all those "Unknown" statements. The second thing I would do is run it in a debugger - debugging is relatively easy when it blows up right at the start.

Hi Kate

I have run into this before, and i do did as you suggested here, but the question is when i turn on the DEBUG the model run smoothly. So, there is nothing message can be follow. It is so tricky. What can i do if this happen again when i need the AVERAGE results.

I hate when that happens. I guess that leaves adding print statements to figure out what's going on.
