ocean_rivers.nc unable to open

#1 Unread post by carol.ernani »

Hey,

I am running the river plume test case and I received this error message (I attached the complete log file):

I am using ifort, in parallel, netcdf 4.3.2
I am a beginner in ROMS, and probably this is a stupid question. I know that the issue is because somehow the ROMS cannot open/find the ocean_river.nc file. However, I don't know why.

Does anyone have some idea?

There should be an input file with a .in extension, which provides all the ROMS parameters for running the model, including the file paths for the river input file. The compilation command should be something like this:
./oceanG < ocean.in

Check your ocean.in file. The river runoff input is given as
SSFNAME == ocean_rivers.nc

Here you will need to provide the path to the ocean_river.nc file.

It is working now!
Thanks, sonaljit!
