Dear everyone,

I have made anthropogenic emissions and they were stored in four files:
wrfchemi_00z_d01
wrfchemi_12z_d01
wrfchemi_00z_d02
wrfchemi_12z_d02
Each of them consists of 12 hours' data which is one hour by one hour.

After running wrf.exe, I got this error:

Timing for Writing wrfout_d01_2016-07-27_18:00:00 for domain        1:    1.62784 elapsed seconds

 med_read_wrf_chem_emissions: error opening wrfchemi_d01_2016-07-27_18:00:00

But, other people's error file is like this:

Timing for Writing wrfout_d01_2012-11-20_12:00:00 for domain        1:  196.50317 elapsed seconds

 HOURLY EMISSIONS UPDATE TIME        0.0       0.0
mediation_integrate: med_read_wrf_chem_emissions: Read emissions for time 2012-11-20_12:00:00

How can I fix this error?

Here are some parts of my namelist.input:

 io_form_auxinput5                   = 2,
 frames_per_auxinput5                = 1, 1,
 auxinput5_interval_m                = 60, 60,
 io_form_auxinput6                   = 2,
 frames_per_auxinput6                = 1, 1,
 auxinput6_inname                    = 'wrfbiochemi_d<domain>',
 io_form_auxinput7                   = 2,
 frames_per_auxinput7                = 1, 1,
 auxinput7_inname                    = 'wrffirechemi_d<domain>_<date>',
 auxinput7_interval_m                = 60, 60,

Thanks!

Hi Xin,
 
Is your io_style_emissions set to 2? If yes, set it to 1 and try again. Also, change frames_per_auxinput to 12.

Thank you! Rajesh!

I have two questions:

1. 'io_style_emissions = 2' means that two 12-h emissions data files used. Is this applied to all emissions like biogenic emissions and biomass burning emissions? Or just anthropogenic emissions?
2. What's the meaning of 'frames_per_auxinput = 12'? I can't find explanation User's Guide.

Thank you very much!

Xin,

io_style_emissions = 1 means that that two 12-h emissions data files used. It applies only to anthropogenic emissions. The two 12-h emissions files are wrfchemi_00z_d01 and wrfchemi_12z_d01 you created using anthro_emis. 

frames_per_auxinput = 12 mens there are 12 hours of data in wrfchemi_00z_d01 and wrfchemi_12z_d01 files.

Xin,

This is a warning, not an error.  The warning can be ignored.

Hi Stacy,

But the wrf.exe stopped after this warning.

 I got the same your error. Please help me whether you have fixed the error.
Thank you in advance.

Hello, if WRF stops running suddenly without any error like that, it's most likely that your computer runs out of memory, u can check this:

Hello, Trang.

Thank you for your prompt response. In my opinion, it is not due to out of memory. I found that variable emission (ebu_in_CO) were all zero after I run real.exe. Maybe it is a reason why wrf.exe stopped.
I try to fixed this error, but it didn't work.

Hello Ngoc,
Regarding ebu_in_CO, you should recheck your emission data, you extract Biomass burning emission from fire_emiss tool or Prep_chem tool? According to my experience, the empty variables can not terminate wrf.exe.

I checked memory while wrf.exe was running, it reached 38/126G before stopped. So I don't know that out of memory caused by error.

Hi Ngoc,

I can't remember the exact reason related to this error.
According to my experience, wrong wrfinput file or wrong hpc communication will result in this issue.

You should make sure wrfinput and wrfbdy files are correct.
If this issue happens again, you can run wrf.exe without chemistry to check whether it's related to settings of chem part.
If it works without chemistry, you can turn off the anthropogenic emissions with other chemistry settings open, for checking the anthropogenic part.

Regards,
Xin
