Dear All,

I am trying to generate the emissions with the megan_bio_emiss processor. The emission file was generated. However, at the end of the log/output  file there is no line showing megan complete successfully similar to other processors such are anthro or fire emiss. 
In fact, the last few lines ended as show below and in the .out file.

 area_interp: diagnostics
area_interp: min model lat ndx =  10221
area_interp: max model lat ndx =  11894
area_interp: mcells outside data domain =                      0
area_interp: wght size =   0.00000000000000    
area_interp: total dcell cnt            =   6820479
area_interp: active dcell cnt           =   5689575
area_interp: interior dcell cnt         =         0
area_interp: partial dcell cnt          =    760216
  Finished megan2 bio emiss dataset shr200121_30sec.nc
 map_megan2_emissions: Before write_bioemiss
 map_megan2_emissions: After write_bioemiss
  
map_megan2_emissions:   3 cached grid(s)
 
 
Do I have an issue with my megan_bio_emiss processor?

Cheers
Martin

Martin,

That is the normal completion for the megan bio emiss utility.
From the output shown you do not have a problem.

Dear Stacy,

Thanks for the clarification.

Dear Stacy,

When the megan emissions were included in the namelist.input in order to generated the lateral boundary conditions with the mozbc, I got a FATAL CALLED:

STARTING WITH BACKGROUND CHEMISTRY
Subroutine input_chem_profile:
READING BEIS3.14 EMISSIONS DATA
 mediation_integrate: med_read_wrf_chem_bioemissions: Open file wrfbiochemi_d01
-------------- FATAL CALLED ---------------
FATAL CALLED FROM FILE:  mediation_integrate.b  LINE:    2549
 med_read_wrf_chem_bioemissions: error opening wrfbiochemi_d01

For more info refer to attached rsl file. 

I am still suspecting that the megan processor is not generating the correct file. 

Any feedback is much appreciated

regards,
Martin

Hello Martin,

the biogenic emissions processor and mozbc have nothing to do with
each other. I urge you to read through the various documentation and
tutorial presentations on our and the NOAA WRF-Chem websites to learn
about the objectives of each tool and input data set and also inform
yourself about different namelist settings:
