[Wrf-users] MCIP not finding variable UST

[Dr. Amit Kesarkar]

Hi,

UST is frictional velocity computed using similarity theory.  You can
edit registry to store UST in wrf outputs.

cd WRFDIR/Registry

vi Registry.EM

search for UST and change following line  

state    real  UST              ij      misc        1         -      r
"UST"                   "U* IN SIMILARITY THEORY"
--
state    real  UST              ij      misc        1         -      rh
"UST"                   "U* IN SIMILARITY THEORY"
--

save it and recompile wrf

Hope this will solve your problem

With regards

Amit
