Dear WRF Users,


Good day!


I am getting a problem regarding WRF map projection. My study area is Melbourne, Australia. I have run a test simulation for 24 hours using Lambert projection. After run ARWpost.exe, I have tried to extract Temperature values for two specified locations. But I am getting only words '" interpolation......interpolation...so on" into the output text files. Also, I have tried to extract the output in different way, but there are lot of missing values. Please find the Namelist.wps, Namelist.ARWpost_lambert, GRADS script (valueT2C.gs) and two output text files 'Ambagan_lambert.txt & Bari_lambert.txt' file for detail information.

Again I have run same simulation using Mercator Projection. This time I am getting the output results correctly. Please find the Namelist.ARWpost_mercator and two output text file 'Ambagan_mercator.txt & Bari_mercator.txt' file for detail information.

Could you tell me please what is the problem here.

Is Mercator projection is more efficient for small area projection around mid-latitude zone?

Is there any option to use Mercator Projection for Melbourne or Australia?

Ardently looking forward to your reply with guidance.

Kind regards,
Hossain
