[Wrf-users] PBL dramatic differences between WRF_3_7_1 and WRF_3_7

Dear Users,

I got dramatic differences in the PBL estimations when using WRF V3_7_1 or WRF V3_7, in two different modellings (different domains), both in coastal areas in the north of Chile. Using exactly the same configuration file and exactly the same input data for WPS. I checked .tbl files consistency and everything for both versions, as I understand that a few of them changed, so I have no clue what might be the problem.

When I saw the results in WRF_v_3_7_1, I didn't like the PBL daily profiles, so I decided to go back to WRF_v_3_7 and repeat the simulations.

In both cases, results for version 3_7 make more sense than results for version 3_7_1.

I'm sending the results just for 1 point close to the coast for one of the two simulations for the month of July 2014, but differences are similar for whole year, especially between March and October. I'm sending the namelist.input as well.

I'm using the Quasi-Normal Scale Elimination PBL  and the Noah Land Surface Model


Kind regards
