[Wrf-users] WRFDA GSI gen_be

[Anton Kliewer]

Hello,

I have run WRFDA's wrapper_gen_be_gsi.ksh to generate a background error
covariance matrix.

I want to run the WRFDA script "wrapper_gen_be_gsi_plot.ksh" to see what
the new background matrix looks like but I got this error:

warning:["FileSupport.c":3894]:NCL does not know anything about file suffix
<gcv>.
But NCL will try its best to figure out the file format.

fatal:An internal error has occurred. The file format requested does not
appear to be supported, could not open
(/data/DATA/Month/run_gsi_be_lat_bin_size_5.0_lnps/wrf-arw-gsi_be.gcv)
(0)    Error: can not find
/data/DATA/Month/run_gsi_be_lat_bin_size_5.0_lnps/wrf-arw-gsi_be.gcv

Have you seen this error before or know what may be going wrong?  Below is
the script.  Thank you.
