Hi, Ufuk, <div><br></div><div>Thanks for the reply. Now I understand that only /external/esmf_time_f90 is used with WRF to calculate time. The actual ESMF code is within the folder /external/io_esmf and to enable this part, we need to set ESMF_COUPLING to 1 and also install ESMF libraries, right? But the coupling with ESMF is not needed in my case, so What I need to do is to change the code in external folder, e.g., to hardwire it to noleap calendar instead of gregorian calendar. Is that correct ?</div>
<div><br></div><div>Another question: do I still need to add that <span style="background-color:rgb(225,235,242);color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:'Lucida Grande','Trebuchet MS',Verdana,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:18.200000762939453px">-DNO_LEAP_CALENDAR to the macro ARCH_LOCAL in configure.wps file ?</span></div>
<div><br></div><div>My machine is down for now. I will test it later today and let you know if I can fix it. Meanwhile if someone can offer an exact solution, please let me know.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div>

<div>Hi Rui,<br>
<br>
WRF uses ESMF Time module to calculate time inside of the model.
To do that, WRF developers split the ESMF_Time module from
original ESMF library. So, it is just a subset of ESMF library
(but i don't know which version it is). For the coupling, you need
to install ESMF library first (like a netcdf library) and then you
have to point that directory to compile the ESMF enabled code. It
is little bit confusing but the code works like this. So, if you
want to add noleap year support, you can change the code in
external/ folder. I hope it helps.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>

I tracked down the error message and it comes
from external/esmf_time_f90/ESMF_Time.f. I browsed the ESMF_time
codes under that directory and it says WRF is hard-wired to
gregorian calendar. I am still trying to understand those ESMF
codes to figure the problem out.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Another thing I do not understand is that currently in
configure.wrf, we have the following in default</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div># switch to use separately installed ESMF library for
coupling: 1==true</div>
<div>ESMF_COUPLING = 0</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Does that indicate ESMF lib is used or not ? I assume if it
is set to 0, ESMF is still used somehow, otherwise why would
that error comes from there ?<br style="margin:0px;padding:0px;background-color:rgb(225,235,242)">

<div><span>I
will appreciate if someone can offer an answer or advice.
Thanks very much!</span><br>
