<div dir="ltr"><p style="margin:0px;font-size:12px;font-family:Helvetica">Dear all,</p>
<p style="margin:0px;font-size:12px;font-family:Helvetica;min-height:14px"><br></p>
<p style="margin:0px;font-size:12px;font-family:Helvetica">someone could tell me please what is the minimal number of variables necessary to make a run with WRF? I am asking this because I need to use data from HadGEM-2-ES model to force WRF for a couple of experiments for present climate (1980-2000) and future climate (2080-2100, RCP8.5). </p>
<p style="margin:0px;font-size:12px;font-family:Helvetica;min-height:14px"><br></p>
<p style="margin:0px;font-size:12px;font-family:Helvetica">In a first look at Vtable.GFS (that I usually use for my runs) I saw the data dependencies from Temperature (T), U, V, Relative Humidity (RH), Height, T at 2 m, RH at 2 m, U at 2 m, V at 2 m, Surface Pressure, Sea-Level-Pressure, Soil Moist for 4 layers, T bellow ground for 4 layers, Ice flag, Land/Sea flag, Skin Temperature, terrain field, water equivalent snow depth and physical snow depth. </p>
<p style="margin:0px;font-size:12px;font-family:Helvetica;min-height:14px"><br></p>
<p style="margin:0px;font-size:12px;font-family:Helvetica">However, for ESGF portal where I intend download data from HadGEM-2-ES experiments the available variables, at 6/6h frequency, are just 6: T, U, V, Sea-Level-Pressure, Specific Humidity and Surface Air Pressure, i. e., there are no variables of RH, T at 2m, U and V at 2 meters, T skin (or SST) among others cited before. So, how can I run WRF? </p>
<p style="margin:0px;font-size:12px;font-family:Helvetica;min-height:14px"> </p>
<p style="margin:0px;font-size:12px;font-family:Helvetica">I really appreciate if some one could help me with this doubt.</p><div><div dir="ltr"><div><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;border-collapse:collapse"><br>
