  Initial Request

Hi,

I am trying to regrid one of my observation files in lat lon coordinate
grid to WRF curvilinear grid.

I ran bin/regrid_data_plane using a sample lat lon grid file and a file in
the WRF grid. But I got error as shown below:

yoo108 at halstead-fe00:*/scratch/halstead/y/yoo108/ND_grided_obs* $
~/met-6.0_bugfix/bin/regrid_data_plane

/scratch/halstead/y/yoo108/ND_grided_obs/NDtoWRFgrid_sample_tmax.nc -field
'name="tmax";'

DEBUG 1: Reading data file: /scratch/halstead/y/yoo108/ND_grided_obs/
sample_tmax.nc

ERROR  : process_data_file() -> "/scratch/halstead/y/yoo108/ND_grided_obs/
sample_tmax.nc" not a valid data file

I wonder which part of the input file does not satisfy the MET's "valid
file" criteria.
ncdump output of the input file looks as below:
Input file was originally generated by VIC model and converted into cf
netcdf format.


Thank you in advance.
Regards,

Jinwoong

Hi,

I noticed that TRMM data dimension was (lon, lat).
So I switched their order to (lat, lon) and ran the command again.
However, I got the same error message as below.

Thank you.

TRMM data comes in as netCDF-4 classic model.
I changed it to netCDF classic and run the same command for a test.
But I got the same error as below.

Jinwoong,

I see that you're having trouble reading a TRMM NetCDF file into MET.
Can
you please post the problematic file to our anonymous ftp site so I
can
take a look?

Thanks,
John Halley Gotway

Subject: regrid_data_plane: not a valid data file
From: John Halley Gotway
Time: Fri Jul 07 11:16:37 2017

Jinwoong,

Thanks for sending your sample data and for your patience while I was
out
of town.

Using met-6.0, I'm able to process the TRMM NetCDF file you sent.  The
trick is that I had to tell it which NetCDF file type should be used
to
interpret the data.  Using "file_type = NETCDF_NCCF;" I'm telling MET
to
interpret it as if it were a CF-compliant NetCDF file:

met-6.0/bin/plot_data_plane \
trmm_daily.20051231.7.nc trmm_daily.20051231.7.ps \
'name="precipitation"; level="(*,*)"; file_type=NETCDF_NCCF;'

DEBUG 1: Opening data file: trmm_daily.20051231.7.nc
WARNING: NcCfFile::open() -> could not determine the valid time, using
0.
WARNING: NcCfFile::open() -> could not determine the valid time, using
0.
DEBUG 1: Creating postscript file: trmm_daily.20051231.7.ps

The plot_data_plane tool is able to read the data, and I've attached
the
resulting image.  However, notice the warning messages about the valid
time.

Using ncdump to see that file attributes, I see this timing
information:
                :HDF5_GLOBAL.BeginDate = "2005-12-31" ;
                :HDF5_GLOBAL.BeginTime = "01:30:00.000Z" ;
                :HDF5_GLOBAL.EndDate = "2006-01-01" ;
                :HDF5_GLOBAL.EndTime = "01:29:59.999Z" ;

However that is not the CF-compliant way of specifying timing info.
So
while MET will be able to read the data, the timing info won't be
accurate
in the MET output files.  Instead, you'll see "19700101" which is
unixtime
= 0.

Another option would be pulling the binary TRMM data and using this
Rscript
to convert the binary to NetCDF:
   http://www.dtcenter.org/met/users/downloads/Rscripts/trmmbin2nc.R

However, I haven't done this in a while and am not sure if you'll run
into
any issues.

Hope that helps.

Thanks,
John

Subject: regrid_data_plane: not a valid data file
From: Jinwoong Yoo
Time: Fri Jul 07 12:10:19 2017

Hi John,

Thank you very much for your time investing the issue.
I am glad to hear that there is a trick to work around the issue to
read in
TRMM data in netcdf format.
I wonder if I can apply the same trick ( file_type=NETCDF_NCCF;) to
read in
any other observation files in netcdf format?
In fact, I would like to read in "home brew" netcdf dataset files into
MET.
One sample file of them was included in the uploaded data folder (
sample_tmax.nc).
The data in this sample file was originally generated by VIC model.
Then the file format was converted into a generic netcdf file format
although the dimension names are T, X, Y not time, lat, lon.
But their coordinates have units in "degrees_east" or "degrees_north"
as
well as their long_name as "Longitude" and "Latitude", respectively.

Of course, I will try to read those in for Grid-stat today.
But I would like to hear from you if the trick (
file_type=NETCDF_NCCF;)
can be applied generally, which I wish very much.

Thank you so much, John.

Regards,

Jinwoong Yoo

Subject: regrid_data_plane: not a valid data file
From: John Halley Gotway
Time: Fri Jul 07 12:59:11 2017

Jinwoong,

Yes, you can give it a try.  The closer you can make the NetCDF files
to
the CF-convention, the more likely MET will be able to read it.

The reason that's its able to read the TRMM data are that the lat/lon
values are equally spaced.  Non-equally spaced lat/lon values on a map
projection require that the map projection information be specified.
Unfortunately, specifying map projection information in CF-compliant
NetCDF
files is not as easy as I think it should be!

Hope it works out ok for you.

Thanks,
John

Subject: regrid_data_plane: not a valid data file
From: Jinwoong Yoo
Time: Fri Jul 07 15:36:53 2017

Hi John,

I was able to read in a "home brew" netcdf data file using
plot_data_plane.

Then, I went ahead and tried another netcdf file in curvilinear
coordinate
which is in the same coordinate grid as my WRF output. But it failed.

I have many netcdf climatology files from the WRF simulation such as
daily,
monthly, and annual, etc. Therefore, they are all in curvilinear
coordinate
(Lambert).

I wonder if there is any work around so that I can feed these files
into
MET?
Or should I regrid them all into lat lon coordinate files first?

Thank you, John.

Regards,

Jinwoong Yoo

Subject: regrid_data_plane: not a valid data file
From: John Halley Gotway
Time: Fri Jul 07 16:04:28 2017

Jinwoong,

If they really are output from WRF, one simple thing to try is telling
MET
to interpret them as the NetCDF output of the wrf_interp utility
:
   file_type = NETCDF_PINT;

"PINT" stands for "pressure interpolated"... pinterp was the precursor
to
the current wrf_interp tool.

If that doesn't work, I'll need to see a sample file before making any
other suggestions.

Thanks,
John

Subject: regrid_data_plane: not a valid data file
From: Jinwoong Yoo
Time: Fri Jul 07 17:06:28 2017

Hi John,

Thank you for your comment.
I tried it but it failed.
Please see below.

yoo108 at halstead-fe03:*/scratch/halstead/y/yoo108/wrfAnalysis/METanal*
$

One sample file (wrfDaily_T2m_maxminmean_19810101.nc) is also included
in
the Yoo_data4.tar file that I uploaded previously.
Thank you.
Haver a nice weekend.

Regards,

Jinwoong

Subject: regrid_data_plane: not a valid data file
From: John Halley Gotway
Time: Mon Jul 10 13:04:04 2017

Jinwoong,

I tried running the sample file (daily_T2m_maxminmean_1981.nc) through
plot_data_plane and saw the same behavior you did.  Looking closely at
that
file I see that is not the NetCDF output generated by WRF.  The
history
attribute indicates that it was created by the "ncks" utility:

:history = "Sun Jul  2 15:47:18 2017: ncks -d days,0,0
/scratch/halstead/k/khoogewi/CCRC_wrf/analysis/T2m/daily_T2m_maxminmean_1981.nc
/scratch/halstead/y/yoo108/WRFdaily/T2m/wrfDaily_T2m_maxminmean_19810101.nc"


This is not a CF-compliant NetCDF file and it does not look like the
output
from WRF.  Another alternative is making it look like the NetCDF file
format used by the MET tools themselves.

I ran the following command to add global attributes to define the
grid
spec for MET:

ncatted \
-a MET_version,global,o,c,"V6.0" \
-a Projection,global,o,c,"Lambert Conformal" \
-a scale_lat_1,global,o,c,"48" \
-a scale_lat_2,global,o,c,"32" \
-a lat_pin,global,o,c,"48" \
-a lon_pin,global,o,c,"-97" \
-a x_pin,global,o,c,"0" \
-a y_pin,global,o,c,"0" \
-a lon_orient,global,o,c,"-97" \
-a d_km,global,o,c,"3" \
-a r_km,global,o,c,"6371.2" \
-a nx,global,o,c,"189" \
-a ny,global,o,c,"270" \
daily_T2m_maxminmean_1976.nc -o daily_T2m_maxminmean_1976_MET.nc

However, I don't think these are all correct.  Specifically, I don't
know
how the "lon_orient" should be set.  So I set it to the longitude of
the
lower-left corner.  Also, I don't know how the d_km should be set.
That's
the grid spacing in km.  So I just guess with a value of 3.

This enables MET to plot the result, but you should work on making the
grid
info correct:
met-6.0/bin/plot_data_plane \
daily_T2m_maxminmean_1976_MET.nc \
daily_T2m_maxminmean_1976_MET.ps \
'name="T2m_max"; level="(10,*,*)";' -v 4

Thanks,
John

Subject: regrid_data_plane: not a valid data file
From: Jinwoong Yoo
Time: Mon Jul 10 14:53:56 2017

Hi John,

I was able to open netcdf files that share the same coordinates with
WRF
output by copying the global attribute of the WRF output to these
netcdf
files:

ncks -A -x wrfout.nc target.nc

This enabled me to open netcdf files in MET using
'name="TT";level="(0,0,*,*)";file_type
= NETCDF_PINT;' argument.

Thank you very much!
Regards,

Jinwoong

That's

Subject: regrid_data_plane: not a valid data file
From: Jinwoong Yoo
Time: Tue Jul 11 09:12:38 2017

Hi John,

Now I am trying to execute grid_stat against these netcdf files that
have
been patted with the WRF global attributes.

I tried to include 'file_type = NETCDF_PINT;' argument both in its
configuration file and in the command line.
However, both failed to run (Please see below).

Could you please guide me how to specify the netcdf file type in the
grid_stat application?
Thank you.

Regards,

Jinwoong

        file_type = NETCDF_PINT;

Subject: regrid_data_plane: not a valid data file
From: Jinwoong Yoo
Time: Tue Jul 11 09:44:39 2017

Hi John,

Even with the plot_data_plane command,
I noticed that "file_type = NETCDF_PINT;" argument should be provided
in
the command line.
Otherwise, it fails. Please see below.

Subject: regrid_data_plane: not a valid data file
From: Jinwoong Yoo
Time: Wed Jul 12 12:46:49 2017

Hi John,

I am still experiencing troubles to read in netcdf files for grid_stat
command.
Please read the last two previous emails that I sent.
Thank you very much.

Regards,

Jinwoong

Subject: regrid_data_plane: not a valid data file
From: John Halley Gotway
Time: Wed Jul 12 12:59:43 2017

Jinwoong,

OK, sorry for the confusion.  Honestly, I don't know how you're
getting
plot_data_plane to work at all.  When I run it using the sample data
file
you sent me (met_em.d03.2005-01-01_00:00:00.nc), it doesn't work:

met-6.0/bin/plot_data_plane met_em.d03.2005-01-01_00:00:00.nc test.ps
\
   'name="TT"; level="(0,0,*,*)"; file_type = NETCDF_PINT;'
DEBUG 1: Opening data file: met_em.d03.2005-01-01_00:00:00.nc
ERROR  :
ERROR  : MetNcPinterpDataFile::open(const char *) -> unable to open
NetCDF
file "met_em.d03.2005-01-01_00:00:00.nc"
ERROR  :
ERROR  :
ERROR  : Met2dDataFileFactory::new_met_2d_data_file() -> error opening
file
"met_em.d03.2005-01-01_00:00:00.nc"
ERROR  :

There must be something different between the sample file you sent and
the
one you're actually using:
   /scratch/halstead/y/yoo108/NCAR_BC_met_em/met_em.d03.2005-12-
31_18:00:
00.nc

Subject: regrid_data_plane: not a valid data file
From: Jinwoong Yoo
Time: Wed Jul 12 13:05:32 2017

Hi John,
As I noted in the previous messages,
I was able to plot netcdf files by copying global attributes from WRF
output to the netcdf files in the same coordinate grids.

NETCDF_PINT;'

However, when 'file_typ=NETCDF_PINT;' was not provided in the
plot_data_plane command, it failed.

ERROR  : plot_data_plane -> file "/scratch/halstead/y/yoo108/
NCAR_BC_met_em/met_em.d03.2005-12-31_18:00:00.nc" not a valid data
file

Thing is that  I don't know where to put the argument (
'file_typ=NETCDF_PINT;') in the grid_stat.

I tried both in config file and command line but both failed.


Thank you.


Regards,


Jinwoong

Subject: regrid_data_plane: not a valid data file
From: Jinwoong Yoo
Time: Thu Jul 13 23:35:15 2017

Hi John,

I wonder if you had a chance to take a look at the issue regarding how
to
make grid_stat read in netcdf file that has WRF coordinate grid info?
Please let me know.
Thank you.

Regards,

Jinwoong

Subject: regrid_data_plane: not a valid data file
From: John Halley Gotway
Time: Fri Jul 14 09:49:51 2017

Jinwoong,

I'd like to make sure I'm testing with the exact same file you're
using.

Could you please post this file to our anonymous ftp site:
   /scratch/halstead/y/yoo108/NCAR_BC_met_em/met_em.d03.2005-12-
31_18:00:
00.nc

Following these instructions:
   http://www.dtcenter.org/met/users/support/met_help.php#ftp

Once I get it, I'll plot it just like you did and then try to run it
through Grid-Stat.

Thanks,
John

Subject: regrid_data_plane: not a valid data file
From: John Halley Gotway
Time: Fri Jul 14 15:05:13 2017

Jinwoong,

I'm sorry this took so long, but the good news is that it's an easy
fix.

The "file_type" setting needs to be defined at one higher level of
context,
like this:

fcst = {

   file_type = NETCDF_PINT;

   field = [
      {
        name       = "TT";
        level      = [ "(0,0,*,*)" ];
        cat_thresh = [];
      }
   ];

}

The "fcst" section defines information about the input forecast file,
and
the "obs" section defines information about the input observation
file.

The "file_type" setting defines how to interpret these input files.
So the
code parses it from inside the "fcst" and "obs" dictionaries... not
separately for each entry in the "field" array.

Here's the note in the file met-6.0/data/config/README about this:

//   - The "file_type" entry specifies the input file type rather than
letting
//     the code determine it itself.  For valid file_type values, see
"File
types"
//     in the data/config/ConfigConstants file.

That obviously doesn't explain it well enough.  For the next release,
I'll
update it to read:

//   - The "file_type" entry specifies the input file type rather than
letting
//     the code determine it itself.  For valid file_type values, see
"File
types"
//     in the data/config/ConfigConstants file.  This entry should be
defined within
//     the "fcst" or "obs" dictionaries.
//     e.g.
//     fcst = {
//        file_type = NETCDF_NCCF;
//        ...
//     }

Thanks,
John

Hi John,

Thank you very much for your time and your kindness.
Let me apply this to my application.
I will let you know how it goes.
Thank you.

Hi John,

Inserting the "file_type = NETCDF_PINT;" above the field list line
seems to
work.
In this way I was able to process my met_em files against WRF grib2
files.

However, only TT and GHT variables were taken by the Gridstat.
It couldn't digest UU and VV variables in the met_em files.
Regarding the issue, I got WARNING and ERROR messages as below:

WARNING: process_scores() -> UU(0,0,*,*) not found in file:
/scratch/halstead/y/yoo108/NCAR_BC_met_em/met_em.d03.1976-01-
01_00:00:00.nc

ERROR  : PinterpFile::data(NcVar *, const LongArray &, DataPlane &,
double
&) const -> can't find needed dimensions(s) for variable "UU" ... one
of
the dimensions may be staggered.
In fact, I confirmed that U-wind and V-wind variables are staggered in
the
met_em grid for the WRF processing.
Do you know how I can proceed?
Thank you.
Regards,

Jinwoong

Jinwoong,

Yes, that is a severe limitation when MET reads the NetCDF output from
WRF.  It does not read variables defined on the staggered dimensions.
So
it only reads variables from mass points, not velocity points.

We recommend using the Unified Post Processor (UPP) software to
postprocess
the output of WRF.  One of the things it does is interpolate data from
the
staggered dimensions to a regular grid.  It writes output in GRIB1 or
GRIB2
format which MET handles nicely.

Thanks,
John

Hi John,


I know surface variables use "Z" and pressure level variables use "P".
How can I correctly specify the level for the below ground variables
such
as soil moisture?

Can I use "Z", "G", "L", or something else?
It is hard to find it from the Users' Guide.
I have four layers of soil moisture at the NARR data set.

Thank you very much.

Jinwoong

Subject: regrid_data_plane: not a valid data file
From: Minna Win
Time: Tue Aug 08 12:09:01 2017

Hi Jinwoong,

This is Minna, another developer on the MET team.  I have experienced
the
same issue, especially with uncommon data sets.  John showed me how to
use
MET's plot_data_plane to test whether to use 'Z', 'G', or 'L':
Try running plot_data_plane in the following manner, but replace
$MET_BIN
for the location of your MET binaries, replace <grib_file> for the
full
path to your grib1 or grib2 data file, replace <output_ps> for the
name of
the output plot,  and replace "TMP" with your variable of interest:

$MET_BIN/plot_data_plane \
<grib file> \
<output ps file> \
'name="TMP"; level="Z0";' \
-v 4

If the correct level descriptor works, then the log (output to stdout)
will
indicate that a match has been found with the record number.  I hope
this
helps.

Regards,
Minna

Hi Minna,

Thank you very much for your note.
Then, isn't there any letter specifically designated for below ground
levels?
Let me try with "Z" (i.g., "Z1",  "Z2", "Z3", and "Z4") first.
Thank you.

Regards,

Jinwoong

Hi Minna,

I tried all of them but in vain.
Interestingly, ground levels are specified as a range (e.g.,
levels=(0,200)
for 0-2m level) in the NARR grib file.
But I don't know how to put it in the command line or in the config
file.
Any idea?
Thank you.
Regards,

Jinwoong

Subject: regrid_data_plane: not a valid data file
From: Minna Win
Time: Tue Aug 08 13:25:43 2017

Hi Jinwoong,

I had to deal with uncommon levels for a recent project (ie freezing
level,
max wind speed, tropopause).  MET has support for such instances in
the
form of:

$MET_BIN/plot_data_plane \
<grib data file> \
<output ps file >\
'name="<variable>"; GRIB_lvl_typ=<type>; GRIB_lvl_val1=<value> \
-v 4

For my data, I had to look up the values for GRIB_lvl_typ using the
following GRIB1 and GRIB2 tables:

GRIB2:
http://www.nco.ncep.noaa.gov/pmb/docs/grib2/grib2_table4-5.shtml

GRIB1:
http://www.nco.ncep.noaa.gov/pmb/docs/on388/table3.html#TABLE3A

You can use wgrib or wgrib2 to see whether your variable of interest
has
information about the level:
e.g.
For grib2 data
wgrib2 GALWEM_20170602_CY00_FH06.GR2 | grep PRES

which gives:
519:658332188:d=2017060200 <%28201%29%20706-0200>:PRES:max wind:6 hour
fcst:
559:694572877:d=2017060200 <%28201%29%20706-0200>:PRES:surface:6 hour
fcst:
567:704111051:d=2017060200 <%28201%29%20706-0200>:PRES:tropopause:6
hour
fcst:

I then used the descriptions of 'max wind' and 'tropopause' to look up
the
'code figure' column value in the GRIB2 table 4-5


For example, if your data is in GRIB2, set GRIB_lvl_typ to the 'code
figure' value from table 4.5.  Following the example from above, for
'tropopause' you would set GRIB_lvl_typ=7 and  GRIB_lvl_val1=0.
Likewise
for GRIB1 data, except you would refer to ON388  TABLE 3A and set the
GRIB_lvl_typ to the value under the "Value" column.

What data are you using, and what variable and level do you need to
access?  Please let us know if you need additional clarification.

Regards,
Minna

Hi Minna,

I am using the NARR grib1 data along with WRF UPP output grib2 data.
I would like to retrieve SOILM variable for the level of 0-200 cm down
from
both of the datasets.
Below is the print out of the variable from the NARR data.

Subject: regrid_data_plane: not a valid data file
From: Minna Win
Time: Tue Aug 08 13:51:26 2017

Hi Jinwoong,

Given your GRIB1 output from wgrib, you might want to try the
following:

$MET_BIN/plot_data_plane \
<grib data> \
<output ps file> \
'name="SOILM"; GRIB_lvl_typ=112; GRIB_lvl_val1=0;' -v 4



I forgot to mention that for GRIB1, you can also look at the wgrib
output
and set GRIB_lvl_typ to the kpds6 value, in this case it is 112
(useful if
there isn't a description for you to look up and match to the "Value"
column in the ON388 table).

Regards,
Minna

Subject: regrid_data_plane: not a valid data file
From: Jinwoong Yoo
Time: Tue Aug 08 14:42:56 2017

Hi Minna,

I was able to run the command by setting as

'name="SOILM";GRIB_lvl_typ=112; GRIB_lvl_val1=0;GRIB_lvl_val2=200;'

As it is, I had to set both GRIB_lvl_val1=0  and GRIB_lvl_val2=200 to
specify the range.

Then, how can I set it in config file for GridStat?

Can I set as below?

      {

        name       = "SOILM";

GRIB_lvl_typ="112";

GRIB_lvl_val1="0";

GRIB_lvl_val2="200";

        cat_thresh = [];

      }

Thank you.

Regards,


Jinwoong

Subject: regrid_data_plane: not a valid data file
From: Minna Win
Time: Tue Aug 08 15:46:30 2017

Hi Jinwoon,

Yes, that is correct.  The GRIB_lvl_typ and
GRIB_lvl_val1/GRIB_lvl_val2 are
supported for all the MET applications that need to have a level
specified.  My apologies for forgetting to indicate that.  Hopefully,
you
can continue to use plot_data_plane to test out your levels and then
use
those values in the grid-stat and other config files.  Please let me
know
if that doesn't work for you.

Regards,
Minna

Subject: regrid_data_plane: not a valid data file
From: Jinwoong Yoo
Time: Tue Aug 08 17:53:51 2017

Hi Minna,

I set field in config file as below but I got errors and gridstat
didn't
produce any output.

      {

        name       = "SHTFL";

        level      = [ "Z0" ];

        cat_thresh = [];

      },

      {

        name       = "LHTFL";

        level      = [ "Z0" ];

        cat_thresh = [];

      },

      {

        name       = "DSWRF";

        level      = [ "Z0" ];

        cat_thresh = [];

      },

      {

        name       = "DLWRF";

        level      = [ "Z0" ];

        cat_thresh = [];

      },

      {

        name       = "USWRF";

        level      = [ "Z0" ];

        cat_thresh = [];

      },

      {

        name       = "ULWRF";

        level      = [ "Z0" ];

        cat_thresh = [];

      },

      {

        name       = "SOILM";

        GRIB_lvl_typ="112";

        GRIB_lvl_val1="0";

        GRIB_lvl_val2="200";

//      level      = [ "Z0" ];

        cat_thresh = [];

      }

Error log looks as below.

ERROR  : VarInfo::set_level_info_grib() - either level or
GRIB_lvl_typ,
GRIB_lvl_val1 and GRIB_lvl_val2 (if necessary) must be specified in
field
information


Can't I mix   level      = [ "Z0" ];       and             GRIB_lvl_*
in
one config file?
When I tested them separately for plot_data_plane, they both worked.

Thank you.
Regards,

Jinwoong

Subject: regrid_data_plane: not a valid data file
From: Jinwoong Yoo
Time: Tue Aug 08 19:11:43 2017

Hi Minna,

I noticed that GridStat runs well without the SOILM variable field in
the
config file.
However, when I ran GridStat only for the SOILM variable, it generated
the
same error.

ERROR  : VarInfo::set_level_info_grib() - either level or
GRIB_lvl_typ,
GRIB_lvl_val1 and GRIB_lvl_val2 (if necessary) must be specified in
field
information
Therefore, it seems that GridStat does not like the field statement,
which
worked with plot_data_plane:

     {

        name       = "SOILM";

        GRIB_lvl_typ="112";

        GRIB_lvl_val1="0";

        GRIB_lvl_val2="200";

        cat_thresh = [];

      }


Any idea?

Subject: regrid_data_plane: not a valid data file
From: Minna Win
Time: Wed Aug 09 11:31:05 2017

Hi Jinwoong,

Please try the following:
      {
        name  = "SOILM";
        GRIB_lvl_typ = 112;
        GRIB_lvl_val1 =0;
        GRIB_lvl_val2 = 200;
      }

Notice that there are no quotation marks for the values GRIB_lvl_typ,
GRIB_lvl_val1, and GRIB_lvl_val2 and remove the level=["Z0"] for
SOILM.
Hopefully that will work.

Regards,
Minna
