WOAMONTHLY VARIABLE NAMES about model2roms

[trondkr]

I think your WOAMONTHLY files are missing geographic information. Model2roms is failing here:

self.esmfgrid_u = ESMF.Grid(filename=self.grdfilename, filetype=ESMF.FileFormat.GRIDSPEC, is_sphere=True, coord_names=[str(confM2R.lonname_u), str(confM2R.latname_u)], add_mask=False)

Here, ESMF is looking for the variable self.lonname_v = "longitude" defined in configM2R.py in your grid file. You need to have longitude and latitude in your forcing files as well as in your grid file to have model2roms perform correctly.

I have not used WOAMONTHLY in years and have not updated its code either. For testing, I suggest you use GLORYS (link) or SODA data that have been thoroughly tested with model2roms. Or you need to obtain WOAMONTHLY data that has correct longitude and latitude information. Also, make sure you define correctly the latitude and longitude names in configM2R.py

Okay, thanks for the response. For some reason I've had trouble downloading SODA3 data; I'll try GLORYS. Hopefully I'll have some success.
