`SELECT_SUBAREA` cannot be disabled #613

Open jfrost-mo opened 4 months ago

jfrost-mo commented 4 months ago

Describe the bug

SELECT_SUBAREA cannot be disabled currently, and crashes the recipes if it is.

How to reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behaviour:

  1. Set SELECT_SUBAREA=False in rose-suite.conf
  2. Run the workflow with the LFRic recipes
  3. See that all the jobs fail with KeyError: ('Variable without a value.', '$SUBAREA_LAT_BOUND_BOTTOM')

Expected behaviour

Disabling the subarea should allow running with the full domain.

Environment

Can currently work around by putting large limits in, such as -180 to 180.

From @daflack:

A workaround is documented in the issue but might be helpful to add to the documentation until fixed under “common errors”.

I would also rephrase to “set to large numbers that encompass your entire domain” (e.g. UKV on native grid coordinates has longitudes around 360+ so if following the numbers in the guidance you would not get any cubes).
