nocomp fixed biogeo run with the new arctic pfts generating patch fusion warnings #1241

Open rgknox opened 2 months ago

rgknox commented 2 months ago

Here is the warning, I'm getting lots of these:

Warning. small nocomp patch wasnt able to find another patch to fuse with.
275:            0           0  3.369058051535781E-003

Is this something strange that should be stopping the model? But if this is acceptable, and we just want a sense if it is still happening, maybe FatesWarn() would be a better option. FatesWarn will stop generating the message after so many iterations.

this happens a lot in the nocomp runs I've been doing as well. Agreed that it should probably be a FatesWarn() instance.
