There's an incorrect type error in idea_solar_heating.f https://github.com/NOAA-SWPC/WAM/blob/421547ea7ce97e53c0ba404b17e32f2eef5a97b0/src/phys/idea_solar_heating.f#L259 that leads to dayno being interpreted as effectively 0 in the subroutine solar_heat_dissociation_TIEGCM. As a result, sfeps is always a little over 1.03363, while the value should vary like this according to day of year:

a difference of almost 6.5% in the NH summer.
A branch bugfix/solar_heating will be pushed shortly -- we should identify the impact on the model.

The influence of the 'dayno' bugfix on total number density & TEC has been checked with two WAM-IPE free runs for June 2015 with real-time drivers. The ratios (bugfix/ori) of the monthly mean of total number density at 400km and TEC had been described in the following plots.
The following plots are the monthly mean (June 2015) total number density at 400km by the dayno_fix code and the original code respectively.
