Vlat_file

[solomonsg]

Dear David,

I start learning and working with rapid and found it very helpful. I have prepared all the input files but i don't know how to merge river networks (.shp) and runoff data to be in Vlat_file. do you have any script or any method to combine these files? in addition, the runoff data i have is surface and baseflow.

Thanks for your help

Solomon

Dear David, I used ncks -A to merge the two files but I am getting another error "Fortran runtime error: Cannot open file './rapid_namelist'"

Dear Solomon, Thank you for your interest in RAPID and welcome to its community of users! I do all my pre- and post-processing for RAPID using the Python toolbox located at: https://github.com/c-h-david/rrr. You might want to take a look at that in addition to this repository. The "rapid_namelist" error that is shown above is because RAPID looks for a file called "rapid_namelist" at execution. This is where you specify all the variables and file names. You can either use a file with this exact name, or create a symbolic link (a shortcut) between rapid_namelist and whatever file you want to use. I hope this helps! Cedric

Dear David,

Thanks and running it as "./rapid ./rapid_namelist" helps, but I think NCO and CDO are not helpful to merge runoff and river network as required by RAPID? can you please share the tool you are using to merge the files. this is what I am now

Best regards,

Solomon

Dear Solomon, You should look into the two bash scripts at https://github.com/c-h-david/rrr/blob/master/tst/tst_pub_dwnl_David_etal_2019_GRL.sh and https://github.com/c-h-david/rrr/blob/master/tst/tst_pub_repr_David_etal_2019_GRL.sh. The former downloads example data and the latter reproduces all the processing steps involved in a recently-published paper. Specifically, two scripts are used for transforming runoff grids into RAPID inflows: rrr_cpl_riv_lsm_lnk.py and rrr_cpl_riv_lsm_vol.py. At this point this is probably your best bet. I do not have a users' manual for RRR, but at least this gives you an idea of how the programs are used. Best, Cedric

Hi David,

Thanks for the scripts. I finally manged to create the runoff file but when i run rapid i am not getting the full output. the input runoff file is daily from 1979-2016 and this is what i am getting now

Checked for missing connections between basin studied and rest of domain

Cumulative time for routing only Rank : 0, Time : 0.00 Output data created

type of vector: seq type of matrix: seqaij type of KSP : richardso type of PC : ilu Rank : 0, Max KSP : 0

I am using gfortran (7.3.0) and it is F95 not F90.

I am attaching the namelist and input and output files. Rapid.zip

Best regards,

Solomon

Hi Solomon This looks like RAPID is not doing any kind of routing computations, so it may be that the namelist has a time step or total duration issue. Cedric
