Fatal Error: Insufficient data in file Open_Profile_Scalars

Question

Hi Chris,

I am running a model with climatic data from 2018169 to 2020342.

I have set a profile_boundary_condition_file to update the salinity in the lake.

My open_profile_scalar.dat file looks like this:

!---

Open profile scalar file - profile inflow scalars

!---

2  data sets

0 obsoloscent feature

Interestingly it does not throw any error at the day 2020170, but for the day 2020337 it throws the error below:

***** FATAL ERROR **** FATAL ERROR **** FATAL ERROR *****

Can you let me know what should I been looking at?

Thanks

Answer 1

You need to specify bc data for the full length of your simulation.  If you want to simulate beyond 2020337 then you need to provide data for this period
