wrf falling back on default urban morphology instead of using cglc-modis-lcz-100m dataset

[Liz490]

Describe your issue

Dear @matthiasdemuzere !

I am stuck running WRF urban using the cglc-modis-lcz_100m dataset for Germany using three one-way nested domains at 12, 3, and 1 km, respectively. I'm considering the sf_urban_physics = 2 and the hybrid 100-m global land cover dataset with Local Climate Zones. To use this dataset, I followed the instructions provided here .

Geogrid.exe, ungrib.exe, and metgrid.exe work fine, so does real.exe.
However, when I run wrf.exe, I get suspicious warnings in the rsl.error.0000 claiming that WRF does not use the LCZ data:

WARNING, FRC_URB2D = 0 BUT IVGTYP IS URBAN
WARNING, THE URBAN FRACTION WILL BE READ FROM URBPARM.TBL
USING DEFAULT URBAN MORPHOLOGY

I attached the namlist.wps, namlist.input and the rsl.error.0000 file.

I am using WRF 4.5.2 and WPS 4.5 and ensured that for both of them I am using official releases as you suggested in this post.
namelist_bochum.wps.txt

I also already followed the instructions as suggested in this WRF&MPAS-Aforums post .

Can you help finding out what is the issue?
Thank you very much for your help!

Hi, yes, we're making adjustments to use w2w with v4.5.2 and clgc-modis-lcz. We are currently working on this here #127.
The latest changes should fix this. In the meantime, you may want to use that branch for your purposes.
