WRF Model Version 3.5 : Known Problems and Fixes

Bug fix for using 'run time control of IO stream variable sets' (posted 5/29/2013)

Problem: An error (seg-fault) occasionally occurs due to uninitialized data in the head of the linked-list, which should not be part of the traversal. This will affect any users who use the 'run time control of IO stream variable sets.'

Solution: Replace WRFV3/frame/module_domain.F with a corrected file and then recompile. There is no need to do a 'clean -a' or to reconfigure.

Bug fix for running Ideal cases em_les and em_seabreeze2d_x

Problem: Due to a code modification prior to the release of V3.5, landmask does not remain constant during these 2 cases, and causes inaccurate values for several variables. This was corrected prior to the release of V3.5.1, and therefore only applies to V3.5.

Solution: Replace WRFV3/dyn_em/module_big_step_utilities_em.F with a corrected file and then recompile. There is no need to do a 'clean -a' or to reconfigure.
