I am running the regional nesting suite on Monsoon and have set it up to output timeseries information at a point (so I can better compare to observations). It runs fine and outputs the timeseries to a fields file but the conversion to pp fails so I have to archive the fields file rather than a pp. …

Sorry - here’s an example: /home/d03/nahav/cylc-run/u-dg348/share/cycle/20230612T1800Z/UK/ukv_ITE/RAL3P2_MURK_MORUSES/um/umnsaa_roissy000

Hi Natalie um-convpp seemed to work $UMDIR/vn11.2/xc40/utilities/um-convpp umnsaa_roissy000 ~/umnsaa_roissy000.pp Any good?

Thanks Grenville. When you run the suite it seems to do to the conversion and create a pp file but when you look in it using xconv it only has the first hours worth of timesteps for the first timeseries variable. I had to dig quite deep to find the error message skipping field validation due to ir…

well, xconv shows all time steps and variables seem OK (when converted to netcdf to inspect)

Well that is good news! Let me see if I can point the nesting suite at that version of um-convpp …

I now have pp files which have all the variables and time steps in - thank you! Unfortunately iris won’t load these files. I get a ValueError: Unknown IB value for extra data: 0 If I convert the pp to netcdf using /projects/um1/Xconv/xconv1.94 then iris will load the netcdf fine. When I call a con…

I have found a version of convsh that now works. Thanks for your help with this. Natalie

Glad you have got this working - between us, we should alert the IRIS team that it doesn’t appear to handle lbcode properly.

Happy to contact the iris team and report this. Do you have an email address for them? Natalie

please point to a file that doesn’t convert.
