An error occurred after replacing the restart file with interpinic:active pft found on inactive column

[xzeng]

What version of the code are you using?
I am using the clm4.5 module in the RegCM-Chem model, I turned on the CN module and the NITRIF_DENITRIF module.


Describe every step you took leading up to the problem:
I first enabled the CN module and the NITRIF_DENITRIF module of clm4.5 using the RegCM-Chem-yibs model, then run after a month to generate the restart file test1.clm.regcm.r.2020060100.nc, then use the website given using spin under different configuration files to replaced my restart file and then restarted the operation, but an error was reported.

This is my command to change the restart file:
./interpinic -i clmi.I1850CRUCLM45BGC.0241-01-01.360x720cru_hcru_simyr1850_c130515.nc -o test1.clm.regcm.r.2020060100.nc

These are the used spin files, but all of them report errors when re-running:

Hi Xin,

I have moved this post to the CLM forum, as they will be the group that can most likely find a solution to your error.

Thanks, and have a great day!

Unfortunately, we don't support that model (RegCM-Chem-yibs) and I don't see that code (mod_clm_reweight.F90) anywhere in our repository. We don't use interpinic anymore, interpolation is done at run time in the CTSM code.

We do have some similar code in our repository that seems to be checking for the same or similar thing, e.g., "ERROR: active patch found on inactive column" in subroutine set_active. Given the error you are getting, interpinic may not be robust in interpolating a global initial file to a regional initial file as it appears you are trying to do. You may need to fix the problem in the initial file manually, e.g., make those particular columns active. Or possibly conduct a land-only spinup which would be cheaper than spinning up a regional model with an acitve atmosphere.
