Field name T_REF2M_24 (added by me) not found - extract_accum_field_sl ERROR

[mariuslam]

Hi,

I tried to create a 24h accumulated 2m temperature variable by copying the way it was done for the vegetation temperature (T_VEG24) in TemperatureType.F90, except that I replaced "runmean" by "timeavg". I did not change anything in the src_clm40 folder.
I got the following error message during CTSM initialization : "extract_accum_field_slERROR: field name T_REF2M_24 not found ENDRUN: ERROR: Accumulation field not found".

I am running single site CTSM-Fates, from a cold start. The compset is 2000_DATM%GSWP3v1_CLM50%FATES_SICE_SOCN_MOSART_SGLC_SWAV and further setup details can be found in FATES_DROUGHT_HYDRO.sh attached.

I would be very thankful if anyone has a clue of what is going on here.
Thanks in advance,

Marius Lambert, University of Oslo

It looks like there is a limit of 8 characters for the name of the accumulation fields. You are using 10 (T_REF2M_24). So it is probably looking for T_REF2M_.
You could try shortening the name.
