What happened? What did you expect to happen?

Hello everyone! I'm getting an error when running GEOS-Chem for a global scale simulation. In my HEMCO_Config.rc file, I have scaled emissions for 33 regions around the globe, and the file is a separate ASCII file ending with the suffix .txt that specifies country/region-specific scaling factors. The specific error message reported is shown below.

What are the steps to reproduce the bug?

After I execute the "./gcclassic" command, the following is displayed:

Please attach any relevant configuration and log files.

The relevant configuration files have been uploaded. If you need any other files, please let me know. Thank you.
HEMCO_Config.rc.txt

14.0

What environment were you running GEOS-Chem on?

Local cluster

What compiler and version were you using?

gcc 10.2

Will you be addressing this bug yourself?

Yes

In what configuration were you running GEOS-Chem?

GCClassic

What simulation were you running?

Full chemistry

As what resolution were you running GEOS-Chem?

4 × 5。No nested grids.

What meterology fields did you use?

Thanks for writing @shanguanrain. I think the issue may be that most HEMCO inputs need to be in netCDF format. You might need to convert your text file to netCDF.

Please see the following documentation for more information about netCDF.

• Work with netCDF files
• Prepare COARDS-compliant netCDF files
