Hi,
That's right, its generally an easy fix, however, unfortunately WPS does not interpolate all the Era-Interim variables to WRF grid e.g T2, U10 and V10. To output these vars i probably would need to make changes in V-table and/or at some other places and may also need to recompile WPS. I am not sure if i can take values of the first level of TT, UU and VV from met_em_d0* with any degree of confidence but i would appreciate if you could share your experience on this.

Cheers,

Hi,
You should ingest the ECMWF data into the WRF Preprocessing System (WPS), which will put the data on the WRF 3-km grid. There is no need to regrid.

Hello,
I want to regrid Era Interim Reanalysis  data (0.75 x 0.75 deg)  to my high resolution WRF gird (3 km). Just wondering which regridding/interpolation function is best to use for this purpose. I know there are heaps of functions and regridding scripts available but could not find anything that suits my requirement. WRF has a curvilinear grid while Era-Interim Re-analysis (if i am not wrong) uses Gaussian grid. I would greatly appreciate if anyone have the script and would like to share it.
Thanks in advance
Best regards,
basit
