Porting WRF-SFIRE fuel moisture model to WRF4

Progress

• I started branch fuel-moisture-model from branch develop as recommended in WRF instructions.
• Cherry pick f8193dad36 2011-09-25 adding moisture variables and 5a6c4b8c06 2011-09-26 21:55:09 using variable fuel moisture in fmc_g. Making minimal changes against original. I had to check and understand any changes not just resolve the conflicts. Hard to automate. So that took a bit of time.
• I created tag fuel-moisture-model-added-fmc_g at 132444f0db6754417 . The result should
  • give the same numbers as code build by checking out tag wrf-develop-baseline when fire_fmc_read=1 in namelist.input or not set
  • take fmc_g from wrfinput when fire_fmc_read=0
  • next: read from file when fire_fmc_read=2

Should I swap 0 and 1?

The original plan (one out of several actually)

Too much complexity. There were quite a few conflicts already in cherry pick to 3cdb542af7ce submitted to 3.3 where not much changed. After a day or so, I decided I may as well do it right.

• check out 26d8a8f91cad4 release_v3.3 branch release_v3.3
• copy over fire model files from 3cdb542af7ce submitted to 3.3
• commit as 4e7a17952e22a v3.3 with fire as submitted
• create branch v3.3_with_fire_as_submitted
• revert the commit to get e69ed0d635b4 the change from submitted to release 3.3
• check out 3cdb542af7ce submitted to 3.3
• create branch moisture-model-port
• apply the fuel moisture model commits
• test with v3.3 input files
• apply? the change from submitted to release 3.3
• test with v3.3 input files
• upgrade by merge with 093ea6274f0d0 v4.0.3
• upgrade by merge with branch develop
• test with v4.0 input files
