Error when I try to run the concentration feature

Post by Mujuni »

Hi
I have been successfully using Hysplit4 for calculating the output for both trajectory and concentration. But now when I try to run the concentration feature I am getting an error message "MGMIN set to max for meteorology grid 360." I don't know the cause of this error because I have been doing it successively and I haven't changed anything in the process. I have attached the error message for details. Anyone with an idea for the solution is highly appreciated.

Can you please post your CONTROL and SETUP.CFG file.
Also if a MESSAGE file was generated please include that.
Thank you.

It was not possible to attach that format of text that is why I had to encrypt into rar format. When I browse in order to attach, it responds invalid file extension. Kindly see the attachment for clarification

You might want to add .txt to your text filenames and attach the resulting .txt files to your post. For example, CONTROL would be CONTROL.txt.

Please set the last line in the CONTROL file to 0.
If you are using the GUI make sure you have pollutant resuspension factor set to 0.

Thank you for your help. I followed your instructions and the problem was solved. However, I am experiencing a new problem now when I run the model it is successfully run but when I click the Execute Display in order to display the results of the concentration, I am getting the following message " concoplot.ps not found, check working directory for other output files" What can I do then? I have attached the error message

Can you make sure there is a file called
cdump in your working directory?
