Brief summary of bug
The FATES successful_ignitions option should pass lightning data to FATES, but it currently sets fates_fire_no_data_type as the fire method.
General bug information
CTSM version you are using: ctsm5.4.038
Does this bug cause significantly incorrect results in the model's science? Yes
Details of bug
This was discovered while trying to answer NGEET/fates#1562. During discussion with the author, it was noted that the current version sets the no data type for the fates_fire_data_method:
|
case (successful_ignitions) |
|
allocate(fates_fire_no_data_type :: fates_fire_data_method) |
The version the author is using (ctsm5.3.012), is inclusive of the successful_ignitions option:
|
case (lightning_from_data:anthro_suppression) |
|
allocate(fates_fire_data_type :: fates_fire_data_method) |
I believe the code should be updated to reinstate successful_ignitions as an option.
Note that this namelist option does not have a test, in part, due to #1266.
