ESMF mesh and MOM6 domain masks are inconsistent

Ok I checked the dimensions of my access-rom3-ESMFmesh.nc and they were still the ‘low-res’ versions (i.e. 70 x 149).

So I regenerated the ESMF mesh files and ran again. I now get the same error I had logged here : ACCESS-ROM3 setup instructions - #55

FATAL from PE    86: ERROR: ESMF mesh and MOM6 domain masks are inconsistent! - MOM n, maskMesh(n), mask(n) =      306        
 1         0

FATAL from PE    82: ERROR: ESMF mesh and MOM6 domain masks are inconsistent! - MOM n, maskMesh(n), mask(n) =       81

access-om3-MOM6    0000000001B83460  mom_cap_mod_mp_in        1246  mom_cap.F90

So I’ve now generated the same error by building a config two seperate ways.

I’ve checked my ocean_mask.nc and access-rom3-ESMFmesh.nc file and they are identical.

Some questions:

  1. Does anyone know which file MOM6 domain mask refers to the have above error message?
  2. Does anyone have a config in git somewhere of the Tassie domain at 140x249 that will work out of the box?
  3. @dougiesquire - do you want to catch up some time to run me through the masking process? Will ‘automasking’ potentially solve this?

Thanks for reading
