recipe_ocean_bgc.yml error validating data with WOA18

[annapedersen]

Hello,

I'm trying to run the recipe_ocean_bgc.yml with the WOA18 data, but run into this problem. (See main_log_debug.txt)

Somehow it has problems validating the data? Is it because recipe_ocean_bgc.yml is not compliant with the WOA18 data yet?

Any advice or help is much appreciated. Have spent the last few days in the documentation trying to figure out what the problem could be.

Thank you very much in advance.

Cheers,
Anna

It looks like additional_datasets is not indented correctly in diagnostic diag_transect_vs_WOA:

  diag_transect_vs_WOA:
    description: Transect maps vs WOA
    variables:
      thetao:
        preprocessor: prep_transect_AMT
        mip: Omon
        thresholds: [0., 5., 10., 15., 20., 25., 30.]
      so:
        preprocessor: prep_transect_AMT
        mip: Omon
      no3:
        preprocessor: prep_transect_AMT
        mip: Oyr
        thresholds: [10., 20., 30.]
      si: # Silicate
        preprocessor: prep_transect_AMT
        mip: Oyr
      o2: # Oxygen
        preprocessor: prep_transect_AMT
        mip: Oyr
        thresholds: [0.03, ]
      po4:
        preprocessor: prep_transect_AMT
        mip: Oyr
      additional_datasets:
        - {dataset: WOA,  project: OBS6, tier: 2, type: clim, version: 2018, start_year: 2000,  end_year: 2000}

With this indentation, the tool thinks you are requesting a variable called additional_datasets and then stops because the content is of the wrong type (a variable should be a mapping). To correct the problem, there are two options:

1. If you would like to use the dataset with all variables in this diagnostic, you will need to remove two spaces

  diag_transect_vs_WOA:
    description: Transect maps vs WOA
    variables:
      thetao:
        preprocessor: prep_transect_AMT
        mip: Omon
        thresholds: [0., 5., 10., 15., 20., 25., 30.]
      so:
        preprocessor: prep_transect_AMT
        mip: Omon
      no3:
        preprocessor: prep_transect_AMT
        mip: Oyr
        thresholds: [10., 20., 30.]
      si: # Silicate
        preprocessor: prep_transect_AMT
        mip: Oyr
      o2: # Oxygen
        preprocessor: prep_transect_AMT
        mip: Oyr
        thresholds: [0.03, ]
      po4:
        preprocessor: prep_transect_AMT
        mip: Oyr
    additional_datasets:
      - {dataset: WOA,  project: OBS6, tier: 2, type: clim, version: 2018, start_year: 2000,  end_year: 2000}

2. If you would only like to use the dataset with variable po4 you will need to add two spaces

  diag_transect_vs_WOA:

    variables:
      thetao:

      so:
        preprocessor: prep_transect_AMT
        mip: Omon
      no3:
        preprocessor: prep_transect_AMT
        mip: Oyr
        thresholds: [10., 20., 30.]
      si: # Silicate
