This helps me to locate the folders easily and not delete them accidentally if they are somewhere else on the machine.ĥa) install zlib.1.8 based on WRF link above instructions step 4ĥb) install hdf5 based on WRF link above instructions step 5 The steps for NETCDF installation require the installation of zlib, hdf5, netcdf and then netcdf-fortran.

I was getting errors with the latest version. I had to install NETCDF-4.3.2 version of Fortran rather than NETCDF-4.4.0 as the link describes. I am going to rewrite the steps from the link. This was the link ( ) that I basically used which guided me home with NETCDF installation. Do a SVN check out of the source code (ROMS/COAWST) ROMS/COAWST can require subversion, GNUMAKE, Gfortran (Free Fortran compiler), Perl, Gcc, netcdf libraries.Īdd the installation path to. However a few new versions have come up of various packages after that so this can be useful. These steps are not very different from the original post that gave guidance on installing ROMS on a Linux Machine. I had recently installed the latest version of COAWST on an Ubuntu 14.04 desktop.

This post might help people with installing COAWST on their local Linux machines.
