<p class="MsoNormal">Hello Deborah,<br>
<br>
looking at your parfile you are regridding every 288 but the coarsest<br>
level steps at every 64 and with the 2 freezing options you will have<br>
the regrid only happen at the smallest common multiple which would be<br>
9*288.<br>
<br>
You may want to try setting this to 256 instead.<br>
<br>
Yours,<br>
Roland<br>
