[RegCNET] SST dataset?

[Béatrice Morel]

Dear RegCM-users,

I would like to run RegCM over Madagascar for the period 1957-present using ERA40 for boundary and initial conditions.

As regards SST, which dataset covering the period 1957-present, should I be using?

I have downloaded the NOAA Extended Reconstructed SST "sst.mnmean.nc" file from the CDC website, but when trying and running icbc.x with that dataset, I get the following error message:

ERROR OPENING SST.RCM FILE
STOP 4810 IN PROGRAM ICBC

Could anyone help me to cope with that problem?

Many thanks by advance for your help.

Best regards,

Beatrice
