Description
Hello,
I'm experiencing a problem with temperature tracer negative values at wet-dry areas when I run a coupled WRF-ROMS simulation.
The problem does not occur if I run only ROMS, with bulk fluxes formulation.
Is there some setting for coupled simulation that I am missing?
I attached my coupled simulation files for checking.
Thank you for any help.
With best regards,
Taoan

Research direction
Start by reproducing the coupled WRF-ROMS simulation using the attached simulation.zip, then compare its temperature tracer output at wet-dry areas with the ROMS-only bulk-flux case. Check the coupled configuration for a relevant setting; done means the cause is identified and negative temperature values are no longer produced in the affected areas.
