Dear all,
thank you for your answers and suggestions.
What I wanted to say in the previews mail (sorry if I didn't explain it in
a correct way, it probably sounded very rude!) was just that I had a number
of error messages in learning the first steps of how include GPlates
reconstruction in the ASPECT code:
When I try to run the GPlates cookbook example what I get is:
* Loading GPlates data boundary file
/home/ubuntu/aspect/data/velocity-boundary-conditions/gplates/current_day.gpml.*
* Loading new velocity file did not succeed.*
* Assuming constant boundary conditions for rest of model run.*
Does this mean that ASPECT use the current_day velocities for the entire
simulation? Or there's an error occuring when loading the velocity file?
I tried then to look for the velocity file (to see how it was built) but I
wasn't able to find the source file, neither from the ASPECT link or from
the websites mentioned in the manual (in particular, the "Global
reconstructions with continuously closing plates from 140 Ma to the present").
The error I got was:
*404 Not Found The requested URL /~gurnis/GPlates/gplates.html was not
found on this server.*
Lastly, with the manual instructions (that also Anne suggested), I tried to
build a new velocity file by myself using Seton et al., 2012 reconstruction
(that comes with GPlates software 1.5.0) but what I got was:
*An error occurred while saving the file
'lat_lon_velocity_domain_9_18.gpml': *
*ErrorOpeningFileForWritingException: Error opening file
'lat_lon_velocity_domain_9_18.gpml' for writing*
*Call stack trace:*
*(/Users/jcannon/gplates/builds/1.5/src/file-io/GpmlOutputVisitor.cc, 551)*
I am sorry if any of the mistakes I am making is basic, but I just started
to deal with the code.
Thank you in advance.
All the best,
Eleonora
