Hi ,
I have a problem with tracers . When i use more than 551 data points it
would not work . My Tracer options are as follows
[CitcomS.solver.tracer]
tracer = 1
tracer_ic_method = 1
tracers_per_element = 20
tracer_file = ./tracer_2.dat
tracer_flavors = 2
ic_method_for_flavors = 0
z_interface = 0.7
chemical_buoyancy = off
buoy_type = 1
buoyancy_ratio = 0.4
reset_initial_composition = 0
regular_grid_deltheta = 1.0
regular_grid_delphi = 1.0

Could you please let me know what the problem is ?

Thanks,
Tannistha
