NU-WRF Version 9 patch 1  (v9p1-wrf391-lis72) ("Charney") was released on 13 April 2018.
 
WHAT CHANGED:

•    Corrections to WRF 3.9.1 merge (on the recommendation of NCAR core team).
  • Move some initializations to physics init to avoid race conditions.
  • Remove file remnants from WRF 3.7.1.
  • Renamed NU-WRF diagnostics modules to conform with WRF conventions.
•   Replaced bash-based build mechanism with a python-based build system.
  • Build configuration is specified in a text fie.
  • Standardized interface to differentiate between required and optional arguments.
  • Standardized build steps (clean, configure, build, install).
•   Updated regression testing suites.
  • Corrections to various tests.
  • Added standard ARW tests.
  • Added WRF-Lake tests.
  • Added tests that perform a LIS spinup.
  • Added support for Pleiades testing.
• Upgraded Intel compiler version to 17.0.4.196.
• Upgraded GNU compiler version to 6.3.
• Updated NU-WRF User Guide.
• Updated tutorial documentation and testcases.
• Note on MET component: New compilers are incompatible with MET 6.x, so we have made a temporary revert to v5.1.
