ERA5 as first Met forcing

[slabhan1]

Hello everyone!
I'm new here and I'm trying to learn using LIS NoahMP and Hymap.

• I tried to pass ERA5 met forcing without Hymap and it worked just fine with round number domain parameters (for eg, (8,25)x(72,85)).
• However, to accommodate my Hymap domain, I cropped the domain corners by 0.025 (8.025,24.975)x(72.025,84.975). This made the LIS crash during the ERA5 reading, throwing an MPI Abort error.
• I am now using MERRA2 as first met forcing, and overlaying ERA5 and it works. I was just wondering what was causing this and if anyone has had the same issues.
  Thank you in advance!
