N inputs but N and (N-1) outputs

[ElisaBortoli]

Hi guys,
do you know why if I insert N rainfall inputs in "geotop.inpts" I get some outputs which have N length and others (N-1) length?
Running the Matlab script "load_GEOtop" I obtained, for the variables

• psiz, psiz_date, psi_t, satz, thetaicez, thetaicez_date, thetaicez_t, thetaz_t, Tz, Tz_date, Tz_t: N length
• basin, point and others: (N-1) length.

Opening the variable "basin_date" I see that it starts 1 hour after my first input.
Have someone else noticed it?
Thank you!

If you have a simulation with initdate T,
you will get the first values at time T for following files for example:
soilliqwaterpressure, soiltemp, soilicecontent, soilliqcontent
you will get the first values at time T+dt for following files:
basin, discharge, point

OK, so the Point is for soil variables we have the values for initdate, so INITIAL CONDITION:

geotop/src/geotop/input.cc

Line 1449 in eaa345c

// WRITE INITIAL CONDITION

so only
so in Input.cc we have a section which writes initial conditions and that's also the Point where the headers of the output files are written, this is true for all geotop versions.
A bit strange, right?
