Abstract To prevent occasional failures of PGE72 generating the 16-day composite VCF intermediate product.
Problem Statement PGE failed to complete due to buffer overflow when run in a C6 Science test. In rare cases the PGE may fail in operation due to this latent bug.
Description of Change 1. Changed dimension size for table_250m, table_500m, table_1km in MOD44C.c to [][50] (# of observations per pixel will be no more than 50)2. Changed Optimization from -O3 to -O1 in MOD_PR44C.mk (value-optimize-out caused stack memory overflow problem).
Products Affected MOD44CH, MOD44CQ, MOD44CT
Software Affected PGE72 v5.0.20
Processing String to Receive the Change Terra Forward, Aqua Forward
Downstream Product Effects None.
Data Granules to be Used for Science Testing Run global test for a 16-day period from winter (2003001) and summer (2003193).2010-059.
Justification To prevent the occasional failure of PGE72.
Effective Date for Implementation of Change Completed.
Status Science test completed; results evaluated by LDOPE and Science Team. Sadashiva Devadiga approved for Land, Michael King approved on 01/14/2011.
