Hi Steve, Thanks for the updated files. I can now get it to work using the GEMPAK5.9.3 version of dcgrib2 using the corrected tables. However, even with the updated tables, versions 5.9.1 and 5.7.4 of dcgrib2 still do not decode. Perhaps I shall just recompile dcgrib2 for use in these two distributions (which are still in operational use here) unless you have another idea.

Kevin, The GEMPAK GRIB2 parameter tables use 4 numbers to define the parameter name. The 4th column is the parameter template, which allows different names to be assigned depending on the type ofaccumulation, average, ensemble etc. used. Log messages from dcgrib2 under "decode_grib2 -34" about unknown parameter mean that the decoder tables need to be updated (in particular, entries for ensemble PDTs 1 and 11 in column 4). Updated g2varswmo2.tbl and g2varsncep1.tbl tables which include the ensemble entries can be downloaded from: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/downloads/gempak/tables/ Steve Chiswell Unidata User SUpport
