Note from Chris R. on mpas start up calculation of reconstructed u,v Looks like the computation is done in this code: https://github.com/MPAS-Dev/MPAS-Model/blob/master/src/operators/mpas_vector_reconstruction.F [mpas_vector_reconstruction.F](https://github.com/MPAS-Dev/MPAS-Model/blob/master/src/operators/mpas_vector_reconstruction.F)

Note from Soyoung to add fields back into files First, you should do 'make clean' with core=init_atmosphere_model, then with atmosphere_model in your MPAS model directory. Then, for init_atmosphere_model, Add these...

Thanks for the info @syha Do you know which version of DART & version of MPAS NSSL is using/used? Also which version of MPAS JEDI is using (I think it...

may split this off into a separate scripting issue: driver_mpas_dart.csh refering to out-of-date namelist option `start_from_restart` https://github.com/NCAR/DART/blob/4b184025498952753ac4141f36a3a7d3505cbdcb/models/mpas_atm/shell_scripts/driver_mpas_dart.csh#L374-L375 Zero documentation on docs.dart.ucar.edu for the scripting.
