The fort.18 file is a file with information needed for parallel (MPI) execution of ADCIRC (commonly termed PADCIRC). The file is created by the adcprep executable, which is run prior to launching a parallel ADCIRC run. The file is not located in the main run directory, but instead there is one copy of the file in each of the PE* (PE0000, PE0001, etc.) subdirectories created by adcprep.
