How do I specify the historical output variables for CPL?

Hi everyone,

I am using B1850 from CESM2.1.3. I want to export the daily SST received by CPL from POP. So, I set AVGHIST_OPTION=ndays and AVGHIST_N=1.

With this setup, the model is able to successfully output o2xavg_So_t. However, the model also outputs a lot of variables that I don't need, which takes up a lot of storage space. How do I set it to only output the specific variable o2xavg_So_t?

Look forward to any useful information.

Best regards,

KW

Hi KW,

You can further configure the output by setting the histavg_<component> namelist variables in user_nl_cpl to false, which are all defaulted to true.

The variable you want is in the ocean set, so adding this to user_nl_cpl should give you just the ocean variables (which will be more than just o2xavg_So_t, but will be fewer than what you're currently getting!)

histavg_atm = .false.
histavg_glc = .false.
histavg_ice = .false.
histavg_lnd = .false.
histavg_ocn = .true.
histavg_rof = .false.
histavg_wav = .false.
histavg_xao = .false.

Hope that helps!

Dear Courtney,

Thank you for your reply! It works in CESM2.1.3.

Do you know how to solve this problem in CESM1.2.2? I did not find this namelists in drv_in in CESM1.2.2.

Look forward to any useful information.

Best regards,

KW
