    forrtl: error (73): floating divide by zero

    I have build a default cam with compset (F_1850-PDAY_CAM5) with default SST and SIC. I have started the model from 1950. It run till 1953-09-07 and after this date model crashed. Please find the last few lines of error in cesm.log file mentioned below. Please see the README.case file to know the...

    Build Issue with CAM5 and COSP

    Hello, I'm trying to run a simple pre-industrial control test case with CESM1.2.2 and CAM5 with COSP enabled but I'm running into an error at the build step. For reference, I have no problems running B-compsets with CAM4 and COSP on my machine, this build error only arises when I use CAM5...

    Aerosol optical depth in CESM LME

    I have recently been looking at the paper Climate variability and change since 850 CE (Climate Variability and Change since 850 CE: An Ensemble Approach with the Community Earth System Model) and the corresponding data sets that go with it at www2.cesm.ucar.edu/models/experiments/LME. What I...

    How to change the dynamic variables in CAM

    Hello, I want to change the dynamic variables, such as temperature or wind, in particular model time. I found that dyn_in and dyn_out are used to contain the dynamic variables, thus dyn_out%t3 represent the temperature field. But after I overwrite/change the values of the dyn_out%t3, it seems...

    Prescribing ozone in B1850LENS compset (CAM5)

    I have some issues with prescribing ozone produced from WACCM simulation as an input into CESM1-LE (CAM5). Specifically, I cannot get the model to read the ozone file in "SERIAL" mode (all 150 years). Here are the details of the run and errors. I use the B1850LENS compset from CESM1-LE with...

    NetCDF: Numeric conversion not representable pio_support::pio_die:: myrank= -1 : ERROR:

    I'm running CESM 1.2.2 with CAM5+trop_mam3+prescribed_emit ncl. After the task completed, I checked the atm.log file and cesm.log file and found these problems below: This is from atm.log file: And one from cesm.log file: It seems that some strange data have been written into the file, but I...

    (shr_sys_abort) ERROR:phys_ctl_readnl: ERROR reading namelist

    Hi there, I can successfully build a case, but after I submit the case, it completed very quickly (running about 5 minutes). I checked the atm.log file, it shows the problem below. I have checked the atm_in file and compared it with my script to check the variable name I used, and I didn't find...

    How to get the result of cloud water path for different tags?

    Hi! I want to got the Total grid-box cloud ice water path (TGCLDIWP) or cloud water path for different tags. I added the output variable in the same way: fincl1="TGCLDIWP_NAO","TGCLDIWP_PAC"...... However, when I submit the simulation, it will report an error: FLDLST: TGCLDIWP_NAO in fincl( 1...

    slflx_cg_PBL seems empty; possible to output counter-gradient flux?

    I am analyzing terms that contribute to the vertical mixing temperature tendency DTV in CESM1-CAM5, and in particular would like to get a measure for the counter-gradient flux of heat / non-local transport. slflx_cg is defined as kvh * cgh, the eddy diffusivity of heat times the counter-gradient...

    How to calculate precipitation water vapor(PWV) from different source?

    Hi~ I used the iCESM1.2 to simulate water vapor from different regions. The results include precipitation(PRECC,etc), H2O isotope mmr for VAPOR,H2O isotope mmr for LIQUID, etc. How can I get the precipitable water vapor(PWV) from different source? Only the Total (vertically integrated)...

    What contributes to DTV, the vertical mixing temperature tendency?

    I am analyzing the temperature tendency contributions over continental North America and the ice-covered Arctic during winter in CAM5 (CESM1-CAM5, F_1850_CAM5 compset with prescribed SSTs and sea ice, constant pre-industrial CO2), often within the first couple of model layers near the surface. I...

    Output variables from RRTMG (totuflux)

    Hello, I am running CAM5.3.01 (CESM 1.2.2) model and I would like to output far infrared variables from rrtmg and specifically the upward long wave flux (w/m2) (dimensions: (0:nlayers)) — totuflux. I changed the file /models/atm/cam/src/physics/rrtmg/ext/rrtmg_lw/rrtmg_lw_rtrn.f90, I attache...

    The input data about the volcanic sensitive experiment

    Hi, everyone. I plan to conduct some sensitive experiments related to volcanic eruptions with CESM1.2(CAM5) and CESM2.2(CAM6). I have known that sulfur dioxides on behalf of a volcanic eruption can be input to CESM-WACCM, while the computing resources of WACCM are too huge. I wonder how the...

    CAM5 within CESM1.2.2 yields RELHUM as high as 140%

    Hi everyone, I am trying to run CAM5-CESM1.2.2 to compare with my previous CAM4 results regarding LGM climate. However, using the same topography file, surfdata, SST and sea ice condition while starting up a fresh run, the model blew up after around 3 yearswith the following error message. The...

    Total Solar Irridiance Modification in CAM5

    Hello, I am trying to run a series of perturbed parameter experiments using CESM1.2.2 with a reduced solar constant. Using the B1850CN compset (with CAM4) I can modify the namelist parameter 'solar_const' in the user_nl_cam file with ease. However, when using the same compset with CAM5...

    How to convert emissions (molecules/cm2/s) to mass emission (kg/m2/s)?

    Hello, I have the input data for B2000CAM5CN (e.g. ar5_mam3_oc_surf_2000_c090726.nc). The unit for OC emission is molecules/cm2/s. I want to compare the emissions from EDAGR (emission unit is [kg/m2/s]) and that from CESM input data. So, how can I convert [molecules/cm2/s] to [kg/m2/s]? I...

    Try to modify the value of albedo to calculate radiative forcing

    Dear all, My research requires me to modify the value of land or soil albedo to calculate the change of radiative foring as a simulation. I use the user_defined compset while all the other components except cam5 are stub, as the PORT guide https://wiki.ucar.edu/display/port/PORT explains. Now...
