Any tips on setting surface precipitation at each time step in CLM

Hi everyone,
I am going to carry out an experiment setting surface precipitation as prescribed values at global domain. I am currently using CESM 2.1.3 and relatively new to modifying CLM. Are there any documents or tips on modifying CLM? Thanks in advance.
Best,
Andrew

Modifying precipitation and other atmospheric forcing input to CLM is through the data atmosphere model (datm) as described here:


You could create new datm forcing files and then specify them to be read in by following:


Alternatively, you could change the incoming precipitation within the code, if your precipitation modification was simple. The code for cesm2.1.3 (although the supported release version is release-cesm2.1.5) is here:

cime/src/components/data_comps/datm/datm_comp_mod.F90

The datm mode for driving CLM is CLMNCEP.
