Branch run output format question.

Dear all,I am using CESM 1.0.6 to run a 90 day branch simulation in a cluster computer. I followed all the directions in the manual and the branch run is running. However I am getting a weird output which is different from the startup run output.In my startup run I set: empty_htapes           =.true. avgflag_pertape= 'I' fincl1                 = 'O3', 'O', 'O2', 'O1D', 'N', 'NO', 'N2O', 'NO3', 'NO2', 'N2O5', 'HNO3',  'CO', 'CO2', 'CH4', 'CL', 'BR', 'H', 'OH', 'HO2', 'H2O', 'H2', 'HO2NO2', 'H2O2', 'H2O_CHMP', 'H2O_CHML',  'jo3_a', 'jo3_b', 'jo2_a', 'jo2_b', 'SZA', 'HORZ', 'VERT', 'NETDT', 'ASDIF', 'ASDIR', 'ALDIR', 'ALDIF', 'SOLIN', 'SOLL', 'SOLS', 'SOLLD', 'SOLSD', 'SRFRAD', 'QRLNLTE', 'QNO', 'QRL_TOT', 'QRS_TOT', 'QRSC', 'QRLC', 'FSNS', 'FSNSC', 'FSDSC', 'FSDS', 'FUSC', 'FDSC', 'FLNS', 'FLDS', 'FLNT', 'FLNSC', 'FLDSC', 'FULC', 'FDLC',  'T', 'TS', 'TS1', 'TS2', 'TS3', 'TS4', 'TSICE', 'SST', 'SICTHK', 'PS', 'U', 'V', 'OMEGA', 'Z3',                           'VFLX', 'VU', 'OMEGAV', 'OMGAOMGA', 'OMEGAT', 'OMEGAU', 'UFLX', 'VFLX', 'FU', 'FV' fincl2                 = ' ' fincl3                 = ' ' fincl4                 = ' ' fincl5                 = ' ' fincl6                 = ' ' mfilt                  = 24 nhtfrq                 = -1 inithist               = 'MONTHLY' And I get 1 output file per model day. In the branch run I keep exactly the same settings, however instead of 1 output file per model day, I get 10 ouput files per model day.e.g365TidallyLocked1.cam2.h0.2000-04-06-00360.nc365TidallyLocked1.cam2.h0.2000-04-06-09000.nc365TidallyLocked1.cam2.h0.2000-04-06-17640.nc365TidallyLocked1.cam2.h0.2000-04-06-26280.nc365TidallyLocked1.cam2.h0.2000-04-06-34920.nc365TidallyLocked1.cam2.h0.2000-04-06-43560.nc365TidallyLocked1.cam2.h0.2000-04-06-52200.nc365TidallyLocked1.cam2.h0.2000-04-06-60840.nc365TidallyLocked1.cam2.h0.2000-04-06-69480.nc365TidallyLocked1.cam2.h0.2000-04-06-78120.nc Does anyone know how can I fix this?Any help would be appreciated,Beth

if you set in yoru branch run:
mfilt                  = 24
nhtfrq                 = -1you should have 1 fiel per day.Please could you attach the cam namelist atm_in that is in yoru run directroy (for the branch run)

Dear Hannay,I have attached the atm_in as you requested. Beth

Did you have time to look at the file that I attached as you requested on Thursday Hannay?Does anyone know how such a problem can be fixed? Beth

Hi Beth,Yes I looked at your files and I don't have an explanation. I tried to reporduce the probem and it works fine for me. It is difficult to debug if I cannot reproduce the problem. 
I was hoping you were running on yellowstone so I coudl look at your files. But it looks like you are running on another machine.Cecile

Dear Cecille,Thank you. I am a PhD student in a swiss university, therefore I do not have any access to the Yellowstone machine. I am Do you know in which other files could I look to identify the problem apart from the atm_in one? Beth
