clarity on ext_frc_type = 'INTERP_MISSING_MONTHS'

Hi all,
I have a confusion regarding

ext_frc_type = 'INTERP_MISSING_MONTHS'
and

srf_emis_type = 'INTERP_MISSING_MONTHS'

So, i want to start the model from the year 2035 (have the restart file for it)
RUN_STARTDATE" value="2035-01-01"
But the ssp585 emissions have the year 2030 and 2040.The in-between years are missing.
if i give the values of ext_frc_type and srf_emis_type as 'INTERP_MISSING_MONTHS' will the model create problem as it is unable to find the year 2035?

Regards,
Anushree

The emission files are and the namelist settings you are asking about are from chemistry group. I will move your question to the CAM-Chem forum

Hi Anushree,

The 'INTERP_MISSING_MONTHS' is the namelist variable definition you want, because the model will use the ssp585 2030 and 2040 emissions to interpolate between years to provide values in 2035.

Best,
Rebecca
