CLM spin up

[Sijia Chen]

Hello everyone, I would like to ask about the variable output method in user_nl_clm when setting up spin up. Does the output method here have to be the same as the output method during formal simulation?

Generally, we setup separate cases/simulations for spinup and "formal". So you can use different history field output approaches for each.

Thank you，dear Oleson,actually, I want to know if the fsurdat of the two case spinup and formal need to be same

Dear Oleson, how many years could i set in a spinup case
