A to-do list from AMWG says that "a version of CAM is being developed that uses a Cloud Resolving Model (CRM) embedded into each grid-box of the standard low resolution model grid". So my question is that is this super-parameterized version of CAM public available now? Can this CRM be run interactively with CESM1.0.5/CAM5.1 or it can only be run interactively with CESM1.1 and later versions?Thanks,

Jian-Last February we publically released a development version of CESM that contains the CRM.  It is available at:https://svn-ccsm-release.cgd.ucar.edu/model_development_releases/spcam2_0-cesm1_1_1There is a SPCAM-README which describes how to turn on the CRM functionality.  Please check the wiki page which is listed at the top of the SPCAM-README as it contains information about a bug and how to fix it.The CRM is currently only available in spcam2_0-cesm1_1_1
