Hi, there     I am running CESM1.1.1.     I would like to get daily outputs of wind stress (TAUX, TAUY), but meanwhile would like to keep the monthly output of these two variables.Shall I modify the gx1v6_tavg_contents by adding two options ?2 TAUX_22 TAUY_2make it look like1 TAUX2 TAUX_21 TAUY2 TAUY_2    Please confirm or direct me how to do this. Thanks a lot! BestW

W,It turns out I did not give you complete information in my previous answer!  When I answered your question, I had assumed that we already had support in the POP2 code for TAUX_2 and TAUY_2. However, an alert colleague just pointed out to me that we do not. 
Because there is not already support for the TAUX_2 and TAUY_2 variables in the POP2 code, you will need to do some extra work in order to get the output that you want.  So in addition to the necessary modifications to your tavg_contents file as discussed above, you will also need to modify a copy of the forcing.F90 file in your $CASE/SourceMods/src.pop2 directory.  See the POP2 FAQ for information on how to do this:http://www.cesm.ucar.edu/models/cesm1.1/pop2/doc/faq/#developer
