How can I set CCSM4 for 30 years simulation

Hi,

I am using CCSM4 as well as CAM4 and have successfully ported model to my linux cluster and passed all port validation test.

I run the model for 5 years by set nyears and N_stop = 5. But the model always start from 2001 jan and run upto 2005. Now I want to run model for 30 years to validated climatology and also need to run control run. I want to runn model from from 1978 to 2008. How can I set these dates in env_run.xml file. Do I need to set some thing else where?

If you use the compset: F_AMIP_CN, you will get an AMIP starting in 19790101 and ending in 2005.
Fo instance:
./create_newcase -case $CASE -mach $MACH -res f19_f19 -compset F_AMIP_CN

If you want to run to the end of 2008, you need new datasets for greenhouse gases, prescribed aerosol, prescribed ozone and plan functional type as the datasets currently end in 2005:

bndtvghg = '/fis/cgd/cseg/csm/inputdata/atm/cam/ggas/ghg_hist_1765-2005_c091218.nc'
prescribed_aero_file = 'aero_1.9x2.5_L26_1850-2005_c091112.nc'
prescribed_ozone_file = 'ozone_1.9x2.5_L26_1850-2005_c091112.nc'
fpftdyn = '/fis/cgd/cseg/csm/inputdata/lnd/clm2/surfdata/surfdata.pftdyn_1.9x2.5_simyr1850-2005_c091108.nc'
 
Hi,

Thanks for the reply. Well when I use the case you mention I get following information from shell. It seems that then compset is not available in CCSM4.

Can you let me know how to proceed.


[sislam@cluster scripts]$ ./create_newcase -case amip -mach unbc -res f19_f19 -compset F_AMIP_CN

Hi Hanny,

I tried to run compset thinking that it will automatically run from 1850 to 2000. but when i checked the env_run.xml file It is again running for only 5 days





Can i put any start and stop date for my runs some where in yyyymmdd format.

You run is not automatically going to run for 150 years.
You need to adjust the length of the run, depending on the machine you use, the number of processors, etc, ... You can also set in env_run.xml how many times you resubmit your run.

For instance, if you set :
./xmlchange -file env_run.xml -id RESUBMIT -val '75'
./xmlchange -file env_run.xml -id STOP_OPTION -val 'nyears'
./xmlchange -file env_run.xml -id STOP_N -val '2'

You will do a 2-year run and after the 2-year are completed, you will automatically resubmit your job. In the example above, you will resubmit it 75 times (enough to cover a 150 years period)

F_AMIP_CN is only available in CESM1.

If you run CCSM4, you can use F_AMIP_2DEG or F_AMIP_1DEG

As, you mentioned, my question is how can I get new dataset? I also want to run the model from 1979 to 2009. I'd really appreciate your reply.

Hi,Siraj!I also want to run the model from 1979 to 2009. Can you tell how to deal with the new dataset when I create the new case? I'd really appreciate you suggestion.

The 2005-2009 datasets haven't been released yet. A this stage, you have the option to wait for the release or to create your own datasets.
