How to choose a resolution for 'ISSP370Clm50BgcCrop'

[Yuan Sun]

Hi all,

I plan to run a land-only compset 'ISSP370Clm50BgcCrop'. I am not sure which resolution is suitable as there is no suggested grid listed: CESM2.2.0 Component Sets Definitions.

I learned from 'IHistClm50BgcCrop' that it has scientifically supported grids 'f09_g17'. Does this resolution make sense?

Besides 'f09_g17', I also found 'f09_f09_mg17', but not decided yet.

Thanks for any comments.

Best,
Yuan

The choice of resolution is your decision and it likely depends on the purpose of your research.

For the urban work that I know you are doing here, I would suggest f09_g17. That is the "workhorse" resolution for the release version of the model.
