How to design a CESM2.1.3 Wildfire Simualtion?

[kwzhang]

Hi everyone,
I plan to design a set of experiments using the B1850 compset in CESM2.1.3 to investigate the wildfire.

My question is: do I need to make some necessary settings to activate the wildfire simulation?
Looking forward to get any useful information.

Best regards,
KW

The B1850 compset specifies CLM50%BGC-CROP which is CLM5 with biogeochemistry and crops active. The BGC includes a fire model which is described in the technical note:

2.24. Fire — ctsm release-clm5.0 documentation

So, you shouldn't need any special settings to invoke the fire model.
