Dear CESM/CAM community,
I am aiming at using relative relative humidity output from CESM experiments. In doing so, I encountered problems (comprehension issues) with the RHREFHT field: When performing preliminary analyses (using the CESM2 Single Forcing Experiment), the relative humidity stored in the respective output RHREFHT commonly exceeded values of 100, even reaching 200 in some regions and at some times during the historical period, which is not in accordance with the typical range of relative humidity. Hence, I am wondering what this variable is expressing and how I am supposed to interpret the field.
I hope that you can help me out!
