I am getting the following error message when CAM writes out the history file:

CSEG and Liaisons
This is an error issued by the netCDF library. CAM's default is to output 4-byte real values (can be changed via the ndens namelist variable) and the code must be generating results that can't be represented by 4-byte reals.
