prescribed dust in coupled simulations

[shineng_hu@gmail_com]

Hi Guys,I wanted to run ocean-atmosphere coupled simulations with prescribed dust including its seasonal cyle. Any suggestions on which compset I should use? Can B_1850_CN work? Do I need to change anything in the namelist?And how CAM4 and CAM5 are different in dealing with the prescribed dust?Thanks a lot!Shineng

I am not sure about the details. A lot of the default comp sets have prescribed aerosols, and that all the prescribed aerosols will include the seasonal cycle of the dust.

The dust aerosol in CAM4 is prescribed. while dust aerosol in CAM5 is calculated online.
