Hi,
I'm trying to calculate canopy conductance Gc for each grid cell of a global simulation. Is it ok to use the mean conductance over multiple pfts as effective Gc for a grid assuming it's controlled by a dominant pft?
I don't know what your research needs are, but some gridcells are likely to have significantly mixed pfts within them. An alternative is to output the conductance at the pft-level.
You would add it as a history variable in subroutine InitHistory in biogeophys/EnergyFluxType.F90. By default, it will come out as a gridcell average variable. But you can specify pft-level in your user_nl_clm as a separate history stream by setting dov2xy=.false. for that stream.
