Question about finding the output of landunit type

[Houhhu]

Hi!
I want to obtain the landunit type in output files.But I dont find a suitable variable name in surfdata or initdata.
I get some information on the history file like:

global attributes:
:title = "CLM History file information" ;
:comment = "NOTE: None of the variables are weighted by land fraction!" ;
:Conventions = "CF-1.0" ;
:history = "created on 08/08/23 20:50:47" ;
:source = "Community Land Model CLM4.0" ;
:hostname = "myintel" ;
:username = "wink" ;
:version = "release-clm5.0.03" ;
:revision_id = "$Id: histFileMod.F90 42903 2012-12-21 15:32:10Z muszala $" ;
:case_title = "UNSET" ;
:case_id = "test_2000" ;
:Surface_dataset = "surfdata_1.9x2.5_78pfts_CMIP6_simyr2000_c170824.nc" ;
:Initial_conditions_dataset = "clmi.I2000Clm50BgcCrop.2011-01-01.1.9x2.5_gx1v7_gl4_simyr2000_c180715.nc" ;
:PFT_physiological_constants_dataset = "clm5_params.c171117.nc" ;
:ltype_vegetated_or_bare_soil = 1 ;
:ltype_crop = 2 ;
:ltype_UNUSED = 3 ;
:ltype_landice_multiple_elevation_classes = 4 ;
:ltype_deep_lake = 5 ;
:ltype_wetland = 6 ;
:ltype_urban_tbd = 7
:ltype_urban_hd = 8 ;
:ltype_urban_md = 9 ;

I wonder if I can find the type of landunit on each coulmn, particularly regarding to the ecosystem type, such as forest, grassland, farmland.
Best

If I am understanding your question, you probably need to output clm history in vector format instead of gridded. You can learn about that here:
