SNICAR operation and output

Hi all,
I have a question: does SNICAR exist in CLM? I now want to use SNICAR to simulate the radiative forcing of snow/ice albedo under the influence of black carbon. I noticed that some scholars added use_snicar_frc = .true. in user_nl_clm. Is this appropriate? If I want to obtain this variable, what name should I add to the list?I roughly know that SNICAR can output the radiative forcing of snow albedo, but can it output the radiative forcing of ice albedo? I am currently studying the impact of black carbon on Arctic sea ice.
Looking forward to your reply.

Regards,
Runyu

Search for snicar in the clm5 documentation or in the development-version documentation. The search results seem the same currently:

The latest clm has an updated version of SNICAR, and we expect to update the documentation with Cenlin He's help. If you need more information than you find in the clm documentation, please reach out directly to cenlinhe@ucar.edu.
