variable for advective tenancies

Hi,
I am looking for the variables for advective tendancies of temperature and water vapor mixing ratio at each grid point.
Is it already there in cesm? I am working on crm_physics.F90 routine and it looks like ptend_loc%q(i,:,1) tracks the tenancies for water vapor.


Regards,
Sachin

Hi Sachin,

Are you just looking to output those variables in the history file(s)? If so, you can add 'SPDT' and 'SPDQ' to your user_nl_cam using finclx.

In crm_physics.F90 I'm looking at the outfld calls in lines 1868, 1869. You are correct that the water vapor tendencies are in ptend_loc%q(:,:,1). It looks like the temperature tendencies are in ftem.

Hope that helps.

Hi,

In continuation with my earlier query, I am in search of the variables in CAM Model that tracks the advective tendencies of Temperature and moisture due to large scale dynamics (horizontal and vertical advection).
It looks like that the ptend_loc%q(:,:,1) is associated with tendancy due to CRM in SPCAM version.

Hi again Sachin,

I advise that you start in the module that performs the advection you want to track and find the tendency variables local to that module/physics package. Does that help?
