Hi,

I have a question about the pft-level variable ivt(p) and the parameters dsladlai and slatop in clm5.0

I want to know the values of ivg(p), dsladlai and slatop at a specific pft.

Is there any input file to the land that contains these variables and parameters ? I found the input data files recorded in the lnd_**.log file.

PFT physiology and parameters file = /glade/p/cesmdata/cseg/inputdata/lnd/clm2/paramdata/clm5_params.c171117.nc
surface data = /glade/p/cesmdata/cseg/inputdata/lnd/clm2/surfdata_map/surfdata_0.9x1.25_78pfts_CMIP6_simyr2000_c170824.nc

Are these the right files that contains these variable and parameters ?

Thanks

dsladlai and slatop for each pft are on the parameters file.
In the parameter file you can also find the variable "pftname".
E.g., pftname(0) = "not_vegetated", dsladlai(0) = 0, slatop(0) = 0
pftname(1) = "needleleaf_evergreen_temperate_tree", dsladlai(1) = 0.00125, slatop(1) = 0.01

ivt(p) is a pointer in the code for the pft type.
