[MITgcm-support] activating the cfc package, CFC input history and netCDF output

[Karsten Friis]

Hi Steph, Ed et al.

I try to activate your cfc package in an offline run with netCDF output...

Following the online documentation to do so,
I edited the file 'packages.conf' by adding 'cfc'
and I edited the file 'data.pkg' by adding 'useCFC=.TRUE.'

If I compile and run this I get the following error message:

(PID.TID 0000.0001) // Parameter file "data.pkg"
(PID.TID 0000.0001) // 
=======================================================

--------------------------------------------------------

In short I don't know how to proceed now.

Where to put the atmospheric input history file(s)?
Which other files have to be edited?
Is is problematic to add the CFC data to the netCDF output?

Even though from your code it seems to me that the amtopheric CFC input 
file 'cfc1112.atm' is created I also copied the OCMIP(II) CFC input 
file, hoping that this will work (which did not so far), if I once knew 
where to put it.

The OCMIP file:
-------------------------------------------------------
  % Atmospheric lifetimes are  44.0 for CFC-11
  %                       and 125.0 for CFC-12
  % rel=  0
  %        <-Northern Data-> <-Southern Data->
  % Year    CFC-11  CFC-12    CFC-11  CFC-12
  %         (ppt)   (ppt)      (ppt)   (ppt)
  1931.50    0.00    0.00       0.00    0.00
  1932.50    0.00    0.01       0.00    0.01
  1933.50    0.00    0.02       0.00    0.01
....
  1996.50  265.25  534.81     261.08  523.50
  1997.50  263.84  537.67     260.16  528.18
  1998.00  263.84  537.67     260.16  528.18
------------------------------------------------------

Can you tell me how to go on, or if there is more documentation, this 
would be nice...

Best wishes,

-karsten
