[MITgcm-support] Using pkg/calendar with diagnostics

[Samar Khatiwala]

Hi,

I'd like to write out monthly mean diagnostics and I was wondering how I can accomplish that with the calendar 
package. Looking at diagnostics_write.F it would seem all I have to do is specify a nominal averaging frequency 
of, say, 86400*30.5 = 2635200.0 and set calendarDumps=.TRUE. in data.cal. But that seems suspiciously easy! 

Also, I came across a previous thread (http://mitgcm.org/pipermail/mitgcm-support/2012-June/007789.html) about 
half-day shifts when writing such diagnostics. Is this issue fixed now?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!
