Hi,</div>

I wish to check a detail about the operation of the RBCS scheme. This is probably a very basic question, but I wish to be certain how the scheme operates. </div>

I am supplying the RBCS scheme with a single file that contains my forcing data that varies over time. The time interval between my force fields (i.e. rbcsForcingPeriod) is greater than the model timestep, which isn't ideal, but I implemented it to keep the
forcing file size practical. </div>

<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
So I wish to check if the RBCS scheme will simply interpolate my force data to the model timestep, so that my force is applied at every model timestep?</div>
