<div>Hi Dan,
<div>I am not sure what the diagnostics package does in this case, but you can write pickup files with the diagnostics package that avoid this problem. These the relevant runtime parameters for data.diagnostics (from diagnostics_readparms.F):</div>

So, every 6<span><sup>th</sup> run, a diagnostics file is written, for a run that is 5 days long, with an averaging period of 30 days (Im using a model calendar if it matters). I am just wondering what diagnostics will do in this case. When a diagnostics file
is written, will it average only over the last 5 days? Will it do so, but give a value that is 6 times too small?</span></div>
