Customize CICE output

Customize CICE output#

The CICE output can changed with the namelist variables

  • histfreq: Frequency of output written to history files (‘1’, ‘m’, ‘d’, ‘y’, …)

  • histfreq_n: Frequency history data is written to history files

  • hist_avg: if false => instantaneous values, if true => time-averages

Here is how to set user_nl_cice to output an extra history file with daily values (leaving the primary history file as monthly):

     histfreq = 'm','d','x','x','x'
     histfreq_n = 1,1,1,1,1
