Continuing a run using NCAR's "branch" utility and the run_acme.csh script:
- Create a new case/build a new executable run to branch from using the "run_acme.csh" style script that Peter Caldwell and Philip Cameron-Smith (Unlicensed) created for this:
- git clone https://github.com/ACME-Climate/SimulationScripts.git,
- cd SimulationScripts/serving_as_a_template/recommended,
- modify run_acme.template.csh as needed
- replace "template" in name with better descriptor,
- copy file to non-git directory (if desired)
- change stuff in file as needed. I can't say what you will want to change since each simulation is different, but at least think about:
- change run_name
- Change run length/restart freq/output freq. By default the code you just downloaded runs 5 days with daily atm output, then stops without writing any restart files.
- execute run_acme...csh and make sure it completes without errors
- Modify your run_acme...csh script to do the following:
- change run_name to reflect the name you want to use for the continuation of the run.
- change model_start_type to "branch"
- change restart_files_dir to reflect the "run" directory containing the restart files you want to use to restart your run.
- execute run_acme...csh again.
