NCAR scientists and software engineers have integrated COSP v1.3 with local modifications in the CESM. The COSP-enabled CAM code has been released for public use with CESM1.0.4. CAM namelist options for COSP can be found http://www.cgd.ucar.edu/staff/jenkay/cosp/namelist_options.html. The easiest way to run COSP within CAM and have COSP quicklook diagnostics using the AMWG diagnostics package is:
Configure CAM with COSP (configure -cosp ...)
Set cosp_amwg=.true. in the CAM namelist
Run CAM for at least one year including months needed for DJF averaging
Run the latest version of the AMWG diagnostics package
