Parameter Name Default Value Data Type Group CASEROOT File Valid Values Description
COMP_ATM cam char case_comp env_case.xml ['cam']
Name of atmospheric component
CAM_CPPDEFS UNSET char build_component_cam env_build.xml []
CAM cpp definitions (setup automatically - DO NOT EDIT)
CAM_DYCORE fv char build_component_cam env_build.xml ['eul', 'fv', 'fv3', 'se']
CAM dynamical core
CAM_CONFIG_OPTS char build_component_cam env_build.xml []
      CAM configure options, see CAM configure utility for details
      Provides option(s) for the CAM configure utility.
      CAM_CONFIG_OPTS are normally set as compset variables (e.g., -phys  cam4 -chem waccm_ma)
      and in general should not be modified for supported compsets.  It is recommended that if you want
      to modify this value for your experiment, you should use your own user-defined
      component sets via using create_newcase with a compset_file argument
    
CAM_NML_USE_CASE UNSET char run_component_cam env_run.xml []
CAM namelist use_case.  Provides the use_case option for the
      CAM build-namelist utility (which is called from
      $CASEROOT/Buildconf/cam.buildnml).  The CAM build-namelist
      leverages groups of namelist options (use cases) that are often
      paired with the CAM configure options.  These use cases are xml
      files located in
      $CIMEROOT/../components/cam/bld/namelist_files/use_cases.
      In general, this variable should not be modified for supported
      component sets (compsets).  Recommendation: If you want to
      modify this value for your experiment, use your own user-defined
      component sets.
CAM_NAMELIST_OPTS char run_component_cam env_run.xml []
CAM specific namelist settings for -namelist option Provides
      options to the -namelist argument for the CAM build-namelist
      utility.  This should be reserved for component set
      specification. Users should modify CAM namelists only via the
      $CASEROOT/user_nl_cam file.
CAM_USER_MODS char run_component_cam env_case.xml []
User mods to apply to specific compset matches.
