Another way that you might want to spinup the model is to run your own simulation for a relatively short period (either a B, E, or F compset) and then use it as forcing for your "I" case later. By only running 20 to 50 years for the fully coupled case, you'll save a substantial amount of computer time rather than running the entire spinup period with a fully coupled model.
The first thing we need to do is to run a fully coupled case and save the atmospheric coupling fields on a three hourly basis. In this example, we will run on bluefire and archive the data to a local disk that we can then use in the next simulation.
Example 4-8. Example Fully Coupled Simulation to Create Data to Force Next Example Simulation
> cd scripts > ./create_newcase -case myBCN1850 -res f09_g16 -compset B1850CN -mach bluefire > cd myBCN1850 > ./configure -case # Set histaux_a2x3hr to .true. in cpl.buildnml.csh so output from the atmosphere model # will be saved 3 hourly $EDITOR BuildConf/cpl.buildnml.csh # Now build > ./myBCN1850.bluefire.build # The following sets the archival disk space (you could also use an editor) > ./xmlchange -file env_run.xml -id DOUT_S_ROOT -val '/glade/home/$USER/$CASE' # Make sure files are archived to disk, but NOT to long term storage # (you could also use an editor) > ./xmlchange -file env_run.xml -id DOUT_S -val TRUE > ./xmlchange -file env_run.xml -id DOUT_L_MS -val FALSE # Set the run length to run a total of 20 years (you could also use an editor) > ./xmlchange -file env_run.xml -id RESUBMIT -val 9 > ./xmlchange -file env_run.xml -id STOP_OPTION -val nyears > ./xmlchange -file env_run.xml -id STOP_N -val 2 # Now run as normal > ./myBCN1850.bluefire.submit |
Now we run an I compset forced with the data from the previous simulation using the CPLHIST3HrWx option to DATM_MODE. See the Section called CPLHIST3HrWx mode and it's DATM settings in Chapter 1 for more information on the DATM settings for CPLHIST3HrWx mode.

Note: In order to accomplish this we needed to edit the DATM template file. See Appendix A for more information on doing this. If your input case was at a resolution besides f09 you would have to edit the DATM template file even further to use a domain file at the input resolution.
