Ray: It ran ok for 3 4-min time steps (using fixed t and z boundaries from the maflx). I have not done any more testing, and have not looked at plots at all. The mods are in ~foster/timesgcm/flxbnd, and are named timesgcm.flxbnd.mods and timesgcm.flxbnd.mods1. Copy these two files to your times dir. I don't think you have to make any changes to the run script (timesgcm.nmc), so just copy it to timesgcm.flxbnd, set up the run, and submit with "modjob timesgcm.flxbnd". I think it will be ok. You should get a statement in the listing near the beginning like this: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ FLXBNDY (called from START): Defined tbnd,zbnd from mss file /FOSTER/flx/flx.uvtqz.day265.dat These are fixed boundary conditions from flxcplr (maccm2) tbnd min,max = 0.1754E+03 0.1758E+03 zbnd min,max = 0.2598E+07 0.2604E+07 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ (I'll log in sometime tomorrow to see how its going) Good luck and Merry Christmas! --Ben
