Dear Dr. Smolka,
A few years ago I wrote some software to read CCM history files
and extract any data from them. In the process I discovered that
there was a discrepency between the history files and the CCM
documetation (User's Guide To NCAR CCM3, p 123, etc.) as you have
mentioned. The actual history files include a number of extra
words and the pattern is this: "each record" in a history file
includes a 4 byte integer at the beginning of the record and one
at the end of the record. The value of this integer is the
length, in bytes, of the record being bounded. All records,
including each of the 3 header records for each time sample, as
well as each data record, have this property.
I hope this helps. If you want a copy of my program to read and
extract data from CCM history files let me know and I'll email
you the C code. It runs on all UNIX platforms.
Best wishes.
Gery
