Hi Terry,

As far as I know, there is no problem in changing the land/ocean masks. The
only thing you have to do is to edit the ORO field, which specifies the surface
type. Maybe you also want to edit the PHIS (surface geopotencial) field. If you
increase the land areas in the CCM3 you will also need to edit the lsm initial
datasets (to specify a vegetation type)

Does anybody in the ccm-group know if anything else needs to be changed?

Good luck, Terry!
