This message only concerns users of the CCM Column Radiation Model (CRM):
CRM 2.1.1 is available. CRM 2.1.1 is a bugfix release.
As always, further details, download, FAQ, and installation
instructions are available on the homepage:
http://www.cgd.ucar.edu/cms/crm
Details from the hompage:
This version fixes a bug introduced in 2.1.0 in which the diagnostic
arrays containing the vertical profile of the LW fluxes (variables
flx_LW_dwn, flx_LW_up and flx_LW_net) were not always initialized
correctly.
On some machine/compiler combinations, this bug caused incorrect
answers in these arrays (especially if the CRM was compiled with PLON > 1).
Single level fields (e.g., flnt, flntc, flns, flds, flus) were not
affected by this bug.
Thanks to Mike Iacono for reporting the bug and supplying the patch.
Users of Solaris <tt>f90</tt> and Solaris <tt>f77</tt> should read the
<a href="#Problems">Known Problems</a> before deciding whether to upgrade.
There is now a WWW front end to the CRM available on the Web.
Professor Brian Fielder of the School of Meteorology at the University
of Oklahoma has created a simple point and click interface to the CRM
called <a href="http://rossby.metr.ou.edu/~bfiedler/crm.cgi">CRM Online</a>.
<a href="http://rossby.metr.ou.edu/~bfiedler/crm.cgi">CRM Online</a>
allows interactive setting of tropospheric and stratospheric
temperatures, CO2 mixing ratio, and specific humidity.
We would like to begin assembling a list of references to papers which
employed the CRM. Please send us your references!
