Hello CCM2 users,

I'm very new in the modeling. I just started running
the CCM2 on SUN SPARCstation 20 but facing a strange problem.
All the history files it creates, it erases them as soon as
the file is complete. I'm so new that I could not find clue
why it is doing so. Dr. Robert Turner was running the same
model before I took the responsibility, and so far I came
to know he did not have the same problem. Only the change
I have made is in the namelist file. That's why I suspect my
namelist file may be responsible for this problem. I'll attach
a copy of the namelist file below, so that any of you may look
carefully whether there is any mistake in my choosing the
paramenters for the namelist.

I need to run (standard run) the model for 5 model years,
history files must have results averaged for each month.
I specially need to look at the radiation (both SW & LW, and
the net radiation). I have 1Gbyte disk space at a time, but
I can transfer the completed files to another device while
the model generating a new file and thus manage disk space.

I'll appreciate if anyone of you correct my namelist file for
the above mentioned desired result or point out my mistake in
the namelist file below:

$CCMEXP
CTITLE = 'CCM2.1 R15 on SUN',
NCDATA = 'SEP1',
BNDTI = 'tibds',
BNDTVS = 'tvbds',
BNDTVO = 'ozn',
NSVSN='rstrt',
IRT = 0,
NSREST=0,
NSWRPS='passwd',
NDENS = 1,
NNBDAT = 000901,
NNBSEC = 0,
NNDBAS = 0,
NNSBAS = 0,
MFILT = 1,
DTIME = 1200.,
NESTEP = 131490,
NHTFRQ = 13149,
NINAVG = 'A',
IRADSW = -1,
IRADLW = -1,
IRADAE = -12,
ITSST = 1,
SSTCYC = .TRUE.,
OZNCYC = .TRUE.,
DIF4=2.E16,
$END

Sincerely,
Khan Fakhruzzaman
