Summary

Both models resolve a visible band and a near-infrared band, whereas eCLM previously received a single broadband value, halved it, and used the same number for both. It created a bias about ~10-30%.

Changes

  • both models resolve a visible and a near-infrared band, which are now coupled. Send them as OASIS bundled (3D) fields instead, so the number of coupling variables and the namcouple stay unchanged
  • the bundle size is declared only through var_nodims(2) in oasis_def_var
  • replacing the artificial 50/50 split of shortwave radiation bands with the input from ICON

Stacked PR 3 of 4

- add global variable q_sf_grc and q_sf_patch
- add ram1,rah1 and raw1 as global variables
- introduce namelist parameter use_exchcoef_oascoupling

- add coupling in lake landunit
- fix namelist parameter use_exchcoef_oascoupling
- use effective moisture resistance for raw1 at BareGroundFluxesMod.F90
- combine parallel resistances by area-weighting their conductances
- guard the gridcell resistance inversion against spval and unset patches

Good to see the use of OASIS bundled fields (a.k.a 3D coupled fields), which is only available in OASI3-MCT v5.0!
