<div>Hi Todd,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have begun modifying the ESMF external libraries to support the 360 day calendar as well as the calendar without leap years. I expect to have these changes wrapped up soon, and I should be ready to check them into the trunk tomorrow.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I will be making one fix that is worth noting as a user of this code: config_calendar_type will now be a character string, as the registry and namelist parsers have no knowledge of the internal integer parameters MPAS_GREGORIAN, MPAS_360DAY, etc.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>After this change, the registry entry should look like:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
<div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Courier New'">namelist character nhyd_model config_calendar_type MPAS_360DAY</font></div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>and the corresponding namelist option would be: </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Courier New'">config_calendar_type = 'MPAS_360DAY'</font></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Please let me know if you have any questions.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Cheers,</div>
<div>Conrad</div>

<div>Hi, Todd.<br>
<br>
It does seem fitting that we should be looking into calendar issues on Feb. 29.<br>
<br>
I've made a cursory pass through the code, and it looks like this may be the<br>
result of an incomplete implementation of calendars in the old ESMF library that<br>
we're using. For example, the following are hard-wired in ESMF_Calendar.F90<br>
<br>
INTEGER, PARAMETER :: mday(MONTHS_PER_YEAR) &<br>
= (/31,28,31,30,31,30,31,31,30,31,30,31/)<br>
INTEGER, PARAMETER :: mdayleap(MONTHS_PER_YEAR) &<br>
= (/31,29,31,30,31,30,31,31,30,31,30,31/)<br>
INTEGER, DIMENSION(365) :: daym<br>
INTEGER, DIMENSION(366) :: daymleap<br>
<br>
and these are used to determine the month and day of the month for a particular<br>
time instant.<br>
<br>
We can scope out the necessary changes to get the 360-day calendar working and<br>
give you an update.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Michael<br>
