	25
[61]	26	<p style="line-height: 100%;">Starting from version 2.1
	27	PALM includes
[5]	28	so-called software packages which can be used optionally. These
	29	software packages are part of the model, but they are not compiled with
	30	the default model
	31	installation (actually, the routines of the corresponding packages are
	32	compiled within the installation, but these subroutines are empty,
	33	i.e. they do not contain any executable statements). Thus the
	34	compilation time as well as the memory demand of the model is limited
	35	to the real needs. </p>
[108]	36
[61]	37	<p style="line-height: 100%;">To use software packages in
	38	a model run,
	39	they must be requested with <b>mrun</b> option <tt><font style="font-size: 10pt;" size="2">-p</font>.</tt>
[5]	40	Then the subroutines belonging to the respective package are
	41	additionally compiled for the run (and the respective restart
	42	runs; the filenames of these subroutines are also displayed on the
[61]	43	terminal after <b>mrun</b> has been called). If one wants
	44	to use e.g.
[5]	45	the two packages with the names
[61]	46	<tt>package1</tt> and <tt>package2</tt>, then
	47	the <b>mrun</b> call
[5]	48	has to be: </p>
[108]	49
	50	<ul>
	51
	52	<p style="line-height: 100%;"><tt><font style="font-size: 10pt;" size="2">mrun ... -p
[61]	53	“package1 package2” </font>.</tt></p>
[108]	54
	55	</ul>
	56	<p style="line-height: 100%;">Starting from version 3.2, the particles-package is part of the default model, so it does not have to be switched on using <span style="font-weight: bold;">mrun</span>-option <span style="font-family: Courier New,Courier,monospace;">-p</span>. However, the respective parameters have still to be set by using the NAMELIST group <span style="font-family: Courier New,Courier,monospace;">particles_par</span>.</p>
	57	<p style="line-height: 100%;">Further package
[61]	58	names can be added to
[5]	59	the list, separated by blanks. If the respective packages permit user
	60	steering, the appropriate parameters must be given at the end of
	61	the file <a href="chapter_3.4.html#PARIN">PARIN</a>.
[61]	62	They must be given <b>before</b> possible user-defined
	63	parameters!
[5]	64	Each package requires its own NAMELIST group. The respective NAMELIST
	65	group name is given in the table below. For the example above one
	66	would have to add the following lines to PARIN (example):   </p>
[108]	67
	68	<ul>

	70	<p style="line-height: 100%;"><tt><font style="font-size: 10pt;" size="2">&namelist_packagename1
[61]	71	var1 = 1,0, var2 =
	72	“abcd” /</font></tt><font style="font-size: 10pt;" size="2"> </font> </p>
[108]	73
	74	<p style="line-height: 100%;"><tt><font style="font-size: 10pt;" size="2">&namelist_packagename2
[61]	75	var3 = .TRUE.,
