 === Run with land surface model and coupled to the RRTMG radiation model ===
 
-When using the land surface model (LSM) in combination with the RRTMG radiation scheme, at least two additional NetCDF files are required in the INPUT directory with suffixes _rlw (longwave radiation) and _rsw (shortwave radiation). They have to be placed in the INPUT directory on the host where the simulation will run. The layout of the data files must be equal to the standard files provided by RRTMG (see [source:palm/trunk/lib/rrtmg/data here]). A sounding file for trace gas data can be added optionally, having the suffic _rsnd.

For this example run, simply copy the two files from [source:palm/trunk/lib/rrtmg/data here] to your INPUT directory and rename them as described above.

+Before you proceed, make sure you have installed the RRTMG library as external library and you have re-compiled PALM afterwards. An installation manual can be found [wiki:doc/tec/radiation#Installation here].
 
 In addition, the PALM configuration file .mrun.config has to be extended as follows
