Summary
Abstract: The Climatological Data Land Model (dlnd) functions as the land component in a
CCSM configuration. The dlnd land component interacts with the coupler just

data from an input data file and sends it to the coupler, ignoring any forcing
data received from the coupler. Typically the input data file contains mean
