Dear Vincent,

RegCM3 outputs to the ATM, RAD, and CHE files every 6 hours by default and
to the SRF file every 3.  You would need to change the following variables
to the value '1' in the file 'regcm.in' before running the model in order to
get hourly output:
tapfrq,
batfrq
radisp,
chemfrq

And then to postproc these hourly data, you would need to do the following:
1) Change dtout, dtbat, dtrad, dtche, and dtsub to the value 1.00 in the
file 'postproc.param' in the directory 'PostProc'
2) re-make postproc
3) set '! Write out all RegCM data b/twn idate1 & idate2?' to the value
'.true.' in the file 'postproc.in' in your run directory, and set the other
three averaging flags ('Average...', 'Dirunali...', and 'Continually...') to
the value '.false.' in the same file.
4) Run postproc

I am outlining the steps here without testing them in an actual run, so it
is possible I am missing a step in this process.  Does anyone on the RegCNET
notice any mistakes or omissions in this process?

I hope this helps!

Sincerely,
-Travis O'Brien-
