Dear  Graziano Giuliani.
Initial conditions are required for meteorological, surface, gas, and aerosol variables in a model. Surface variables include initial soil moisture and soil temperature. My problem is that I cannot find surface temperature anywhere in the RegCM4 forcing data. After some investigation I found the soil temperature in the surface folder of CLM4.5 inside of the WRF sub-folder. However, CLM4.5 runs without this WRF folder. What initial soil temperature is used in RegCM4 simulations. How to activate the WRF surface folder in CLM4.5 if it is possible.

Many thanks.
