Um-createbc documentation

Dear CMS Team,

I am trying to set up a suite to create UM ancillary files with the um-createbc.exe utility ($UMDIR/vn10.7/cce/utilities/um-createbc.exe on ARCHER2). This is for example done in the nesting suites, but I have a slightly different use case for creating global ancillaries for paleo simulations.

I was wondering whether there is any documentation available on how the input namelist for the um-createbc.exe utility has to be formatted? I could not find any information in the Helpdesk.

Thank you very much for your help!

Seb

Hi Seb,

UM Documentation paper F61 covers CreateBC.
You can find it on MOSRS here: https://code.metoffice.gov.uk/doc/um/vn13.7/umdp.html
