 **Reference settings for acceptable global water cycle at increased resolution**
 
+For an acceptable Global Water Cycle using the increased iphysiq resolution (iphysiq = 5), one may use the following flags and parameters in callphys.def :
+
+
+||= FLAG/PARAMETER =||= COMMENTS =||
+|| latentheat_surfwater = .true.  || Latent heat of ground ice sublimation (default is .true.) || 
+|| cst_cap_albedo = .false. || Unchanged polar cap albedo even with frost deposits (default is .false.) || 
+|| temp_dependant_m = .true.   || Temperature-dependant water contact parameter || 
+|| albedo_h2o_cap = 0.33 || Albedo of watercaptag=.true. ||
+|| frost_albedo_threshold = 0.005 || kg/m2 ||
+|| albedo_h2o_frost = 0.36 || Albedo of frost (if h2o_ice_s > frost_albedo_threshold)  ||
+|| frost_metam_threshold = 0.05 || kg/m2 ||
+|| refill_watercap = .true. || (default true) if h2o_ice_s > frost_metam_threshold, h2o_ice_s = frost_metam_threshold and watercap = (watercap + h2o_ice_s - frost_metam_threshold)  ||
+
+10 year simulation using this set of parameters gives the following water cycle :
