+LMDZOR can use both the 2-layer and 11-layer hydrology. ORCHIDEE-DOFOCO can only use the 11-layer hydrology so there is no choice but to use the 11-layers or CWRR scheme. First open the COMP/orchidee.card
+and change the suffix to ensure that the correct run.def will be used.
+{{{
+DefSuffix=CWRR

+When installing LMDZOR we substituted the trunk version of ORCHIDEE by the DOFOCO-branch. The coupled set-up has some left overs of previous ORCHIDEE versions. Earlier the run.def of ORCHIDEE contained all settings because that was very difficult to read and maintain all parameters now get a default value and only when the default value needs to be changed, the parameter should be mentioned in the run.def. This basically resulted in an empty run.def when running a default set-up. LMDZOR still comes with unreadable full run.def which in the LMDZOR world is called PARAM/orchidee.def_CWRR. We propose to delete settings from the old run.def and only keep the following settings:
 
-change PARAM/orchidee.def_CWRR to include the info from the offline orchidee runs (i.e., the run.def used offline)
-change PARAM/orchidee.def_CWRR: set river routing to "RIVER_ROUTING = n" 
-set'DefSuffix=CWRR' in COMP/orchidee.card
