Hi, I'm new using CROCO

run / config issues
1

I’m modeling tides, and I’d like to compare the simulations with some tide gauge in the area, but I’m not sure where is the initial date is set.
In the croco.in file appears a run_start_date, but in crocotools_param.m appears others initial dates as well (Y orig, Ymin, Mmin, Dmin, Hmin,Min_min).

On the other hand, the attributes for time in croco_his.nc and croco_ini.nc says ‘time since inicialization’, also in the global attributes appears ‘skpp=2005’, but Im not sure what that means.
Is there anyone who can help me?
Thank you

There are two ways of handling dates at the moment and it may be a bit confusing. By default, the dates in crocotools_param are used. If USE_CALENDAR is defined, then the dates in croco.in are used.

Thanks so much!!!
Making some tests, I think is only necessary to modify the Yorig in crocotoolsparam, not the rest
