91+ .. note :: **Initialization of Custom Land Points:**
92+ When users define their own continental geometries, the model initializes land points
93+ by reading an initial conditions file (`finidat ` specified in the CLM namelist). The model
94+ interpolates the nearest neighbor information to populate land points that lack existing data.
95+
96+ .. note :: **Runoff Behavior with Idealized Land:**
97+ In scenarios with idealized land configurations, the new land points do not have an
98+ updated routing map to direct water downstream. As a result, runoff from these land points
99+ is routed to the nearest ocean point. To verify that water is not lost in the process, users
100+ can consult the budget tables available in the log files.
101+ These tables provide detailed information on water budgets and confirm the conservation of water within the model.

You can’t perform that action at this time.
