Some small issues that popped up when guest scienties Mehdi Khaki went through it.

  1. the file mkscripgrid.py cannot be found in the static file generator repo:

## 1. Create SCRIP grid file with `mkscripgrid.py`
To use `mkscripgrid.py`, first open the script (for example using vim text editor) and adapt the variables that describe your grid. These include your grid name, the four corner points of your model domain as well as the resolution (lines 42-50 of the script). Then you can execute the script:
```sh
python mkscripgrid.py
```
```{attention}
The `mkscripgrid.py` script requires numpy and netCDF4 python libraries to be installed (use pip install to do that if not already installed).
```
The output will be a SCRIP grid netCDF file containing the grid dimension and the center and corners for each grid point. It will have the format `SCRIPgrid_"Your grid name"_nomask_c"yymmdd".nc`

  1. surfdata should be added to the path here:

export CSMDATA="/p/scratch/cslts/shared_data/rlmod_eCLM/inputdata/" # this works for JSC users only, for non JSC users see below
