The following simple namcouple configures a run in which an ocean, an atmosphere and an atmospheric chemistry models are coupled. The ocean provides only the SOSSTSST field to the atmosphere, which in return provides the field CONSFTOT to the ocean. One field (COSENHFL) is exchanged directly from the atmosphere to the atmospheric chemistry, and one field (SOALBEDO) is read from a file by the ocean.
