I think the old description was, well, more descriptive? Why the change?
I would rather either have a better id (e.g., id="histaux_wav2med_file1_history_freq_option") or a better description (or, ideally, both).

I have updated the descriptions - but there is now only one auxiliary file (see my comment in the PR description).

Should this be:
| <desc>If true, use time average for aux file output.</desc> | |
| <desc>If .true., use time average for aux file output.</desc> |
Also, what happens for .false.?

This description doesn't seem right, plus it smells of fresh paste, plus there is a better one after the values. Remove?

This description is not really useful. I would rather either have a better id (e.g., id="histaux_wav2med_file2_history_freq_option") or a better description (or, ideally, both).

This entry has no <desc> field.
Description of changes
WW3 will be sending daily files of all daily averaged variables and these will be written to a the auxiliary history file
wav.24h.avg- but with thehistaux_wav2med_file2_doavg = .false.(since the time averaging is done in the WW3 cap and not in the mediator.The key issue here is that the time averaging for these fields is done in the WW3 nuopc cap since the accumulation counter for each grid cell might be different and will depend on if the gridcell has a defined value for the different swell variables at that time. CMEPS does not currently have the capability to do that type of time averaging. So the fields for this auxiliary file are obtained from WW3 are written out as 'instantaneous' fields even though they contain time averaged values.
Renamed all of these variables in
fd_cesm.yamland inesmFldsExchange_cesm.F90to have a_avgsuffix.Contributors other than yourself, if any: @anacarras
CMEPS Issues Fixed:
Are changes expected to change answers? bfb
Any User Interface Changes: yes - see the new cmeps namelists above
Testing performed
Verified that the follow case ran for 6 days and produced reasonable output in the mediator auxiliary files
