+Here are included examples of job cards for two different workload managers:
+Slurm (sbatch) and PBS (qsub).
+Each directory containds examples of job cards for seven different tasks:
+get_ics, get_lbcs, make_grid, make_ics, make_lbcs, make_orog, make_sfc_climo,
+run_fcst and run_post.
+
+Some machines have slightly different commands and examples of these differences are 
+included inside each job card sample.
+
+When using Rocoto workflow, you can find printout of your particular
+job card in log files. For that print make sure to use -v option when
+invoking rocoto commands (rocotorun, rocotorewind, rocotoboot, ...).
