Patrick,

I am probably not any longer up to date with the code, but as far as I 
know, there are (at least there were) two JMD95 options, 'JMD95Z' for 
the Jacket&McDougall(1995,JAOT)-EOS with pressure=g*rho0*depth, and 
'JMD95P' for the same EOS with exact pressure (lagged by one time 
step). Both work, and if you have a look again at ini_eos.F: JMD95Z may 
not be used with pressure coordinates, because in that case pressure is 
just 'rC', the vertical coordinate. All if-statements, except for the 
one that excludes joint use of JMD95Z and p-coordinate, say 
(equationOfState(1:5) .eq. 'JMD95'), which allows for both JMD95Z and 
P, and that's correct.
