Martin what about forward sensitivity?  Did it improve when you switched to:

> 0 &        .AND. atemp(i,j,bi,bj).LE.273.16 _d 0 )  THEN

Remember that this:

can be due to bad forcing fields not to bad model.  In which case we need to fix 
the forcing fields not the model physics.

I'm with JM re bugs and beer though.
