Unless you know that ice is advected into the domain (in which case  
you need to specify this flux, or it's components uice and heff/ 
area), it seems undesirable to me to have an "infinite" potential ice  
source somewhere outside that domain, from which ice can be drawn/ 
sucked into the domain if the ice velocities are inward (for some  
other reasons). But maybe I am wrong ...

So my naive scheme would be:
if (i = obcs and uice outward) then uice(i+1:i+olx) = uice(i)
if (i = obcs and uice inward)   then uice(i:i+olx) = 0.
unless uice is prescribed. But again, I did not think too much about  
this.
