[MITgcm-devel] (not so) funny things happen in seaice_lsr and pickups

[Dimitris Menemenlis]

Martin, if your fixes to metric terms will affect the verification
output files in any case, why not go with option 1, i.e., make
SEAICE_clipVelocities=.false. the default and change the verification
output files accordingly?

I have no idea what the lower bound for viscosity should be.
