That's correct.  In all the tests that we have done here, dozens of  
years of integration on the Arctic, Weddell, CS510, and CS510-adjoint  
domains, we have not experienced a single failure when:

i) SEAICE_no_slip=.true.

ii) SEAICE_no_slip=.false. and the etaMeanZ mask is applied.

Patrick, what is your experience with the ECCO-GODAE set up?
