If I remember correctly
ADJustress and ADJvstress show tile edges -- I think this is just an  
issue with gridding (a vs c grid) and exchanges -- because I don't  
believe adxx_taux and adxx_tauy show this pattern
let me know if you want me to confirm this as Xuebin, a postdoc here  
at SIO, has looked into this

Just throwing this out there -- sorry if its off topic, I didn;t  
follow the whole thread,
Matt
