Martin,

two questions. 

- Ian argued that seaice_growth.F has been erroneously
dropping a sw heat flux term (see line 1716 in r1.117, and 
our Feb17th email exchange). It first appeared to break heat 
your conservation checks because Ian did not add this term to 
the SIatmQnt diagnostic that is used in those checks. However
I think Ian is right that this term is missing. What do you think?

- is there a reason why you chose oceQnet rather than TFLUX 
to test the ocean heat conservation? From my series of tests, and 
MITgcm/doc/diags_changes.txt, it seems that TFLUX is 
the one we want to use. Do you concur?

Have a good week end,
Gael
