[MITgcm-devel] partial cell under ice-shelf

Martin,

For now, it would be with Linear Free-Surf only, to uncomment the line 68 
in set_params.F:
c     uniformFreeSurfLev = usingZCoords .AND. .NOT.useShelfIce
and (after changing the phi0surf file), to see if this works and
if results make sense. But there is no rush, when you find time.

Cheers,
Jean-Michel
