Hi Gael, I have following questions regarding
lab_sea/input.salt_plume/data.seaice

1) Do we need to keep following lines, instead of using default values:

#- to reproduce old results with former #defined SEAICE_SOLVE4TEMP_LEGACY code
    useMaykutSatVapPoly = .TRUE.,
    postSolvTempIter    =  0,
  SEAICE_dryIceAlb   = 0.8756,
  SEAICE_wetIceAlb   = 0.7856,
  SEAICE_drySnowAlb  = 0.9656,
  SEAICE_wetSnowAlb  = 0.8256,
  SEAICE_strength    = 2.6780e+04,
  SEAICE_waterDrag   = 5.3508,

2) How does "SEAICE_salinityTracer = .TRUE.," work?
Will it recognize HSALT boundary conditions?

Thanks

Dimitris Menemenlis
