[MITgcm-devel] exf wind-stress masking

[Jean-Michel Campin]

Hi, 

I am going to check-in some unfinished changes in exf:
I realized that the masking of the wind-stress is wrong (when not on 
C-grid, which happen when interpolated or read from A-grid file).
I fixed this problem and will check-in this (involves also EXF_PARAMS.h
 & exf_init_fixed.F) and update output of global_with_exf exp.

I also started to add some params in EXF_PARAMS.h + exf_init_fixed.F
for 2-components vector interpolation (I did this before the stress
mask fix), will be part of the changes but they are not yet used.

Regarding masking, I don't see a clear reason why it's only
applied when not using SEAICE. If exf works fine without
masking (when using SEAICE), then why do we care about applying
masks ?

Also, noticed that exf_init_fixed.F does not compile with default 
pkg/icefront settings (might have been better to put all this
icefront - exf code in pkg/icefront and still call some utility 
exf & cal S/R).

Cheers,
Jean-Michel
