[MITgcm-devel] problem in seaice_lsr with cubed sphere

[Jean-Michel Campin]

Hi Martin,

Did you try something like one or more calls to S/R FILL_CS_CORNER_UV
(we currently only have the _RS version but would not be difficult
to make an _RL ; and as long as _RS = real*8, you can certainly give 
it a try just calling the _RS version).

Cheers,
Jean-Michel

SEAICE_OLx = OLx-2 (=2) I get NaN in global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice (and others that use LSR), in the second linear iteration of the solver.
