[Mitgcm-support] RE: Metric terms

Hi Sai,

Yes - they are on RHS. See for example, 

 
http://mitgcm.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/MITgcm/pkg/mom_fluxform/mom_u_metri
c_sphere.F

The sign convention is such that positive Gu increases u, positive Gv
increases v.

Hi Chris,
    do metric terms get transferred over to the RHS of the moment
equation and hence flip sign? 
It seems so from the docs on mitgcm.org, judging by how they appear in
Gu Gv...
