Hi Ed,
I did what you told me. I am trying to repeat my results for a single
CPU, but my run goes unstable very fast. I was using 3DST flux limiting
advection scheme, and staggerTimeStep=.TRUE.. Now I find new parameters,
that I am not sure if are important for the stability of the model, some
of them are:
- exactConserv= .FALSE., I changed this one to TRUE, but the model is
still is unstable.
- tempAdvection, tempForcing, saltAdvection, saltForcing, are all set to
TRUE.
- forcing_In_AB is set to true by default , but as I am using #DST I
think it shouldn't matter.
Any idea?
Thanks again,
Sergio Jaramillo
