Gentlemen,

Since we were talking about external forcing... i am forcing (trying  
to) an oceanic
domain with ECMWF ERA 40 winds, using wind speed at 10 meters...

Everything *seems* to go pretty smoothly....  this files are read  
correctly:

(PID.TID 0001.0001) //  
=======================================================
(PID.TID 0001.0001) // Begin MONITOR EXF statistics
(PID.TID 0001.0001) //  
=======================================================
.......
(PID.TID 0001.0001) %MON exf_uwind_max                =    
8.0050000000000E-01
(PID.TID 0001.0001) %MON exf_uwind_min                =   
-6.9110000000000E-01
(PID.TID 0001.0001) %MON exf_uwind_mean               =   
-4.5498591236786E-02
(PID.TID 0001.0001) %MON exf_uwind_sd                 =    
2.7145994322517E-01
(PID.TID 0001.0001) %MON exf_uwind_del2               =    
2.2145358844077E-01
(PID.TID 0001.0001) %MON exf_vwind_max                =   
-2.3679000000000E+00
(PID.TID 0001.0001) %MON exf_vwind_min                =

(PID.TID 0001.0001) %MON exf_vwind_mean               =   
-2.6318417086058E+00
(PID.TID 0001.0001) %MON exf_vwind_sd                 =    
9.6862200473191E-02
(PID.TID 0001.0001) %MON exf_vwind_del2               =    
9.3616243251826E-02


But, but, but, absolutely no momentum is transmitted to the water...?  
I am sure i
must have done something silly somewhere but can't find what the  
problem is...

Thank you.
