[MITgcm-support] Problem with EXF package

[Abbas Dorostkar]

Hi all,
To see If I can get nonlinear internal waves with my model,  I
considered horizontal isotherms throughout a lake and applied a wind
stress for some hours along the main axis and then turned off the wind
suddenly. When I use EXF package to prescribe time dependent wind
forcing (wind speed as an input), It seems model doesn't feel the wind
stress. I checked the monitor statistics for that and the values for
wind stress are zero.  However, when I define wind stress in the file
"data", in namelist PARM03, everything works fine.
I would prefer to use EXF package as I have wind speed but I am not sure
what the problem is. Any ideas?
Thank you
Abbas
