[MITgcm-support] EVP stability

[Matthew Mazloff]

Hi,

Thanks for the advice.  I think I will make a small 1/6 degree  
resolution test box and try running.  Until then I want to just run  
without dynamics.  I am now using C-grid.  For ice-covered areas, how  
is the wind-stress transferred to the ocean if sea-ice dynamics are  
off.  Will there be no wind-stress...or will it go right through?  Do  
I have any options?

Thanks,
Matt
