[MITgcm-support] Re: mdsio slice routines

[Suneet Dwivedi]

Hi Matt,
Thanks for your reply. My do not 'work' means that the
assimilation/optimization run fails when I try to allow
southern/western open boundary control. So the model runs absolutely
fine (as before) but optimization (optim.x) fails with south/west OB
control.
Cheers,
Suneet
