[MITgcm-support] Very weak surface current

[Georges Djoumna]

Dear MITgcm users,
I am forcing a lake with wind, short and long wave radiation,  air  
temperature. I using KPP and Smagorinkky scheme with viscC2Smag =2.2.

The surface current is about 5 times  weaker than the current at 10m  
depth.

Does anyone experienced this before? What can be the cause?

Thanks.
