Hi Martin,

Yes, 1800 is a little large (I had taken this from a 10 km run), but 
reducing to
900 makes no difference.  If I shift the zonal jets by 1/4 wavelength, 
so that the
tangential velocity is zero at the boundary, it runs much better (attached,
although there is some noise in the meridional velocity, probably
the same problem exists).  What is the wrapping condition, u(j=1) is the
same as u(j=?) near the northern boundary?

Mike
