[MITgcm-support] Spurious internal buoyancy minima in long runs

[Mehmet Ilicak]

Hi all,

I'm very interested in this discussion but a little confused so I will 
try to summarize what I understood so far,
and please feel free to correct me.

Chris saw in his simulation that the bottom water is denser than the 
surface forcing values using 81 scheme.
On the other hand, Jean-Michel performed the same test but with 77 and 
what I understood from his figures that
he didn't see the same problem.
Is this correct?

My next question is this: if I remember in first email correctly, Chris 
wrote that he used also 7th order scheme which is also called 7.
By chance, can both Jean-Michel and Chris tell separately whether or not 
scheme 7 is producing the same error as 81.

Thanks a lot,
Mehmet
