[MITgcm-support] Calculation of eta

Hi all.

I was just wondering whether the calculation of the ETAN field (sea
surface height anomaly) includes variations in steric height (i.e.
density driven changes) or not. I did have a look in the handbook, but
couldn't see a reference to steric height in there. Apologies if I
missed an obvious answer!
