[MITgcm-support] Surface waves relaxation without viscosity terms

[Jean-Michel Campin]

Hi Quentin,

I sometimes uses this repeatCycle and averagingFreq feature
but not with NetCDF files (although I thought I checked that
it was also working with mnc).

One thing that I found curious in your data.diagnostics file is
the frequency (50 yrs) which is much longer than the simulated 
time (4.yrs). Don't know if this has something to do with your problem.

Also, for the 2nd output file, should be:
>    fields(1:4,2) = 'THETA   ','SALT    ','PHIHYD  ','CONVADJ ',
instead of:
>    fields(1,2) = 'THETA   ','SALT    ','PHIHYD  ','CONVADJ ',

Cheers,
Jean-Michel
