[MITgcm-support] CS64 grid

[Anthony Coletti]

Thanks Dimitris!

One other question (I also CC’d the MITgcm community).  Does anyone have any idea why I am growing +200m thick sea ice in the Arctic?  I am using pkg/seaice.  I originally thought it may have been my time step blowing up, but I lowered it from 2 days down to 1 day and I still get crazy amounts of sea ice.  This creates r*starr calculation errors.  I am running a CS32x6x32x15 grid - so it is quite coarse.

Thanks!

Anthony
