[MITgcm-support] Adding constant submerged and surface ice.

[Dustin Carroll]

Seconding what Dimitris said…use the icefront pkg for a glacial wall, if you need a cavity under the wall for discharge or an ice shelf you can use pkg/shelfice. If you don’t need melting just use a wall and RBCS to relax temps along the wall to zero.

Cheers,
Dustin

I know how to intialise the temperatures along the wall to be zero, but I need something like the climate relaxation file to set these elements back to zero every time step, but even that seems like it would produce unreliable results. Does anyone know if any of the sea ice packages, or anything else for that matter, allows us to set temperature boundary conditions away from the surface?
