[MITgcm-support] EXF/SEAICE Surface Heat Fluxes

[Dimitris Menemenlis]

Do you want to prescribe surface heat fluxes at the top of sea ice or at the bottom of sea ice, when sea ice is present?

I'm running with SEAICE_EXTERNAL_FLUXES defined, and as I understand it, the model will default to EXF when there are open areas of ocean but will calculate the proper surface heat fluxes using SEAICE where the grid points have sea ice.  For my particular problem, I want to prescribe overall surface heat flux consistently throughout the run, regardless of whether sea ice is present or not.
