[MITgcm-support] small rStarFac on land....

[Andreas Klocker]

Hi everyone,

I'm running a channel model with realistic topography at 1/20 degree 
resolution and have run it happily for approx. 30 years...and then I 
made the mistake to recompile the code to allow for more variables in 
diagnostics (without changing anything else I think)....and now I get:

fail at i,j=  26  34 ; rStarFacC,H,eta =  0.010000  1.286500E+02 
-1.273635E+02
WARNING: r*FacC < hFacInf at       1 pts : bi,bj,Thid,Iter=   1 1   1  
11676434
STOP in CALC_R_STAR : too SMALL rStarFac[C,W,S] !

The weird thing is that the grid point above is land, i.e. Depth = 0 and 
HFacC = 0, according to the grid.nc file of the last output.

Any help would be appreciated!
