Hi Lianzhan,

Two quick things:
1)
> The attachements are "data" and "dada.pkg" files of my exp. 
I did not find these attached files. Are you sure you really included them ?

2)
> What type of forcing do you have in this set-up ?
An answer to this question would be useful.

Cheers,
Jean-Michel

So how could I output the pressure anomaly horizontal gradient caused by the fluctuation on sea surface?

I have tried "U/Vm_Advec" for nonlinear term, but this variable is zero expect for the surface layer. Its value is as same as "U/Vm_Cori", the value of "U/Vm_Cori" is also zero below surface. And "U/Vm_dPHdx"(pressure gradient force ? ) is all zero.
