Hi Chen,

set these two variables to zero, then there will be no heat or freshwater flux
SHELFICEheatTransCoeff = 0.
SHELFICEsaltTransCoeff = 0.

or if you use SHELFICEuseGammaFrict=.TRUE., then set
shiCdrag = 0.

I mean, I want to turn a sub-ice-shelf cavity into a sill cavity to assess the thermodynamic and dynamic effect induced by the ice shelf. If there is another method to achieve my idea, please tell me that. Many thanks.
