[MITgcm-support] how to use windstress to calculate wind speed

Hi all,

I have wind stress data, now I need to use bulk formulation to calculate
heat flux in the model , which requires total wind speed. But I don't have
total wind speed data, I know MITgcm can calculate wind stress and total
wind speed from zonal and meridioanl wind speed data,  I was wondering if
MITgcm can calculate total wind speed through zonal and meridioanl  wind
stress data.
Thank you so much.
Bests,
Qihua
