[MITgcm-support] initializing a grid

Hi Jean-Michel et al

I am setting up a grid that is from 20W to 20E. Since MITgcm deals in degrees E, what is recommended?

From looking at the code it isn’t clear to me what would happen if I told the MITgcm to have a grid 340 to 380…..

One option is to just shift this by 20 degrees east, and pretend the grid is from 0 to 40 instead of 340 to 360 to 20. This complicates any on the fly interpolation but I can deal with that. Is this the easiest?

Thanks!
Matt
