[MITgcm-support] about the wind stress in ecco v4er2

Hi all,

Recently I tried to rerun the ECCO v4r2, I have downloaded all the forcing data and I found all the wind stress data have reverse sign such as: westerly zonal wind should be positive in the value but in ecco it's negative, so I'd like to know why is that? is it due to the LLC90 grid? if it is , I'd like to know how to plot this vector field correctly.

Thanks for your kindness and help.
