[MITgcm-support] Input of warm water in depth

Dear all,
I am using the MITgcm with specified heat and water fluxes and relaxation for the region of the Gulf of Elat.
I would like to check how an input of warmer water entering in different depths from the boundary can effect the surrounding water.
I have tried using the obcs pkg, but specifying the temperature in the boundary seems to have a higher effect then should be, and it is not correlated with the discharge (or velocities) entering though the boundary (even when specifying velocities of zero, I still see a great effect due to the temperature of the boundary).
As far as I can tell, since I need to check the effect of the water entering in differing depths (and not only on the surface), I can not use the surface forcing via evaporation minus precipitation (EmPmRFile) or the external forcing package (runoffFile).
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Hadar Berman.
