Hi all,

I am reading the manual of MITgcm about non-hydrostatic part. Here are 
some questions:

http://mitgcm.org/public/r2_manual/latest/online_documents/node39.html

1.  In equation 2.68, is it written by mistake at the right side? By 
Marshall et al.(1997), it should be Gu, Gv, Gw instead of u**, v**, w**.

2.  In equation 2.71, in non-hydrostatic scheme, w should be prognostic 
instead of diagnostic, should it be something like w(n+1)=w(*)+dt * ( 
\partial_z p_nh ) ?
