[MITgcm-support] Student with a question/issue with the KPP package

[Taylor Shropshire]

Hello,


Background:

I am running an offline biogeochemical model using MITgcm for the Gulf of Mexico. Flow fields are from previously computed daily averages and are prescribed daily in the model.


Issue:

I have KPP outputting its variables weekly: KPPviscAz, KPPdiffKzT, KPPdiffKzS, KPPGHAT, KPPHBL.


When I look at the output of KPPHBL (mixed layer depth) I find that it is always 5m at every record at every grid point. Why is this happening in my simulations?


Thanks for your time,

-Taylor
