[MITgcm-support] Problem solved: Problems about the diagnostic output of MITgcm

[曾耀萱]

Hi Martin,

I have now got the output of the freshwater flux q now. Thanks so much for your reply!

Best Wishes,
Yaoxuan

Vm_Advec includes the total tendency (i.e. also Coriolis). The metric terms, however, stem from the representation of the advection on a non-cartesian grid, right? I agree that the description of this diagnostic is misleading. You could always substract the Coriolis term (Vm_Cori).
