[MITgcm-support] Query regarding BLING

[kunal madkaiker]

Hi all,

I have some issues resolving the carbon chemistry using the BLING package.
My domain has river runoff included as a point source. When using the 'DIC'
package, DIC and ALK conc. get diluted causing pH to increase at those
points (which is correct).

However, when I use the same setup with the BLING package, the DIC and ALK
conc. are getting diluted but the pH decreases rapidly (5-6 pH).

Secondly, has the SOLVESAPHE algorithm been fully implemented in BLING or
not yet? I tried defining 'CARBONCHEM_SOLVESAPHE' in BLING_OPTIONS.h and
'selectpHsolver=1' in data.bling but then I got the segmentation error.
Otherwise, it works fine.

Let me know what you think. I am attaching the required files and plots for
your reference.

Thanks,
Kunal
