Hi Martin,
Thanks very much for your helpful suggestions.  Probably I need to use stronger vertical viscosity to check if the simulation would be stable in this case or not. And to satisfy other stability conditions, I may need to use implicit schemes for vertical viscosity. Actually, the viscosity of molten silicates (magma ocean) is comparable to that of seawater, but I can use larger viscosity for solid silicates. Also, I will try to use bottom drag or no slip bottom, rather than both of them.

Best,
Yanhong

I agree with Christoph, that the viscosity appears a little low. But you may need viscosities that are large and maybe require implicit schemes that are only available for the vertical (in MITgcm). The Coriolis CFL number is probably also much different from Earth, so is gravity.
