<div>Hi, all MITgcm users,</div><div><br></div><div>I am trying to use bulk formulae to calculate the SST instead of providing four heat flux for the MITgcm. I chose to put swflux and lwflux into the model and use the bulk formulae in the exf package to compute the latent heat flux and sensible heat flux. </div><div><br></div><div>Now, I have encountered a serious problem, that is, if I do not use SST climatological nudging,the simulated SST in 30~40N would decrease very quickly in winter (i.e. decrease about 10 degree in only one month, e.g. January). I guess the reason is the water needs to lose lots of heat to atmosphere since the sst is much larger than atmosphere in winter, but this is unreasonable. The simulated sst in winter showed great discrepancy with observed data... I am not sure if the long-time spinup could help to improve the simulation...</div><div><br></div><div>Could anyone give me some suggestions? Thanks very much.</div><div><br></div><div>Best regards,</div><div><br></div><div>Yi Liu</div><div id="ntes-pcmail-signature" style="font-family:'新宋体'">
