Hi,
</p>
<p style="font-family:SimSun;">
When I tried to change the parameter "viscAh" from 12E5(its default value) to 12E6 when usind ideal_2D_oce case, for some reason the simulation proceeds extremely slowly, like it only simulates 5000 years after integrated for 48 hours, but normally it only needs a few hours to complete 10 thousand years simulation if we don't change "viscAh" to 12E6, do you know why or does the value of "viscAh" have a limit?
</p>
