component of the Coriolis parameter and fh the horizontal component of the Coriolis parameter? When calculating the energy budget, one needs to take the dot product of the momentum equations with the velocity vector, effectively canceling out the Coriolis
terms in the energy equation. However, using only the horizontal momentum equations diagnostics (i.e., Um_Advec and Vm_Advec), we don’t get the -fh*u term coming from the vertical momentum equation that permits to cancel out the +fh*w term from the zonal
momentum equation. Is that really what is happening when we perform U . Um_Advec + V . Vm_Advec (i.e., we get a u*fh*w term that is not balanced)? If yes, is there a way to get a Wm_Advec term from the diagnostics package or do I have to calculate it offline
when performing my energy budget?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

I don’t get the Um_dPHdx and Vm_dPHdy diagnostics but I get the Um_dPhiX and Vm_dPhiY diagnostics instead, which seem to already incorporate the surface pressure gradient. Am I right on that? Also, do these new diagnostics incorporate the NH pressure field?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
