<br>
it’s very difficult to say because your setup involves many parameters that are untypical for Earth (where we have more experience).<br>
<br>
I would check your CFL numbers for advection ( u * dt / dx ), viscosity Ah dt/dx**2 (here I would use AhGrid < 1 to make sure that this part is stable), also vertical viscosity. 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.<br>
<br>
Then you horizontal density gradients are probably huge leading to large flow velocities, right? Again large viscosities will be required to balance that.<br>
<br>
(don’t use bottom drag and no_slip_bottom together, it’s double counting the effect of the bottom)<br>
