As a consequence your lwheat is between 315 and 460 W/m^2 (ocean loosing heat), which is clear much larger than expected (-20 to 170). Your swdown file is also small (<30W/m^2, should be up to 0-450 and sometimes even larger), so that there’s not enough heating by the sun. As a consequence your net heat flux (qnet) is way to large (upward positive) and cools your ocean.</div><div><br></div><div>You should check the radiation input files. I can only speculate what went wrong: I faintly remember that ECMWF provides the radiative fluxes as accumulated fluxes or somehting, and that there needs to be some stuff done in order cast them in the correct form, can remember what the details were, but plenty of places where one can go wrong. Or you uses the wrong fields from the download sites. For the model we need downward solar radiation (and not net) and downward longwave (thermal) radiation (again not net).</div><div><br></div><div>Hope that helps,</div><div>Martin</div><div><br></div><div><div><blockquote type="cite"><div>On 11.
