A new recipe with freshwater flux diagnostic explanations
The freshwater flux diagnostics saved by MOM5/CICE5 in ACCESS-OM2 are not intuitive. e.g.:
- Why is
meltdifferent to (wfiform+wfimelt)? - What causes the difference between
pme_netandpme_river? - They are multiplied by weird and differing factors of rho0 depending whether they are exchanged between the sea ice/ocean vs atmosphere/ocean.
@kialstewart has figured out exactly what they all are, and (I think?) has volunteered to write us a new recipe to explain all of this and make it clear which diagnostics (and rho0 factors) we should all be using.
