There is an inconsistency between * how anisotropic viscosity is implemented in `MOM_hor_visc` and * what is described in the [documentation](https://mom6.readthedocs.io/en/dev-gfdl/api/generated/modules/mom_hor_visc.html#horizontal-viscosity-in-mom). The two would be consistent if `CS%KH_aniso` is interpreted...
In the `MOM_hor_visc` module, the computation of `FrictWork` and `MEKE%mom_src` is inaccurate if the grid is curvilinear. The computation is only exact in Cartesian coordinates. This is what is being...
The computation of `intz_dpa` in `MOM_EOS_Wright.f90` in the block below was not reproducible across layouts in one of my tests. https://github.com/NOAA-GFDL/MOM6/blob/45b336670988773c050e3d59e3bd0ebe7b948ecb/src/equation_of_state/MOM_EOS_Wright.F90#L512-L534 This was detected in a `benchmark`-like configuration on 2...
An examination of the MOM6 code reveals a number of instances in the MOM6 code where 3-dimensional arrays that are used for diagnostics are being allocated in the control structures...
We are looking into the layer-wise momentum budget in MOM6 in z* coordinate. All terms in the momentum budget are available as diagnostics in MOM6 except the dia-surface velocity acceleration...
When generating z-coordinates using the `coord_zlike` module we make a sweep from the bottom upward to ensure that layers do not exist below topography and to collapse layers against the...
During the development of the 0.25° ocean used in CM4, explicit land model heat fluxes from rivers and calving were not used. Instead, the heat fluxes on the ocean side...
@StephenGriffies, @gmacgilchrist and I have been discussing support for diagnostic grids which are non-monotonic in the model's native space. The continuous isopycnal coordinate is one such case if density is...
I've noticed that **TOTAL HEAT and SALT** are not conserved when `USE_MEKE = True` and `SINGLE_STEPPING_CALL = False`, see screenshot below. This suggests that MEKE is probably not designed to...
We have found that GMwork can take both positive and negative signs. We believe it should be negative definite. The spots where it is positive tend to occur in the...
