Known Issues

CSIM5.0 Known Bugs List

1. There is a bug in ice_mechred.F that was introduced with the vector code (reported June 15, 2004). Because of it, the ice strength is not being computed for points where there is net divergence. Since the vector code passed the climate equivalence test with the pre-vector code, our feeling is that the effect on the climate would not be significant, although this should be tested. [patch 1]

2. In versions of csim4_8_15 and earlier, there was a bug in the cona array in ice_history.F that caused some of the fields written to the history file to be multiplied by the wrong conversion factor.
