CICE question about BL99 thermodynamics

[whuazhao@yeah_net]

I am running CICE 5.0 and CICE6.0. Unfortunately, I meet  a problem.When I set ktherm = 1 to use BL99 thermdynamics,the following error message appeared：（init_vertical_profile）Starting zSin

whuazhao,If anything goes wrong in the simulation, it almost always crashes with a thermodynamics error similar to yours.  So it can be difficult to figure out where the real problem is.  I usually recommend looking at the variables coming in that force the sea ice component, such as air temperature, radiation and the like.  In this case, since the salinity is getting too small, you might also check your ocean salinity.
