Grid-Aligned Velocities in MOM6 .h. Output Files?

[jskenigson]

Hello,

In the *.h.* output files, there are variables named "uo" and "vo" which are described respectively as "Sea Water X Velocity" and "Sea Water Y Velocity." Could you please confirm if these are zonal and meridional velocities or grid-aligned?

Thank you!

These would be grid-aligned. These are the netcdf files as requested in your diag_table, only named *.h.* because that's what you asked for.
