Icepack test output

Hello,
I have followed the tutorial from https://readthedocs.org/projects/cice-consortium-icepack/downloads/pdf/latest/ to try and test the icepack on my laptop.
I changed the npt = 43800 in the icepack_in file to get the 5 years output as shown in Icepack 1.0.0 Sample Output.
However, the average ice thickness and area fraction is a bit different from the one on wiki. I have been trying to figure out the reason, and I also came across a post in which there was a suggestion about pseudo-advection. But I could not find the details on it in document. I am using the icepack version 1.4.
Is there something I did wrong?
I have attached the average ice thickness of the test output.
Thank you.

I'm not sure that the plots on the wiki are up to date. In particular we added a new method for sea ice boundary conditions in Icepack. This does change answers. We should be updating those plots. Glad you were able to get it up and running!
