Hi,
I'm currently setting up and running a Ridge model based on a simple coupled framework. The model is created following the instruction here: VisualCaseGen: Ridge World | Community Earth System Model. And the CESM version is cesm2_3_beta17_GUI.
I have diagnosed a water mass leakage issue in the coupled simulations. There is a negative drift in sea surface height over time. Additionally, the global integral of net freshwater flux into the ocean (wfo) is also negative. It indicates a loss of water mass from the ocean system.
How can I ensure freshwater conservation in this coupled configuration? Are there specific settings in CESM, MOM6, or ESMF that need to be modified to enforce conservation of freshwater fluxes?
I look forward to any suggestions or insights from the community.
Thanks
