A coding error in the s-Coordinate Primitive Equation Model SPEM has led to misleading statements about the behaviour of the Mellor-Yamada level 2 parameterization of vertical mixing.It has been claimed that the scheme removes static instability only very slowly and preserves statically unstable str...
