     32  An optional read of surface scale factors at velocity points ( e1e2u and e1e2v) is needed in coordinate file. Indeed, in case of reduction of a scale factor (e1u or e2v) in a strait, the surface at u- and v-points must remain unchanged.[[BR]]       This allows to suppress the dom_vvl_orca_fix routine from dlmvvl.F90 module.[[BR]]    ''    Note that this change modifies the model results''    , as it contains a better handling of reduced strait width (i.e. reduced face between 2 adjacent T-points, but unchanged U and V points volume).[[BR]]       The implementation performed here is a first step to the full simplification of domhgr.F90.

[[BR]]In addition:[[BR]]- '''add''' in NEMOGCM/TOOLS directory a program that read a coordinates.nc file apply a reduction of scale factors in some straits, and create the associated extended coordinates file (coordinates_e1e2u_v.nc)[[BR]]- '''create''' the extended coordinates files form ORCA 2°, 1°, and 0.5°. ===>>> Done for ORCA 2° and 1°,  '''1/2° and 1/4° missing...[[BR]]'''- '''explore''' the possibility of defining ahm coef. at u- and v-points.  This will improve the velocity dependent case.
