                            I would like to make use of the Mixed-Layer
                            Depth model outputs from the global model
                            runs 1992-present (Nov. 2016) to drive some
                            simple 1D biogeochemical models for CDOM.  I
                            have binned to model outputs from the jpg
                            site into monthly 2x2 deg. grids.  One thing
                            of concern that I have is the trends in the
                            global MLDs (see attached figure), which are
                            more extreme in the SO.  Is there an issue
                            with maintaining correct ocean boundary
                            layers, esp. in the SO for this model?  Has
                            this been observed yet?<br class="">

      <font size="2">Hi John,<br>
        You're right, MLD from cube92 run has bias in late stage<br>
        because it's a free run for the later period.<br>
        As Dimitris said, you can look at other ECCO product provided at
        the website.<br>
        Please see attached fig showing MLD from ECCOv4 and ECCO llc270
        for an example,<br>
        where red line is for ECCOv4 (1992-2012) and blue line for ECCO
        llc270 (2001-2015) in upper plot<br>
        also MLD for cube92 is also shown in lower plot for reference.<br>
