[ecco-support] calculating transports using vvelmass, uvelmass, uvelstar

I have the following questions:

1) My understanding is that the U(V)VELMASS fields are premultipled by hfac, and thus should not be multiplied again by hfac when calculating transport, correct?

2) Are U(V)VELSTAR also multiplied by hfac? Or should they premultiplied by hfac before adding them to U(V)VELMASS when calculating the total tracer advection velocity?

Thanks,

Paola Cessi
