Hi Diego,
All ECCO products so far employ Fekete climatology monthly river runoff.
A recent ECCO experiment tried "jra55-do" daily river runoff.
The mode config is identical to that of
ftp://ecco.jpl.nasa.gov/Version5/Alpha/
except for the river runoff.
please let us know if you have interest (then we can stage the output).
cheers
