Hi Dan

Can you please explain the double counting issue. I don’t understand what you are referring to. I don’t understand where it arises from for either optimization or reconstruction. 

Thanks
Matt

I'm hoping that by avoiding the bulk formulae I can more cleanly separate the effects of wind stress anomalies from those of heat flux anomalies.
