----
=== Description ===
Mercator-1 : Improvment of OBC's

----
=== Testing ===
Testing could consider (where appropriate) other configurations in addition to NVTK].

|| NVTK Tested || !'''YES!''' ||
|| Other model configurations || !'''NO!''' ||
|| Processor configurations tested || [ sette layouts ] ||
|| If adding new functionality please confirm that the [[BR]]New code doesn't change results when it is switched off [[BR]]and !''works!'' when switched on || !'''NO!''' ||

(Answering UNSURE is likely to generate further questions from reviewers.)

'Please add further summary details here'

 * Processor configurations tested
 * etc----

=== Bit Comparability ===
|| Does this change preserve answers in your tested standard configurations (to the last bit) ? || !'''NO !''' ||
|| Does this change bit compare across various processor configurations. (1xM, Nx1 and MxN are recommended) || !'''YES!''' ||
|| Is this change expected to preserve answers in all possible model configurations? || !'''NO!''' ||
|| Is this change expected to preserve all diagnostics? [[BR]]!,,!''Preserving answers in model runs does not necessarily imply preserved diagnostics. !'' || !'''NO!''' ||

If you answered !'''NO!''' to any of the above, please provide further details:

 * Which routine(s) are causing the difference?
 * Why the changes are not protected by a logical switch or new section-version
 * What is needed to achieve regression with the previous model release (e.g. a regression branch, hand-edits etc). If this is not possible, explain why not.
 * What do you expect to see occur in the test harness jobs?
 * Which diagnostics have you altered and why have they changed?Please add details here........

----
=== System Changes ===
|| Does your change alter namelists? || !'''YES!''' ||
|| Does your change require a change in compiler options? || !'''NO!''' ||

 * namelist changes:
 * About compiler options: Changes do not require any change in compiler options. Yet, we noticed that results are not reproductible unless the lowest level of optimization is used.

!''Please !''summarize!'' any changes in runtime or memory use caused by this change......!''

=== IPR issues ===
|| Has the code been wholly (100%) produced by NEMO developers staff working exclusively on NEMO? || !'''YES!''' ||
