Uninitialized variable in sbc_oce.F90

Description

Context

Variable nn_components is initialized with a namelist read in sbc_init, however, nn_components is used before it is initialized. Before we make the call to sbc_init, we call istate_init, which calls dta_tsd, which calls fld_read, which makes use of nn_components to set an offset.

Analysis

The offset in fld_read should be zero for dta_tsd (loading T and S from 3D input files), so nn_components = 0 should be appropriate here.

Fix

Initialize nn_components to zero where it is declared in sbc_oce.F90. Patch attached.

  • Resolution set to fixed
  • Status changed from new to closed

Effectively, nn_components has no value in that case and nn_fsbc also.

But:

  • in the case of jp_iam_opa=0 ( OPA+sbcmod together, i.e no SAS ) or jp_iam_opa=1 ( SAS mode, OPA component ), we will have it_offset = 0 when fldread os called by dtatsd
  • in the case of jp_iam_opa=2 ( SAS mode, SBC component ), dtatsd is not called

So it should not be a problem.
