[Go-essp-tech] DRS clarification

Hi all,
If a coupled model is unchanged except to run with prescribed SST's, its
name won't change. A truly coupled model can't do AMIP runs; only when
you replace its interactive ocean with prescribed SSTs do you get an
AMIP run. Thus, you will never have two different models to separate
and there is no difficulty.
Hope this isn't too confusing.
best regards,
Karl
