arrays are zeroed out before being filled with data. These
zeros are included in the monthly averages where there is no ice.
For some fileds, this is not a problem, for example, ice thickness
and ice area.  For other fields, this will result in values that
are not representative of the field when ice is present.
Some of the fields affected are:

<P>

<UL>
<LI>Flat, Fsens - latent and sensible heat fluxes
</LI>
<LI>evap - evaporative water flux
</LI>
<LI>Fhnet - ice/ocn net heat flux
</LI>
<LI>Fswabs - snow/
