-If this proves difficult for a modelling group, the **__minimum__** implementation is to: +Make sure that the ocean model configuration keeps the following straits open:
-      * fill in the Hudson Bay and the Barents sea, which were covered by the main northern hemisphere ice-sheets. +
-      * close the Bering Strait (by changing the land-sea mask locally or imposing zero flux on water and sea-ice across the Bering Strait). +
