Recently, I am using the QCCORECTION method, and I find the function in set_vbc.F as follows:
stflx(i,j,itemp)=stflx(i,j,itemp)+ dqdt(i,j)*(t(i,j,N(ng),nrhs,itemp)-sst(i,j))
I have made the dqdsst and SST in the forcing file.
The upper function is using the dqdt and sst to influence the surface heat flux(temperature). My question is how the stflx(itemp) affect the temperature? Is there any formulation?
Thanks for any reply.

Re: QCORRECTION Function
We have talked about this here in the past. You just need to search the scientific literature on the subject. For example, you can read Bernard et al. (1995) paper. Everything is explained really well there. It also provides some bibliography.
