Hi, 
I am trying to solve inertial modes in full sphere using ball basis, where my NCC are dependent both on radius and latitude, I am getting this error (it was a testing script for a single m value), I am trying to solve Continuity, Navier-Stokes and Energy equation with one boundary condition (vanishing Lagrangian pressure perturbation at surface) and using integ(p_perturbation)=0, is this developmental threshold or I am missing something, I would be grateful for any suggestions or help.
