AMBER: ff02 + POL3 - polar interactions !!

Dear All,

 I have done MD simulations using AMBER8 with both ff99 + TIP3P and ff02 +
POL3 for my protein. Two trajectories were run for each force field.
Always I am seeing that some polar interactions (and also some H-bonds)
are slightly stronger for ff02 + POL3 - the average distance between the
atoms involved in the polar interaction (and in H-bond) is slightly
shorter for ff02 + POL3.

Has anyone found the same? Is it possible to explain?

thanks,

 Pradipta
