Feb 7, 2016 at 11:18 comment added Sebastian Goette I can think of a rather trivial example. Assume that $n=2$. Then the underlying manifold $M$ is a surface, and if it is orientable, then $S=S^+\oplus S^-$. Assume that $h$ anticommutes with the Clifford volume element, then $D+h\colon\Gamma(S^\pm)\to\Gamma(S^\mp)$. Sometimes, the index theorem forces $\ker(D+h)$ to be nontrivial either on $S^+$ or on $S^-$. If that bundle has nontrivial first Chern class, then every harmonic section must have $N_h\ne 0$. In fact $|c_1(S^\pm)[M]|$ is a lower bound on the number of zeros, which is the $0$-dimensional Hausdorff measure.
