Description

Notice that the Point Sources and Sinks (like river runoff, etc) in ROMS are implemented in two ways:

(1) As a transport flux in the horizontal advection equations. This is usually the standard way and it is controlled by input logical switch LuvSrc in ocean.in for the specified nested grid.

(2) As a vertical mass flux divergence in the omega-velocity equation. This is alternative approach is controlled by input logical switch LwSrc in ocean.in for the specified nested grid.

From now on, we are making sure that only one of the above methods are allowed for a particular nested grid, ng. Otherwise, the Point Sources/Sinks will be applied twice.

In this update, the logic to use LuvSrc and LwSrc is cleaned to use either of the above methodologies. The method (2) is also added to the tracer predictor step in pre_step3d.F in the same way as the corrector step in step3d_t.F.
