Tracer advection settings

[kate]

The T and S advection schemes are read in read_phypar.F and ThreeGhostPoints is then set accordingly. It isn't until much later in inp_par.F that the biology, etc. advection schemes are read. If I have the old standard U3 for T and S and something fancier for biology, ThreeGhostPoints is not being set.

Yes, indeed. Great catch! I modified read_phypar.F and inp_par.F.

• Also, I corrected a typo in the documentation of each roms.in input script. We needed to have instead:

  ! or in nested applications
  !
  !  Hadvection == U3       \                     ! temperature, Grid 1
  !                HSIMT    \                     ! salinity,    Grid 1
  !                U3       \                     ! temperature, Grid 2
  !                HSIMT    \                     ! salinity,    Grid 2
  !                U3       \                     ! temperature, Grid 3
  !                HSIMT                          ! salinity,    Grid 3
  !
  !  Vadvection == C4       \                     ! temperature, Grid 1
  !                HSIMT    \                     ! salinity,    Grid 1
  !                C4       \                     ! temperature, Grid 2
  !                HSIMT    \                     ! salinity,    Grid 2
  !                C4       \                     ! temperature, Grid 3
  !                HSIMT                          ! salinity,    Grid 3
  

  Many thanks to Pierre St-Laurent for ​reporting this typo in GLOSSARY section.

• In addtion, I corrected ad_step2d_LF_AM3.h, ad_t3dmix4_geo.h, and ad_uv3dmix4_geo.h. The USE mod_ncparam was missing and necessary when the biharmonic mixing is activated. Many thanks to Xavier Couvelard for ​reporting this issue.
