Description
I was looking at a c12 MOM6 run today and I saw a couple warnings.
SAL_SCALAR_VALUE
The first warning is:
WARNING from PE 0: The runtime parameter SAL_SCALAR_VALUE is being set via its soon to be obsolete name of TIDE_SAL_SCALAR_VALUE. Please migrate to using SAL_SCALAR_VALUE.
The variable TIDE_SAL_SCALAR_VALUE seems to appear in the 72x36 and 540x458 files. I suppose we could just rename?
SIMPLE_TKE_TO_KD
WARNING from PE 0: set_diffusivity_init: SIMPLE_TKE_TO_KD can not be used reliably with USE_REGRIDDING.
This one seems a bit more interesting. From the MOM_parameter_doc.all:
SIMPLE_TKE_TO_KD = True ! [Boolean] default = False
! If true, uses a simple estimate of Kd/TKE that will work for arbitrary
! vertical coordinates. If false, calculates Kd/TKE and bounds based on exact
! energetics for an isopycnal layer-formulation.
Yeah...this is at @sinakhani level to look at :)
