[MITgcm-devel] vertical mixing

[Martin Losch]

Hi there,

I am going to implement a few vertical mixing schemes for a small 
project on vertical mixing. In case you are interested I would like to 
include them into the repository (once I am done, this may take a 
while). The schemes include:
Pacanowski&Philander(1981) PP81
Mellor&Yamada MY80
Romea&Paluskiewicz (plume parameterisation) RP
To save me work in the future, I would like start my coding in such a 
way that you all are happy with it later on.
PP81 and MY80 behave like KPP and probably should be called from 
do_oceanic_phys and calc_diffusivities. RP replaces the call to 
convective adjustment and is a little more tricky. Each of the three 
schemes are not that much new code, so it may or may not be useful to 
add another package for each. Does anyone have a good suggestion for 
this? Or should I just go ahead and put them into separate packages?
