JM, in practice the choice between LSR/EVP should be simply one of speed for 
particular grid configuration, etc., that is used.  Jinlun warns there may be 
some stability issues with the EVP solver at certain resolutions due to yield 
curve, etc., but do not have personal experience with any of these problems.

Re adjoint, I am not sure if one is preferable than the other.  My guess is that 
EVP might work better because LSR is an iterative scheme?  Patrick, any words?

So definitely both need to stay for time being.  If it's not too much trouble, 
testing both using 2 tests with similar setup would be ideal.  That way we make 
sure that neither gets broken as we change the seaice/thsice code.
