[MITgcm-devel] multiple ptracers with divided adjoint

Hi Matt,

ok.
It ought to be possible to remedy this
by having a loop over all tracers in
ptracers_ad_check_levN_dir.h   ( N> 1 )
something like

      DO iTracer = 1, PTRACERS_num
CADJ STORE ptracer(:,:,:,:,:,iTracer)
CADJ &     = tapelev2, key = ilev_2
etc...
      ENDDO

That should generate a separate file for each tracer.

-p.
