[MITgcm-devel] diagCode

[Patrick Heimbach]

Hi Torge,

good to hear from you, sounds like you're making good progress.
Not sure if useful addition to Jean-Michel's comment,
but the ptracers package also has an extra dimension
to account for tracer index
(e.g., pkg/ptracers/ptracers_diagnostics_state.F )
Perhaps useful.

Cheers
-Patrick
