Just noticed something puzzling about the so-called "non-hydrostatic"
terms
in mom_fluxform:
Manual Ch2.13.2: eq2.92 second term:
where is 2\Omega w\cos\phi for the u-equation?
manual ch2.13.2: eq2.94
where is G_w^{Cor}?
mom_u/v_metric_nh are always called (even for hydrostatic code)
furthermore, for p-coordinate, these terms have a different sign,
because \omega\sim-wg\rho (eq2.107-2.108)
eq2.109: where is this term: (u^2+v^2)/a
this is in disagreement with both the manual and Marshall etal (1997)
