OK there is a little footnote about that in README.kpp
>> C. Right now jwtype is defined separately at several locations

Again the issue is that the Jerlov water type is really part of
external forcing package not of KPP per se.
Question for you: what is your preference regarding background internal wave
variables (difmiw/difsiw/diftiw)? Should I just get rid of them and use
viscAz, diffKzT, and diffKhS from the main model instead. This is what Detlef
does in the Classic, but I decided to have different variable because
physically they do not mean exacly the same thing. Right now when KPP is
turned on, viscAz, diffKzT, and diffKhS are ignored.
