[MITgcm-support] diagnostics package

[jeff polton]

That and is very useful, thank you.I have been trawling through the 
code trying to find where these terms are defined with little success. 
It seems that some, at least, are defined in a different package, the 
generic_advdiff package.
Do you know if there Is there some way to find the diagnostics, and 
their definitions, that are usable with the diagnostics package?

Thank you,

Jeff
