[MITgcm-support] dQdTFile

[David Wang]

It seems that this file can be used to specify spatially/temporally 
varying sea surface temperature relaxation coefficients, which would be 
preferable to constant relaxation coefficent (tauThetaClimRelax) 
occasionally. But some simple grep show it isn't in use anymore in the 
latest checkpoint (58m_post) that I'm working with. Did it retire for 
some reason?

Cheers,
