[MITgcm-support] kpp

Hello Chantal,

Thanks for the info. The resolution in my experiments is relatively high 
but they are 2D so I need to enhance the internal wave breaking.
(It's 200m x 5 m for a 180km x 200 m domain)

Is it possible to turn everything else in KPP off (except fast mixing at 
Ri<0) ? How do I set the parameters for that?
(I haven't looked at the kpp source code closely enough yet...)

Regards,

Dmitri
