[MITgcm-support] Negative Specific Humidity

[Yuan Lian]

Hi, Andrea,

I am using a basic atmospheric model. No external packages such as fizhi 
and AIM are applied. I only add thermal forcing(absorption of solar 
radiation) and water vapor (condensation only, no evaporation)  to 
"external_forcing.F". I am not sure how hard it would be if I use fizhi 
package to do this.  Also I need to change  the Earth' parameters to 
thoes of gas giant planets, I am not sure if can be easily done in fizhi 
package. Thanks for you help!
