[MITgcm-support] forcing on the surface

[Martin Losch]

Hi Nicolas,

C o Include pressure loading code
#define ATMOSPHERIC_LOADING
in CPP_OPTIONS.h (is on by default)

and then specify the pressure field (in SI units) the same way you  
specify, say heat flux (this of course depends on how you do the  
latter. if you use the "generic" external_fields_load methods you set  
pLoadFile in data, PARM05, if you use pkg/exf then you apressurefile  
and more parameters somewhere in data.exf).
