[MITgcm-support] Diffusion in KPP

I actually have some  Problems with the KPP  package.
I tryed to change  the KPPdiffT and KPPdiffS of vertical diffusivities for 
a double diffusive parametrisation.
But the output I get for these diffusivities from the KPP diagnostics output
are set to a constant value after the first output.
How I can change these diffusivities for temperature and salinity, if it is possible?
There is another thing in kpp_calc_diffs.F.
I am not sure, but it seems that in row 69 (where diffusivity for kArg is calculated) the 
diffusivitiy  of salt is set to the diffusivity of temperature.

Thanks, Thomas
