[MITgcm-support] Shortwave and watertype

[Dimitris Menemenlis]

Right now it's hard-coded to jwtype=2 as per code below.
Unless you simply aim to change it ot another constant,
you probably would want to rewrite the swfrac routine to
include a jwtype argument in order to facilitate spatio/temporal
variations in jwtype.  D.

#ifdef ALLOW_CAL
ceh3 this should have an IF ( useCALENDAR ) THEN
CML(
C     myIter = 0 makes cal_getMonthsRec always return  count0=12
C     so that jerl(count0) = 2.
C     The following lines are meant to be an example of how to
C     include time dependent water types. However, it would probably
C     make more sense to first think about a regionally varying
C     water type before implementing a time dependence.
CML      CALL  cal_GetMonthsRec(
CML     O     fac, first, changed, count0, count1,
CML     I     myTime, myIter, myThid )
CML      jwtype=jerl(count0)
CML)
       jwtype=2
#else /* ALLOW_CAL undef */
