[MITgcm-support] switch to turn off advection

[钱钰坤]

Hi Jean-Michel,


Thanks for your tips.  That is quite convenient as I can do all experiments in a single run.

Hi Yu-Kun,

If you want to turn off the advection for a particular (passive) tracer,
for instance the third one, you can select the advection scheme zero: 
 PTRACERS_advScheme(3)=0,
and this will disable the advection, keeping just forcing and diffusion.

This feature was not part of the original pkg/ptracer and is not 
(well) documented.

Cheers,
Jean-Michel
