[MITgcm-support] apply SALT_PLUME_VOLUME to passive tracers

[An Nguyen]

Hi Yilang,

I implemented SALT_PLUME_VOLUME but I'd recommend that you make it #undef in SALT_PLUME_OPTIONS.h as it requires more testings to see how effective this parameterization is with resolution.. My testings so far have been inconclusive, whereas the original parameterization (i.e., with #undef SALT_PLUME_VOLUME, which only redistributes the salt and not both salt and temperature) is more effective in my Arctic configurations.

Best,
An
