[MITgcm-support] Layers package thermodynamic diagnostics...

Hi all,
Does anyone have the equations that are being output by the pkg/layers for the thermodynamic variables? Do these work?
For instance, the diagnostics are things like LaTz, which is Layer thickness tendency due to THETA vert. diff. This is output on Nlayers-1 levels. Similarly, the other tendencies (`LTha` , LTza) are on Nlayers-1.
That doesn’t make sense to me - I’d have thought this would be measured for each layer.
I also cannot see where the package picks up the diffusive fluxes at the layer boundaries, but perhaps I have not tried hard enough.
Any help anyone has is much appreciated!
Cheers, Jody
