Add the new runtime parameter PHILLIPS_ANSWER_DATE to enable the option to use mathematically equivalent expressions in
Phillips_initialize_velocity()
that exactly specify the arithmetic to be used, avoid excess divisions and permit full rescaling of the internal variables and the elimination of rescaling variables. This new slightly answer-changing option is enabled by settingPHILLIPS_ANSWER_DATE >= 20250101
. For now, the default forPHILLIPS_ANSWER_DATE
is set to 20241231 to avoid changing answers without explicitly setting it.This commit also introduces code to use
G%grid_unit_to_L
to detect and handle various choices for the units of theG%geolat
andG%geolon
variables.By default, all answers are bitwise identical, but there is a new runtime parameter in some MOM_parameter_doc files. This commit changes answers at roundoff when there is an explicit setting of
PHILLIPS_ANSWER_DATE >= 20250101
.
