      !!              with density criteria.

      !!      the density of the corresponding T point (just bellow) bellow a
      !!      given value defined locally as rho(10m) + rho_c
      !!               The turbocline depth is the depth at which the vertical
      !!      eddy diffusivity coefficient (resulting from the vertical physics
      !!      alone, not the isopycnal part, see trazdf.F) fall below a given
      !!      value defined locally (avt_c here taken equal to 5 cm/s2 by default)
