Tangent Approximations
1 - Actives variables degraded to passive
Some active variables are treated as passive (mainly due to non-differentiability characteristics).
- avmu, avmv: the vertical eddy viscosity. The turbulent closure scheme zdftke induces some non-differentiabilities for there variables. They are used in dynzdf_imp_tam.F90 routine.
- uslp, vslp: the slope of neutral surface (slope of isopycnal surfaces referenced locally) are treated as passive in order to not recomputed them at each step. They are used in traldf_iso_tam.F90 routine.
- wslpi/j: vertical mixing coefficinet due to lateral mixing. They are used in trazdf_imp_tam.F90 routine.
2 - Simplifications
- removal of upstream part of second order centered scheme for traadv_cen2_tam.F90. It introduces
some non-differentiabilities. Some complementary test must be held to fully implement the second order scheme
- removal of zonal mean lateral diffusive heat and salt transport (pht_ldf and pst_ldf )
