Summary:

Action	Brief description	Status	Branch name	Trac ticket n°	Wiki page name	Reviewer(s)	Review status	Ready for merge
INGV-1	Atmospheric Pressure for filtered free surface
INGV-2	Implementation of new bulk formula
INGV-3	Implementation of wave forcing interface
INGV-4	Update of Richardson ldzdf routine for PP new scheme

INGV.1 — Atmospheric Pressure for Filtered free surface

Motivation: Better representation of sea surface height spatial and temporal variability by consideration of surface pressure in limited area model domain in case of filtered free surface formulation
Status: Atmospheric Pressure term has been introduced in case of filtered free surface by the INGV group in the operational model of the Mediterranean Sea. For limited area model this requires an appropiate treatment of mass fluxes at the lateral open boundaries
Main tasks: recode according consortium rules; ensure compatibility between filtered free-surface / volume conservation and new mass fluxes through lateral open boundaries

INGV.4 — Update of Richardson ldzdf routine for PP new scheme

Motivation: Modify the existing Pacanoski & Philander (PP) scheme to introduce mixed layer dynamics in order to have a robust and easily adaptable vertical mixing scheme for operational purposes
Status: Preliminary tests already carried out; needs to be written accordingly consortium rules and ensure proper propagation of variables between air-sea interface routines and vertical mixing scheme
Main tasks: Modify the existing module - introduce needed variables in the namelist - perform tests
