Deprecate ORCA grid #983

Closed anton-seaice closed 3 weeks ago

anton-seaice commented 1 month ago

I suggest we deprecate the ORCA / CPOM grid code

Its not a lot of code, but does helps to keep things tidy (especially in ice_read_write.F90 ).

I contacted Danny Feltham, who said that they are still running v5.1.2 occasionally but have mostly moved to SI3, so we can deprecate all of the CPOM grid code in v6. I suspect that we can also deprecate the hadgem forcing data. Let's not simply delete it -- use the deprecation process (remove namelist options and make the code abort if someone tries to use it, without removing all the code, then finish deleting it later). I'll add these to the deprecation table.

Thanks E!

Is this the only code which uses the tripoleT grid format / norther boundary ?

No, we also use tripoleT since this is what NEMO uses (on most ORCA grids) and we run coupled with NEMO, but do that without the orca_halogrid switch.
