Cice dimension names #16

Closed anton-seaice closed 2 months ago

anton-seaice commented 2 months ago

It may make sense to change

https://github.com/COSIMA/esmgrids/blob/1b6837d5fb512adf7f188331fd4dc4b0690bf431/esmgrids/cice_grid.py#L72

To use dimension names ni and nj, to make the grid file easier to merge with cice output, which uses these names for axes.

Similarly, for CICE6 angleT actually needs to be anglet (nocaps).

I guess we need a flag, something like variant=cice6 to keep backwards compatibilty with the AUSCOM-CICE5 version, which uses angleT
