Update to GEOSradiation_GridComp v1.7.0 #756

Closed mathomp4 closed 4 months ago

mathomp4 commented 4 months ago

This PR updates GEOSgcm to use GEOSradiation_GridComp v1.7.0. There are two main changes in this from v1.6.0.

The first is a small change needed for ongoing OceanBioGeoChem work (#28). To use this completely needs updates in GEOSgcm_GridComp and GOCART. Contact @mfmehari for more information.

The second is an update for on-going validation of RRTMGP (#33). This adds a new CMake option, ENABLE_SOLAR_RADVAL which is default OFF. Enabling it will enable many new exports for validation purposes.

This update is non-zero-diff for RRTMGP but that is not run by default currently. For RRTMG they are either zero-diff or 'truncation zero-diff', but these changes should only affect diagnostic outputs. That said, the Solar Internal Restart will have some changes (see below) but the overall state of the model is zero-diff with RRTMG:
