Adds and modifies a number of sea ice diagnostics, namely:
-sivol is the equivalent thickness of sea ice (i.e. the grid-cell mean thickness). The prior sivol diagnostic was incorrect. It was equal to sithick, which is the floe thickness (i.e. the thickness of ice averaged over the ice-covered portion of the grid cell). This change removes the old sivol diagnostic, and renames the sivol_CMOR diagnostic to sivol. See Notz et al. (2016) for the SIMIP definitions of these diagnostics.
-The prior simass_n diagnostic is a confusing name, since it is actually the sea ice thickness in each category, not the mass in each category. This diagnostic has been modified such that simass_n is now the ice mass in each category. This now has the property that sum_n simass_n = simass.
-A new diagnostic siitdthick has been added, which is the ice thickness in each category, following the SIMIP variable definition.
Adds two new columns to the seaice.stats file, which are the maximum thickness of ice in the northern and southern hemispheres.
