Update to cellular automaton stochastic convective organization scheme #41

Closed lisa-bengtsson closed 3 years ago

lisa-bengtsson commented 3 years ago

Updates include:

1) Introduction of CA domain definition. 2) Read/Write and restart capability of CA 3) Change namelist control parameter so that CA time and space scales are adjusted for various resolutions given the same CA namelist input. 4) Significant cleaning of old ideas. 5)Improved coupling to cumulus convection to be committed in coordination with this issue: NCAR/ccpp-physics#657

Test results with GFSv16 as a baseline (atmosphere only) can be found here for winter and summer: https://www.emc.ncep.noaa.gov/gmb/jhan/vsdbw/v16upcas2/ and https://www.emc.ncep.noaa.gov/gmb/jhan/vsdbw/v16upcaw2

New baselines are needed for the fv3_ca regression tests.

Code looks good. I will wait to do the merge until the other components are ready.
