add permafrost emissions tracking to permafrost branch #1

Open dawnlwoodard opened 4 years ago

We want to be able to track how much permafrost carbon is ending up in the atmosphere to allow for easier comparison to previous results and to help us better evaluate whether the model is behaving as expected. We could use the difference between atmospheric CO2 values in the permafrost and no-permafrost runs, but this is affected by nonlinearities and will be less exact. It would be clearer to have separate variables for permafrost methane and carbon dioxide emissions to the atmosphere that are accessible to the R interface.

@dawnlwoodard sorry for slowness here - have had a couple technical stumbling blocks. More in a bit.
