Thermodynamics integration test

Fixes #499

Task List


Change Description

Add an integration test which runs the full model in a single-column mode and tests the outputs against known good values.

The model setup should roughly reproduce the results of papers such as Maykut and Untersteiner (1971), Semtner (1976), and Winton (2000).


Test Description

The test in test/ThermoIntegration_test.py creates an initialisation file and config file, runs the model, and compares the output against some known good values.


Documentation Impact

Documentation of this and other idealised tests is tracked in issue #520

Tests fail because I changed the value of Ice::mu. This needs some fixing.
