  Description:

  Add ATM-only idealized dry baroclinic wave test and a 2020 July CAPE case study from the UFS Case Studies page. The baroclinic wave is run at C192 resolution; 2020 July CAPE currently at C48 resolution using v2 surface files. The cases can be run from inside the tests-dev directory. Currently, both cases are enabled on Orion and Hera, but will be ported to other Tier 1 platforms in the near term.

Configuration details:

2020 July CAPE:

• ATM-only
• Resolution: C48
• default CCPP suite: FV3_GFS_v16
• ICs: GFSv16 input data generated manually with UFS_UTILS (v2 sfc files)

Baroclinic wave:

• ATM-only
• Resolution: C192
• default CCPP suite: (dycore only)
• ICs: currently uses default for C192 from INPUT_L127_gfsv17; INPUT data is only used to enable model to run

The baroclinic wave case utilizes a model configuration provided by @XiaqiongZhou-NOAA at NOAA EMC, who also kindly provided information and an example of how to configure the case. The input namelist for this case can be found here.

Testing and porting of this work done in collaboration with @natalie-perlin.

@ulmononian Could you incorporate this change from #2489? Thanks!

[jkbk2004]

Rocoto is not stable on Gaea and Derecho. But baselines of develop-20241031 on those machines are ok.

@NickSzapiro-NOAA would you be able to resolve the comments if you are ok with the replies?

[NickSzapiro-NOAA]

@ulmononian I don't have permissions to resolve comments. Anyways, thanks for the revisions!
