7    o pkg/thsice:
8       re-arrange calculation in THSICE_SOLVE4TEMP: move outside of i,j loops
9       iteration loop and call to S/R THSICE_GET_BULKF & THSICE_GET_EXF.
10    o verification/lab_sea:
11      - overhaul of the forward model experiments. The main motivation
12        for this revision is that lab_sea has proven quite fragile (when
13        changing the sea-ice code, and switching platforms) to a point
14        when failures were very hard to attribute to specific code problems.
15      - the suspected reason for this fragility is noise amplification by evp so,
16        to start with, we decided to replace evp with lsr in the main experiment.
17      - the input.lsr experiment thus became obsolete and was removed.
18      - it was replaced with the input.fd experiment that uses an
19        analytical "free drift" solution as the ice velocity field.
20      - Taken together, input (lsr), input.fd (free drift) and input.hb87 (evp)
21        will hopefully allow us to discriminate problems due to dynamic solvers
22        from problems due to the thermodynamic code. input.salt_plume (lsr) allows
23        us to test additional options, along with the salt plume package.
24      - Finally a pickup was generated (at the end of a one year run) to
25        make the tests more representative of an actual model run. Previously
26        the tests starting point was a 1m thickness of ice everywhere.
27    o pkg/seaice:
28      - introducing S\R seaice_freedrift.F that compute the
29        analytical solution to an approximate ice momentum
30        equation (i.e. the simple stress/coriolis balance).
31      - define SEAICE_ALLOW_FREEDRIFT to trigger the computation
32        of the free drift velocity field, and enable its use.
33        To actually use the free drift solution as the model ice
34        velocity field set SEAICEuseFREEDRIFT to .TRUE. in data.seaice.
35    o move "useOASIS" from PARAMS.h to EEPARAMS.h and read it from "eedata"

38    o pkg/seaice:
39      -fix the USE_ORIGINAL_SBI version (for variable freezing point);
40      -use "celsius2K" in SEAICE_VARIABLE_FREEZING_POINT and in new
41       version (with USE_ORIGINAL_SBI undef);
