This pull request adds the CICE changes required for coupling meltponds in CM3. See ACCESS-NRI/dev_coupling#37 for discussion behind these changes and results from short simulations.

Changes in this PR include:

  • aborting from the access driver if tr_pond_lvl=.true.. This is done as apeffn is not calculated when tr_pond_lvl=.true. and calc_Tsfc=.False. (see here
  • Pond fractions are scaled by ice fractions and pond depths are scaled by pond grid-cell fractions prior to exporting. This is done to produce sensible averages which preserve pond areas and volumes after unscaling in the atmosphere.
