Atmospheric boundary condition
From MohidWiki
For each water property the user needs to define if it want or not to impose atmospheric fluxes. Here's an example of atmospheric properties that need to be defined -if the user wants to compute heat fluxes with standard bulk formulas-. The atmospheric properties are defined in the Atmospheric_x.dat input file. The heat (bulk formulas), mass and momentum fluxes are defined in the InterfaceWaterAir_x.dat. The example of an input file InterfaceWaterAir_x.dat is presented below.
WaterProperties_x.dat
For each property it's possible to impose an atmospheric (or surface) boundary condition. By default no atmospheric boundary condition is imposed (SURFACE_FLUXES : 0).
<beginproperty>
SURFACE_FLUXES : 1
<endproperty>
Atmospheric_x.dat
It's important to have the output of the atmospheric properties fields so the user can confirm what is being imposed
