! A note on unit descriptions in comments: MOM6 uses units that can be rescaled for dimensional
! consistency testing. These are noted in comments with units like Z, H, L, and T, along with
! their mks counterparts with notation like "a velocity [Z T-1 ~> m s-1]".  If the units
! vary with the Boussinesq approximation, the Boussinesq variant is given first.
