Description:

This PR and its related PRs add a namelist option in GFS TKE EDMF PBL scheme to apply an approximate way to represent local mixing/diffusion process in T-equation using liquid/ice water potential temperature fluxes. This could potentially improve the mixing-length-theory-based parameterization of local diffusion processes in cloudy areas of tropical cyclones (TC). The UFS hurricane application (HAFS) group has conducted retrospective tests during the upgrade of operational HAFS version 2.1, showing this option has positive impacts on TC intensity and rapid intensification forecasts.
Note: A namelist option is added to control turning on/off (default is off) this application.
