11bb4bac97 Jean*0001 test - experiment : ideal_2D_oce
                0002 
d6a28d3589 Jean*0003 purpose: Shows that the residual mean circulation is becoming small
                0004  at the Equilibrium (Bolus cancel the Euleurian circ.) and is function
11bb4bac97 Jean*0005  of the diapycnal mixing.
                0006 
d6a28d3589 Jean*0007 Set up:
11bb4bac97 Jean*0008  Idealized 2D global ocean with flat bathymetry and no continent,
                0009  symetric relative to the Eq.
d6a28d3589 Jean*0010  Forcing: zonal wind stress and surface temp. relaxation toward a
11bb4bac97 Jean*0011  "realistic" SST (function of Latitude).
                0012 
                0013 To reduce diapycnal mixing, "exotic" parameters are used (and tested)
                0014 in this test-experiment:
                0015 a) vertical discretization: interface at the middle (use delRc)
                0016 b) GM advect form
                0017 c) use Visbeck
                0018 d) GM advect(Euler+Bolus) and Flux Limit Adv scheme.
                0019 e) 3 different time-steps (MOM,FS,Tracer)
                0020 f) oceanic exp using stagger time stepping
                0021 g) oceanic exp using cg2dTargetResWunit
