An experiment to compute flux climatology

[simone-silvestri]

I have also added a prescribed ocean, so we have a completely prescribed earth model, where the only computation required are the fluxes

Huh, interesting implementation! I think this is nice.

I was wondering if a simpler approach would simply be to loop over a set of dates, update the model time, call set! to ECCO state on that date, and then call update_state!(coupled_model) to get the fluxes.

This approach is nice though because it's a little cheaper. And we may want a prescribed ocean too, esp for sea ice simulations...

I took the opportunity to check how difficult it would be to have a prescribed ocean in ClimaOcean. Apparently, not too difficult!

btw, these are the output of the script, ordered as:
(1) mean -> :balance
(2) std -> :deep
(3) max -> :magma
(4) min -> :haline
