real, dimension(:,:), pointer tke_bbl => NULL()
 A term related to the bottom boundary layer source of turbulent kinetic energy, currently in [Z3 T-3 ~> m3 s-3], but may at some time be changed to [kg Z3 m-3 T-3 ~> W m-2].
 
real, dimension(:,:), pointer taux_shelf => NULL()
 The zonal stresses on the ocean under shelves [Pa].
 
real, dimension(:,:), pointer tauy_shelf => NULL()
 The meridional stresses on the ocean under shelves [Pa].
 
real, dimension(:,:), pointer tbl_thick_shelf_u => NULL()
 Thickness of the viscous top boundary layer under ice shelves at u-points [Z ~> m].
 
real, dimension(:,:), pointer tbl_thick_shelf_v => NULL()
 Thickness of the viscous top boundary layer under ice shelves at v-points [Z ~> m].
 
real, dimension(:,:), pointer kv_tbl_shelf_u => NULL()

real, dimension(:,:,:), pointer kv_shear_bu => NULL()
 The shear-driven turbulent vertical viscosity at the interfaces between layers in corner columns [Z2 T-1 ~> m2 s-1].
 
real, dimension(:,:,:), pointer kv_slow => NULL()
 The turbulent vertical viscosity component due to "slow" processes (e.g., tidal, background, convection etc) [Z2 T-1 ~> m2 s-1].
 
real, dimension(:,:,:), pointer tke_turb => NULL()
 The turbulent kinetic energy per unit mass at the interfaces [Z2 T-2 ~> m2 s-2]. This may be at the tracer or corner points.
 
logical add_kv_slow
 If True, add Kv_slow when calculating the 'coupling coefficient' (a_cpl) at the interfaces in find_coupling_coef.
