Switch data ice-shelf melt rates to Paolo et al 2023
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This data set is an Antarctic melt-rate climatology covering the
years 1992-2017.

The new datasets is an improvement because:
* it is more accurate than the previous Adusumilli et al. (2020)
* it includes rerouting of fluxes that are not under ice shelves
  in the MPAS-Ocean mesh
* the fluxes are carefully renormalized so that the total flux is
  identical to the original Paolo et al. dataset
* fixes the sign of the heat flux
