KPP Nonlocal transport in passive tracers

Description (last modified by arango)

The nonlocal transport convective term ghats is applied to all passive tracers in pre_step3d.F when LMD_NONLOCAL is activated. This convective adjustment should be only applied to active tracers: temperature and salinity.The radiative buoyancy flux is only know for active tracers.

This problem is also corrected in tl_pre_step3d.F, rp_pre_step3d.F, and ad_pre_step3d.F.

I also corrected a minor typo in mod_ncparam.F, we need to declare Cinfo with larger character string:

         character (len=256) :: Cinfo(NV,Ngrids)

Many thanks to John Warner and Kate Hedstrom for bringing this to my attention.
