Description

The microphysics schemes, land surface models, and convection schemes use integers for scheme options. For example, imp_physics =8 is for Thompson; lsm=1 is for Noah LSM, etc.

For PBL and surface layer schemes, they use logical expressions for scheme options. For example, satmedmf=.true. for TKE-based EDMF PBL scheme; do_mynnsfclay=.true. for MYNN surface layer scheme.

To keep consistency and avoid confusion. PBL schemes and surface layer schemes need to be assigned with integers, similar like MP schemes and LSM.

Solution

Assign integers to the different PBL schemes and surface layer schemes in GFS_typedefs.F90 and GFS_typedefs.meta ; Make corresponding consistency checks in the scheme files.

Note this will need namelist changes in RT, workflows (global-workflow, SRW, MRW), and models that use CCPP in the future.
