Mass budget accounting requires new calculations and modifications #23

Description

@matthewhoffman

Currently it is not possible to close the mass budget for grounded or floating ice. It is possible to get close with extensive post-processing calculations, but this accounting should happen online and be a standard output from all runs that closes BFB.

Some known issues are:

  • GL mask isn’t really GL mask
  • subglacial lakes need to be excluded from ice shelf
  • non-dynamic floating fringe should be part of grounded mask
  • GtoF migrations flux is necessary to close budget and GLflux needs to make use of appropriate GL position when the GL moves
  • calculations may need to occur online to capture changes to mask during the timestep
  • possibly we need special masks for budgets
