This minor release addresses two minor issues in MPAS-Atmosphere.

  1. The default setting for config_o3climatology was previously 'false',
    which caused the model to use a single seasonal ozone profile everywhere
    in the model domain when the RRTMG radiation schemes was used. The default
    is now 'true', which causes the model to use the same monthly ozone
    climatology for RRTMG as is used by the CAM radiation schemes.

  2. Model simulations using a non-integer timestep would result in 'xtime'
    variables in model output files that were incorrect, which caused problems
    when trying to restart the model at the correct time. The xtime variable
    is now correct when the valid time of output files has no fractional
    seconds.
