Nicholaswogan/clima: clima v0.7.4

This release includes targeted RCE/RT robustness improvements since v0.7.3.

Highlights

• Added two ghost radiative-transfer layers when double_radiative_grid=True to improve numerical stability near the top of atmosphere.
• Added tunable IR thin-layer guard parameter ir_tau_min to Radtran, including Python/Fortran wrapper exposure.
• Minor optimization in convective adjustment path during RCE updates.
• Updated default RCE mode behavior to require mode 2 by default before proceeding.

Detailed changes

• Adiabat / RCE

  • double_radiative_grid path now uses nz_r = 2*nz + 2 (two ghost RT layers).
  • Radiative-grid copy path now fills ghost layers from top-layer properties.
  • Added/updated inline docs for doubled-grid behavior in Fortran and Python.
  • Convective adjustment code path includes a small efficiency cleanup.

• Radtran

  • New Radtran property: ir_tau_min (default retained from code) for IR two-stream thin-layer handling.
  • Plumbed through Radtran -> radiate -> two_stream_ir.
  • Exposed in wrappers:
    • Fortran wrapper getter/setter
    • Cython declarations
    • Python property rad.ir_tau_min

• Tests

  • test_adiabat initial guess update.

Notes

• Main focus of this release is upper-atmosphere numerical stability and configurability of IR thin-layer behavior.
• No major public API restructuring; additions are backward-compatible.
