Research direction

Read issue #429 and the CTSM pull request that introduced the FORTRAN code and tester. Clarify the intended CMEPS/CTSM ownership and build path with maintainers. Done would be an agreed, reproducible unit-test arrangement for CMEPS, including how CTSM builds and runs it.

Description

CESM only enhancement

In #429 I added new code and a unit-tester for it under the CTSM PR that uses it. I'm wondering if unit-testers is something that should be added to CMEPS? Initially maybe the way to go would be to have the unit-tester in CMEPS, but still use the CTSM infrastructure to build and run it?

@billsacks thoughts on this?
