Completed 4 mpas-seaice testsuites which contrast the new grazing implementation and the base code, seaice/develop: 1) testsuite.standard_bgc.xml, 2) testsuite.standard_physics.xml, 3) testsuite.aerosol_shortwave.xml, and 4) testsuite.prescribed_ice.xml. As expected, only the regression test for the standard_bgc configuration failed. All other tests pass. The results of each testsuite are copied below.

The first series of tests use the standard_bgc namelist on the QU240km grid. As expected, the regression test failed but restartability and parallelism passed.
