! <OVERVIEW>
!   Module containing processes relating to the soil.
! </OVERVIEW>

! <DESCRIPTION>
!   Soil data type is defined and describes the characteristics of the soil.
!   The soil module and the state of soil is initialized. The soil data is
!   updated on the fast and slow time-scale. Contains updates to the "fast"
!   boundary data that the atmosphere sees and the "slow" part of boundary
!   data for the atmosphere. Sends tile-averaged data to the diagnostics
!   manager.

!     land area, fractional area, and mask. Reconciles the fractional area with

!     there is no land. Initializes accumulated values, soil diagnostics and
!     rivers submodule. Assigns initial values to dynamic land properties
!     (albedo). Send static fields to diagnostic manager for output and copies

! <SUBROUTINE NAME="update_soil_fast">

!   <OVERVIEW>
!     Fast time-scale soil updater.
!   </OVERVIEW>

!   <DESCRIPTION>
!     Calculate surface temperature with implicit correction via upward part
!     of tridiagonal elimination for implicit correction. The surface
!     temperature is corrected for snow melt before proceeding to complete
!     downward part of tridiagonal elimination. If the temperature is above
!     freezing and snow or glacial ice is present, compute potential melt.
!
!     In non-glaciated regions, if there is not enough snow, melt only what's
!     there and increase surface temperature above freezing. In glaciated
!     regions, if there is not enough snow, melt only what's there and then
!     melt the glacier. Otherwise go ahead and use all of the potential snow
!     melt, and leave the surface temperature at freezing.
!
!     Accumulate snow melt water into bucket in non-glacier regions. Using
!     this snow melt-modified surface temperature, correct all fluxes and
!     compute temperature increment and new temperature for output. Complete
!     the tridiagonal solver.
!     
!     Bucket hydrology involves treating unglaciated cells first. Tentative
!     changes are based on time-step evaporation and precipitation. If snow
!     cover went negative during this step, take the necessary mass from the
!     soil (water) and re-zero snow. Then put excess soil water into soil
!     drainage. Then do the glaciated cells. soil water is not present, and
!     glacier mass is not tracked. For all land cells, put excess snow into
!     calving. Accumulate drainage for transfer to groundwater on the slow
!     time step. Similarly, accumulate calving. Compute the new albedos and 
!     update rivers.
