Additional information

For now, please baseline only the 'grid' and 'mosaic' files on Hera. These files are need so that @DeniseWorthen can create the required ocean mask files. And the ocean mask files are needed so @GeorgeGayno-NOAA can create the 'orog' and 'sfc' files.

@GeorgeGayno-NOAA I don't think we need the C18; the low res configurations at this point are set up as on C12+9deg and C24+5deg. Both of those run in the coupled configuration. @LarissaReames-NOAA do you see any need for C18?

[LarissaReames-NOAA]

No, I think it was only suggested as an alternative to C24. If we're moving ahead with C24, then there's no need for C18 as well.

@KateFriedman-NOAA - we completed our testing on Hera. Can you please push to the other platforms. Thanks!
