TYPE: bug fix

KEYWORDS: tke-epsilon-tpe, PBL SCHEME, stability functions

SOURCE: Andrea Zonato, Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute (KNMI)

DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES:
Problem:
The stability functions at the surface (phim,phieps) for calculating the boundary values of tke and its dissipation rate in the tke-epsilon-tpe PBL scheme Zonato et al., 2022 does not include the correction by z0

Solution:
Pass the correct stability functions, calculated in module_sf_sfclayrev.F
ISSUE: For use when this PR closes an issue.
Fixes #123

LIST OF MODIFIED FILES: list of changed files (use git diff --name-status master to get formatted list)

TESTS CONDUCTED:

  1. Do mods fix problem? How can that be demonstrated, and was that test conducted?
  2. Are the Jenkins tests all passing?

RELEASE NOTE:
The similarity stability functions phim and phieps, necessary for calculating the surface values of tke and dissipation rate in the tke-epsilon-tpe PBL scheme Zonato et al., 2022 have been updated considering the correction term accounting for the roughness length z0.
No relevant differences are found in temperature, wind speed, and humidity. Regarding turbulence variables, the stable case has just negligible differences, while the unstable case shows higher values of TKE and dissipation rate and lower values of temperature variance.
