Would it make sense to initialize with the analytical solution to the (linear or weakly nonlinear) barotropic problem? Even if a simple Laplacian viscosity is a poor parameterization for eddy...

### General comments The gauge conditions documentation is pretty clear, but I am still a bit confused about how to properly implement the tau method in the problem formulation. It...

> the wavenumbers reported in the paper are in units of inverse meters Thanks, @wenegrat for clarifying—I thought that might be the case.

> Yeah EVPs can be more sensitive to the tau choices. But here I think there may be some other things. First, the variables in the EVP are implicitly multiplied...

This is my first time working with Codecov and writing a test... I think I added an appropriate test? How do I get Codecov to recompute?

I'm using your climlab as a wrapper for the RRTMG radiation code, and hope to eventually contribute to integrating @ddbkoll's [PyRADS](https://github.com/ddbkoll/PyRADS) module into climlab's suite of radiation codes. I'm fairly...

> Bringing PyRADS into the fold is also on my radar screen. Happy to chat about it. I opened some issues and PRs in the PyRADS repo related to [packaging](https://github.com/ddbkoll/PyRADS/issues/6)...

@glwagner (and @tomchor), I get what you're saying but consider the tilted bottom boundary layer example: https://clima.github.io/OceananigansDocumentation/stable/literated/tilted_bottom_boundary_layer/ In this problem, the buoyancy is decomposed ($b=\bar{b} + b^{\prime}$) into a background...

> The same is true for boundary conditions. One important use case for background fields is when we can set up a problem where the perturbation is periodic even though...
