@jkbk2004 This PR and sub-component PRs are finally ready for review. Everything is b4b identical!

[jkbk2004]

@climbfuji sounds good! we will try to schedule to commit sometime next week.

[FernandoAndrade-NOAA]

Hi @climbfuji, this PR is next for testing, please go ahead and sync / reesolve merge conflicts. Please also merge in changes from #2286, there should be no baseline changes from that PR as well.

[climbfuji]

Well, there are several merge conflicts in ccpp-physics. This will take a bit to resolve :-(

[climbfuji]

I think I got it - let me run a quick compile of all suites on my mac

[climbfuji]

@FernandoAndrade-NOAA I think this is good now. It compiled successfully on my macOS. I didn't run any tests on Hera after merging in the latest changes from develop and @jiandewang's PR.

[FernandoAndrade-NOAA]

@BrianCurtis-NOAA @zach1221 FYI getting started with RTs for this PR.
