MESOSCALE:
-- Code in storm scenario corresponds to 'OMEGA' reference case [Julien Faure]
-- Easier settings for dust lifting without the need to recompile [see below]
-- A few modifications to plot and dust-devil detection PYTHON routines

29/09/11 == AS

--> To easily explore sensitivity to lifting thresholds: in dustlift.F, ustar_seuil=sqrt(stress/rho)

and alpha_lift[dust_mass] can be prescribed through an external stress.def parameter file.
--- alpha_lift[dust_number] is computed from alpha_lift[dust_mass] as in initracer.F
--- ustar_seuil is more user-friendly than stress because direct comparison with ustar from model

--> For the moment this is MESOSCALE only, but potentially useful to everyone

  ^-----------------> Changed r_aspect_thermals from 2. to 1.5 for the GCM version to better match buoyancy profiles.
