   !! Introduction :                                                      |

   !! Every ice-covered grid cell is characterized by a series of state   |
   !! variables. To account for unresolved spatial variability in ice     |
   !! thickness, the ice cover in divided in ice thickness categories.    |
   !!                                                                     |
   !! Sea ice state variables depend on the ice thickness category        |
   !!                                                                     |
   !! Those variables are divided into two groups                         |
   !! * Extensive (or global) variables.                                  |
   !!   These are the variables that are transported by all means         |
   !! * Intensive (or equivalent) variables.                              |
   !!   These are the variables that are either physically more           |
   !!   meaningful and/or used in ice thermodynamics                      |
   !!                                                                     |
