This PR changes the default value for the following namelists: config_sfc_albedo (new value = false), config_microp_re (new value = true) and config_ysu_pblmix (new value = true).
With config_sfc_albedo set to false, the model will use table values to define albedo based on landuse values. This should be a better representation for models that have resolution better than the climatological albedo which is at about 5.5 km resolution.
With config_microp_re set to true, this will allow model to compute effective radii from microphysics variables and use them in radiation. This should better represent interactions between microphysics and radiation.
With config_ysu_pblmix set to true, it will account for top-down radiation-driven mixing at the PBL top.
