Description

This PR is a bug fix so that the wave model only updates surface roughness over open ocean, and not over lakes and sea ice. It also avoids using unrealistic surface roughness values from the wave model, such as values greater than 0.1 m.

Issue(s) addressed

Testing

Simulations were conducted on Hercules at C1152 resolution.
Regressions tests were performed on Hercules and the log files are committed in the ufs-weather-model branch.
Additionally, a new baseline was created and the results were reproduced when compared to its new baseline.
