◆ update_flux_through_top_surface()
Computes the heat flux from the bedrock thermal layer upward into the ice/bedrock interface: \[G_0 = -k_b \frac{\partial T_b}{\partial z}\big|_{z=0}.\] Uses the second-order finite difference expression \[\frac{\partial T_b}{\partial z}\big|_{z=0} \approx \frac{3 T_b(0) - 4 T_b(-\Delta z) + T_b(-2\Delta z)}{2 \Delta z}\] where \(\Delta z\) is the equal spacing in the bedrock. The above expression only makes sense when Definition at line 210 of file BTU_Full.cc.
