This module, part of the MPAS interface, integrates MPAS dynamical core with CAM-SIMA by implementing the necessary APIs and managing their interaction.
It reads and uses the information from MPAS mesh to initialize various model grids (e.g., dynamics, physics) for CAM-SIMA in terms of dynamics decomposition.

This subroutine defines and registers four variants of dynamics grids in terms of dynamics decomposition.
Their names are listed in dyn_grid_name and their corresponding ids can be determined by calling dyn_grid_id.
* "mpas_cell": Grid that is centered at MPAS "cell" points.
* "cam_cell": Grid that is also centered at MPAS "cell" points but uses standard CAM-SIMA coordinate and dimension names.
* "mpas_edge": Grid that is centered at MPAS "edge" points.
* "mpas_vertex": Grid that is centered at MPAS "vertex" points.

Initialize physics grid in terms of dynamics decomposition.
Provide grid and mapping information between global and local indexes to physics by calling phys_grid_init.

Initialize reference pressure for use by physics. (KCW, 2024-03-25)
Initialize various model grids (e.g., dynamics, physics) in terms of dynamics decomposition. Additionally, MPAS framework initialization and reading time-invariant (e.g., grid/mesh) variables are also being completed in this subroutine. (KCW, 2024-03-29)
