@matthewhoffman, based on your testing and an inspection of the code changes, I think this looks good. The additional prints and plots are going to be helpful in catching issues and having a quick check that everything makes sense.
The dT values that you're getting in your test look modest enough to feel like things are working as expected. The melt patterns look as good as can be hoped for with this parameterization.
The tool will also be really useful as part of the future calibration exercise that will also modify gamma.

This PR updates the script landice/mesh_tools_li/tune_ismip6_melt_deltat.py from using the Rignot et al. 2016 observed melt rates to using the Paolo et al. 2024 dataset. It also make other improvements:
Further improvements to this script are possible (cleanup/modernization/performance; more careful interpolation between Paolo grid and the MPAS grid), but this seems adequate for getting up and running for ISMIP7.
