I didn't read in detail through the new paleowat meter, but I have two small questions. can you address them?

could you document where this number comes from?

The number is just made up so that the threshold is relevant for d-rex ++ where even the biggest grain is smaller than that number.

Also Menno, A problem I just found while going through the code again today is that the dislocation densities predicted by D-Rexpp is zero. This means that the strain energy for every grain is zero, which implies that the highlighted if condition is not satisfied, freezing the rotation. Another consequence of this is that the mean strain energy is also zero, which means that the size of the grains dont change and hence we dont see any recrystallization.

why are you using the grain volume here and not the mineral volume?

True, I made a mistake as that does not make sense with respect to the volume fraction change defined by kaminski. I forgot that the grain size is changed while advecting, not here.
Differences from the earlier version:
Fixed the paleowattmeter
Current issues:
In drexpp - There is no recrystallization
The rotation of the CPO is slow
In the overall code, the rotation of the CPO is weaker than that of the previous code in the CPO-afterpaper-rebased branch. Im not able to pinpoint any difference between the two codes. It would be great if you could take a look.
