Merge branch 'atmosphere/fix_gwdo_descriptions' into hotfix-v7.2 (PR #955)
This merge corrects the units and description attributes for the GWDO fields var2d, con, oa1, oa2, oa3, oa4, ol1, ol2, ol3, and ol4 in both the init_atmosphere and atmosphere core Registry.xml files. * atmosphere/fix_gwdo_descriptions: Correct units and descriptions for GWDO fields var2d, con, oa[1-4], ol[1-4]
