4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o tools/OAD_support and (verification/*/) code_oad:
8      - OAD_support/cb2mGetModules.csh: add PACKAGES_CONFIG.h in header file to
9        module conversion ; remove unneeded CPP_EEOPTIONS.h.
10      - code_oad/CPP_OPTIONS.h: remove PACKAGES_CONFIG.h and use a more standard
11        version (closer to model/incCPP_OPTIONS.h).
12    o model/src:
13      - remove parameter "useOldFreezing" from PARAMS.h and push it to the
14        retired list of parameters (routine FREEZE has been replace by surface
15        freezing (10.yrs ago) and by pkg/frazil (interior freezing).
16    o pkg/gmredi:
17      - add option (GM_CALC_TRANSP_FROM_VEL) to compute transport directly from
18        velocity (same scheme but affects machine truncation) for GM_AdvForm.
19      - update output of FWD experiments: front_relax.bvp,
20        global_ocean.90x40x15.dwnslp, global_ocean.cs32x15 and ideal_2D_oce.
21    
22    checkpoint64q (2013/11/17)
23    o verification:
24      - generate new output on baudelaire (gfortran, -ieee) for OpenAD experiments
25        tutorial_global_oce_biogeo and global_ocean.90x40x15.
26      - generate new output (growth & melt) for seaice_itd experiment after
27        updating the input pickup_seaice files (previously wrong).
28    o pkg/cost:
29      - define a "final cost function" for each tile, and use GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL
30        (instead of _GLOBAL_SUM_RL) to get the final cost from all procs & threads:
31        o this fixes global-sum value if multi-threads (since GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL
32          cannot be applied to var in common block).
33        o allows to get results independent of tile-per-proc setting (if using
34          slower GLOBAL_SUM_SEND_RECV option).
35      - update accordingly: seaice_cost_final.F, shelfice_cost_final.F,
36        thsice_cost_final.F and ecco_cost_final.F (this one affects lab_sea
37        forward gradients: update output).
38      - update */code_oad/externalDummies.F by adding dummy GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL
39        S/R and, for most exp., also comment out GLOBAL_SUM_R8.
40    o pkg/mom_common:
41      - move to pkg/mom_common and model/src (previously in tutorial_deep_convection
42        code) 2nd version of isotropic 3-D Smagorinsky code interface: strain and
43        viscosity are locally declared in dynmics.F and pass as argument to CALC_GW;
44        ensure that all field value that are used are set.
45    o tutorial_deep_convection (smag3d):
46      - add missing scaling in mom_calc_smag_3d.F;
47      - set smag3D_coeff in input.smag3d such that results do not change.
48    o pkg/dic:
49      - change dic_cost.F to compute cost on each tile first and then apply
50        GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL: this affects forward gradient of AD experiments
51        tutorial_dic_adjoffline & tutorial_global_oce_biogeo; update output.
52      - remove kLev argument and use GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL in tracer_meanarea.
53    o eesupp/src & pkg/mdsio:
54      - remove gather/scatter_vector.F (from eesupp) and mdsio_read/writevector.F
55        (from pkg/mdsio) since they are no longer used for tape IO.
56      - move simple C subroutine "setdir.c" from pkg/compon_communic to eesupp/src
57        (+ keep a copy in pkg/atm_ocn_coupler).
58    o verification/isomip:
59      - split domain in 8 squared tiles (instead of just 2) for FWD, AD & OAD tests.
60    o tools/build_options:
61      - optfile linux_amd64_ifort11, fast (no ieee) case:
62        to get a working restart for all experiments, add "-fp-model source"
63        to FOPTIM (also remove "-opt-streaming-stores auto" <- this is the default).
64    
65    checkpoint64p (2013/10/20)
66    o pkg/autodiff:
67      - adread_adwrite.F: when type and length do not match ALLOW_AUTODIFF_WHTAPEIO
68        criteria, return to simple (default) tape IO format.
69    o pkg/mdsio (+ eesupp/src):
70      - rewrite/simplify tape-IO S/R (new S/R MDS_READ/WRITE_TAPE replace
71        previous MDSREAD/WRITEVECTOR) with 2 array argument from each type (R4/R8);
72      - fix globalFile and singleCpuIO options using simpler global mapping.
73      - new pairs of scatter/gather vector S/R (one for each type, generated from
74        template) corresponding to simpler global mapping.
75      - adread_write.F: switch to new S/R (but leave old calls commented) and write
76        to globalFile when parameter globalFiles is set to True.
77      - switch on useSingleCpuIO in AD experiments: global_ocean.90x40x15 & isomip.
78    o pkg/autodiff:
79      - adread_adwrite.F: add a hack for RS arrays (when RS=real*4);
80        with ALLOW_AUTODIFF_WHTAPEIO defined, since corresponding (real*4) is
81        missing, just add a STOP if array type do not match.
82    o pkg/exf:
83      - to allow to use seaice-fraction from pkg/exf in other pkgs than pkg/seaice:
84         rename CPP option EXF_ALLOW_SEAICE_RELAX to EXF_SEAICE_FRACTION
85         and rename array obsSIce to exf_iceFraction.
86    o tutorial_deep_convection:
87      - add 1rst version of isotropic 3-D Smagorinsky code (from Louis-Philippe),
88        for now all in this exp. code dir.
89      - add secondary test using Smag-3D viscosity (keep very low backgroud visc for
90        testing) and flux-limter advection scheme for Temp. (no explicit diffusion).
91    o eesupp/src:
92      - added SINGLE_DISK_IO option because reading of parameter files on
93        very large number of processors did not work with existing set-up
94    
95    checkpoint64o (2013/09/25)
96    o pkg/atm_phys & atm_compon_interf:
97      - allows for coupling of gray-atmosphere (atm_phys) with ocean.
98    o tools/build_options:
99      - switch from "-fPIC" to "-mcmodel=medium" in optfiles: linux_amd64_gfortran
100        & linux_amd64_ifort11 and in linux_amd64_g77 & linux_amd64_open64 also
101        remove CPP setting (was identical to genmake2 default).
102    o pkg/gmredi & model/src: Some updating and work done on the residual model.
103      - created new file model/src/calc_eddy_stress.F to calculate the eddy stress.
104      - fixed up the calculation of the eddy stress and how it is added to the
105        external forcing via taueddy_external_forcing.F
106      - at the moment, it is very experimental and only works with the variable eddy
107        diffusivity calculated in gmredi_k3d.F
108    o pkg/seaice/seaice_check.F: add a check to catch the case of specifying
109        lw/swfluxfile instead of lw/swdownfile in data.exf together with pkg/seaice
110    o testreport (& tools/do_tst_2+2):
111      - for MPI test, set default COMMAND to 'mpirun -v -np TR_NPROC ./{executable}'
112    o tools/build_options: linux_amd64_gfortran & linux_amd64_ifort11:
113      - remove CPP='cpp -traditional -P' (this is genmake2 default)
114      - add switch (for big setups) to use 'medium' memory-model (but leave it
115        commented out for now). Note: needed with FC 19 to compile big setups.
116    o pkg/atm_compon_interf:
117      - regroup per field origin (model & pkgs) the coupling storage routines
118         (which accumalate in time each coupling field)
119      - move bi,bj loops inside atm_store_my_data.F and store also wind-stress;
120        update accordingly + simplify aim_do_physics.F
121    
122    checkpoint64n (2013/08/26)
123    o pkg/bbl:
124      - update formulation to reduce dispersion of tracer properties in bbl
125      - replaced horizontal and vertical transport parameters with velocities
126      - changes results for verification/global_with_exf.yearly
127    o verification/halfpipe_streamice:
128      - change to matrix construction; update both Fwd & AD output.
129    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens:
130      - OpenAD test: switch to vector-invariant momentum since fluxform with
131        rStar causes problems with OpenAD; update output.
132    o tools:
133      - genmake2: define a common prefix for all temp-file names ; move them
134        to local /tmp disk (but would be easy to move them back);
135      - xmakedepend: apply the same switch for temp-files.
136    o pkg/offline:
137      - changes for use with rStar (NLFS): assume that we continue to provide
138        UVELMASS/hFacW_ini & VVELMASS/hFacS_ini (hFacWi,S_ini as written in grid
139        output files) and apply r* scaling at each time-step (function of the time
140        varying Eta field); use normal pickup files (needed for restart with NLFS).
141    o adjoint with OpenAD:
142      - move OpenAD-specific files from verification/OpenAD/code_oad_all to a new
143        package openad.  This package has to be compiled for all runs with OpenAD
144        instead of specifying code_oad_all as a modification directory.
145      - link the fortran templates from tools/OAD_support to the build directory
146        for preprocessing to avoid conflicts between different setups compiled
147        simultaneously and simplify cleanup.
148    o pkg/exf:
149      - in exf_getforcing.F: comment out most of the EXCH calls (fields used by
150        main model or other pkgs are exchanged in EXF_MAPFIELDS).
151    o model/src:
152      - do_stagger_fields_exchanges.F: skip EXCH calls when using pkg/offline
153        (similar to do_fields_blocking_exchanges.F).
154    o tools/genmake2:
155      - remove TAF output src code just before calling staf (when not doing a fresh
156        built, will stop if things go wrong with staf).
157      - fix target "adobj" (left from TAF version-2 transition)
158    o pkg/diagnostics:
159      - add a parameter to track the status of pkg/diagnostics activation;
160        this replace/extend the use of logical param "settingDiags" (to check
161        when adding diag to the list) to also check any DIAGNOSTICS_[]FILL* call.
162        New S/R to print error message and stop when pkgStatus is not right.
163      - to try: add a warning when "data.diagnostics" exist but useDiagnostics=F.
164    
165    checkpoint64m (2013/08/13)
166    o model/inc:
167      - move FCORI_MACROS.h from PARAMS(_MACROS).h to GRID_MACROS.h (left from
168        8 yrs ago modif when Coriolis arrays were moved from PARAMS.h to GRID.h)
169    o pkg/kpp & aim_v23:
170      - only call DIAGNOSTICS_FILL when useDiagnostics=TRUE.
171    o pkg/seaice:
172      - restore (last time on 2011/12/24) ability to compile pkg/seaice with
173        undefined pkg/exf ALLOW_ATM_TEMP or ALLOW_RUNOFF CPP-options.
174      - only call DIAGNOSTICS_FILL when useDiagnostics=TRUE.
175    o eesupp/src:
176      - fix check for overlap-size argument (myOLn.GT.MAX_OLY_EXCH)
177        in exch1_rx[_ad].template (thanks to Francois Lefeuvre report).
178    o switch to TAF version-2:
179      - add flow directives to "freeze" naming convention for ad-routines that
180        are used in I/O routines of adjoint state and associated common blocks
181        that are used in adcommon.h (backward compatible with version-1)
182      - update all ad-optfiles (in tools/adjoint_options + few local to some
183        verification exp) to switch to latest TAF version (currently 2.5.5);
184        merge "*_mpi" adoptfiles into the corresponding non-mpi (but commented
185        out except for diva).
186      - the major change with TAF version-2 is that both the differentiated
187        routines and the forward routines (new) are returned as part of the TAF
188        output source code. Update genmake2 accordingly.
189      - new output for AD experiment tutorial_global_oce_biogeo (better AD gradient
190        with version-2 when compared to TLM or FWD gradient); other experiments
191        output show minor changes (machine truncation level); update the few AD &
192        TLM output with 12 matching digits only (some prior to version-2 switch).
193    
194    checkpoint64l (2013/08/05)
195    o model/src:
196      - in dynamics.F, skip the call to CALC_VISCOSITY if momViscosity=F
197      - main_do_loop.F: no longer includes additional (AUTODIFF) header files
198        when using TAF but only if using OpenAD.
199    o pkg/mom_common+fluxform+vecinv:
200      - always set horiz. viscosity arrays to background value before calling
201        MOM_CALC_VISC (in MOM_FLUXFORM & MOM_VECINV) and call S/R MOM_CALC_VISC
202        only when using variable horiz. viscosity (useVariableVisc=T);
203      - simplify mom_vecinv.F (only 1 block for momViscosity).
204    o pkg/mom_common: variable horiz. viscosity in NH code
205      - move horiz-viscosity 3-D arrays viscAh_W & viscA4_W (used in calc_gw.F)
206        from model/inc/NH_VARS.h to pkg/mom_common/MOM_VISC.h
207      - store in common block (in MOM_VISC.h) logical parameters: useHarmonicVisc,
208        useBiharmonicVisc & useVariableVisc.
209      - fix old bug (already in 1rst implementation of variable horizontal viscosity
210        in calc_gw.F, version 1.27, 2006/06/20):
211        horizontal bi-harmonic viscosity in gW was missing when wiscA4W=0
212        even if variable bi-harmonic viscosity (e.g., viscA4Grid) was non-zero.
213      - change background horiz viscosity in vertical momentum (gW) to always be
214        viscAhW,viscA4W (instead of switching to viscAhD, viscA4D when using
215        any type of variable viscosity, e.g., viscAh/4Grid)
216      - change default value of viscAhW,viscA4W to viscAhD,viscA4D (instead of
217        viscAh,viscA4) which default to viscAh,viscA4 :  this avoid missing
218        horiz. viscosity in W eq when just setting viscAhD/Z,viscA4D/Z (since
219        default viscAh,viscA4 is zero).
220    o model/src:
221      - extend length of drC & recip_drC from Nr to Nr+1.
222    o Divided Adjoint (DIVA) with MPI:
223      - genmake2: do not create local ./mpi_headers dir when no file to copy into.
224      - remove option ALLOW_DIVIDED_ADJOINT_MPI (replaced by ALLOW_DIVIDED_ADJOINT
225        and ALLOW_USE_MPI) from model/src code and from ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h.
226    
227    checkpoint64k (2013/07/23)
228    o tools/OAD_support:
229      - avoid the need for file "oadtempflile" in insertTemplateDir.bash
230        and remove it from genmake2.
231    o tools/build_options:
232      - remove MPI_HEADER_FILES_INC setting (no longer used) and comment out
233        MPI_HEADER_FILES list (let genmake2 find the missing headers)
234    o verification/halfpipe_streamice:
235      - change to driving stress formulation; update both Fwd & AD output.
236    o tools/genmake2 and Divided Adjoint with MPI:
237      - remove default setting of MPIINCLUDEDIR from $MPIHOME (always been broken);
238      - only create local ./mpi_headers dir if using MPI and MPIINCLUDEDIR is set;
239      - add new variable (LOCAL_MPI_HEADERS, replace MPI_HEADER_FILES_INC) in
240        Makefile, which is set by genmake2, and check which mpi-headers are needed.
241        Note: need to update adjoint_options/adjoint_diva_mpi accordingly.
242      - update target "CLEAN" (to also remove ./mpi_headers/ dir).
243    o testreport:
244      - changes for Divided Adjoint Run: when file "run_ADM_DIVA" is present,
245        perform additional runs (number of additional runs is "add_DIVA_runs" taken
246        from file run_ADM_DIVA ; should match "nchklev_3" in file "code_ad/tamc.h").
247    o verification/lab_sea (AD test):
248      - change to test Divided Adjoint Run in this set-up (both standard AD test
249        and 2 secondary AD test: noseaice + noseaicedyn); drop the evp AD test.
250    o pkg atm_ & ocn_compon_interf:
251      - remove cpl_earlyExpImpCall=F option (was mainly a hack added for the old
252        staggerTimeStep implementation) and disable (retired) corresponding
253        parameter.
254    o pkg/offline:
255      - comment out unused field-array: ICEM, ConvectCount, hflx[01], icem[01];
256      - add S/R OFFLINE_CHECK to print offline parameter summary
257        and stop if loading a file that is not used;
258      - enable to calculate GMRedi tensor, KPP mixing and convective index
259        when the corresponding file(s) is/are not specified (but pkg is used).
260      - comment out resetting of monitorFreq (to endTime) since it still useful
261        for monitoring CFL numbers and checking offline fields.
262    o OpenAD:
263      - do not define OAD_DEBUG (in tools/adjoint_options/adjoint_oad) to get
264        smaller standard output) and generate new (smaller) output (on baudelaire
265        using gfortran with -ieee) for exp. tutorial_tracer_adjsens
266    o model/src:
267      - call EXTERNAL_FORCING_SURF outside bi,bj loops (in do_oceanic_phys.F),
268        (where external_forcing_adjust was called) and change list of arguments;
269      - merge external_forcing_adjust.F into external_forcing_surf.F
270      - put surface relaxation of SST & SSS in new S/R (forcing_surf_relax.F)
271        which also contains balancing surface relaxation (ALLOW_BALANCE_RELAX,
272        previously in file "balance_relax.F", now removed); remove corresponding
273        arrays in FFIELDS.h.
274      - EXTERNAL_FORCING_SURF is now called when using pkg/offline; implement
275        a hack for getting back surfaceForcingS (loaded from file) when using
276        ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX (pkg/dic, in DIC_OPTIONS.h) in offline set-up.
277      - update output of AD test experiment global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice_dynmix
278        (was getting only 11 digits for AD-grad, due to different truncation
279         error in AD code).
280    
281    checkpoint64j (2013/07/04)
282    o pkg/offline:
283      - to enable the use of other features with pkg offline (e.g., obcs),
284        also call S/R DO_OCEANIC_PHYS in offline run - more modifs to come.
285      - comment out "allowFreezing" (now active) in 2 offline testing exp.
286    o pkg/exf ALLOW_RUNOFTEMP
287      - fix sign and make compatible with temp_EvPrRn .NE. UNSET_RL
288      - ahdded RUNOFTEMP test to verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.seaice
289      - changes verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/results/output.seaice.txt
290    o pkg/atm_phys:
291      - allows to add some damping on uVel,vVel (strength only function of k).
292    o verification, ad-tests:
293      - reduce length of the simulation for AD test: global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice,
294        global_ocean_ebm and offline_exf_seaice.thsice.
295    o verification/halfpipe_streamice:
296      - found a bug in s/r pkg/streamice/streamice_advect_thickness which caused
297        flux input boundary conditions to be ignored; a fix for this bug changed
298        verification results for forward test.
299      - add adjoint test.
300    o pkg/ptracers:
301      - allow to restart without SOM pickup (resetting SOM to zero).
302    o pkg/gmredi:
303      - New parameterisation for the calculation of K and (GM_PsiX,GM_PsiY) added.
304      - It uses mixing length theory and suppression by steering level effects to
305        calculate a diffusivity used in the Redi tensor (see Bates et al., submitted
306        to JPO, for more details).
307      - It also uses the diffusivity to calculate an eddy induced streamfunction
308        based on a PV closure (rather than a buoyancy closure as in GM).
309      - New files added to pkg/gmredi:
310        gmredi_k3d.F calculates the diffusivity for the Redi tensor and the eddy
311          induced overturning streamfunction (called from gmredi_calc_tensor)
312        gmredi_calc_eigs.F calculates the eigenvalues and eigenvectors required
313          for use in gmredi_k3d
314        gmredi_calc_urms.F calculates the the rms eddy velocity used to calculate
315          the eddy diffusivity
316    
317    checkpoint64i (2013/06/18)
318    o pkg/cheapaml:
319      - take src files from MITgcm_contrib/verification_other/offline_cheapaml/code
320        that enable the use of seaice (pkg/thsice thermo & pkg/seaice dynamics)
321        with pkg/cheapaml.
322    o utils/python: add subpackage for cubed sphere function, first example is
323        simple cs.pcol to plot 2D fields on a map
324    o pkg/streamice:
325      - This is a new package in MITgcm, which solves dynamic equations for ice
326         sheets and ice streams
327      - At the moment it is independent of atmosphere/ocean dynamics, or any
328        other physical packages in MITgcm, even ShelfIce (although it is anticipat-
329        ed that this will change)
330      - There is a new verification exercise that tests it, halfpipe_streamice,
331        evolves a 40x80 km ice stream/ice shelf (at coarse resolution) in a
332        rectangular embayment
333      - halfpipe_streamice is forward-only for now, will have TAF test soon
334      - for questions, email dgoldber@mit.edu
335    o pkg/thsice:
336      - fix filling of snow-precip diagnostic (SIsnwPrc) (left from the removing
337        of snowPrc from common bloc, on May 2nd, thsice_step_fwd.F revision 1.40);
338      - remove diagnostics 'SI_FrcFx' ( now identical to 'SI_Fract' with new
339         call sequence: ice-Thermo(thsice),ice-Dyn,ice-Advect );
340      - allow precip from pkg/cheapaml to make snow over seaice.
341    o pkg/cfc:
342      - move in separated header file (CFC_ATMOS.h) time-serie arrays of Atmos CFC
343      - remove atmos CFC 2-D arrays from common bloc (now local variables)
344      - change some hard-coded constant to run time parameter for reading and
345        and interpolating atmospheric CFC ; keep same default as previously.
346      - more flexible reading of Atmos CFC (number of records no longer hard-coded)
347      - put arguments in standard order: myTime, myIter, myThid
348      - use standard S/R GET_PERIODIC_INTERVAL for time interpolation of
349        atmospheric CFC ; fix for the case myIter < PTRACERS_iter0.
350      - fix calculation of surf tendencys for partial-cell and/or Non-Lin Free-Surf
351      - new routine to print summary of CFC params and check for consistency.
352    o pkg/seaice: add uice/vice to the parameter list of s/r seaice_advdiff,
353      similar to thsice_advdiff.
354      Note that for the B-grid case the routine parameters uc/vc are overwritten.
355    o pkg/cfc:
356      - change time interpolation for atmospheric CFC-11 (now same as for CFC-12);
357        update output (CFC-11) of experiment cfc_example and tutorial_cfc_offline.
358      - fix interpolation of atmphspheric CFC between Sorthern and Northern
359        hemisphere value.
360    o pkg/seaice:
361      - allow to use seaice dynamics without pkg/exf (e.g., using pkg/cheapaml)
362    o pkg/seaice: add Adams-Bashforth2 time discretization for ice dynamics;
363                  so far only for JFNK-solver, turn on with SEAICEuseAB2 = .TRUE.
364      - requires an additional time level that is stored in the pickup
365      - you can start with AB2 from a pickup without this time level with
366        pickupStrictlyMatch = .false.
367    
368    checkpoint64h (2013/05/26)
369    o pkg/cheapaml:
370      - replace one ()**.5 with SQRT + use temp var "cdu = tau/Du" (coare3_flux);
371        affect machine truncation (but exp cheapAML_box still pass with 13 digits).
372      - consistent treatment of uWind,vWind location: assume everywhere in
373        pkg/cheapaml that they are on C-grid (@ uVel,vVel location)
374        (Note: was already the case for Tair,Qair advection);
375        add option (INCONSISTENT_WIND_LOCATION) to recover old results.
376      - compute diabatic forcing only in the interior (excluding overlap regions)
377      - fill in array "Qsw" (for short-wave heating);
378      - add diagnostic for precip ; fill-in diagnostics for cheapAML state vars
379        before any update (consistent with MITgcm state var diagnostics);
380      - cheapaml_fields_load.F & cheapaml_init_varia.F : only fill outer edges if
381        non periodic ; + adjusted for uWind,vWind (C-grid).
382    o pkg/seaice:
383      - remove dependence of pkg/seaice versus pkg/exf (file: pkg/pkg_depend) and
384        add explicitly pkg/exf in experiments that currently use pkg/seaice.
385      - allows to compile pkg/seaice without pkg/exf.
386    o tools/OAD_support:
387      - use a local copy (ourRWCPinBd) to ensure index ourRWCP stays within bounds
388        of array "ourStepOf" in function rvNextAction (revolve.F90).
389    o pkg/aim_compon_interf renamed to pkg/atm_compon_interf
390      - change pkg name (to be used with other atmospheric physics pkg)
391        but by-pass CVS when making the new pkg so that we keep the CVS history.
392    o pkg/offline:
393      - call OFFLINE_FIELDS_LOAD from pkg/offline/offline_init_varia.F
394        (previously called from pkg/dic_surfforcing_init.F)
395    o model/src:
396      - re-order sequence of calls within packages_init_variables.F, using
397        standard order, except for:
398         DIAGNOSTICS_INIT_VARIA and OFFLINE_INIT_VARIA (called @ the top),
399         CTRL_MAP_INI and OBCS_INIT_VARIABLES (called @ the bottom)
400    o new pkg: atm_phys
401      - add entry point and source code (previously in contrib
402          verification_other/atm_gray/code_gray/) for new pkg "atm_phys"
403        (atmospheric physics pkg from P. O'Gorman and T. Schneider, JCl, 2008).
404      - re-order sequence of calls within packages_readparms.F,
405         packages_init_fixed.F and packages_write_pickup.F
406        (but skip packages_init_variables.F because of TAF issues).
407      - update contrib/*/atm_gray/ experiment.
408    o pkg/seaice (ITD code):
409      - simplify and fix the writing of pickup-files for ITD case
410    o pkg/seaice (ITD code):
411      - introduce floe size dependent lateral melt for ITD case;
412      - cleaning (avoid division by zero, change to f77 syntax, remove tabs)
413      - update seaice_itd experiment main output.
414    o pkg/thsice:
415      - remove snowPrc from common block THSICE_FLUX, in THSICE_VARS.h and
416        declared it locally (without bi,bj) in thsice_main.F & aim_do_physics.F;
417        changed accordingly pkg/atm2d.
418    
419    checkpoint64g (2013/05/01)
420    o pkg/exf ALLOW_RUNOFTEMP
421      - if defined,  river and glacier runoff temperature can be read-in from
422        runoftempfile; runoftempfile needs to have same format as runofffile
423    o pkg/thsice (& pkg/bulk_force):
424      - In case Energy-Reference-Level (ERL) is used (temp_EvPrRn=0), account
425        for energy content of Precip + RunOff & Evap (like with pkg/exf).
426      - change computation domain to always be the interior (without overlap).
427      - fix bug (wrong overlap) when using EXF and stressReduction > 0.
428    o verification/tutorial_global_oce_biogeo:
429      - add preliminary OpenAD setup (still has problems)
430    o pkg/seaice:
431      - turn some parameters for choosing the convergence criterion of
432        the inexact Newton method (JFNK) into runtime parameters for convenience
433      - clean up seaice_calc_viscosities.F: remove/retire two options for
434        SEAICetaZmethod (1,2), introduce area weighting for method 3; this changes
435        the results of lab_sea/input because a division has been replaced by
436        a multiplication with the reciprocal (sumNorm)
437      - modify offline_exf_seaice/input.dyn_jfnk/data.seaice to improve
438        convergence of solver (changes results, of course), and to test some
439        new features
440    o model/src:
441      - remove unused (since Aug 2006) S/R SET_WRITE_GLOBAL_PICKUP and its call.
442      - remove unused forcing field "dQdT" and associated parameter "dQdTFile".
443      - move forcing adjustment (balancing surface forcing) in specific S/R
444        where might also be applied exchanges (if needed) to forcing arrays.
445    o pkg/shelfice:
446      - allow to specify the Ice-Shelf mass per unit area (instead of
447        shelficeLoadAnomaly) and do the conversion from one to the other
448      - move loading from file of shelficeLoadAnomaly from SHELFICE_INIT_VARIA
449        to SHELFICE_INIT_FIXED: (a) avoid some TAF recompution issues and
450        (b) will be loaded in time (before calling INI_PRESSURE) in case it is
451        needed in phi0surf for initial pressure calculation when useDynP_inEos_Zc
452      - update isomip experiment forward output (get machine truncation error
453        from conversion shelficeLoadAnomaly -> shelficeMass -> shelficeLoadAnomaly)
454    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
455      revise data.seaice in input.thermo and input_ad and update results accordingly
456        HO = 0.2, SEAICE_areaLossFormula = 2,
457        SEAICE_growMeltByConv = .TRUE.,
458        SEAICE_doOpenWaterMelt = .TRUE.,
459      Improve consistency with input.thsice and fix the spurious 500m ice corners
460    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15:
461      - set Energy Reference Level to liq. water @ 0 degC: temp_EvPrRn=0.,
462        in icedyn (thsice+seaice-dyn) test and update output.
463    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
464      - adjust list of tested variables (with testreport) and update
465        standard test output with better slection of monitored fields.
466    o pkg/cd_code:
467      - swtich off Adams-Bashforth on the 1rst iteration. Update output of
468        experiment lab_sea.hb87
469    o tools/genmake2:
470      - change default makedepend from the system default to tools/xmakedepend:
471        When no makedepend is specified, select tools/xmakedepend it the test pass,
472        otherwise select the system default (if exist and pass the test) or
473        try to build cyrus-makedepend ; stop if none of the 3 works.
474    o pkg/exf & pkg/thsice:
475      - In case Energy-Reference-Level (ERL) is used (temp_EvPrRn=0), account
476        for energy content of Precip + RunOff & Evap. Assumes:
477       1) Rain has same temp as Air.
478       2) Snow has no heat capacity (consistent with seaice & thsice pkgs)
479       3) Run-Off comes at the temp of surface water (with same Cp)
480       4) Evap over ocean is released to the Atmos @ surf-temp (=SST); should be
481        put directly into Latent Heat flux & should use water-vapor heat capacity.
482       5) Evap over snow/seaice (pkg/thsice) assumes constant Lf+Lv (consistent
483        with snow having no Cp) => water vapor is released to Atmos @ 0^oC (=ERL).
484    o pkg/seaice: simplify the use of CPP flags in JFNK-related files
485        (compile when SEAICE_ALLOW_JFNK is defined)
486    o pkg/thsice:
487      - fix oceanic flux diagnostics & timeave (left from new sequence of calls
488        implementation): move THSICE_AVE call after the advection (called directly
489        from thsice_do_advect.F).
490    o verification/global_ocean.90x40x15 and OpenAD:
491      New experiment for OpenAD is identical to the one in input_ad except that
492        multiDimAdvection=.FALSE.,
493      There is still an issue with this.
494    o pkg/thsice:
495      - account for ice velocity (ocean relative velocity) in turbulent heat flux
496        at the base of the ice; update output of global_ocean.cs32x15 (icedyn)
497        and offline_exf_seaice (main test).
498    
499    checkpoint64f (2013/03/31)
500    o verification/OpenAD:
501      - new (smaller, without OAD_DEBUG) output_oadm.txt generated using gfortran.
502    o verification/isomip, pkg/shelfice and OpenAD:
503      - add OpenAD setup to this exp and make shelfice package work with OpenAD
504    o verification/tutorial_global_oce_biogeo:
505      - update AD and TLM output after turning off ALLOW_FE (in DIC_OPTIONS.h)
506    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
507      - replace adjoint experiment (now similar to fwd input.thermo/ setup).
508    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens, pkg/ptracers and OpenAD:
509      - add OpenAD setup to this exp and make ptracers package work with OpenAD
510    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp.F:
511       mask the asymmetric contribution of the ice-ocean stress (when
512       the turningAngle is non-zero) over open water to avoid stripes
513       in the EVP-solutions after many EVP-substeps. This does not change
514       the verification experiment (because turningAngle=0 in that experiment),
515       but will affect other EVP solutions with turningAngle.ne.0
516    o verification, AD & TLM output:
517      - new TAF version 2.3.10 (previously 2.3.8) add more parenthesis in multiple
518        additions and multiplications which affect results at machine truncation
519        level. Update few AD output (1D_ocean_ice_column, bottom_ctrl_5x5,
520        lab_sea.noseaicedyn & offline_exf_seaice) and TLM output
521        (1D_ocean_ice_column & tutorial_tracer_adjsens.som81) which had only 12
522        digits of matching.
523    o pkg/seaice:
524       modify lsr-algorithm so that it vectorizes AND converges by using a
525       "zebra" method: split vector loop into two with step size 2; this
526       solves a general convergence problem for the JFNK solver on a vector
527       computer. It has the potential to even improve convergence for
528       non-vector machines, but it does change the results so it is turned
529       off by default. To turn on define CPP-flags SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR and
530       SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h
531    
532    checkpoint64e (2013/03/05)
533    o pkg/ecco and several verification experiments:
534       Remove special versions of the_model_main.F, the_main_loop.F, forward_step.F
535       from ecco package, and revert to unified routine in model/src/
536       Adjust verification experiments accordingly, especially gloal_oce_llc90
537       Should conclude long-standing work by Gael to reconsile the_main_loop with
538       ECCO and will enable OpenAD's revolve loop in ECCO setup.
539    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
540      - implement compressible flow method for multi-dim advection (similar to
541        gad_som_advect.F); add new option "GAD_MULTIDIM_COMPRESSIBLE" (since
542        TAF generates many recomputations) to use it; no yet coded with implicit
543        vertical advection.
544      - change experiment advect_cs (new output) and advect_xy (same output)
545        to test compressible flow multi-dim advection.
546    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
547      - fix SOM advection for unusual cases (linear Free-Surf in r*, other
548        cases where linear Free-Surf is not @ k=1, e.g., useShelfIce)
549    o pkg/seaice:
550      - fix bug in the no-slip implementation in seaice_calc_strainrates.F, this
551        bug affects two verification experiments (lab_sea and lab_sea.hb87),
552        recover old (wrong) results by setting noSlipFac = 2. in
553        seaice_calc_strainrates.F;
554      - add another averaging method for etaZ (etaZmethod=3), a mix of 2 and 0
555      - add runtime parameter SEAICE_JFNKepsilon for that finite difference
556        gradient in the Jacobian times vector operation (s/r seaice_jacvec)
557      - fix line search in seaice_jfnk.F (s/r seaice_jfnk_update)
558    o pkg/seaice: reorganize seaice_lsr.F to be able to reuse more code:
559      - new subroutines seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
560      - introduce loop bounds i/jmin/max to be able to use a restricted
561        additive Schwarz method, but not used for now.
562      - rename SEAICE_CALC_LSR_COEFFS into SEAICE_LSR_CALC_COEFFS
563      - use new subroutines seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v in s/r seaice_preconditioner
564    o OpenAD support
565       Reorganize S/R call for overall time-stepping loop to facilitate
566       OpenAD revolve loop replacement
567       (new S/R main_do_loop.F)
568    o model/src:
569      - add 3-D array 3rd dimension to argument list of S/R ADAMS_BASHFORTH2/3;
570      - pkg/cheapaml: remove local S/R ADAMS2d and use instead standard S/R
571        ADAMS_BASHFORTH2.
572    o pkg/cheapaml:
573      - add new parameter (default=F, same as before) to disable full domain
574        (including land) periodicity in X & Y dir.
575      - new S/R CHEAPAML_COPY_EDGES to copy relaxation field into edges of
576        prognostics field ; merge the 2 S/R cycle_2d_tracer and timestep_2d_tracer
577        into single S/R CHEAPAML_TIMESTEP.
578    
579    checkpoint64d (2013/02/17)
580    o pkg/monitor (angular momentum):
581      - do not add Eta contribution to the total AM if using rigid-lid;
582      - correct for Adams-Bashforth in zonal-wind part (instead of in AM_eta).
583      - horizontal discretisation: compute Zonal wind contribution separately for
584        each component (instead of from cell centered averaged) and use the 4
585        grid-cell corner averaged value of Omega*(R*cos_Phi)^2 in AM_eta part.
586      - Check that AM is conserved with linear dynamics (momAdvection=F and linear
587        FreeSurf) if using vectorInvariant momentum.
588    o model/src (horizontal grid):
589      - move initialisation of all horizontal grid arrays to null value
590        from specific horizontal grid S/R to main S/R INI_GRID;
591      - add 2 new arrays to project model C-grid velocity on to zonal direction
592        (similar to AngleCosC & -AngleSinC but at U and V point location) and
593        compute them in S/R CALC_GRID_ANGLES.
594    o pkg/seaice: replace a hard coded parameter by a runtime parameter
595        SEAICE_JFNK_tolIter
596    o pkg/seaice: introduce a restricted additive Schwarz (RAS) method in
597        preconditioner for JFNK (run LSR into the overlaps as far as possible,
598        i.e OLx/y-2, but overwrite the solution in the overlaps)
599      - extend loop range in seaice_calc_viscosity
600      - add new parameters SEAICE_OLx/y (default = OLx/y-2)
601      - add flexible loop ranges to seaice_preconditioner, seaice_calc_lsr_coeffs
602      - slightly modify loops in tridiagonal solver lsr-preconditioner
603      - by default remove the extra exchange in seaice_preconditioner with a
604        replacement of an undocumented CPP flag by SEAICE_PRECOND_EXTRA_EXCHANGE
605      - modify offline_exf_seaice so that old results without RAS are reproduced
606        for output.dyn_jfnk.txt
607      in seaice_fgmres.F (unrelated to RAS)
608      - add a cpp-flag option for a re-ordered mapping (potentially more
609        efficient), but because this changes the results, turn it off by
610        default
611      - replace the save statement by local common blocks
612    o utils/matlab:
613      - fix tile-offset in rdmnc.m when output was produced using EXCH2.
614      - update cs_grid/bk_line scripts to use load_grid.m (in utils/matlab)
615        instead of local script "load_cs.m".
616    o pkg/seaice:
617      - fix a serious bug in seaice_fgmres.F, s/r seaice_scalprod, connected
618        to the scalarProductMetric and the unrolling. By chance this does not
619        change the verification experiment, because of the particular domain
620        decomposition
621    o pkg/diagnostics:
622      - change default missing_value from UNSET_RL to -999.
623    o pkg/layers: improve vectorization of layers_fluxcalc.F
624      - step 1: split loops, make TatU/V 2D arrays. This alone reduces the cpu
625        time spent in this routine by more than a factor of 3 on an NEC-SX8
626      - step 2: replace search algorithm by a bisection algorithm found in
627        Press et al. Numerical Recipes in Fortran. This algorithm can be
628        vectorized and finds the correct bin in approx. log2(Nlayers) steps.
629        For now, use this algorithm only for TARGET_NEC_SX defined.
630      - moved the search algorithm into a separate subroutine, that is kept
631        within the same file for automatic inlining.
632      - modified catching potential errors
633    o pkg/ecco:
634      - add compile switches ALLOW_SHALLOW_ALTIMETRY and ALLOW_HIGHLAT_ALTIMETRY.
635    o model/src, pkg/autodiff, pkg/ctrl, pkg/grdchk :
636      - modifications for ALLOW_GENTIM2D_CONTROL
637      -- forward_step.F, the_main_loop.F : pass options and arrays for adjoint tapes.
638      -- load_fields_driver.F : add call to CTRL_MAP_GENTIM2D( myTime, myIter, myThid )
639      -- add xx_gentim2d0/1 in ctrl_ad_check_lev1_dir.h checkpoint_lev1_directives.h etc
640      -- use ctrl_swapffields.F (new) instead of exf_SwapFFields.F in ctrl_get_gen.F
641    o model/src:
642      - account for moist thermodynamics in (dry) potential temperature equation;
643        update results of experiments: aim.5l_cs (x2), fizhi-cs (std + aqualev)
644        and cpl_aim+ocn.
645      - also switch to standard compiler (gfortran, was using ifort previously)
646        for fizhi-cs experiments reference output.
647    o pkg/ctrl:
648      - 1st step toward generic time-varying control variable (2D) via CPP option
649        ALLOW_GENTIM2D_CONTROL
650      - note new namelist ctrl_nml_genarr in data.ctrl
651    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15:
652      - switch off OLD_THSICE_CALL_SEQUENCE (both forward and AD code) to use new
653        thsice calling sequence and update "output.icedyn.txt" output file.
654    o pkg/ptracers:
655      - from Ryan A.: code to allow to restart a tracer at regular time interval
656        specifying a reset frequency and a reset-phase (for each tracers).
657    o pkg/thsice:
658      - implement new sequence of calls for thsice+seaice:
659          previously:   ice-Dyn,ice-Advect,ice-Thermo(thsice)
660          new sequence: ice-Thermo(thsice),ice-Dyn,ice-Advect
661      - allows (with temporary CPP option "#define OLD_THSICE_CALL_SEQUENCE"
662        in CPP_OPTIONS.h) to recover old sequence;
663      - update diagnostics for Intermediate State thsice diagnostics: now filled
664        just before advection (instead of just after advection in old sequence);
665      - update output of experiment offline_exf_seaice (standard test);
666      - in global_ocean.cs32x15 exp., postpone output.icedyn.txt update
667        by setting #define OLD_THSICE_CALL_SEQUENCE in CPP_OPTIONS.h
668    o pkg/aim_v23:
669      - use tiled array for aim_CO2 and surface wind speed for export to coupler;
670      - use standard pkg/mdsio routines to read & write CO2 pickup file;
671      - in-line S/R AIM_AIM2DYN_EXCHANGES in aim_do_physics.F;
672      - Implement new sequence of calls for seaice advection (with thsice and
673        seaice diffusion): do ice advection after ice-Thermodynamic (previously
674        was done before); change aim_do_physics.F (split the bi,bj loops block);
675      - use same CPP option (OLD_THSICE_CALL_SEQUENCE) to recover old sequence;
676    o pkg/thsice:
677      - add a missing EXCH of sIceLoad in thsice_main.F (ocean set-up) for the case
678        where just seaice diffusion is used without seaice-dynamics.
679    
680    checkpoint64c (2013/01/18)
681    o pkg/seaice:
682      - add a parameter JFNKres_tFac that can replace JFNKres_t
683        (= JFNKres_tFac*JFNKresidual before JFNK solver)
684      - add a line search option to the JFNK solver
685      - move update of u/vIce and computation of initial residual into a separate
686        routine (same file); makes the code a little easier to read (?)
687      - the line search requires computation of the residual and for some reason
688        I cannot do the update of u/vIce at the beginning of the Newton loop
689        without changing the results, so we move computation of the new residual
690        also to the end of the Newton loop, even without the line search
691    o pkg/mdsio:
692      - write missing value (corresponding to undefined array value) to meta files;
693        skip this if missing value is one (UNSET_RL would be a better value for the
694        case of undefined missing value but it's current the default missing-value);
695        Also update mdsio_read_meta.F (reading timeInterval & missing-value).
696    o pkg/exf & thsice:
697      - for diagnostics purpose, fill-up and update Qsw array (+ fill the
698        diagnostics) even when SHORTWAVE_HEATING is #undef;
699    o verification/cfc_example:
700      - turn on pkg/layers with pkg/diagnostics (to test pkg/layers and to
701        illustrate how to use it).
702    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
703      in input: add SEAICErestoreUnderIce=.TRUE., and reduce size of forcing
704        files to only one time-record.
705      in input.thermo: narrow the 2 bands of low initial ice-concentration near
706        N & S edges; switch on SEAICErestoreUnderIce=T; use pkg/diagnostics for
707        snapshot output; same mcPheePiston value as in thsice with
708        surf-current=0.2m/s.
709      in input.thsice: similar set-up as in input.thermo (channel with same seaice
710        initial conditions).
711    o verification/cfc_example:
712      - update file "data" with more standard choice (default rotationPeriod,
713        exactConserv=T, reduce ivdc_kappa to 10, remove multiDimAdvection=F,
714        set deltaTFreeSurf to deltaTtracer) and update the output.
715    o pkg/layers:
716      - fix bolus part so that it compiles with #undef GM_BOLUS_ADVEC;
717      - ensure that "layers_bolus" is switched to False when useGMRedi=False.
718    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
719      - set all {field}period to zero for constant-in-time forcing (not tested
720        anywhere else).
721    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
722      - dyn_lsr  : use pkg/seaice S/R (instead of pkg/thsice) to advect sea-ice;
723      - dyn_jfnk : use pkg/thsice S/R (instead of pkg/seaice) to advect sea-ice.
724    o model/src:
725      - implement Finite-Volume method for (hydrostatic) presure gradient
726        from S.-J. Lin (QJRMS 1997), for atmosphere using sigma-coordinate.
727    o pkg/seaice: implement EVP* by Lemieux et al. (2012).
728      - In order to be compatible with the default EVP code, this requires changing
729        the EVP code around a little; and because any small change immediately
730        breaks the lab_sea.hb87 verification experiment, the reference output is
731        updated two times (each time the remaining aggrement was only 2 digits):
732        - after replacing 1/dt by 1*recip_dt with a precomputed recip_dt
733        - after replacing 1/(1+0.5*dt/tau) by a/(a+1), with a=2*tau/dt
734        The adjoint test lab_sea.evp also needed to be updated.
735      - Turn on EVP* by setting SEAICE_deltaTevp as before, and setting
736        SEAICEuseEVPstar=.true.; for EVP* SEAICE_deltaTevp does not need to be
737        a factor of SEAICE_deltaTdyn, and you can set the number of EVP steps
738        explicitly with SEAICEnEVPstarSteps (thereby overriding the default of
739        INT(SEAICE_deltaTdyn/SEAICE_deltaTevp)). Controlling EVP* is deliberately
740        kept obscure, because I need to test it a little more.
741    o pkg/cheapaml:
742      - fix few incorrect type (_RL/_RS) in subroutine calls.
743    o pkg/seaice:
744      - new S/R SEAICE_MAP_RS2VEC (similar to SEAICE_MAP2VEC) to map _RS arrays
745        to _RL vector; this fixes JFNK code when compiling with "-use_r4" option.
746    o model/src:
747      - add a warning if using select_rStar=2 with nonlinFreeSurf <> 4;
748        change (in input_ad*/data) select_rStar from 2 to 1 for AD verification
749        experiments global_ocean.cs32x15 & tutorial_tracer_adjsens (+ update output)
750    o pkg/cheapaml:
751      - replace "273.1 _d 0" by celsius2K in pkg/cheapaml/cheapaml.F and
752        update output of experiment cheapAML_box.
753      - store in CHEAPAML.h coeffs ssq[0:2] for saturation specific humidity,
754        and set them only in one place (cheapaml_readparms.F).
755      - replace "273.16 _d 0" by celsius2K & replace "3.14159 _d 0" by constant "PI"
756      - remove re-setting of main-model parameter "celsius2K" (in cheapaml_readparms)
757        and re-setting of cheapAML params "lath" & "p0" (in cheapaml_init_varia).
758    o model/src/the_main_loop.F:
759      - fix revision 129 : need both ALLOW_ECCO and ALLOW_ECCO_EVOLUTION.
760    o pkg/seaice:
761      - remove legacy branch code.
762      - retire SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY and SEAICE_CAP_HEFF accordingly.
763    o verification/*/code*/SEAICE_OPTIONS.h:
764      - remove documentation for retired CPP flags (SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY,
765        SEAICE_CAP_HEFF).
766    o pkg/cheapaml:
767      - use standard routine (S/R GET_PERIODIC_INTERVAL) to decide when it is time
768        to load new forcing fields.
769      - add missing "_d 0" where it's needed; + some editing (improve indentation).
770      - remove switch to "-r8" compiler option (no longer needed) in verification
771        cheapAML_box, keep same output (small trucation error differences).
772    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
773      - add thermodynamics only test.
774    o verification/cheapAML_box:
775      - split the domain in 8 (2x4) tiles; add MPI and multi-threaded test;
776        keep same output (same 14 digits for cg2d).
777      - switch on "-r8" compiler option (some numerical values are missing
778        the "_d 0") and update output (only 6 digits for cg2d were preserved).
779    
780    checkpoint64b (2012/12/24)
781    o pkg/cheapaml:
782      - remove un-used variables (Qnet,EmPmR) from pickup files.
783      - store tendency of advected variables into cheapaml pickup file
784        and fix the AB-2 restart.
785    o verification/offline_exf_seaice and lab_sea adjoint:
786      - switch to new code (#undef SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY).
787      - switch to 4 time steps in offline, consistent with lab_sea.
788      - match parameters from SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY branch in data.seaice.
789      - update results after change of experiment seaice.
790    o pkg/seaice:
791      - remove option SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY; has been replaced with run-time
792        parameter SEAICE_multDim. Issue a warning if SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY is
793        still defined since SEAICE_multDim needs to be set to MULTDIM value (from
794        SEAICE_SIZE.h) to recover previous #define SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY default.
795    o model/src:
796      - add run-time parameter to select CG2D solver minimum-residual solution
797        (in case of a poor convergence).
798    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F
799      - move calculation of matrix coefficients into new
800        S/R SEAICE_CALC_LSR_COEFFS; for now this routine remains in the same
801        file; the main purpose of this change is to be able to reuse the code
802        in S/R SEAICE_PRECONDITIONER
803      - modify the computation of the residual so that the mass of sea-ice
804        is not used twice; this simplifies the calculations, but since
805        the residual is never used except when LSR_mixIniGuess.ge.4---and this is
806        not tested in testreport---this does not affect the testreport results.
807    o verification/seaice_obcs:
808      - disable SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY; reset input files to match those of
809        verification/lab_sea/input.salt_plume; changes results/output.txt*
810    o model/src:
811      - adapt quasi-hydrostatic formulation to work with p or p* coordinate.
812    o pkg/seaice:
813      - improve description of parameters in seaice_fgmres.F and start
814        cleaning up the code
815      - change name of SCALPROD to SEAICE_SCALPROD and modify meaning of
816        second argument
817      - add a metric based on grid cell area to SEAICE_SCALPROD; update
818        results of offline_exf_seaice.dyn_jfnk
819      - compute initial residual norm in seaice_jfnk based on SEAICE_SCALPROD
820    o pkg/aim_v23:
821      - fix an other bug in dissipation heating (grid-cell area was missing).
822    o model/src + pkg/seaice:
823      - add global (multi-tile) linear solver for pair of tri-diagonal system
824        along X and Y lines, respectively for U and V component.
825        Note: 1) MPI and cube-exchange not yet coded.
826            2) probably not accurate for poorly conditioned / large size problem.
827      - add option for SEAICE_LSR to use global (multi-tile) tri-diagonal solver;
828        default: not compiled and not used.
829    o pkg/seaice:
830      - first attempt at a multi-threaded fgmres solver for the JFNK solver:
831        introduce bi/bj loops and use global_sum_tile_rl instead of
832        mpi_allreduce in seaice_fgmres.F
833      - improve diagnostics output for fgmres solver (seaice_fgmres.F)
834      - replace a few unnecessary goto statements by if-blocks  (seaice_fgmres.F)
835      - add a verification experiment for JFNK in offline_exf_seaice
836    o verification:
837      - change (for now, only fwd test) offline_exf_seaice experiment:
838        use a re-entrant channel with idealized coastline (trapezoidal shape)
839        at southern boundary to explore seaice dynamics and thermodynamics
840        with simple forcing. Main set-up has dynamics+thermo and SST relaxation;
841        secondary test (input.thsice) use thermodynamics only with SST relaxation.
842      - add seaice-dynamics only secondary test using LSR and pkg/thsice advection.
843    o pkg/exf:
844      - disable "sstExtrapol" when Nr=1
845    o verification:
846      - add new experiment "cheapAML_box" (simple 1 layer set-up from Bruno Deremble)
847        to test pkg/cheapaml.
848    o pkg/aim_v23 & pkg/shap_filt:
849      - fix dissipation heating (erroneous gravity multiplication factor).
850    o pkg/seaice:
851      - remove unused field pressPre from jfnk solver
852      - rename two subroutines in seaice_preconditioner.F
853    o eesupp/src:
854       - S/R MDSFINDUNIT avoids reserved unit numbers (scrUnit1, eeDataUnit ...)
855    o pkg/seaice/seaice_preconditioner.F: fix preconditioner once again
856       - remove wrong parts of the rhs and the lhs (were in there
857         because I did not understand the concept of this preconditioner)
858       - add an exchange between u- and v-sweep. This increases communication
859         by a factor of two but improves the convergence of jfnk. Ideally,
860         one would like the u- and v-sweep to be independent. So far within
861         undocumented ifdefs
862       - reorganize the extra computations for printing the residuals
863    o tools/genmake2:
864      - comment out the "mpif.h" include in NetCDF test programm (for MPI built)
865        since it's not necessary (and was preventing to use MNC in some cases).
866    
867    checkpoint64a (2012/11/16)
868    o pkg/autodiff:
869      - improve pkg-internal logical parameter switch (inAd/inFwd mode) so that
870        autodiff_readparms.F no longer depends on calling order (within
871        packages_readparms.F) and no longer requires to include ${PKG}_PARMS.h):
872        rename param turnFreeDriftInAdMode to SEAICEuseFREEDRIFTswitchInAd
873        and change param SEAICEuseDYNAMICSinAdMode to SEAICEuseDYNAMICSswitchInAd.
874    o pkg/obcs:
875      - adding tidal velocity forcing capability to obcs
876        for usage example, see verification/seaice_obcs/input.tides
877    o pkg/seaice:
878      - turn the LSR-relaxation parameters WFAU/V into runtime parameters
879        SEAICE_LSRrelaxU/V
880      - introduce runtime parameter SEAICEetaZmethod (=0 by default)
881    o pkg/aim_v23:
882      - implement heating from friction (bottom friction and stratospheric drag).
883    o pkg/shap_filt:
884      - fix diagnostic "SHAP_dKE" (was 2 time smaller); implement heating from
885        dissipation but only for Shap_funct=2, active when addFrictionHeating=T.
886    o model/src:
887      - move AddMass common block from DYNVARS.h to FFIELDS.h; allow to read-in
888        time-constant addMass field from file (addMassFile);
889      - support for heating due to friction (and Kinetic Energy dissipation):
890        add option, run-time switch and 3-D field array + support code ; each pkg
891        or S/R can add heating contribution (if there is a sink of KE); the sum is
892        accounted for as a Temperature tendency term (EXTERNAL_FORCING_T).
893    o pkg/seaice:
894      - complete merge of ITD code into seaice_growth.F
895        from MITgcm_contrib/torge/itd/code/
896        no verification so far, but Torge Martin tested
897        "1-D test case and Beaufort set up;
898        deliver okay results after 1 model year."
899      - complete merge of SEAICE_SIZE.h into all relevant routines
900      - move computation of eta at Z-points into calc_viscosities
901        + introduce global field etaZ
902        + add different methods for computing etaZ, for now the old
903          method (simple averages of eta to Z-points) is hardwired
904        + replace etaMeanZ by etaZ in seaice_lsr, seaice_calc_residual,
905          seaice_preconditioner
906      - simplify computations for SEAICE_ZETA_SMOOTHREG
907      - seaice_preconditioner:
908        + replace one remaining press by pressLoc (mistake)
909        + adjust printing of residuals
910      - improve I/O of diagnostics of JFNK in seaice_jfnk.F:
911        + add (SEAICE.h) and rename some counters (initiliased in
912          seaice_init_fixed.F)
913        + add _BEGIN/END_MASTER (myThid)  around print statements
914        + print total number of iterations and failures over SEAICE_monFreq
915          interval to STDOUT
916      - move control over output-messages by fgmres to seaice_jfnk to save
917        some operations
918      - move resetting initial guess for fgmres outside of seaice_fgmres_driver
919        in order to make restarts with sol .ne. zero (fgmres with restarts)
920        (seaice_jfnk.F, seaice_fgmres.F)
921      - seaice_calc_l/rhs.F: replace maskW/S by maskInW/S; this fixes
922        a serious convergence problem when open boundaries are involved
923    o pkg/ggl90: fix computation of control volumes for the case of
924      ALLOW_GGL90_HORIZDIFF (probably not used very often): move control volumes
925      up half a grid cell from C-centered to W-centered (pointed out by C. Eden)
926    o pkg/seaice: simplify seaice_evp by avoiding use of extra fields u/vIceC
927    o pkg/autodiff
928      - Add inAdMode switch for SEAICEuseDYNAMICS:
929        SEAICEuseDYNAMICSinAdMode
930        (extend logic in ADAUTODIFF_INADMODE_SET)
931    o pkg/seaice
932      - Step 1 of merging ice-thickness distribution (ITD) code from
933        MITgcm_contrib/torge/itd/ (author: Torge Martin)
934        The code implements concept laid out in Thorndike et al. (1975);
935        code is enabled via CPP flag SEAICE_ITD
936        nITD (in SEAICE_SIZE.h) defines number of ice thickness categories;
937        code is not complete yet!!
938      - SEAICE_SIZE.h now included in almost all seaice routines
939    o verification (using seaice):
940      - switch back seaice-dynamics (+ lower SOLV_MAX_ITERS) in ADM exp.
941        global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice ; update results.
942      - compile B-grid dynamics in FW test exp 1D_ocean_ice_column ;
943      - compile C-grid dynamics with #define SEAICE_ALLOW_JFNK in FW test exp
944        offline_exf_seaice (previously compiling B-grid).
945    o pkg/exf:
946      - fix some STOP conditions in exf_check.F (from Aug 28, modifs did not allow
947        to specify neither just 1 comp of wind or wind-stress, nor no surface momentum
948        forcing): just replace CPP option ALLOW_ATM_WIND with run-time param useAtmWind.
949    o pkg/layers (adjust changes from Sept 19):
950      - do snap-shot output and fill diagnostics from inside iLa loop (layers_calc.F)
951        this allows to remove "layers_maxNum" dimension from all layers arrays.
952    o pkg/layers (adjust changes from Sept 19):
953      - remove ALLOW_LAYERS_OUTPUT ; fix snap-shot and time-ave output ;
954      - snap-shot extended to all type of layers (not just the 1rst type);
955      - remove layers variables when corresponding CPP option is undef.
956    o pkg/layers:
957      - rename pkg/layers variable and add new output (layer exist & un-weighted
958        velocity in layer)
959    o pkg/seaice:
960      - simplify (?) ocean-drag coefficent computations by using
961        the same routine in all three solvers (saves some code lines)
962      - remove global fields DRAGA and DRAGS from C-grid code and
963        declare them locally in lsr.F (the only place where they are
964        still used)
965      - update AD output of lab_sea.evp (very sensitive anyway).
966    o pkg/seaice: add Jacobian-free Newton Krylov solver for ice dynamics
967      (Lemieux et al. 2010, 2012). Turn on with the usual SEAICE_ALLOW_JFNK
968      and SEAICEuseJFNK=.true. A few things to note:
969      - involves a FGMRES, that is parallel but very inefficient,
970        because of many scalar products (global sums) in the Gram-Schmidt
971        orthogonalization method. Needs to be replaced. Original code
972        from J.-F. Lemieux
973      - preconditioner for FGMRES is a stripped down version of LSOR
974      - SOLV_MAX_ITERS is now used for LSOR as a solver and as a
975        preconditioner. For the preconditioner, the default is set to 10.
976      - Jacobian times vector is computed with finite differences
977      - marginally related to JFNK-solver: add a smooth regularization for
978        zeta with tanh that will improve convergence (Lemieux and Tremblay,
979        2009) for any implicit solver (not implemented for EVP because EVP
980        does not need this regularization in the first place). Define
981        SEAICE_ZETA_SMOOTHREG in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h to use.
982    o eesupp/src:
983      - check in genmake2 that intrinsic S/R flush is available.
984      - add S/R to flush IO unit (if intrinsic S/R flush is available)
985      - flush standard & error msg unit before MPI termination
986      - if debugMode, flush IO unit after printing msg
987    o pkg/ctrl:
988      - ctrl_unpack.F, ALLOW_GENARR3D_CONTROL code: fix missing argument in call
989        to ctrl_set_unpack_xyz.
990    
991    checkpoint64 (2012/10/09)
992    o pkg/shelfice
993      - in mom_fluxform.F, mom_vecinv.F:
994        CALL SHELFICE_V_DRAG(bi,bj,k,vFld,KE,KappaRU,vF,myThid)
995        Bug fix KappaRU -> KappaRV
996        does not change verification/isomip but may change other setups
997        (presumably constant KappaRU=KappaRV)
998      - fix diagnostics SHIU/Vdrag (thanks to Tom Millgate)
999    o pkg/obcs:
1000      - fixed some indexing bugs in obcs_seaice_sponge.F
1001      - added obcs relaxation subroutines for HSALT and HSNOW
1002      - changes verification/seaice_obcs/results/obcs_seaice_sponge.F
1003    o pkg/seaice:
1004      - add "multicategory" parameterization for snow in analogy to ice,
1005        default is off for now.
1006    o pkg/obcs:
1007      - added obcs_seaice_sponge.F for obcs relaxation of seaice variables;
1008        see verification/seaice_obcs/input.seaiceSponge for example application.
1009      - remove local commom bloc "OBCS_GLOBAL" in obcs_readparms.F and do all the OB
1010        index setting by master-thread. This fix multi-threads Pb in previous modifs.
1011    o pkg/layers :
1012      - add diagnostics to pkg/layers
1013      - move the meat of pkg/layers from layers_calc.F to layers_fluxcalc.F
1014        (from R.Tulloch). Layers_calc.F now calls layers_fluxcalc.F accordingly.
1015    o pkg/generic_advdiff/gad_implicit_r.F :
1016      - fix ADVr diagnostics in case of both implicit vertical advection and diffusion.
1017    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F:
1018      - fix SItflux diagnostics in virtual salt flux + balanceEmpmr case.
1019    o pkg/obcs:
1020      - change default setting of OBCS_UVICE_OLD from defined to undef;
1021      - use new parameter OB_indexNone for null index value (instead of hard-coded 0)
1022        in all pkg/obcs code and in other pkgs; remove k loop in obcs_check_depths.F;
1023      - pass OB_indexNone as (new) argument to S/R CTRL_MASK_SET_[X,Y]Z;
1024      - change OB null index value (OB_indexNone) to -99 ; this fix the problem
1025        with Southern & Western OB at a tile edge (at least in a simple set-up).
1026    o pkg/obcs:
1027      - change settings of OB index in case OB coincides with tile edge (shared by
1028        2 tiles), so that common OB location is registered by both tiles (instead of
1029        only 1). However, for Southern and Western OB, index value = 0 is not
1030        recognized as valid OB index (=default null value) and needs to be fixed.
1031      - modify accordingly OBCS_BALANCE_FLOW and OBCS_MONITOR (avoid double counting)
1032      - new parameter "OB_indexNone" for null index value (for now, still zero)
1033        to replace hard-coded null index value of zero.
1034    o pkg/exch2:
1035      - improve W2_USE_E2_SAFEMODE (faster) and W2_E2_DEBUG_ON:
1036        always check buffer-size (but outside the loop); move checking for valid
1037        index from W2_USE_E2_SAFEMODE to W2_E2_DEBUG_ON; in W2_E2_DEBUG_ON,
1038        print each tile and point connection only if |W2_printMsg|>= 2 and 3.
1039    o pkg/ctrl (pack & unpack):
1040      - in ctrl_pack.F & ctrl_unpack.F, use the same local file-name variable
1041        (locally defined) for different variables (+ remove the variable-specific
1042        file name in CTRL_GENARR.h). For now, only implemented for GENARR2/3D_CONTROL
1043        (to be extended to other local file names in ctrl.h).
1044    o pkg/flt:
1045      - add a FLT_Iter0 option (similar to PTRACERS_Iter0).
1046    o pkg/mdsio:
1047      - fix missing STOP in mdsio_readvec_loc.F (case ioUnit=0) when file is missing
1048    o tools/genmake2:
1049      - add similar dependences for target EXE_AD & EXE_FTL as we have for EXECUTABLE
1050        (added by Alistair in version 1.51 for building without make depend);
1051      - remove Header files list (H_SRC_FILES) from the dependence of targets
1052         ad_input_code.f & ftl_input_code.f (not clear why it was added in the first
1053        place in version 1.23): this save going through staf when unrelated header
1054        file has been modified.
1055       Note: for an intermediate target (e.g., ad_input_code.f or adtaf) without
1056        "make depend" step, still need to do "make links" before "make adtaf".
1057    o eesupp/src (+ few pkg src files) & genmake2:
1058      - finish to remove ALWAYS_USE_MPI in source code that TAF does not see;
1059      - no longer set ALWAYS_USE_MPI in Makefile (was done by genmake2).
1060      - improve genmake2 checking for ALLOW_${PKG} in CPP_OPTIONS.h files (distinguish
1061         upper/lower case ; account for space between "#" and undef/define)
1062    o pkg/flt (with exch2):
1063      - cleaning: fix so that it compiles; move remaining MPI calls out of flt_exch2.F;
1064      - simplify threads synchronisation; fix (many issues) multi-threaded with MPI.
1065    
1066    checkpoint63s (2012/09/05)
1067    o pkg/ecco:
1068      - remove #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL3D brackets.
1069      - add more relevant #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH ones.
1070      - sort out useAtmWind, useSMOOTH, ctrlSmoothCorrel2D.
1071    o pkg/ctrl:
1072      - CTRL_OPTIONS.h : document CPPs related to smoothing; ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL2D/3D,
1073        ALLOW_CTRL_SMOOTH, ALLOW_SMOOTH_CTRL2D, ALLOW_SMOOTH_CTRL3D.
1074      - ctrl.h : document run time params doInitXX, doMainPack, doMainUnpack, doPackDiag,
1075        doSinglePrecTapelev (audodiff param!), ctrlSmoothCorrel2D (new) and
1076        ctrlSmoothCorrel3D (new).
1077        The added ctrlSmoothCorrel2D/3D replace the old ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL2D/3D CPP.
1078      - ctrl_readparms.F : initialise ctrlSmoothCorrel2D/3D and read from namelist.
1079      - ctrl_init.F ctrl_pack.F ctrl_unpack.F : switch off ustress/vstress
1080        controls when useAtmWind, and vice versa.
1081      - ctrl_map_ini_ecco.F : UVEL0, VVEL0, edtaux, edtauy cannot be smoothed as tracers.
1082      - ctrl_get_gen.F : replace #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL2D with
1083          #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH, IF ctrlSmoothCorrel2D, IF useSMOOTH.
1084      - ctrl_map_ini_gen.F : replace #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL3D with
1085          #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH, IF ctrlSmoothCorrel3D, IF useSMOOTH.
1086      - ctrl_set_pack_xy[z].F, ctrl_set_unpack_xy[z].F:
1087        replace ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL2D/3D brackets with ctrlSmoothCorrel2D/3D.
1088    o pkg/smooth:
1089      - remove un-necessary includes.
1090      - remove ALLOW_SMOOTH*D and ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL*D brakets.
1091        Those CPP options were never defined, and not necessary.
1092    o model/src:
1093      - fix CPP brackets in ini_mixing.F (GM_background_K belongs to gmredi).
1094      - standard treatment of useSMOOTH.
1095    o pkg/autodiff:
1096      - add LOGICAL useGGL90inAdMode, useGGL90inFwdMode, useSALT_PLUMEinAdMode,
1097        useSALT_PLUMEInFwdMode allowing to switch off ggl90 and salt_plume adjoint.
1098    o pkg/exch2:
1099      - add "if usingMPI" where it was missing (in exch2_rx?_cube*.template)
1100        + start to remove ALWAYS_USE_MPI in source code that TAF does not see.
1101      - make new S/R W2_MAP_PROCS out of w2_eeboot.F to setup exch2 CommonFlag
1102        and tiles to process mapping.
1103      - re-arrange 3 header files (W2_EXCH2_PARAMS.h, _BUFFER.h & _TOPOLOGY.h)
1104        moving /EXCH2_FILLVAL_RX/ & /W2_EXCH2_COMMFLAG/ to W2_EXCH2_TOPOLOGY.h;
1105        rename "exch2_tProc" to "W2_tileProc" and move seting of e2FillValue_RX
1106        from w2_eeboot.F to w2_readparms.F.
1107    o eesupp/src:
1108      - set exchNeedsMemsync & exchUsesBarrier according to "usingMPI" (instead of
1109        ALWAYS_USE_MPI) + moved from ini_communication_patterns.F to eeset_parms.F;
1110        also move setting of exchCollectStatistics from exch_init.F to eeset_parms.F
1111      - in eedie.F and all_proc_die.F, always call MPI_FINALIZE when ALLOW_USE_MPI
1112        is defined (remove condition on usingMPI) to match cases where MPI_INIT
1113        has been called.
1114      - fix bug I put in previous modif of exch_sm_3d_rx.template (not much used);
1115      - change default (non-MPI) value of myPid (from 1 to 0) to match MPI settings
1116        (so that on 1 proc, get same myPid independently of usingMPI)
1117      - add a stop if multi-procs but usingMPI=F ; stop also if usingMPI=T and
1118        useCubedSphereExchange with EXCH-1 (safer).
1119      - add "if usingMPI" where it was missing (+ start to remove ALWAYS_USE_MPI).
1120    o pkg/ggl90:
1121      - fix bug in filling corner mask array "mskCor" (FILL_CS_CORNER_TR_RL call)
1122        used in ALLOW_GGL90_SMOOTH code.
1123    o pkg/flt:
1124      - fix typo in FLT_WITHOUT_Y_PERIODICITY (the effect was to ignore stopping
1125        floats at the Southern end of the domain).
1126    o eesupp/inc:
1127      - add a list of CPP-options which can be set by Makefile (DEF_IN_MAKEFILE.h);
1128        but not used (and not to be used) anywhere, just for documentation.
1129    o pkg/autodiff, exf, ptracers & seaice (AD & TL output):
1130      - comment out the very nasty "writeBinaryPrec = writeStatePrec" line, since:
1131        a) can damage previously written records in any other multi-record files.
1132        b) if needed, can easily do it cleanly, by calling S/R WRITE_REC_3D_RL/S.
1133    o tools/genmake2:
1134      - define variable MAKE within Makefile and use it in place of 'make';
1135      - update AD_CONFIG.h (if needed) before building any of the executable
1136        (forward, adjoint or tangent-lin); this involves a 2nd invocation of make;
1137        and add the usual #ifndef/#define AD_CONFIG_H in AD_CONFIG.h;
1138      - always print usual warning comment 'this file is automatically generated'
1139        from script convert_cpp_cmd2defines (+ remove this warning from genmake2).
1140    o pkg/cheapaml:
1141      - updated to correspond to the code used in accepted paper (Nico Wienders).
1142    o pkg/exf:
1143        added run time switch useAtmWind to replace ALLOW_ATM_WIND cpp switch.
1144        ALLOW_ATM_WIND now just sets the useAtmWind default (see exf_readparms.F)
1145        and force defines ALLOW_BULKFORMULAE (EXF_OPTIONS.h).
1146    o pkg/exf, autodiff, ctrl, ecco and seaice:
1147        remove ALLOW_ATM_WIND brackets, or replace them with useAtmWind ones.
1148    o pkg/ctrl, ecco:
1149        allow to compile both ALLOW_U/VSTRESS_CONTROL and ALLOW_U/VWIND_CONTROL.
1150        Depending on useAtmWind, one is inactive, and the other is active (see
1151        exf_getffields.F/exf_getsurfacefluxes.F).
1152    o tools/genmake2:
1153      - improve error msg when failing in 2nd test of check_for_broken_Ff
1154      - fix option '-makefile' short-name (-mf according to genmake2 -help)
1155      - source local config file "genmake_local" just after processing the genmake2
1156        command arguments (previously done before processing arg).
1157    o pkg/grdchk:
1158      - add a call to TURNOFF_MODEL_IO for Tangent-Linear run (in this case, call
1159        to this routine from cost_final has been dropped in g_cost_final)
1160      - improve printed information (more explicit msg, no longer using "print *,"
1161         fix fcpertminus printed value).
1162    o model/src:
1163      - move call to COST_INIT_VARIA out of packages_init_variables.F directly
1164        into initialise_varia.F (just after calling PACKAGES_INIT_VARIABLES):
1165        this prevents getting cost-funct reset in adinitialise_varia recomputations.
1166    o pkg/dic:
1167      - move initialisation of "freefe" array from from dic_biotic_forcing.F to
1168        fe_chem.F: this prevents TAF from dropping this initialisation in TLM code.
1169    o pkg/grdchk:
1170      - grdchk_main.F : added CALL GLOBAL_SUM_INT( ierr , myThid )
1171      - grdchk_getadxx.F etc. : omit I/O if ierr.EQ.0
1172    o pkg/autodiff/ctrl/grdchk :
1173      - attempt to sort out what works and what does not,
1174        with regard to I/O, and to warn/stop accordingly.
1175    o pkg/grdchk:
1176      - attempt to fix grdchk in the case of useSingleCpuIO.
1177      - "if ( myProcId .EQ. grdchkwhichproc .AND. ierr .EQ. 0 )"
1178       statements were moved from grdchk_main.F and into
1179       grdchk_getadxx.F grdchk_getxx.F grdchk_setxx.F.
1180      - a global sum is applied to record numbers icvrec/layer
1181       out of grdchk_loc so that they be passed to I/O routines.
1182    o pkg/smooth:
1183      - fix recomputation that appeared with nlfs : use smooth_recip_hFacC,
1184        smooth_hFacW, smooth_hFacS (copied at init_fixed) in 3d case.
1185    o verification/testreport:
1186      - add option '-tlm' for Tangent-Linear test (-adm,-oad,-tlm are all exclusive);
1187      - can also use compressed (gzip) reference output file;
1188      - change format (in pkg/grdchk) of TLM output (+ add forward gradient)
1189        to be easier to collect by testreport.
1190      - update existing TLM output (half out-of-date by more than 3 yrs).
1191      - report NETCDF & LAPACK settings (from genmake2) in output dir.
1192      - report run-time in each individual summary (previously only for AD test);
1193        for TLM test, add also TAF version.
1194      - add daily TLM test on (old) aces cluster + weekly test on baudelaire.
1195    
1196    checkpoint63r (2012/08/15)
1197    o tools/genmake2:
1198      - fix Makefile for target ftlall (+ update files to clean after make ftlall)
1199    o pkg/ecco/ecco_cost_final.F :
1200      - fix fc print statements (to stdout and costfunction0000) so
1201        that the printed value is always after the global sum.
1202    o pkg/seaice/seaice_dynsolver.F :
1203      - fix ice strength assymptote at SEAICE_area_max<1
1204        (no change for the standard case of SEAICE_area_max=1)
1205    o some cleaning:
1206      - pkg source files: ensure that all *.F files from each pkg included the
1207        corresponding ${PKG}_OPTIONS.h file (except stand-alone src file which
1208        only includes CPP_EEOPTIONS.h); fix S/R CTRL_SMOOTH ; update AD experiment
1209        code_ad/*.F src files; add new option-file in pkg/admtlm + corresponding
1210        includes;
1211      - model/src: add PACKAGES_CONFIG.h wherever ALLOW_AUTODIFF[_TAMC] is used.
1212      - ALLOW_DIFFKR_CONTROL: add a stop in S/R CTRL_CHECK in case ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR
1213        is undef; also define /DYNVARS_DIFFKR/ common block in DYNVARS.h when
1214        ALLOW_DIFFKR_CONTROL is defined, to allow to compile and reach this stop.
1215      - update option-file CPP_OPTIONS.h of all AD experiments:
1216        * no longer include PACKAGES_CONFIG.h ;
1217        * includes ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h if PACKAGES_CONFIG.h has been included ;
1218        * def/undef ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR independently of ALLOW_DIFFKR_CONTROL (before
1219          including ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h).
1220    o pkg/cost, pkg/ctrl, pkg/ecco option-file:
1221      - clean-up and split content of old pkg/ecco/ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h file into
1222        separated pkg option-file (done according to old doc from ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h,
1223        not necessary accurate).
1224      - add a template for option-file ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h, mostly empty, in
1225        pkg/autodiff, i.e., the 1rst pkg to compile for adjoint built, with lines to
1226        deliberately break compilation (a remainder that it needs to be customized)
1227      - in pkg/ecco, includes ECCO_OPTIONS.h instead of COST_OPTIONS.h
1228      - rename COST_CPPOPTIONS.h to COST_OPTIONS.h
1229      - rename CTRL_CPPOPTIONS.h to CTRL_OPTIONS.h
1230    o tools/genamke2:
1231      - check for lapack.
1232    o pkg/cost and pkg/ecco : attempt to sort out some of the limiting intricacies.
1233      - pkg/cost.cost_final.F : allow for use of pkg/ecco and pkg/cost cost functions
1234        jointly. The exclusive ifdefs were removed, to add costs terms (when defined)
1235        from both packages.
1236      - the fc global sum in pkg/ecco/ecco_cost_final.F was removed accordingly.
1237      - for objf_atl we use either the pkg/ecco or the pkg/cost term depending on CPPs.
1238      - pkg/ecco and model/src : add CPP brackets around pkg/cost and pkg/ctrl includes
1239        of "CTRL_SIZE.h" "ctrl.h" "ctrl_dummy.h" "optim.h" / "cost.h" accordingly.
1240    o pkg/cost : add comments to explain special and/or untested setups.
1241    o pkg/exf:
1242      - use EXF_OPTIONS.h to set pkg/exf options except if done in ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h
1243        (previously, ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC was controling this switch).
1244    o verification/*/code_ad:
1245      mimimal cleaning of AD experiments ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h option-file:
1246      - reccord when this file is included (define ECCO_CPPOPTIONS_H)
1247      - remove the most obvious obsolete features (e.g., #define ALLOW_COST not
1248        allowed since Oct 2003 in any option-file except in PACKAGES_CONFIG.h)
1249    o pkg/seaice :
1250      - added possibility to change ice strength/PRESS0 relationship to
1251        HEFF, according to the following run time parameters
1252        SEAICEpresPow0 :: HEFF exponent for ice strength below SEAICEpresH0 (integer, >0)
1253        SEAICEpresPow1 :: HEFF exponent for ice strength above SEAICEpresH0 (integer, >0)
1254        SEAICEpresH0   :: HEFF threshold for ice strength            (m)
1255    o pkg/ggl90 :
1256      - added run time flag mxlSurfFlag to include the code that ensure
1257        mixing between first and second level (previously included as a comment)
1258    o verification/1D_ocean_ice_column/input_ad/data.autodiff :
1259      - add test of newly added dumpAdByRec=T option where
1260        we write all records to one file per variable.
1261    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/code_ad/CPP_OPTIONS.h :
1262      - switch to #define ALLOW_BALANCE_RELAX and ALLOW_BALANCE_FLUXES
1263        to check that this code is ok with taf and compiles in adjoint.
1264    o pkg/autodiff :
1265      - added run time param dumpAdByRec : ad dump format switch.
1266        If true then write all records to one file per variable.
1267        Else write one file per record (remains the default).
1268      - revise seaice_ad_dump.F and exf_adjoint_snapshots_ad.F accordingly.
1269    o pkg/seaice:
1270     - Added SEAICEuseTILT run time switch : if set to
1271       false then omit the tilt term in seaice dynamics.
1272     - Fix free drift calculation.
1273    o pkg/shelfice:
1274      When initializing SHELFICEDragQuadratic, set default to be
1275      consistent with shiCdrag in case SHELFICEuseGammaFrict is used,
1276      but retain option to set it independently
1277      (inconsistenty spotted by Veronique Dansereau)
1278    o eesupp/inc:
1279      - in EEPARAMS.h, add real-type constant for some frequently used simple number
1280         (0,1,2,1/2), with name explicitly referring to RS/RL type.
1281    o model/src:
1282      - move balancing of relaxation terms to new S/R balance_relax.F.
1283    o pkg/autodiff:
1284      re-write active I/O high-level (control) S/R:
1285      - rename  S/R ACTIVE_READ/WRITE_RL to ACTIVE_READ/WRITE_3D_RL
1286      - add 1 more argument (useCurrentDir) to replace the "_LOC" 2nd set of S/R.
1287      - use standard pkg/mdsio I/O routines (MDS_READ/WRITE_SEC_XZ/YZ  and
1288        MDS_READ/WRITE_FIELD); change loops to multi-threads.
1289      - update and merge active_file_control_slice.flow into active_file_control.flow
1290      - update the calls in lower level S/R (active_file.F, active_file_g.F and
1291        active_file_ad.F) keeping the argument list and function unchanged.
1292      - also update lower-level "_LOC" version (call same S/R with "useCurrentDir
1293        =.TRUE.") and remove high-level (control) _loc version (not called anymore).
1294      - new low-level active I/O routines, one for each type (RL/RS), for active var
1295        of various (XY,XZ,YZ) shape and level number (arguments: arrShape, myNr);
1296        fix ctrl_init_wet.F & ecco_cost_weights.F by calling the new S/R with the
1297        right type.
1298    o autodiff and RS=real*4:
1299      - call the right type (_RS instead of _RL) of S/R in few output S/R (pkg/exf
1300        ad-monitor and snapshots); disable arrType='RS' in mdsio_gl*.F ;
1301      - change argument type of 3-D mask argument to _RS to match type in the call
1302        (in seaice_cost*.F, ctrl_*_gen.F and *ctrl_bound.F); to be continued.
1303    o pkg/thsice:
1304      - re-anable balanceEmPmR when useSEAICE=T with useThSIce=T.
1305      - option to correct ocean fresh-water flux for imbalance of Atmos+Land
1306        fresh-water flux: uniform correction or proportional to local precip.
1307    o pkg/ctrl:
1308      - new header file CTRL_SIZE.h for parameters maxCtrlArr2D, maxCtrlArr3D
1309      - redefine CPP option ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG_CONTROL to
1310                            ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG_CONTROL_NONGENERIC
1311      - verification/hs94.1x64x5/ tests ALLOW_GENARR{2D,3D}_CONTROL
1312    
1313    checkpoint63q (2012/07/30)
1314    o pkg/autodiff:
1315      note about monitor and snap-shot of ad-variables:
1316      a) need to apply ADEXCH before monitor or output of ad-vars to include
1317       overlap contributions (was done for adjDump but missing for monitor).
1318      b) since ADEXCH implies adding overlap values to interior array, machine
1319       truncation error is expected when adding an ADEXCH call in the middle of
1320       the time-stepping (although mathematically identical).
1321      modifs:
1322      - fix some incorrect type (RL/RS, UV/scalar) in ADEXCH calls and ad-vars
1323        declaration (adEddyPsiX,adEddyPsiY in adcommon.h).
1324      - add new run-time params (dumpAdVarExch & mon_AdVarExch) to select how  to
1325        apply ADEXCH before monitor or snap-shot of ad-variables:
1326           =0 : no ADEXCH ; =1 : do ADEXCH ; =2 : apply ADEXCH on a local copy.
1327      - implement new method (copy+adexch) for snap-shot and monitor of main model
1328        ad-vars (initially not used by default -> output unchanged).
1329      - change default (set to 2) to use new method and update few output_adm.txt
1330        with accurate ad-monitor (global_ocean.90x40x15, tutorial_global_oce_biogeo
1331        and both tutorial_tracer_adjsens tests).
1332      - switch 2 global_ocean.cs32x15 AD-tests to AB-2 (seaice_dynmix & thsice)
1333        and turn off momDissip_In_AB in the 2 other (needed for stable AB-3).
1334    o pkg/ctrl:
1335      enable the use of a variable number (maxCtrlArr2D, maxCtrlArr3D) of
1336      generic control variables via
1337      #define ALLOW_GENARR2D_CONTROL and/or #define ALLOW_GENARR3D_CONTROL
1338      Only required customization should be S/R ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F
1339      (routine in repository contains example)
1340    o pkg/exf:
1341      - fix and refine checking of surface-relaxation setting when using EXF
1342    o verification (adjoint exp):
1343      - reduce length of simulation by half for experiment global_ocean.cs32x15
1344        (std, seaice & seaice_dynmix) and exp tutorial_dic_adjoffline; update output.
1345    o pkg/mom_common (mom_u/v_bottomdrag), pkg/shelfice (shelfice_u/v_drag)
1346      - replace if statements KE.ne.0 with KE.gt.0 to avoid sqrt of negative numbers
1347        of KE that can occur with aggressive optimization
1348      + put quadratic bottom drag calculation in separated loops (only done if
1349        using bottomDragQuadratic)
1350    o model/src: CG2D_NSA
1351      - clean-up:  stop if cg2dNormaliseRHS=T and AUTODIFF
1352         and replace GLOBAL_SUM calls with GLOBAL_SUM_TILE.
1353      - in test-exp that uses CG2D_NSA (bottom_ctrl & tutorial_tracer_adjsens),
1354         change cg2d residual target to be expressed in Wunits (=> do not normalise
1355         RHS ; this fix global_max Pb with TAF); update output.
1356    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens:
1357       improve parameter consistency (and get rid of warnings):
1358       - use deltaTFreeSurf=deltaTtracer (better with NonLin FreeSurf);
1359       - switch Temp Adv Scheme from 81 to 80 (no limiter since theta < 0 is physical)
1360       - use staggerTimeStep (for stability) in som81; use default rotation period.
1361    o pkg/exch2:
1362      - with empty facet: fix compact-format (W2_mapIO=1) definition (was previously
1363        reset to 0 = 1 long line in X)
1364    o pkg/mdsio:
1365      - fix reading of dimensions from meta file for large-size domain
1366    o model/src:
1367      - fix saltIsActiveTr setting for IdealGas eosType (eosType is 6 character long);
1368      - to refine CS-grid check, add logical flag "hasWetCSCorners": true if using
1369        Cubed-Sphere Exch with CS-corners inside the domain;
1370        make new S/R INI_GLOBAL_DOMAIN from code in ini_linear_phisurf.F to calculate
1371        globalArea and to set hasWetCSCorners.
1372      - add warning if usingCurvilinearGrid and momAdvection in flux-form (missing
1373        metric terms); stop if hasWetCSCorners=T and momAdvection in flux-form.
1374      - re-activate the stop if useCDscheme and hasWetCSCorners=T (previously if
1375        useCDscheme and useCubedSphereExchange).
1376    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F :
1377      - compute the SEAICE_DISABLE_HEATCONSFIX term accordingly
1378        for the (.NOT.useRealFreshWaterFlux).OR.(nonlinFreeSurf.EQ.0)
1379        when the previous code was not correct.
1380      - in all cases diagnoze the boundary condition mismatch to SIaaflux
1381      - in the case of useRealFreshWaterFlux.AND.(nonlinFreeSurf.GT.0) add
1382        that term to QNET (essentially to set the melt/freeze water to 0degC).
1383        when SEAICEheatConsFix is true, so that the ocean+ice budget heat is closed.
1384    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.seaice :
1385      - add SEAICEheatConsFix in data.seaice, ensuring closed ocean+ice heat budget.
1386      - add diagnostics (commented out) for budget test using my matlab codes (gcmfaces).
1387      - update results (output.seaice.txt) accordingly.
1388    o verification/lab_sea/input/data.seaice :
1389      - remove SEAICEheatConsFix, which is now be tested
1390        in global_ocean.cs32x15. The presently coded fix
1391        is only consistent with real fresh water + nlfs.
1392      - update results (output.txt) accordingly.
1393    o pkg/salt_plume: added diagnotic for salt tendency (oceSPtnd).
1394    o AD_CONFIG.h file:
1395      - in genmake2: remove "#undef ALLOW_ECCO_OPTIMIZATION" from AD_CONFIG.h;
1396      - remove #include "AD_CONFIG.h" from all included OPTIONS files and
1397        add it explicitly in each fortran src file where it is needed.
1398        motivation: header file AD_CONFIG.h is generated/modified after "make depend"
1399        thus introducing potentially wrong dependency; therefore, better to include
1400        it only where it's really needed, and after any other included OPTIONS file
1401        (less tempting to bring conditional includes according to ALLOW_ADJOINT_RUN
1402        or ALLOW_TANGENTLINEAR_RUN).
1403    
1404    checkpoint63p (2012/07/06)
1405    o pkg/autodiff:
1406      - rename S/R INI_AUTODIFF to AUTODIFF_INIT_VARIA ;
1407      - create new header file "AUTODIFF_PARAMS.h" for pkg/autodiff parameters
1408        which are now read from new parameter file "data.autodiff" (inAdExact
1409        previously in "data", use{KPP/GMRedi/SEAICE}inAdMode previously in data.pkg)
1410      - add file "data.autodiff" in all verification/*/input_ad/ directories.
1411      - add run-time parameter to turn On/Off SEAICEuseFREEDRIFT in adjoint/forward
1412        mode (used in global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice_dynmix test exp.)
1413    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens/
1414      - add extra sub-verification which uses "SOM" advection scheme
1415        (2nd Order-Moment Advection Scheme, Prather Limiter) with
1416          #define GAD_ALLOW_TS_SOM_ADV in GAD_OPTIONS.h
1417        and in data:
1418          multiDimAdvection=.TRUE.,
1419          tempAdvScheme=81,
1420          saltAdvScheme=81,
1421    o model/src:
1422      - introduce ALLOW_BALANCE_RELAX which allow the removal
1423       of the global mean of relaxation terms by setting
1424       balanceThetaClimRelax and balanceSaltClimRelax
1425      - disable balanceEmPmR and balanceQnet in the case when useSeaice.
1426       This case is now treated appropriately in seaice_growth.F
1427    o pkg/seaice:
1428      - do balanceEmPmR and balanceQnet based on the net fluxes
1429        (SItflux) that enter the ocean+ice system rather than QNET
1430        and EMPMR. Works best in real fresh water.
1431      - SIatmFW, SIatmQnet, and SItflux computations had to be moved
1432        out of the diagnotics bloc, and stored in global arrays.
1433    
1434    checkpoint63o (2012/06/29)
1435    o vertical mixing schemes:
1436      - remove unused S/R CALC_BUOYANCY (left from branch-atmos merging)
1437      - replace computation of density (in Function STATE1, opps_calc.F) by a call
1438        to S/R FIND_RHO_SCALAR
1439      - pass sigmaR to S/R PP81_CALC, MY82_CALC (but not yet used) and to GGL90_CALC
1440        and use it for N^2 calculation in ggl90_calc.F (save 2 density computations);
1441        affects output (vermix.ggl90) at truncation level.
1442    o testreport:
1443      - change adjustment of SIZE.h for mpi+mth testing: preserve enough tiles
1444        (nSx,nSy) for the number of threads (from eedata.mth)
1445    o model/src:
1446      - remove 2nd set of calls at the top of initialise_varia.F (Adjoint part)
1447        related to Non_Lin Free-Surf or Bottom-Control (but not longer necessary).
1448    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens/
1449      - compile with ALLOW_CG2D_NSA
1450      - run with nonlinFreeSurf=3
1451      - update reference output_adm.txt
1452    o tools/genmake2:
1453      - add "-DHAVE_NETCDF" to the DEFINES list when NetCDF is available ;
1454        refine usePROFILES switching off (only when NetCDF is not available).
1455    o verification (atmospheric set-up):
1456      - change eosType='IDEALGAS' to eosType='IDEALG' to match variable declaration
1457    o pkg/profiles : refine profiles and files handling.
1458    o model/src and pkg/ecco : introduce run-time switch usePROFILES.
1459    o model/src/the_main_loop.F, forward_step.F and pkg/exf/EXF_OPTIONS.h :
1460      - changes to use model/src/the_main_loop.F rather than the ecco version
1461        in ecco type adjoint runs.
1462    o model/src:
1463      - move computation of recip of grid distance & area from INI_MASKS_ETC to INI_GRID
1464      - move setting of h0Fac[C,W,S] from INI_LINEAR_PHISURF to INI_MASKS_ETC
1465      - update_masks_etc.F: rename SMOOTH*_R4,R8 function to the corresponding type (RS,RL)
1466    o model/src:
1467      - fix S/R UPDATE_CG2D for ALLOW_DEPTH_CONTROL case (was empty before);
1468        update output of test experiment bottom_ctrl_5x5.
1469    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
1470      - implement vertical bi-harmonic diffusion (for now, only for T & S and
1471        only explicitly).
1472    o verification/bottom_ctrl_5x5/
1473      update reference output (results changed quite some time ago,
1474      not sure when; but new reference results look ok in terms of grdchk)
1475    o verification/1D_ocean_ice_column/
1476      For verification purposes, the exact adjoint rather than an approx.
1477      should be used (e.g., to comare against F.D. or TLM).
1478      removed autodiff_inadmode*_ad.F routines in code_ad/
1479      Update results/ accordingly.
1480    o pkg/cal:
1481      - change cal_getdate.F so that output date is function of input time only
1482        (less ambiguous, not mixed up with input iteration number).
1483      - fix calendarDumps for non-zero phase-lag (S/R CAL_TIME2DUMP).
1484    o pkg/diagnostics:
1485      - implement calendarDumps also for stats-diags
1486      - implement calendarDumps also for snap-shot output (negative freq)
1487      - for now, ignores calendarDumps if non-zero phase-lag.
1488    
1489    checkpoint63n (2012/06/04)
1490    o model/src:
1491      - recompute rSurfW & S to ensure consistent column thickness (needed for rStar)
1492        between Sum_k(hFac*drF) and rSurf-rLow, for now only when using pkg/shelfice;
1493      - use h0FacC, W & S to compute hFac_surfC, W & S in calc_surf_dr.F (more
1494        similar to calc_r_star.F); update results of experiment internal_wave and
1495        tutorial_global_oce_in_p (affected @ truncation level).
1496    o pkg/shelfice:
1497      - add parameterisation of advective-diffusive flux into the ice shelf
1498        according to Holland and Jenkins (1999), eq.22-33, as suggested by Jan De Ryd
1499      - simply eps3/3a computation
1500    o eesupp:
1501     - add new CPP option (DISCONNECTED_TILES) to disconnect tiles (no exchange
1502       between tiles, just fill-in edges assuming locally periodic subdomain) and
1503       add corresponding exchange subroutines (EXCH0);
1504     - new CG-solver version (_EX0) for disconnected-tiles special case.
1505    o model/src (CG-solvers):
1506     - modify Single-Reduction version (CG2D_SR) in case cg2dMaxIters is reached
1507       (similar final residual output and max-Iter number as with standard version);
1508     - allows to store and use lowest-residual solution (standard & _SR versions);
1509     - cleaning up (remove old, commented out code, LETS_MAKE_JAM ...).
1510     - by default, also compile CG2D_SR version (define ALLOW_SRCG in CPP_OPTIONS.h)
1511    o eesup/src:
1512     - global_vec_sum.F cleaning: add a BARRIER ; update comments ; remove ndef
1513       ALWAYS_USE_MPI (no longer needed after fixing usingMPI settings - March 2012)
1514    o pkg/salt_plume added to lab_sea/input_ad.noseaicedyn
1515    
1516    checkpoint63m (2012/04/27)
1517    o pkg/shelfice:
1518     - account for partical cells in surface level below ice-shelf for hydrostatic
1519       pressure calculion (set uniformFreeSurfLev to F); update isomip experiments.
1520    o ad test experiments:
1521     - update and rename to "ad_optfile.local" local AD-optfile specific to a
1522       particular adjoint verification experiment (in verification/*/code_ad/)
1523    o pkg/seaice & pkg/exf:
1524     - Part two of ECCO-CLIVAR code merges.
1525       Completes merge of seaice area relax. code.
1526       Requires unified CPP option EXF_ALLOW_SEAICE_RELAX
1527       to be set in EXF_OPTIONS.h since this pkg controls its I/O
1528       (and avoids second CPP option in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h)
1529     - change default value of costIceStart & costIceEnd to a valid date.
1530     - add snowPrecip to HSNOW in seaice_growth
1531    o pkg/ptracers:
1532     - move ptracers summary and setup check into separated S/R ; add a check for
1533       valid PTRACERS_Iter0 value (error+stop or just warning).
1534    o pkg/cal (+ pkg/ecco):
1535     - avoid calling a S/R with 2 times the same arg (FWD: unless both are only used
1536       as input; and for AD, unless both are not differentiable (e.g., k index)).
1537    o model/src:
1538     - define internal flag "uniformFreeSurfLev" (=T when free-surface level-index
1539       is everywhere k=1) to speed-up some calculations (by pass kSurf reference);
1540       temporary set to usingZCoords value (to be changed to F when using shelfice).
1541     - hydrostatic pressure: implement partial cell near the surface also for
1542       Z-coordinates (for the case where uniformFreeSurfLev=F); replace test on
1543       usingZCoords with test on uniformFreeSurfLev where needed (in NonHyd code).
1544    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_init.F:
1545     - add a formal parameter to s/r ctrl_init_rec to print
1546       xx_$(ctrl_valiable)_file for easier debugging
1547     - move call of cal_* routines into the if-block where they are really
1548       needed so that xx_$(ctrl_variable)_period can be 0 or -12 without having
1549       to specify a startdate
1550    o pkg/seaice:
1551     - update comments in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h (+ similar update of lab_sea/code and
1552       global_ocean.cs32x15/code versions).
1553     - turn on seaice Multi-category (in data.seaice, SEAICE_multDim=7) for
1554       verification experiment global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice and update results.
1555    o pkg/exf:
1556     - new S/R EXF_GETFIELD_START to return starting-time of a forcing field
1557       (according to useExfYearlyFields).
1558    o pkg/cal:
1559     - move calendar setting & summary (previously in cal_readparams.F) into new
1560       S/R CAL_INIT_FIXED to be called later in the initialisation process, once
1561       length of the simulation is set (after SET_PARMS call); This is an attempt
1562       to fix Pb when, e.g.: pkg/longstep, modifies the length of the run.
1563     - For safety: keep a record of pkg/cal parameter settings status
1564               to allow to STOP if one pkg/cal S/R is called too early.
1565     - add a stop in all basic pkg/cal subroutines if called before setting is done.
1566     - modify cal_getdate.F: stop when nothing was returned;
1567       if called with myIter=-1, simply retrun modelBaseDate (1,2 = startDate_1,_2);
1568       this allows to remove "cal.h" from seaice_read_parms.F & init_mnc_vars.F.
1569    
1570    checkpoint63l (2012/04/04)
1571    o pkg/bbl:
1572      - fix call to FIND_RHO_2D in bbl_calc_rho.F (case multi-tiles per proc);
1573        update global_with_exf output.yearly.txt file.
1574    o pkg/cal:
1575      - start to clean-up cal_set.F ; fix for the case where baseTime is non-zero.
1576      - remove 2 unsused and very short (1 line only) functions ;
1577      - remove unsused subroutines from AD-Diff list.
1578    o model/src:
1579      - start to implement clean wait to stop in initialization S/R (config_check.F,
1580         packages_check.F, ini_parms.F and pkg/obcs/obcs_check.F + pkg/mypackage)
1581    o folowing PRINT_MESSAGE changes:
1582      - remove reminder multiple print to the same file (STDOUT) when multi-threads.
1583    o pkg/bbl:
1584      - modification so it can work with z*
1585      - replace deltaT with dTtracerLev(k) for asynchronous time stepping
1586      - global_with_exf/input.yearly verification; changes output.yearly.txt
1587    o eesupp/src:
1588      - PRINT_MESSAGE: use OpenMP critical instruction (similar to PRINT_ERROR);
1589        writing to unit 0 (if unit=errorMessageUnit) extended to the case myThid=1
1590      - CHECK_THREADS: specific code if using OpenMP threading: improve checking of
1591        # of threads across processors (e.g., different env OMP_NUM_THREADS setting)
1592      - improve special preliminary call to EESET_PARMS (if eedata is read 2 times).
1593      - when using MPI, always set usingMPI=T ; set default accordingly and stop
1594        if not consistent.
1595      - ALL_PROC_DIE: add a BARRIER after MPI_FINALIZE call ; skip this when thread
1596        argument is zero (in case called within single-thread section).
1597  o pkg/fizhi:  o pkg/fizhi:
1598      clean-up turbulence cold-start switch: decided in fizhi_init_vars.F, stored      clean-up turbulence cold-start switch: decided in fizhi_init_vars.F, stored
1599      in common bloc (fizhi_coms.h) and then passed as argument up to S/R TURBIO.      in common bloc (fizhi_coms.h) and then passed as argument up to S/R TURBIO.
