     Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
     ==============================
 
+o verification: remove 2nd copy of input files and use script "prepare_run"
+  to make a symbolic link to the 1rst copy (reduce downloaded size by ~81.M)
+o mom_common/vecinv/fluxform: fix a few initialisation isssues
+o profiles: fix for multithreaded case
 
+o diagnostics: rename few diags:
+  s/'PRESSURE'/'RCENTER '/g
+  s/'TICE    '/'oceFreez'/g
+  s/'TAUX    '/'oceTAUX '/g
+  s/'TAUY    '/'oceTAUY '/g
+  s/'SWFLUX  '/'oceQsw  '/g
+  s/DIFx/DFxE/g
+  s/DIFy/DFyE/g
+  and add few ocean-forcing diagnostics:
+  atmPload, sIceLoad, oceQnet, oceFWflx, oceSflux, surForcT & surForcS
+o modifications to pkg/seaice/growth.F and budget.F, which change results of
+  lab_sea experiment: HSNOW was sometimes treated as effective and sometimes
+  as actual snow thickness.  It now refers everywhere to effective snow
+  thickness, meaning that for non-zero AREA, actual thickness is HEFF/AREA.
+
+checkpoint58r_post
+o modifications to pkg/seaice/growth.F, which change results of
+  lab_sea experiment: fixes pertain to melting snow over open water, to
+  masking EVAP under sea ice, and to using the correct AREA variable for
+  computations of EVAP, PRECIP, HSNOW, and GHEFF
+o add ability to read bathy, salt, and theta using MNC (off by def)
+o add flooding algorithm and advection of HSNOW for pkg/seaice;
+  both are turned off by default and do no change any results
+o seaice advection with pkg/thsice: a step toward the use of non-linear 
+  advection scheme, but #ifdef or commented out for now (requires more EXCH).
+o use standard version of PTRACERS_INI_VARIA in tutorial_tracer_adjsens
+  (identical results) and the standard version of EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD
+  in natl_box (affects results @ truncation level: update output.txt)
+o multi-threading and IO:
+  - replace some call to MDSIO S/R by the corresponding READ/WRITE_FLD S/R.
+  - remove most of BEGIN_MASTER/ END_MASTER around READ/WRITE_FLD S/R calls
+    (needed to work with SingleCpuIO): tested in all verif. exp.
+o GAD: use simpler DST3 formulation as default (old version left within #ifdef)
+  affects the results (but none of the verification test uses this scheme).
+o Adding some pkg/diagnostics capability to pkg/seaice
+  (will certainly be subject to changes)
+o ctrl: adding new control variables:
+  lwflux, lwdown, evap, snowprecip, apressure, runoff
+
+checkpoint58q_post
+o added CPP_EEOPTIONS.h flag DISABLE_MPI_READY_TO_RECEIVE.  Speeds up
+  1/6-deg Southern Ocean configuration by 8% on IBM Datastar and
+  high_res_cube configuration by 4% on Columbia.
+o clean-up multi-threaded problems (reported by debugger tcheck on ACES);
+  add (in global_with_exf/code) a version of EXF_INTERP_READ without
+  dynamical allocation (seems to work in multi-threaded).
+o new function "MASTER_CPU_IO" (=T if master thread & master CPU, if using
+  single CPU io) so that TAF does not have to see EESUPPORT.h
 o pkg/seaice: implement sea-ice loading (when using RealFreshWaterFlux)
