7    checkpoint62m (2010/10/21)
8    o pkg/seaice: vectorize seaice_solve4temp.F
9      - move iterations loops outside of i/j-loops
10      - requires 2D arrays for TB and effConduct
11      - add 2D iceOrNot to replace HICE_ACTUAL.GT.0, as HICE_ACTUAL is
12        modified in this routine
13      - a little bit of clean up, adjusting indentation, etc.
14      - replaced a few TEN**a by exp(a*log(10.)) in new code for better
15        performance and '**TWO' by '**2' (because TWO is a float),
16        replaced ONE, ZERO
17    o eesupp/src:
18       fix flow dir for exch1_z_RX_cube, exch1_uv_RX_cube & exch1_bg_RX_cube
19    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F
20      Revision 1.89 of seaice_growth.F completes the overall october 2010 revision and
21      merging process. The merged routine has two branches, and one activates the 'evolution'
22      branch by setting SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY to undef (at the top of the routine for now).
23      In summary, here is what the '10/10 revision' did consist of
24        part 1: seaice_growth.F revisions 1.71 to 1.75
25          - Preliminary seaice_growth.F clean-up, keeping test results strictly unchanged.
26            The emphasis here was on improving readability (e.g. by trying to use meaningful
27            variable names) and modularity (e.g. by adding arrays to store heff etc. updates).
28        part 1.5:
29          - revising the lab_sea experiment to make it a more useful (i.e. stable
30            and representative of an actual model run). This was done by generating a
31            (winter) pickup to start from, switching back the main experiment dynamic
32            solver from evp to lsr, having one of the experiments use the free drift solution.
33        part 2: seaice_growth.F revisions 1.76 to 1.85
34          - Sorting out hard-coded constants that prevented heat and fresh water conservation.
35          - Sorting out the various fields units and sign (set early on and reset at the end)
36            to avoid numerous scalings/re-scalings. By v1.85 the basic unit for ice, heat and
37            fresh water stock is 'effective ice meters', and >0 implies more ice/snow.
38          - Using tendency terms arrays (d_HEFF* etc.) to alleviate remaining code locks,
39            and simplifying logical expressions to further improve readibility.
40        part 3: seaice_growth.F revisions 1.86 to 1.89
41          - Re-organize the blocks of code more logically.
42          - Merging the '_if.F' pieces that add something new.
43    o pkg/thsice:
44      - vectorize thsice_solve4temp and thsice_get_exf.
45        Problem: thsice_solve4temp has an unvectorizable statement that
46        might also be problematic for TAF
47      - thsice_get_exf: add the ALLOW_BULK_LARGEYEAGER04 CPP-flag. This
48        does not change the verifcation experiment, but will change all
49        experiments that have this flag undefined (not tested in verification);
50        a little reorganization to save a few 2D fields and recomputations
51      - 1st step of revisiting thsice adjoint (major recomp. sorted out)
52      - 2nd step:  fix some store dirs
53        o seems to work somewhat, i.e. using ifort but not g77
54        o likely cause are incomplete init. or recomputation
55        o start verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input_ad.thsice
56    o pkg/obcs: add support for exch2
57      - the position of the boundary and prescribed values are specified using
58        a global domain with exch2 facets stacked
59        - in x for N,S boundaries (like W2_mapIO=-1)
60        - in y for E,W boundaries (so E,W boundaries do not overlap)
61    o pkg/mdsio: add support for writing global sections with exch2
62        file layout is as for obcs described above:
63        - for x-z sections, facets are stacked in x (like W2_mapIO=-1)
64        - for y-z sections, facets are stacked in y
65    o pkg/thsice:
66       - change a few routines for better vectorization: thsice_albedo.F,
67         thsice_step_temp.F, and in thsice_calc_thickn.F. Results are
68         not affected, but in particular the latter routine has changed
69         dramatically (not necessarily easier to read now).
70       - re-arrange calculation in THSICE_SOLVE4TEMP: move outside of i,j loops
71       iteration loop and call to S/R THSICE_GET_BULKF & THSICE_GET_EXF.
72    o verification/lab_sea:
73      - overhaul of the forward model experiments. The main motivation
74        for this revision is that lab_sea has proven quite fragile (when
75        changing the sea-ice code, and switching platforms) to a point
76        when failures were very hard to attribute to specific code problems.
77      - the suspected reason for this fragility is noise amplification by evp so,
78        to start with, we decided to replace evp with lsr in the main experiment.
79      - the input.lsr experiment thus became obsolete and was removed.
80      - it was replaced with the input.fd experiment that uses an
81        analytical "free drift" solution as the ice velocity field.
82      - Taken together, input (lsr), input.fd (free drift) and input.hb87 (evp)
83        will hopefully allow us to discriminate problems due to dynamic solvers
84        from problems due to the thermodynamic code. input.salt_plume (lsr) allows
85        us to test additional options, along with the salt plume package.
86      - Finally a pickup was generated (at the end of a one year run) to
87        make the tests more representative of an actual model run. Previously
88        the tests starting point was a 1m thickness of ice everywhere.
89    o pkg/seaice:
90      - introducing S\R seaice_freedrift.F that compute the
91        analytical solution to an approximate ice momentum
92        equation (i.e. the simple stress/coriolis balance).
93      - define SEAICE_ALLOW_FREEDRIFT to trigger the computation
94        of the free drift velocity field, and enable its use.
95        To actually use the free drift solution as the model ice
96        velocity field set SEAICEuseFREEDRIFT to .TRUE. in data.seaice.
97    o move "useOASIS" from PARAMS.h to EEPARAMS.h and read it from "eedata"
98    
99    checkpoint62l (2010/10/04)
100    o pkg/seaice:
101      -fix the USE_ORIGINAL_SBI version (for variable freezing point);
102      -use "celsius2K" in SEAICE_VARIABLE_FREEZING_POINT and in new
103       version (with USE_ORIGINAL_SBI undef);
104    o add hooks for new packages OASIS, the package will follow
105      (hooks exclude the seaice pkg for now)
106    o pkg/autodiff: ALLOW_AUTODIFF_WHTAPEIO
107      Option to use mdsio_read_whalos.F/mdsio_write_whalos.F,
108      rather than mdsio_readvector.F/mdsio_writevector.F, within
109      adread_adwrite.F to read/write adjoint-related tapes to disk.
110    o eesupp and pkg/mdsio: ALLOW_WHIO
111      Option to write/read 2D fields to files including tiles halos.
112      The main purpose is for adjoint related "tape I/O".
113      The secondary purpose is for debugging phases.
114      A word on those rather specifically intended purposes.
115      The code was meant to be stripped down to the bare minimum.
116      Typically, there is a unique and basic mapping to the global
117      buffer (tile by tile, then proc by proc, then level by level), and
118      byteswaps and meta-files are omitted. Indeed the (*_WH*) code is not
119      meant to generate user friendly outputs of various shapes and forms.
120      Rather it is intended, for the knowledgeabale developers,
121      to be largely independent of the many mdsio options, to allow
122      outputs of tiles+halos in debugging phases and in adjoint runs,
123      and to allow some flexibility in tuning (adoint) I/O depending on each
124      file system behavior. With regard to tuning, most of the potential knobs
125      (to leave files open, to allocate the I/O indep. of usesinglecpuio,
126      to specify directories, to specify the typical size of I/O calls, etc.)
127      are not yet included, and will be added if they prove useful.
128    o pkg/seaice:
129       fix uninitialised arrays in USE_ORIGINAL_SBI version of seaice_solve4temp.F
130    o pkg/seaice:
131       new S/R seaice_solve4temp.F: this is the merged version of Ian Fenty
132       code (seaice_budget_ice_if.F) which enable to recover old standard
133       code (seaice_budget_ice.F) when option USE_ORIGINAL_SBI is defined.
134       temporary: add "#define USE_ORIGINAL_SBI" at the top of seaice_solve4temp.F.
135    o model/src (rStar):
136       use simple average (not area weighted) of rStarFac at U,V point when using
137       vectorInvariant and selectKEscheme=1,3 (consistent with mom. vertical advection)
138       update output of exp. fizhi-cs-32x32x40 and fizhi-cs-aqualev20.
139    
140    checkpoint62k (2010/09/17)
141    o adjoint
142       * changed verification/global_ocean.cs32x15 ; adjoint now tests
143         Adams-Bashforth 3 + NLFS + RSTAR
144       * some more modifs required for ECCO-GODAE v4
145    o pkg/seaice
146       add SEAICE_AGE_VOL option to use volume instead of area for
147       integrating SEAICE_AGE
148    o model/src:
149       first check-in of sigma & hybrid-sigma coordinate code ; also includes
150       non-linear free-surface parts ; but pressure-gradient not yet coded.
151    o pkg/ptracers:
152       option for ptracer to convert Salt Relax into additional EmP.
153        tested in exp. global_ocean.90x40x15.dwnslp (update output)
154    
155    checkpoint62j (2010/08/25)
156    o pkg/ggl90:
157       other minor changes: remove 3-D temp array gTKE (+ add argument myIter)
158    o pkg/dic: car_flux.F, phos_flux.F
159      - reduce number of exp-calls in order to improve performance
160      - clean up a little (replace fields by their macros, etc., fix
161        typo in CPP-flag)
162    o pkg/ggl90: minor changes
163      - GGL90diffKrS was removed --> always use GGL90diffKr
164      - GGL90viscAr was removed --> replaced with GGL90viscArU, GGL90viscArV
165      - hack of mxlMaxFlag=2 --> ensure mixing between first and second level
166        (commented out for now)
167      - change in max/min operations to ensure that smoothing is ok
168      - smoothing of GGL90viscAr was moved to ggl90_calc.F (as done for GGL90diffKr)
169      - always use diffKrNrT as background profile (i.e. never use diffKr field)
170    o pkg/cfc: bug fix, AREA(i,j,1,bi,bj) -> AREA(i,j,bi,bj)
171    o pkg/dic:
172      - model/src/impldiff.F: if TARGET_NEC_SX, extend loop ranges for better
173        vectorization
174      - small bug fix in insol for the unlikely case of a cartesian grid
175      - towards vectorizing the dic package: bio_export.F, car_flux.F, phos_flux.F
176        + now vectorize, which also removes adjoint recomputations;
177        + replace integer maksp1 by _RL maskp1
178        + replace a**x by exp(x*log(a)) in phos_flux.F for speed
179    
180    checkpoint62i (2010/07/21)
181    o pkg/flt:
182      - with OBCS: stop floats which enter the OB region
183    o model/src:
184      - use tempVertAdvScheme & saltVertAdvScheme (instead of horizontal ones)
185        for implicit vertical advection.
186    o pkg/seaice:
187     - account for melting in seaice age evolution.
188     - remove double counting of seaice ridging effect on seaice age.
189    
190    checkpoint62h (2010/06/18)
191    o pkg/exch2:
192     - remove exch2_*xy_rx files: call was replaced with exch2_*3d_rx(myNz=1).
193    o tools/genmake2
194      - remove "-pdefault" option: redundant with the use of "packages.conf";
195      - remove file pkg/pkg_default : set the default as a pkg group
196        ("default_pkg_list") defined in pkg/pkg_groups;
197      - fix for case pkg/pkg_depend is missing (was hanging before);
198      - add option "-pgroups" to specify a different pkg_groups than the default.
199    o verification/adjustment.cs-32x32x1:
200       add a "minimal" set-up test (code_min & input_min) which only compiles
201       eesupp/src and the 2 pkgs (exch2 & debug) which don't need model/src & inc.
202    o tools/genmake2
203      - extend pkg_depend rules to model & eesupp (e.g., if model depend on [pkg]))
204      - fix details of checking for mnc & profile pkg when NetCDF is unavailable.
205    o pkg/exf: merge exf_bulk_largeyeager04 into exf_bulkformulae because these
206      files are nearly the same anyway.
207      Step 1: make exf_bulkformulae look like exf_bulk_largeyeager04:
208       - redefinition of tau(i,i) (by a factor of ustar)
209       - 1./exf(Const/T) -> exf(-Const/T) (big change in the results)
210       - replace rhonil by rhoConstFresh in computation of evap (bug fix)
211       - replace u/vstress=tau*rd*ws*cw by tau*rd*u/vwind (changes results)
212       - replace
213         rd(i,j)= rdn(i,j)/(exf_one - rdn(i,j)/karman*psimh )
214         shn    = sh(i,j,bi,bj)*rd(i,j)/rdn(i,j)
215         by
216         shn    = sh(i,j,bi,bj)/(exf_one - rdn(i,j)/karman*psimh )
217         (changes results)
218       -> exf_bulkformulae v1.22,
219          update verification experiments lab_sea, offline_exf_seaice, seaice_obcs
220          (lab_sea: output.hb87.txt 1.11, output.lsr.txt 1.25, output.salt_plume.txt 1.13,
221                    output.txt 1.63
222           offline_exf_seaice: output.seaicetd.txt 1.7
223           seaice_obcs: output.txt 1.10)
224      Step 2: do the actual merge and remove exf_bulk_largeyeager04.F
225       -> exf_bulkformulae v1.23,
226          unfortunately requires updating lab_sea.salt_plume (6 matching digits),
227          and global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn (only 11 matching digits)
228      Also update output_adm of exp. lab_sea (all 4) and offline_exf_seaice.
229    o adjoint of exch-1:
230     - pass high-level EXCH S/R through TAF (eesupp/src/exch_ad_diff.list)
231       (note: was already like this when using EXCH-2) and remove flow dir
232       and hand-written AD version of high-level EXCH S/R (pkg/autodiff);
233     - provide flow-dir for low-level exch1 S/R (eesupp/src/exch1_ad.flow);
234     - update pkg/exch2 diff list.
235    
236    checkpoint62g (2010/05/19)
237    o eesupp/src (exch-1):
238     - split exch_rx.F into Forward S/R (exch1_rx.F) and Adjoint S/R (exch1_rx_ad.F)
239       and remove argument "simulationMode"; same thing for all exch_*rx_cube.F
240       (renamed to exch1_*rx_cube.F).
241     - change accordingly exch_*_rx.template and AD version in pkg/autodiff
242       to call new exch1 S/R ; update Makefile and .cvsignore.
243     - replace call to exch2_xy_rx S/R with exch2_*3d_rx(myNz=1) (will remove
244       exch2_xy_rx later)
245      Note: after updating your code, need to run "make clean" in eesupp/src
246  o test experiment bottom_ctrl_5x5:  o test experiment bottom_ctrl_5x5:
247     new output_adm.txt with fewer grdchk & less monitor output.     new output_adm.txt with fewer grdchk & less monitor output.
248  o model/src:  o model/src:
249    remove the call to ini_cori in initialise_varia.F (just keep the usual one    remove the call to ini_cori in initialise_varia.F (just keep the usual one
250     in initialise_fixed.F). More consistent with coriolis & horizontal grid     in initialise_fixed.F). More consistent with coriolis & horizontal grid
251     beeing treated in the same way (ini_grid is not called a 2nd time).     beeing treated in the same way (ini_grid is not called a 2nd time).
252  o pkg/exf:  o pkg/exf:
253    - rewrite exf_bulk_largeyeager04.F for better vectorization, changes    - rewrite exf_bulk_largeyeager04.F for better vectorization, changes
