7  o pkg/seaice:  o pkg/seaice:
8      move OPTIONS (formerly locally defined) to SEAICE_OPTIONS.h:
9       this includes SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY (+ SEAICE_DO_OPEN_WATER_GROWTH &
10         SEAICE_OCN_MELT_ACT_ON_AREA ) and SEAICE_SOLVE4TEMP_LEGACY.
11      Default (pkg/seaice/SEAICE_OPTIONS.h) is to define SEAICE_SOLVE4TEMP_LEGACY
12       but leave SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY undef ; For now, keep verification exp
13       unchanged (SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY defined in */code*/SEAICE_OPTIONS.h)
14    o pkg aim (2010/10/26):
15      - Introduce ALLOW_INSOLATION, moving toward a more general incoming solar radiation
16        formulation with obliquity, eccentricity, ... as run-time parameters,
17      - Introduce diagnostics for top-of-the-atmaophere incoming solar radiation and
18        upward shortwave radition at the surface (all-sky and clear-sky).
19    o pkg/obcs:
20      - writing sections with globalFiles=T does not work: switch to tiled-files
21        when writing sections for OBCS (change pkg/rw/write_rec.F accordingly).
22      - fix index bug (OB_Ie -> OB_Iw_) in obcs_apply_uvice.F
23      - apply OBCS_SEAICE_COMPUTE_UVICE to both uice and vice at all obcs
24    
25    checkpoint62m (2010/10/21)
26    o pkg/seaice: vectorize seaice_solve4temp.F
27      - move iterations loops outside of i/j-loops
28      - requires 2D arrays for TB and effConduct
29      - add 2D iceOrNot to replace HICE_ACTUAL.GT.0, as HICE_ACTUAL is
30        modified in this routine
31      - a little bit of clean up, adjusting indentation, etc.
32      - replaced a few TEN**a by exp(a*log(10.)) in new code for better
33        performance and '**TWO' by '**2' (because TWO is a float),
34        replaced ONE, ZERO
35    o eesupp/src:
36       fix flow dir for exch1_z_RX_cube, exch1_uv_RX_cube & exch1_bg_RX_cube
37    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F
38      Revision 1.89 of seaice_growth.F completes the overall october 2010 revision and
39      merging process. The merged routine has two branches, and one activates the 'evolution'
40      branch by setting SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY to undef (at the top of the routine for now).
41      In summary, here is what the '10/10 revision' did consist of
42        part 1: seaice_growth.F revisions 1.71 to 1.75
43          - Preliminary seaice_growth.F clean-up, keeping test results strictly unchanged.
44            The emphasis here was on improving readability (e.g. by trying to use meaningful
45            variable names) and modularity (e.g. by adding arrays to store heff etc. updates).
46        part 1.5:
47          - revising the lab_sea experiment to make it a more useful (i.e. stable
48            and representative of an actual model run). This was done by generating a
49            (winter) pickup to start from, switching back the main experiment dynamic
50            solver from evp to lsr, having one of the experiments use the free drift solution.
51        part 2: seaice_growth.F revisions 1.76 to 1.85
52          - Sorting out hard-coded constants that prevented heat and fresh water conservation.
53          - Sorting out the various fields units and sign (set early on and reset at the end)
54            to avoid numerous scalings/re-scalings. By v1.85 the basic unit for ice, heat and
55            fresh water stock is 'effective ice meters', and >0 implies more ice/snow.
56          - Using tendency terms arrays (d_HEFF* etc.) to alleviate remaining code locks,
57            and simplifying logical expressions to further improve readibility.
58        part 3: seaice_growth.F revisions 1.86 to 1.89
59          - Re-organize the blocks of code more logically.
60          - Merging the '_if.F' pieces that add something new.
61    o pkg/thsice:
62      - vectorize thsice_solve4temp and thsice_get_exf.
63        Problem: thsice_solve4temp has an unvectorizable statement that
64        might also be problematic for TAF
65      - thsice_get_exf: add the ALLOW_BULK_LARGEYEAGER04 CPP-flag. This
66        does not change the verifcation experiment, but will change all
67        experiments that have this flag undefined (not tested in verification);
68        a little reorganization to save a few 2D fields and recomputations
69      - 1st step of revisiting thsice adjoint (major recomp. sorted out)
70      - 2nd step:  fix some store dirs
71        o seems to work somewhat, i.e. using ifort but not g77
72        o likely cause are incomplete init. or recomputation
73        o start verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input_ad.thsice
74    o pkg/obcs: add support for exch2
75      - the position of the boundary and prescribed values are specified using
76        a global domain with exch2 facets stacked
77        - in x for N,S boundaries (like W2_mapIO=-1)
78        - in y for E,W boundaries (so E,W boundaries do not overlap)
79    o pkg/mdsio: add support for writing global sections with exch2
80        file layout is as for obcs described above:
81        - for x-z sections, facets are stacked in x (like W2_mapIO=-1)
82        - for y-z sections, facets are stacked in y
83    o pkg/thsice:
84       - change a few routines for better vectorization: thsice_albedo.F,
85         thsice_step_temp.F, and in thsice_calc_thickn.F. Results are
86         not affected, but in particular the latter routine has changed
87         dramatically (not necessarily easier to read now).
88       - re-arrange calculation in THSICE_SOLVE4TEMP: move outside of i,j loops
89       iteration loop and call to S/R THSICE_GET_BULKF & THSICE_GET_EXF.
90    o verification/lab_sea:
91      - overhaul of the forward model experiments. The main motivation
92        for this revision is that lab_sea has proven quite fragile (when
93        changing the sea-ice code, and switching platforms) to a point
94        when failures were very hard to attribute to specific code problems.
95      - the suspected reason for this fragility is noise amplification by evp so,
96        to start with, we decided to replace evp with lsr in the main experiment.
97      - the input.lsr experiment thus became obsolete and was removed.
98      - it was replaced with the input.fd experiment that uses an
99        analytical "free drift" solution as the ice velocity field.
100      - Taken together, input (lsr), input.fd (free drift) and input.hb87 (evp)
101        will hopefully allow us to discriminate problems due to dynamic solvers
102        from problems due to the thermodynamic code. input.salt_plume (lsr) allows
103        us to test additional options, along with the salt plume package.
104      - Finally a pickup was generated (at the end of a one year run) to
105        make the tests more representative of an actual model run. Previously
106        the tests starting point was a 1m thickness of ice everywhere.
107    o pkg/seaice:
108      - introducing S\R seaice_freedrift.F that compute the
109        analytical solution to an approximate ice momentum
110        equation (i.e. the simple stress/coriolis balance).
111      - define SEAICE_ALLOW_FREEDRIFT to trigger the computation
112        of the free drift velocity field, and enable its use.
113        To actually use the free drift solution as the model ice
114        velocity field set SEAICEuseFREEDRIFT to .TRUE. in data.seaice.
115    o move "useOASIS" from PARAMS.h to EEPARAMS.h and read it from "eedata"
116    
117    checkpoint62l (2010/10/04)
118    o pkg/seaice:
119      -fix the USE_ORIGINAL_SBI version (for variable freezing point);
120      -use "celsius2K" in SEAICE_VARIABLE_FREEZING_POINT and in new
121       version (with USE_ORIGINAL_SBI undef);
122    o add hooks for new packages OASIS, the package will follow
123      (hooks exclude the seaice pkg for now)
124    o pkg/autodiff: ALLOW_AUTODIFF_WHTAPEIO
125      Option to use mdsio_read_whalos.F/mdsio_write_whalos.F,
126      rather than mdsio_readvector.F/mdsio_writevector.F, within
127      adread_adwrite.F to read/write adjoint-related tapes to disk.
128    o eesupp and pkg/mdsio: ALLOW_WHIO
129      Option to write/read 2D fields to files including tiles halos.
130      The main purpose is for adjoint related "tape I/O".
131      The secondary purpose is for debugging phases.
132      A word on those rather specifically intended purposes.
133      The code was meant to be stripped down to the bare minimum.
134      Typically, there is a unique and basic mapping to the global
135      buffer (tile by tile, then proc by proc, then level by level), and
136      byteswaps and meta-files are omitted. Indeed the (*_WH*) code is not
137      meant to generate user friendly outputs of various shapes and forms.
138      Rather it is intended, for the knowledgeabale developers,
139      to be largely independent of the many mdsio options, to allow
140      outputs of tiles+halos in debugging phases and in adjoint runs,
141      and to allow some flexibility in tuning (adoint) I/O depending on each
142      file system behavior. With regard to tuning, most of the potential knobs
143      (to leave files open, to allocate the I/O indep. of usesinglecpuio,
144      to specify directories, to specify the typical size of I/O calls, etc.)
145      are not yet included, and will be added if they prove useful.
146    o pkg/seaice:
147     fix uninitialised arrays in USE_ORIGINAL_SBI version of seaice_solve4temp.F     fix uninitialised arrays in USE_ORIGINAL_SBI version of seaice_solve4temp.F
