4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7  o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_get_gen_rec.F: catch the case of xx_genperiod=0.  o utils/matlab:
8      - fix tile-offset in rdmnc.m when output was produced using EXCH2.
9      - update cs_grid/bk_line scripts to use load_grid.m (in utils/matlab)
10        instead of local script "load_cs.m".
11    o pkg/seaice:
12      - fix a serious bug in seaice_fgmres.F, s/r seaice_scalprod, connected
13        to the scalarProductMetric and the unrolling. By chance this does not
14        change the verification experiment, because of the particular domain
15        decomposition
16    o pkg/diagnostics:
17      - change default missing_value from UNSET_RL to -999.
18    o pkg/layers: improve vectorization of layers_fluxcalc.F
19      - step 1: split loops, make TatU/V 2D arrays. This alone reduces the cpu
20        time spent in this routine by more than a factor of 3 on an NEC-SX8
21      - step 2: replace search algorithm by a bisection algorithm found in
22        Press et al. Numerical Recipes in Fortran. This algorithm can be
23        vectorized and finds the correct bin in approx. log2(Nlayers) steps.
24        For now, use this algorithm only for TARGET_NEC_SX defined.
25      - moved the search algorithm into a separate subroutine, that is kept
26        within the same file for automatic inlining.
27      - modified catching potential errors
28    o pkg/ecco:
29      - add compile switches ALLOW_SHALLOW_ALTIMETRY and ALLOW_HIGHLAT_ALTIMETRY.
30    o model/src, pkg/autodiff, pkg/ctrl, pkg/grdchk :
31      - modifications for ALLOW_GENTIM2D_CONTROL
32      -- forward_step.F, the_main_loop.F : pass options and arrays for adjoint tapes.
33      -- load_fields_driver.F : add call to CTRL_MAP_GENTIM2D( myTime, myIter, myThid )
34      -- add xx_gentim2d0/1 in ctrl_ad_check_lev1_dir.h checkpoint_lev1_directives.h etc
35      -- use ctrl_swapffields.F (new) instead of exf_SwapFFields.F in ctrl_get_gen.F
36    o model/src:
37      - account for moist thermodynamics in (dry) potential temperature equation;
38        update results of experiments: aim.5l_cs (x2), fizhi-cs (std + aqualev)
39        and cpl_aim+ocn.
40      - also switch to standard compiler (gfortran, was using ifort previously)
41        for fizhi-cs experiments reference output.
42    o pkg/ctrl:
43      - 1st step toward generic time-varying control variable (2D) via CPP option
44        ALLOW_GENTIM2D_CONTROL
45      - note new namelist ctrl_nml_genarr in data.ctrl
46    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15:
47      - switch off OLD_THSICE_CALL_SEQUENCE (both forward and AD code) to use new
48        thsice calling sequence and update "output.icedyn.txt" output file.
49    o pkg/ptracers:
50      - from Ryan A.: code to allow to restart a tracer at regular time interval
51        specifying a reset frequency and a reset-phase (for each tracers).
52    o pkg/thsice:
53      - implement new sequence of calls for thsice+seaice:
54          previously:   ice-Dyn,ice-Advect,ice-Thermo(thsice)
55          new sequence: ice-Thermo(thsice),ice-Dyn,ice-Advect
56      - allows (with temporary CPP option "#define OLD_THSICE_CALL_SEQUENCE"
57        in CPP_OPTIONS.h) to recover old sequence;
58      - update diagnostics for Intermediate State thsice diagnostics: now filled
59        just before advection (instead of just after advection in old sequence);
60      - update output of experiment offline_exf_seaice (standard test);
61      - in global_ocean.cs32x15 exp., postpone output.icedyn.txt update
62        by setting #define OLD_THSICE_CALL_SEQUENCE in CPP_OPTIONS.h
63    o pkg/aim_v23:
64      - use tiled array for aim_CO2 and surface wind speed for export to coupler;
65      - use standard pkg/mdsio routines to read & write CO2 pickup file;
66      - in-line S/R AIM_AIM2DYN_EXCHANGES in aim_do_physics.F;
67      - Implement new sequence of calls for seaice advection (with thsice and
68        seaice diffusion): do ice advection after ice-Thermodynamic (previously
69        was done before); change aim_do_physics.F (split the bi,bj loops block);
70      - use same CPP option (OLD_THSICE_CALL_SEQUENCE) to recover old sequence;
71    o pkg/thsice:
72      - add a missing EXCH of sIceLoad in thsice_main.F (ocean set-up) for the case
73        where just seaice diffusion is used without seaice-dynamics.
74    
75    checkpoint64c (2013/01/18)
76    o pkg/seaice:
77      - add a parameter JFNKres_tFac that can replace JFNKres_t
78        (= JFNKres_tFac*JFNKresidual before JFNK solver)
79      - add a line search option to the JFNK solver
80      - move update of u/vIce and computation of initial residual into a separate
81        routine (same file); makes the code a little easier to read (?)
82      - the line search requires computation of the residual and for some reason
83        I cannot do the update of u/vIce at the beginning of the Newton loop
84        without changing the results, so we move computation of the new residual
85        also to the end of the Newton loop, even without the line search
86    o pkg/mdsio:
87      - write missing value (corresponding to undefined array value) to meta files;
88        skip this if missing value is one (UNSET_RL would be a better value for the
89        case of undefined missing value but it's current the default missing-value);
90        Also update mdsio_read_meta.F (reading timeInterval & missing-value).
91    o pkg/exf & thsice:
92      - for diagnostics purpose, fill-up and update Qsw array (+ fill the
93        diagnostics) even when SHORTWAVE_HEATING is #undef;
94    o verification/cfc_example:
95      - turn on pkg/layers with pkg/diagnostics (to test pkg/layers and to
96        illustrate how to use it).
97    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
98      in input: add SEAICErestoreUnderIce=.TRUE., and reduce size of forcing
99        files to only one time-record.
100      in input.thermo: narrow the 2 bands of low initial ice-concentration near
101        N & S edges; switch on SEAICErestoreUnderIce=T; use pkg/diagnostics for
102        snapshot output; same mcPheePiston value as in thsice with
103        surf-current=0.2m/s.
104      in input.thsice: similar set-up as in input.thermo (channel with same seaice
105        initial conditions).
106    o verification/cfc_example:
107      - update file "data" with more standard choice (default rotationPeriod,
108        exactConserv=T, reduce ivdc_kappa to 10, remove multiDimAdvection=F,
109        set deltaTFreeSurf to deltaTtracer) and update the output.
110    o pkg/layers:
111      - fix bolus part so that it compiles with #undef GM_BOLUS_ADVEC;
112      - ensure that "layers_bolus" is switched to False when useGMRedi=False.
113    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
114      - set all {field}period to zero for constant-in-time forcing (not tested
115        anywhere else).
116    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
117      - dyn_lsr  : use pkg/seaice S/R (instead of pkg/thsice) to advect sea-ice;
118      - dyn_jfnk : use pkg/thsice S/R (instead of pkg/seaice) to advect sea-ice.
119    o model/src:
120      - implement Finite-Volume method for (hydrostatic) presure gradient
121        from S.-J. Lin (QJRMS 1997), for atmosphere using sigma-coordinate.
122    o pkg/seaice: implement EVP* by Lemieux et al. (2012).
123      - In order to be compatible with the default EVP code, this requires changing
124        the EVP code around a little; and because any small change immediately
125        breaks the lab_sea.hb87 verification experiment, the reference output is
126        updated two times (each time the remaining aggrement was only 2 digits):
127        - after replacing 1/dt by 1*recip_dt with a precomputed recip_dt
128        - after replacing 1/(1+0.5*dt/tau) by a/(a+1), with a=2*tau/dt
129        The adjoint test lab_sea.evp also needed to be updated.
130      - Turn on EVP* by setting SEAICE_deltaTevp as before, and setting
131        SEAICEuseEVPstar=.true.; for EVP* SEAICE_deltaTevp does not need to be
132        a factor of SEAICE_deltaTdyn, and you can set the number of EVP steps
133        explicitly with SEAICEnEVPstarSteps (thereby overriding the default of
134        INT(SEAICE_deltaTdyn/SEAICE_deltaTevp)). Controlling EVP* is deliberately
135        kept obscure, because I need to test it a little more.
136    o pkg/cheapaml:
137      - fix few incorrect type (_RL/_RS) in subroutine calls.
138    o pkg/seaice:
139      - new S/R SEAICE_MAP_RS2VEC (similar to SEAICE_MAP2VEC) to map _RS arrays
140        to _RL vector; this fixes JFNK code when compiling with "-use_r4" option.
141    o model/src:
142      - add a warning if using select_rStar=2 with nonlinFreeSurf <> 4;
143        change (in input_ad*/data) select_rStar from 2 to 1 for AD verification
144        experiments global_ocean.cs32x15 & tutorial_tracer_adjsens (+ update output)
145    o pkg/cheapaml:
146      - replace "273.1 _d 0" by celsius2K in pkg/cheapaml/cheapaml.F and
147        update output of experiment cheapAML_box.
148      - store in CHEAPAML.h coeffs ssq[0:2] for saturation specific humidity,
149        and set them only in one place (cheapaml_readparms.F).
150      - replace "273.16 _d 0" by celsius2K & replace "3.14159 _d 0" by constant "PI"
151      - remove re-setting of main-model parameter "celsius2K" (in cheapaml_readparms)
152        and re-setting of cheapAML params "lath" & "p0" (in cheapaml_init_varia).
153    o model/src/the_main_loop.F:
154      - fix revision 129 : need both ALLOW_ECCO and ALLOW_ECCO_EVOLUTION.
155    o pkg/seaice:
156      - remove legacy branch code.
157      - retire SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY and SEAICE_CAP_HEFF accordingly.
158    o verification/*/code*/SEAICE_OPTIONS.h:
159      - remove documentation for retired CPP flags (SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY,
160        SEAICE_CAP_HEFF).
161    o pkg/cheapaml:
162      - use standard routine (S/R GET_PERIODIC_INTERVAL) to decide when it is time
163        to load new forcing fields.
164      - add missing "_d 0" where it's needed; + some editing (improve indentation).
165      - remove switch to "-r8" compiler option (no longer needed) in verification
166        cheapAML_box, keep same output (small trucation error differences).
167    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
168      - add thermodynamics only test.
169    o verification/cheapAML_box:
170      - split the domain in 8 (2x4) tiles; add MPI and multi-threaded test;
171        keep same output (same 14 digits for cg2d).
172      - switch on "-r8" compiler option (some numerical values are missing
173        the "_d 0") and update output (only 6 digits for cg2d were preserved).
174    
175    checkpoint64b (2012/12/24)
176    o pkg/cheapaml:
177      - remove un-used variables (Qnet,EmPmR) from pickup files.
178      - store tendency of advected variables into cheapaml pickup file
179        and fix the AB-2 restart.
180    o verification/offline_exf_seaice and lab_sea adjoint:
181      - switch to new code (#undef SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY).
182      - switch to 4 time steps in offline, consistent with lab_sea.
183      - match parameters from SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY branch in data.seaice.
184      - update results after change of experiment seaice.
185    o pkg/seaice:
186      - remove option SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY; has been replaced with run-time
187        parameter SEAICE_multDim. Issue a warning if SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY is
188        still defined since SEAICE_multDim needs to be set to MULTDIM value (from
189        SEAICE_SIZE.h) to recover previous #define SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY default.
190    o model/src:
191      - add run-time parameter to select CG2D solver minimum-residual solution
192        (in case of a poor convergence).
193    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F
194      - move calculation of matrix coefficients into new
195        S/R SEAICE_CALC_LSR_COEFFS; for now this routine remains in the same
196        file; the main purpose of this change is to be able to reuse the code
197        in S/R SEAICE_PRECONDITIONER
198      - modify the computation of the residual so that the mass of sea-ice
199        is not used twice; this simplifies the calculations, but since
200        the residual is never used except when LSR_mixIniGuess.ge.4---and this is
201        not tested in testreport---this does not affect the testreport results.
202    o verification/seaice_obcs:
203      - disable SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY; reset input files to match those of
204        verification/lab_sea/input.salt_plume; changes results/output.txt*
205    o model/src:
206      - adapt quasi-hydrostatic formulation to work with p or p* coordinate.
207    o pkg/seaice:
208      - improve description of parameters in seaice_fgmres.F and start
209        cleaning up the code
210      - change name of SCALPROD to SEAICE_SCALPROD and modify meaning of
211        second argument
212      - add a metric based on grid cell area to SEAICE_SCALPROD; update
213        results of offline_exf_seaice.dyn_jfnk
214      - compute initial residual norm in seaice_jfnk based on SEAICE_SCALPROD
215    o pkg/aim_v23:
216      - fix an other bug in dissipation heating (grid-cell area was missing).
217    o model/src + pkg/seaice:
218      - add global (multi-tile) linear solver for pair of tri-diagonal system
219        along X and Y lines, respectively for U and V component.
220        Note: 1) MPI and cube-exchange not yet coded.
221            2) probably not accurate for poorly conditioned / large size problem.
222      - add option for SEAICE_LSR to use global (multi-tile) tri-diagonal solver;
223        default: not compiled and not used.
224    o pkg/seaice:
225      - first attempt at a multi-threaded fgmres solver for the JFNK solver:
226        introduce bi/bj loops and use global_sum_tile_rl instead of
227        mpi_allreduce in seaice_fgmres.F
228      - improve diagnostics output for fgmres solver (seaice_fgmres.F)
229      - replace a few unnecessary goto statements by if-blocks  (seaice_fgmres.F)
230      - add a verification experiment for JFNK in offline_exf_seaice
231    o verification:
232      - change (for now, only fwd test) offline_exf_seaice experiment:
233        use a re-entrant channel with idealized coastline (trapezoidal shape)
234        at southern boundary to explore seaice dynamics and thermodynamics
235        with simple forcing. Main set-up has dynamics+thermo and SST relaxation;
236        secondary test (input.thsice) use thermodynamics only with SST relaxation.
237      - add seaice-dynamics only secondary test using LSR and pkg/thsice advection.
238    o pkg/exf:
239      - disable "sstExtrapol" when Nr=1
240    o verification:
241      - add new experiment "cheapAML_box" (simple 1 layer set-up from Bruno Deremble)
242        to test pkg/cheapaml.
243    o pkg/aim_v23 & pkg/shap_filt:
244      - fix dissipation heating (erroneous gravity multiplication factor).
245    o pkg/seaice:
246      - remove unused field pressPre from jfnk solver
247      - rename two subroutines in seaice_preconditioner.F
248    o eesupp/src:
249       - S/R MDSFINDUNIT avoids reserved unit numbers (scrUnit1, eeDataUnit ...)
250    o pkg/seaice/seaice_preconditioner.F: fix preconditioner once again
251       - remove wrong parts of the rhs and the lhs (were in there
252         because I did not understand the concept of this preconditioner)
253       - add an exchange between u- and v-sweep. This increases communication
254         by a factor of two but improves the convergence of jfnk. Ideally,
255         one would like the u- and v-sweep to be independent. So far within
256         undocumented ifdefs
257       - reorganize the extra computations for printing the residuals
258    o tools/genmake2:
259      - comment out the "mpif.h" include in NetCDF test programm (for MPI built)
260        since it's not necessary (and was preventing to use MNC in some cases).
261    
262    checkpoint64a (2012/11/16)
263    o pkg/autodiff:
264      - improve pkg-internal logical parameter switch (inAd/inFwd mode) so that
265        autodiff_readparms.F no longer depends on calling order (within
266        packages_readparms.F) and no longer requires to include ${PKG}_PARMS.h):
267        rename param turnFreeDriftInAdMode to SEAICEuseFREEDRIFTswitchInAd
268        and change param SEAICEuseDYNAMICSinAdMode to SEAICEuseDYNAMICSswitchInAd.
269    o pkg/obcs:
270      - adding tidal velocity forcing capability to obcs
271        for usage example, see verification/seaice_obcs/input.tides
272    o pkg/seaice:
273      - turn the LSR-relaxation parameters WFAU/V into runtime parameters
274        SEAICE_LSRrelaxU/V
275      - introduce runtime parameter SEAICEetaZmethod (=0 by default)
276    o pkg/aim_v23:
277      - implement heating from friction (bottom friction and stratospheric drag).
278    o pkg/shap_filt:
279      - fix diagnostic "SHAP_dKE" (was 2 time smaller); implement heating from
280        dissipation but only for Shap_funct=2, active when addFrictionHeating=T.
281    o model/src:
282      - move AddMass common block from DYNVARS.h to FFIELDS.h; allow to read-in
283        time-constant addMass field from file (addMassFile);
284      - support for heating due to friction (and Kinetic Energy dissipation):
285        add option, run-time switch and 3-D field array + support code ; each pkg
286        or S/R can add heating contribution (if there is a sink of KE); the sum is
287        accounted for as a Temperature tendency term (EXTERNAL_FORCING_T).
288    o pkg/seaice:
289      - complete merge of ITD code into seaice_growth.F
290        from MITgcm_contrib/torge/itd/code/
291        no verification so far, but Torge Martin tested
292        "1-D test case and Beaufort set up;
293        deliver okay results after 1 model year."
294      - complete merge of SEAICE_SIZE.h into all relevant routines
295      - move computation of eta at Z-points into calc_viscosities
296        + introduce global field etaZ
297        + add different methods for computing etaZ, for now the old
298          method (simple averages of eta to Z-points) is hardwired
299        + replace etaMeanZ by etaZ in seaice_lsr, seaice_calc_residual,
300          seaice_preconditioner
301      - simplify computations for SEAICE_ZETA_SMOOTHREG
302      - seaice_preconditioner:
303        + replace one remaining press by pressLoc (mistake)
304        + adjust printing of residuals
305      - improve I/O of diagnostics of JFNK in seaice_jfnk.F:
306        + add (SEAICE.h) and rename some counters (initiliased in
307          seaice_init_fixed.F)
308        + add _BEGIN/END_MASTER (myThid)  around print statements
309        + print total number of iterations and failures over SEAICE_monFreq
310          interval to STDOUT
311      - move control over output-messages by fgmres to seaice_jfnk to save
312        some operations
313      - move resetting initial guess for fgmres outside of seaice_fgmres_driver
314        in order to make restarts with sol .ne. zero (fgmres with restarts)
315        (seaice_jfnk.F, seaice_fgmres.F)
316      - seaice_calc_l/rhs.F: replace maskW/S by maskInW/S; this fixes
317        a serious convergence problem when open boundaries are involved
318    o pkg/ggl90: fix computation of control volumes for the case of
319      ALLOW_GGL90_HORIZDIFF (probably not used very often): move control volumes
320      up half a grid cell from C-centered to W-centered (pointed out by C. Eden)
321    o pkg/seaice: simplify seaice_evp by avoiding use of extra fields u/vIceC
322    o pkg/autodiff
323      - Add inAdMode switch for SEAICEuseDYNAMICS:
324        SEAICEuseDYNAMICSinAdMode
325        (extend logic in ADAUTODIFF_INADMODE_SET)
326    o pkg/seaice
327      - Step 1 of merging ice-thickness distribution (ITD) code from
328        MITgcm_contrib/torge/itd/ (author: Torge Martin)
329        The code implements concept laid out in Thorndike et al. (1975);
330        code is enabled via CPP flag SEAICE_ITD
331        nITD (in SEAICE_SIZE.h) defines number of ice thickness categories;
332        code is not complete yet!!
333      - SEAICE_SIZE.h now included in almost all seaice routines
334    o verification (using seaice):
335      - switch back seaice-dynamics (+ lower SOLV_MAX_ITERS) in ADM exp.
336        global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice ; update results.
337      - compile B-grid dynamics in FW test exp 1D_ocean_ice_column ;
338      - compile C-grid dynamics with #define SEAICE_ALLOW_JFNK in FW test exp
339        offline_exf_seaice (previously compiling B-grid).
340    o pkg/exf:
341      - fix some STOP conditions in exf_check.F (from Aug 28, modifs did not allow
342        to specify neither just 1 comp of wind or wind-stress, nor no surface momentum
343        forcing): just replace CPP option ALLOW_ATM_WIND with run-time param useAtmWind.
344    o pkg/layers (adjust changes from Sept 19):
345      - do snap-shot output and fill diagnostics from inside iLa loop (layers_calc.F)
346        this allows to remove "layers_maxNum" dimension from all layers arrays.
347    o pkg/layers (adjust changes from Sept 19):
348      - remove ALLOW_LAYERS_OUTPUT ; fix snap-shot and time-ave output ;
349      - snap-shot extended to all type of layers (not just the 1rst type);
350      - remove layers variables when corresponding CPP option is undef.
351    o pkg/layers:
352      - rename pkg/layers variable and add new output (layer exist & un-weighted
353        velocity in layer)
354    o pkg/seaice:
355      - simplify (?) ocean-drag coefficent computations by using
356        the same routine in all three solvers (saves some code lines)
357      - remove global fields DRAGA and DRAGS from C-grid code and
358        declare them locally in lsr.F (the only place where they are
359        still used)
360      - update AD output of lab_sea.evp (very sensitive anyway).
361    o pkg/seaice: add Jacobian-free Newton Krylov solver for ice dynamics
362      (Lemieux et al. 2010, 2012). Turn on with the usual SEAICE_ALLOW_JFNK
363      and SEAICEuseJFNK=.true. A few things to note:
364      - involves a FGMRES, that is parallel but very inefficient,
365        because of many scalar products (global sums) in the Gram-Schmidt
366        orthogonalization method. Needs to be replaced. Original code
367        from J.-F. Lemieux
368      - preconditioner for FGMRES is a stripped down version of LSOR
369      - SOLV_MAX_ITERS is now used for LSOR as a solver and as a
370        preconditioner. For the preconditioner, the default is set to 10.
371      - Jacobian times vector is computed with finite differences
372      - marginally related to JFNK-solver: add a smooth regularization for
373        zeta with tanh that will improve convergence (Lemieux and Tremblay,
374        2009) for any implicit solver (not implemented for EVP because EVP
375        does not need this regularization in the first place). Define
376        SEAICE_ZETA_SMOOTHREG in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h to use.
377    o eesupp/src:
378      - check in genmake2 that intrinsic S/R flush is available.
379      - add S/R to flush IO unit (if intrinsic S/R flush is available)
380      - flush standard & error msg unit before MPI termination
381      - if debugMode, flush IO unit after printing msg
382    o pkg/ctrl:
383      - ctrl_unpack.F, ALLOW_GENARR3D_CONTROL code: fix missing argument in call
384        to ctrl_set_unpack_xyz.
385    
386    checkpoint64 (2012/10/09)
387    o pkg/shelfice
388      - in mom_fluxform.F, mom_vecinv.F:
389        CALL SHELFICE_V_DRAG(bi,bj,k,vFld,KE,KappaRU,vF,myThid)
390        Bug fix KappaRU -> KappaRV
391        does not change verification/isomip but may change other setups
392        (presumably constant KappaRU=KappaRV)
393      - fix diagnostics SHIU/Vdrag (thanks to Tom Millgate)
394    o pkg/obcs:
395      - fixed some indexing bugs in obcs_seaice_sponge.F
396      - added obcs relaxation subroutines for HSALT and HSNOW
397      - changes verification/seaice_obcs/results/obcs_seaice_sponge.F
398    o pkg/seaice:
399      - add "multicategory" parameterization for snow in analogy to ice,
400        default is off for now.
401    o pkg/obcs:
402      - added obcs_seaice_sponge.F for obcs relaxation of seaice variables;
403        see verification/seaice_obcs/input.seaiceSponge for example application.
404      - remove local commom bloc "OBCS_GLOBAL" in obcs_readparms.F and do all the OB
405        index setting by master-thread. This fix multi-threads Pb in previous modifs.
406    o pkg/layers :
407      - add diagnostics to pkg/layers
408      - move the meat of pkg/layers from layers_calc.F to layers_fluxcalc.F
409        (from R.Tulloch). Layers_calc.F now calls layers_fluxcalc.F accordingly.
410    o pkg/generic_advdiff/gad_implicit_r.F :
411      - fix ADVr diagnostics in case of both implicit vertical advection and diffusion.
412    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F:
413      - fix SItflux diagnostics in virtual salt flux + balanceEmpmr case.
414    o pkg/obcs:
415      - change default setting of OBCS_UVICE_OLD from defined to undef;
416      - use new parameter OB_indexNone for null index value (instead of hard-coded 0)
417        in all pkg/obcs code and in other pkgs; remove k loop in obcs_check_depths.F;
418      - pass OB_indexNone as (new) argument to S/R CTRL_MASK_SET_[X,Y]Z;
419      - change OB null index value (OB_indexNone) to -99 ; this fix the problem
420        with Southern & Western OB at a tile edge (at least in a simple set-up).
421    o pkg/obcs:
422      - change settings of OB index in case OB coincides with tile edge (shared by
423        2 tiles), so that common OB location is registered by both tiles (instead of
424        only 1). However, for Southern and Western OB, index value = 0 is not
425        recognized as valid OB index (=default null value) and needs to be fixed.
426      - modify accordingly OBCS_BALANCE_FLOW and OBCS_MONITOR (avoid double counting)
427      - new parameter "OB_indexNone" for null index value (for now, still zero)
428        to replace hard-coded null index value of zero.
429    o pkg/exch2:
430      - improve W2_USE_E2_SAFEMODE (faster) and W2_E2_DEBUG_ON:
431        always check buffer-size (but outside the loop); move checking for valid
432        index from W2_USE_E2_SAFEMODE to W2_E2_DEBUG_ON; in W2_E2_DEBUG_ON,
433        print each tile and point connection only if |W2_printMsg|>= 2 and 3.
434    o pkg/ctrl (pack & unpack):
435      - in ctrl_pack.F & ctrl_unpack.F, use the same local file-name variable
436        (locally defined) for different variables (+ remove the variable-specific
437        file name in CTRL_GENARR.h). For now, only implemented for GENARR2/3D_CONTROL
438        (to be extended to other local file names in ctrl.h).
439    o pkg/flt:
440      - add a FLT_Iter0 option (similar to PTRACERS_Iter0).
441    o pkg/mdsio:
442      - fix missing STOP in mdsio_readvec_loc.F (case ioUnit=0) when file is missing
443    o tools/genmake2:
444      - add similar dependences for target EXE_AD & EXE_FTL as we have for EXECUTABLE
445        (added by Alistair in version 1.51 for building without make depend);
446      - remove Header files list (H_SRC_FILES) from the dependence of targets
447         ad_input_code.f & ftl_input_code.f (not clear why it was added in the first
448        place in version 1.23): this save going through staf when unrelated header
449        file has been modified.
450       Note: for an intermediate target (e.g., ad_input_code.f or adtaf) without
451        "make depend" step, still need to do "make links" before "make adtaf".
452    o eesupp/src (+ few pkg src files) & genmake2:
453      - finish to remove ALWAYS_USE_MPI in source code that TAF does not see;
454      - no longer set ALWAYS_USE_MPI in Makefile (was done by genmake2).
455      - improve genmake2 checking for ALLOW_${PKG} in CPP_OPTIONS.h files (distinguish
456         upper/lower case ; account for space between "#" and undef/define)
457    o pkg/flt (with exch2):
458      - cleaning: fix so that it compiles; move remaining MPI calls out of flt_exch2.F;
459      - simplify threads synchronisation; fix (many issues) multi-threaded with MPI.
460    
461    checkpoint63s (2012/09/05)
462    o pkg/ecco:
463      - remove #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL3D brackets.
464      - add more relevant #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH ones.
465      - sort out useAtmWind, useSMOOTH, ctrlSmoothCorrel2D.
466    o pkg/ctrl:
467      - CTRL_OPTIONS.h : document CPPs related to smoothing; ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL2D/3D,
468        ALLOW_CTRL_SMOOTH, ALLOW_SMOOTH_CTRL2D, ALLOW_SMOOTH_CTRL3D.
469      - ctrl.h : document run time params doInitXX, doMainPack, doMainUnpack, doPackDiag,
470        doSinglePrecTapelev (audodiff param!), ctrlSmoothCorrel2D (new) and
471        ctrlSmoothCorrel3D (new).
472        The added ctrlSmoothCorrel2D/3D replace the old ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL2D/3D CPP.
473      - ctrl_readparms.F : initialise ctrlSmoothCorrel2D/3D and read from namelist.
474      - ctrl_init.F ctrl_pack.F ctrl_unpack.F : switch off ustress/vstress
475        controls when useAtmWind, and vice versa.
476      - ctrl_map_ini_ecco.F : UVEL0, VVEL0, edtaux, edtauy cannot be smoothed as tracers.
477      - ctrl_get_gen.F : replace #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL2D with
478          #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH, IF ctrlSmoothCorrel2D, IF useSMOOTH.
479      - ctrl_map_ini_gen.F : replace #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL3D with
480          #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH, IF ctrlSmoothCorrel3D, IF useSMOOTH.
481      - ctrl_set_pack_xy[z].F, ctrl_set_unpack_xy[z].F:
482        replace ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL2D/3D brackets with ctrlSmoothCorrel2D/3D.
483    o pkg/smooth:
484      - remove un-necessary includes.
485      - remove ALLOW_SMOOTH*D and ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL*D brakets.
486        Those CPP options were never defined, and not necessary.
487    o model/src:
488      - fix CPP brackets in ini_mixing.F (GM_background_K belongs to gmredi).
489      - standard treatment of useSMOOTH.
490    o pkg/autodiff:
491      - add LOGICAL useGGL90inAdMode, useGGL90inFwdMode, useSALT_PLUMEinAdMode,
492        useSALT_PLUMEInFwdMode allowing to switch off ggl90 and salt_plume adjoint.
493    o pkg/exch2:
494      - add "if usingMPI" where it was missing (in exch2_rx?_cube*.template)
495        + start to remove ALWAYS_USE_MPI in source code that TAF does not see.
496      - make new S/R W2_MAP_PROCS out of w2_eeboot.F to setup exch2 CommonFlag
497        and tiles to process mapping.
498      - re-arrange 3 header files (W2_EXCH2_PARAMS.h, _BUFFER.h & _TOPOLOGY.h)
499        moving /EXCH2_FILLVAL_RX/ & /W2_EXCH2_COMMFLAG/ to W2_EXCH2_TOPOLOGY.h;
500        rename "exch2_tProc" to "W2_tileProc" and move seting of e2FillValue_RX
501        from w2_eeboot.F to w2_readparms.F.
502    o eesupp/src:
503      - set exchNeedsMemsync & exchUsesBarrier according to "usingMPI" (instead of
504        ALWAYS_USE_MPI) + moved from ini_communication_patterns.F to eeset_parms.F;
505        also move setting of exchCollectStatistics from exch_init.F to eeset_parms.F
506      - in eedie.F and all_proc_die.F, always call MPI_FINALIZE when ALLOW_USE_MPI
507        is defined (remove condition on usingMPI) to match cases where MPI_INIT
508        has been called.
509      - fix bug I put in previous modif of exch_sm_3d_rx.template (not much used);
510      - change default (non-MPI) value of myPid (from 1 to 0) to match MPI settings
511        (so that on 1 proc, get same myPid independently of usingMPI)
512      - add a stop if multi-procs but usingMPI=F ; stop also if usingMPI=T and
513        useCubedSphereExchange with EXCH-1 (safer).
514      - add "if usingMPI" where it was missing (+ start to remove ALWAYS_USE_MPI).
515    o pkg/ggl90:
516      - fix bug in filling corner mask array "mskCor" (FILL_CS_CORNER_TR_RL call)
517        used in ALLOW_GGL90_SMOOTH code.
518    o pkg/flt:
519      - fix typo in FLT_WITHOUT_Y_PERIODICITY (the effect was to ignore stopping
520        floats at the Southern end of the domain).
521    o eesupp/inc:
522      - add a list of CPP-options which can be set by Makefile (DEF_IN_MAKEFILE.h);
523        but not used (and not to be used) anywhere, just for documentation.
524    o pkg/autodiff, exf, ptracers & seaice (AD & TL output):
525      - comment out the very nasty "writeBinaryPrec = writeStatePrec" line, since:
526        a) can damage previously written records in any other multi-record files.
527        b) if needed, can easily do it cleanly, by calling S/R WRITE_REC_3D_RL/S.
528    o tools/genmake2:
529      - define variable MAKE within Makefile and use it in place of 'make';
530      - update AD_CONFIG.h (if needed) before building any of the executable
531        (forward, adjoint or tangent-lin); this involves a 2nd invocation of make;
532        and add the usual #ifndef/#define AD_CONFIG_H in AD_CONFIG.h;
533      - always print usual warning comment 'this file is automatically generated'
534        from script convert_cpp_cmd2defines (+ remove this warning from genmake2).
535    o pkg/cheapaml:
536      - updated to correspond to the code used in accepted paper (Nico Wienders).
537    o pkg/exf:
538        added run time switch useAtmWind to replace ALLOW_ATM_WIND cpp switch.
539        ALLOW_ATM_WIND now just sets the useAtmWind default (see exf_readparms.F)
540        and force defines ALLOW_BULKFORMULAE (EXF_OPTIONS.h).
541    o pkg/exf, autodiff, ctrl, ecco and seaice:
542        remove ALLOW_ATM_WIND brackets, or replace them with useAtmWind ones.
543    o pkg/ctrl, ecco:
544        allow to compile both ALLOW_U/VSTRESS_CONTROL and ALLOW_U/VWIND_CONTROL.
545        Depending on useAtmWind, one is inactive, and the other is active (see
546        exf_getffields.F/exf_getsurfacefluxes.F).
547    o tools/genmake2:
548      - improve error msg when failing in 2nd test of check_for_broken_Ff
549      - fix option '-makefile' short-name (-mf according to genmake2 -help)
550      - source local config file "genmake_local" just after processing the genmake2
551        command arguments (previously done before processing arg).
552    o pkg/grdchk:
553      - add a call to TURNOFF_MODEL_IO for Tangent-Linear run (in this case, call
554        to this routine from cost_final has been dropped in g_cost_final)
555      - improve printed information (more explicit msg, no longer using "print *,"
556         fix fcpertminus printed value).
557    o model/src:
558      - move call to COST_INIT_VARIA out of packages_init_variables.F directly
559        into initialise_varia.F (just after calling PACKAGES_INIT_VARIABLES):
560        this prevents getting cost-funct reset in adinitialise_varia recomputations.
561    o pkg/dic:
562      - move initialisation of "freefe" array from from dic_biotic_forcing.F to
563        fe_chem.F: this prevents TAF from dropping this initialisation in TLM code.
564    o pkg/grdchk:
565      - grdchk_main.F : added CALL GLOBAL_SUM_INT( ierr , myThid )
566      - grdchk_getadxx.F etc. : omit I/O if ierr.EQ.0
567    o pkg/autodiff/ctrl/grdchk :
568      - attempt to sort out what works and what does not,
569        with regard to I/O, and to warn/stop accordingly.
570    o pkg/grdchk:
571      - attempt to fix grdchk in the case of useSingleCpuIO.
572      - "if ( myProcId .EQ. grdchkwhichproc .AND. ierr .EQ. 0 )"
573       statements were moved from grdchk_main.F and into
574       grdchk_getadxx.F grdchk_getxx.F grdchk_setxx.F.
575      - a global sum is applied to record numbers icvrec/layer
576       out of grdchk_loc so that they be passed to I/O routines.
577    o pkg/smooth:
578      - fix recomputation that appeared with nlfs : use smooth_recip_hFacC,
579        smooth_hFacW, smooth_hFacS (copied at init_fixed) in 3d case.
580    o verification/testreport:
581      - add option '-tlm' for Tangent-Linear test (-adm,-oad,-tlm are all exclusive);
582      - can also use compressed (gzip) reference output file;
583      - change format (in pkg/grdchk) of TLM output (+ add forward gradient)
584        to be easier to collect by testreport.
585      - update existing TLM output (half out-of-date by more than 3 yrs).
586      - report NETCDF & LAPACK settings (from genmake2) in output dir.
587      - report run-time in each individual summary (previously only for AD test);
588        for TLM test, add also TAF version.
589      - add daily TLM test on (old) aces cluster + weekly test on baudelaire.
590    
591    checkpoint63r (2012/08/15)
592    o tools/genmake2:
593      - fix Makefile for target ftlall (+ update files to clean after make ftlall)
594    o pkg/ecco/ecco_cost_final.F :
595      - fix fc print statements (to stdout and costfunction0000) so
596        that the printed value is always after the global sum.
597    o pkg/seaice/seaice_dynsolver.F :
598      - fix ice strength assymptote at SEAICE_area_max<1
599        (no change for the standard case of SEAICE_area_max=1)
600    o some cleaning:
601      - pkg source files: ensure that all *.F files from each pkg included the
602        corresponding ${PKG}_OPTIONS.h file (except stand-alone src file which
603        only includes CPP_EEOPTIONS.h); fix S/R CTRL_SMOOTH ; update AD experiment
604        code_ad/*.F src files; add new option-file in pkg/admtlm + corresponding
605        includes;
606      - model/src: add PACKAGES_CONFIG.h wherever ALLOW_AUTODIFF[_TAMC] is used.
607      - ALLOW_DIFFKR_CONTROL: add a stop in S/R CTRL_CHECK in case ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR
608        is undef; also define /DYNVARS_DIFFKR/ common block in DYNVARS.h when
609        ALLOW_DIFFKR_CONTROL is defined, to allow to compile and reach this stop.
610      - update option-file CPP_OPTIONS.h of all AD experiments:
611        * no longer include PACKAGES_CONFIG.h ;
612        * includes ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h if PACKAGES_CONFIG.h has been included ;
613        * def/undef ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR independently of ALLOW_DIFFKR_CONTROL (before
614          including ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h).
615    o pkg/cost, pkg/ctrl, pkg/ecco option-file:
616      - clean-up and split content of old pkg/ecco/ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h file into
617        separated pkg option-file (done according to old doc from ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h,
618        not necessary accurate).
619      - add a template for option-file ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h, mostly empty, in
620        pkg/autodiff, i.e., the 1rst pkg to compile for adjoint built, with lines to
621        deliberately break compilation (a remainder that it needs to be customized)
622      - in pkg/ecco, includes ECCO_OPTIONS.h instead of COST_OPTIONS.h
623      - rename COST_CPPOPTIONS.h to COST_OPTIONS.h
624      - rename CTRL_CPPOPTIONS.h to CTRL_OPTIONS.h
625    o tools/genamke2:
626      - check for lapack.
627    o pkg/cost and pkg/ecco : attempt to sort out some of the limiting intricacies.
628      - pkg/cost.cost_final.F : allow for use of pkg/ecco and pkg/cost cost functions
629        jointly. The exclusive ifdefs were removed, to add costs terms (when defined)
630        from both packages.
631      - the fc global sum in pkg/ecco/ecco_cost_final.F was removed accordingly.
632      - for objf_atl we use either the pkg/ecco or the pkg/cost term depending on CPPs.
633      - pkg/ecco and model/src : add CPP brackets around pkg/cost and pkg/ctrl includes
634        of "CTRL_SIZE.h" "ctrl.h" "ctrl_dummy.h" "optim.h" / "cost.h" accordingly.
635    o pkg/cost : add comments to explain special and/or untested setups.
636    o pkg/exf:
637      - use EXF_OPTIONS.h to set pkg/exf options except if done in ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h
638        (previously, ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC was controling this switch).
639    o verification/*/code_ad:
640      mimimal cleaning of AD experiments ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h option-file:
641      - reccord when this file is included (define ECCO_CPPOPTIONS_H)
642      - remove the most obvious obsolete features (e.g., #define ALLOW_COST not
643        allowed since Oct 2003 in any option-file except in PACKAGES_CONFIG.h)
644    o pkg/seaice :
645      - added possibility to change ice strength/PRESS0 relationship to
646        HEFF, according to the following run time parameters
647        SEAICEpresPow0 :: HEFF exponent for ice strength below SEAICEpresH0 (integer, >0)
648        SEAICEpresPow1 :: HEFF exponent for ice strength above SEAICEpresH0 (integer, >0)
649        SEAICEpresH0   :: HEFF threshold for ice strength            (m)
650    o pkg/ggl90 :
651      - added run time flag mxlSurfFlag to include the code that ensure
652        mixing between first and second level (previously included as a comment)
653    o verification/1D_ocean_ice_column/input_ad/data.autodiff :
654      - add test of newly added dumpAdByRec=T option where
655        we write all records to one file per variable.
656    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/code_ad/CPP_OPTIONS.h :
657      - switch to #define ALLOW_BALANCE_RELAX and ALLOW_BALANCE_FLUXES
658        to check that this code is ok with taf and compiles in adjoint.
659    o pkg/autodiff :
660      - added run time param dumpAdByRec : ad dump format switch.
661        If true then write all records to one file per variable.
662        Else write one file per record (remains the default).
663      - revise seaice_ad_dump.F and exf_adjoint_snapshots_ad.F accordingly.
664    o pkg/seaice:
665     - Added SEAICEuseTILT run time switch : if set to
666       false then omit the tilt term in seaice dynamics.
667     - Fix free drift calculation.
668    o pkg/shelfice:
669      When initializing SHELFICEDragQuadratic, set default to be
670      consistent with shiCdrag in case SHELFICEuseGammaFrict is used,
671      but retain option to set it independently
672      (inconsistenty spotted by Veronique Dansereau)
673    o eesupp/inc:
674      - in EEPARAMS.h, add real-type constant for some frequently used simple number
675         (0,1,2,1/2), with name explicitly referring to RS/RL type.
676    o model/src:
677      - move balancing of relaxation terms to new S/R balance_relax.F.
678    o pkg/autodiff:
679      re-write active I/O high-level (control) S/R:
680      - rename  S/R ACTIVE_READ/WRITE_RL to ACTIVE_READ/WRITE_3D_RL
681      - add 1 more argument (useCurrentDir) to replace the "_LOC" 2nd set of S/R.
682      - use standard pkg/mdsio I/O routines (MDS_READ/WRITE_SEC_XZ/YZ  and
683        MDS_READ/WRITE_FIELD); change loops to multi-threads.
684      - update and merge active_file_control_slice.flow into active_file_control.flow
685      - update the calls in lower level S/R (active_file.F, active_file_g.F and
686        active_file_ad.F) keeping the argument list and function unchanged.
687      - also update lower-level "_LOC" version (call same S/R with "useCurrentDir
688        =.TRUE.") and remove high-level (control) _loc version (not called anymore).
689      - new low-level active I/O routines, one for each type (RL/RS), for active var
690        of various (XY,XZ,YZ) shape and level number (arguments: arrShape, myNr);
691        fix ctrl_init_wet.F & ecco_cost_weights.F by calling the new S/R with the
692        right type.
693    o autodiff and RS=real*4:
694      - call the right type (_RS instead of _RL) of S/R in few output S/R (pkg/exf
695        ad-monitor and snapshots); disable arrType='RS' in mdsio_gl*.F ;
696      - change argument type of 3-D mask argument to _RS to match type in the call
697        (in seaice_cost*.F, ctrl_*_gen.F and *ctrl_bound.F); to be continued.
698    o pkg/thsice:
699      - re-anable balanceEmPmR when useSEAICE=T with useThSIce=T.
700      - option to correct ocean fresh-water flux for imbalance of Atmos+Land
701        fresh-water flux: uniform correction or proportional to local precip.
702    o pkg/ctrl:
703      - new header file CTRL_SIZE.h for parameters maxCtrlArr2D, maxCtrlArr3D
704      - redefine CPP option ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG_CONTROL to
705                            ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG_CONTROL_NONGENERIC
706      - verification/hs94.1x64x5/ tests ALLOW_GENARR{2D,3D}_CONTROL
707    
708    checkpoint63q (2012/07/30)
709    o pkg/autodiff:
710      note about monitor and snap-shot of ad-variables:
711      a) need to apply ADEXCH before monitor or output of ad-vars to include
712       overlap contributions (was done for adjDump but missing for monitor).
713      b) since ADEXCH implies adding overlap values to interior array, machine
714       truncation error is expected when adding an ADEXCH call in the middle of
715       the time-stepping (although mathematically identical).
716      modifs:
717      - fix some incorrect type (RL/RS, UV/scalar) in ADEXCH calls and ad-vars
718        declaration (adEddyPsiX,adEddyPsiY in adcommon.h).
719      - add new run-time params (dumpAdVarExch & mon_AdVarExch) to select how  to
720        apply ADEXCH before monitor or snap-shot of ad-variables:
721           =0 : no ADEXCH ; =1 : do ADEXCH ; =2 : apply ADEXCH on a local copy.
722      - implement new method (copy+adexch) for snap-shot and monitor of main model
723        ad-vars (initially not used by default -> output unchanged).
724      - change default (set to 2) to use new method and update few output_adm.txt
725        with accurate ad-monitor (global_ocean.90x40x15, tutorial_global_oce_biogeo
726        and both tutorial_tracer_adjsens tests).
727      - switch 2 global_ocean.cs32x15 AD-tests to AB-2 (seaice_dynmix & thsice)
728        and turn off momDissip_In_AB in the 2 other (needed for stable AB-3).
729    o pkg/ctrl:
730      enable the use of a variable number (maxCtrlArr2D, maxCtrlArr3D) of
731      generic control variables via
732      #define ALLOW_GENARR2D_CONTROL and/or #define ALLOW_GENARR3D_CONTROL
733      Only required customization should be S/R ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F
734      (routine in repository contains example)
735    o pkg/exf:
736      - fix and refine checking of surface-relaxation setting when using EXF
737    o verification (adjoint exp):
738      - reduce length of simulation by half for experiment global_ocean.cs32x15
739        (std, seaice & seaice_dynmix) and exp tutorial_dic_adjoffline; update output.
740    o pkg/mom_common (mom_u/v_bottomdrag), pkg/shelfice (shelfice_u/v_drag)
741      - replace if statements KE.ne.0 with KE.gt.0 to avoid sqrt of negative numbers
742        of KE that can occur with aggressive optimization
743      + put quadratic bottom drag calculation in separated loops (only done if
744        using bottomDragQuadratic)
745    o model/src: CG2D_NSA
746      - clean-up:  stop if cg2dNormaliseRHS=T and AUTODIFF
747         and replace GLOBAL_SUM calls with GLOBAL_SUM_TILE.
748      - in test-exp that uses CG2D_NSA (bottom_ctrl & tutorial_tracer_adjsens),
749         change cg2d residual target to be expressed in Wunits (=> do not normalise
750         RHS ; this fix global_max Pb with TAF); update output.
751    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens:
752       improve parameter consistency (and get rid of warnings):
753       - use deltaTFreeSurf=deltaTtracer (better with NonLin FreeSurf);
754       - switch Temp Adv Scheme from 81 to 80 (no limiter since theta < 0 is physical)
755       - use staggerTimeStep (for stability) in som81; use default rotation period.
756    o pkg/exch2:
757      - with empty facet: fix compact-format (W2_mapIO=1) definition (was previously
758        reset to 0 = 1 long line in X)
759    o pkg/mdsio:
760      - fix reading of dimensions from meta file for large-size domain
761    o model/src:
762      - fix saltIsActiveTr setting for IdealGas eosType (eosType is 6 character long);
763      - to refine CS-grid check, add logical flag "hasWetCSCorners": true if using
764        Cubed-Sphere Exch with CS-corners inside the domain;
765        make new S/R INI_GLOBAL_DOMAIN from code in ini_linear_phisurf.F to calculate
766        globalArea and to set hasWetCSCorners.
767      - add warning if usingCurvilinearGrid and momAdvection in flux-form (missing
768        metric terms); stop if hasWetCSCorners=T and momAdvection in flux-form.
769      - re-activate the stop if useCDscheme and hasWetCSCorners=T (previously if
770        useCDscheme and useCubedSphereExchange).
771    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F :
772      - compute the SEAICE_DISABLE_HEATCONSFIX term accordingly
773        for the (.NOT.useRealFreshWaterFlux).OR.(nonlinFreeSurf.EQ.0)
774        when the previous code was not correct.
775      - in all cases diagnoze the boundary condition mismatch to SIaaflux
776      - in the case of useRealFreshWaterFlux.AND.(nonlinFreeSurf.GT.0) add
777        that term to QNET (essentially to set the melt/freeze water to 0degC).
778        when SEAICEheatConsFix is true, so that the ocean+ice budget heat is closed.
779    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.seaice :
780      - add SEAICEheatConsFix in data.seaice, ensuring closed ocean+ice heat budget.
781      - add diagnostics (commented out) for budget test using my matlab codes (gcmfaces).
782      - update results (output.seaice.txt) accordingly.
783    o verification/lab_sea/input/data.seaice :
784      - remove SEAICEheatConsFix, which is now be tested
785        in global_ocean.cs32x15. The presently coded fix
786        is only consistent with real fresh water + nlfs.
787      - update results (output.txt) accordingly.
788    o pkg/salt_plume: added diagnotic for salt tendency (oceSPtnd).
789    o AD_CONFIG.h file:
790      - in genmake2: remove "#undef ALLOW_ECCO_OPTIMIZATION" from AD_CONFIG.h;
791      - remove #include "AD_CONFIG.h" from all included OPTIONS files and
792        add it explicitly in each fortran src file where it is needed.
793        motivation: header file AD_CONFIG.h is generated/modified after "make depend"
794        thus introducing potentially wrong dependency; therefore, better to include
795        it only where it's really needed, and after any other included OPTIONS file
796        (less tempting to bring conditional includes according to ALLOW_ADJOINT_RUN
797        or ALLOW_TANGENTLINEAR_RUN).
798    
799    checkpoint63p (2012/07/06)
800    o pkg/autodiff:
801      - rename S/R INI_AUTODIFF to AUTODIFF_INIT_VARIA ;
802      - create new header file "AUTODIFF_PARAMS.h" for pkg/autodiff parameters
803        which are now read from new parameter file "data.autodiff" (inAdExact
804        previously in "data", use{KPP/GMRedi/SEAICE}inAdMode previously in data.pkg)
805      - add file "data.autodiff" in all verification/*/input_ad/ directories.
806      - add run-time parameter to turn On/Off SEAICEuseFREEDRIFT in adjoint/forward
807        mode (used in global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice_dynmix test exp.)
808    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens/
809      - add extra sub-verification which uses "SOM" advection scheme
810        (2nd Order-Moment Advection Scheme, Prather Limiter) with
811          #define GAD_ALLOW_TS_SOM_ADV in GAD_OPTIONS.h
812        and in data:
813          multiDimAdvection=.TRUE.,
814          tempAdvScheme=81,
815          saltAdvScheme=81,
816    o model/src:
817      - introduce ALLOW_BALANCE_RELAX which allow the removal
818       of the global mean of relaxation terms by setting
819       balanceThetaClimRelax and balanceSaltClimRelax
820      - disable balanceEmPmR and balanceQnet in the case when useSeaice.
821       This case is now treated appropriately in seaice_growth.F
822    o pkg/seaice:
823      - do balanceEmPmR and balanceQnet based on the net fluxes
824        (SItflux) that enter the ocean+ice system rather than QNET
825        and EMPMR. Works best in real fresh water.
826      - SIatmFW, SIatmQnet, and SItflux computations had to be moved
827        out of the diagnotics bloc, and stored in global arrays.
828    
829    checkpoint63o (2012/06/29)
830    o vertical mixing schemes:
831      - remove unused S/R CALC_BUOYANCY (left from branch-atmos merging)
832      - replace computation of density (in Function STATE1, opps_calc.F) by a call
833        to S/R FIND_RHO_SCALAR
834      - pass sigmaR to S/R PP81_CALC, MY82_CALC (but not yet used) and to GGL90_CALC
835        and use it for N^2 calculation in ggl90_calc.F (save 2 density computations);
836        affects output (vermix.ggl90) at truncation level.
837    o testreport:
838      - change adjustment of SIZE.h for mpi+mth testing: preserve enough tiles
839        (nSx,nSy) for the number of threads (from eedata.mth)
840    o model/src:
841      - remove 2nd set of calls at the top of initialise_varia.F (Adjoint part)
842        related to Non_Lin Free-Surf or Bottom-Control (but not longer necessary).
843    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens/
844      - compile with ALLOW_CG2D_NSA
845      - run with nonlinFreeSurf=3
846      - update reference output_adm.txt
847    o tools/genmake2:
848      - add "-DHAVE_NETCDF" to the DEFINES list when NetCDF is available ;
849        refine usePROFILES switching off (only when NetCDF is not available).
850    o verification (atmospheric set-up):
851      - change eosType='IDEALGAS' to eosType='IDEALG' to match variable declaration
852    o pkg/profiles : refine profiles and files handling.
853    o model/src and pkg/ecco : introduce run-time switch usePROFILES.
854    o model/src/the_main_loop.F, forward_step.F and pkg/exf/EXF_OPTIONS.h :
855      - changes to use model/src/the_main_loop.F rather than the ecco version
856        in ecco type adjoint runs.
857    o model/src:
858      - move computation of recip of grid distance & area from INI_MASKS_ETC to INI_GRID
859      - move setting of h0Fac[C,W,S] from INI_LINEAR_PHISURF to INI_MASKS_ETC
860      - update_masks_etc.F: rename SMOOTH*_R4,R8 function to the corresponding type (RS,RL)
861    o model/src:
862      - fix S/R UPDATE_CG2D for ALLOW_DEPTH_CONTROL case (was empty before);
863        update output of test experiment bottom_ctrl_5x5.
864    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
865      - implement vertical bi-harmonic diffusion (for now, only for T & S and
866        only explicitly).
867    o verification/bottom_ctrl_5x5/
868      update reference output (results changed quite some time ago,
869      not sure when; but new reference results look ok in terms of grdchk)
870    o verification/1D_ocean_ice_column/
871      For verification purposes, the exact adjoint rather than an approx.
872      should be used (e.g., to comare against F.D. or TLM).
873      removed autodiff_inadmode*_ad.F routines in code_ad/
874      Update results/ accordingly.
875    o pkg/cal:
876      - change cal_getdate.F so that output date is function of input time only
877        (less ambiguous, not mixed up with input iteration number).
878      - fix calendarDumps for non-zero phase-lag (S/R CAL_TIME2DUMP).
879    o pkg/diagnostics:
880      - implement calendarDumps also for stats-diags
881      - implement calendarDumps also for snap-shot output (negative freq)
882      - for now, ignores calendarDumps if non-zero phase-lag.
883    
884    checkpoint63n (2012/06/04)
885    o model/src:
886      - recompute rSurfW & S to ensure consistent column thickness (needed for rStar)
887        between Sum_k(hFac*drF) and rSurf-rLow, for now only when using pkg/shelfice;
888      - use h0FacC, W & S to compute hFac_surfC, W & S in calc_surf_dr.F (more
889        similar to calc_r_star.F); update results of experiment internal_wave and
890        tutorial_global_oce_in_p (affected @ truncation level).
891    o pkg/shelfice:
892      - add parameterisation of advective-diffusive flux into the ice shelf
893        according to Holland and Jenkins (1999), eq.22-33, as suggested by Jan De Ryd
894      - simply eps3/3a computation
895    o eesupp:
896     - add new CPP option (DISCONNECTED_TILES) to disconnect tiles (no exchange
897       between tiles, just fill-in edges assuming locally periodic subdomain) and
898       add corresponding exchange subroutines (EXCH0);
899     - new CG-solver version (_EX0) for disconnected-tiles special case.
900    o model/src (CG-solvers):
901     - modify Single-Reduction version (CG2D_SR) in case cg2dMaxIters is reached
902       (similar final residual output and max-Iter number as with standard version);
903     - allows to store and use lowest-residual solution (standard & _SR versions);
904     - cleaning up (remove old, commented out code, LETS_MAKE_JAM ...).
905     - by default, also compile CG2D_SR version (define ALLOW_SRCG in CPP_OPTIONS.h)
906    o eesup/src:
907     - global_vec_sum.F cleaning: add a BARRIER ; update comments ; remove ndef
908       ALWAYS_USE_MPI (no longer needed after fixing usingMPI settings - March 2012)
909    o pkg/salt_plume added to lab_sea/input_ad.noseaicedyn
910    
911    checkpoint63m (2012/04/27)
912    o pkg/shelfice:
913     - account for partical cells in surface level below ice-shelf for hydrostatic
914       pressure calculion (set uniformFreeSurfLev to F); update isomip experiments.
915    o ad test experiments:
916     - update and rename to "ad_optfile.local" local AD-optfile specific to a
917       particular adjoint verification experiment (in verification/*/code_ad/)
918    o pkg/seaice & pkg/exf:
919     - Part two of ECCO-CLIVAR code merges.
920       Completes merge of seaice area relax. code.
921       Requires unified CPP option EXF_ALLOW_SEAICE_RELAX
922       to be set in EXF_OPTIONS.h since this pkg controls its I/O
923       (and avoids second CPP option in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h)
924     - change default value of costIceStart & costIceEnd to a valid date.
925     - add snowPrecip to HSNOW in seaice_growth
926    o pkg/ptracers:
927     - move ptracers summary and setup check into separated S/R ; add a check for
928       valid PTRACERS_Iter0 value (error+stop or just warning).
929    o pkg/cal (+ pkg/ecco):
930     - avoid calling a S/R with 2 times the same arg (FWD: unless both are only used
931       as input; and for AD, unless both are not differentiable (e.g., k index)).
932    o model/src:
933     - define internal flag "uniformFreeSurfLev" (=T when free-surface level-index
934       is everywhere k=1) to speed-up some calculations (by pass kSurf reference);
935       temporary set to usingZCoords value (to be changed to F when using shelfice).
936     - hydrostatic pressure: implement partial cell near the surface also for
937       Z-coordinates (for the case where uniformFreeSurfLev=F); replace test on
938       usingZCoords with test on uniformFreeSurfLev where needed (in NonHyd code).
939    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_init.F:
940     - add a formal parameter to s/r ctrl_init_rec to print
941       xx_$(ctrl_valiable)_file for easier debugging
942     - move call of cal_* routines into the if-block where they are really
943       needed so that xx_$(ctrl_variable)_period can be 0 or -12 without having
944       to specify a startdate
945    o pkg/seaice:
946     - update comments in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h (+ similar update of lab_sea/code and
947       global_ocean.cs32x15/code versions).
948     - turn on seaice Multi-category (in data.seaice, SEAICE_multDim=7) for
949       verification experiment global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice and update results.
950    o pkg/exf:
951     - new S/R EXF_GETFIELD_START to return starting-time of a forcing field
952       (according to useExfYearlyFields).
953    o pkg/cal:
954     - move calendar setting & summary (previously in cal_readparams.F) into new
955       S/R CAL_INIT_FIXED to be called later in the initialisation process, once
956       length of the simulation is set (after SET_PARMS call); This is an attempt
957       to fix Pb when, e.g.: pkg/longstep, modifies the length of the run.
958     - For safety: keep a record of pkg/cal parameter settings status
959               to allow to STOP if one pkg/cal S/R is called too early.
960     - add a stop in all basic pkg/cal subroutines if called before setting is done.
961     - modify cal_getdate.F: stop when nothing was returned;
962       if called with myIter=-1, simply retrun modelBaseDate (1,2 = startDate_1,_2);
963       this allows to remove "cal.h" from seaice_read_parms.F & init_mnc_vars.F.
964    
965    checkpoint63l (2012/04/04)
966    o pkg/bbl:
967      - fix call to FIND_RHO_2D in bbl_calc_rho.F (case multi-tiles per proc);
968        update global_with_exf output.yearly.txt file.
969    o pkg/cal:
970      - start to clean-up cal_set.F ; fix for the case where baseTime is non-zero.
971      - remove 2 unsused and very short (1 line only) functions ;
972      - remove unsused subroutines from AD-Diff list.
973    o model/src:
974      - start to implement clean wait to stop in initialization S/R (config_check.F,
975         packages_check.F, ini_parms.F and pkg/obcs/obcs_check.F + pkg/mypackage)
976    o folowing PRINT_MESSAGE changes:
977      - remove reminder multiple print to the same file (STDOUT) when multi-threads.
978    o pkg/bbl:
979      - modification so it can work with z*
980      - replace deltaT with dTtracerLev(k) for asynchronous time stepping
981      - global_with_exf/input.yearly verification; changes output.yearly.txt
982    o eesupp/src:
983      - PRINT_MESSAGE: use OpenMP critical instruction (similar to PRINT_ERROR);
984        writing to unit 0 (if unit=errorMessageUnit) extended to the case myThid=1
985      - CHECK_THREADS: specific code if using OpenMP threading: improve checking of
986        # of threads across processors (e.g., different env OMP_NUM_THREADS setting)
987      - improve special preliminary call to EESET_PARMS (if eedata is read 2 times).
988      - when using MPI, always set usingMPI=T ; set default accordingly and stop
989        if not consistent.
990      - ALL_PROC_DIE: add a BARRIER after MPI_FINALIZE call ; skip this when thread
991        argument is zero (in case called within single-thread section).
992    o pkg/fizhi:
993        clean-up turbulence cold-start switch: decided in fizhi_init_vars.F, stored
994        in common bloc (fizhi_coms.h) and then passed as argument up to S/R TURBIO.
995    o pkg/exch2:
996      - add argument "updateCorners" to S/R exch2_get_uv_bounds (enable to
997        activate EXCH_IGNORE_CORNERS in vector EXCH S/R).
998      - switch 1rst EXCH call to IGNORE_CORNERS (instead of UPDATE_CORNERS)
999        but keep the 2nd with UPDATE_CORNERS: this prevents overwriting good data
1000        with bad ones coming from a not-yet-updated halo.
1001        This should fix the problem when sNx <> sNy and GCD(sNx,sNy) < 2*Olx.
1002    o pkg/frazil:
1003        move FrzForcT diag from frazil_diagnostics_state.F to frazil_calc_rhs.F
1004        http://mitgcm.org/pipermail/mitgcm-devel/2012-March/005384.html
1005    o model/src/config_check.F: add a check for OLx>sNx/OLy>sNy
1006    o verification/lab_sea
1007      * #undef SEAICE_EXCLUDE_FOR_EXACT_AD_TESTING
1008      * #define ALLOW_SST_CONTROL & ALLOW_SST_CONTROL
1009      * nTimeSteps 3 -> 4
1010      * changed reference output accordingly
1011    o pkg/ctrl:
1012      * fix ctrl_get_gen for xx_sst, xx_sss
1013    o pkg/fizhi:
1014      - fix 2 calls to S/R GRD2MSC (argument igrd) in update_earth_exports.F
1015        update results of exp. fizhi-cs-32x32x40 (fail with only 6 digits for cg2d)
1016      - by default, use new version of S/R GETPWHERE (#define TRY_NEW_GETPWHERE);
1017        fix few out-of-bounds indices in referencing vars (initialise igrd to 1);
1018        clean-up fizhi_turb.F (remove unused & uninitialised qdiaglsm array).
1019    o pkg/gmredi:
1020      - add diagnostic of Redi (main diagnonal) vertical diffusive flux of Temp
1021    o pkg/fizhi:
1022      - fix few initialisation and multi-tile Pb: aqualev & gridalt now pass the
1023        (old)aces open64 tuv test.
1024    o pkg/icefront: fix bug and reorder loop in icefront_init_varia.F
1025    o pkg/mom_vecinv:
1026      - fix 1 loop range in mom_vecinv.F to be like all the other loops which
1027        set/update gu,gv/Diss (fix Pb of uninitialised fVerUkp in admom_vecinv
1028        with non-lin free-surf).
1029    o model/src: move k-loop outside of i/j-loops when (re-)computing R_low
1030      in ini/update_masks_etc.F in order to avoid -O3 optimization problems with
1031      some compilers (gfortran 4.6.0 on MacOS)
1032    o momentum:
1033      - separate fVer?(:,:,kUp) & fVer?(:,:,kDown) in argument list of MOM_FLUXFORM
1034        & MOM_VECINV subroutines (to help TAF). This fixes Pb of uninitialised
1035        fVer?(kUp) in admom_fluxform with non-lin free-surf or bottom control.
1036    
1037    checkpoint63k (2012/03/17)
1038    o model/src:
1039       - selectAddFluid (ALLOW_ADDFLUID): add missing term in horizontal momentum
1040         flux-form (mom_fluxform.F) and vertical momentum (calc_gw.F) equations.
1041       - SOLVE_DIAGONAL: switch default to use adjoinable & vectorized version
1042         (#undef SOLVE_DIAGONAL_LOWMEMORY); update output of exp. front_relax.bvp.
1043    o model/src: solve_*diagonal.F
1044       - replace division with multiplication by inverse (similar to original version)
1045         update output of AD exp. global_ocean.90x40x15.
1046       - fix pkg/gmredi/gmredi_calc_psi_bvp.F & pkg/ggl90/ggl90_calc.F
1047         to enable the use of the vectorized & differentiable solve_tridiagonal.F
1048       - test exp. global_ocean.90x40x15/input_ad: switch to advection scheme 20 for
1049         vertical advection (to get solve_tridiagonal tested in AD mode).
1050    o pkg/seaice: ECCO-CLIVAR merge:
1051      1. seaice AREA relaxation
1052         * CPP option: SEAICE_ALLOW_AREA_RELAXATION
1053         * runtime flag: SEAICE_tauAreaObsRelax
1054      2. modified global mean cost imbalance code: CPP option
1055          ALLOW_SSH_GLOBMEAN_COST_CONTRIBUTION
1056    o another iteration on solve_*diagonal.F
1057       Make choices independent of AUTODIFF
1058       Default will be the adjoinable vectorized version.
1059       Alternative choices are:
1060       * non-adjoinable original version with low memory footprint:
1061         #define SOLVE_DIAGONAL_LOWMEMORY
1062       * still adjoinable but does not vectorize (k as inner-most loop):
1063         #define SOLVE_DIAGONAL_KINNER (keeping SOLVE_DIAGONAL_LOWMEMORY undef)
1064    o testreport
1065     - add option to use a home made wrapper around "make"
1066     - remove MITGCM_IEEE env. variable (no longer active)
1067    o pkg/shelfice
1068     - improve computation of friction velocity for velocity dependent
1069       exchange coefficients: include velocities into SHELFICEBoundaryLayer
1070       block to average velocities vertically
1071     - add TAF store directives for SHI_ALLOW_GAMMAFRICT
1072    o Modify diagonal solvers, now three versions (upon request):
1073      #ifndef SOLVE_DIAGONAL_AUTODIFF
1074        1. default version (dating back a while ago)
1075      #else /* def SOLVE_DIAGONAL_AUTODIFF */
1076      # ifdef SOLVE_DIAGONAL_KINNER
1077        2. adjoinable version with k-innermost loop (G. Forget)
1078      # else
1079        3. adjoinable vectorized version of 2.
1080      # endif
1081      #endif /* SOLVE_DIAGONAL_AUTODIFF */
1082      All flags are currently set within routines, but could/should be moved to CPP-options.
1083      Array bounds for 1. are as before, for 2.,3. cover the entire domain
1084      (could be changed for 1. too).
1085    o verification/lab_sea (fwd):
1086      - update the 4 fwd lab_sea test experiment: no longer SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY,
1087        use 7 categories (except hb87), new solve4temp params (except salt_plume),
1088        constant salinity (=4) or variable salinity (salt_plume) done through
1089        SItracer.
1090    o pkg/seaice:
1091      - rename parameters: SIsalFrac to SEAICE_saltFrac & SIsal0 to SEAICE_salt0;
1092      - remove old parameters ( SEAICE_freeze, SEAICEturbFluxFormula, SEAICE_gamma_t,
1093         SEAICE_gamma_t_frz, SEAICE_availHeatTaper & SEAICE_availHeatFracFrz)
1094        from SEAICE_PARMS.h ; still need to fix seaice_cost_sst.F (broken when
1095        SEAICE_freeze got retired) but already better than previously with
1096        SEAICE_freeze=123456.7 deg.C;
1097      - move setting of facOpenGrow/Melt from SEAICE_INIT_FIXED to SEAICE_READPARMS
1098        (safer multi-threaded setting); always set SEAICEuseEVP;
1099      - setting of ocean-ice turb. flux coeff: moved from SEAICE_CHECK to
1100        SEAICE_READPARMS & SEAICE_INIT_FIXED (this fixes wrong summary report);
1101        stop if multiple specifications for the same coeff; make sure default
1102        SEAICE_mcPheePiston is compatible with drF(1) & deltaT.
1103    o pkg/obcs:
1104      - allow to switch to upwind 1rst order advection scheme for the advective
1105        flux computation at the open-boundary; disabled for adjoint built.
1106    o pkg/ptracers:
1107      - rename PTRACERS_RESTART.h -> PTRACERS_START.h
1108      - rename ptracers_fields_blocking_exchanges.F -> ptracers_fields_blocking_exch.F
1109      - add parameter to decide when to start a tracer; use internal flag to
1110        know which tracer to step-forward; switch this internal flag at the top
1111        of forward_step.F (new S/R PTRACERS_SWITCH_ONOFF); for now, not enabled
1112        for adjoint built.
1113    o pkg/seaice:
1114      - add SEAICE_SIZE.h anywhere in the code where SEAICE.h is included ;
1115      - move MULTDIM declaration and setting from SEAICE.h to SEAICE_SIZE.h ;
1116      - keep experiment offline_exf_seaice truly single category (set MULTDIM=1).
1117    o pkg/ecco:
1118      - fix writing of output file DiagnosCost_ClimSalt/Theta
1119        and DiagnosCost_DriftSalt/Theta (if multi-tiles per proc).
1120    o pkg/seaice:
1121      - add missing initialisation of COR_ICE array in dynsolver.F
1122      - merging SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY define and undef cases. Now the same code is
1123        compiled either way, and is tested in all exps (multidim was only tested
1124        in lab_sea ad before).
1125      - cosmetic change to prepare for future addition of ITD. no change to results.
1126        no defaults change.
1127      - added run time param SEAICE_multDim (7 for SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY, 1 otherwise).
1128      - by lack of adequate verification experiments, I further used custom versions
1129        of global_ocean.cs32x15 to test multicat or not, with pickup or not. All
1130        should be correct.
1131      - avoid recomputations in ad.
1132    o array initialisation in adjoint mode:
1133      1) pkg/mom_common/mom_calc_ke.F:
1134        add full array initialisation of KE inside mom_calc_ke.F (ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC):
1135        The S/R which calls MOM_CALC_KE initialises KE but in some recomputation
1136        part this initialisation is gone, resulting in Floating Point Exception
1137        (caught by open64 compiler with debug option).
1138      2) model/src/convective_weights.F
1139        set output convectCount over the full array range (instead of doing
1140        an update): this fix a similar issue when called within recomputation (adjoint)
1141        which could by-pass the initialisation (normally done in the caller S/R).
1142    o pkg/seaice:
1143      - final version of turbulent flux params, as agreed at MIT ice meet:
1144           SEAICE_mcPheePiston (default is ~ 0.000875)
1145           SEAICE_mcPheeTaper (default is 0.)
1146           SEAICE_frazilFrac (defualt is 1.)
1147           SEAICE_mcPheeStepFunc (default is false)
1148      - changes results at trunction error level
1149      - ifdef SEAICE_EXTERNAL_FLUXES, disallow SEAICE_waterAlbedo
1150    o added pkg/frazil:
1151      - see frazil_description.tex for details
1152      - verification experiment is global_with_exf/input.yearly; changes output.yearly.txt
1153    o pkg/shelfice/shelfice_thermodynamics.F
1154      - fix exponents for velocity dependent exchange coefficients: change
1155        from 2/3(=0) to 0.66666666666666667
1156      - move computation of velocity dependent exchange coefficients into
1157        separate loop, so that it applies to both thermodynamics
1158      - move some divisions by constants out of loops
1159    
1160    checkpoint63j (2012/02/16)
1161    o pkg/seaice:
1162      - overhaul of seaice_summary.F after feb 2012 clean-up of seaice_growth.F etc.
1163      - SItracer:  added run time params, and allow coupling to ocn salinity.
1164    o pkg/seaice: remove (almost) all divisions by constants within loops
1165      in seaice_growth.F and seaice_solve4temp.F, this changes (only) the cg2d
1166      results of global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice from 16 to 11 digits (but only
1167      those, caused by 1/QI -> recip_QI) -> update output.seaice.txt,
1168      output_adm.seaice_dynmix.txt and also lab_sea: output_adm.evp.txt
1169    o pkg/seaice :
1170      - simplify McPhee tapering, and allow to use it with SEAICEturbFluxFormula
1171        = 1 or 2, using newly added run time parameter SEAICE_availHeatTaper.
1172      - fix d_AREAbyATM, d_AREAbyOCN, d_AREAbyICE diags I broke in r1.148.
1173      - add permanent SItflux diag that corresponds to TFLUX but includes
1174        ice+snow. Hence SItflux-TFLUX should match the ice+snow heat budget.
1175      - allow activation/testing of a fix for suspected missing term in
1176        ocn-ice heat budget (to be confirmed). To test this, you want to
1177        undef SEAICE_DISABLE_HEATCONSFIX, and then set the run time param
1178        SEAICEheatConsFix to .TRUE. that also allows the 'SIaaflux' diagnostic.
1179      - no change in results, fwd or ad.
1180    o global_ocean.cs32x15/results: 3 changes following from the pkg/seaice commit below:
1181      - switch to variable freezing point.
1182           Results change : cg2d -> 1 digits; ad -> 3-6-6 digits.
1183      - bug fix : the sublimation term that was missing is now activated.
1184           Results change : cg2d -> 2 digits; ad -> 8-6-6 digits.
1185      - bug fix : flooding sign term for SIsal0.NE.0.
1186           Result change : cg2d -> 8 digits; ad -> 11-12-9 digits.
1187    o pkg/seaice:
1188      - unified freezing point treatment : the old SEAICE_VARIABLE_FREEZING_POINT
1189        is now the default, and the old default constant freezing point is recovered
1190        with SEAICE_tempFrz0    = -1.96,
1191             SEAICE_dTempFrz_dS = 0.,
1192      - retire SEAICE_freeze (= the old way of specifycing the constant freezing point)
1193      - remove ALLOW_SEAICE_FLOODING brackets; run time switch is already there.
1194      - bug fix (thanks to M. Losch) : the sublimation term that was missing is now
1195        activated. To reproduce old results with this bug define SEAICE_DISABLE_SUBLIM.
1196      - bug fix (silly me) : flooding sign term (seaice_growth.F r 1.149line 1211)
1197        was wrong for SIsal0.NE.0. Changes cs32x15 results (see above item for detail).
1198      - bug fix (thanks to O. Jahn) : area loss for melting  got messed up in
1199        seaice_growth r149 for legacy branch (no results change).
1200      - introduce SEAICE_CAP_SUBLIM : caps sublimation heat flux in solve4temp (code
1201        from I. Fenty).
1202      - results did not change except for global_ocean.cs32x15, mostly due to the
1203        switch to variable freezing point (see above item for detail).
1204    o pkg/thsice:
1205      - fix and simplify interface to salt_plume pkg ; diagnose directly amount of
1206        seawater freezing in thsice_calc_thickn (not used).
1207    o pkg/seaice: turbulent flux term specification via run time params.
1208      - replace CPP switches with run time switches to facilitate testing
1209      - retired CPPs : MCPHEE_OCEAN_ICE_HEAT_FLUX,
1210                       GRADIENT_MIXED_LAYER_TURBULENCE_FACTOR
1211      - added runtime parameter : SEAICEturbFluxFormula
1212      - move Mcphee constants to SEAICE_PARAMS.h
1213      - seaice_readparms.F : read turbulent flux term params (SEAICEturbFluxFormula;
1214                 SEAICE_availHeatFrac/Frz, or SEAICE_gamma_t/_frz if apply);
1215                 remove seaice_summary call (moved to seaice_init_fixed)
1216      - seaice_init_fixed.F : set SEAICE_availHeatFrac/Frz depending on
1217        SEAICEturbFluxFormula, and seaice_summary call (moved from seaice_readparms)
1218      - seaice_summary.F : add missing report of read turbulent flux term set up
1219                           and SITRACER.
1220      - seaice_check.F : check range; inform and stop if retired CPPs are used
1221                         (incl. SEAICE_AGE).
1222      - seaice_growth.F : unified use of SEAICE_availHeatFrac/Frz, without
1223             CPP switch, same computation as before for the different options.
1224      - change results at the truncation level.
1225    o pkg/seaice:
1226      - remove un-used parameters LAD & MAX_TICE ; add new run-time parameters:
1227        useMaykutSatVapPoly (default=F), postSolvTempIter (default=2) and
1228        SEAICE_wetAlbTemp (default=-1e-3). Remove option SEAICE_SOLVE4TEMP_LEGACY.
1229      - update verification/*/input*/data.seaice:
1230        to reproduce previous results with former #defined SEAICE_SOLVE4TEMP_LEGACY
1231        code, set useMaykutSatVapPoly=T & postSolvTempIter=0 ;
1232        and to reproduce previous results with former non-SOLVE4TEMP_LEGACY code,
1233        set SEAICE_wetAlbTemp=0 & SEAICE_snowThick=0.
1234    o pkg/seaice/seaice_solve4temp.F (SOLVE4TEMP_LEGACY):
1235      - remove LEGACY code for solving for tsurf (A1,A2,A3) but maintain the same
1236        algorithm (same choice: useMaykutPolySatVap=T, postSolvTempIter=0);
1237        difference in results only due to machine truncation.
1238      - remove MAX_TICE (tsurf is always =< TMELT anyway); keep MIN_TICE if using
1239        MaykutPolySatVap; keep MIN_LWDOWN.
1240      - adapt SEAICE_MODIFY_GROWTH_ADJ code (untested) to non-legacy formulation.
1241      - update output of verification exp. lab_sea (4 fwd: 11 cg2d digits except hb87,
1242        + 3 AD: 6 digits except evp) and offline_exf_seaice.seaice (12 digits).
1243    o pkg/salt_plume:
1244      - isolate saltPlumeFlux array exch into a specific S/R called from
1245        do_oceanic_phys.F
1246      - add interface to pkg/salt_plume (filling of saltPlumeFlux) in pkg/thsice.
1247    o verification:
1248      - move untested set-up to MITgcm_contrib/verification_other.
1249    o pkg/seaice:
1250      - retire old way of SEAICE_AGE. Now replaced with ALLOW_SITRACER.
1251    o pkg/seaice:
1252      - seaice_solve4temp.F (keeping results unchanged):
1253        * add 2 future run-time params to select which saturation vapor pressure
1254          formula is used and how post-iteration fluxes are set.
1255          Temporary set these 2 params according to option SOLVE4TEMP_LEGACY;
1256        * New piece of code (not used) to update surf. atmos. heat flux F_ia using
1257          the linearized expression to stay consistent with tsurf finding.
1258      - seaice_freedrift.F avoid floating exception in sqrt(y) since y=sqrt(x*x)-x
1259        can be < 0.
1260    o pkg/seaice/seaice_solve4temp.F (SOLVE4TEMP_LEGACY undef):
1261      - remove from F_ia (and from it's derivative dFiDTs1) the contribution of
1262        conductive heat flux F_c , and add it explicitly when updating tsurf as
1263        solution of: Fc = Fia + d/dT(Fia - Fc) *delta.tsurf
1264        so that now F_ia has a consistent meaning through the entire routine.
1265        This causes differences at truncation level: update output of fwd exp.
1266        global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice.
1267    o pkg/seaice:
1268      - lots of editing/cleaning in seaice_solve4temp.F + better documentation
1269        of arrays, sign/direction of fluxes; no effect on results.
1270      - replace hard coded 273.16 (=previous value of celsius2K) by celsius2K
1271        in seaice_budget_ocean.F & seaice_solve4temp.F (SOLVE4TEMP_LEGACY part);
1272        note: this should have been done before changing celsius2K default.
1273      - to keep results unchanged, add back old value of celsius2K in verification
1274        exp. input*/data : lab_sea (AD), offline_exf_seaice (fwd+AD) & seaice_obcs
1275      - replace hard coded seawater freezing temp in seaice_solve4temp.F (part
1276        SOLVE4TEMP_LEGACY) of 271.20 (=previous value of celsius2K + default
1277        value of SEAICE_freeze) by celsius2K+SEAICE_freeze so that seawater
1278        freezing temp is consistent with value in seaice_growth.F ; this causes
1279        differences at machine truncation level: update lab_sea AD output (3/4).
1280    o pkg/seaice:
1281      - mask (in exf_init_fixed.F) atemp,aqh,evap,precip,runoff,lwflx,areamask
1282        and climsst/sss even when using seaice (to prevent calculation that might
1283        use SST on land); does not affect any verification exp.
1284      - apply mask to taux,tauy (in seaice_get_dynforcing.F); update output
1285        of lab_sea.fd & lab_sea.hb87 and global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice_dynmix.
1286    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F: add mask to avoid non-zero ice thickness
1287      over land (non-legacy code)
1288    o vectorize salt_plume package:
1289      - add extra code to salt_plume_frac and salt_plume_tendency_apply_s
1290      - this code computes plumebk everywhere (also over land), thus requires
1291        code to avoid divisions by zero and catch the case of kLev=Nr.
1292      - efficiency of salt_plume_frac is still sub-optimal
1293    o tools (genmake2):
1294      - fix makefile NAME specification (option: -makefile NAME) by adding
1295        "-f $MAKEFILE" in few places where it was missing including makedepend
1296        command (contribution from Paul).
1297    
1298    checkpoint63i (2012/01/24)
1299    o model/src:
1300      - add factorized versions of some EOS code to find_rho.F,
1301        define USE_FACTORIZED_EOS to turn it on (default for TARGET_NEC_SX)
1302    o model/src:
1303      - add celsius2K to namelist PARM01; remove unused recip_rhoNil from PARAMS.h;
1304      - change default celsius2K from 273.16 to 273.15
1305      - to keep results unchanged, add back old value of celsius2K in verification
1306        exp. input*/data : aim.5l_cs, 1D_ocean_ice_column, lab_sea (fwd),
1307         global_ocean.cs32x15(seaice) & cpl_aim+ocn(input_atm).
1308    o model/src: add a little initialisation trick to find_rho.F and find_alpha.F
1309      to make TAF generate vectorizable code
1310    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp.F: add code (copied from CICE) that avoids underflows.
1311       Turn on by defining SEAICE_EVP_ELIMINATE_UNDERFLOWS. Most compilers
1312       have flags that do this more efficiently.
1313    o pkg/diagnostics/diagstats_calc.F
1314      - for TARGET_NEC_SX fix the treatment of the scaling factor tmpFac=scaleFact
1315    o pkg/obcs (with exch2):
1316      - derive OB indices in overlap region from OB-InsideMask (in obcs_init_fixed.F)
1317        and remove code (in obcs_readparms.F) which was based on EXCH of indices
1318        (through buffer) and did not account for exch2 (e.g., CS-grid) topology.
1319    o pkg/exf and seaice exp:
1320      - change offline_exf_seaice.seaicetd test exp. to use default DIFF1 value (=0)
1321        so that switching off area & heff advection flags does not affect results.
1322      - change default EXF_LWDOWN_WITH_EMISSIVITY to #define in EXF_OPTIONS.h
1323      - keep exp. seaice_obcs & 1D_ocean_ice_column(ad) unchanged (using #undef
1324        EXF_LWDOWN_WITH_EMISSIVITY) and, using pkg/exf default emissivities, update
1325        results of verification experiments: 1D_ocean_ice_column(fwd),
1326        global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice(fwd+ad) & seaice_dynmix(ad), lab_sea (all 8)
1327        and offline_exf_seaice (all 4).
1328    o pkg/seaice:
1329      - remove array YNEG, RIVER, TMIX (replaced by local var) from common block;
1330        remove also areaNm1 & hEffNm1 when SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY is undef.
1331      - fix bug: areaNm1 & hEffNm1 are needed in seaice_growth (SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY)
1332        but were not filled when resp. SEAICEadvArea=F & SEAICEadvHeff=F and
1333        not multi-dim advection;
1334      - fix seaice_growth.F to compile with both SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY and
1335        SHORTWAVE_HEATING #undef.
1336    o optim: make Makefile more robust (?)
1337    o pkg/obcs:
1338      * fix treatment of obcs_read_pickup for TAF
1339    o pkg/shelfice:
1340      * add missing initialisation of num_shifwflx
1341      * new adjoint verification exp. for isomip
1342      * change Prandtl and Schmidt numbers from generic formulations
1343        (in terms of model diffus. and visc.) to separate runtime
1344        parameters, with Holland and Jenkins (1999) default values.
1345    o pkg/exf (interpolation):
1346      - extended input field (2 rows) near the N & S poles:
1347        * fill in with the symetric value (when even Nb of data in longitude)
1348        * add average value at the poles only for scalar quantities ; for vector
1349          component interpolation, skip the averaging and keep duplicated values,
1350          unless the 2 components have same location (uvInterp=T) in which case
1351          interpolate the 2 components together using S/R EXF_INTERP_UV.
1352      - new S/R EXF_INTERP_UV to interpolate the 2 components of a vector field
1353        together: this allows to account properly for local orientation when
1354        averaging at N & S pole.
1355      - add CPP option EXF_USE_OLD_INTERP_POLE to recover old results regarding
1356        exf-interpolation near N & S poles. Undef by default.
1357      - add debug check/print on 1rst iter if debugLevel >=2.
1358    o pkg/exf:
1359      - change masking flags definition (no longer "parameter"), put them in
1360        common block and set them in S/R EXF_INIT_FIXED.
1361      - change recognized masking flag from s,u,v to c,w,s since the mask
1362        to use (maskC,W,S) depends on position on model grid and has little to
1363        do with scalar/vector difference; fix masking if using P-coordinates.
1364      - fix masking of wind-stress (was wrong if interpolated or read on A-grid)
1365        and update results of exp. global_with_exf (x2).
1366      - fix setting of zenith-angle table when SHORTWAVE_HEATING is undef.
1367    o pkg/obcs
1368      - S/R obcs_calc_stevens: fix a small bug (gammat -> gammas where appropriate)
1369    o pkg/exf (interpolation):
1370      - assume periodicity in X only if input field cover full longitude range.
1371      - improve search for lat. index (supposed to be faster, in ~log2(ny) steps,
1372        and should vectorise).
1373      - fix input lat of the 2 added row (in case we provide N.pole data).
1374    
1375    checkpoint63h (2011/12/30)
1376    o pkg/seaice:
1377      - change declaration of UVM from _RL to _RS in order to get B-grid
1378        uIce,vIce monitor when _RS = real*4
1379    o pkg/offline:
1380      - new S/R OFFLINE_RESET_PARMS for resetting main-model params (switch off flags);
1381      - compute vertical velocity if not read from file (switch on exactConserv
1382        & staggerTimeStep);
1383      - fix output of ptracer monitor iter & time for default PTRACERS_monitorFreq.
1384    o verification:
1385      - update grid-files (in tutorial_held_suarez_cs/input and fizhi-cs-32x32x40/input)
1386        with grid-angle generated using "utils/matlab/cs_grid/cubeCalcAngle.m":
1387        fix Pb in yG definition @ 2 missing corners (previously yG was averaged);
1388      - update output of exp. global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4 after changing
1389        grid-file angles (used here for coriolis-3d);
1390      - remove (or gzip) few files not needed to run fizhi-cs experiments.
1391    o pkg/exf (vector interpolation):
1392      - rotate vector component toward local grid-axis orientation using grid-angles
1393        (stored in GRID.h) instead of locally computed rotation angle; keep old code
1394        available with exf option EXF_USE_OLD_VEC_ROTATION (undef by default).
1395    o pkg/seaice:
1396      - allow to compile with exf options ALLOW_ATM_TEMP or ALLOW_DOWNWARD_RADIATION
1397        undefined. Fix and remove the stop when ALLOW_RUNOFF is undefined.
1398    o pkg/PKG_OPTIONS.h files:
1399      - move #include "CPP_OPTIONS.h" just after #include "PACKAGES_CONFIG.h",
1400        outside of the #ifdef ALLOW_THISPKG / #endif block.
1401      - update verification/*/code/PKG_OPTIONS.h files.
1402    o add a verification experiment (offline_exf_seaice/input.seaice) that test
1403      the B-grid LSOR solver
1404    o pkg/seaice: sort out emissivity and long wave radiation step 2:
1405      - add emissivity for snow and ice as new run-time parameters
1406        (unfortunately) that default to the corresponding exf values; this
1407        changes results in most verification experiments so that for backward
1408        compatibility these parameter have to be set explicitly to inconsistent
1409        values (ugly);
1410      - the exf-flag EXF_LWDOWN_WITH_EMISSIVITY then gets rid off the hard-wired
1411        emissivities of 0.97 associated with lwdownloc in S/R seaice_solve4temp
1412        until we agree how to handle this bug properly
1413    o pkg/exf (interpolation):
1414      - add a set of run-time param ({inputfield}_interpMethod), one for
1415        each interpolated input field, to select the interpolation method
1416        with a value of zero switching off the interpolation;
1417      - print interpolation parameters to standard output;
1418      - refine exf_check.F accordingly ; stop if USE_NO_INTERP_RUNOFF is defined
1419        (to use instead runoff_interpMethod=0 in data.exf).
1420      - simplify default setting of interpolation parameters (for all fields,
1421        set position to match model grid cell-center position, leading to trivial
1422        interpolation in case of regular Lat-Lon grid) and fix for the case of
1423        non-uniform delY.
1424    o pkg/exf/exf_radiation.F: add the factor ocean_emissivity to lwdown, for
1425       within #ifdef EXF_LWDOWN_WITH_EMISSIVITY/#endif. Unless ocean_emissivity=1.
1426       this factor is absolutely required, because the lw exitance (= out-going
1427       long wave radiation) is emissivity*stefanBoltzmann*T^4 + rho*lwdown,
1428       where the reflectivity rho = 1-emissivity for conservation reasons. Once
1429       this is established, we can remove the CPP-Flag (if we want to).
1430    o pkg/seaice:
1431      - qualify a stop statement in S/R seaice_check: EXF_READ_EVAP and
1432        ALLOW_BULKFORMULAE are only required if SEAICE_EXTERNAL_FLUXES is defined
1433      - sort out emissivity and long wave radiation, step 1: make SEAICE_emissivity
1434        what the name implies (and not emissivity*BoltzmannConstant), this means
1435        the old default value of 5.5e-8 now means
1436        5.5e-8/5.670e-8 = 0.97001763668430343479 as ocean_emissivity in
1437        S/R exf_readparms
1438      - FV-discretization of the B-grid LSOR solver, turn on with
1439        SEAICE_LSRBNEW. This new solver also involves a slight re-organization
1440        of the calling routine dynsolver, so that B and C-grid code look a
1441        little more alike.
1442      - fix index bugs in ostres.F (B-grid code)
1443    o pkg/seaice/seaice_ocean_budget.F: change (unused) code to make it look better
1444    o pkg/seaice/seaice_readparms.F: make ocean_emissivity*stefanBoltzmann the
1445      default for SEAICE_emissivity, if useEXF; requires setting a wrong
1446      parameter value in global_ocean.cs32x15/input.seaice/data.seaice for
1447      backward compatiblity
1448    o model/src: use sigmaR in calc_ivdc
1449    
1450    checkpoint63g (2011/12/16)
1451    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F:
1452      fix heat conservation of the coupled ocean-seaice system.
1453      when SEAICE_HEAT_CONSERV_FIX is defined, the mismatch of
1454      solid vs liquid water treatment is resolved via QNET.
1455    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F:
1456      add missing term for sublimation in saltFlux, which was breaking conservation.
1457    o pkg/seaice/seaice_model.F:
1458      Remove this patholigical case treatment in evolution branch,
1459      where it is un-necessary and breaks conservation.
1460      Update global_ocean.cs32x15/results accordingly for
1461      output.seaice.txt output_adm.seaice.txt and output_adm.seaice_dynmix.txt
1462    o model/src:
1463      useRealFreshWaterFlux: remove masking of EmPmP (using maskInC) in
1464      external_forcing_surf.F and apply mask directly in S/R SOLVE_FOR_PRESSURE.
1465    o pkg/obcs:
1466      modify Stevens boundary conditions so that S/R obcs_calc_stevens computes
1467      tendency for temperature and salinity that is then applied to update
1468      theta and salt in S/R obcs_apply_ts; this requires proper masking of all
1469      horizontal advection and diffusion contributions on the boundary (in
1470      S/Rs gad_advection, gad_calc_rhs, gmredi_rtransport, gmredi_calc_diff), and
1471      removing the mask in S/R timestep_tracer. The advantage of this approach is
1472      that the updated tracer values include contributions from the surface
1473      forcing and vertical diffusion.
1474      This modification changes exp4.stevens because of vertical diffusion.
1475    o model/src:
1476      change non-curvilinear grid setting to also work with exch2 + blank tiles:
1477      - move delX,delY to new header file (SET_GRID.h) and adjust length to 1rst
1478        face dimensions.
1479      - new S/R INI_LOCAL_GRID to define model tile-local grid (using same units
1480        as delX,delY) and called from S/R INI_CARTESIAN_GRID, INI_CYLINDER_GRID
1481        and INI_SPHERICAL_POLAR_GRID.
1482      change test-experiment global_ocean.90x40x15:
1483      - split the domain in many more tiles (9x4 tiles of 10x10 each);
1484      - switch to exch2 and remove 1 blank-tile (but only for MPI test).
1485      - update results of both test (std & dwnslp).
1486    o pkg/diagnostics/diagstat_calc.F: fix problem with non-initialised halos in
1487       tmp-fields for TARGET_NEC_SX at the cost of extra loops and less vectorisation
1488    o model/src:
1489      - take sigma-coords related code out of update_etah.F into new S/R UPDATE_ETAWS
1490        and fix initialisation when using sigma-coords.
1491    o model/src:
1492     - improve Gael's changes from Jan 14, 2011 "addition of an 'update' of hfacc etc.
1493       to their current value at the beginning of forward_step.F": add a new run-time
1494       switch "doResetHFactors" (default=false) and use it to do (or not) the resetting.
1495     - set doResetHFactors=T in the following test exp:
1496        global_ocean.90x40x15/input (rStar) & input.dwnslp (linFS),
1497        global_ocean.cs32x15/input.seaice (rStar), hs94.cs-32x32x5/input.impIGW (linFS)
1498        and tutorial_global_oce_in_p (nonLinFS in p)
1499    o pkg/ecco
1500      - added IES cost term
1501    o verification/advect_xz
1502      - scale down the depth by 1/100 (from 200 km to just 2.km)
1503      - add secondary test using divergent flow, r-star and implicit vertical advection.
1504      - add note (check_conserve_TS.txt) and matlab script to check global
1505        conservation of T & S with NonLin-FreeSurf and Adams-Bashforth.
1506    o pkg/rbcs:
1507      - add missing relaxUFile & relaxVFile in namelist (in rbcs_readparms.F).
1508    o pkg/obcs (Stevens BCs):
1509      - fix various problems in the phase speed computations of the Stevens
1510        boundary conditions:
1511        - sign error for western and southern boundaries,
1512        - time tendencies were underestimated by factor of dTracerLev and some just
1513          zero (for multidim advection schemes) -> now estimate time tendencies
1514          from difference between previous (n) time level and the one before (n-1);
1515          this requires storing a field per tracer per boundary, also in the pickup
1516          files.
1517        - replace deltaTmom in cflMer/Zon computation with dTracerLev
1518        - set default phase velocity to cflMer/Zon
1519      - update verification experiment exp4.stevens
1520    o pkg/generic_advdiff (implicit_r):
1521      - fix implicit vertical advection conservation with AB and/or NonLin-FreeSurf
1522        (remove Tr*d/dz(w) in gad_implicit_r.F and add it in gad_calc_rhs.F);
1523      - fix implicit vertical diffusion or advection with NonLin FreeSurf
1524        (was using current recip_hFacC instead of future recip_hFacC): set future
1525        recip_hFac in thermodynamics.F and pass & use it in all vertical implicit
1526        solver S/R ;
1527      - fill diagnostics of vertical advective fluxes (computed from tendency)
1528        when using implicit vert. advection;
1529      - update output of exp that uses NonLin-FreeSurf & implicit vertical diffusion:
1530         global_ocean.90x40x15 (fwd+AD), global_ocean.cs32x15 (4 fwd +4 AD),
1531         tutorial_global_oce_in_p (fwd), tutorial_tracer_adjsens (AD)
1532         and cpl_aim+ocn (used in ocean); to be fixed: bottom_ctrl_5x5.
1533    o pkg/diagnostics:
1534      - add diags for T & S tendency which goes through Adams-Bashforth.
1535    
1536    checkpoint63f (2011/11/30)
1537    o pkg/obcs/obcs_calc_stevens.F:
1538      - join some loops to reduce number of if-statements
1539      - fix a bug in code for northern and southern boundaries.
1540    o pkg/seaice/seaice_init_varia.F
1541      - undo resetting UVM=0 that has slipped in unnoticed in r1.49 and
1542        caused zero ice-velocities for the B-grid code
1543    o pkg/seaice/seaice_init_fixed.F
1544      - fix a bug in the initialisation of the second metric terms
1545        k2AtC and k2AtZ: k2AtC was set to the value of k2AtZ and k2AtZ was 0.
1546      - this affects all seaice configurations with useCurviLinearGrid = .true.
1547        and SEAICEuseDynamics = .true. (default) and SEAICEuseMetricTerms
1548        = .true. (default)
1549      - the only verification experiment affected is global_ocean.cs32x15:
1550        icedyn, seaice, and seaice_dynmix (AD)
1551    o pkg/thsice/thsice_diagnostics_state.F
1552      - only for TARGET_NEC_SX: initialise all of tmpFld, so that overlap does
1553        not contain garbage that can lead to surprises in diagstats_calc.F
1554    o model/src:
1555      - move bi,bj loops inside INTEGR_CONTINUITY ;
1556      - call INTEGR_CONTINUITY directly from forward_step.F
1557        (previously called from momentum_correction_step.F)
1558      - call UPDATE_ETAH from integr_continuity.F and update initialise_varia.F,
1559        forward_step.F and pkg/ecco/the_main_loop.F
1560    o model/src/do_oceanic_phys.F:
1561      - reset addMass to zero only if useICEFRONT ;
1562      - separated k-loop for rhoInSitu calculation ;
1563      - add 2 diagnostics for wVel*delta^k(Rho) at constant pressure (= WdRHO_P)
1564        and at constant T,S (= WdRHOdP);
1565      NOTE: change diagnostics WRHOMASS : this is now simply the Vertical transport
1566        of In-Situ Density (Anomaly) (=wVel*rho^bar-k) (previously was Vertical
1567        transport of locally-referenced potential density);
1568        to recover old diag: (WRHOMASS)_old = (WRHOMASS)_new -1/2 * (WdRHOdP)
1569    o gluemnc:
1570      - replace ncrcat with ncks when adding variables to *.glob.nc
1571      - change the way variables without record dimensions are handled so that
1572        files that have variables with and without record variables can be glued:
1573        add a record dimension with a new unique name to be able to differentiate
1574        between variable with and without a-prior record dimensions. Remove
1575        this record dimension before adding the variable to the *.glob.nc file.
1576        This procedure automatically works also for grid.*.nc files that do not
1577        have any record dimension.
1578    o verification/cpl_aim+ocn:
1579      - generate new reference output on baudelaire (gfortran, mpich2) (previously
1580        from old aces-grid cluster, ao + ifort) and update 'run_cpl_test' script.
1581    o pkg/obcs/obcs_calc_stevens.F:
1582      - add code for northern and southern boundaries.
1583      - reorder some loops to save some operations and so that drFBar can be scalar
1584    o model/src:
1585      - re-arrange extrapolation calculation in Adams-Bashforth S/R (affects machine
1586        truncation) and add diagnostics for Adams-Bashforth tendency increment.
1587      - update test-exp. AD output:
1588        1D_ocean_ice_column, bottom_ctrl_5x5, lab_sea.noseaicedyn, obcs_ctrl;
1589      and FWD output: exp4 (x3), fizhi-cs-32x32x40, fizhi-cs-aqualev20,
1590        front_relax (x3), global_ocean.90x40x15 (x2), global_ocean.cs32x15 (x5),
1591        global_ocean_ebm, ideal_2D_oce, internal_wave, isomip (x3), lab_sea (x4),
1592        matrix_example, MLAdjust (x5), natl_box (x2), tutorial_advection_in_gyre,
1593        tutorial_global_oce_in_p, tutorial_global_oce_latlon and
1594        tutorial_plume_on_slope.
1595    o pkg/diagnostics/diagstats_calc.F: add special code for TARGET_NEC_SX
1596      that vectorises. This code uses 3 extra 2D fields, F90 array assignments
1597      and F90 intrinsic routines SUM, MINVAL, MAXVAL, but since TARGET_NEC_SX
1598      does not even come with an F77 compiler anymore, this should not be
1599      a limitation
1600    
1601    checkpoint63e (2011/11/06)
1602    o pkg/seaice adjoint of LSR:
1603      - substantially rework STORE dirs.
1604      - add new flag SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER and parameter SOLV_MAX_FIXED
1605        this flag will do SOLV_MAX_ITERS but only store SOLV_MAX_FIXED fields
1606        and only perform SOLV_MAX_FIXED adjoint iters.
1607        If flag SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER is undef-ined, the store in the iteration
1608        always goes to same record, meaning that the last forward field will be
1609        the one used in the adjoint - an approximation.
1610      - now produces non-zero LSR-related gradients, and acceptable gradients for
1611        An's zonal (x-z) test case (to be checked in)
1612      - lab_sea: produces acceptable gradients for lab_sea with forward/backward LSR
1613        (but these are screwed up by the thermodynamics in the first place);
1614        reduce from 4 to 3 timesteps to avoid t.d. issue as temporary solution;
1615        output_adm.txt also reflects changes to seaice_lsr
1616      - global_ocean.cs32x15:
1617        * the "default" input_ad.seaice has been re-defined to always exclude dynamics
1618          (output_adm.seaice.txt was updated)
1619        * new input_ad.seaice_dynmix tests a forward LSR / backward free-drift
1620          (output_adm.seaice_dynmix.txt)
1621    o test-exp. exp4+stevens:
1622      - switch off pTracers and nonHydrostatic (restart problems with NH); update output
1623    o pkg/seaice (lsr solver):
1624      - put coriolis term into FORCEX,Y (as in seaice_evp.F; previously in rhsU,V only);
1625        update output (change truncation) of FWD test exp lab_sea & global_ocean.cs32x15
1626      - fix SEAICEuseFREEDRIFT for new OBCS version (ndef OBCS_UVICE_OLD)
1627      - new parameter "LSR_mixIniGuess" allows (if=2,4) to mix free-drift solution
1628        into initial guess for linearised solver; use weight ~ (1/err)^2,4.
1629      - compute (with new S/R) and print initial (+ free-driff sol. if available)
1630        and final residual of linearised system.
1631    o pkg/pp81: add diagnostics for vertical eddy viscosity and diffusivity
1632      (requires new subroutines pp81_init_fixed.F/pp81_diagnostics_init.F)
1633    o pkg/obcs: Stevens BCs (still only for east and west)
1634      - fix Stevens BCs by using intermediate velocities of previous
1635        time step as "baroclinic" contribution rather velocity of one grid cell
1636        inside the boundaries; more consistent but makes the entire treatment
1637        more complicated, requires new pickup files and two new S/Rs:
1638        obcs_copy_uv_n and obcs_save_uv_n
1639        keep old version with flag OBCS_STEVENS_USE_INTERIOR_VELOCITY
1640        (undefined by default)
1641      - silently move computation of some grid factors into separate loops to
1642        save some recomputations
1643      - add a hack for non-linear free surface
1644      - add a verification experiment to exp4 that tests this code
1645    o make gluemnc/xplodemnc work with (moron) non-GNU shell tools
1646    
1647    checkpoint63d (2011/10/25)
1648    o pkg/obcs + seaice-dynamics:
1649      - new implementation calls OBCS_APPLY_UVICE (in seaice_dynsolver.F) before
1650        solving for uIce,vIce and prevent SEAICE_LSR or SEAICE_EVP to modify OB
1651        values (consistent with an implicit method).
1652      - add option OBCS_UVICE_OLD (in OBCS_OPTIONS.h, defined by default) to
1653        return to older implementation (same results as before); note that none of
1654        the "experimental" OBCS_SEAICE options are implemented in the new version.
1655      - switch test exp. seaice_obcs to use new version (update output).
1656    o pkg/seaice:
1657      - add few stop (B-grid & CS-exch, B-grid & obcs, AUTODIFF & SEAICE_maskRHS)
1658      - add parenthesis in Water-Ice drag calculations (evp & lsr);
1659      - in seaice_lsr.F, simplify and fix AA3 setting in case sNx or sNy=1;
1660        and fix case SEAICE_waterDrag=0 (but unstable if no or little seaice)
1661      - update output of test exp lab_sea that uses evp or lsr (fwd+ad)
1662        and global_ocean.cs32x15 (icedyn & seaice fwd+ad).
1663    o pkg/layers:
1664      - Include potential density as new coordinate (Thanks to David Munday)
1665    o pkg/dic:
1666      - Remove subroutine CALC_PCO2_APPROX_CO3 from carbon_chem.F and add
1667        carbonate computation/output to CALC_PCO2_APPROX
1668    o pkg/generic_advdiff
1669      - make TAF generate code that vectorizes:
1670        gad_dst3fl_adv_*.F, gad_u3c4_impl_r.F
1671    o model/src:
1672      - improve vectorization also for adjoint code of
1673        solve_tridiagonal and solve_pentadiagonal. As this requires up to
1674        5 new 3D-fields, this code is only turned on for the combination of
1675        ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC and TARGET_NEC_SX. Also remove error message
1676        for singular matrix check (only for TARGET_NEC_SX).
1677      - remove hard-wiring of CPP-flag ALLOW_SOLVERS_KLOOPINSIDE to
1678        ALLOW_AUTODIFF. This flag now needs to be set outside of
1679        solve_tri/pentadiagonal.F
1680    o pkg/exf:
1681      - fix previous modif in exf_readparms.F (revision 1.66: treatment of
1682        optional namelist EXF_NML_OBCS).
1683      - add many debug-print (to trace down where pkg/cal error msg comes from)
1684    o pkg/mom_vecinv/mom_vi_hdissip.F
1685      - rearrange loops so that vectorization is improved and in particular
1686        the adjoint routine vectorizes. The code is a little longer now, but I
1687        think easier to read.
1688        Note: CPP-flag MOM_VI_ORIGINAL_VISCA4 is not tested.
1689    o pkg/seaice:
1690      - allow to specify initial seaice velocity from files (uIceFile,vIceFile)
1691    o pkg/exch2:
1692      - alternative code (without tile x tile matrix) for cumulated (global) sum;
1693        used as default; keep using matrix version in adjustment.cs-32x32x1.
1694    o tools/build_options:
1695      - after merging some MPI and/or multi-threads specific optfiles so that
1696        the modified default optfile support both built (using genmake2 -mpi
1697        for the MPI built, using genmake2 -omp for OpenMP built),
1698        move now obsolete optfiles to tools/build_options/unsupported/
1699       (add copy of email sent to support list in doc/optfiles_changes.txt)
1700    
1701    checkpoint63c (2011/09/28)
1702    o pkg/ebm:
1703      - fix ebm_zonalmean.F for several procs in Ydir (nPy > 1); update output of
1704        test exp. global_ocean_ebm (affects machine truncation, 12 digits for cg2d)
1705    o pkg/seaice (SItracer pickup)
1706    * Simple code for pickup of SItracer fields (#define ALLOW_SITRACER)
1707      To be done:
1708      - thorough testing of missing fields in S/R seaice_read_pickup
1709      - thorough matching between generic tracers and specific fields used
1710        (e.g. volume-weighted age, area-weighted age, salinity, ...)
1711    o pkg/grdchk:
1712      - all procs calculate and print finite-difference gradient (for testreport)
1713      - change description output used by testreport;
1714      - AD testing: also compare and report Finite-difference gradient;
1715        => update all output_adm*.txt
1716    o test exp. global_ocean_ebm:
1717      - switch back useRealFreshWaterFlux (no problem anymore with run-off);
1718        and turn on exactConserve; update (fwd) output.
1719    o pkg/seaice (LSR):
1720      - print to STDOUT number of solver iterations at SEAICE_monFreq interval.
1721      - modify solver to deal cleanly with u/v switch at face edges (CS-grid):
1722        * identical results with non-CS topology (but save up to half of EXCH calls)
1723        * no much changes in cs-32 verification tests since no ice at face edges
1724         (differences due to convergence criteria, since nb of iterations changed)
1725        * expect some differences on lat-lon-cap grid.
1726        update FWD results of global_ocean.cs32x15 test exp. (icedyn & seaice)
1727    o pkg/exch2:
1728      - add new CPP option to disable Cumul-Sum matrix (to save storage when using
1729        many tiles); until alternative coding is added, just add a stop.
1730    o pkg/kpp:
1731      - move ptracer/salt correction to KPP diffusivity from calc_3d_diffusivity.F
1732        to S/R KPP_CALC_DIFF_PTR (+ add tracer-index to argument list).
1733    o optfiles:
1734      - merged few MPI specific (*+mpi*) and multi-threads specific (*+mth) optfiles
1735        into corresponding standard one, which now support different build:
1736        (when using "genmake2 -mpi" for MPI built, "genmake2 -omp" for OpenMP built)
1737      - add "darwin_amd64_gfortran" optfile (initially from Constantinos, tested by Gael)
1738    o pkg/obcs (seaice):
1739      - add missing EXCH for uIce,vIce after applying OBCS;
1740      - remove S/R EXF_SWAPFFIELDS_X/Y , disable S/R EXF_SET_OBCS_X/Y by adding
1741        argument = number of levels to S/R EXF_SWAPFFIELDS_XZ/YZ and S/R
1742        EXF_SET_OBCS_XZ/YZ ; update obcs_exf_load.F;
1743      - fix EXF_SET_OBCS_XZ/YZ for multi-threaded (assuming loaded arrays are shared)
1744      - verification exp. seaice_obcs: split domain in 2 tiles ; add SIZE.h_mpi
1745        and eedata.mth for MPI and mutlti-threaded testing.
1746    o pkg/flt:
1747      - make FLT EXCH working with multi-threads (and MPI + multi-threads);
1748      - use buffer for floats IO (trajectories & profiles); size set in FLT_SIZE.h;
1749      - fix pickup and trajectories + profiles output with multi-threads;
1750      - add parameter to select group of fields to write along trajectory and
1751        profile (default unchanged);
1752      - only call PORT_RAND* function when flt_noise <> 0;
1753      - add multi-threaded test for verification exp. flt_example.
1754    o eesupp/src:
1755      - fix S/R ALL_PROC_DIE for MPI+multi-threads.
1756      - USE_OMP_THREADING: check that number of threads (from eedata) matches
1757        actual number (from env.var. setting).
1758    o pkg/ebm:
1759      - fix multi-threading in ebm_area_t.F ; clean-up EBM.h header file.
1760      - add multi-threaded test for verification exp. global_ocean_ebm
1761    
1762    checkpoint63b (2011/08/29)
1763    o pkg/ebm:
1764      - fix sign of runoff;
1765      - update directly forcing fields (Qnet,EmPmR) to use standard
1766        external_forcing_surf.F (remove ebm_forcing_surf.F);
1767      - avoid loading forcing fields a 2nd time (1rst time from ini_forcing.F);
1768      - set either tauThetaClimRelax (in data) or tauThetaZonRelax (in data.ebm)
1769        and apply relaxation towards corresponding SST field (2-D map or ZonAver).
1770      - update global_ocean_ebm parameters file data and update output (fwd+ad).
1771    o verification/matrix_example:
1772      - split domain in 8 tiles (2x4); add SIZE.h_mpi and eedata.mth for
1773        MPI and mutlti-threaded testing.
1774    o pkg/matrix:
1775      - change name of S/R MATRIX_INIT to S/R MATRIX_INIT_VARIA ;
1776      - fix for multi-tiles (add bi,bj indices to exp/impMatrixCounter);
1777      - fix for multi-threaded (remove DATA statement);
1778      - use standard DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE function;
1779      - add MATRIX_OPTIONS.h
1780    o verification/matrix_example:
1781       To allow to split the domain in several tiles, change the domain size
1782        from 31x31 to 32x32 by adding 1 row (on Southern side) + 1 column (on
1783        Western side) of land points.
1784    o (*_)write_pickup:
1785      - fix few bugs in mypackage_read/write_pickup.F
1786      - in MDS_WR_METAFILES calls, replace "myTime" by a local copy into
1787        array of length 1 (was caught by compiler syntax-check).
1788    o pkg/diagnostics (velocity potential solver):
1789      - fix initialisation of main diagonal matrix (for overlap values)
1790    o tools/build_options:
1791      - towards single optfile for MPI and non-MPI built: merge few +mpi optfile
1792        into previously non MPI one (linux_am64 pgf77,open64,pathf90,ifort11)
1793      - linux_amd64_gfortran: merge +mpi_generic version into standard optfile:
1794        * move IEEE flags to DEVEL section; take IEEE flags from +mpi_generic ;
1795        * FAST case: for now, keep -O3 with ini_masks_etc.F in NOOPTFILES list;
1796        and use "-devel" testreport option for standard testing on baudelaire.
1797    o pkg/grdchk:
1798      - Assume that all gradient-check position are within the same tile
1799        corresponding to global indices (iGloTile,jGloTile) and that
1800        positions (i,j indices or nbeg) are local to this tile;
1801      - set tile local-indices and proc. number according to tile global-indices;
1802      - remove grdchkwhichproc from namelist (retired param);
1803      - send adjoint gradient to all procs so that all procs print it to STDOUT;
1804      - switch on MPI test for global_ocean.90x40x15 AD test experiment.
1805    o adding package bbl (Bottom Boundary Layer)
1806      description in MITgcm/pkg/bbl/bbl_description.tex
1807      example/test experiment in MITgcm_contrib/bbl
1808    o adjoint verifications
1809      - changed 5 experiments to multi-tiles
1810        * global_ocean.90x40x15
1811        * obcs_ctrl
1812        * offline_exf_seaice
1813        * tutorial_dic_adjoffline
1814        * tutorial_tracer_adjsens
1815        changed reference output for those that crossed tile boundaries
1816        (changed choices of gradient check positions)
1817      - with same tiling, switch on MPI test for the last 4 (add SIZE.h_mpi)
1818      - temporary bug fix in grdchk_loc.F for obcs
1819    o genmake2 & testreport
1820      - add target "obj" (just for OBJFILES files) to Makefile;
1821      - add option to specify FEXTRAFLAGS on command line.
1822    o pkg/mypackage:
1823      - remove bi,bj arguments from argument list of S/R MYPACKAGE_CALC_RHS
1824    
1825    checkpoint63a (2011/08/02)
1826    o pkg/diagnostics (velocity potential):
1827      - fix velocity-potential calculation when using OBCS: balance net inflow
1828        at each level (new S/R OBCS_DIAG_BALANCE).
1829      - fix some of the problems with OBCS in stream-function calculation.
1830    o pkg/exf/exf_readparms.F
1831      - make treatment of optional namelists (EXF_NML_04, EXF_NML_SGRUNOFF,
1832        EXF_NML_OBCS) more consistent, so that you need not have these lists
1833        in data.exf when they are not used.
1834    o optim/optim_readdata.F:
1835      - add some output about obcs variables that might help debugging
1836      - add a check about nvarlength
1837    o pkg/ctrl: once again, fix computation of endrec in s/r ctrl_init_rec
1838    o pkg/diagnostics (velocity potential):
1839      - fix mask for OBCS (still problems in stream-function with OBCS);
1840      - add specific parameter (default = main code CG2D params) for solver;
1841      - in case of poor convergence, use solution corresponding to lowest residual.
1842    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F: small changes that permit vectorizable
1843      adjoint code. In general statements like tmpscal=fld(i,j) are problematic
1844      and should be avoided where possible.
1845    o model/src (rStar):
1846      - include r* effect on reference-state (PhiRef) in totPhiHyd
1847        (so that it's really the potential anomaly at the cell center);
1848        affect solution only if z* with full pressure in EOS.
1849      - test-exp global_ocean.90x40x15: reduce viscA4 (was not stable) and
1850        update output (because of z* in totPhiHyd and viscA4 changes);
1851      - keep the previous diagnostics as "PHIHYDcR" (closer to potential anomaly
1852        @ constant r) until interpolation at constant r is implemented.
1853    o pkg/diagnostics
1854      - fix RCENTER diagnostics in case cell center is not at interface middle
1855    o add code for TEOS-10 (www.teos-10.org, McDougall et al. 2011). Use
1856      this eos with eosType = 'TEOS10', in data (PARM01). This eos implies
1857      that THETA and SALT are "conservative temperature" and "absolute
1858      salinity"
1859    o pkg/ctrl
1860      - fix computation of endrec in s/r ctrl_init_rec
1861      - ctrl_pack/unpack_*: remove unused variables and some obsolete code
1862    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F
1863      - fix recomputation with FENTY_AREA_EXPANSION_CONTRACTION code,
1864        remove then obsolete STORE directives
1865      - fix STORE directives for tice and tices, so that only the
1866        appropriate part of the fields are stored (and not the entire
1867        field); update global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice AD output.
1868      - cosmetic changes: adjust CPP flags and indentation for better
1869        legibilty
1870    o pkg/autodiff: add mnc-output of adBottomDragFld (code contributed by
1871      Chris Wilson)
1872    o pkg/gmredi:
1873       Add Sub-Meso Eddies parameterisation from Baylor (for now, disabled with TAF),
1874       and test it in verification exp. "front_relax.bvp" (update output.bvp.txt)
1875    
1876    checkpoint63  (2011/07/11)
1877    o pkg/exch2:
1878     - rename+move: nTiles in W2_EXCH2_PARAMS.h --> exch2_nTiles in W2_EXCH2_TOPOLOGY.h
1879     - exch2 version of Cumul-Sum routine: S/R W2_SET_MAP_CUMSUM set up the
1880       (2*nTiles)x(nTiles) Cumul-Sum matrix and Master Proc collects all tiles X,Y
1881       increments, calculates Cumul-Sum @ tile origin and sends results to each tile.
1882    o pkg/diagnostics:
1883     - deal with pairs of post-processed diags which are computed together; in
1884       particular, re-order list of diags within 1 file to save 2nd computation.
1885     - add S/R to compute velocity stream-function (called after velocity-potential
1886       calculation) from divergence free transport -> new diagnostics "PsiVEL".
1887     - add parameter to select grid-point location where PsiVEL == 0.
1888    o eesupp/src:
1889       new S/R to calculate cumulated sum on tiled array, corner grid-cell location
1890       (specific S/R needed with exch2 topology - for now, just print an error msg)
1891    o pkg/shelfice
1892     - Implement friction velocity-dependent transfer coefficients following
1893       Holland and Jenkins, JPO, 1999
1894       Original code by M. Losch with small modifs.
1895       Enable with CPP option SHI_ALLOW_GAMMAFRICT
1896       and runtime flag SHELFICEuseGammaFrict
1897    o verification lab_sea & global_ocean.cs32x15:
1898     - use tools/xmakedepend (instead of cyrus_makedepend, in genmake_local):
1899       does not miss some dependencies (but is slower) and also works with many files
1900       (default makedepend limitation for AD built).
1901     - use cyrus_makedepend in adjustment.128x64x1 (so that it still tested).
1902    o pkg/diagnostics:
1903     - add run-time parameter "useMissingValue" (def=False) to fill land-point
1904        (i.e., where mask=0) with MissingValue ; used only in MNC output file.
1905       This replaces CPP-option DIAGNOSTICS_MISSING_VALUE.
1906     - Extend the use of "missing_value" setting from data.diagnostics for the case
1907       of counter-diagnostics (where fraction-weight is zero). This applies both to
1908       MNC and MDS output files.
1909    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F:
1910      - add 'a priori' cap of latent heat flux based on actual mass considerations
1911        when SEAICE_ADD_SUBLIMATION_TO_FWBUDGET is used in conjunction with the
1912        non-legacy seaice_solve4temp.
1913      - add diagnostic of the residual sublimation freshwater flux (the freshwater
1914        flux taken from the ocean if the total actual latent heat fluxes exceed
1915        the maximum)
1916      - remove the CPP switch around the *_FWbySublim unit change and move diagnostic
1917       fill for SIatmQnt, SIfwSubl, SIatmFW to the end of seaice_growth.F.
1918      - add diagnostic of the actual sublimation freshwater flux (that is 0. ifndef
1919       SEAICE_ADD_SUBLIMATION_TO_FWBUDGET) and of the latent heat flux (evap+sublim).
1920      - bug fix : frWtrAtm needs a_FWbySublim ifdef SEAICE_ADD_SUBLIMATION_TO_FWBUDGET.
1921      - bug fix : missing part to Martin's r_FWbySublim pathological case fix.
1922    o verification 1D_ocean_ice_column:
1923       made model domain truly 1x1x23 instead of 5x5x23 with only center cell (3,3,:) wet
1924       update results
1925    o pkg/diagnostics:
1926     - Implement setting of "Post-Processed" diagnostics (corresponding to gdiag(5)='P')
1927       which are not filled-up but computed from other diags ; In this case, the mate
1928       diag points to the primary (filled-up) diag to used for post processing.
1929     - Update Velocity-potential computation using post-processed diag framework.
1930     ==> Change the ordering of fields and time-periods in MDS output file
1931       when using periodic averaging: now writes one time record with the full set
1932       of fields for this time period, then the next time reccord (it used to be
1933       one field with the full set of time records then the next field).
1934         Note: this is now similar to NetCDF (MNC) output file. <==
1935    
1936    checkpoint62z (2011/06/21)
1937    o adjoint monitor:
1938     - Add adjoint monitor output for packages exf, seaice
1939       and update relevant testreport output
1940    o pkg/seaice:
1941     - re-order diags inits so that they appear in order in available_diagnostics.log
1942     - added diags: hsnow thermo. rates of change, area preceeding ridiging process,
1943       area/heff/hsnow preceeding thermodynamic growth/melt.
1944     - modified diag: SIdA; output actual effect, as the description states.
1945     - modified description: SIqneti, SIqneto, SIuheff, SIvheff, SIdAb*, HSNOW.
1946     - retired redundant diags: SIyneg, SIfice, SIsnwice, SIthdgrh.
1947       (SIyneg->SIdHbOCN; SIfice->SIdHbATC; SIsnwice->SIdHbFLO;
1948        and SIthdgrh->SIdHbOCN+SIdHbATC+SIdHbATO)
1949     - modified diags (2) : switch all SIdA*, SIdH*, SIdS* from delta to rates.
1950     - added diagnostics for seaice generic tracers (SItr*).
1951     - added SItrUnit and SItrNameLong run time param (for SItr* diags).
1952     - in diag names, replaced 'PrTh' abbrev. of 'preceeding thermo' with 'PT'.
1953     I. Fenty: 18-Jun-2011:
1954     Minor changes to seaice package:
1955     1) Retired old variables (A22, SEAICE_lhsublim, areaMax, areaMin, hiceMin) and
1956        added some new ones (SEAICE_area_reg, SEAICE_hice_reg, SEAICE_area_floor)
1957       - Differentiated "regularization variables" from "floor variables"
1958        * areaMin became SEAICE_area_reg (old A22) and SEAICE_area_floor
1959        * hiceMin became SEAICE_hice_reg (old hiceMin)
1960          (with _reg meaning regularization variable)
1961       - SEAICE_lhSublim becomes lhSublim, the sum of SEAICE_lhEvap and SEAICE_lhFusion
1962        so as to ensure energy conservation when going between phases
1963      - A22 was not used anywhere
1964     2) Changed regularization procedure for heffActual and hsnowActual to ensure
1965        well-boundedness and smooth adjoint in seaice_growth.F
1966     3) Fixed a bug where seaice_solve4temp would not recognize ice-free grid cells
1967        because the old regularization always set heffActual >= 0.05 cm
1968     4) Changed the model so that the default behavior is to put a small (10^-5) "floor"
1969        on AREA when HEFF > 0.
1970      - went from requiring ALLOW_PRECLUDE_INFINITESIMAL_AREA to be defined to
1971        requiring that DISABLE_AREA_FLOOR *not* be defined
1972     Affected verifications:
1973      - 1D_ocean_ice_column (output.txt output_adm.txt)
1974      - global_ocean.cs32x15 (output.seaice.txt output_adm.seaice.txt)
1975    o pkg/diagnostics:
1976      - move MNC code from diagnostics_out.F into new diagnostics_mnc_out.F (2 S/R).
1977      - rename S/R GETDIAG to DIAGNOSTICS_GET_DIAG and change type of 1rst argument
1978        (was _RL, now integer) with option = 0 to retrieve all levels.
1979      - add pieces of code to compute velocity potential at each level (new diagnostics
1980        PhiVEL, works only when UVELMASS & VVELMASS are also turned on);
1981        for now, using same params as CG2D (target-resisual, max Nb of iter ...).
1982      - fix few issues with counter diagnostics in diagnostics_setdiag.F &
1983        diagstats_setdiag.F (if diagnostic counter is itself a counter diag)
1984        and in diagnostics_fract_fill.F (do not need a valid pointer for the
1985        diagnostics counter-mate); check that definition of counter-diagnostic
1986        includes a valid counter-mate (in diagnostics_set_levels.F).
1987    o model/src (rStar):
1988      - add rStar scaling factor in diags_phi_hyd.F (similar to calc_grad_phi_hyd.F);
1989        affect solution only if z* with full pressure in EOS;
1990        update output of test-exp global_ocean.90x40x15.
1991    o pkg/seaice:
1992      - introduce siEps=1e-5 parameter
1993      - use areaMax in AREA update (part 4), consistent with ridging step (part 2.5).
1994      - re-organize SEAICE_ADD_SUBLIMATION_TO_FWBUDGET code.
1995      - introduce ALLOW_SITRACER and seaice_tracer_phys.F to handle generic seaice tracer.
1996        For now it covers, and was tested for, ice salinity and age (attached to HEFF),
1997        as well as ice cover age and ridging index (attached to AREA).
1998        For now the run time parameters (in data.seaice/SEAICE_PARM03) are
1999        SItrName (e.g. 'age') and SItrMate ('HEFF', which is the default, or 'AREA').
2000        Up to SItrMaxNum=3 tracers can be used simultaneously.
2001    o pkg/salt_plume:
2002      -introduce SPsalFRAC run time parameter that sets the fraction of the
2003       salt by-product of ice growth (SPsalFRAC*(1-SIsalFRAC)*salt typically)
2004       that gets vertically redistributed (fluxed down) by pkg/salt_plume.
2005    o model debug options:
2006      - Switch reading of debugMode from S/R INI_PARMS (parameter file "data", stored
2007        in PARAMS.h) to S/R EESET_PARMS (parameter file "eedata", stored in EEPARAMS.h).
2008      - Refine debug-msg printing selection (3 new levels):
2009        debugMode  : controls printing of debug messages (sequence of S/R calls).
2010        debugLevel : controls printing of algorithm-relevant auxiliary/debug messages
2011         debLevZero =  0 ; /* level of disabled aux. msg printing */
2012         debLevA =  1 ; /* level of minimum  aux. msg printing */
2013         debLevB =  2 ; /* level of low aux. print (report read-file opening)*/
2014         debLevC =  3 ; /* level of moderate debug prt (most pkgs debug msg) */
2015         debLevD =  4 ; /* level of enhanced debug prt (add DEBUG_STATS prt) */
2016         debLevE =  5 ; /* level of extensive debug printing */
2017        New debugLevel default: with default debugMode value (=F),
2018          = 2 (debLevB) or = 1 (debLevA) in case ALLOW_AUTODIFF is defined.;
2019          and if debugMode=T, default debugLevel = 4 (debLevD).
2020        Relation with previous settings:
2021         debLevB (=2) corresponds to former debLevA (=1)
2022         debLevD (=4) corresponds to former debLevB (=2)
2023        Note:
2024         a) if debugLevel=0, skip WRITE_GRID call when nIter0 > 0 (same as before);
2025         b) default debugLevel=1 is convenient in AD runs (avoid many file opening msgs);
2026            to recover previous default, set debugLevel=2 (e.g. AD-test hs94.1x64x5)
2027      - Add new parameter (printResidualFreq, read from PARM02 namelist) to print
2028        detailed CG solvers convergence; off (=0) by default, except if debugLevel=5.
2029    o pkg/obcs:
2030      - change OBCSfixTopo default from True to False (should not change the results);
2031        keep OBCSfixTopo=T in verification-exp. seaice_obcs.
2032    o pkg/thsice:
2033      - fix bug in thsice_calc_thickn.F (was introduced in version 1.18) in
2034        2nd layer seaice sublimation (unlikely to happen)
2035      - use Interior mask for OBCS in thsice_advection.F (similar to what is
2036        done in gad_advection & seaice_advection).
2037    o adjoint:
2038      bug fix spotted by Gael Forget:
2039      seaice_advection and thsice_advection still had
2040      legacy CPP options to avoid CS corner updates for adjoint
2041    o pkg/seaice:
2042      => Change some of the defaults (2011/05/29):
2043         - change SEAICEuseFluxForm default (from False to True)
2044         - change DIFF1 default (from 0.004 m/s to 0. m/s)
2045         And print warnings if DIFF1 is not set in data.seaice and centered
2046          avection scheme is used without any diffusion.
2047      also:
2048      - fix seaice_diffusion calls in default AdvScheme part of seaice_advdiff.F;
2049      - set SEAICEdiffKh[] default in the same way as SEAICEadvSch[]
2050      - stop if DIFF1<>0 with SEAICEadvScheme <> 2, if DIFF1<>0 with any
2051        other non-zero SEAICEdiffKh[] diffusivity, if SEAICEadvSalt=T with
2052        #undef SEAICE_VARIABLE_SALINITY, if SEAICEadvAge=T with #undef SEAICE_AGE.
2053      update results of test exp.:
2054         lab_sea: output.fd (switch to AdvScheme=33 with diffKh=20)
2055             output.hb87, output_adm.evp (SEAICEuseFluxForm=T and diffKh=200)
2056             output_adm.noseaicedyn (SEAICEuseFluxForm=T)
2057         offline_exf_seaice: output.seaicetd, output_adm (SEAICEuseFluxForm=T)
2058         seaice_obcs: output (SEAICEuseFluxForm=T)
2059      and prescribe old default for SEAICEuseFluxForm (=F) and DIFF1 (=0.004)
2060          for standard fwd & AD lab_sea tests (to keep the same output).
2061    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F:
2062      - use Ian Fenty's capping formulas for actual ice
2063      thickness thoughout EVOLUTION branch.
2064      - put treatment pathological case #2) in CPP brackets
2065      (ALLOW_AVOID_INFINITESIMAL_AREA, undef by default).
2066      - update global_ocean.cs32x15 and 1D_ocean_ice_colum results accordingly.
2067    o pkg/seaice:
2068      - seaice_diffusion.F : remove the min(DX,DY) factor permanently;
2069      pass the Laplacian diffusivity (in m^2/s) diffKh as a parameter;
2070      also pass fac as a param, which can be 1. (to update the tendency
2071      field) or the time step (to update the field itself).
2072      - seaice_advdiff.F: for multidim, call seaice_diffusion with
2073      e.g. SEAICEdiffKhHeff and with fac=1; for single-dim, call
2074      seaice_diffusion with e.g. SEAICEdiffKhHeff and with fac=time step.
2075      - SEAICE_PARAMS.h, seaice_readparms.F, seaice_check.F :
2076      hooks to handle SEAICEdiffKhHeff, SEAICEdiffKhArea, etc.
2077    o pkg/seaice:
2078      diffusion with centered advection scheme (diffus.F & advect.F):
2079      - simplify S/R DIFFUS (put deltaT & DIFF1 factor outside, move EXCH outside)
2080        to just compute the laplacian of input-field.
2081      - unroll k loop (harmonic,biharmonic diff) in advect.F to save 1 exch call.
2082      - fix flux-form version in diffus.F to conserve tracer.
2083      update output of lab_sea.fd & lab_sea.hb87 (1rst set of modif affects
2084       machine truncation) and lab_sea.salt_plume (conservative flux-form modif)
2085    
2086    checkpoint62y (2011/05/26)
2087    o pkg/seaice:
2088     - seaice_growth.F : in EVOLUTION branch, always include
2089       a_QSWbyATM_cover in qnet (as it should be).
2090     - verification/global_ocean.cs32x15 : update results accordingly
2091       (output.seaice.txt output_adm.seaice.txt).
2092    o pkg/seaice + obcs:
2093     - use maskInW & maskInS in multi-dim advection and biharmonic diffusion:
2094       equivalent of assuming no tracer gradient outside the OB region.
2095       update output of seaice_obcs (uses DIFF1 <>0 => biharmonic diffusion)
2096     - remove calls to OBCS_COPY_TRACER after EXCH calls (no longer needed
2097       after changes above);
2098     - obcs+seaice cleaning: apply seaice-tracer OB values to tracer field
2099       only at OB location (instead of over a band of OLx width).
2100    o pkg/seaice:
2101     - fix wrong indices in old (non Flux-Form) diffusion default S/R diffus.F
2102       (dxG(I+1, ...) changed to dxG(I, ...), no impact on Lat-Lon grid)
2103    o pkg/obcs:
2104      - split header file "OBCS.h" into 4 separated files:
2105        OBCS_PARAMS.h, OBCS_GRID.h, OBCS_FIELDS.h & OBCS_SEAICE.h
2106       Note: OBCS_PARAMS.h & OBCS_GRID.h can be included without OBCS_OPTIONS.h
2107         (contain no conditional statement which depends on OBCS options).
2108      - move "useOBCSYearlyFields" from "data.obcs" (hold in OBCS_PARAMS.h)
2109        to parameter file "data.exf", namelist EXF_NML_OBCS (in EXF_PARAM.h).
2110    o ctrl, cost, grdchk & autodiff pkgs:
2111      - make options file more standard (like other {PKG}_OPTIONS.h file but
2112        with AD_CONFIG.h); clean-up some of the included header files.
2113    o pkg/obcs:
2114      - do not mask tracer when applying OB (tracer == 0 could generate problems)
2115      - apply tracer OB values to tracer field only at OB location (instead of
2116        over a band of OLx width)
2117      - clean-up obcs_apply_w.F & obcs_apply_eta.F (since less calls to these S/R)
2118      - remove OBCS_MULTIDIM_OLD_VERSION code in gad_advection.F and remove
2119        obcs_apply_tloc.F & obcs_apply_sloc.F
2120    o obcs in model/src:
2121      - call OBCS_APPLY_W only if NonHydrostatic.
2122      - call OBCS_APPLY_ETA only if NonLinFreeSurf.
2123      - reset dEtaHdt and wVel to zero outside OB interior region ;
2124      - leave tracer unchanged outside OB interior region: This has no effect
2125        on the solution but just to prevent unrealistic tracer value outside OB.
2126      - zero out velocity outside OB interior region: This has no effect on
2127        the solution but just to prevent unrealistic velocity outside OB.
2128    o obcs and non-lin free-surf:
2129       move call to OBCS_APPLY_R_STAR from update_r_star.F to calc_r_star.F
2130       and call to OBCS_APPLY_SURF_DR from update_surf_dr.F to calc_surf_dr.F
2131       + add argument "etaFld" to OBCS_APPLY_R_STAR & OBCS_APPLY_SURF_DR:
2132       this fixes missing EXCH + get consistent eta OB value (+ fix restart).
2133       update results of test-exp. exp4(nlfs).
2134    o exp4 (nlfs) test-exp:
2135       use OBC for Eta at Western & Eastern OB (to test prescribing Eta
2136       with NonLin-FreeSurf); update output.nlfs.txt
2137    o obcs and 2d/3d solver norm:
2138       use interior masks (maskInC) to cancel out cg2d & cg3d matrix coeff at OB
2139       and outside OB interior region (will allow to place OB further inside the
2140       domain). Depending on the domain, can affects cg2d-Norm (previous
2141       cancellation outside OB was only partial), e.g. in exp4 & obcs_ctrl,
2142       and cg3d-Norm (previous Norm was computed before canceling OB terms),
2143       e.g. in tutorial_plume_on_slope.
2144      - update output of exp.: exp4 (x2), obcs_ctrl and tutorial_plume_on_slope.
2145    o pkg rbcs:
2146      - split RBCS.h into 3 files: RBCS_SIZE.h, RBCS_PARAMS.h & RBCS_FIELDS.h
2147      - add capability to apply relaxation to horizontal velocity uVel & vVel.
2148    o pkg/grdchk: add gradient check for control variable xx_shifwflx
2149    o pkg/shelfice/shelfice_init_fixed.F
2150      fix CPP-flag combinations
2151    o pkg/seaice: Merge iceage code of Pierre Rampal
2152      * update/change/correct ice age calculations
2153      * add age updates for pathological cases
2154      Probably needs more testing...
2155    
2156    checkpoint62x (2011/05/13)
2157    o pkg/mom_vecinv:
2158       high-order vorticity scheme: use interior masks (maskInW & S)
2159       to zero-out (outside OB) gradient of vorticity.
2160    o verification exp.:
2161       turn on "useEnergyConservingCoriolis" (better discretisation) in exp.
2162       hs94.128x64x5 and seaice_obcs ; update results.
2163    o pkg/obcs:
2164      fix bug in OBeta for YZ sections in obcs_exf_load.F
2165    o pkg/ctrl, pkg/shelfice, and optim:
2166      - add new control variable xx_shifwflx (fresh water flux underneath ice
2167        shelves). This is almost as tedious as obcs-ctrl, because the
2168        variables needs its own mask.
2169      - add a cost function term that penalizes the deviation of xx_shifwflx
2170        from the first guess (zero) in analogy to other control variables
2171    o pkg/shelfice:
2172      - start basic adjoint
2173    o pkg/ctrl:
2174      - remove extra 2D field "for good measure" when initializing in
2175        ctrl_set_globfld_[xy/xz/yz].F
2176      - replace hard coded precision 32 (a bug) in ctrl_map_ini_gen by ctrlprec
2177      - improve error messages in ctrl_set_unpack_*
2178    o OBC implementation in momentum:
2179       use interior masks (maskInC,W & S) in momentum S/R:
2180       - multiply divergence, tension and some del^i.u or del^j.v by maskInC
2181       - multiply del2u,del2v by maskInW/S (biharmonic viscosity)
2182       - multiply horiz. grad of vorticity by maskInW/S (in Leith scheme)
2183       - multiply gradient of wVel by maskInW/S in del2w calculation (NonHyd)
2184       Motivation: fix/clean implementation of OBC with biharmonic-viscosity
2185        (and also with Leith/Smagorinsky harmonic-viscosity).
2186       Update output of experiment dome and exp4 (+nlfs).
2187    o exp4 test-exp:
2188      - turn on: nonHydrostatic, exactConserv, viscA4 (with momDissip_In_AB=F)
2189        and prescribe time-varying OB (without pkg/exf) for zonal-velocity
2190        at Western & Eastern Boundaries (+/- 1 per-cent); Also prescribe
2191        time-varying OB at Western-side for wVel (NonHyd); update output.
2192      - add secondary set-up (.nlfs) using NonLin FreeSurf (z*) + mom_vecinv
2193        and biharmonic-viscosity ; also use prescribed time varying OB.
2194    o pkg/obcs:
2195      fix bug in OBWeta,OBWeta indices in obcs_apply_r_star.F
2196    o model/src:
2197      - fix startTime setting when baseTime<>0 & nIter0=0 are specified ;
2198      - initialise startTime & nIter0 with unlikely values: allows to set one
2199        from the other without ambiguity.
2200    o seaice_obcs test-exp.:
2201      add small diffK4T,S to test biharmonic diffusivity with OBCS ; update output.
2202    o pkg/obcs:
2203      - remove calls to OBCS_COPY_TRACER after EXCH for T,S & pTracer:
2204        no longer needed with maskInC,W,S in pkg/generic_advdiff.
2205    o pkg/seaice:
2206      - retired SEAICE_SALINITY and SEAICE_salinity in favor of
2207        SEAICE_VARIABLE_SALINITY and SIsalFRAC, respectively.
2208      - fixed bug in the initialization of sea ice salinity variable HSALT
2209        in seaice_init_varia.F  (removed dependence on ICE2WATR)
2210    o fizhi-cs test exp.:
2211       switch reference output convention for these 2 non-standard test-exp,
2212        from: pgi  6.1-5 on faulks (FC.6, -of linux_ia32_pgf77+authors_fc5)
2213          to: ifort 11.1 on baudelaire (FC.13, -of linux_amd64_ifort11)
2214       reason: faulks might get retired soon and pkg/fizhi has still Pb with gfortran
2215    o model/inc:
2216      - change type of PmEpR array (from _RS to _RL) to fix restart (with "-use_r4")
2217        of exp. global_ocean.90x40x15 (Suncronous time-stepping + Real-FW + NonLin-FS)
2218    o pkg/seaice:
2219      - fix calculation of saltFlux and saltPlumeFlux when using SEAICE_SALINITY
2220    o verification/lab_sea, 1D_ocean_ice_column, seaice_obcs, global_ocean.cs32x15
2221      - updated output*.txt files due to bug fixes in salt, saltPlumeFlux,
2222        and initial HSALT
2223    
2224    checkpoint62w (2011/04/26)
2225    o pkg/mom_fluxform:
2226      - fix calculation of del2u & del2v (no-slip BC) when using Non-Lin Free-Surf.
2227      - use parameter "sideDragFactor" in no-slip BC side-drag part.
2228      - update output of exp. global_ocean.90x40x15
2229    o pkg/mom_vecinv:
2230      mask del2u & del2v (no effect on results, but cleaner & closer to mom_fluxform)
2231    o update seaice exp.:
2232      use more consistent parameter values (remove "backward compatability only":
2233       ICE2WATR, SEAICE_lhSublim, SEAICE_cpAir, SEAICE_rhoAir + set rhoConstFresh)
2234      related to thermodynamics seaice. Update output (fwd+AD) of exp.:
2235       1D_ocean_ice_column (x2), lab_sea (x8), ioffline_exf_seaice (x2) & seaice_obcs
2236    o update test-exp global_ocean.90x40x15:
2237      o use default CD_CODE_OPTIONS file (Adams-Bashforth on CD Mom & Coriolis).
2238      o increase Overlap size from 2 to 3 (to allow to test bi-harmonic Visc.)
2239      o new pickup-files from a 100.yr run with pkg/down_slope (input.dwnslp params)
2240      o turn on zStar & viscA4 in standard set-up (dir input/)
2241        and update output files: output.txt & output.dwnslp.txt
2242    o new AD-test experiment: obcs_ctrl
2243      (From Matt MITgcm_Contrib/SOSE/BoxAdj) to test OBCS as control vector.
2244    o pkg/dic:
2245      fix two bugs in handling water vapour pressure in carbonate chemistry
2246      and air-sea fluxes. Found by Val Bennington and Galen McKinley
2247      (add DIC Option = WATERVAP_BUG to recover old results)
2248      update output of tutorial_global_oce_biogeo (fwd+AD) & tutorial_dic_adjoffline
2249    o adding allowInteriorFreezing option to check for water below freezing point
2250      at depth and bring the negative heat anomaly to the surface level
2251    o pkgs _fields_load:
2252      - extend GET_PERIODIC_INTERVAL to deal with non-periodic case (from pkg/rbcs)
2253      - use new S/R GET_PERIODIC_INTERVAL in pkgs:
2254        bulk_force, cheapaml, cfc, dic, obcs (+ ctrl/ctrl_get_gen_rec), offline and
2255        rbcs to get interpolation weights and time reccord number.
2256      - fix multi-threading in aim_fields_load.F
2257      - apply EXCH to temp arrays [0,1] after reading in dic_fields_load.F
2258    o external_fields_load:
2259      new S/R GET_PERIODIC_INTERVAL to calculate which time-record (and linear
2260       interpolation weights) to use in a periodic time-series ; do not divide by
2261       time-step to convert to integer:
2262       - this fixes case where externForcingPeriod is not multiple of time-step
2263          (Thanks to Christopher L. Wolfe)
2264       - this fixes case where externForcingPeriod is an odd multiple of time-step
2265         (was wrong by half of time-step); update results of tutorial_global_oce_in_p.
2266      store index of time-record which is currently loaded:
2267       - works without any assumption on sequence of calls to EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD ;
2268       - needed for the adjoint but not yet used because of extensive recomputations;
2269         (to be fixed soon)

2272    o verification/1D_ocean_ice_column added to test Ian Fenty's
2273      pkg/seaice_growth.F modifications for improving sea ice code differentiability
2274    o update output of exp4, internal_wave, seaice_obcs, tutorial_plume_on_slope
2275      (new velocity statistics after changing maskInW & maskInS definition)
2276    o pkg/generic_advdiff with OBCS:
2277      use maksInW & maskInS in advective flux and in biharmonic diffusion calculation:
2278      equivalent to assumption of no tracer gradient outside the OB region.
2279      This will affect the results if using obcs+biharmonic diffusion.
2280      update output_adm.txt of experiment bottom_ctrl_5x5 (not expected since no obc)
2281    o pkg/obcs:
2282      change definition of maskInW & maskInS: leave OB edges inside (maskIn=1)
2283      (e.g., maskInW(OB_Ie)=1 ) so that velocity normal-component at OB is still
2284      in Interior region. No impact on solution but affects Velocity monitor stats.
2285    o pkg/ptracers (adjoint)
2286      New option AUTODIFF_PTRACERS_SPLIT_FILES for writing separate
2287      tape file for each tracer
2288    o model/inc/src and pkg/autodiff: add parameters that allow to turn
2289      of parts of the adjoint code at run time. For now, there are only
2290      useKPPinAdMode, useGMrediInAdMode, and useSEAICEinAdMode. These
2291      parameters are set in data.pkg.
2292      This is the lazy coward's version of doing this, but still useful for
2293      debugging. In order to do it right, everything needs to be moved to
2294      pkg/autodiff.
2295    o pkg/autodiff: fix global_sum_tile_ad.F by resetting adsumPhi at
2296      the end; this fixes the adjoint balancing code for open boundaries.
2297    o pkg/ctrl:
2298      - change behavior of xx_${varname}period to be analogous to exf-conventions:
2299        xx_${varname}period =   0.,  means time-independent control part
2300        xx_${varname}period = -12., means one-year-periodic monthly control part
2301      - introduce helper routine ctrl_init_rec (part of ctrl_init.F) to
2302        clean up ctrl_init a little, remove unused variables
2303      - ctrl_init: fixed the handling of the start/endrec for obcs-variables
2304      - move "call cal_GetMonthsRec" from s/r ctrl_get_gen to s/r ctrl_get_gen_rec
2305    
2306    checkpoint62u (2011/03/15)
2307    o model/src:
2308      - for the adjoint, change NonLin-FreeSurf initialisation sequence: fill-in
2309        h0Fac from INITIALISE_FIXED and reset hFac to h0Fac in INITIALISE_VARIA ;
2310      - in initialise_varia.F (except for ALLOW_DEPTH_CONTROL) remove 2nd call to
2311        INI_DEPTHS, INI_MASKS_ETC & INI_LINEAR_PHISURF.
2312    o pkg/ctrl/obcs/ecco:
2313      - remove obsolete, unused, and partially broken code:
2314        ctrl_obcsvol/ctrl_obcsbal/ctrl_volflux and code within
2315        ALLOW_CTRL_OBCS_BALANCE
2316      - put a stop statement into ecco/cost_obcsvol.F, but also add
2317        cost_obcsvol to ecco_ad_diff.list
2318    o pkg/ecco: fix counting cost function contributions for obcs (code
2319      by Matt M.) and diffkr for diagnostics
2320    o pkg/ecco, pkg/ctrl, pkg/grdchk:
2321      add cost penalty terms for initial uvel, vvel, eta controls
2322      and I/O for prior error files
2323    o pkg/mdsio:
2324       move mds_check4file.F from eesupp/src to mdsio_check4file.F ; add option
2325       (new argument) to check for tiled file in mdsioLocalDir : this fix the
2326       restart from pickup_som , pickup_dic (& dic_co2atm) with mdsioLocalDir.
2327    o pkg/ctrl:
2328     - ctrl_obcsbal.F, ctrl_obcsvol.F: replace last calls of ctrl_getrec by
2329       ctrl_get_gen_rec, put a stop statement into ctrl_getrec. Remove
2330       unused and superfluous variables
2331     - ctrl_get_gen_rec.F: catch the case of xx_genperiod=0.
