4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o Refresh tutorial_global_oce_biogeo, notably:
8      - change bathymetry (put back seamounts in ACC, use hFacs)
9      - change EOS (POLY3 --> JMD95Z)
10      - use Bryan-Lewis vertical diffusivity
11      - use multidimensional advection
12      - remove old virtual virtual in dic pkg, now done through ptracer pkg
13      - change a couple of parameters in dic pkg
14    o pkg/ctrl: change formula in adctrl_bound.F and add a parameter to ctrl_map_ini_gen.F
15    o pkg/obcs: change default to OBCSfixTopo = .true.,
16      - set OBCSfixTopo=.false. in exp4/input/data.obcs to reproduce old result
17      - replace "debugMode" with "debugLevel .GE. debLevB"
18    o implementation of TAF directives for gchem,cfc,dic
19    o remove "exp5" (replaced by tutorial_deep_convection).
20    o pkg/obcs: add code to fix topography gradients normal to open boundaries;
21      this requires computing the index fields OB_Jn/Js/Ie/Iw in obcs_readparms;
22      the code can be turned on by setting OBCSfixTopo = .true. in data.obcs
23      --> changes results in exp4, seaice_obcs
24    o tutorial_deep_convection :
25      update the set-up and increase resolution and domain size ; start
26      from pseudo initial conditions = output at t=120mn in order to see
27      something happening when running testreport.
28    o pkg/seaice: add os7mp as an advection scheme
29                  add check for advection schemes
30                  add a flag for restoring T and S underneath sea ice
31    o pkg/my82: add netcdf-support and diagnostics
32    o thsice pkg:
33      - Now hsMax limits snow height by turning it into ice following
34        flooding scheme (and now conserving energy)
35      - Slight rewriting of the formula in thsice_calc_thick.F
36      - Parameter rhowi eliminated to be replaced by floodFac = (rhosw-rhoi)/rhos
37      --> changes results of global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn and global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice
38    
39    checkpoint59p
40    o gchem / dic / cfc :
41      - add useDIC, useCFC , read from "data.gchem" (& hold in GCHEM.h);
42      - add new parameter files: "data.dic" & "data.cfc" ;
43      - various re-arrangement in initialisation & header file ;
44      - fix tutorial_global_oce_biogeo for multi-threaded test.
45    o pkg/dic: test for "pickup_dic" file when restarting ;
46      if no pickup-file, can restart with a re-initialised pH (same as it did
47      before) providing pickupStrictlyMatch is set to False.
48    o change argument list of S/R PTRACERS_WRITE_PICKUP & MYPACKAGE_WRITE_PICKUP
49      + fix call to S/R GGL90_WRITE_PICKUP & DIC_WRITE_PICKUP
50    o add a "warning" (to Error msg file) when an Active Tracer is not using AB-2
51      and staggerTimeStep is off (needed for stability of Internal-wave dynamics).
52    o move out of PARAMS.h & data the last pieces of old-ptracer code: tauTr1ClimRelax,
53     & lambdaTr1ClimRelax ; put those 2 params in PTRACERS_PARAMS.h & data.ptracers
54       (note: not clear to me what lambdaTr1ClimRelax is still used for ...)
55    o pkg/mom_vecinv: - new parameter "selectVortScheme" to select which
56       scheme to use for vorticty-term ;
57     - compute upwindVorticity=T case within mom_vi_u/v_coriolis_c4.F
58       (with default selectVortScheme, return to original discretisation)
59     - remove weird combination (e.g.: upwindVorticity & highOrderVorticity)
60    o pkg/seaice: add a line to the summary to indicate grid type (B/C)
61    o in mom_calc_visc, fix average value of viscAh_W & viscA4_W next to the
62      bottom ; only used with variable horizontal viscosity and non-hydrostatic.
63      also fix diagnostics VISCAHW & VISCA4W.
64    
65    checkpoint59o
66    o dome/code/obcs_calc.F: avoid division by zero (detected using gfortran).
67    o change the loop ordering in most gad_*_adv_x.F to improve vectorization:
68      move a few statemens out the main loop into separate loops
69    o pkg/shelfice:
70      - sort out freshwater flux; convert freshwater fluxes to mass fluxes
71        (kg/m^2/s), does not break tests, because in verification/isomip,
72        rhoConstFresh=rhoConst (by accident)
73      - rearrange computation of tLoc, sLoc, pLoc to make code more efficient
74      - move S/R find_rho_scalar, pkg/ecco/sw_ptmp.F, pkg/ecco/sw_adtg.F into
75        new file model/src/seawater.F, so that they are available for all pkgs.
76      - convert potential temperature into in-situ temperature. This changes the
77        isomip tests => update tests
78    o add a flag writePickupAtEnd (default=true) to be able to suppress
79      writing a pickup at the last timestep
80    o tools/mpack-1.6 :
81      - disable automake (not working) and autoconf (not needed).
82      - update to version 1.6.4 which fix MD5 code on some 64 bits platforms
83        also cleaner with much less compilation warnings.
84    o pkg/profiles:
85      rename profiles_interp_mean_genericgrid as profiles_interp_mean_gg
86      (for "less than 32 characters name" compiler requirement)
87    o pkg/obcs and pkg/exf: added capability to specify seaice open boundary
88      conditions that have a different sampling frequency than S/T/U/V obcs
89    o pkg/diagnostics (stats-diags):
90      - fix global Min/Max in case 1 processor get only empty tiles
91    o genmake2: replace (4 times)
92         make genmake_tc_1.o >> genmake_warnings 2>&1
93      with
94         COMM="$CC $CFLAGS -c genmake_tc_1.c"
95         echo $COMM >> genmake_warnings
96         $COMM >> genmake_warnings 2>&1
97      to make genmake2 always see the value of CC as specified in the optfile.
98    o generic_advdiff: - prather advection scheme (SOM) coded for CS-grid.
99      - add diagnostics for 1srt & 2nd Order moments and sub-grid variance.
100      - modify verification advect_cs test to test SOM-advection on CS-grid.
101    o pkg/ctrl:
102      - Rewrite of ctrl_map_ini_ecco.F,
103        introducing a generic routine (ctrl_map_ini_gen.F).
104      - Modification of ctrl_bound/adctrl_bound handling control vector bounds.
105    
106    checkpoint59n
107    o pkg/diagnostics: for large number of diagnostics, store diagnostic mate
108      number in dedicate array "hdiag":
109      - new version of S/R DIAGNOSTICS_ADD2LIST : DIAGNOSTICS_ADDTOLIST
110        with 1 more argument (mate number); modify old version DIAGNOSTICS_ADD2LIST.
111      - many small changes (integer format) for large number of diagnostics
112      - start to use DIAGNOSTICS_ADDTOLIST (necessary for diagnostics with
113        a counter mate) in pkg diagnostics, ptracers, thsice & aim_v23.
114    o add parameter rotateGrid and Euler angles EulerPhi/Theta/Psi. For
115      usingSphericalGrid, this allows to define the rotated grid coordinates
116      via phiMin/thetaMin/dxSpacing/dySpacing, etc., but then re-compute the
117      geographical coordinates according to the inverse of the rotation defined
118      by the Euler angles, so that Coriolis parameter and online-interpolation by
119      exf works with the geographical coordinates on XC/YC/XG/YG.
120      Naturally, this feature does not work with all packages, so some
121      combinations are prohibited in config_summary (flt, flt_zonal, ecco,
122      profiles), because there the coordinates are assumed to be regular
123      spherical grid coordinates.
124    o pkg/gmredi,ctrl,ecco,autodiff,grdchk and model/src,inc:
125      - introduce isopycnal diffusion coefficient control.
126    o tools/adjoint_options:
127      - additional control vector components.
128    o pkg/mnc: have mnc create marginally meaning full coordinate variables
129      (that is the grid indices) if usingCurvilinearGrid and NOT EXCH2
130    o pkg/mypackage:
131      - add example of read/write pickup for state-var ;
132      - add entry points to the main code for state-vars diags & write-pickup.
133    o pkg/exf: rewrite of exf_getffieldrec.F to properly deal with year
134      transitions for useExfYearlyFields
135      - add new subroutine that determines the file to read from for
136        use*YearlyFields = .TRUE. and .FALSE.
137      - add a verification experiment to global_with_exf that tests
138        useExfYearlyFields with USE_EXF_INTERPOLATION defined
139    o pkg/obcs/exf: add useOBCSYearlyFields (=.FALSE.) to obcs with exf in
140      analogy to useExfYearlyFields; rearrange obcs_prescribe_read: two new
141      subroutines (which could be generated from a template, because they are
142      almost identical), for now they are included in obcs_prescribe_read.F for
143      simplicity
144    o pkg/exf:
145      - add a little more diagnostic to exf_interp_read (in analogy to
146        mds_read_field, can be turned off with debugLevel < debugLevA=1)
147      - improve vectorizability of exf_interp for TARGET_NEC_SX, makes code
148        ugly but fast by unrolling short inner loops, inserting a unroll=8
149        directive in routine lagran, and splitting a loop and making do while the
150        outermost loop (the latter requires the intoduction of index arrays)
151    o pkg/obcs: replace obcs_apply_area/heff/hsalt/hsnow with obcs_apply_seaice
152    o pkg/seaice: moved DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE from seaice_model to seaice_dynsolver
153      http://forge.csail.mit.edu/pipermail/mitgcm-devel/2008-January/003173.html
154    o verification/seaice_obcs: updated for restart test and latest options
155    o pkg/seaice: add a new flag SEAICEuseTEM to use a slightly different
156      ice rheology (so-called truncated ellipse, that gets rid of tensile stress);
157      for now this is only available for the C-grid code and also within
158      #ifdef SEAICE_ALLOW_TEM, because this option may slow down the EVP code
159    
160    checkpoint59m
161    o pkg/seaice: use different time constant for melting (SEAICE_gamma_t)
162      and freezing (SEAICE_gamma_t_frz) ice due to mixed layer temperature
163    o gad_som : fix flux output (& diagnostics) to have same units as other  
164      advection scheme fluxes (was previously multiplied by deltaT).  
165    o added verification/seaice_obcs both to test seaice open boundaries
166      and to provide an example matlab scrpt for generating them
167    o added verification/lab_sea/input.salt_plume for testing pkg/salt_plume
168    o pkg/salt_plume: clean up salt_plume_frac.F to
169      remove redundancy in PlumeMethod 1 and 4
170    o pkg/kpp: added saltplume diagnostics
171    o pkg/obcs and pkg/seaice:
172      - do not set uice and vice to zero when OB*icefile are unspecified
173      - OBCS_SEAICE_AVOID_CONVERGENCE is undefined by default
174      - moved seaice tracer obcs after call to seaice_growth
175    o pkg/salt_plume: added various options for salt plume depth
176      criterion and for vertical distribution of the salt
177    
178    checkpoint59l
179    o pkg/ptracers: new version of ptracers pickup:
180      read meta file and write only fields which are needed to restart.
181      ( same logic as main pickup file ; also using pickupStrictlyMatch )
182    o pkg/seaice:
183      - add timescale for melting due to warm mixed layer as a means of
184        setting SEAICE_availHeatFrac more conveniently
185      - add a CPP-flag/runtime parameter check for flooding algorithm
186      - reformulated availHeat in seaice_growth.F to be independent of AREA
187    o change units attribute of EmPmR netcdf variables to kg/m^2/s to reflect recent
188      unit changes
189    o pkg/obcs: added OBCS_SEAICE_AVOID_CONVERGENCE constraint
190    o cg2d.F: add 3 compiler directives that speed up this routine by 30% on a NEC
191      SX vector computer.
192    o pkg/seaice:
193      - removed SEAICE_FFIELDS.h and seaice_get_forcing.F
194        seaice forcing fields can now be read only through pkg/exf
195      - removed some unused halos
196    o no longer write pickup from THE_MODEL_MAIN but always from FORWARD_STEP
197    o pkg/exf: added useRelativeWind EXF_PARAM.h option for subtracting U/VVEL
198      or U/VICE from U/VWIND before computing U/VSTRESS
199    
200    checkpoint59k
201    o pkg/seaice: ICE2WATR=SEAICE_rhoIce/rhoConst for consistency between
202      dynamics and thermodynamics. Set ICE2WATR=0.92 to reproduce older results.
203    o fix un-initialised variable problem (in mom_vecinv & shap_filt):
204      all experiments pass when compile with un-initialised var. checking option.
205    o added pkg/salt_plume
206    o script to test restart (for now, in MITgcm_contrib/jmc_script)
207    o pkg/seaice: new read/write pickup version.
208      read meta file and write only fields which are needed to restart.
209      ( same logic as main pickup file ; also using pickupStrictlyMatch )
210    o pkg/seaice: fix bug in seaice_ocean_stress (call of seaice_calc_strainrates)
211    o lab_sea.hb87: modify the domain & update output.hb87.txt :
212      lat-long grid & no-slip BC in seaice-dynamics produce different sigma12
213      at j=1 & j=Ny+1 : this case is not treated correctly in the restart
214      process. Fixed here by closing the domain at the Northern boundary.
215    o pkg/rw: cleaning-up: call directly new MDSIO S/R MDS_READ/WRITE_FIELD.
216    o pkg/mdsio: add new arguments to MDS_READ/WRITE_FIELD for reading/writing
217      a set of consecutive levels in/from a 3-D array.
218    o pkg/ptracers:
219      use a 2 characters string ioLabel to identify tracer (if more than 99 tracers).
220      to-do: fix pkg/diagnostics when large number of diagnostics are defined.
221    
222    checkpoint59j
223    o in pkgs: dic, obcs, offline, rbcs:
224      standard way to compute coeff. for time interpolation between 2 time reccords
225      which retains full precision (& make results less dependent on compiler).
226      update output of exp: tutorial_cfc_offline & tutorial_global_oce_biogeo.
227    o pkg/cfc: if compiled with exf and seaice, cfc now can use fields from those
228      packages instead of reading ice cover and wind speed separately
229    o split PTRACERS.h in 2 header files: PTRACERS_FIELDS.h & PTRACERS_PARAMS.h
230     (keep a temporary version of PTRACERS.h in verification/OpenAD/code_ad_openad
231      to allow to compile customized code before the update)
232    o cleaning-up:
233      - fix CPP instruction syntax in pkg/obcs
234      - replace (some) call to MDSIO S/R with call to RW interface S/R ; and
235        add #ifdef ALLOW_MDSIO elsewhere (allows to compile without pkg/mdsio)
236      - fix some threads issue in IO parts.
237    o pkg/dic:
238      - add tons of "_d 0" (--> much better testreports !)
239       and then update outputs of tutorial_global_oce_biogeo
240    o pkg/mom_fluxform:
241      add a special version of momentum advection intended to conserve momentum
242      next to a bathymetry step or a coastline edge. (default = off = #undef)
243    o new read/write pickup version:
244      - for now, only implemented for main (mdsio) pickup file.
245      - write out only what is needed to restart; merge pickup_nh , pickup_ph
246        and main pickup together.
247      - read meta file; read only what is needed to restart; stop if a field
248        is missing (if pickupStrictlyMatch=T, = the default) or try to restart
249        if it make sense (even if the restart is not perfect).
250      - if no meta file, assume that pickup to read corresponds exactly to
251        a pickup that would currently be written.
252      - read pickup written in the old format (until checkpoint59i) if it
253        recognizes an old meta file (no field-list).
254      - add a meta file in exp. which starts from a pickup: 2 cases:
255        a) minimal meta file (with just file precision) + pickupStrictlyMatch=F
256         e.g.: global_ocean.90x40x15/input/pickup.0000036000.meta
257        b) a meta file describing the content of the associated pickup file
258         e.g.: tutorial_global_oce_biogeo/input/pickup.0004248000.meta
259    o pkg/mdsio & pkg/rw:
260      - new routine to read a meta file ; new set of routine to read
261        Multiple-fields file (with meta file).
262    o added open boundary conditions capability for seaice
263        HSNOW, HSALT, UICE, and VICE
264    
265    checkpoint59i
266    o adjoint:
267      * fix multiDimAdvection adjoint
268        (partial recomputation problem by TAF for fVerT(:,:,kDown)
269        and comlev1 size definition (maxpass vs. max. number of tracers)
270      * verification/global_ocean.90x45x15 adjoint now tests
271        NLFS and multiDimAdvection using DST3 (=30)
272      * verification/lab_sea now tests multiDimAdvection using DST3 (=30)
273    o pkg/kpp: add "_d 0" to real constant (if missing);
274      update output of exp: natl_box (10.digits); vermix (std, 7.digits)
275      and lab_sea, 3.FW (only 6,4,6 digits match) & AD (8.digits).
276    o prepare for "clever pickup" implementation: add new header file "RESTART.h"
277      for internal parameters related to restart process (formerly from PARAMS.h)
278      and add startAB parameter to argument list of S/R ADAMS_BASHFORTH2.
279    o more standard interface to {PKG}_WRITE_PICKUP with pickup suffix passed
280      as argument. (only atm2d & obcs write_pickup have not yet been updated)
281    o pkg/monitor:
282      - use GLOBAL_SUM_TILE instead of _GLOBAL_SUM
283      - fix mon_stats_rs (statistics over the full domain, even where field is zero)
284      - account for deep Atmosphere factor and density factor (anelastic)
285    o added open boundary conditions capability for seaice HEFF and AREA
286    o pkg/shelfice: add option for convservative form of Hellmer&Olbers (1989)
287      thermodynamics
288      - requires a little reorganization, which affects the testreport results
289        of isomip.htd (only 7 digits of cg2d agree) => update/modify experiment,
290        so that now the conservative form is tested
291      - add a few comments
292    o add missing cvs Header: or Name: in eesupp/*, pkg/* & verification/code*
293    o add a little bit of code to gad_os7mp_adv_?.F to help vectorization
294    o add new diagnostics to seaice: advective, diffusive fluxes (only for
295      multidim-advection, for scheme 2 they are not filled) and transports,
296      thermodynamic growth rates
297    o change units of EmPmR (inside the code, + within coupling interface)
298      from m/s to kg/m2/s (mass flux) but leave input file unchanged.
299      Affects results @ truncation level (cg2d match) and update output of
300       experiments: lab_sea(6), global_ocean.90x40x15(10),
301      global_ocean.cs32x15(11x3,10), natl_box(11), tutorial_global_oce_latlon(11)
302      + adjoint results: global_ocean_ebm(11) and lab_sea (12).
303      Coupled set-up: allow to restart from previous pickups (cpl_oldPickup=T).
304      Next: will retire convertEmP2rUnit (simply using mass2rUnit instead).
305    
306    checkpoint59h
307    o pkg/exf:
308      - improve vectorization by moving if-statement out of loops in
309        exf_mapfields, exf_radiation
310      - exf_bulkformulae.F: introduce 2D fields and vectorize code
311    o pkg/kpp: added the salt plume scheme (ALLOW_SALT_PLUME) to KPP package
312    o testreport:
313      - allow to test for Qnet & SeaIce monitor output; clean-up ALLOW_BULK_OFFLINE
314        monitor & update offline_exf_seaice exp. output.
315      - AD testing: pass/FAIL according to Grad. output accuracy (instead of Cost)
316    o pkg/seaice:
317      - bug fix in the evp solver: boundary conditions were affected be
318        masking of zMax/zMin (changes results)
319      - minor bug fix in boundary conditions in seaice_calc_strainrates
320        (changes results for no_slip)
321      - seaice_lsr.F: make interpolation of eta dependent on boundaries
322      - replace hardcoded lower limit for zeta (zMin) by runtime parameter
323      - add a test to lab_sea, that tests the Hibler and Bryan (1987) ocean
324        stress formulation and no-slip boundary conditions
325    o pkg/ptracers: Temporary fix for PTRACERS_useGMRedi & PTRACERS_useKPP
326      in gad_calc_rhs.F ; add few safety stops in initialisation phase.
327    o pkg/seaice: a first HSALT time stepping equation has been checked in
328    o pkg/seaice: replaced maskW with seaiceMaskU and maskS with seaiceMaskV
329      in seaice_lsr.F; this solves the pkg/seaice-pkg/obcs problem
330      without requiring DO-IF statements
331    o pkg/thsice:
332      use continuous power-law function for partition of energy between lateral
333      melting/freezing and thinning/thickening ; old code using step function
334      still available with #undef THSICE_FRACEN_POWERLAW
335      update output of exp: aim.5l_cs.thSI, global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn & .thsice
336    o testreport: change AD testing : check against results/output_adm.txt
337      using same scripts as for forward test.
338    
339    checkpoint59g
340    o adjoint testing: in preparation for changing testreport:
341      - output format: cost and grad written on separated lines
342      - ad output results in directory "results" (instead of "results_ad")
343    o pkg/seaice: adding ice salinity HSALT as a prognostic variable
344    o pkg/seaice: changes for using pkg/seaice with pkg/obcs
345    o pkg/ecco: allow user defined cost function contributions
346    o testreport:
347      Allow to choose (per experiment) the list of tested output variables
348       and the main variable (used to issue a pass/FAIL ) ;
349      - for now, done by adding the specific list in file: [exp]/input/tr_checklist
350      - default is unchanged: >cg2d< , (T,S,U,V,5 tracers)_[min,max,mean,StD] ;
351      Also modify printing of summary:
352       a) ">" NN "<" indicates the "main" variable (used for pass/FAIL)
353       b) echo the list of tested variables in the individual summary.txt of
354          each experiment.
355    o new S/R GLOBAL_SUM_TILE to compute global sum independently of number of
356      threads and number of processes (with #define GLOBAL_SUM_SEND_RECV)
357      (but still depend on the tile decompostion of the domain).
358    o pkg/seaice: change a discretization detail to make the B-grid code
359      "more symmetric". This change is likely to remove all "ridges/leads" that
360      where quasi-aligned with the grid in B-grid solutions. It may also be
361      the solution to the stress coupling issues with the B-grid.
362    o each tested exp: add a "run" directory with a standard ".cvsignore" file ;
363      remove .cvsignore from input dir. (since testreport no longer run here).
364    o pkg/thsice:
365     - cleaning: move common block out of "THSICE_2DYN.h" (removed) to "THSICE_VARS.h"
366     - fix reshaping of sea-ice just after advection:
367       melt all the ice only if ice-volume is too small.
368     - re-visit lateral/thinning repartition of melting (modifs from May 04, 2007):
369       prevent lateral melting if sea-ice fraction is too close to iceMaskMin ;
370     and update experiment global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn (+start from pickup files).
371    o external_forcing_surf : extend the use of salt_EvPrRn & temp_EvPrRn (fresh-water
372      tracer content) to linFS or no RealFreshWaterFlux ; default remains unchanged.
373    o define mass2rUnit & rUnit2mass as units conversion factor, used for surface
374      forcing. mass2rUnit: from mass per unit area [kg/m2] to r-coordinate unit
375      (z-coord: =1/rhoConst ; p-coord: =gravity) ; rUnit2mass is just the reverse;
376      and remove horiVertRatio (& recip_horiVertRatio). Affects truncation error
377      of exp. global_oce_in_p: 10 16 16 14 16 13 16 16 16 13 13 13 16 13 13 12 16
378      -> update output.txt
379    o pkg/cd_code: add brackets in multiple terms sum (S/R CD_CODE_SCHEME):
380     this affects truncation error: -> update output.txt of exp:
381      global_ocean.90x40x15 (fw&adm), lab_sea (fw&adm) & lab_sea.lsr,
382      ideal_2D_oce, isomip.htd, natl_box, tutorial_global_oce_latlon.
383    
384    checkpoint59f
385    o pkg/autodiff: zero_adj resets an ajoint variable to zero (in adjoint mode)
386    o pkg/ctrl: ctrl_bound  forces parameter corrections to stay in
387      a bounded range (in forward mode)
388    o pkg/ecco, ctrl, autodiff and mom_common:
389     internal parameter controls, completements of implementations
390    o add few EXCH S/R (UV_BGRID, UV_DGRID, SM) for B & D-Grid velocity & 2nd Moment Sxy.
391    o use UV_BGRID exch for dxV,dyU: for now, only with pkg/exch2 & forward ;
392      (not seem any difference in testing results).
393    o pkg/cd_code: use the right EXCH calls (for CS-grid); but problem remains
394       at face corners.
395    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
396     - in GAD.h, define as parameters (iMinAdvR,iMaxAdvR,jMinAdvR,jMaxAdvR)
397      loop range indices for computing vertical advection tendency
398      and do the calculation in the interior only (no overlap) ;
399      for now, only implemented for SOM advection (to save CPU time).
400     - add argument "withSigns" to S/R FILL_CS_CORNER_TR_RL (needed for SOM_xy moment)
401    o exch2 adjoint
402      First set of changes:
403      - add exch2 hand-written adjoint templates
404      - exch2 hand-written no longer use TAF-flag 'nownew_arg'
405        This will require cleanup in pkg/autodiff/*.F
406        (changed routines currently kept separate in verif. code/)
407      - Comment all relevant #ifndef ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC
408        that used to hide exch2 or cubed-sphere specific code
409        (commented via 'cph-exch2')
410    o pkg/seaice
411      - Close southern and western boundaries for UICE/VICE when useOBCS=.TRUE.
412    o pkg/bulk_force: fix loading into Qsw of Short-Wave flux; and update
413       output of global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice .
414    
415    checkpoint59e
416    o exch2: new S/R that only use the cube-tracer (center-position) exchange:
417      for B-grid vector (not yet tested) and C-grid vector (<- only used
418      when option W2_USE_R1_ONLY in W2_OPTIONS.h is defined).
419    o starting implementation of Duffy et al. (GRL 1999) salt plume scheme
420      (#ifdef ALLOW_SALT_PLUME)
421    o gather_2d/scatter_2d: removed halo regions
422    o gmredi: add option (GM_taper_scheme='fm07') for Ferrari & McWilliams 2007
423      scheme and the corresponding test case (under front_relax dir). For now,
424      only available with Skew-flux form and not yet tested in realistic set-up.
425      adjoint: store directives updated, but gradient checks deteriorated,
426      so maybe GM/Redi adjoint is now broken.
427    o seaice adjoint
428      * add AREA, HEFF, HSNOW as control variable
429        (should not change lab_sea results)
430      * CTRL_OPTIONS.h needs new flag: CTRL_SET_OLD_MAXCVARS_40
431    o pkg/seaice:
432      * added computation of saltFlux in seaice_growth;
433        For time being, sea ice salinity is assumed constant
434        contribution of snow flooding to freshening of sea ice is neglected.
435        SEAICE_salinity is set in SEAICE_PARM01 of data.seaice and it
436        defaults to 0.0 in order to maintain backward compatibility.
437        Typical values for SEAICE_salinity are 4 to 10 g/kg.
438      * replaced dRf(1) with dRf(kSurface)*hFacC(kSurface) in seaice_growth.F
439      * added SEAICE_availHeatFrac, which specifies fraction of surface level
440        heat content used to melt or grow ice
441      * commented out cap of HICE: it helps keep ice thinner
442      * reintroduced cap of HEFF via MAX_HEFF and SEAICE_CAP_HEFF option
443      * applied OBCS T/S mask to HEFFM sea ice mask
444    
445    checkpoint59d
446    o standard name: {PKG}_DIAGNOSTICS_STATE to fill diagnostics array
447     for {PKG} state variables, and called from DO_STATEVARS_DIAGS.
448     (keep {PKG}_DIAGNOSTICS_FILL for non-state variables diagnostics)
449    o pkg/gmredi (gmredi_readparms.F): add some missing "_d 0"
450     and change default value of parameter "GM_Small_Number";
451     update output of exp: lab_sea (x2), cfc_example, global_ocean.90x40x15,
452       global_ocean.cs32x15 (x4), global_ocean_ebm, global_with_exf,  
453       tutorial_global_oce_biogeo, tutorial_global_oce_latlon
454    o pkg/ecco: cost function when applying pkg/smooth to controls
455    o pkg/ctrl: add forcingPrecond run time parameter
456    o pkg/seaice:
457     - replace ZMIN=4.e8 with ZMIN=0. in dynsolver.F as in C-grid code
458     - fix bug in metric terms of u-equation in LSR solver (implicit part),
459       changes verification/lab_sea
460     - rearrange implicit part of u-equation in LSR solver to make it easier to
461       read, understand, and debug. This causes changes at the truncation level.
462     - fix (serious) bug in the boundary conditions (sign error in the implicit
463       part) of the LSR solver. Changes all LSR results.
464     - fixed problem with HSNOW initialization to avoid thick snow when AREA
465       is initilized with small values - does not change lab_sea results.
466     - added HsnowFile initialization capability
467    o pkg/smooth: addition to model/src and pkg/ctrl so allow
468     initialization of pkg/smooth and application to control vector
469    o pkg/seaice: fix another bug in the LSR no-slip boundary conditons
470    o dependencies: pkg/profiles requires pkg/cal
471    o pkg/profiles:
472     - added option ALLOW_PROFILES_GENERICGRID
473         -> pkg/profiles can thus be used with any grid (e.g. cs32x15) assuming
474         that interpolation information (grid points and coefficients) is provided
475         within the netcdf input files.
476         -> sample matlab scripts can be found in MITgcm_contrib/gael
477         that allow you to prepare netcdf input files.
478     - also modified: cleaner include statements, cleaner error print statements,
479       cleaner stops when error, and more tests of the netcdf input files consistency.
480    o additional test (in global_ocean.cs32x15) using seaice+thsice pkgs.
481    o pkg/seaice:
482     - move seaice-diagnostics from seaice_do_diags to do_statevars_diags; this
483       requires a new routine: seaice_diagnostics_fill.F
484     - make sure that seaice does not move if not forced (pressure replacement
485       method, Hibler and Ip, 1995), changes results
486     - and new damping criterion for EVP solver according to Hunke, JCP, 2001
487     - SEAICE_evpDampC = > 0. turns it on (615. is the recommended value).
488       It is turned off by default (=-1.), because it changes the results.
489     - make it possible to read AREA from a file, too.
490    
491    checkpoint59c
492    o add S/R and diagnostics for oceanic mixed-layer depth
493    o move GMRedi call after all vertical mixing schemes (including KPP)
494    o pkg/thsice:
495     - ensure iceMask > iceMaskMin : this problem appeared after May-04 modifs
496      (melt only laterally if thin ice): update output of global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice
497    o pkg/obcs:
498     - bug fix for balance code
499    o pkg/seaice:
500      - allow values of SEAICE_elasticParm > 1
501      - add new parameter SEAICE_evpTauRelax as an alternative
502        to SEAICE_elasticParm
503      - make lsr boundary conditions free slip (by default), changes result
504      - add code for no slip boundary conditions for lsr
505      - set minimum of zeta to zero (and not 4e8) (changes results)
506      - add a cap on AREA after advecting AREA if seaice_growth is not called
507    o change calculation of Visbeck K:
508      - no longer depend on tapering scheme; instead, compute slope (limited
509        by GM_maxSlope). this is equivalent to what was comuted before with
510        clipping or linear tappering.
511      - fix vertical averaging (wrong by 1/2 level)
512      - leave the old version (but will not be maintained) within
513        #ifdef OLD_VISBECK_CALC / #endif
514      - update output of exp. ideal_2D_oce
515    o change error catch in calc_r_star to improve vectorization
516    o exf runoff and seaice: remove ALLOW_SEAICE from exf pkg files and
517      add #define ALLOW_RUNOFF in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h (when not using exf).
518    o adjoint:
519      Re-organized adjoint checkpointing according to Matt Mazloff
520      (but with modifs/completions/cleanups)
521      Storing is now bundled into large arrays to optimized I/O
522      (and second step in cleanup of the_main_loop)
523    
524    checkpoint59b
525    o coupler (pkg/atm_ocn_coupler, pkg/ocn_compon_interf, pkg/atm2d):
526      - export/import (between ocean & coupler) fields needed for ocean DIC.
527    o pkg/seaice:
528      - get rid of three more exchanges seaice_calc_viscosities (required
529        different loop boundaries in seaice_lsr and seaice_ocean_stress)
530      - bug fix in seaice_ocean_stress (update of lab_sea required)
531      - reduce loop boundaries to necessary minimum also in seaice_evp
532      - go back to the old way of computing deltaC/Z as the adjoint likes that
533        better
534    o Refresh of tutorial_global_oce_latlon (includes changing salinity-like
535      passive tracer to an Age Tracer) + update output.txt
536    o pkg/exf:
537      - implement A-grid / C-grid selection for wind-stress input files.
538      - clean-up exf_wind.F (remove us, use wspeed instead ; add wStress)
539      for now, in exf_bulk_largeyeager04.F only :
540      - change implementation for case where windspeed + 2. components wind-stress
541        are read-in. AND use rhoConstFresh to convert evap.
542    o pkg/seaice:
543      - use correct EXCH_UV for wind-forcing (on A-grid).
544      - change SEAICE_OPTIONS.h to limit the number of option combinations (regarding
545        SEAICE_EXTERNAL_FORCING & SEAICE_EXTERNAL_FLUXES); add corresponding stops.
546    o pkg/exf:
547      - default EXF options are now set in EXF_OPTIONS.h (ifndef ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC)
548      EXF_INTERPOLATION:
549      - merge global_with_exf/code version of exf_interp_read.F
550        to the main code ;
551      - Add new option: EXF_INTERP_USE_DYNALLOC to use Dynamical Allocation when
552        reading the file ; Important: This options needs to be defined to recover
553        previous code.
554        otherwise, use fixed size array to read in (size=exf_interp_bufferSize).
555      - no longer loose real*8 precision along the way when using exf_iprec=64.
556    o pkg/seaice: rearrangement of common blocks (really needs more cleaning up)
557      - change discretisation of evp-solver in order to avoid another exchange
558        (changes lab_sea) and clean up a little
559      - replace SQRT(MAX(deltaC,SEAICE_EPS)) by MAX(SQRT(deltaC),SEAICE_EPS)
560        help the adjoint (this also changes the results slightly)
561      - add a few "_d 0" where they had been missing in seaice_evp.F
562      - cleaning up: remove unused seaice_calc_rhs.F
563    o pkg/exf: some cleaning-up:
564      - change various "constants" into runtime parameters
565      - cleaned-up Large&Yeager04 routine which should eventually
566        replace exf_bulkformulae.F (changed names of S/R and CPP)
567        and merged various ALLOW_ATM_WIND options
568     only used with thsice pkg (in thsice_get_exf.F):
569      - implement fixed turbulent transfert Coeff over ice (as in Large&Yeager04)
570        which are used when useStabilityFct_overIce=TRUE (= the default)
571      - change default values of ice & snow emissivity and scale downward LW
572        by ice & snow emissivity.
573    o pkg/thsice:
574     fix few little problems, in thsice_calc_thickn.F:
575      - growth vertically (and not laterally) if iceFrac == iceMaskMax
576      - melt only laterally if hIce < hThinIce (as the comments say)
577      and in thsice_extend.F:
578      - allow to form ice even when iceFrac == iceMaskMax (by increasing thickness)
579      - start to form ice as soon as the minimum ice-volume is reachable.
580     update output of test-exp: aim.5l_cs(thSI), global_ocean.cs32x15(thsice),
581      and cpl_aim+ocn
582    o pkg/kpp
583     - move computation of surface related input fields to KPP into a new
584       subroutine kpp_forcing_surf.F
585     - remove wrong (within bi,bj loops) EXCH calls.
586     - little cleaning (add argument myThid in last position, cvs header ...)
587     - for now, fix conservation problem by exchanging KPPviscAz (may not
588       be the best fix)
589    o pkg/seaice
590     - check for inconsistent evp parameter/cpp-flag combination
591     - remove leftover errIO flat for obsolete name list error handling
592    o OpenAD
593     - changed verification/OpenAD to full baroclinic setup (including GM/Redi)
594    
595    checkpoint59a
596    o pkg/seaice: some parameter clarifications and a little bit of clean up
597    o pkg/thsice: rename run-time parameters:
598       himin       -> hIceMin
599       himin0      -> hThinIce
600       hihig       -> hThickIce
601       i0          -> i0swFrac
602       transCoef   -> bMeltCoef
603       frac_energy -> fracMelting
604      add new parameters: hNewIceMax, fracFreezing, dhSnowLin
605       with default values (for now) that do not change the results.
606      remove old version of thsice vars advection in pkg/seaice.
607    o in FFIELDS.h:
608      - replace #ifndef ALLOW_EXF  by #ifndef EXCLUDE_FFIELDS_LOAD
609      - make pLoad & sIceLoad always available (but still only used if
610         ATMOSPHERIC_LOADING is #define).
611    o pkg/kpp: replaced _KPP_RL with _RL
612    o bug fixes for vertical diffusivity computations when both KPP and
613        3D diffusivity arrays are used; pkg/kpp/kpp_calc_diff_s & _t.F
614        are no longer updating the vertical diffusivity array
615        (passed as argument) but are (re-) setting those arrays.
616    o pkg/seaice: fix bug in evp solver, while doing that
617      - change (improve?) discretization of stress computations for both
618        cgrid-lsr and evp solver
619      - add a new routine to compute strain rates
620      - the above changes lab_sea results
621      - add no slip conditions for evp solver (off by default), lsr-version
622        may follow
623      - fix exchange for shear at Z-points (does not change lab_sea)
624      - retire SEAICEuseEVP, instead turn on EVP by setting SEAICE_deltaTevp
625        (to force the user to pick a time step since there is not "safe" way
626        of choosing it)
627      - add principal stress diagnostics
628      - rearrange fields for evp a little to avoid having to call a: too many
629        exchanges and b: exchanges for stress trensor components which we do
630        not have.
631      - modify Hibler+Bryan (1987) stress coupling so that it reuses information
632        of evp, complete rewrite for lsr case (latter is does not yet work
633        in all cases)
634    o pkg/kpp: add code to have mixing in shelf ice caverns
635      - add myThid to all kpp routines (long overdue)
636    
637    checkpoint59
638    o pkg/exf:
639      - fix wind-stress location: defined on A-grid (if ALLOW_ATM_WIND &
640        ALLOW_BULKFORMULAE or USE_EXF_INTERPOLATION), otherwise, defined on C-grid
641      - move exf header files from lower_case.h to UPPER_CASE.h ;
642        add missing cvs Header & Name
643      - add adjoint routines and flow dirs for newly used exch_uv_agrid routines
644      - add namelist param. selectStressGridPosition, exf_monFreq
645      - retire many _CLIM routines, and remove data.exf_clim
646        + params moved to data.exf
647        + climsst, climsss now handled by exf_set_gen, i.e.
648          climss?period=0 refers to constant field,
649          climss?period=-12 to monthly forcing
650      - split up namelists in data.exf
651    o pkg/seaice:
652      - remove seaice_exch and seaice_exch_uv
653      - remove superfluous exchange of theta
654      - add myThid to seaice_budget_ocean/ice
655      - add new interface for atmospheric wind forcing (C-grid only)
656        + new routine
657        + two new field (taux, tauy for stress over ice)
658        + removed one global field (DAIRN) for C-grid case only
659    o pkg/thsise
660      - 2nd set of modifs for thsice adjoint in conjunction with exf
661    o enable runtime flag useEXF (useCAL is set to .T. if useEXF=.T.)
662    
663    checkpoint58y_post
664    o Added capability for latitudinal dependence of Bryan and Lewis, 1979
665      vertical diffusivity, similar to that in MOM4; turned on using
666      #define ALLOW_BL79_LAT_VARY in CPP_OPTIONS.h and specified using
667      diffKrBL79*, diffKrBLEQ*, and BL79LatVary in runtime data file.
668    o Added capability for 3D specification of background vertical diffusion
669      coefficient.  This is done by (i) #define ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR
670      in CPP_OPTIONS.h and (ii) specifying file diffKrFile in runtime
671      "data" file that contains the 3D vertical diffusivity coefficients.
672    o ice dynamics (pkg/seaice) with thsice thermodynamics:
673      - add code within pkg thsice to advect & diffuse sea-ice fields
674      similar to (and will replace) what has been added in  seaice_advdiff.F,
675      but: - conserving Mass, Heat & Salt.
676           - better when using non-linear advection scheme (not yet fully tested)
677           - can also be used in atmospheric set-up (for now, only the diffusion).
678    
679    checkpoint58x_post
680    o IO option for global-file compact format:
681      - add options when generating topology (utils/exch2/matlab-topology-generator)
682      - add I/O capability (pkg/mdsio).
683      - adapt utils/matlab/rdmds.m to read this format.
684      for now long-line format not yet supported by pkg/mdsio (& exch2).
685    o shelfice: add a few diagnostics
686    
687    checkpoint58w_post
688    o p-coord. non-hydrostatic using reference profile for w <-> omega conversion:
689      rVel2wUnit & wUnit2rVel are computed from reference profile Tref,Sref
690      (and replace horiVertRatio in NH code).
691      Update output of exp.: tutorial_global_oce_in_p (useNHMTerms !)
692                         and tutorial_plume_on_slope (sensitive to truncation)
693    o seaice: if ALLOW_ATM_WIND is undefined use wind stress
694      directly to drive seaice model (C-grid only)
695    o exf: when input wind-stress (#undef ALLOW_ATM_WIND):
696     - reintroduce computation of wind from stress,
697     - compute tau (in exf_bulkformulae.F) from windstress averaged to
698       mass points to avoid tau = 0
699     - fix serious bug: (1/3) in Fortran is not the same as (1./3.)
700    o rdmnc.m: make it work with "global" files created with gluemnc
701    o rdmnc.m : some improvements in dealing with singleton dimension
702      (tested on all testreport mnc output files).
703    o genmake2: disable pkg/profiles if netcdf test fails.
704    o cpl_aim+ocn exp.: use consistent rhoConstFresh in Atm & Ocn; update output.
705    o move call to cal_readparms up to make calendar parameters/variable available
706      to all packages
707    
708    checkpoint58v_post
709    o change EOS (from POLY3 to JMD95P) in global_ocean.90x45x15 to get
710      useDynP_inEos_Zc tested.
711    o pkg/exf: changes to properly interpolate/mask/scale initial fields
712    o utils/matlab/cs_grid/read_cs: routines to speed up reading of CS510 fields
713      and portions thereof.  See read_cs.txt for description and examples.
714    o utils/matlab/cs_grid/bk_line: to compute transport through passages,
715      add a script (grt_circ_bkl.m) to generate broken-line between 2 points,
716      following the great-circle arc between those 2 points.
717    o trap un-initialized variable with pathscale compiler on weddell.mit.edu
718      (thanks to Constantinos): fix few problems and get (almost) all exp to pass.
719    o 2nd-Order Moment Advection Scheme (Prather, 1986): first check-in
720     - enable by setting #define GAD_ALLOW_SOM_ADVECT (in GAD_OPTIONS.h)
721     - used without limiter (AdvScheme=80) or with Prather limiter (AdvScheme=81)
722     - still needs work (not working with some options ; efficiency to improve)
723       and serious testing.
724     - use this scheme for temperature & salinity in 2 advection test exp.:
725       advect_xy & advect_xz, respectively.
726    
727    checkpoint58u_post
728    o new test-exp: fizhi-cs-32x32x40 (40 levels) to replace the 10 levels.
729    o move call to INI_FORCING from PACKAGES_INIT_VARIABLES to INITIALISE_VARIA.
730    o testreport: add option "-skipdir" to skip some test.
731    o exf: when input wind-stress (#undef ALLOW_ATM_WIND), by-pass turbulent
732      momentum calculation.
733    o gad_advection: fix vertAdvecScheme (if different from advectionScheme)
734    o some cleaning: usePickupBeforeC35 no longer supported ; remove this option.
735      remove checkpoint.F and the_correction_step.F (no longer used);
736      do the k loop inside CYCLE_TRACER (supposed to be more efficient).
737    o add option (linFSConserveTr) to correct for tracer source/sink due to
738      Linear Free surface
739    o pkg/seaice: fix a bug in the flooding algorithm: turn off the snow machine
740    o pkg/thsice: fix reading mnc-pickups
741    
742    checkpoint58t_post
743    o pkg/diagnostics: fix multi-threaded output (when singleCpuIO=F)
744    o pkg/mdsio:
745     - clean-up mdsio_readfield.F & mdsio_writefield_new.F and
746       move to new files: mdsio_read_field.F (S/R MDS_READ_FIELD) &
747       mdsio_write_field.F (S/R MDS_WRITE_FIELD);
748     - fix multi-threaded singleCpuIO option in MDS_WRITE_FIELD
749     - collect old S/R  in one file: mdsio_rw_field.F (now just a call to
750       either MDS_READ_FIELD or MDS_WRITE_FIELD )
751     - new S/R (to replace MDSWRITEMETA), which allows to write more
752       informations (variable names, time ...) to meta files.
753     - modify rdmds.m to give back the meta file content.
754    o pkg/diagnostics: change vertical interpolation to be safer, and more
755       flexible (define p-levels to interpolate to in data.diagnostics);
756      add argument to S/R DIAGNOSTICS_GET_POINTERS to catch the right
757       diagnostic pointer.
758    o pkg/seaice: more cleaning up of seaice_growth, added many comments
759    o pkg/exf: put runoff0 and runoff1 into the appropriate common block
760    o fix multi-category seaice:
761     - change cpp flag SEAICE_MULTILEVEL to more meaningful name:
762       SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY
763     - fix short wave heat flux
764    o pkg/seaice: change default (SEAICE_OPTIONS.h): use C-grid dynamics
765       and allow to use EVP solver. Change forward lab_sea: test both EVP
766       solver and LSR solver, and use C-grid dynamics (like lab_sea adjoint)
767    o Initial check-in of lab_sea adjoint
768      (very similar to natl_box_adjoint/code_seaice)
769      * used C-grid and EVP solver
770      * used KPP, GM/Redi
771      * uses inAdExact=.TRUE.
772      * gradient checks fail for both ADM and TLM
773        due to sensitive snow melt code in seaice_grwoth (look for "JZ")
774        f.d. gradients actually seem more problematic than ADM, TLM gradients;
775        issue is related to forward mismatch between g77 an ifort
776    o pkg/seaice: overhaul of thermodynamics
777     - growth.F and groatb.F are replaced by new routine seaice_growth.F
778     - budget.F is replaced by two new routines seaice_budget_ocean/ice.F
779     - move a few global fields out of SEAICE.h into seaice_growth.F and
780       make them 2D (FICE/QNETO/ ...)
781     - remove FO (it is the same as QNETO)
782     - introduce a few local fields to avoid modifying external fields such
783       as atemp, etc.
784    
785    checkpoint58s_post
786    o pkg/exf: moved exf_init_runoff.F to exf_init.F and exf_set_gen.F
787      changed exf_set_gen.F so that
788        genperiod=0 means input file is one time-constant field and
789        genperiod=-12 means input file contains 12 monthly means
790    o CG2D: use pre-computed solver main-diagonal (stored in common block);
791      this affects truncation error ; generate new output file for exp. which
792      fails: exp4(12d), fizhi-cs-aqualev20(12d), front_relax(10d),
793        global_ocean.90x40x15(10d), global_ocean.cs32x15(10d).thsice(11d).viscA4(10d),
794        ideal_2D_oce(10d), internal_wave(09d), isomip.htd(11d), matrix_example(07d),
795        MLAdjust(4x11d,12d), natl_box(11d), rotating_tank(12d),
796        tutorial_global_oce_in_p(10d), tutorial_plume_on_slope(11d),
797        vermix(12d).ggl90(12d).my82(11d).opps(12d).pp81(11d)
798    o start implementation of deep-atmosphere and anelastic formulation
799    o verification: remove 2nd copy of input files and use script "prepare_run"
800      to make a symbolic link to the 1rst copy (reduce downloaded size by ~81.M)
801    o mom_common/vecinv/fluxform: fix a few initialisation isssues
802    o profiles: fix for multithreaded case
803    
804    o diagnostics: rename few diags:
805      s/'PRESSURE'/'RCENTER '/g
806      s/'TICE    '/'oceFreez'/g
807      s/'TAUX    '/'oceTAUX '/g
808      s/'TAUY    '/'oceTAUY '/g
809      s/'SWFLUX  '/'oceQsw  '/g
810      s/DIFx/DFxE/g
811      s/DIFy/DFyE/g
812      and add few ocean-forcing diagnostics:
813      atmPload, sIceLoad, oceQnet, oceFWflx, oceSflux, surForcT & surForcS
814    o modifications to pkg/seaice/growth.F and budget.F, which change results of
815      lab_sea experiment: HSNOW was sometimes treated as effective and sometimes
816      as actual snow thickness.  It now refers everywhere to effective snow
817      thickness, meaning that for non-zero AREA, actual thickness is HEFF/AREA.
818    
819    checkpoint58r_post
820    o modifications to pkg/seaice/growth.F, which change results of
821      lab_sea experiment: fixes pertain to melting snow over open water, to
822      masking EVAP under sea ice, and to using the correct AREA variable for
823      computations of EVAP, PRECIP, HSNOW, and GHEFF
824    o add ability to read bathy, salt, and theta using MNC (off by def)
825    o add flooding algorithm and advection of HSNOW for pkg/seaice;
826      both are turned off by default and do no change any results
827    o seaice advection with pkg/thsice: a step toward the use of non-linear
828      advection scheme, but #ifdef or commented out for now (requires more EXCH).
829    o use standard version of PTRACERS_INI_VARIA in tutorial_tracer_adjsens
830      (identical results) and the standard version of EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD
831      in natl_box (affects results @ truncation level: update output.txt)
832    o multi-threading and IO:
833      - replace some call to MDSIO S/R by the corresponding READ/WRITE_FLD S/R.
834      - remove most of BEGIN_MASTER/ END_MASTER around READ/WRITE_FLD S/R calls
835        (needed to work with SingleCpuIO): tested in all verif. exp.
836    o GAD: use simpler DST3 formulation as default (old version left within #ifdef)
837      affects the results (but none of the verification test uses this scheme).
838    o Adding some pkg/diagnostics capability to pkg/seaice
839      (will certainly be subject to changes)
840    o ctrl: adding new control variables:
841      lwflux, lwdown, evap, snowprecip, apressure, runoff
842    
843    checkpoint58q_post
844    o added CPP_EEOPTIONS.h flag DISABLE_MPI_READY_TO_RECEIVE.  Speeds up
845      1/6-deg Southern Ocean configuration by 8% on IBM Datastar and
846      high_res_cube configuration by 4% on Columbia.
847    o clean-up multi-threaded problems (reported by debugger tcheck on ACES);
848      add (in global_with_exf/code) a version of EXF_INTERP_READ without
849      dynamical allocation (seems to work in multi-threaded).
850    o new function "MASTER_CPU_IO" (=T if master thread & master CPU, if using
851      single CPU io) so that TAF does not have to see EESUPPORT.h
852    o pkg/seaice: implement sea-ice loading (when using RealFreshWaterFlux)
853    
854    checkpoint58p_post
855    o obcs: stop if obcs is used with useCDscheme = .true.
856    o shelfice:
857     - fix a sign error so that no slip at shelfice interface works
858     - remove stop for combination non-hydrostatic code and shelfice. That does
859       not mean, that the results are correct, but at least they are numerically
860       stable
861    o diagnoctics: modify UVELPHI and VVELPHI to include hfac (i.e. mass-weighted)
862    o added adjoint exch routined for all exch*3d* routines
863      and updated flow directives
864    
865    checkpoint58o_post
866    o replace calls to EXCH_Z & EXCH_UV_AGRID: use the new _3D_ version ;
867      remove old subroutines (_XY_ & _XYZ_); update the adjoint version.
868    o change controling S/R for writing pickup file (new S/R do_write_pickup)
869      and clean-up reading/writing of pickup files.
870    o fix local version of read/write pickup (NH part) in rotating_tank/code
871    o simplify EXCH interface:
872     - change _XYZ_ interface to _3D_ subroutine (with 3rd dim in argument list)
873     - not often used EXCH S/R (exch_z, exch_uv_agrid): keep only the _3D_ version
874    o added the regrid package
875    o shelfice:
876     - add a simple boundary layer scheme to reduce noise
877     - fix the indexing in shelfice_u/v_drag so that there will be actually drag
878    
879    checkpoint58n_post
880    o fix globalArea multi-threaded calculation: need to apply GLOBAL_SUM to
881       local variable (not in common block).
882    o lot of small changes for multi-threaded. Most tests (using OMP & ifort) pass.
883      - still problems with pkgs: mnc, exp2, dic, cal, exf (and probably more);
884      - still BEGIN_MASTER/END_MASTER to remove around READ/WRITE_FLD S/R calls
885        to work with SingleCpuIO.
886    o add "_d 0" to real constant of pkg/cfc subroutines ;
887       update exp. cfc_exemple & tutorial_cfc_offline output files.
888    o multi-threading and IO:
889      - all threads call READ_FLD S/R (needed if using SingleCpuIO):
890        (no BEGIN_MASTER/ END_MASTER around the call, but inside MDSIO S/R.
891      - barrier before and after reading.
892      - stop if other than master is calling MDS_WRITELOCAL (if #undef IO_THREAD_SAFE)
893      - avoid using MDS_WRITELOCAL for LAND pkg output.
894      - new S/R AIM_WRITE_PHYS (replaces AIM_WRITE_LOCAL) to write AIM physics
895        common-block variables ; Allows multi-threading with master-thread IO.
896    o change default MAX_NO_THREADS from 32 to 4 ;
897      and stop cleanly when MAX_NO_THREADS is too small.
898    o add S/R BAR_CHECK to check multi-threaded barrier synchronization
899    
900    checkpoint58m_post
901    o add a Non-Hydroatatic test (with 3-D Coriolis, NHMTerms, biharmonic Visc.
902       and side-drag) on CS-grid : global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
903  o make "tutorial_global_oce_latlon" from standard "global_ocean.90x40x15" exp.  o make "tutorial_global_oce_latlon" from standard "global_ocean.90x40x15" exp.
904     keep global_ocean.90x40x15 (for AD testing) with former secondary test     keep global_ocean.90x40x15 (for AD testing) with former secondary test
