5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o pkg/thsice:
8       - change a few routines for better vectorization: thsice_albedo.F,
9         thsice_step_temp.F, and in thsice_calc_thickn.F. Results are
10         not affected, but in particular the latter routine has changed
11         dramatically (not necessarily easier to read now).
12       - re-arrange calculation in THSICE_SOLVE4TEMP: move outside of i,j loops
13       iteration loop and call to S/R THSICE_GET_BULKF & THSICE_GET_EXF.
14    o verification/lab_sea:
15      - overhaul of the forward model experiments. The main motivation
16        for this revision is that lab_sea has proven quite fragile (when
17        changing the sea-ice code, and switching platforms) to a point
18        when failures were very hard to attribute to specific code problems.
19      - the suspected reason for this fragility is noise amplification by evp so,
20        to start with, we decided to replace evp with lsr in the main experiment.
21      - the input.lsr experiment thus became obsolete and was removed.
22      - it was replaced with the input.fd experiment that uses an
23        analytical "free drift" solution as the ice velocity field.
24      - Taken together, input (lsr), input.fd (free drift) and input.hb87 (evp)
25        will hopefully allow us to discriminate problems due to dynamic solvers
26        from problems due to the thermodynamic code. input.salt_plume (lsr) allows
27        us to test additional options, along with the salt plume package.
28      - Finally a pickup was generated (at the end of a one year run) to
29        make the tests more representative of an actual model run. Previously
30        the tests starting point was a 1m thickness of ice everywhere.
31    o pkg/seaice:
32      - introducing S\R seaice_freedrift.F that compute the
33        analytical solution to an approximate ice momentum
34        equation (i.e. the simple stress/coriolis balance).
35      - define SEAICE_ALLOW_FREEDRIFT to trigger the computation
36        of the free drift velocity field, and enable its use.
37        To actually use the free drift solution as the model ice
38        velocity field set SEAICEuseFREEDRIFT to .TRUE. in data.seaice.
39    o move "useOASIS" from PARAMS.h to EEPARAMS.h and read it from "eedata"
40    
41    checkpoint62l (2010/10/04)
42    o pkg/seaice:
43      -fix the USE_ORIGINAL_SBI version (for variable freezing point);
44      -use "celsius2K" in SEAICE_VARIABLE_FREEZING_POINT and in new
45       version (with USE_ORIGINAL_SBI undef);
46    o add hooks for new packages OASIS, the package will follow
47      (hooks exclude the seaice pkg for now)
48    o pkg/autodiff: ALLOW_AUTODIFF_WHTAPEIO
49      Option to use mdsio_read_whalos.F/mdsio_write_whalos.F,
50      rather than mdsio_readvector.F/mdsio_writevector.F, within
51      adread_adwrite.F to read/write adjoint-related tapes to disk.
52    o eesupp and pkg/mdsio: ALLOW_WHIO
53      Option to write/read 2D fields to files including tiles halos.
54      The main purpose is for adjoint related "tape I/O".
55      The secondary purpose is for debugging phases.
56      A word on those rather specifically intended purposes.
57      The code was meant to be stripped down to the bare minimum.
58      Typically, there is a unique and basic mapping to the global
59      buffer (tile by tile, then proc by proc, then level by level), and
60      byteswaps and meta-files are omitted. Indeed the (*_WH*) code is not
61      meant to generate user friendly outputs of various shapes and forms.
62      Rather it is intended, for the knowledgeabale developers,
63      to be largely independent of the many mdsio options, to allow
64      outputs of tiles+halos in debugging phases and in adjoint runs,
65      and to allow some flexibility in tuning (adoint) I/O depending on each
66      file system behavior. With regard to tuning, most of the potential knobs
67      (to leave files open, to allocate the I/O indep. of usesinglecpuio,
68      to specify directories, to specify the typical size of I/O calls, etc.)
69      are not yet included, and will be added if they prove useful.
70    o pkg/seaice:
71       fix uninitialised arrays in USE_ORIGINAL_SBI version of seaice_solve4temp.F
72    o pkg/seaice:
73       new S/R seaice_solve4temp.F: this is the merged version of Ian Fenty
74       code (seaice_budget_ice_if.F) which enable to recover old standard
75       code (seaice_budget_ice.F) when option USE_ORIGINAL_SBI is defined.
76       temporary: add "#define USE_ORIGINAL_SBI" at the top of seaice_solve4temp.F.
77    o model/src (rStar):
78       use simple average (not area weighted) of rStarFac at U,V point when using
79       vectorInvariant and selectKEscheme=1,3 (consistent with mom. vertical advection)
80       update output of exp. fizhi-cs-32x32x40 and fizhi-cs-aqualev20.
81    
82    checkpoint62k (2010/09/17)
83    o adjoint
84       * changed verification/global_ocean.cs32x15 ; adjoint now tests
85         Adams-Bashforth 3 + NLFS + RSTAR
86       * some more modifs required for ECCO-GODAE v4
87    o pkg/seaice
88       add SEAICE_AGE_VOL option to use volume instead of area for
89       integrating SEAICE_AGE
90  o model/src:  o model/src:
91     first check-in of sigma & hybrid-sigma coordinate code ; also includes     first check-in of sigma & hybrid-sigma coordinate code ; also includes
92     non-linear free-surface parts ; but pressure-gradient not yet coded.     non-linear free-surface parts ; but pressure-gradient not yet coded.
