4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o pkg/ctrl:
8      - change behavior of xx_${varname}period to be analogous to exf-conventions:
9        xx_${varname}period =   0.,  means time-independent control part
10        xx_${varname}period = -12., means one-year-periodic monthly control part
11      - introduce helper routine ctrl_init_rec (part of ctrl_init.F) to
12        clean up ctrl_init a little, remove unused variables
13      - move "call cal_GetMonthsRec" from s/r ctrl_get_gen to s/r ctrl_get_gen_rec
14    
15    checkpoint62u (2011/03/15)
16    o model/src:
17      - for the adjoint, change NonLin-FreeSurf initialisation sequence: fill-in
18        h0Fac from INITIALISE_FIXED and reset hFac to h0Fac in INITIALISE_VARIA ;
19      - in initialise_varia.F (except for ALLOW_DEPTH_CONTROL) remove 2nd call to
20        INI_DEPTHS, INI_MASKS_ETC & INI_LINEAR_PHISURF.
21    o pkg/ctrl/obcs/ecco:
22      - remove obsolete, unused, and partially broken code:
23        ctrl_obcsvol/ctrl_obcsbal/ctrl_volflux and code within
24        ALLOW_CTRL_OBCS_BALANCE
25      - put a stop statement into ecco/cost_obcsvol.F, but also add
26        cost_obcsvol to ecco_ad_diff.list
27    o pkg/ecco: fix counting cost function contributions for obcs (code
28      by Matt M.) and diffkr for diagnostics
29    o pkg/ecco, pkg/ctrl, pkg/grdchk:
30      add cost penalty terms for initial uvel, vvel, eta controls
31      and I/O for prior error files
32    o pkg/mdsio:
33       move mds_check4file.F from eesupp/src to mdsio_check4file.F ; add option
34       (new argument) to check for tiled file in mdsioLocalDir : this fix the
35       restart from pickup_som , pickup_dic (& dic_co2atm) with mdsioLocalDir.
36    o pkg/ctrl:
37     - ctrl_obcsbal.F, ctrl_obcsvol.F: replace last calls of ctrl_getrec by
38       ctrl_get_gen_rec, put a stop statement into ctrl_getrec. Remove
39       unused and superfluous variables
40     - ctrl_get_gen_rec.F: catch the case of xx_genperiod=0.
41    o pkg/ecco
42     - enable adjoint of Stevens OB
43    o pkg/ctrl/ecco/grdchk:
44      - remove global declaration of tmpfldx/yz and tmpfldx/yz2.
45        Fortunately, we do not have any tests for the numerous cpp-flagged
46        option of "obcs as control parameters" so we will never know
47        if this is an improvement (but at least now things compile).
48      - remove an obsolete initialization from ecco_cost_init_barfiles.F
49      - fix some problems within never used ifdefs to make the code compile
50    o pkg/obcs:
51     - Refine Interior mask definition to work with more complex OB (e.g.
52       if OB_Ie < OB_Iw); In case default setting is not sufficient, allows to
53       read in Interior mask from file. Check if Interior mask is consistent
54       with OB list of indices.
55    o pkg/seaice
56     - beginning code for a seaice tracer package,
57       but currently only used for seaice age: SEAICE_AGE
58       SEAICE_num = 4
59       iTracer = 1: area-weighted ice age
60               = 2: volume-weighted ice age
61               = 3, 4: template for one-year vs. multi-year ice
62       data.seaice has new namelist SEAICE_PARM03 for arrays related to
63       SEAICE_num
64    
65    checkpoint62t (2011/03/05)
66    o pkg/obcs:
67     - obcs_apply_uv.F: change to a 2 steps method, first tangential component;
68       then normal component. This ensures that the normal component is set
69       correctly even when it conficts with tangential setting from an other OB.
70       Affects results of test-experiment seaice_obcs: update the output.txt
71    o pkg/obcs:
72     - add code to monitor statistics of dynamical fields at OB.
73     - take OBCS_BALANCE code out of obcs_calc.F into new S/R OBCS_BALANCE_FLOW :
74       - fix to OBCS_BALANCE code (right hFac ; deal with simple OB intersection).
75       - change default: balance the Net inflow through all OB (instead of balancing
76         each OB separately); keep the old method if setting OBC_balanceFacX < 0.
77     - switch on useOBCSbalance in dome experiment: only correct Western OB outflow
78       to match Nortern OB inflow (OBCS_balanceFacN=0).
79    o pkg/seaice:
80     - redefined actual sea ice age to be ICEAGE/HEFF ifdef SEAICE_AGE_VOL
81    o pkg/seaice (seaice_growth v 1.113):
82     - reverting seaice_growth to v 1.111 in order to have code with exact bit
83       compatibility with MITgcm_contrib/ifenty/Fenty_seaice_thermo_code_merge
84       CPP option SEAICE_OCN_MELT_ACT_ON_AREA removed in v 1.112 is reintroduced
85       runtime flag SEAICEareaFormula is kept but is inactive
86    o model/src:
87     - add new param to scale curvilinear grid distance and area when using
88       a different sphere radius from the grid-files.
89     - test/check multi-threads EXCH applied to local variable (cg2d_x)
90    o adjoint:
91     - enable adjoint of Stevens OB
92     - add dummy_in_dynamics to enable extraction of ADJrhoinsitu
93       (a bit delicate because of potentially modified adj. common block structure;
94       current switch is ALLOW_AUTODIFF_MONITOR_DIAG, could be changed later)
95    
96    checkpoint62s (2011/02/15)
97    o pkg/seaice (seaice_growth v 1.112):
98     - introduce SEAICEareaFormula run time parameter, which selects the recipe for
99       computing the ice cover tendency from effective thickness tendencies. Include
100       Ian Fenty's formula.
101     - remove 'undef SEAICE_OCN_MELT_ACT_ON_AREA' which may now be achieved using
102       SEAICEareaFormula.
103     - simplify notations for the various d_HEFF/d_AREA terms.
104    o pkg/gmredi:
105     - add Boundary-Value-Problem bolus transport (Ferrari etal, OM 2010) code
106       from Christopher Wolfe (UCSD); add partial cell factor in vertical derivative;
107       add a verification test-run (front_relax.bvp) to test GM_useBVP.
108    o pkg/seaice (seaice_growth v 1.111):
109     - for SEAICE_DO_OPEN_WATER_GROWTH, replace Gael's implementation with Ian's.
110     - the new SEAICE_DO_OPEN_WATER_MELT allows open-water air-sea heat fluxes to
111       also melt ice.
112    o pkg/seaice:
113     - McPhee formula for Ice-Ocean fluxes (provided by Ian Fenty).
114     - can be used by #define MCPHEE_OCEAN_ICE_HEAT_FLUX in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h
115    o pkg/cheapaml:
116     - from Nico Wienders: New version of this package.
117    o pkg/flt:
118     - add CPP options to prevent floats to re-enter the opposite side of
119       a periodic domain (default: keep periodicity)
120    o pkg/gmredi:
121     - apply exchange to GM_PsiX,GM_PsiY to get valid values near CS-corners
122       (needed for multi-dim advection).
123     - switch on GM Advective form in global_ocean.cs32x15 and update output.txt
124    o model/src:
125     - fix wrong re-setting of addMass array (ALLOW_ADDFLUID) for atmospheric run.
126    o tutorial_tracer_adjsens
127     - extend to NLFS and replace maskC by hFacC
128       (change reference output accordingly)
129    
130    checkpoint62r (2011/01/24)
131    o testreport:
132     - add option -deloutp (-do) to remove output file after successful run
133     - add option -mfile (-mf) for MPI machile-file and for each test-exp,
134       extract exact list of procs from this file ; adjust COMMAND by
135       replacing TR_MFILE & TR_NPROC with local machile-file & Nb of MPI procs.
136    o pkg/ecco: replace old ineffective way of penalizing deviations from
137      first guess (of obcs) with code by Matt Mazloff
138    o pkg/ctrl: add code that allows the use of ALLOW_OBCS?_CONTROL without
139      exf/cal
140      - ctrl_init: fix initialisation (computation of diffrec) for obcs-ctrl
141        and handle case of obcs?period == 0
142        Not affected by these changes: There is still an inconsistency in
143        the computation of start/endrec for the obcs variables for ALLOW_CAL
144        defined (see comment by Menemenlis, 7-Mar-2003)
145      - make S/R ctrl_get_gen_rec return something meaningful even if
146        ALLOW_CAL is not defined
147      - ctrl_getobcs?: simplify code so that it does not need to use
148                       S/R exf_swapfields
149    o testreport:
150       allow to test MPI with different number of processors for each experiment:
151       create file "SIZE.h.mpi" in each build dir.
152       Note: update of "-command" argument not yet implemented.
153    o model/src, pkg/autodiff, pkg/ecco, pkg/seaice:
154      alleviate the need for additional 3D tapes when using
155      the non-inear free surface in the adjoint. This is done
156      by adding an 'update' of hfacc etc. to their current
157      value at the beginning of forward_step.F.
158    o pkg/seaice
159      seaice_lsr: move stress-divergence computations out of outer pseudo-
160      timestepping loop
161    o pkg/obcs/obcs_prescribe_read.F: move 'CALL OBCS_EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD'
162      up, so that the calls of the ctrl_* subroutines are really at the end
163      of the routine.
164    o pkg/gmredi:
165      allow to specify a 2-D horizontal map and a 1-D vertical profil
166      as scaling factor for Isopycnal diffusivity (Redi) and GM diffusivity.
167    o pkg/seaice:
168      move lsr iterations from seaice_dynsolver to seaice_lsr.
169    o pkg/seaice:
170      reduce memory footprint of seaice mutldim advection tapes,
171      by using a 2D tape independent of the generic_advdiff ones,
172      and setting GAD_AREA=1 etc. rather than GAD_AREA=101 etc.
173    
174    checkpoint62q (2010/12/29)
175    o model/src:
176      - check horizontal grid-spacing for unset or zero/negative values.
177      - change AD test hs94.1x64x5 to be truly a 2-D set-up.
178    o pkg/flt:
179      - use (recent) mdsio S/R MDS_READVEC_LOC instead of local FLT_MDSREADVECTOR
180      - precision of input and output files set according to readBinaryPrec
181        and writeBinaryPrec (previously always 64.b), pickup remains at 64 bits.
182      - initial float position from tiled file was not converted to index space
183        (looks like a bug): fixed to make it similar to initial pos. global file.
184    o global_ocean.cs32x15:
185       change SIZE.h of AD set-up to get same tiling as with MPI.
186       Update output_adm, output_adm.thsice (pass@14) & output_adm.seaice (fail@11)
187    o model/src:
188       add flag to control printing of domain fields (bathymetry, hFac ...) in
189       ini_mask_etc (call to plot_fieds_xy*).
190    o pkg/thsice:
191       if useEXF, some forcing fields are not valid in overlap: fixed by computing
192       over the interior only + apply EXCH at the end (like with SEAICE advection).
193    o pkg/mdsio:
194      - add 2 arguments to S/R MDS_PASS_R4/8toRL/S for overlap size of buffer
195        to copy to/from, so that it can be used to replace MDS_PASS_WH_R8toRL/RS.
196      - change barrier call for safe multi-threads access to 3-D shared buffer.
197      - MDS_READ/WRITEVEC_LOC use buffers from MDSIO_BUFF_3D.h (instead of local ones)
198      - replace call to MDS_PASS_WH_R4/8toRL with call to MDS_PASS_R4/8toRL and
199        remove the 4 S/R MDS_PASS_WH_R4/8toRL/S.
200    o pkg/flt:
201      - add fourth-order Runge-Kutta integration
202      - add basic exch2 support (only 1 facet supported so far!)
203    o pkg/mdsio+rw:
204      new S/R to read local (or tile independent) vector (read counterpart of
205       mds_writevec_loc, and front-end write_glvec_rl/rs).
206    o global_ocean.cs32x15: additional input_ad.seaice experiment
207        that uses pkg/seaice rather than pkg/thsice.
208        (using multidim advection for seaice)
209    o towards more F95 syntax for array specification in namelist:
210      - change "data.diagnostics" (data.ptracers was changed before checkpoint62p)
211        of all verification experiments.
212           e.g.:    line: fields(1,3)='ETAN    ','ETANSQ  ',
213          was changed to: fields(1:2,3)='ETAN    ','ETANSQ  ',
214      - finish adding "-DNML_EXTENDED_F77" to DEFINES list in pgf77 and g77 optfiles
215    o global_ocean.cs32x15: additional input.seaice experiment
216        that uses pkg/seaice rather than pkg/thsice.
217    
218    checkpoint62p (2010/12/17)
219    o pkg/thsice: rename (ad tape index) iicekey as ticekey, and move it
220        to THSICE_SIZE.h to avoid conflict with pkg/seaice.
221    o pkg/seaice: add seaice_diffusion.f seaice_map_thsice.f to adjoint.
222        allow for use of multim. advection in seaice adjoint.
223    o pkg/seaice: add diagnostics for snow precipitation and sublimation flux
224      - first attempt to close budgets by taking into account the freshwater
225        flux implied by the sublimation of snow and ice. So far only the
226        volume budget is closed, turn on with soon-to-be-retired-again CPP-Flag
227        SEAICE_ADD_SUBLIMATION_TO_FWBUDGET
228    o eesupp/src:
229      new S/R with new option (NML_EXTENDED_F77) to change array specification
230      from F95 standard to commonly accepted extended F77 form.
231      This would allow to use F95 syntax in namelist (needed with gfortran 4.4.5)
232      and to revert back to the original syntax (with -DNML_EXTENDED_F77)
233      for less tolerant f77 compiler (e.g., pgf77, g77).
234    o globalFiles:
235      commented out in parameter file "data" since it's not safe with MPI
236      (e.g., wrong on aces); keep it if useSingleCpuIO=T (but not doing much
237      in this case); no longer commented out in restart test (tst_2+2).
238    o add adTapeDir to specify a special directory where adjoint tapes are
239      written/read (adread_adwrite.F). adTapeDir is specified in data/PARM05
240      and cannot be used together with mdsioLocalDir.
241    o nesting pkgs:
242      - packages_init_variables : put call to OBCS_INIT_VARIABLES in last position
243      - update Gianmaria's Nesting pkgs (from Contrib/nesting_sannino)
244      - add parameter files + utils dir + output from short run on beagle.
245    o pkg/seaice:
246        fix seaice_growth.F store directives; update results of exp. lab_sea.ad
247    o pkg/seaice: explicitly store tsurfloc in seaice_solve4temp.F to avoid
248      unnecessary copying in adjoint code, requires new parameter NMAX_ITER
249    
250    checkpoint62o (2010/11/25)
251    o pkg/exf:
252      - change CPP option EXF_VERBOSE to run-time logical param exf_verbose.
253    o pkg/seaice:
254      - seaice_ocean_stress: split a loop for better vectorization of the
255        adjoint code
256      - seaice_growth.F: fix bug in conservation of freshwater connected to
257        capping of heff, put contribution into d_HEFFbyNEG
258      - replace irritating parameters SEAICE_latentWater/Ice and SEAICE_sensHeat
259        by something more sensible (parameters that are what their name implies)
260      - change some defaults, so that by default exf-parameters are used for
261        things like rhoAir, cpAir,latent/sensible heat parameters, in order
262        to reproduce the old results, many data.seaice now contain funny values
263        for cpAir and latent heat of sublimation
264    o packages_readparms.F: move exf_readparms up in line so that
265        exf-parameters are visible for other packages (e.g. seaice)
266    o debugMode & debugLevel=2:
267      - differentiate between debugMode & debugLevel=2:
268        debugMode: controls printing of debug messages (sequence of S/R calls).
269        debugLevel: controls printing of algorithm intermediate results and stats.
270      - remove "if debugLevel=2 => debugMode" but keep "debugMode =>  debugLevel=2";
271        => allows to print debug-stats without all sequence of call messages.
272      - switch control of debug print from debugLevel to debugMode in many S/R.
273    o pkg/obcs (obcs-sponge):
274        fix bug that was introduced on Oct 25 (in dynamics.F v1.151): put back the
275        call to OBCS_PRESCRIBE_EXCHANGES (need to exch gU,gV when using obcs-sponge)
276    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
277      - record overlap minimum size for each advection scheme;
278      - refine criteria on overlap minimum size;
279      - check and stop (in gad_check) if overlap size is too small.
280    o pkg/obcs:
281      - with ptracers: remove multiple calls to obcs_apply_ptracer (only done
282        once, in ptracers_implicit.F)
283      - with seaice: remove test on empty file name in obcs_apply_seaice (always
284        apply OB values when tile has OB)
285    o model/src, coriolis setting:
286      - integer parameter "selectCoriMap" (=0,1,2) replaces 3 logical
287        useConstantF, useBetaPlaneF, useSphereF ; can now read coriolis from
288        files (selectCoriMap=3) with any grid.
289      - add parameter "fPrime" for constant second Coriolis coeff (default=0).
290    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F:
291        a few cosmetic changes that reduce the number of lines of code
292    o pkg/obcs: add boundary conditions following Stevens (1990)
293      - the code follows old MOM/NAOSIM code
294      - so far it is only implemented for the eastern and western boundaries
295        and NOT for pTracers
296    o pkg/rbcs:
297      - replace rbcsInIter by rbcsForcingOffset, the time in seconds at the
298        beginning of the first rbcs forcing period.
299      - add option rbcsSingleTimeFiles that makes rbcs read forcing data like the
300        offline package, i.e., one file per time, labeled by iteration number;
301        deltaTrbcs sets the timestep with which the data was generated;
302        rbcsIter0 is the forcing iteration corresponding to rbcsForcingOffset.
303      - rbcsForcingCycle=0 makes forcing non-cyclic.
304      - make arithmetic safe for negative times and odd forcing periods.
305    
306    checkpoint62n (2010/11/09)
307    o pkg/seaice:
308        fix masking in free-drift S/R ; update results of exp. lab_sea.fd
309    o pkg/obcs:
310       New S/R to copy tracer value from the OB location to narrow band region
311        (width = same as overlap) beyond the OB: preserve OB value (needed for
312        high-order scheme) which were overwritten by EXCH call if in overlap
313        region. Applied to theta, salt, ptracer and advected seaice variables.
314       With seaice: use maskInC in similar way as in gad_advection.F,
315        in seaice_advection.F and advect.F.
316       Update output of experiment seaice_obcs and change exp4 to test OBCS with
317        4th order Adv.Scheme. for pasive salt and ptracer.
318    o tools/genmake2:
319      - when looking for an optfile (not specified), only search for Fortran compiler
320        (remove sym-link test + setting of CPP + makedepend check + C-compiler check)
321      - in get_fortran_c_namemangling: use "$CC $CFLAG" to compile C test programm
322        (instead of "$MAKE genmake_test.o" since an existing Makefile can be wrong)
323      - set default for CPP to "cpp -traditional -P" (was the case without specifying
324        an optfile, but otherwise default was just "cpp".
325      - comment out PLATFORM=$p_PLATFORM (no idea where p_PLATFORM comes from)
326      - when "CC" is not set in the optfile, look for possible C compiler
327        (instead of just setting CC=cc)
328      - put back version v.169 modif (from 2008/02/15), was dropped in v.173 changes:
329        => add a ".F" to ".o" rule for source files with no "#include" (such as
330           port_rand.F); otherwise, default ignores FOPTIM and just uses FFLAGS.
331      - move gfortran before g77 in list of possible Fortran compiler (consistent
332        with reference compiler switch from g77 to gfortran)
333    o pkg/seaice:
334      o remove SEAICE_OLD_AND_BAD_DISCRETIZATION-code, add a test to
335        seaice_check that stops the model, when the CPP flag is used.
336      o seaice_growth.F: make capping of ice volume conserving by returning the
337        capped ice as freshwater to EmPmR. This does not change the verification
338        experiments but will change runs where the capping is acutally active
339    o change reference platform+compiler from faulks+g77 to baudelaire+gfortran
340      (except the 2 fizhi test exp.); update output of exp.: bottom_ctrl_5x5,
341         global_ocean.cs32x15 (icedyn, thsice, AD thsice), global_ocean_ebm (AD),
342         lab_sea (fd, hb87, salt_plume), MLAdjust (3/5) and vermix (dd)
343    o tools/genmake2:
344      - merge genmake_warnings & genmake_errors into 1 log file: "genmake.log")
345      - change DUMPSTATE default to false (can use "-ds" option to switch it to T)
346      - clean previous genmake log files before anything else.
347      - change Makefile to remove testreport log files (*.tr_log) and genmake log
348        files only with "CLEAN" target (instead of "Clean");
349    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
350      Change OBCS in multiDim advection (gad_advection.F):
351       Use maskInC to prevent intermediate update of tracer-field in OB regions,
352       thus keeping current-time-step OB values; and remove the call to OBCS_APPLY
353       which were applying future time-step OB values.
354      This way, all explicit calculations use current-time-step OB values
355       (simpler and more consistent).
356      Affects results when set-up uses time-varying OBC and multi-dim advection;
357       update output of experiment seaice_obcs.
358    o pkg/seaice:
359      move OPTIONS (formerly locally defined) to SEAICE_OPTIONS.h:
360       this includes SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY (+ SEAICE_DO_OPEN_WATER_GROWTH &
361         SEAICE_OCN_MELT_ACT_ON_AREA ) and SEAICE_SOLVE4TEMP_LEGACY.
362      Default (pkg/seaice/SEAICE_OPTIONS.h) is to define SEAICE_SOLVE4TEMP_LEGACY
363       but leave SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY undef ; For now, keep verification exp
364       unchanged (SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY defined in */code*/SEAICE_OPTIONS.h)
365    o pkg aim (2010/10/26):
366      - Introduce ALLOW_INSOLATION, moving toward a more general incoming solar radiation
367        formulation with obliquity, eccentricity, ... as run-time parameters,
368      - Introduce diagnostics for top-of-the-atmaophere incoming solar radiation and
369        upward shortwave radition at the surface (all-sky and clear-sky).
370    o pkg/obcs:
371      - writing sections with globalFiles=T does not work: switch to tiled-files
372        when writing sections for OBCS (change pkg/rw/write_rec.F accordingly).
373      - fix index bug (OB_Ie -> OB_Iw_) in obcs_apply_uvice.F
374      - apply OBCS_SEAICE_COMPUTE_UVICE to both uice and vice at all obcs
375    
376    checkpoint62m (2010/10/21)
377    o pkg/seaice: vectorize seaice_solve4temp.F
378      - move iterations loops outside of i/j-loops
379      - requires 2D arrays for TB and effConduct
380      - add 2D iceOrNot to replace HICE_ACTUAL.GT.0, as HICE_ACTUAL is
381        modified in this routine
382      - a little bit of clean up, adjusting indentation, etc.
383      - replaced a few TEN**a by exp(a*log(10.)) in new code for better
384        performance and '**TWO' by '**2' (because TWO is a float),
385        replaced ONE, ZERO
386    o eesupp/src:
387       fix flow dir for exch1_z_RX_cube, exch1_uv_RX_cube & exch1_bg_RX_cube
388    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F
389      Revision 1.89 of seaice_growth.F completes the overall october 2010 revision and
390      merging process. The merged routine has two branches, and one activates the 'evolution'
391      branch by setting SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY to undef (at the top of the routine for now).
392      In summary, here is what the '10/10 revision' did consist of
393        part 1: seaice_growth.F revisions 1.71 to 1.75
394          - Preliminary seaice_growth.F clean-up, keeping test results strictly unchanged.
395            The emphasis here was on improving readability (e.g. by trying to use meaningful
396            variable names) and modularity (e.g. by adding arrays to store heff etc. updates).
397        part 1.5:
398          - revising the lab_sea experiment to make it a more useful (i.e. stable
399            and representative of an actual model run). This was done by generating a
400            (winter) pickup to start from, switching back the main experiment dynamic
401            solver from evp to lsr, having one of the experiments use the free drift solution.
402        part 2: seaice_growth.F revisions 1.76 to 1.85
403          - Sorting out hard-coded constants that prevented heat and fresh water conservation.
404          - Sorting out the various fields units and sign (set early on and reset at the end)
405            to avoid numerous scalings/re-scalings. By v1.85 the basic unit for ice, heat and
406            fresh water stock is 'effective ice meters', and >0 implies more ice/snow.
407          - Using tendency terms arrays (d_HEFF* etc.) to alleviate remaining code locks,
408            and simplifying logical expressions to further improve readibility.
409        part 3: seaice_growth.F revisions 1.86 to 1.89
410          - Re-organize the blocks of code more logically.
411          - Merging the '_if.F' pieces that add something new.
412    o pkg/thsice:
413      - vectorize thsice_solve4temp and thsice_get_exf.
414        Problem: thsice_solve4temp has an unvectorizable statement that
415        might also be problematic for TAF
416      - thsice_get_exf: add the ALLOW_BULK_LARGEYEAGER04 CPP-flag. This
417        does not change the verifcation experiment, but will change all
418        experiments that have this flag undefined (not tested in verification);
419        a little reorganization to save a few 2D fields and recomputations
420      - 1st step of revisiting thsice adjoint (major recomp. sorted out)
421      - 2nd step:  fix some store dirs
422        o seems to work somewhat, i.e. using ifort but not g77
423        o likely cause are incomplete init. or recomputation
424        o start verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input_ad.thsice
425    o pkg/obcs: add support for exch2
426      - the position of the boundary and prescribed values are specified using
427        a global domain with exch2 facets stacked
428        - in x for N,S boundaries (like W2_mapIO=-1)
429        - in y for E,W boundaries (so E,W boundaries do not overlap)
430    o pkg/mdsio: add support for writing global sections with exch2
431        file layout is as for obcs described above:
432        - for x-z sections, facets are stacked in x (like W2_mapIO=-1)
433        - for y-z sections, facets are stacked in y
434    o pkg/thsice:
435       - change a few routines for better vectorization: thsice_albedo.F,
436         thsice_step_temp.F, and in thsice_calc_thickn.F. Results are
437         not affected, but in particular the latter routine has changed
438         dramatically (not necessarily easier to read now).
439       - re-arrange calculation in THSICE_SOLVE4TEMP: move outside of i,j loops
440       iteration loop and call to S/R THSICE_GET_BULKF & THSICE_GET_EXF.
441    o verification/lab_sea:
442      - overhaul of the forward model experiments. The main motivation
443        for this revision is that lab_sea has proven quite fragile (when
444        changing the sea-ice code, and switching platforms) to a point
445        when failures were very hard to attribute to specific code problems.
446      - the suspected reason for this fragility is noise amplification by evp so,
447        to start with, we decided to replace evp with lsr in the main experiment.
448      - the input.lsr experiment thus became obsolete and was removed.
449      - it was replaced with the input.fd experiment that uses an
450        analytical "free drift" solution as the ice velocity field.
451      - Taken together, input (lsr), input.fd (free drift) and input.hb87 (evp)
452        will hopefully allow us to discriminate problems due to dynamic solvers
453        from problems due to the thermodynamic code. input.salt_plume (lsr) allows
454        us to test additional options, along with the salt plume package.
455      - Finally a pickup was generated (at the end of a one year run) to
456        make the tests more representative of an actual model run. Previously
457        the tests starting point was a 1m thickness of ice everywhere.
458    o pkg/seaice:
459      - introducing S\R seaice_freedrift.F that compute the
460        analytical solution to an approximate ice momentum
461        equation (i.e. the simple stress/coriolis balance).
462      - define SEAICE_ALLOW_FREEDRIFT to trigger the computation
463        of the free drift velocity field, and enable its use.
464        To actually use the free drift solution as the model ice
465        velocity field set SEAICEuseFREEDRIFT to .TRUE. in data.seaice.
466    o move "useOASIS" from PARAMS.h to EEPARAMS.h and read it from "eedata"
467    
468    checkpoint62l (2010/10/04)
469    o pkg/seaice:
470      -fix the USE_ORIGINAL_SBI version (for variable freezing point);
471      -use "celsius2K" in SEAICE_VARIABLE_FREEZING_POINT and in new
472       version (with USE_ORIGINAL_SBI undef);
473    o add hooks for new packages OASIS, the package will follow
474      (hooks exclude the seaice pkg for now)
475    o pkg/autodiff: ALLOW_AUTODIFF_WHTAPEIO
476      Option to use mdsio_read_whalos.F/mdsio_write_whalos.F,
477      rather than mdsio_readvector.F/mdsio_writevector.F, within
478      adread_adwrite.F to read/write adjoint-related tapes to disk.
479    o eesupp and pkg/mdsio: ALLOW_WHIO
480      Option to write/read 2D fields to files including tiles halos.
481      The main purpose is for adjoint related "tape I/O".
482      The secondary purpose is for debugging phases.
483      A word on those rather specifically intended purposes.
484      The code was meant to be stripped down to the bare minimum.
485      Typically, there is a unique and basic mapping to the global
486      buffer (tile by tile, then proc by proc, then level by level), and
487      byteswaps and meta-files are omitted. Indeed the (*_WH*) code is not
488      meant to generate user friendly outputs of various shapes and forms.
489      Rather it is intended, for the knowledgeabale developers,
490      to be largely independent of the many mdsio options, to allow
491      outputs of tiles+halos in debugging phases and in adjoint runs,
492      and to allow some flexibility in tuning (adoint) I/O depending on each
493      file system behavior. With regard to tuning, most of the potential knobs
494      (to leave files open, to allocate the I/O indep. of usesinglecpuio,
495      to specify directories, to specify the typical size of I/O calls, etc.)
496      are not yet included, and will be added if they prove useful.
497    o pkg/seaice:
498       fix uninitialised arrays in USE_ORIGINAL_SBI version of seaice_solve4temp.F
499    o pkg/seaice:
500       new S/R seaice_solve4temp.F: this is the merged version of Ian Fenty
501       code (seaice_budget_ice_if.F) which enable to recover old standard
502       code (seaice_budget_ice.F) when option USE_ORIGINAL_SBI is defined.
503       temporary: add "#define USE_ORIGINAL_SBI" at the top of seaice_solve4temp.F.
504    o model/src (rStar):
505       use simple average (not area weighted) of rStarFac at U,V point when using
506       vectorInvariant and selectKEscheme=1,3 (consistent with mom. vertical advection)
507       update output of exp. fizhi-cs-32x32x40 and fizhi-cs-aqualev20.
508    
509    checkpoint62k (2010/09/17)
510    o adjoint
511       * changed verification/global_ocean.cs32x15 ; adjoint now tests

513       * some more modifs required for ECCO-GODAE v4
514    o pkg/seaice
515       add SEAICE_AGE_VOL option to use volume instead of area for
516       integrating SEAICE_AGE
