4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7  o pkg/seaice :  o model/src:
8    - simplify McPhee tapering, and allow to use it with SEAICEturbFluxFormula.EQ.    - fix missing dPhiNH in pressure_for_eos.F (case: selectP_inEOS_Zc=3)
9    1 or 2, using newly added run time parameter SEAICE_availHeatTaper.  o pkg/seaice:
10      - add missing checks for SEAICE_ALLOW_KRYLOV and SEAICE_ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG
11    o pkg/seaice:
12      - add basal stress as parameterisation for grounding ice
13        following Lemieux et al. (2015)
14      - turn on by setting new parameter SEAICEbasalDragK2 to a value
15        larger than 0. Lemieux et al. (2015) recommend 15.
16      - The adjoint complains with extra recomputations so there is also a
17        new cpp-flag SEAICE_ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG that is undefined by default in
18        order to postpone the problem
19      - compile the new code in lab_sea
20    o verification/halfpipe_streamice:
21      - update both TAF and OpenAD adm output (machine truncation differences)
22    
23    checkpoint65v (2016/04/08)
24    o verification/advect_xz:
25      - increase overlap size from 3 to 4 and add new secondary test for PQM
26        advection scheme (with mono & wino limiter).
27      - change main exp. to test PPM (with weno limiter) adv.scheme on Temp.
28    o model/src:
29      - new parameters "top_Pres" & "seaLev_Z" (replacing Ro_SeaLevel and recently
30        added phi0Ref) to set vertical axis origin and phiRef origin;
31        keep Ro_SeaLevel for backward compatibility (with a warning).
32       According to coordinate and fluid type:
33        OCN in Z: top_Pres(Ref) (=rhoConst*PhiRef(1)), seaLev_Z (=rF(1), @ the top)
34        ATM in Z: top_Pres(Ref) (=rhoConst*PhiRef(1)), seaLev_Z (=rF(Nr+1) @ bottom)
35        OCN in P: top_Pres (=rF(Nr+1)), seaLev_Z (= PhiRef(Nr+1)/g, @ the top)
36        ATM in P: top_Pres (=rF(Nr+1)), seaLev_Z (= PhiRef(1)/g, @ the bottom)
37      - remove Ro_SeaLevel from ATM experiment parameter files;
38      - in tutorial_global_oce_in_p, remove Ro_SeaLevel and set top_Pres to the
39        complement; update output.txt (changes at machine truncation level).
40    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp.F
41      - simplify computation of deltaZ and zetaZ to simple averaging following
42        Bouillon et al. (2013). This removes a lot of code, but also changes
43        verification experiment lab_sea.hb87 -> updated
44    
45    checkpoint65u (2016/03/14)
46    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
47      - from Darren: add PPM and PQM advection schemes (number 40-42 and 50-52)
48        with 2 types of limiter (see: Engwirda & Kelley, submit. to JCP);
49        Note (from Darren): unlimited PPM/PQM scheme (40 & 50) are just for
50        testing and not for actual use.
51    o model/src:
52      - add parameter "phi0Ref" to specify reference [pressure/geo] potential at
53        origin r = rF(1);
54      - add options (parameter selectP_inEOS_Zc) to select which pressure to use
55        in EOS for height coordinate: enable to include NH Pressure or to use
56        more accurate pressure vertical profile; options not linked to EOS type
57        (as previously, e.g., JMD95P/JMD95Z) but set default according to EOS type;
58      - start to implement variable gravity (along vertical): for now, only with
59        z-coords (not even z*).
60      - add Ideal Gas equation of state for height coordinate.
61      - update OpenAD output (affected at machine truncation level) of exp:
62        global_ocean.90x40x15, OpenAD (std) and tutorial_global_oce_biogeo.
63    o pkg/exf:
64      - add ALLOW_EXF_OUTPUT_INTERP cpp switch to output the result
65        of exf interpolation (before any rescaling, rotation or interpolation
66        to velocity point) for each field that gets loaded from file. This option
67        identically mimics the input file organization (e.g. record numbers in year
68        by year input files) besides the change in horizontal grid.
69      - add rotateStressOnAgrid run-time switch so that wind stress fields
70        can be provided on the A-grid in zonal/meridional direction and
71        rotated on the fly. This only applies to the case when the exf
72        interpolation is off and rotateStressOnAgrid is false by default.
73    o model/src:
74      - rename internal parameter "useDynP_inEos_Zc" to "storePhiHyd4Phys" (since
75        it's also used with pkg/atm_phys) and add few more parameters (but still
76        inactive, src code yet to come)
77    
78    checkpoint65t (2016/02/10)
79    o pkg/atm_phys:
80      - from Ruth Geen: add optical depth dependence on CO2 concentration.
81    o model/src:
82      - fix vertical inter/extra-polation of density factor rhoFacF (for anelastic)
83        for the case setCenterDr=T (delRc set from "data"); add output of rhoFacC&F.
84        Update output of exp. deep_anelastic (changes at truncation level).
85    o tools:
86      - add a hack in "remove_comments_sed" (used only with TAF) for recent
87        version of OpenMPI (shipped with FC.23): comment out the new header
88        file "mpif-sizeof.h" which causes problems to TAF.
89    o pkg/seaice:
90      - change the termination criterion so that maxits (SEAICElinearIterMax)
91        has an effect
92      - unify iteration parameters for implicit solvers (JFNK and Picard)
93        SEAICEnonLinIterMax replaces SEAICEnewtonIterMax/NPSEUDOTIMESTEPS
94        SEAICElinearIterMax replaces SEAICEkrylovIterMax/SOLV_MAX_ITER
95        SEAICEpreLinIterMax replaces SOLV_MAX_ITER in preconditioner
96        SEAICEpreNL_IterMax replaces NPSEUDOTIMESTEPS in preconditioner
97        SEAICEnonLinTol     replaces JFNKgamma_nonlin
98      - remove S/R SEAICE_FGMRES_DRIVER and put content into S/R SEAICE_JFKN
99      - add new Picard-Krylov solver, compile with SEAICE_ALLOW_KRYLOV and
100        use with SEAICEuseKrylov
101    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F
102        fix small bug: replace zetaZ by zetaZloc in S/R seaice_lsr_rhsu/v; only
103        relevant if SEAICEuseStrImpCpl=T, and even then it does not seem to have
104        an effect.
105    o pkg/seaice: add two new parameters
106      - SEAICEuseLSR to simplify the logic in seaice_dynsolver (this
107        parameter is not in any namelist)
108      - SEAICEusrPicardAsPrecon to allow s/r seaice_lsr to be used as
109        a preconditioner for the non-linear Newton iteration of the JFNK
110        solver
111    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F: replace 1./SEAICE_deltaTdyn with recip_deltaT,
112      affects some experiments at truncation level:
113      - global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn (11 digits),
114      - global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice (11 digits),
115      - seaice_itd (12 digits), seaice_itd.lipscomb07 (12 digits) -> update
116      - also update global_ocean.cs32x15 adjoint and tangent-linear results
117    o pkg/salt_plume & pkg/thsice:
118      - for coupled  set-up with pkg/thsice in ATM and pkg/salt_plume in OCN,
119        connect salt_plume flux to ATM-OCN coupling pkgs interface:
120       a) in ATM: also cumulate salt-plume flux in S/R THSICE_SALT_PLUME (for
121         export to coupler interface) even without compiling pkg/salt_plume ;
122       b) in OCN: apply coupler salt-plume flux to pkg/salt_plume field
123         (saltPlumeFlux) just before exch call, in S/R SALT_PLUME_DO_EXCH.
124    o pkg/dic:
125      - use the updated seaice fraction (from seaice pkgs) for DIC forcing
126        instead of the previous time-step value ; done in new S/R DIC_FIELDS_UPDATE
127        called from the top of dic_biotic_forcing.F (instead of in DIC_FIELDS_LOAD);
128      - move also update with values from ATM-OCN Coupler in the same new S/R
129        (previously done in ocn_apply_import.F).
130    o tools/adjoint_options:
131      - specify explicitly "-f77" or "-f90" in default ad-optfile since TAF (default)
132        has been changed on Jan 14, 2016.
133    o pkg/ggl90:
134      - add alternative discretisation of vertical shear (off by default), to
135        compute the mean (@ grid-cell center) of vertical shear compon instead of
136        vertical shear of mean flow (@ grid-cell center).
137      - add correct parenthesis in ALLOW_GGL90_SMOOTH code to get the same truncated
138        results on adjacent faces of cubed-sphere grids; this fix the restart.
139    o pkg/atm_compon_interf:
140      - skip time-ave over cpl_atmSendFrq of Sea-Level Pressure (atmSLPr) and just
141        pass last value, stored directly before export to CPL ;
142        Note: this affects results of Coupled set-up where OCN uses useImportSLP=T
143      - remove atmSLPr from pickup files (no longer needed for restart)
144    
145    checkpoint65s (2016/01/13)
146    o eesupp & genmake2:
147       - first check for Function ETIME and, if it fails, then check for subroutine
148         ETIME and consistent output; use the appropriate version in timers.F
149    o model/src:
150      - to check restart test, add option to apply EXCH to U,V earlier, just before
151        integr_continuity; turned off by default.
152    o pkg/dic:
153      - remove CPP option USE_ATMOSCO2 (not needed)
154    o tools/tst_2+2:
155      - try to ignore difference between +0 and -0 in binary file, causing test
156        to fail for no good reason.
157    o eesupp & genmake2:
158      - put back modif from Jinxuan Zhu - change etime fct call to S/R call -
159        but also check (in genmake2) that test runs and returns meaningful results.
160    o coupler pkgs:
161      Finish implementation of optionally-exchanged variable switches (started on
162       Nov 12) with addition of few more exchanged fields, including 2-way exchange
163       of pkg/thsice vars to allow to use seaice dynamics (from pkg/seaice) & seaice
164       advection in OCN component; this requires sequential coupling.
165      coupler (pkg/atm_ocn_coupler):
166      - add argument msgUnit and iter number to CPL_SEND/RECV_ATM/OCN_FIELDS
167        routines (useful for debug).
168      - only export/import optionally exchanged fields (RunOff, seaice, Salt-Plume
169         flux, DIC fields) if corresponding switch is ON.
170      - add option to export RunOff to OCN (to use for DIC river input)
171      - add 2-way thSIce vars exchange; check for consistent cpl_sequential setting.
172      components (pkg/atm_ & ocn_compon_interf):
173      - to save memory space in ATM & OCN comp: add some #ifdef ALLOW_${PKG} around
174        optionally exchanged fields; add a check & stop in cpl_readparms.F.
175        ATMCPL.h: ALLOW_LAND for RunOff, ALLOW_THSICE for seaice, ALLOW_AIM for CO2;
176        OCNCPL.h: ALLOW_SALT_PLUME, ALLOW_DIC for DIC, ALLOW_THSICE for 2-W thsice.
177      - rename:   fracIce     -> sIceFrac_cpl (<- match coupler var name)
178        + in ATM: fracIceTime -> sIceFracTime ; seaIceTime -> sIceMassTime.
179      - add 2-way thSIce vars exchange ; add Salt-Plume flux ; add RunOff in OCN.
180      - hold in common block coupler optionally-exchanged variable switch
181        and set default "useImportXXX" accordingly; + check & stop if inconsistent.
182      - add diagnostics for all imported fields from coupler (in both OCN & ATM);
183        this is intended to replace the OCN cplFldtave.* output files (not updated
184        to contain new additional exchanged fields).
185    o pkg/dic:
186      - fix an other bug (also from 2014/08/30) in dic_atmos.F, in dic_int1=3 code.
187    o pkg/thsice:
188      - when coupled to ATM (useCoupler) with thSIce_skipThermo=T, skip reading
189        and writing of thsice pickup files.
190    o pkg/atm_compon_interf:
191      - move all field individual export-call out of cpl_export_import_data.F
192        into new S/R ATM_EXPORT_FIELDS
193    o pkg/atm_compon_interf:
194      - store state variables (for now, only thSIce fields) just before beeing
195        exported (in cpl_export_import_data.F, like on ocean side) instead of from
196        atm_store_my_data.F like all exported fluxes.
197      - new version of pickup_cpl: write field names into meta file and read meta
198        file to find field postion in pickup. Also only write/read fields meeded for
199        restart (same logic as main pickup file ; also using pickupStrictlyMatch)
200    o pkg/dic:
201      - fix bug (added on 2014/08/30) in dic_atmos.F for the case dic_int1= 2 or 3.
202    o pkg/seaice: add new parameter SEAICEpressReplFac to choose between
203        pressure replacement method (=1., default) or original Hibler (1979) (=0.)
204        value can be from domain [0,1] to average between the two methods
205    o pkg/atm_phys:
206      - allow to provide 2-d map of albedo and mixed-layer depth from files (but
207        hold fixed in time).
208    
209    checkpoint65r (2015/12/21)
210    o pkg/seaice:
211        fix bug in tridiagonal solvers for SEAICE_OLx/y>0, this affects the JFNK
212        solver (offline.dyn_jfnk) and global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice -> updated
213    o pkg/seaice:
214      - fix a bug in computing areaS in (J-J -> J-1) that affects runs
215        when SEAICEscaleSurfStress=.TRUE.,
216      - apply areaW and areaS in S/R seaice_calc_lhs
217    o pkg/atm_phys:
218      - add diagnostics for 3-D, Nr+1 levels diagnostics of radiative fluxes
219        (shortwave & longwave, net & downward) and diagnostics of temp. tendency
220        for individual contribution (convection, LSC cond, radiation)
221      - add Ruth Geen etal, GRL 2016, radiation options (see paper supp.
222        information); activated with: solar_exponent=0. and wv_exponent=-1.
223    o pkg/ggl90:
224      - within IDEMIX add upper limit for horizontal group velocity to
225        avoid instability problems in the explicit horizontal diffusion term for
226        long time steps or high resolution
227    o pkg/diagnostics:
228      - simplify setting of local-array size in diagstats_output.F: uses "numLevels"
229        (from DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h) to allow to write out more than Nr levels.
230    o testreport:
231      - remove "-v" (verbose option) in default mpirun command.
232    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth:
233      - catch potential division by zero in ITD code, does not change
234        verification results
235    o pkg/ecco:
236      - retire old codes to the Attic. The calls to retired functions are
237        left in a commented form in case they ever need to be re-activated.
238      - ecco_check.F: issue warning if any old CPP option is
239        defined that corresponds to retired codes -- then stop.
240    o pkg/atm_compon_interf:
241      - change seaice fraction (use for OCN dic surf.flux) stored and sent to
242        coupler: use last time-step value instead of average over cplSendFrq_iter
243        time-step, similar to what is done for seaIceMass.
244        This will affect results (pkg/dic) of coupled ATM-OCN+dic set-up.
245    o eesupp & genmake2:
246      - from Jinxuan Zhu: change etime fct call to S/R call (fix gfortran ETIME);
247        <= remove until a fix is found for some ifort version on ia32 machine.
248    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp:
249      - refine residual computation
250    
251    checkpoint65q (2015/11/18)
252    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp:
253      - fix residual computations so that they no longer affect the actual
254        simulation code
255      - fix seaice_readparams to be able to actually set new parameters
256        SEAICEaEVPcStar and SEAICEaEVPalphaMin, also fix logic a little
257    o model/src:
258      - fix wrong truncation (single prec) from "FLOAT" function in expressions
259        like: deltaT*FLOAT(myIter) when myIter is large:
260         a) replaced by DFLOAT (if not seen by TAF);
261         b) remove "FLOAT" and use implicit type conversion (if seen by TAF).
262    o pkg/aim_v23:
263      - write/read the expected CO2 pickups (from S/R AIM_DO_CO2): fix reading
264        when pickupSuff is set ; do write rolling pickups + at the end of the run.
265    o pkg/atm_ocn_coupler + ocn_compon_interf:
266      - in prep for using pkg/seaice Dyn in coupled set-up, implement sequential
267        coupling option-1: ATM -(cpl)-> OCN and then OCN -(cpl)-> ATM ;
268        add corresponding call in DO_OCEANIC_PHYS.
269    o coupler pkgs:
270      Start a new way to set-up optionally-exchanged variables (previously, only
271       there for exchange_DIC): switch on/off from 1 place, at run-time, in coupler
272       data.cpl (new) instead of at compile time in ATMIDS.h & OCNIDS.h ;
273       send switch to ATM & OCN compon before reading their own "data.cpl" (so that
274       compononent param default can be set accordingly).
275      Note: this new switch (cpl_exchange_[xxx]) is not a per variable switch
276       but rather applies to a group a fields (going both ways like for DIC)
277       and corresponds to an option of coupling config.
278      coupler (pkg/atm_ocn_coupler):
279      - change parameter file from "data" to "data.cpl" (in cpl_read_params.F),
280        and read namelist directly (without eessup S/R calls) instead of
281        in the very un-flexible old way, 1 param per line, in fixed order;
282      - add error-counter to track errors (e.g., missing "data.cpl") and to stop
283        cleanly in CPL_CHECK_CPLCONFIG
284      - add new coupling-exchange selectors (some not yet active) including
285        cpl_exchange_DIC (to set to 3 to replace atmCpl_exchange_DIC=T in ATMIDS.h
286                                             and ocnCpl_exchange_DIC=T in OCNIDS.h);
287      - add 2 new S/R (CPL_SEND_ATM/OCN_CPLPARMS) to send coupler-params to each
288        component ; called directly from coupler.F, after comp. registrations;
289      - rename few variable-ID names (in ATMIDS.h & OCNIDS.h):
290         atm/ocnSeaIceName --> atm/ocnSIceMassName ; atm/ocnFCO2Name ->
291          -> atm/ocnCO2FluxName ; atm/ocnWSpdName --> atm/ocnWindSpdName
292      components (pkg/atm_ & ocn_compon_interf):
293      - add ATM/OCN_CPL_OPTIONS.h in component pkgs and include the corresponding
294        CPP header file in all pkg source files.
295      - move checking of comp. configs out of cpl_exch_configs.F into new S/R
296        ATM/OCN_CHECK_CPLCONFIG;
297      - add error-counter to track errors (e.g., in "data.cpl") and to stop
298        cleanly in ATM/OCN_CHECK_CPLCONFIG;
299      - add new S/R CPL_IMPORT_CPLPARMS to import coupling-exchange selectors
300        from coupler ; called from initialise_fixed.F, after PACKAGES_BOOT and
301        before PACKAGES_READPARMS;
302      verification/cpl_aim+ocn/:
303      - update ATMIDS.h & OCNIDS.h (in shared_code) and use new parameter file
304        "data.cpl" for coupler (in input_cpl).
305    o eesupp/inc:
306      - change the MPI-global-sum default (in CPP_EEOPTIONS.h) to:
307        #define GLOBAL_SUM_ORDER_TILES (only affects MPI built of global_sum_tile.F)
308        to always cumulate tile local-sum in the same order (still uses
309        MPI_Allreduce like standard code).
310      - in verification experiment code, remove local CPP_EEOPTIONS.h_mpi files
311        that are now identical to standard version (in eesupp/inc).
312    o pkg/shelfice:
313      - add SHELFICETransCoeffTFile for initializing spatially varying
314        heat and salt transfer coefficients
315    o pkg/atm_compon_interf & ocn_compon_interf:
316      - combine into 1 (new) S/R CPL_EXPORT_IMPORT_DATA the two previous
317        S/R CPL_EXPORT_MY_DATA & CPL_IMPORT_EXTERNAL_DATA
318      - move bi,bj loops inside S/R OCN_STORE_MY_DATA
319    o pkg/atm_ocn_coupler:
320      - initialise to zero ATMVARS.h & OCNVARS.h arrays.
321    o pkg/rbcs:
322      - select RBCS-mask for Temp & Salt the same way as for pTracer ; this allows
323        to compile with maskLEN=1 when all tracers use the same RBCS-mask.
324      - add a short report (to STDOUT) about RBCS-mask settings.
325    
326    checkpoint65p (2015/10/23)
327    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp.F: fix store directives and key computations, since
328        there is no adjoint test for EVP, we don't know what it does to the adjoint
329        solution, but at least there are no more recomputation warnings left
330    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp.F: slight modification of averaging so that EVP stands
331        a chance of giving the same results as a fully converged VP (JFNK) solver
332    o tools/adjoint_options/adjoint_diva:
333      - fix bug (typo) in Tang-Linear FLAGS setting for MPI + DIVA
334    o pkg/streamice:
335      - spotted bug in streamice_driving_stress using dyG where should have been dxG
336    o pkg/exf:
337      - remove STOP statement that prevented to use wind or (wind-)stress
338        interpolation for constant-in-time forcing fields (wind/stress period = 0).
339    o pkg/seaice:
340      - replace SEAICE_EVP_USE_ADAPTATION by run time parameters, requires
341        5 additionals 2D fields and 6 new store directives
342      - change logic in seaice_readparms.F: EVP code can now be turned on in
343        various ways, setting SEAICE_deltaTev is no longer required,
344        alternatively set SEAICE_evpAlpha/Beta, SEAICEuseEVPstar, SEAICEuseEVPrev,
345        or SEAICEaEVPcoeff
346    o pkg/shelfice/shelfice_thermodynamics.F
347      - redefining uLoc/vLoc to u/v, instead of 2u/v
348    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp.F: introduce "adaptive EVP" by Madlen Kimmritz
349      - this is an intermediate state of a truely converging EVP that has
350        the potential of outperforming implicit VP methods, I do not recommend
351        using it yet.
352      - for now, "adaptive EVP" is turned on by setting SEAICE_EVP_USE_ADAPTATION
353        and all parameters are hardwired
354      - for convergence it still requires very smooth regularisations, that means,
355        if SEAICE_DELTA_SMOOTHREG is defined, deltaCreg=deltaC+deltaMin, which is
356        different from the VP case with deltaCreg=sqrt(deltaC**2+deltaMin**2); also
357        specific averaging appears to be required, still subject to tuning
358      - still needs cleaning and I need to turn parameter into runtime parameters
359      - add code to compute and print residuals of iteration, compile with
360        defining ALLOW_SEAICE_EVP_RESIDUAL to enable it
361    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp.F: fix a bug (factor of four in front of e12Csq)
362      that entered with r1.54 on Sep04, 2015, -> update results
363    
364    checkpoint65o (2015/09/14)
365    o pkg/mom_vecinv & mom_common:
366      - add deep-atmosphere geometry factor in mom_calc_visc.F + in routines
367        called from there.
368      - add anelastic and deep-atmosphere geometry factor in pkg/mom_vecinv ; this
369        allows to use Vector-Invariant form in deep atmos and anelastic formulation
370    o pkg/seaice: introduce fast ice parameterisation following Itkin et al. (2015)
371      and Koenig-Beatty+Holland (2012)
372      - two new parameters SEAICE_tensilFac and SEAICE_tensilDepth
373      - global 2D field tensileStrength, computed in seaice_calc_ice_strength
374      - requires an extra input argument for S/R seaice_calc_viscosities
375      - tensileStrength's depth dependence is different from Itkin et al. (2015)
376        (to be changed and played with, for now exponential)
377    o pkg/seaice: introduce new parameter SEAICEscaleSurfStress (default = .FALSE.)
378      - if TRUE scale ice-ocean and ice-atmosphere stress acting on sea ice
379        by AREA according to Connelly et al. (2004), JPO.
380      - For EVP and the LSR solver, the implicit part of the drag term is
381        the only non-zero term in the denominator when there is no ice (which
382        prevented running the model with zero ice-ocean drag). If
383        SEAICEscaleSurfStress = .TRUE., this results in a division by zero
384        (or zero main diagonals BU/BV) which need to be caught. A practical
385        consequence is that for open water, the momentum equation reduce
386        to trivially 0 = 0 + 0 (for EVP). For LSR, BU/BV are reset to 1, if
387        they happen to be zero, often leading to a non-zero solution over
388        open water.
389    o pkg/seaice: revise EVP code (seaice_evp.F) in preparation for a more
390        efficient EVP method.
391      - introduce area-weighted averages for e12 (analogously to
392        seaice_calc_viscosities.F); this totally changes lab_sea.hb87 (2 digits
393        remain, but also changing the order of terms in the previous average
394        changed the results as much) -> update experiment
395      - add SEAICE_DELTA_SMOOTHREG code
396      - disentangle computation of zetaC/deltaC and zetaZ/deltaZ, also for
397        TEM-code
398      - adjust loop bounds so that only required fields are computed
399      - add new averaging code for zetaZ/deltaZ (again similar to
400        seaice_calc_viscosities.F), inactive by default for now (will change
401        results again), but will replace old code eventually
402    o eesupp/src:
403      - add an other alternative for multi-proc GLOBAL_SUM (in global_sum_tile.F)
404        to always cumulate tile local-sum in the same order
405        (option #define GLOBAL_SUM_ORDER_TILES in CPP_EEOPTIONS.h).
406        Still uses MPI_Allreduce (like standard code) but on array of tiles
407        and should be faster than GLOBAL_SUM_SEND_RECV code.
408      - switch almost all verification experiments that use GLOBAL_SUM_SEND_RECV
409        (defined in CPP_EEOPTIONS.h_mpi) to GLOBAL_SUM_ORDER_TILES instead.
410      - add CPP_EEOPTIONS.h_mpi with GLOBAL_SUM_ORDER_TILES defined in 14 more exp.:
411         aim.5l_cs, cheapAML_box, deep_anelastic, dome, fizhi-cs-32x32x40,
412         fizhi-cs-aqualev20, fizhi-gridalt-hs, global_ocean_ebm, matrix_example,
413         natl_box, solid-body.cs-32x32x1, tutorial_advection_in_gyre,
414         tutorial_baroclinic_gyre and tutorial_held_suarez_cs.
415    
416    checkpoint65n (2015/07/29)
417    o pkg/thsice:
418      - add a warning when used with pkg/aim but without updating SST
419        (stepFwd_oceMxL=F & useCoupler=F & tauRelax_MxL<>-1 ).
420    o pkg/offline:
421      - change where Offline-Fields are loaded, from load_fields_driver.F to
422        directly within FORWARD_STEP, just after updating iter number and time;
423      - move setting of GM and KPP diffusivity out of OFFLINE_FIELDS_LOAD into new
424        S/R OFFLINE_GET_DIFFUS that is called towards the end of DO_OCEANIC_PHYS;
425       These changes allow:
426        a) to recover exactly on-line results using deltaToffline=deltaTClock,
427        tested (using offlineIter0= nIter0 -1 and offlineTimeOffset= -deltaT/2)
428        both with Lin & Non-Lin Free-Surf, both with staggerTimeStep & synchronous
429        time-step, both with GM & KPP files and with recomputing these fields;
430        b) no needs to switch on staggerTimeStep anymore;
431        c) simplify rescaling of offline horiz. velocity with Non-Lin Free-Surf.
432      - update output of experiment tutorial_dic_adjoffline (only 3 digits left).
433    o pkg/offline:
434      - change (rarely used) offset-iteration parameter to an offset time (in s):
435        can easily recover previous offset-iter effect by setting offset-time
436        (offlineTimeOffset) to offset-iter x deltaToffline;
437      - do not turn-off Temp & Salinity surface relaxation when using KPP (used
438        in KPP as part of surface buoyancy forcing) in offline run.
439      - fix ptracers KPP non-local term in the case where KPP is re-computed.
440    o OpenAD
441      - Adding preliminary ggl90 test to OpenAD verification.
442        Config. with ggl90 currently diverges after 64 time steps
443        so will need more work to become more stable
444      - Adding preliminary kpp test to OpenAD verification.
445        required small tweakes in kpp_routines.F
446      - Merge and update from Krishna Narayanan's contrib area:
447        * Add one variable for preliminary OpenAD DIVA
448        * Add replacement time-stepping for OpenAD DIVA
449        * genmake2 flag -diva (but only for OpenAD; preliminary)
450        * required modifs for OAD_support
451        successful preliminary test for tutorial_global_oce_biogeo/
452    o pkg/seaice:
453      - initialise deltaC in seaice_lsr, cosmetic changes in seaice_lsr
454      - add cpp-flag SEAICE_DELTA_SMOOTHREG for option of regularising
455        delta with a smooth function in s/r seaice_calc_viscosity
456        (no effect on EVP)
457      - rename local suffix "sqr" into "sq" for more consistent variable names
458    o pkg/seaice:
459        add new parameter SEAICE_deltaMin that is used ***only***
460        for regularizing Delta (and nothing else, like the parameter
461        which is also used for all sorts of things SEAICE_EPS).
462        Defaults to SEAICE_EPS for backward compatibility only.
463    o pkg/seaice: replace erroneously storing e12Csqr on the wrong tape with
464        the wrong key by inialising it before use -> fixes a recomputation
465        problem but does not fix the gradient
466    o pkg/layers:
467      - move resetting of flux arrays to outside the iLa loop
468        (this caused layers_diapycnal to not work with more than one layer coord.)
469      - fix bug in calculation of layers_recip_delta in layers_init_fixed.F
470    o pkg/layers:
471      - remove from common block 3D layers fields (used to diagnose transport
472        in tracer coords) and declare them as local arrays in layers_calc.F
473    o pkg/seaice:
474      - Rename SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA to SEAICE_LSR_ZEBRA and define it
475        in lab_sea forward experiment (changes results -> updated)
476      - update adjoint experiment lab_sea after cleaning up seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
477    o pkg/seaice: modify seaice_lsr.F in order to improve the gradient
478       computations; for SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR
479      - move the loops over which the tridiagonal solvers (seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v)
480        sweep to the outside,
481      - remove store directives and add "CADJ loop sequential" directives
482        in analogy to model/src/solve_tridiagonal.F
483      - replace many "#ifdef SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA" by variable loop
484        boundaries to yield more readable code. This has also the charming side
485        effect that your can use SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA without
486        SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR (i.e. adjoint without recomputations in
487        seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v now requires either of these flags, vectorization
488        still requires SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR with SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA as
489        an additional option)
490       The tridiagonal solvers are now completely analoguous to solve_tridiagonal.F
491       but the adjoint gradients (which are affected by this change) still explode.
492    o coupler (atm & ocn _compon_interf):
493      - avoid using Exch2 IO mapping if not suitable.
494    
495    checkpoint65m (2015/06/15)
496    o pkg/layers:
497      - clean-up old parameters setting (from Sep 2012):
498        + remove old parameters setting from common block (declared locally);
499        + stop if any old parameter is mixed with new parameters;
500        + check for valid or consistent parameter setting (e.g., layers_name)
501      - check that layers_bounds for Pot.Density are in the right range;
502        this is supposed to catch un-updated setting after recently shifting
503        potential density field "prho" by -1000 (now in "sigma" scale).
504    o pkg/layers:
505      - Added missing call to layers_fill for keeping track of tottend in
506        pkg/diagnostics/diagnostics_fill_state.F
507    o pkg/layers:
508      - added CPP flux LAYERS_FINEGRID_DIAPYCNAL to disable fine-grid binning
509        of diapycnal fluxes
510    o pkg/layers:
511      - reverted changes to interpolation to previous treatment; there
512        was never actually a problem
513    o pkg/layers:
514      - fix interpolation of layers tracers in the presence of partial cells
515      - add lots of new functionality to compute water mass transformation
516        (enabled by CPP flag LAYERS_THERMODYNAMICS)
517      - add new calls from main code (diags_oceanic_surf_flux.F,
518        thermodynamics.F, impldiff.F) and gad to save the necessary fields
519        for layers_thermodynamics calculations
520    o pkg/ptracers:
521      - add capability of stepping a passive tracer forward without advection
522        by setting PTRACERS_advScheme to 0.
523    o pkg/diagnostics:
524      - add few (threads) _BARRIER around any update of "diag_pkgStatus".
525    o pkg/layers:
526      - shift potential density field "prho" by -1000 for density layer averaging so
527        that it corresponds to usual "sigma" definition (i.e., rho(p=const)-1000);
528        Note that density bin boundaries (layers_bounds in data.layers) have
529        to be set accordingly (i.e., shifted, in sigma scale).
530    o pkg/layers:
531      - fix snap-shot output of layer thickness @ V.pt and output of pot.density
532      - fix calculation of layer non-weighted velocity and layer probability
533      - add diagnostics for pot.density used for layer averaging
534    o pkg/seaice:
535      - seaice_calc_viscosity.F: change computation of deltaC**2 to ensure
536        positiveness, modify a few comments and improve variable names,
537      - the changed computation of deltaC affects most seaice-related
538        experiments at the truncation level.
539        seaice_itd.thermo is affected by far the most, with
540        only 7 digits of agreement remaining; update experiments.
541    
542    checkpoint65l (2015/05/04)
543    o pkg/shelfice:
544      - in shelfice_thermodynamics.F, if SHELFICEBoundaryLayer=.true., then set
545        factor drKp1 to zero where it is negative (ie. do not use
546        SHELFICEBoundaryLayer if hFacC>1)
547      - the same for factor drLoc in shelfice_forcing.F
548    o tools/genmake2: move FEXTRAFLAGS from FFLAGS to FOPTIM to avoid a problem
549        with modules in ptracers, when using testreport option "-small_f"
550    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F (in case of SEAICE_ITD)
551      - replace tmpscal1**1.36 by faster exp(1.36*log(tmpscal1))
552    o verification/testreport
553      - add new option -small_f
554        with this option testreport first makes the target small_f (*.f files)
555        before running make (all). This is useful for explicit inlining when
556        all sources need to be full available.
557    o pkg/exf/exf_interp.F:
558        remove previous changes related to reverse (decreasing) input grids latitude
559    
560    checkpoint65k (2015/04/01)
561    o pkg/ecco:
562        fix missing cosphi initialization; use eccoiter in place of optimcycle;
563        if autodiff is not compiled then use READ_REC_XY_RL/READ_REC_XYZ_RL
564        instead of active read/write
565    o pkg/ctrl:
566        if autodiff is not compiled then use READ_REC_XY_RL/READ_REC_XYZ_RL
567        instead of active read/write.
568    o pkg/autodiff: make autodiff_readparms.F and autodiff_whtapeio_sync.F
569        return if .NOT.useAUTODIFF
570    o pkg/seaice: add CPP brackets (cost function related).
571    o model/src:
572        add useAUTODIFF run time switch.
573    o pkg/exf/exf_interp.F:
574        add code to allow input grids with latitude starting in the north (i.e. when
575        j=1 corresponds to northern edge of field); modify global_with_exf to test
576        this feature.
577    o verification/testreport:
578      - replace "grep -A3" with POSIX conformal sed command, because there are
579        implementations of grep that cannot do contextual searches
580      - replace "cat -n" by "nl" (two occurrences), because not all implementations
581        of "cat" have the option "-n"
582    o model/src:
583        add new file gsw_teos10.F that contains 3 functions, more or less a copy
584        of the gsw_toolbox.f90 of the TEOS-10 fortran interface, that are used to
585        convert from conservative to potential temperature. For now they are not
586        called anywhere.
587    o pkg/ggl90: make "useIDEMIX" useful
588      - re-organize code in s/r ggl90_calc a little to move computations that
589        are different for idemix into separate loops (changes verification
590        experiment idemix at truncation level, 12 digits remain -> updated)
591      - requires 2 new 2D fields KappaM, verticalShear
592      - make hFacI and recip_hFacI local 3D variables that are passed to
593        s/r ggl90_idemix
594      - fix and improve some comments
595    
596    checkpoint65j (2015/02/25)
597    o pkg/openad
598      - synchronize seawater.F with version in model/src: replace routine
599        body of sw_temp by calling sw_ptmp and fix/add a few comments.
600    o pkg/mnc:
601      - change default value of pickup_read/write_mnc params to FALSE
602        (since few features are missing in reading MNC pickup files).
603    o model/src:
604      - change default (background) vertical diffusivity for salt to be the
605        temperature (background) vertical diffusivity.
606      - change background vertical diffusivity in vertical mixing pkgs ggl90,
607        kl10, my82 and pp81 from temperature diffusivity to salinity diffusivity.
608        This makes ptracers default diffusivity (that uses salt diffKr) more
609        consistent with vertical mixing schemes.
610    o verification/testreport:
611      - fix typo in "-pcls" option ;
612      - put temp files in /tmp (instead of in local dir)
613      - add option "-ncad" to use genmake2 new option "-nocat4ad"
614      - allow to use "-j" option (for multi-procs make) for AD, OAD and TLM.
615    o pkg/ggl90 (idemix code):
616      - apply few fixes ; add some missing "_d 0" ; update output of exp.
617        global_ocean.90x40x15.idemix
618    o OpenAD
619      - enable active file I/O and begin removal of work-around code
620        for OpenAD for handling control variables (memory vs. active files)
621      - new CPP options file OPENAD_OPTIONS.h
622      - revert to genarr2d gradient check for hs94.1x64x5
623      - (genarr3d tested by tutorial_global_oce_biogeo, tutorial_tracer_adjsens)
624      - gentim2d works for halfpipe_streamice but not yet hs94.1x64x5
625    o tools/genmake2:
626      - add option for an alternative Makefile (from Martin) where multiple
627        source files are sent to TAF (instead of all in one file).
628    o pkg/ggl90: add IDEMIX (Olbers and Eden, 2013)
629      - code provided by Carsten Eden as an extension of ggl90
630      - so far the code is turned on within ggl90 by setting a CPP-flag at
631        compile time; a runtime flag implementation is not yet complete
632      - tested in new verification experiment global_ocean.90x40x15.idemix
633    o verification:
634      - reduce length of the AD test run by half for experiments
635        global_ocean.cs32x15 (std + thsice) and isomip
636      - enable active file I/O for OpenAD, adjust verifications accordingly
637      - halfpipe_streamice: change gradient check from genarr2d to gentim2d
638    o verification/testreport:
639      - fix two non-POSIX sed statements so that there are no error messages
640        on Mac OS X
641      - replace hostname -s with hostname | sed 's/\..*$//'
642    o model/src/seawater.F:
643      - simplify SW_TEMP to just calling SW_PTMP with P and PR exchanged
644        (following the matlab code), which would have avoided the bug caught
645        by Matt (see below) in the first place
646    o pkg/shelfice:
647      - implement alternative discretisation of quadratic drag (selectBotDragQuadr)
648        and true distance in no-slip BC (bottomVisc_pCell) similar to bottom-drag.
649      - fix sign of friction tendency (no-slip BC) and fix u,v drag for thin
650        ice-shelf case (i.e., within surface level).
651      - add config summary in shelfice_check.F
652      - remove global variable recip_SHELFICElatentHeat and replace by a local
653        variable recip_latentHeat
654      - introduce diagnostics for friction velocity uStar (in case of
655        SHELFICEuseGammaFrict)
656      - change verification experiment isomip.htd:
657        + start from pickup (as input_ad at nIter0=8640)
658        + start from SHELFICEmassFile instead of SHELFICEloadAnomaly file
659        + test SHELFICEuseGammaFrict = .TRUE.
660        + test SHELFICEadvDiffHeatFlux = .TRUE.
661    o model/src:
662      - fix bug (Thanks to Matt) in function SW_TEMP (to convert Pot.Temp to
663        in-situ Temp) and in routine SW_TEMP (in pkg/openad);
664        update output of experiments global_with_exf.yearly and isomip (all 6).
665    o pkg/shelfice:
666      - change setting of kTopC to also be zero where there is no ice-shelf.
667      - zero out surface forcing arrays (for now, for T & S + EmPmR) where
668        ice-shelf is.
669      - first attempt to get RealFreshWaterFlux effects: for now, only without
670        SHELFICEboundaryLayer ; not consistent if using synchronous time-stepping.
671    o pkg/seaice: add the option to prescribe a fixed thickness PDF
672      for thermodynamic calculations
673      - because of divisions of the type 7/7 not exactly equal to 1, this change
674        affects results of some verification experiments by up to 4 digits:
675        global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice, lab_sea, lab_sea.fd, lab_sea.salt_plume,
676        seaice_obcs, seaice_obcs.seaiceSponge, seaice_obcs.tides
677        adjoint: lab_sea, lab_sea.noseaicedyn
678        -> updated
679    
680    checkpoint65i (2015/01/23)
681    o model/src:
682      - change units of frictionHeating field from W to W/m^2
683      - fix bug in frictional heating from stratospheric drag in
684        S/R ATM_PHYS_TENDENCY_APPLY_V
685      - with synchronous time-stepping: move resetting to zero of frictionHeating
686        field from load_fields_driver.F to thermodynamics.F ;
687      - add diagnostics for frictional heating.
688    o model/src & gmredi K3D:
689      - add frictionHeating field to pickup-files (for synchronous time-stepping)
690      - move ALLOW_EDDYPSI block out of DYNVARS.h and merge it into FFIELDS.h
691      - rename uMean,vMean --> uEulerMean,vEulerMean (+ change diagnostics name
692        and name in pickup file).
693      - fix arguments of few DIAGNOSTICS_FILL calls in gmredi_k3d.F
694    o model/src:
695      - move (from ini_forcing.F) initialisation of all arrays in header file
696        FFIELDS.h into new S/R ini_ffields.F ; this fix broken restart
697        (since Nov 2012) with option selectAddFluid=1.
698    o pkg/shelfice:
699      - change units (+ document) of newly added field "shelfIceMassDynTendency"
700      - upgrade from _RS to _RL shelficeMass & shelficeLoadAnomaly arrays.
701    o pkg/obcs: re-organize obcs_calc_stevens.F to prepare for passive tracers
702    o pkg/seaice: two new runtime parameters:
703      - SEAICE_cStar replaces the hard wired "20" in the strength formulation,
704        long overdue
705      - SEAICE_tensilFac: preparation for Koenig-Beatty+Holland (2012)
706        parameterization of tensil stress for fast ice (does not do anything yet)
707    o pkg/seaice/seaice_check.F: left over from restricted addtive Schwarz method
708        for LSR: move checking overlaps out of JFNK-if-block
709    o pkg/atm_phys:
710      - move copy of grid and dynamical fields out of atm_phys_driver.F into
711        new S/R ATM_PHYS_DYN2PHYS.
712      - fix level height for Linear Free-Surf case (to be consistent with
713        fixed-in-time pressure levels).
714    o pkg/mom_common (bottomdrag):
715      - average bottomDragFld (ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG_CONTROL) from grid-cell center
716        to correct location (U & V point) in S/R MOM_U/V_BOTTOMDRAG;
717        update output (adm & tlm) of experiment global_ocean.90x40x15.bottomdrag.
718    o pkg/shelfice (u/v_drag):
719      - add one argument (the other velocity component) to S/R SHELFICE_U/V_DRAG;
720      - use SHELFICEDragLinear & SHELFICEDragQuadratic in shelfice_v_drag.F
721        (now similar to shelfice_u_drag.F)
722      - remove condition on bottomDragTerms when calling SHELFICE_U/V_DRAG
723        from mom_vecinv.F (similar to mom_fluxform calls).
724    o pkg/mom_common (bottomdrag):
725      - add one argument (the other velocity component) to S/R MOM_U/V_BOTTOMDRAG;
726      - add options for alternative discretisation of velocity norm in quadratic
727        bottom drag: averaging of grid-cell-center KE to U.point and V.point
728        (selectBotDragQuadr=0, original code) can produce noisy patterns; this
729        improves when averaging only the other component (e.g. vVel for U bottom
730        drag) using wet-point method (selectBotDragQuadr=2) or not (=1).
731      - add options (bottomVisc_pCell) to account for partial-cell in bottom
732        friction (no-slip BC) thus getting the true distance from the bottom;
733        off by default since this also reduces model stability (explicit bottom
734        friction). Changes produce different machine truncation with linear-drag
735        + no-slip BC: update output of experiments exp4.stevens (10 digits) and
736        front_relax (bvp & mxl, 10 & 11 digits).
737    o model/src & mom pkgs:
738      - add one more level to vertical viscosity local arrays (Nr+1, previously Nr)
739        since no-slip bottom BC uses viscosity @ k+1 to update velocity @ level k
740      - for now and until vertical mixing scheme are updated to fill up level Nr+1,
741        just copy level Nr value to level Nr+1.
742    o doc:
743      - add notes form Abhisek Chakraborty on how to close Heat & Salt budgets.
744    o pkg/streamice:
745      - shelfice_init_varia.F, shelfice_init_fixed.F, shelfice_readparms.F,
746        SHELFICE.h: move array shelficemass to init_varia, initialise
747        from array shelficemassinit, which is set in init_fixed and
748        has option to be set from file; introduce array
749        shelficeMassDynTend array, set thru file in init_fixed
750      - NEW FILE: shelfice_step_icemass.F: update shelficemass from either
751        shelfIceFreshWaterFlux and shelficeMassDynTend or H_streamice in
752        pkg/streamice
753      - shelfice_thermodynamics.F: call shelfice_step_icemass if
754        SHELFICEMassStepping = .true.
755      - shelfice_ad_diff.list: add new subroutine shelfice_step_icemass.f
756    
757    checkpoint65h (2014/12/17)
758    o verification/global_ocean.90x40x15, global_ocean_ebm:
759      - update to generic controls.
760    o pkg/ctrl:
761      - ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F: test for igen>0
762      - ctrl_init_variables.F: add call to CTRL_MAP_INI_GENTIM2D.
763      - move gentim2d part of ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F to
764        new separate routine : ctrl_map_ini_gentim2d.F
765      - ctrl_cost_driver.F,ctrl_init.F ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F:
766        add time variable weights and cyclic controls (time mean,
767        seasonal cycle, etc) capabilities to gentim2d
768    o pkg/ecco:
769      - move reading of error, conversion to weights from
770        ecco_cost_init_fixed.F to ecco_toolbox.F (ecco_readwei)
771    o global_oce_llc90, cs32:
772      - activte sbo.
773      - CTRL_SIZE.h : add maxCtrlProc.
774      - activate the new genctrl capabilities.
775      - update following reorganization of global_oce_input_fields.tar.gz  
776    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_ad_diff.list:
777      - add missing ctrl_init_rec.f
778    o tools/OAD_support/keepOriginal:
779      - add ctrl_init_rec.F
780    o model/src/the_main_loop.F, pkg/ctrl/ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F:
781      - avoid recomputations of xx_gentim2d_dummy.
782    o momentum diagnostics:
783      - move filling of diagnostics Um_Diss & Vm_Diss from mom_fluxform.F and
784        mom_vecinv.F to timestep.F (to include Smag-3D contribution).
785    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F:
786      - fix computation of BU/BV, make sure they are non-zero, only necessary
787        for cubed sphere exchanges and SEAICE_OLx/y>0.
788        This makes calling s/r fill_cs_corner_rl obsolete (removed).
789    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.seaice
790      - add test for strong implicit coupling and restricted addtive Schwarz
791        methods for LSR
792      - update results/output.seaice.txt
793    o verification/tutorial_global_oce_biogeo:
794      - AD & OAD set-up: switch off ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX (like in fwd set-up)
795        and set PTRACERS_EvPrRn(1,2) to zero (for DIC & ALK);
796        update output_adm,_oadm,_tlm.txt
797    o pkg/dic:
798      - change default to "#undef ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX" in DIC_OPTIONS.h
799      - add a stop when ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX is defined and PTRACERS_EvPrRn
800        for tracer 1 & 2 is set (to avoid double counting of dilution effect).
801    o verification/tutorial_global_oce_biogeo:
802      - AD & OAD set-up: do not set PTRACERS_EvPrRn for tracer 1 & 2 since
803        dilution is already added by pkg/dic ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX ;
804        update output_adm,_oadm,_tlm.txt
805    o eesupp/src:
806      - add fill_cs_corner_rl.F (_RL-copy of fill_cs_corner_rs.F)
807        and call it in seaice_lsr when using nonzero SEAICE_OLx/y
808    o pkg/seaice: introduce strongly implicit coupling, intended for stabilizing
809      LSR (following Hutchings et al. 2004)
810      - introduce zetaZ as a global variable (requires adjustments in
811        seaice_evp.F and seaice_jfnk.F) and compute analoguously to etaZ
812        in seaice_calc_viscosities.F
813      - new flag SEAICEuseStrImpCpl (default off)
814      - add new terms zetaZ*du/dy and zetaZ*dv/dx on both sides of the
815        momentum equations
816      - JFNK-solver (preconditioner) adjusted to allow using this method
817        (where it does not have any positive effect)
818    o pkg/seaice
819      - add overlap for restrictive additive Schwartz method also to LSR, but
820        turn it off by default (because it only seems to work for non-cubed
821        sphere/llc topologies)
822    o pkg/autodiff
823      - add extra exchanges in addummy_in_steppging also for mnc output
824    o pkg/seaice:
825      - add extra exchanges before dumping adjoint fields in seaice_ad_dump.F
826        to avoid stripes in the adjoint output (similar to addummy_in_stepping.F)
827    o pkg/obcs:
828      - add option to specify domain-connected piece Id along OB though files
829        (for now, only used to diagnose PhiVel; default =1 -> global correction)
830      - modify obcs_diag_balance.F to process each connected-part separately;
831        exclude OB where Id = 0 but keep the full divergence there (-> constant
832        Psi along this portion of OB and all inflow derived from grad(Phi))
833      - add example of OB-conect files in verification/so_box_biogeo/input.
834    o pkg/diagnostics:
835      - improve treatment of Open-Boundaries in Velocity-Potential calculation:
836      a) use non zero matrix element across OB and solve for Phi 1 grid point
837         outside OB (i.e, where tracer OBCS are applied).
838      b) global imbalance of inFlow/outFlow across OB: instead of modifying
839         velocity across OB, spread it uniformly along the OB in the RHS.
840    
841    checkpoint65g (2014/11/19)
842    o pkg/diagnostcis:
843      - add preconditioner off-diagonal factor (diagCG_pcOffDFac) as run-time param
844    o pkg/my82,pp81,kl10:
845      - fix ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR implementation (previously had no effect): use 3-D
846        field diffKr as background diffusivity to set minimum diffusivity value.
847    o pkg/seaice:
848      - add new parameter SEAICEuseEVPrev (for revisited EVP by
849        Bouillon et al 2013)
850      - add SEAICE_evpAlpha/Beta to namelist
851      - modify seaice_evp code to able to use SEAICEuseEVPrev. These changes
852        involve trivial re-ordering of divisions/multiplications that should not
853        have any effects, but ... they do change the results of lab_sea.hb87 so
854        that only 2 digits of agreement remain, in line with the general
855        instability/fragility of the evp-code. For now, I do not care and just
856        update the verification experiment
857    o pkg/ctrl : add generic pre-processing (xx_genarr2d_preproc etc)
858      - remove xx_genarr2d_numsmooth etc
859      - use xx_genarr2d_preproc etc instead
860      - carry out smooth_correl2D at initialization stage rather than during
861        time stepping.
862      - get smoothOpNb from xx_gentim2d_preproc
863    o global_oce_cs32 :
864      - add test of generic ecco capabilities.
865    o pkg/exf/exf_getsurfacefluxes.F :
866      - add to tmpUE/tmpVN rather than re-initializing them (conventional behavior).
867    o pkg/ctrl,ecco :
868      - omit un-necessary arguments to ctrl_cost_gen.F unless ECCO_CTRL_DEPRECATED
869        is defined.
870    o pkg/seaice: add diagnostics for Delta (deformation parameter)
871    o model/src:
872      - when ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR is defined, add a Warning if any of the vertical
873        diffusivity (background) is specified but ignored.
874    o verification:
875      - in testreport, convert hostname to lower case for default output dir name
876    o model, pkg : add useCTRL, useECCO parameters (on/off run time switch).
877    o pkg/dic: add modifications from Hajoon:
878      - add iron sedimentation flux function of the flux of PO4 out of bottom layer
879      - light attenuation: add self-shading effect by climatological Chlorophyll
880        (read from file).
881    o pkg/seaice/seaice_preconditioner.F : fix cpp flags, so that code also
882        compiles when SEAICE_ALLOW_DYNAMICS is undefined
883    o global_oce_llc90,cs32 : ecco_v4 verification exps now use separate
884        AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, CTRL_OPTIONS.h, ECCO_OPTIONS.h rather than
885        ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h (i.e. replacing the deprecated, circumvoluted,
886        approach where CPP_OPTIONS.h includes an omnipotent
887        ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h that superseeds pkgs '_OPTIONS.h').
888    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F : include GMREDI_OPTIONS.h where
889        ALLOW_3D_KAPGM, ALLOW_3D_KAPREDI (to be added later) belong.
890    o pkg/seaice/SEAICE_SIZE.h : replace ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC with ALLOW_AUTODIFF
891        to avoid needing AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h anytime SEAICE_SIZE.h is included
892        (it seems that THSICE_SIZE.h, PTRACERS_SIZE.h have the same issue...)
893    o model/src, pkg/smooth, profiles, salt_plume, seaice, exf, ecco, ctrl :
894      add ECCO_OPTIONS.h, AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, CTRL_OPTIONS.h when needed
895      - ECCO_OPTIONS.h is needed when including ecco_cost.h, ecco.h
896      - AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h is needed when including tamc.h, tamc_keys.h
897      - CTRL_OPTIONS.h is needed when including ctrl.h, optim.h, etc
898    o pkg/ctrl,ecco,exf :
899      - remove variables associated with NON-generic costs,
900        unless ECCO_CTRL_DEPRECATED is defined.
901      - remove NON-generic NON-obcs controls,
902        unless ECCO_CTRL_DEPRECATED is defined.
903    o pkg/ctrl : added ctrl_local_params.h
904    o pkg/ecco : added ecco_local_params.h
905    o verification : added ECCO_CTRL_DEPRECATED to most as and oad
906        experiments, which will progressively be removed once the
907        experiments are revised to use only generic controls/costs.
908    
909    checkpoint65f (2014/10/13)
910    o pkg/ctrl, ecco, seaice : minor changes in headers
911    o global_oce_llc90,cs32 : ecco_v4 verification exps now test generic
912        cost function and control capabilities added since checkpoint65c.
913    o pkg/ctrl: regroup all obcs ctrl variables in CTRL_OBCS.h.
914    o pkg/ecco: increase modularity and improve logic
915      - ecco_toolbox.F (new) : basic operations that are often used,
916        including ecco_zero, ecco_cp, ecco_cprsrl, ecco_diffmsk,
917        ecco_addcost, ecco_add, ecco_div, ecco_readbar.
918      - cost_gencal.F (new) : determine filnames and records.
919      - cost_genread.F, cost_generic.F : condense code using ecco_toolbox.
920      - cost_generic.F : use spzeroloc rather than hard-coded -9999,
921        and exploit the above functions leading to more compact code.
922      - cost_genread.F : rm un-necessary arguments, re-arrange args order.
923      - ecco_check.F, ecco_readparms.F : bring logic up to date (using_tpj,
924        using_ers, using_gfo, using_mdt is now only defined within gencost)
925    o pkg/ecco: extend generic cost capabilities
926      - pkg/ecco : added 3D gencost (ALLOW_GENCOST3D), added gencost
927        capabilities via gencost_preproc (+ _c,_i,_r related params),
928        gencost_posproc (+ _c,_i,_r related params), gencost_nrecperiod,
929        gencost_outputlevel arguments to cost_generic
930      - pkg/ecco/cost_genread.F (new) : interface between cost_generic
931        and active_read, making room for gencost_preproc to take effect.
932        Added preproc code ('climmon') to replace GENERIC_BAR_MONTH.
933      - pkg/ecco/cost_generic.F :
934        compute and store misfit maks*(model-data) in localdif that is
935        then used in cost and for output, output misfit if outlev.GT.0
936      - pkg/ecco/cost_averagesfields.F : depend on gencost_barskip
937        rather gencost_barfile for deciding whether to write barfile
938      - pkg/ecco/ecco_cost_driver.F : extract call to cost_profiles from cost_hyd
939      - pkg/ecco/ecco_cost_init_fixed.F : extract gencost weights from
940        ecco_cost_weights, re-activate ecco_summary, determine gencost_barskip
941      - pkg/ecco/ecco_summary.F : report gencost variables
942      - pkg/ecco/cost_gencost_customize.F : treat case of scatterometer costs
943    o pkg/sea/SEAICE_OPTIONS.h : add ALLOW_COST_ICE, ALLOW_SEAICE_COST_SMR_AREA
944    o pkg/ecco: internal re-organization
945      - resolve un-necessary dependancies within pkg/ecco and to pkg/ctrl
946        (rm includes of optim.h and ctrl.h, replace optimcycle with eccoiter,
947        mv relevant variables definition from ecco_cost.h to ecco.h,
948        make sure gencost routines only include ecco.h)
949      - throughout : add missing CCP switches, rm unused variables,
950        and rm un-necessary CPP switches
951      - throughout gencost routines : replace modelstartdate with
952        gencost_startdate when needed
953      - cost_bp_read.F : use arguments, instead of common blocs
954        so that it can be used also by (new) cost_gencost_bpv4.F
955      - ecco_init_varia.F : initialize RHOsumGlob_0, VOLsumGlob_0
956      - ecco_phys.F : compute etanFull
957      - ecco_readparms.F : rename using_topex as using_tpj, add
958        bpv4-grace to gencost list, initialize added parameters
959      - ecco_summary.F : include SIZE.h needed for augmented ecco.h
960    
961    checkpoint65e (2014/09/28)
962    o pkg/obcs:
963      - replaced the just-added CPP options with run-time variables
964        (see pkg/obcs/OBCS_PARAMS.h for details)
965    o pkg/obcs:
966      - add additional CPP options for sponge boundary layers
967        (see pkg/obcs/OBCS_OPTIONS.h for details)
968    o pkg/atm_phys:
969      - implement simple (obliquity only, assuming circular planet orbit)
970        seasonal cycle for incoming insolation ; used when run-time parameter
971        "select_incSW" is set to 1 ; by default (=0), uses old unchanged formula.
972    o pkg/exf, pkg/ecco, pkg/ctrl:
973      - add ctrlUseGen and .NOT.ctrlUseGen exclusive brackets
974      - activate gentim2d for xx_atemp,xx_aqh,xx_swdown,xx_lwdown,xx_precip

982      - add weight in CTRL_GET_GEN calls
983    o pkg/ctrl :
984      - ctrl_get_gen.F : add weight as input parameter, and apply
985        it directly rather than using smooth_correl2Dw (to be retired).
986      - ctrl_map_gentim2d.F : add wgentim2d in CTRL_GET_GEN call
987    o pkg/ctrl :
988      - introduce run time switch ctrlUseGen (in ctrl.h, ctrl_check.F,
989        ctrl_init_variables.F, ctrl_readparms.F, ctrl_summary.F)
990      - re-activate ctrl_summary (call in ctrl_init.F)

998    
999    checkpoint65d (2014/09/15)
1000    o pkg/ctrl/CTRL_GENARR.h, ctrl_readparms.F :
1001      - add xx_genarr2d_bounds,xx_genarr3d_bounds,
1002        xx_genarr2d_numsmooth, xx_genarr3d_numsmooth
1003    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F :
1004      - remove compilation failure
1005      - replace hard coded example
1006      - use ctrl_map_ini_gen2D, 3D
1007    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_pack.F, ctrl_unpack.F :
1008      - on/off switch based upon xx_genarr2d_weight,3d

1024      - remove seaice_ctrl_map_ini (mv to ctrl_init_variables)
1025    o ecco/ecco_ad_diff.list :
1026      - add ecco_init_varia.f
1027    o ecco/ecco_init_varia.F
1028      - new routine
1029    o pkg/streamice:
1030      - move call to STREAMICE_INITIALIZE_PETSC from the_model_main.F
1031        to streamice_init_fixed.F ; fix setting of STREAMICEisOn.
1032      - from model/src, only call pkg/streamice routines if useStreamIce is TRUE.
1033    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
1034      - fix bug causing negatives in GAD_SMOLARKIEWICZ_HACK, introduced 8/8/2014.
1035    o pkg/exf:
1036      - exf_getffields.F : add xxg_atemp, xxg_aqh, xxg_swdown, xxg_lwdown,
1037         xxg_precip capability
1038      - exf_wind.F : no need for ALLOW_WSPEED_CONTROL cpp switch
1039    o pkg/ctrl:
1040      - ctrl_pack.F, ctrl_unpack.F : omit (un)packing of undefined xx_gentim2d
1041    o model/src/load_fields_driver.F :
1042      - move call to CTRL_MAP_GENTIM2D ahead of BULKF_FIELDS_LOAD, EXF_GETFORCING
1043        so xx_gentim2d can be applied to e.g. exf fields in a timely manner.
1044    o OpenAD verification experiments:
1045      - Include explicitly AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, COST_OPTIONS.h, and CTRL_OPTIONS.h
1046        in src files (to enable to skip the ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h);
1047        for now, only in pkgs used in OpenAD verification experiments.
1048      - Change all except one (halfpipe_streamice) OpenAD experiments to use pkg
1049        specific option file (AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, COST_OPTIONS.h & CTRL_OPTIONS.h)
1050        instead of using ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h (with all relevant options in it).
1051        This applies to both TAF (*/code_ad/) and OpenAD (*/code_oad/) tests.
1052    o OpenAD verification tests:
1053      - finish removing ALLOW_AUTODIFF_OPENAD (replaced by ALLOW_OPENAD);
1054      - finish replacing ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC by ALLOW_AUTODIFF (except for
1055        tape/storage which are specific to TAF/TAMC) in pkgs used in OpenAD exp.
1056      - leave ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC undef in OpenAD verification tests (*/code_oad/)
1057        and remove local copy of "tamc.h" (needed only if ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC).
1058    o model/src & generic_advdiff:
1059      - change hard-coded loop-range in S/R APPLY_FORCING_T/S to set T & S
1060        forcing over 0:sNx+1, 0:sNy=1 (instead of just 1:sNx,1:sNy): Model
1061        dynamics requires valid tracer forcing only over tile interior but, for
1062        some diagnostics, may need to extend it over 1 point in tile halo region.
1063      - in gad_calc_rhs.F, update calls to gmredi_x/ytransport to get valid
1064        tendency over i,j_Min,Max range. This allows to simplfy i,j_Min,Max
1065        setting in temp/salt/ptracer_integrate.F
1066    o pkg/dic:
1067      - multiply tracer tendencies by maskInC (if ussing OBCS) before updating
1068        gchem tracers: this allows to skip the 2nd call to OBCS_APPLY_PTRACER
1069        in gchem_forcing_sep.F
1070    o pkg/autodiff & obcs:
1071      - add storage of current OB values for U & V (was already done for T & S).
1072    
1073    checkpoint65c (2014/08/30)
1074    o pkg/dic:
1075      - take out of dic_atmos.F the initialisation part (corresponding to istate=0)
1076        and move it to new S/R DIC_INI_ATMOS ; also simplify the dependencies for
1077        AD compilers (but still a Pb with multi-threading and Ajoint dependencies).
1078    o verification:
1079      - new experiment testing OBCS and DIC pkgs, using params & output from
1080        tutorial_global_oce_biogeo but limited to a sub-domain around Drake
1081        passage: take OBCS from the last year of a 2 yrs simulation and initial
1082        conditions from t=1.yr while keeping the same forcing.
1083    o model/src:
1084      - when allowFreezing=T, only reset below freezing initial Temp to Tfreezing
1085        (at any k) if checkIniTemp is not set to FALSE (default checkIniTemp=T).
1086    o pkg/diagnostics (Stats-Diags):
1087      - re-write S/R DIAGSTATS_CALC (more similar to TARGET_NEC_SX part) to:
1088        a) refine region where stats are computed, excluding where arrhFac=0 ;
1089        b) fix missing interior mask (use with OBCS) in 3-D fields statistics;
1090        c) extend regional stats over the region edges (for U or V pt location).
1091    o pkg/gchem:
1092      - add a (2nd) call to OBCS_APPLY_PTRACER in gchem_forcing_sep.F (needed since
1093        pkg/dic is currently changing/updating ptracers values beyond the OB).
1094    o verification (hs94):
1095      - convert Held & Suarez external_forcing.F (from hs94.cs, with Sigma-coords
1096        bits) to apply_forcing.F and undef USE_OLD_EXTERNAL_FORCING in experiments
1097        hs94.cs-32x32x5 and tutorial_held_suarez_cs ; also use the same version of
1098        apply_forcing.F in 2D hs94 (fwd, ad & oad) but keep LatLon hs94 unchanged.
1099    o pkg/ptracers:
1100      - implement Adams-Bashforth on pTracers (instead of on tracer tendency),
1101        switched on by setting PTRACERS_doAB_onGpTr=F (default set to doAB_onGtGs)
1102      - change exp4 secondary test (input.nlfs) to test AB on T & S & pTracer
1103        with AB-2 code (so that it get tested).
1104    o model/src:
1105      - allow to apply Adams-Bashforth on Temp & Salt (instead of on gT,gS)
1106        with AB-2 code (previously only available with AB-3 code).
1107        Also move the code (call to ADAMS_BASHFORTH S/R) form thermodynamics.F
1108        to temp/salt_integrate.F (since the 2nd part of gt/sNm1 update is done
1109        there, by calling CYCLE_AB_TRACER).
1110    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
1111      - change Tracer argument (drop bi,bj indices) in S/R GAD_CALC_RHS,
1112        GAD_C2_ADV_R, GAD_U3_ADV_R, GAD_C4_ADV_R, GAD_DIFF_R, GAD_BIHARM_R
1113        + also in GMREDI_X/Y/RTRANSPORT ; and update corresponding calls in
1114        S/R temp/salt/ptracers_integrate.F
1115    o model/src & pkg/ptracers:
1116      - remove common block variables gT,gS (in DYNVARS.h), except when
1117         USE_OLD_EXTERNAL_FORCING is defined; update TAF storage accordingly.
1118      - remove common block variable gPtr.
1119    o model/src & pkgs:
1120      - change gTracer (and/or tracer) argument (drop bi,bj indices) in S/R
1121         ADAMS_BASHFORTH(2&3), CYCLE_(AB_)TRACER, FREESURF_RESCALE_G,
1122         IMPLDIFF, SOLVE_TRIDIAGONAL & _PENTADIAGONAL, GAD_SOM_ADVECT,
1123         GAD_ADVECTION, GAD_CALC_RHS, GAD_IMPLICIT_R, TIMEAVE_CUMUL_DIF_1T
1124      + change accordingly all calling S/R.
1125      - use local temperature/salinity/ptracer tendency array (without bi,bj)
1126        in S/R temp/salt/ptracers_integrate.F
1127    o pkg/seaice:
1128      - move computation of stress contributions to rhsU/V in s/r seaice_lsr
1129        to separate s/r seaice_lsr_rhsu/v in order to be able to re-use code
1130      - make u/vIceC local variables if SEAICE_CGRID is defined only to be used
1131        in seaice_lsr
1132      - seaice_lsr.F: make local 4D arrays UXX, VYY, etc 2D
1133        in s/r seaice_lsr_calc_coeffs
1134    o pkg/mdsio:
1135      - in MDS_READ/WRITE_FIELD, stop if file-name (+prefix) is too long
1136        (e.g., > MAX_LEN_MBUF -90 ) or, in INI_MODEL_IO, if mdsioLocalDir is
1137        too long (e.g., > MAX_LEN_FNAM/2 )
1138    
1139    checkpoint65b (2014/08/12)
1140    o pkg/matrix:
1141      - pass, as argument, updated tracer field to S/R MATRIX_STORE_TENDENCY_EXP
1142    o model/src:
1143      - fix initialisation of geothermalFile; compile geothermal-flux code in
1144        natl_box verification experiment.
1145    o model/src & pkg/down_slope:
1146      - push the k loop inside S/R TIMESTEP_TRACER (now called outside the k loop).
1147      - in dwnslp_apply.F, update tracer tendency instead of the future tracer
1148        field and call S/R DWNSLP_APPLY before TIMESTEP_TRACER; this affects
1149        results at machine truncation level: update output of experiments
1150        global_ocean.90x40x15.dwnslp (FWD) and lab_sea.noseaicedyn (AD).
1151    o pkg/diagnostics (Stats-Diags):
1152      - do not cumulate the full volume when DIAGNOSTICS_FILL is
1153        called with bibjFlg < 0 (no increment of the counter for 2D/3D diag);
1154        This fix the mean statistics when DIAGNOSTICS_FILL is called multiple
1155        times (but Min,Max and StD are still wrong).
1156    o model/src:
1157      - add geothermal flux forcing: read in ini_forcing.F as time-constant
1158        field "geothermalFlux" applied in S/R APPLY_FORCING_T (apply_forcing.F)
1159    o model/src:
1160      - move CYCLE_TRACER calls from tracers_correction_step.F to temp/salt/ptracer
1161        _integrate.F so that, when leaving S/R THERMODYANMICS, theta,salt and pTrac
1162        arrays are already updated while adjustments (filters, conv.adjustment) are
1163        still applied later, in S/R TRACERS_CORRECTION_STEP.
1164    o model/src:
1165      - store in common bloc array "rhoInSitu" the virtual potential temperature
1166        anomaly that is used to compute geopotential: this make the atmos code
1167        more similar to ocean code which already uses rhoInSitu in calc_phi_hyd.F
1168    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F
1169      - rename integer variable ilcall to ipass (that's what it is called
1170        in the residual diagnostics
1171      - change time stepping for NPSEUDOTIMESTEP > 2 (does not change the
1172        default) for improved non-linear convergence of the first few steps
1173      - adjust a few comments and add new ones to explain some of the store
1174        directives
1175    o pkg/generic_advdiff (& ptracers):
1176      - re-work the code to check for valid advection scheme and for minimum
1177        size of overlap (now stored in local common bloc in gad_advscheme.F)
1178    o pkg/seaice: another attempt to make the adjoint work for sea ice dynamics
1179      - re-initialize more variables in seaice_lsr: u/vIceC, u/vIceNm1
1180      - add an auxilliary variable "bet" and fix store directives and keys in
1181        seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v, this seems to do the trick (i.e. more or
1182        less exact gradients in my tests); but there are still
1183        recomputation warning (although gradients are sort of OK), when
1184        SEAICE_LSR_VECTORIZE is not defined, so this flag and
1185        SEAICE_LSR_VECTORIZE_ZEBRA are recommended for efficiency.
1186      - update verification experiments lab_sea.
1187      - change some comments in S/R seaice_calc_viscosities
1188    o model/src:
1189      - if staggerTimeStep=T, always apply exchange to velocity field in
1190        do_stagger_fields_exchanges.F instead of in do_fields_blocking_exchanges.F
1191        (independent of using multi-dim advection or not); no effect on FWD run
1192        but affects AD results (at machine truncation level): update output of
1193        experiment 1D_ocean_ice_column (ad: 12 digits), hs94.1x64x5 (ad,oad: 13.d)
1194        and isomip (oad: 12.d).
1195    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
1196      - stop if doAB_onGtGs is set to FALSE but ignored
1197      - refine warning related to stability of tracer time-stepping
1198        regarding internal wave dynamics.
1199      - setting of AdamsBashforth_T,S when doAB_onGtGs=F: remove condition
1200        on staggerTimeStep & implicitIntGravWave (will now get a warning
1201        if potentially unstable).
1202    o pkg/kl10:
1203      - add new pkg "kl10" for mixing due to internal wave breaking, from
1204        http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1463500310000144
1205        (contribution from Jody Klymak), tested in verification experiment
1206        verification/internal_wave/input.kl10/
1207    o isomip experiment:
1208      - test pkg/shelfice with Non-Lin Free-Surf in one of the FWD set-up
1209        (input.htd) and update the output.
1210    o cd_code experiments:
1211      - use default cd_code options (#undef CD_CODE_NO_AB_MOMENTUM &
1212        #undef CD_CODE_NO_AB_CORIOLIS) in experiments: cfc_example (fwd)
1213        global_ocean.90x40x15 (ad & oad) and OpenAD (ad & oad) and
1214        update the corresponding output.
1215    o pkg/seaice:
1216      - reduce the number of include files and store directives in
1217        S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
1218      - change the order of loops in one case in S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagv
1219        (only for SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA defined), which allows me to
1220        get rid off one store directive (a TAF bug?)
1221      - add one more instance of ifdef SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA in
1222        S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagv to change the loop range for consistency
1223      - remove ilcall, m from parameter list of S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
1224      - fix a bug that affects the JFNK solver: replace sNx/y by i/jMax in
1225        S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v (requires update of
1226        offline_exf_seaice/input.dyn_jfnk)
1227    
1228    checkpoint65a (2014/07/27)
1229    o model/src:
1230      - Non-Lin Free-Surf in p/z coords: allows hFacW,S to be larger than
1231        surrounding hFacC=1 @ edge of a step with different kSurfC on either side
1232        (topo in p-coords, ice-shelf in z-coords); update output of experiments
1233        tutorial_global_oce_in_p and isomip (both AD and OpenAD output).
1234    o model/src:
1235      - collect momentum forcing tendency into local 2-D array (passed as argument
1236        to apply_forcing S/R); this simplifies mom. Forcing diagnostics and CD_CODE
1237        parts in timestep.F (without CD_CODE_NO_AB_MOMENTUM defined = the default);
1238        affects results at machine truncation level (e.g., if using OBCS_SPONGE).
1239      - collect T & S forcing tendency into local 2-D array (passed as argument to
1240        apply_forcing S/R); add 3-D diagnostics for temp & salt forcing tendency.
1241        affects results at machine truncation level (e.g., ocean: if using
1242        SHORTWAVE_HEATING ; atmos: if using FrictionHeating or (atm_Rq<>0) moist
1243        correction due to vertical advection).
1244      - update output of experiments: fizhi-cs-32x32x40 (13 digits),
1245        global_ocean.cs32x15 (fwd: icedyn, seaice, thsice, all 3 @ 11d; adm & tml:
1246        seaice_dynmix & thsice, fwd grd @ 3 & 8), hs94.1x64x5 (ad grd @ 13),
1247        obcs_ctrl (ad & fwd grd @ 12 & 7).
1248    o pkg/ptracers & diagnostics:
1249      - use ptracers (short) name (instead of long one) to make ptracers diagnostics
1250        title (to avoid some unexpected truncation); sort out ptracers diags units.
1251      - collect ptracer forcing tendency into local 2-D array (passed as argument
1252        to apply_forcing S/R); add 3-D diagnostics for ptracers forcing tendency.
1253    
1254    checkpoint65 (2014/07/18)
1255    o pkg/fizhi:
1256      - add parenthesis around fizhi tendencies in fizhi_tendency_apply.F: this
1257        affects results at machine truncation level. Update output of experiments
1258        fizhi-cs-32x32x40 (12 digits for cg2d) & fizhi-cs-aqualev20 (13 digits).
1259    o pkg/seaice: more clean up
1260      - rename TAF common block tapes to be more consistent and remove
1261        unnecessary duplicates
1262      - add store directives to remove more recomputations, but use smaller
1263        tapes (and adjust keys) when SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER is undefined.
1264        The idea behind this flag is to reduce the memory footprint when the
1265        adjoint of the LSR is not required. As of now, defining the flag
1266        SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER increases 4 common block tapes for 2D field by
1267        a factor of SOLV_MAX_FIXED (=500 by default in SEAICE_SIZE.h).
1268        For experiment offline_exf_seaice, this means on a linux box with gfortran
1269        nearly a factor of 10 (but keep in mind there is mostly seaice code in
1270        this experiment):
1271        > size mitgcmuv_ad
1272        text    data        bss     dec        hex
1273        5100659 1216  220458952  225560827  d71c8fb
1274        5339425 1200 1868783272 1874123897 6fb4dc79 (SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER)
1275        but only a moderate increase of 36% for global_ocean.cs32x15:
1276        text    data        bss     dec        hex
1277        6695027 1648 1014578664 1021275339 3cdf6ccb
1278        6695203 1648 1382505320 1389202171 52cd8afb (SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER)
1279      - note: there are still recomputations in global_ocean.cs32x15 and
1280        offline_exf_seaice and the gradient agreement changes (gets a
1281        little worse) for global_ocean.cs32x15 (-> update output_adm.seaice.txt)
1282      - in general, the AD gradients still are wrong
1283    o OpenAD
1284      - clean up code_oad/ directories somewhat by moving files
1285        dontCompile, dontTransform, keepOriginal to OAD_support/
1286    o model/src:
1287      - using MOM fluxform and Non-Lin Free-Surf with momDissip_In_AB=F
1288        (not currently tested): add dissipation terms before NLFS rescaling of
1289        tendencies (previously done after).
1290    o pkg/diagnostics:
1291      - write stats-diags in ascii file with more digits (same as in monitor).
1292    o pkg/down_slope:
1293      - drop the bi,bj dimension of argument recip_hFac in S/R DWNSLP_APPLY; with
1294        NLFS (not tested), use new recip_hFac value in order to conserve tracer.
1295    o model/src:
1296      - new file "apply_forcing.F" containing all the code previously in
1297        external_forcing.F, but with new argument list: pass, as new argument,
1298        the current level tendency array to update (instead of a direct update
1299        of the common bloc array). Change the corresponding calls.
1300      - add CPP option USE_OLD_EXTERNAL_FORCING (default is undef) to use
1301        EXTERNAL_FORCING_U,V,T,S subroutines (for backward compatibility).
1302    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr, a little bit of clean up
1303      - rearrange some code blocks, so that now all calculations for
1304        setting up the right-hand-sides done within one single block
1305        (I find that easier to read and understand)
1306      - rearrange freedrift-code to reduce the number of ifdefs
1307      - adjust some indentations and comments
1308    
1309    checkpoint64z (2014/07/10)
1310    o model/src and several pkgs:
1311      - change argument list of all S/R called from external_forcing.F and
1312        called from ptracers_forcing.F (renamed to ptracers_apply_forcing.F)
1313        to pass, as argument, the current level tendency array to update
1314        (instead of a direct update of the common bloc array).
1315      - change also (in the same way) argument list of PTRACERS_APPLY_FORCING;
1316      - rename taueddy_external_forcing.f to taueddy_tendency_apply.F
1317    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F
1318      - always initialize local arrays in seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
1319      - add more local tapes to seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
1320      - move storing u/vice(:,:,bi,bj) out of seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v, but
1321        keep it in bi/bj loop; this seems to be essential
1322      - gradients are still wrong but only by 4-7 orders of magnitude
1323        instead of 15 orders of magnitude, lab_sea improves a little
1324    o pkg/seaice
1325      - (pkg/autodiff) remove storing/restoring of seaiceMaskU/V that
1326        generates unnecessary code in seaice_lsr_ad
1327      - add more store directives in seaice_lsr to avoid unnecessary code
1328        in seaice_lsr_ad
1329      - exclude some residual computations in seaice_lsr when
1330        ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC is defined in order to avoid unnecessary code
1331        in seaice_lsr_ad
1332      - add more storing, a new tape (model/src/the_main_loop.F) and
1333        another key for SEAICE_LSR_VECTORIZE_ZEBRA (the local keys ilockey
1334        and klockey should be checked by a specialist)
1335      - modify ( define SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR and SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER )
1336        and update lab_sea after previous changes in pkg/seaice below
1337    o pkg/autodiff:
1338      - introduce useSmoothCorrel2DinAdMode, SEAICEapproxLevInAd, and
1339        viscFacInAd : run time parameters allowing for adjoint switches
1340        note : logic for useSmoothCorrel2DinAdMode is in ctrl_readparms.F
1341    o pkg/ecco:
1342      - introduce cost_gencost_boxmean.F that computes a box mean
1343        temperature (for use in adjoint sensitivity studies).
1344    o model/src/set_defaults.F : initialize viscFacAdj to 1.
1345    o pkg/mom_common/mom_calc_visc.F:
1346      - ifdef ALLOW_AUTODIFF then include viscFacAdj factor.
1347    o pkg/seaice/seaice_summary.F:
1348      - statement for SEAICEadjMODE now in autodiff_readparms.F
1349    o pkg/seaice:
1350      - remove some store directives and add new ones in an effort to get
1351        finally rid off the recomputation warnings. This is successful
1352        when SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR ***and*** SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER are
1353        defined (i.e. no extensive recomputation warnings left), but there
1354        are still too many recomputations on the solver iteration level
1355      - define SEAICE_VECTORISZE_LSR in offline_exf_seaice/code_ad/SEAICE_OPTIONS.h
1356      - move definition of MPSEUDOTIMESTEPS into TAMC-block in
1357        SEAICE_SIZE.h
1358      - add a store directive in S/R seaice_calc_viscosities
1359    o pkg/seaice (ITD code):
1360      - fix definition of Hlimit for multi-threaded case
1361      - use double precision arithmetic to compute Hlimit: this affects results;
1362        update output of experiment seaice_itd.
1363    o replace content of verification/seaice_itd
1364      - instead of a 1D column use the configuration of offline_exf_seaice
1365        to test the ice thickness distribution code with ridging
1366      - this is a first shot at this experiment
1367      - change of some defaults of ridging parameters SEAICEhStar (from
1368        100 to 25) and SEAICEmuRidging (from 5 to 3) in seaice_readparms.F
1369        and lot of new comments.
1370    
1371    checkpoint64y (2014/06/20)
1372    o pkg/seaice/seaice_reg_ridge.F:
1373      - modify the regularization of very small volumes of ice; only check
1374        total volume HEFF, and do not apply correction to individual ice
1375        classes because that leads to funny patterns in the heat and fw-fluxes
1376        into the ocean. Adjust seaice_itd/results/output.txt
1377      - replace nITD by SEAICE_multDim in loop-ranges
1378    o pkg/exf:
1379      - add code to process the case field period = -12. with UV interpolation.
1380      - move debug print (formerly active when exf_verbose=T) from EXF_getFFieldRec
1381        into S/R that calls it (i.e., exf_set_gen.F, exf_set_uv.F & obcs_exf_load.F)
1382    o verification/global_with_exf:
1383      - switch all fields period to -12. (was previously untested) in input/data.exf
1384        (but keep secondary test ".yearly" unchanged); update the reference output.
1385    o pkg/cal:
1386      - new calendar type "noLeapYear" for 365 days calendar without any leap year.
1387    o pkg/exf:
1388      - new integer parameter "exf_debugLev" (default set to main model debugLevel)
1389        to replace logical switch "exf_verbose"
1390      - report in STDOUT when loading a new record (if exf_debugLev >= 3)
1391    o pkg/sbo:
1392      - update from Katherine Quinn: evaluate mass directly from density and SSH
1393        (budget using Finite Volume method) instead of from bottom pressure.
1394      - allow testreport to collect few selected SBO output ; tested in exp.
1395        global_ocean.90x40x15 (after updating the results, to include SBO output).
1396      - fix some multi-threading issues (in output part).
1397    o model/src & most packages:
1398      - always call {PKG}_READPARMS even if corresponding use{PKG}=F;
1399      - in {PKG}_READPARMS, in case use{PKG}=F: add a call to new S/R
1400        PACKAGES_UNUSED_MSG to print a weak warning when parameter file
1401        "data.{pkg}" exist ; and leave the S/R (return) just after.
1402      - more standard LAND pkg interface (land_init_fixed.F, land_check.F).
1403        + call LAND_READPARMS from packages_readparms.F
1404    o pkg/seaice:
1405      - remove code that resets useThSice in S/R seaice_readparms and
1406        replace it by a warning in S/R seaice_check
1407      - remove parameter MULTDIM, replace with nITD and runtime
1408        parameter SEAICE_multDim (still hard-wired to nITD if
1409        SEAICE_ITD is defined)
1410    
1411    checkpoint64x (2014/05/24)
1412    o verification/lab_sea:
1413      - update adjoint and TLM output following changes to pkg/salt_plume
1414      - un-do the update after putting back local recip_Cp in few places.
1415    o pkg/salt_plume: modifications by An Nguyen:
1416      - add capability to do brine rejection (salt-plume) as function of
1417        volume+tracers (instead of only salinity tracer).
1418      - conserve volume by exchanging volume from each kLev to above to
1419        accommodate in-coming brine volume
1420      - store surface and klev exchanged fraction + volume in 4 new 3-d arrays
1421      - switch KPP surf buoyancy due to brine forcing to 3-d
1422        (3 more 3-d arrays, 2 for SPforcing[T,S], 1 for boplume)
1423      - add salt_plume_volfrac, salt_plume_apply, salt_plume_tendency_apply_t
1424      - unrelatedly, also add ad-hoc capability to vary salt_plume scheme
1425        in East/West Arctic.
1426    o pkg/sbo:
1427      - incorporate modifications from Katherine Quinn to enable the use of sbo
1428        pkg in ECCO-v4 set-up ; remove SBO-TimeAve output ; add monitor-like
1429        output for future testreport verification (unfinished).
1430    o pkg/atm_phys:
1431      - change diagnostics (AtPh_Trf & AtPh_Qrf) of DARGAN_BETTSMILLER S/R:
1432        skip the reseting of t_ref & q_ref to initial t & q ; this preserve the
1433        output of S/R CAPECALCNEW (Parcel temp & q) for diagnostics.
1434    o pkg/seaice
1435      seaice_calc_ice_strength.F: modify expression to avoid divisions
1436        (affects truncation)
1437      seaice_do_ridging.F: clean up the insectarium
1438      - fix a bug that was compensated by areaScaling (-> remove areaScaling code)
1439      - added SEAICEsnowFracRidge to redistributed snow (2nd bug)
1440      - set closing/openingRate to zero where no extra iteration is need (3rd bug)
1441      - add some debugging information and error messages (warnings)
1442    o model/src: modifications relatd to atmosphere p*:
1443      - Switch to more accurate p* coordinate slope term (calc_grad_phi_hyd.F)
1444      - With p* or Sigma-P, use constant reference Pot.Temp (thetaConst) instead
1445        of vertical profile tRef in geopotential background and anomaly.
1446      - Acount for true p* correction in theta <-> T conversion in pkg/aim_v23
1447        and pkg/atm_phys.
1448      - Update FWD output of experiments: aim.5l_cs (x2), fizhi-cs-32x32x40,
1449        fizhi-cs-aqualev20, fizhi-gridalt-hs, tutorial_held_suarez_cs, cpl_aim+ocn.
1450    o pkg/seaice: fix a bug in seaice_prepare_ridging.F, forgot a sqrt
1451    o pkg/ptracers: compute ptracer source/sink due to linear free surface.
1452        not used right now, but can be used in BGC packages to fix conservation.
1453    o pkg/dic, pkg/gchem: move tracer_meanarea to gchem, so it can be used by
1454        other packages too.
1455    o pkg/seaice/seaice_calc_ice_strength.F: replace SEAICE_rhoSnow by
1456        SEAICE_rhoIce in the Rothrock (1975)-type strength calculations (bug fix)
1457    o model/src:
1458      - since we have several heat capacity (even in model/src), define "recip_Cp"
1459        as local variable (no longer in common block) to avoid any confusion.
1460      - add thetaConst in PARAMS.h (to be used with pStar or sigma-P coords).
1461    o pkg/exf:
1462      - from Jeff Scott: add option (#define EXF_CALC_ATMRHO) to calculate local
1463        air density as function of air Temp, Humidity and atm pressure.
1464    
1465    checkpoint64w (2014/05/02)
1466    o verification:
1467      - update output_adm.txt files for experiment global_ocean.cs32x15 (seaice &
1468        seaice_dynmix) and lab_sea (primary test & noseaicedyn): moving/changing
1469        code from seaice_growth.F & seaice_advdiff.F to new ridging routines
1470        seaice_reg_ridge.F seaice_do_ridging.F affects AD gradient
1471        (down to 8-7 matching digits for global_ocean and 5-6 for lab_sea).
1472    o model/src: for atmosphere in p* coords:
1473      - store factor rStarFacC**atm_kappa (= pStarFacK) in common block
1474      - implement more accurate p* coordinate slope term (in calc_grad_phi_hyd.F),
1475        but not yet activated.
1476    o pkg/seaice: fix restart problem for ITD with new ice strength parameterisation:
1477      - move computation of opnWtrFrac = 1-AREA to before computing ice strength
1478      - this changes the results (but not for any verification experiment, because
1479        none tests this), but avoids having an extra field in the restart files
1480    o pkg/seaice: remove global variable TICE (not needed)
1481      - replace by TICES or local variable where necessary (cost_seaice_test,
1482        seaice_diagnostics_state)
1483      - move copying TICE to TICES from seaice_check_pickup to seaice_read_pickup
1484      - use specific read/write routines for reading and writing individual leves
1485        of a multilevel field
1486    o pkg/ctrl & model/inc:
1487      - move additional anomaly fields of control vars (related to options:
1488         ALLOW_KAPGM_CONTROL, ALLOW_KAPREDI_CONTROL and ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG_CONTROL)
1489        from DYNVARS.h into new header file: CTRL_FIELDS.h
1490    o pkg/seaice: some small modifications to the ridging code
1491      - make fw2ObyRidge a global variable and add the freshwater flux to
1492        seaice_growth
1493      - pass actual thickness from seaice_prepare_ridging, so that it is
1494        computed only in one place and compute it in the same way as in
1495        seaice_growth
1496      - initialise more fields in seaice_do_ridging that where cause floating
1497        point exceptions over land
1498    o pkg/seaice: preparations for ridging code and first real ridging code
1499      - move most of "PART 1" of S/R seaice_growth into a new and separate
1500        S/R seaice_reg_ridge that will both regularize the state variable after
1501        advection call the actual ridging routine;
1502      - requires to make 5 fields global fields: d_HEFFbyNEG,d_HSNWbyNEG,
1503        d_AREAbyRLX,d_HEFFbyRLX,saltFluxAdjust;
1504      - remove ridging code from seaice_advdiff
1505      - clean up remaining part 1 of seaice_growth in an attempt to make it
1506        more readable (this is probably subjective)
1507      - call seaice_itd_redist once in the initialisation phase to have the initial
1508        conditions in the correct category
1509      - finally: add new ridging routine for ITD code
1510    
1511    checkpoint64v (2014/04/11)
1512    o pkg/ecco:
1513      - add runtime parameters mdt[start,end]date[1,2]
1514      - rename variable "tpmean" as "mdt" and "topexmeanfile" as "mdtdatfile"
1515    o pkg/seaice:
1516      - make deltaC a global variable, so that it can be used in ridging code
1517      - first step towards ridging: introduce new routines that compute
1518        ice strength based on ridging parameters
1519      - add diagnostic for HSNOWITD
1520      - add opnWtrFrac as a global variable (required for ridging scheme)
1521    o pkg/salt_plume + pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F
1522      - add SALT_PLUME_IN_LEADS flag to activate pkg/salt_plume only when ice
1523        AREA exceeds a threshold (code contributed by I.Fenty in 2011)
1524    o verification/hs94.1x64x5:
1525      - leave ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC undefined in code_oad/AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h
1526      - do not use ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h anymore for TAF & OpenAD Adjoint tests.
1527    o autodiff:
1528      - Start to include explicitly AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, COST_OPTIONS.h,
1529        and CTRL_OPTIONS.h in src files (to enable to skip the ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h)
1530        For now, only in pkgs used in verification/hs94.1x64x5.
1531      - Replace ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC by ALLOW_AUTODIFF (except for tape/storage
1532        which are specific to TAF/TAMC).
1533      - Replace ALLOW_AUTODIFF_OPENAD by ALLOW_OPENAD:
1534        since ALLOW_OPENAD is defined in PACKAGES_CONFIG.h (any time pkg/openad
1535        is compiled), this simplifies/reduces which *_OPTIONS.h file to include.
1536      - OpenAD: change Makefile to generate the appropriate AD_CONFIG.h when
1537        building mitgcmuv_ad (make adAll).
1538    o pkg/ecco:
1539      - cost_gencost_seaicev4.F:
1540         reformulate proxy cost as function of sst and local param SEAICE_freeze
1541         change cost names from siv4-[sst,vol] to siv4-[deconc,exconc]
1542      - add stop statement if old names siv4-[sst,vol] are used
1543      - add snapshots + cost reports for atmospheric longwave
1544      - remove factor 0.1 in front of wtau[u,v]
1545      - replace never used flag ALLOW_TMI_COST_CONTRIBUTION with
1546         ALLOW_TMI_SST_COST_CONTRIBUTION
1547    o pkg/atm_phys:
1548      - add some diagnostics for Short-wave and for convection S/R.
1549    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth:
1550      - fix a bug in the lateral melt parameterization for SEAICE_ITD
1551        in seaice_growth; tempFrz needs to be computed inside the i/j-loop
1552      - rearrange loop order for better vector code in the same code block
1553      - rewrite the floeDiameter formula to have fewer divisions
1554      -  (miraculously) none of this changes the results of seaice_itd
1555    o pkg/smooth:
1556      - move param smooth2Ddiffnbt to pkg/ecco
1557    o pkg/salt_plume:
1558      - salt_plume_frac.F:
1559         clean up local param names
1560         reformulate (1-frac) to frac; original 1-frac was based on swfrac code
1561    o pkg/rw:
1562      - add RS version of S/R READ_MFLDS_LEV.
1563    o pkg/streamice:
1564      - fix the restart test by writing/reading pickup_streamice files.
1565    o pkg/seaice:
1566      - refine checks for jfnk-related parameters
1567      - comment out if statement with SEAICEuseIMEX parameter as long as there
1568        is no IMEX code to avoid confusion and surprises
1569    
1570    checkpoint64u (2014/03/07)
1571    o verification/MLAdjust:
1572      - rename secondary test suffix:
1573         1.leith  -> A4FlxF  + switch to flux-form & add side-drag
1574         0.leithD -> AhFlxF  + switch to flux-form
1575         0.smag   -> AhVrDv  (use Vorticity-Div. visc form) + add side-drag
1576         0.leith  -> AhStTn  (use Strain-Tension visc form) + add side-drag
1577    o pkg/mom_vecinv:
1578      - remove unused arguments from S/R MOM_VI_HDISSIP & MOM_HDISSIP (as it used
1579        to be before mom_calc_visc.F)
1580      - skip the call to MOM_CALC_TENSION & MOM_CALC_STRAIN if not needed.
1581      - add 2nd copy of vort3 & strain that knows about lateral BC (free/no slip):
1582        this is simpler for the adjoint and for diagnostics.
1583    o model/src + pkg/momentum:
1584      - add input files for  2-D additional Western and Southern cell-edge wall
1585         (e.g., to add "thin-wall" where it is =1).
1586      - fix sideDrag option for thin-walls with Non-Lin Free-Surf
1587        using 2nd hFacZ that is computed from initial (fix domain) hFac
1588      - known limitations of thin wall implementation: not yet coded for sigma
1589        coords; not working with CD-scheme neither.
1590    o pkg/seaice:
1591      - rename recently introduced parameters from (wrong name) AB to
1592        BDF (backward difference time discretisation)
1593      - retire runtime parameters SEAICEuseAB2, SEAICE_abEps
1594    o tools/adjoint_options:
1595      - remove setting of "OPENAD=true" (now set by command line "genmake2 -oad")
1596    
1597    checkpoint64t (2014/02/01)
1598    o pkg/ecco
1599      - add compile flag ALLOW_GENCOST_TIMEVARY_WEIGHT in ECCO_OPTIONS.h and
1600        runtime logical flag gencost_timevaryweight to read daily sea-ice sigma
1601      - replace hard-coded record number and period which only work for monthly
1602        with read-in runtime param that works for other periods (month,day,year)
1603    o pkg/thsice
1604      - corrected store directive fixes thsice adjoint gradient checks
1605    o genmake2 & testreport:
1606      - add genmake2 option "-oad" to generate a Makefile for OpenAD built and
1607        in this case, use tools/adjoint_options/adjoint_oad as default AD optfile.
1608        Update testreport accordingly. No need to set "export OPENAD=true"
1609        in adjoint_options/adjoint_oad anymore (will be removed later).
1610    o pkg/shelfice:
1611      - put T & S shelfice forcing into model surfaceForcing_T,_S (for now,
1612        only if SHELFICEboundaryLayer=F); Change model/src/external_forcing.F
1613        so that surface forcing applies to k=kSurf if using pkg/shelfice.
1614    o pkg/ctrl, pkg/grdchk, pkg/ecco:
1615      - Changes to make GENARR more modular (i.e. invisible if not used)
1616    o model/src/temp_integrate.F and salt_integrate.F
1617      - re-include store directives that were removed on Dec 27th.
1618    o model/src/external_forcing_surf.F
1619      - add storage directives for EmPmR and PmEpR to avoid recomputation of
1620        seaice_model in the adjoint that is problematic when seaice_model is
1621        turned off in the adjoint. The resolved issue dated back to July when
1622        EXTERNAL_FORCING_SURF call was moved.
1623        Update global_ocean.cs32x15/*/output_adm.seaice_dynmix.txt accordingly.
1624    o pkg/exf/exf_check.F
1625      - fix a small bug again (originally found by Wentao Liu, now found again)
1626      - streamline error output
1627    o pkg/streamice and aim_v23:
1628      - replace a few "_EXCH_XY_RL (" with "_EXCH_XY_RL(", so that
1629        Apple's /usr/bin/cpp knows what to do:
1630        Apple LLVM version 5.0 (clang-500.2.79) (based on LLVM 3.3svn)
1631        Target: x86_64-apple-darwin13.0.0
1632    
1633    checkpoint64s (2014/01/05)
1634    o tools/adjoint_options:
1635      - switch to fastopt.net TAF server (instead of default fastopt.de) for
1636        AD optfiles adjoint_diva & adjoint_f95 (similar to adjoint_default).
1637    o model/src:
1638      - remove some unnecessary TAF storage directives in forward_step.F and
1639        in dynamics.F (note: not always removed by TAF, e.g., double storage
1640        of kappaRU,kappaRV in former version of dynamics.F).
1641    o model/src & pkg/ptracers:
1642      - call directly GAD_IMPLICIT_R & IMPLDIFF + DWNSLP_APPLY from temp_integrate.F
1643        salt_integrate.F and ptracers_integrate.F (instead of from thermodynamics.F)
1644        and remove ptracers_dwnslp_apply.F & ptracers_implicit.F
1645      - call MATRIX_STORE_TENDENCY_EXP for each tracer (in ptracers_integrate.F)
1646      - add fZon & fMer as output argument of S/R GAD_CALC_RHS.
1647      - update TAF AD-output of experiments global_ocean.90x40x15 (13 for AD-grad).
1648    o useSingleCpuInput separates single-CPU input from single-CPU output;
1649        for now only implemented for in exf_interp_read.F
1650    o verification/advect_xy:
1651      - fix missing EXCH call in local version of ini_salt.F and update output.
1652    o momentum diagnostics:
1653      - fix which deltaT is used in Total-Tendency diagnostics.
1654      - fix typo in diagnostics for momentum tendency from AB.
1655    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F: fix an initialisation bug for the
1656        SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA option that lead to NaNs on a NEC-SX8
1657    
1658    checkpoint64r (2013/12/08)
1659    o verification/*/results:
1660      - Update reference output of experiments that were passing with just 13 digits
1661         (make it easier to detect future changes in results)
1662    o model/src & pkg/ptracers:
1663      - move calls to GAD_ADVECTION (Multi-Dim advection) from thermodynamics.F to
1664        inside temp_integrate.F and salt_integrate.F and from ptracers_advection.F
1665        to inside ptracers_integrate.F ; remove ptracers_advection.F
1666    o coupling interface pkgs:
1667        [atm_compon_interf, ocn_compon_interf & atm_ocn_coupler]
1668      - change the config check to test the agreement of Ocean Depth
1669        with ATM land/sea mask (instead of ATM orography);
1670      - send to coupler the number of coupler time-steps to do for this run:
1671        this allows to check for consistency and don't need anymore to be
1672        specified in parameter file "data";
1673      in coupler:
1674      - check consistency of RunOff map versus Ocean Depth and ATM land/sea mask.
1675      - improve report to log-file of config setting (pass log-file unit to few S/R)
1676    o pkg/compon_communic:
1677      - add coupling send/receive for non-tiled integer vector;
1678      - add S/R to check and stop if any proc has an error (similar to
1679        eesupp/src/stop_if_error.F but single thread and across Comm_World).
1680    o pkg/exch2:
1681      - in exch2*_get_rx[1,2]: use new list "W2_tileIndex" to replace search
1682        through list of all tiles my proc owns.
1683    o model/src:
1684      - AUTODIFF only: in calc_adv_flow.F, recompute rTransKp (instead of copying
1685        from rTrans) to simplify dependencies (no need to store rTrans anymore in
1686        calling S/R); this affects AD results at machine truncation level:
1687        update AD-output (TAF) of experiments: 1D_ocean_ice_column,
1688        bottom_ctrl_5x5 & obcs_ctrl (12 digits for AD grad, same FWD grad).
1689    o tools/build_options:
1690      - simplify Warnings options (-ieee & -devel cases) in linux_amd64_gfortran
1691    o coupling interface pkgs:
1692        [compon_communic, atm_compon_interf & ocn_compon_interf]
1693      - move declaration of local array "ibuf" out of header file "CPLR_SIG.h"
1694        to each S/R that needs it; remove un-used variables.
1695      - change component tile registration (cpl_register.F in both compon_interf
1696        and mitcomponent_tile_register.F) to pass the full list of tiles
1697        information (including bi,bj) in 1 vector (instead of in a bi,bj matrix).
1698      - with pkg/exch2: adopt the same convention used for I/O to define mapping
1699        towards coupler global array (unless W2_useE2ioLayOut=F):
1700         a) can now use different tiling between atm & ocn comp.
1701         b) no needs to modify the run-Off map when changing tiling (was needed
1702            even if using the same tiling between atm & ocn).
1703         c) will allow to run with blank-tiles in 1 component (e.g., for ocean
1704            full land tiles); not yet tested.
1705      - check for valid mapping from comp. tile to coupler global array
1706      - improve report of tile registration results to log file.
1707    o pkg/exch2:
1708      - in eesupp/src/eeboot.F: move call to W2_EEBOOT before Coupler
1709        tile-registration (CPL_REGISTER);
1710      - activate (un-comment) definition and setting of "W2_tileIndex" list to
1711        store the local bi,bj indices of each tile;
1712      - also print bi,bj in local report to log file;
1713      - fix pkg/debug/debug_cs_corner_uv.F for the case nSy > 1 (left from
1714        Jun 2009 modif of pkg/exch2).
1715    o testing on baudelaire:
1716      - run 2 tests at a time: no significant slow down (since enough cpu) and
1717        get the full set of test done earlier
1718      - switch the ifort test to "-devel" ; run the OpenAD test everyday.
1719    o model/src/thermodynamics.F and routines called from it:
1720      - pkg/gmredi: gmredi_residual_flow.F (replacing gmredi_calc_uvflow.F &
1721        gmredi_calc_wflow.F) to update eulerian velocity (input) into residual
1722        velocity (outp) by adding bolus velocity.
1723      - model/src: calc_adv_flow.F (replacing calc_common_factors.F) to compute
1724        mass transport from velocity + lateral grid cell area
1725      - rename calc_gt.F to temp_integrate.F (includes call to TIMESTEP_TRACER)
1726      - rename calc_gs.F to salt_integrate.F (includes call to TIMESTEP_TRACER)
1727     in thermodynamics.F
1728      - remove k from thermodynamics.F and move it to temp_integrate.F
1729        salt_integrate.F and ptracers_integrate.F (now done inside the tracer
1730        loop).
1731      - compute locally (in thermodynamics.F) 3-D velocity field that is used to
1732        advect tracers; pass it as argument to GAD_ADVECTION, GAD_SOM_ADVECT,
1733        PTRACERS_ADVECTION, TEMP_INTEGRATE, SALT_INTEGRATE, PTRACERS_INTEGRATE,
1734        GAD_IMPLICIT_R and PTRACERS_IMPLICIT
1735      - update AD-output (TAF & OAD) of experiments: 1D_ocean_ice_column,
1736        global_ocean.90x40x15, tutorial_global_oce_biogeo and
1737        tutorial_tracer_adjsens (+ TLM output).
1738    o tools/OAD_support and (verification/*/) code_oad:
1739      - OAD_support/cb2mGetModules.csh: add PACKAGES_CONFIG.h in header file to
1740        module conversion ; remove unneeded CPP_EEOPTIONS.h.
1741      - code_oad/CPP_OPTIONS.h: remove PACKAGES_CONFIG.h and use a more standard
1742        version (closer to model/inc/CPP_OPTIONS.h).
1743    o model/src:
1744      - remove parameter "useOldFreezing" from PARAMS.h and push it to the
1745        retired list of parameters (routine FREEZE has been replace by surface
1746        freezing (10.yrs ago) and by pkg/frazil (interior freezing).
1747    o pkg/gmredi:
1748      - add option (GM_CALC_TRANSP_FROM_VEL) to compute transport directly from
1749        velocity (same scheme but affects machine truncation) for GM_AdvForm.
1750      - update output of FWD experiments: front_relax.bvp,
1751        global_ocean.90x40x15.dwnslp, global_ocean.cs32x15 and ideal_2D_oce.
1752    
1753    checkpoint64q (2013/11/17)
1754    o verification:
1755      - generate new output on baudelaire (gfortran, -ieee) for OpenAD experiments
1756        tutorial_global_oce_biogeo and global_ocean.90x40x15.
1757      - generate new output (growth & melt) for seaice_itd experiment after
1758        updating the input pickup_seaice files (previously wrong).
1759    o pkg/cost:
1760      - define a "final cost function" for each tile, and use GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL
1761        (instead of _GLOBAL_SUM_RL) to get the final cost from all procs & threads:
1762        o this fixes global-sum value if multi-threads (since GLOBAL_SUM_RL
1763          cannot be applied to var in common block).
1764        o allows to get results independent of tile-per-proc setting (if using
1765          slower GLOBAL_SUM_SEND_RECV option).
1766      - update accordingly: seaice_cost_final.F, shelfice_cost_final.F,
1767        thsice_cost_final.F and ecco_cost_final.F (this one affects lab_sea
1768        forward gradients: update output).
1769      - update */code_oad/externalDummies.F by adding dummy GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL
1770        S/R and, for most exp., also comment out GLOBAL_SUM_R8.
1771    o pkg/mom_common:
1772      - move to pkg/mom_common and model/src (previously in tutorial_deep_convection
1773        code) 2nd version of isotropic 3-D Smagorinsky code interface: strain and
1774        viscosity are locally declared in dynmics.F and pass as argument to CALC_GW;
1775        ensure that all field value that are used are set.
1776    o tutorial_deep_convection (smag3d):
1777      - add missing scaling in mom_calc_smag_3d.F;
1778      - set smag3D_coeff in input.smag3d such that results do not change.
1779    o pkg/dic:
1780      - change dic_cost.F to compute cost on each tile first and then apply
1781        GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL: this affects forward gradient of AD experiments
1782        tutorial_dic_adjoffline & tutorial_global_oce_biogeo; update output.
1783      - remove kLev argument and use GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL in tracer_meanarea.
1784    o eesupp/src & pkg/mdsio:
1785      - remove gather/scatter_vector.F (from eesupp) and mdsio_read/writevector.F
1786        (from pkg/mdsio) since they are no longer used for tape IO.
1787      - move simple C subroutine "setdir.c" from pkg/compon_communic to eesupp/src
1788        (+ keep a copy in pkg/atm_ocn_coupler).
1789    o verification/isomip:
1790      - split domain in 8 squared tiles (instead of just 2) for FWD, AD & OAD tests.
1791    o tools/build_options:
1792      - optfile linux_amd64_ifort11, fast (no ieee) case:
1793        to get a working restart for all experiments, add "-fp-model source"
1794        to FOPTIM (also remove "-opt-streaming-stores auto" <- this is the default).
1795    
1796    checkpoint64p (2013/10/20)
1797    o pkg/autodiff:
1798      - adread_adwrite.F: when type and length do not match ALLOW_AUTODIFF_WHTAPEIO
1799        criteria, return to simple (default) tape IO format.
1800    o pkg/mdsio (+ eesupp/src):
1801      - rewrite/simplify tape-IO S/R (new S/R MDS_READ/WRITE_TAPE replace
1802        previous MDSREAD/WRITEVECTOR) with 2 array argument from each type (R4/R8);
1803      - fix globalFile and singleCpuIO options using simpler global mapping.
1804      - new pairs of scatter/gather vector S/R (one for each type, generated from
1805        template) corresponding to simpler global mapping.
1806      - adread_write.F: switch to new S/R (but leave old calls commented) and write
1807        to globalFile when parameter globalFiles is set to True.
1808      - switch on useSingleCpuIO in AD experiments: global_ocean.90x40x15 & isomip.
1809    o pkg/autodiff:
1810      - adread_adwrite.F: add a hack for RS arrays (when RS=real*4);
1811        with ALLOW_AUTODIFF_WHTAPEIO defined, since corresponding (real*4) is
1812        missing, just add a STOP if array type do not match.
1813    o pkg/exf:
1814      - to allow to use seaice-fraction from pkg/exf in other pkgs than pkg/seaice:
1815         rename CPP option EXF_ALLOW_SEAICE_RELAX to EXF_SEAICE_FRACTION
1816         and rename array obsSIce to exf_iceFraction.
1817    o tutorial_deep_convection:
1818      - add 1rst version of isotropic 3-D Smagorinsky code (from Louis-Philippe),
1819        for now all in this exp. code dir.
1820      - add secondary test using Smag-3D viscosity (keep very low backgroud visc for
1821        testing) and flux-limter advection scheme for Temp. (no explicit diffusion).
1822    o eesupp/src:
1823      - added SINGLE_DISK_IO option because reading of parameter files on
1824        very large number of processors did not work with existing set-up
1825    
1826    checkpoint64o (2013/09/25)
1827    o pkg/atm_phys & atm_compon_interf:
1828      - allows for coupling of gray-atmosphere (atm_phys) with ocean.
1829    o tools/build_options:
1830      - switch from "-fPIC" to "-mcmodel=medium" in optfiles: linux_amd64_gfortran
1831        & linux_amd64_ifort11 and in linux_amd64_g77 & linux_amd64_open64 also
1832        remove CPP setting (was identical to genmake2 default).
1833    o pkg/gmredi & model/src: Some updating and work done on the residual model.
1834      - created new file model/src/calc_eddy_stress.F to calculate the eddy stress.
1835      - fixed up the calculation of the eddy stress and how it is added to the
1836        external forcing via taueddy_external_forcing.F
1837      - at the moment, it is very experimental and only works with the variable eddy
1838        diffusivity calculated in gmredi_k3d.F
1839    o pkg/seaice/seaice_check.F: add a check to catch the case of specifying
1840        lw/swfluxfile instead of lw/swdownfile in data.exf together with pkg/seaice
1841    o testreport (& tools/do_tst_2+2):
1842      - for MPI test, set default COMMAND to 'mpirun -v -np TR_NPROC ./{executable}'
1843    o tools/build_options: linux_amd64_gfortran & linux_amd64_ifort11:
1844      - remove CPP='cpp -traditional -P' (this is genmake2 default)
1845      - add switch (for big setups) to use 'medium' memory-model (but leave it
1846        commented out for now). Note: needed with FC 19 to compile big setups.
1847    o pkg/atm_compon_interf:
1848      - regroup per field origin (model & pkgs) the coupling storage routines
1849         (which accumalate in time each coupling field)
1850      - move bi,bj loops inside atm_store_my_data.F and store also wind-stress;
1851        update accordingly + simplify aim_do_physics.F
1852    
1853    checkpoint64n (2013/08/26)
1854    o pkg/bbl:
1855      - update formulation to reduce dispersion of tracer properties in bbl
1856      - replaced horizontal and vertical transport parameters with velocities
1857      - changes results for verification/global_with_exf.yearly
1858    o verification/halfpipe_streamice:
1859      - change to matrix construction; update both Fwd & AD output.
1860    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens:
1861      - OpenAD test: switch to vector-invariant momentum since fluxform with
1862        rStar causes problems with OpenAD; update output.
1863    o tools:
1864      - genmake2: define a common prefix for all temp-file names ; move them
1865        to local /tmp disk (but would be easy to move them back);
1866      - xmakedepend: apply the same switch for temp-files.
1867    o pkg/offline:
1868      - changes for use with rStar (NLFS): assume that we continue to provide
1869        UVELMASS/hFacW_ini & VVELMASS/hFacS_ini (hFacWi,S_ini as written in grid
1870        output files) and apply r* scaling at each time-step (function of the time
1871        varying Eta field); use normal pickup files (needed for restart with NLFS).
1872    o adjoint with OpenAD:
1873      - move OpenAD-specific files from verification/OpenAD/code_oad_all to a new
1874        package openad.  This package has to be compiled for all runs with OpenAD
1875        instead of specifying code_oad_all as a modification directory.
1876      - link the fortran templates from tools/OAD_support to the build directory
1877        for preprocessing to avoid conflicts between different setups compiled
1878        simultaneously and simplify cleanup.
1879    o pkg/exf:
1880      - in exf_getforcing.F: comment out most of the EXCH calls (fields used by
1881        main model or other pkgs are exchanged in EXF_MAPFIELDS).
1882    o model/src:
1883      - do_stagger_fields_exchanges.F: skip EXCH calls when using pkg/offline
1884        (similar to do_fields_blocking_exchanges.F).
1885    o tools/genmake2:
1886      - remove TAF output src code just before calling staf (when not doing a fresh
1887        built, will stop if things go wrong with staf).
1888      - fix target "adobj" (left from TAF version-2 transition)
1889    o pkg/diagnostics:
1890      - add a parameter to track the status of pkg/diagnostics activation;
1891        this replace/extend the use of logical param "settingDiags" (to check
1892        when adding diag to the list) to also check any DIAGNOSTICS_[]FILL* call.
1893        New S/R to print error message and stop when pkgStatus is not right.
1894      - to try: add a warning when "data.diagnostics" exist but useDiagnostics=F.
1895    
1896    checkpoint64m (2013/08/13)
1897    o model/inc:
1898      - move FCORI_MACROS.h from PARAMS(_MACROS).h to GRID_MACROS.h (left from
1899        8 yrs ago modif when Coriolis arrays were moved from PARAMS.h to GRID.h)
1900    o pkg/kpp & aim_v23:
1901      - only call DIAGNOSTICS_FILL when useDiagnostics=TRUE.
1902    o pkg/seaice:
1903      - restore (last time on 2011/12/24) ability to compile pkg/seaice with
1904        undefined pkg/exf ALLOW_ATM_TEMP or ALLOW_RUNOFF CPP-options.
1905      - only call DIAGNOSTICS_FILL when useDiagnostics=TRUE.
1906    o eesupp/src:
1907      - fix check for overlap-size argument (myOLn.GT.MAX_OLY_EXCH)
1908        in exch1_rx[_ad].template (thanks to Francois Lefeuvre report).
1909    o switch to TAF version-2:
1910      - add flow directives to "freeze" naming convention for ad-routines that
1911        are used in I/O routines of adjoint state and associated common blocks
1912        that are used in adcommon.h (backward compatible with version-1)
1913      - update all ad-optfiles (in tools/adjoint_options + few local to some
1914        verification exp) to switch to latest TAF version (currently 2.5.5);
1915        merge "*_mpi" adoptfiles into the corresponding non-mpi (but commented
1916        out except for diva).
1917      - the major change with TAF version-2 is that both the differentiated
1918        routines and the forward routines (new) are returned as part of the TAF
1919        output source code. Update genmake2 accordingly.
1920      - new output for AD experiment tutorial_global_oce_biogeo (better AD gradient
1921        with version-2 when compared to TLM or FWD gradient); other experiments
1922        output show minor changes (machine truncation level); update the few AD &
1923        TLM output with 12 matching digits only (some prior to version-2 switch).
1924    
1925    checkpoint64l (2013/08/05)
1926    o model/src:
1927      - in dynamics.F, skip the call to CALC_VISCOSITY if momViscosity=F
1928      - main_do_loop.F: no longer includes additional (AUTODIFF) header files
1929        when using TAF but only if using OpenAD.
1930    o pkg/mom_common+fluxform+vecinv:
1931      - always set horiz. viscosity arrays to background value before calling
1932        MOM_CALC_VISC (in MOM_FLUXFORM & MOM_VECINV) and call S/R MOM_CALC_VISC
1933        only when using variable horiz. viscosity (useVariableVisc=T);
1934      - simplify mom_vecinv.F (only 1 block for momViscosity).
1935    o pkg/mom_common: variable horiz. viscosity in NH code
1936      - move horiz-viscosity 3-D arrays viscAh_W & viscA4_W (used in calc_gw.F)
1937        from model/inc/NH_VARS.h to pkg/mom_common/MOM_VISC.h
1938      - store in common block (in MOM_VISC.h) logical parameters: useHarmonicVisc,
1939        useBiharmonicVisc & useVariableVisc.
1940      - fix old bug (already in 1rst implementation of variable horizontal viscosity
1941        in calc_gw.F, version 1.27, 2006/06/20):
1942        horizontal bi-harmonic viscosity in gW was missing when wiscA4W=0
1943        even if variable bi-harmonic viscosity (e.g., viscA4Grid) was non-zero.
1944      - change background horiz viscosity in vertical momentum (gW) to always be
1945        viscAhW,viscA4W (instead of switching to viscAhD, viscA4D when using
1946        any type of variable viscosity, e.g., viscAh/4Grid)
1947      - change default value of viscAhW,viscA4W to viscAhD,viscA4D (instead of
1948        viscAh,viscA4) which default to viscAh,viscA4 :  this avoid missing
1949        horiz. viscosity in W eq when just setting viscAhD/Z,viscA4D/Z (since
1950        default viscAh,viscA4 is zero).
1951    o model/src:
1952      - extend length of drC & recip_drC from Nr to Nr+1.
1953    o Divided Adjoint (DIVA) with MPI:
1954      - genmake2: do not create local ./mpi_headers dir when no file to copy into.
1955      - remove option ALLOW_DIVIDED_ADJOINT_MPI (replaced by ALLOW_DIVIDED_ADJOINT
1956        and ALLOW_USE_MPI) from model/src code and from ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h.
1957    
1958    checkpoint64k (2013/07/23)
1959    o tools/OAD_support:
1960      - avoid the need for file "oadtempflile" in insertTemplateDir.bash
1961        and remove it from genmake2.
1962    o tools/build_options:
1963      - remove MPI_HEADER_FILES_INC setting (no longer used) and comment out
1964        MPI_HEADER_FILES list (let genmake2 find the missing headers)
1965    o verification/halfpipe_streamice:
1966      - change to driving stress formulation; update both Fwd & AD output.
1967    o tools/genmake2 and Divided Adjoint with MPI:
1968      - remove default setting of MPIINCLUDEDIR from $MPIHOME (always been broken);
1969      - only create local ./mpi_headers dir if using MPI and MPIINCLUDEDIR is set;
1970      - add new variable (LOCAL_MPI_HEADERS, replace MPI_HEADER_FILES_INC) in
1971        Makefile, which is set by genmake2, and check which mpi-headers are needed.
1972        Note: need to update adjoint_options/adjoint_diva_mpi accordingly.
1973      - update target "CLEAN" (to also remove ./mpi_headers/ dir).
1974    o testreport:
1975      - changes for Divided Adjoint Run: when file "run_ADM_DIVA" is present,
1976        perform additional runs (number of additional runs is "add_DIVA_runs" taken
1977        from file run_ADM_DIVA ; should match "nchklev_3" in file "code_ad/tamc.h").
1978    o verification/lab_sea (AD test):
1979      - change to test Divided Adjoint Run in this set-up (both standard AD test
1980        and 2 secondary AD test: noseaice + noseaicedyn); drop the evp AD test.
1981    o pkg atm_ & ocn_compon_interf:
1982      - remove cpl_earlyExpImpCall=F option (was mainly a hack added for the old
1983        staggerTimeStep implementation) and disable (retired) corresponding
1984        parameter.
1985    o pkg/offline:
1986      - comment out unused field-array: ICEM, ConvectCount, hflx[01], icem[01];
1987      - add S/R OFFLINE_CHECK to print offline parameter summary
1988        and stop if loading a file that is not used;
1989      - enable to calculate GMRedi tensor, KPP mixing and convective index
1990        when the corresponding file(s) is/are not specified (but pkg is used).
1991      - comment out resetting of monitorFreq (to endTime) since it still useful
1992        for monitoring CFL numbers and checking offline fields.
1993    o OpenAD:
1994      - do not define OAD_DEBUG (in tools/adjoint_options/adjoint_oad) to get
1995        smaller standard output) and generate new (smaller) output (on baudelaire
1996        using gfortran with -ieee) for exp. tutorial_tracer_adjsens
1997    o model/src:
1998      - call EXTERNAL_FORCING_SURF outside bi,bj loops (in do_oceanic_phys.F),
1999        (where external_forcing_adjust was called) and change list of arguments;
2000      - merge external_forcing_adjust.F into external_forcing_surf.F
2001      - put surface relaxation of SST & SSS in new S/R (forcing_surf_relax.F)
2002        which also contains balancing surface relaxation (ALLOW_BALANCE_RELAX,
2003        previously in file "balance_relax.F", now removed); remove corresponding
2004        arrays in FFIELDS.h.
2005      - EXTERNAL_FORCING_SURF is now called when using pkg/offline; implement
2006        a hack for getting back surfaceForcingS (loaded from file) when using
2007        ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX (pkg/dic, in DIC_OPTIONS.h) in offline set-up.
2008      - update output of AD test experiment global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice_dynmix
2009        (was getting only 11 digits for AD-grad, due to different truncation
2010         error in AD code).
2011    
2012    checkpoint64j (2013/07/04)
2013    o pkg/offline:
2014      - to enable the use of other features with pkg offline (e.g., obcs),
2015        also call S/R DO_OCEANIC_PHYS in offline run - more modifs to come.
2016      - comment out "allowFreezing" (now active) in 2 offline testing exp.
2017    o pkg/exf ALLOW_RUNOFTEMP
2018      - fix sign and make compatible with temp_EvPrRn .NE. UNSET_RL
2019      - ahdded RUNOFTEMP test to verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.seaice
2020      - changes verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/results/output.seaice.txt
2021    o pkg/atm_phys:
2022      - allows to add some damping on uVel,vVel (strength only function of k).
2023    o verification, ad-tests:
2024      - reduce length of the simulation for AD test: global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice,
2025        global_ocean_ebm and offline_exf_seaice.thsice.
2026    o verification/halfpipe_streamice:
2027      - found a bug in s/r pkg/streamice/streamice_advect_thickness which caused
2028        flux input boundary conditions to be ignored; a fix for this bug changed
2029        verification results for forward test.
2030      - add adjoint test.
2031    o pkg/ptracers:
2032      - allow to restart without SOM pickup (resetting SOM to zero).
2033    o pkg/gmredi:
2034      - New parameterisation for the calculation of K and (GM_PsiX,GM_PsiY) added.
2035      - It uses mixing length theory and suppression by steering level effects to
2036        calculate a diffusivity used in the Redi tensor (see Bates et al., submitted
2037        to JPO, for more details).
2038      - It also uses the diffusivity to calculate an eddy induced streamfunction
2039        based on a PV closure (rather than a buoyancy closure as in GM).
2040      - New files added to pkg/gmredi:
2041        gmredi_k3d.F calculates the diffusivity for the Redi tensor and the eddy
2042          induced overturning streamfunction (called from gmredi_calc_tensor)
2043        gmredi_calc_eigs.F calculates the eigenvalues and eigenvectors required
2044          for use in gmredi_k3d
2045        gmredi_calc_urms.F calculates the the rms eddy velocity used to calculate
2046          the eddy diffusivity
2047    
2048    checkpoint64i (2013/06/18)
2049    o pkg/cheapaml:
2050      - take src files from MITgcm_contrib/verification_other/offline_cheapaml/code
2051        that enable the use of seaice (pkg/thsice thermo & pkg/seaice dynamics)
2052        with pkg/cheapaml.
2053    o utils/python: add subpackage for cubed sphere function, first example is
2054        simple cs.pcol to plot 2D fields on a map
2055    o pkg/streamice:
2056      - This is a new package in MITgcm, which solves dynamic equations for ice
2057         sheets and ice streams
2058      - At the moment it is independent of atmosphere/ocean dynamics, or any
2059        other physical packages in MITgcm, even ShelfIce (although it is anticipat-
2060        ed that this will change)
2061      - There is a new verification exercise that tests it, halfpipe_streamice,
2062        evolves a 40x80 km ice stream/ice shelf (at coarse resolution) in a
2063        rectangular embayment
2064      - halfpipe_streamice is forward-only for now, will have TAF test soon
2065      - for questions, email dgoldber@mit.edu
2066    o pkg/thsice:
2067      - fix filling of snow-precip diagnostic (SIsnwPrc) (left from the removing
2068        of snowPrc from common bloc, on May 2nd, thsice_step_fwd.F revision 1.40);
2069      - remove diagnostics 'SI_FrcFx' ( now identical to 'SI_Fract' with new
2070         call sequence: ice-Thermo(thsice),ice-Dyn,ice-Advect );
2071      - allow precip from pkg/cheapaml to make snow over seaice.
2072    o pkg/cfc:
2073      - move in separated header file (CFC_ATMOS.h) time-serie arrays of Atmos CFC
2074      - remove atmos CFC 2-D arrays from common bloc (now local variables)
2075      - change some hard-coded constant to run time parameter for reading and
2076        and interpolating atmospheric CFC ; keep same default as previously.
2077      - more flexible reading of Atmos CFC (number of records no longer hard-coded)
2078      - put arguments in standard order: myTime, myIter, myThid
2079      - use standard S/R GET_PERIODIC_INTERVAL for time interpolation of
2080        atmospheric CFC ; fix for the case myIter < PTRACERS_iter0.
2081      - fix calculation of surf tendencys for partial-cell and/or Non-Lin Free-Surf
2082      - new routine to print summary of CFC params and check for consistency.
2083    o pkg/seaice: add uice/vice to the parameter list of s/r seaice_advdiff,
2084      similar to thsice_advdiff.
2085      Note that for the B-grid case the routine parameters uc/vc are overwritten.
2086    o pkg/cfc:
2087      - change time interpolation for atmospheric CFC-11 (now same as for CFC-12);
2088        update output (CFC-11) of experiment cfc_example and tutorial_cfc_offline.
2089      - fix interpolation of atmphspheric CFC between Sorthern and Northern
2090        hemisphere value.
2091    o pkg/seaice:
2092      - allow to use seaice dynamics without pkg/exf (e.g., using pkg/cheapaml)
2093    o pkg/seaice: add Adams-Bashforth2 time discretization for ice dynamics;
2094                  so far only for JFNK-solver, turn on with SEAICEuseAB2 = .TRUE.
2095      - requires an additional time level that is stored in the pickup
2096      - you can start with AB2 from a pickup without this time level with
2097        pickupStrictlyMatch = .false.
2098    
2099    checkpoint64h (2013/05/26)
2100    o pkg/cheapaml:
2101      - replace one ()**.5 with SQRT + use temp var "cdu = tau/Du" (coare3_flux);
2102        affect machine truncation (but exp cheapAML_box still pass with 13 digits).
2103      - consistent treatment of uWind,vWind location: assume everywhere in
2104        pkg/cheapaml that they are on C-grid (@ uVel,vVel location)
2105        (Note: was already the case for Tair,Qair advection);
2106        add option (INCONSISTENT_WIND_LOCATION) to recover old results.
2107      - compute diabatic forcing only in the interior (excluding overlap regions)
2108      - fill in array "Qsw" (for short-wave heating);
2109      - add diagnostic for precip ; fill-in diagnostics for cheapAML state vars
2110        before any update (consistent with MITgcm state var diagnostics);
2111      - cheapaml_fields_load.F & cheapaml_init_varia.F : only fill outer edges if
2112        non periodic ; + adjusted for uWind,vWind (C-grid).
2113    o pkg/seaice:
2114      - remove dependence of pkg/seaice versus pkg/exf (file: pkg/pkg_depend) and
2115        add explicitly pkg/exf in experiments that currently use pkg/seaice.
2116      - allows to compile pkg/seaice without pkg/exf.
2117    o tools/OAD_support:
2118      - use a local copy (ourRWCPinBd) to ensure index ourRWCP stays within bounds
2119        of array "ourStepOf" in function rvNextAction (revolve.F90).
2120    o pkg/aim_compon_interf renamed to pkg/atm_compon_interf
2121      - change pkg name (to be used with other atmospheric physics pkg)
2122        but by-pass CVS when making the new pkg so that we keep the CVS history.
2123    o pkg/offline:
2124      - call OFFLINE_FIELDS_LOAD from pkg/offline/offline_init_varia.F
2125        (previously called from pkg/dic_surfforcing_init.F)
2126    o model/src:
2127      - re-order sequence of calls within packages_init_variables.F, using
2128        standard order, except for:
2129         DIAGNOSTICS_INIT_VARIA and OFFLINE_INIT_VARIA (called @ the top),
2130         CTRL_MAP_INI and OBCS_INIT_VARIABLES (called @ the bottom)
2131    o new pkg: atm_phys
2132      - add entry point and source code (previously in contrib
2133          verification_other/atm_gray/code_gray/) for new pkg "atm_phys"
2134        (atmospheric physics pkg from P. O'Gorman and T. Schneider, JCl, 2008).
2135      - re-order sequence of calls within packages_readparms.F,
2136         packages_init_fixed.F and packages_write_pickup.F
2137        (but skip packages_init_variables.F because of TAF issues).
2138      - update contrib/*/atm_gray/ experiment.
2139    o pkg/seaice (ITD code):
2140      - simplify and fix the writing of pickup-files for ITD case
2141    o pkg/seaice (ITD code):
2142      - introduce floe size dependent lateral melt for ITD case;
2143      - cleaning (avoid division by zero, change to f77 syntax, remove tabs)
2144      - update seaice_itd experiment main output.
2145    o pkg/thsice:
2146      - remove snowPrc from common block THSICE_FLUX, in THSICE_VARS.h and
2147        declared it locally (without bi,bj) in thsice_main.F & aim_do_physics.F;
2148        changed accordingly pkg/atm2d.
2149    
2150    checkpoint64g (2013/05/01)
2151    o pkg/exf ALLOW_RUNOFTEMP
2152      - if defined,  river and glacier runoff temperature can be read-in from
2153        runoftempfile; runoftempfile needs to have same format as runofffile
2154    o pkg/thsice (& pkg/bulk_force):
2155      - In case Energy-Reference-Level (ERL) is used (temp_EvPrRn=0), account
2156        for energy content of Precip + RunOff & Evap (like with pkg/exf).
2157      - change computation domain to always be the interior (without overlap).
2158      - fix bug (wrong overlap) when using EXF and stressReduction > 0.
2159    o verification/tutorial_global_oce_biogeo:
2160      - add preliminary OpenAD setup (still has problems)
2161    o pkg/seaice:
2162      - turn some parameters for choosing the convergence criterion of
2163        the inexact Newton method (JFNK) into runtime parameters for convenience
2164      - clean up seaice_calc_viscosities.F: remove/retire two options for
2165        SEAICetaZmethod (1,2), introduce area weighting for method 3; this changes
2166        the results of lab_sea/input because a division has been replaced by
2167        a multiplication with the reciprocal (sumNorm)
2168      - modify offline_exf_seaice/input.dyn_jfnk/data.seaice to improve
2169        convergence of solver (changes results, of course), and to test some
2170        new features
2171    o model/src:
2172      - remove unused (since Aug 2006) S/R SET_WRITE_GLOBAL_PICKUP and its call.
2173      - remove unused forcing field "dQdT" and associated parameter "dQdTFile".
2174      - move forcing adjustment (balancing surface forcing) in specific S/R
2175        where might also be applied exchanges (if needed) to forcing arrays.
2176    o pkg/shelfice:
2177      - allow to specify the Ice-Shelf mass per unit area (instead of
2178        shelficeLoadAnomaly) and do the conversion from one to the other
2179      - move loading from file of shelficeLoadAnomaly from SHELFICE_INIT_VARIA
2180        to SHELFICE_INIT_FIXED: (a) avoid some TAF recompution issues and
2181        (b) will be loaded in time (before calling INI_PRESSURE) in case it is
2182        needed in phi0surf for initial pressure calculation when useDynP_inEos_Zc
2183      - update isomip experiment forward output (get machine truncation error
2184        from conversion shelficeLoadAnomaly -> shelficeMass -> shelficeLoadAnomaly)
2185    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
2186      revise data.seaice in input.thermo and input_ad and update results accordingly
2187        HO = 0.2, SEAICE_areaLossFormula = 2,
2188        SEAICE_growMeltByConv = .TRUE.,
2189        SEAICE_doOpenWaterMelt = .TRUE.,
2190      Improve consistency with input.thsice and fix the spurious 500m ice corners
2191    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15:
2192      - set Energy Reference Level to liq. water @ 0 degC: temp_EvPrRn=0.,
2193        in icedyn (thsice+seaice-dyn) test and update output.
2194    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
2195      - adjust list of tested variables (with testreport) and update
2196        standard test output with better slection of monitored fields.
2197    o pkg/cd_code:
2198      - swtich off Adams-Bashforth on the 1rst iteration. Update output of
2199        experiment lab_sea.hb87
2200    o tools/genmake2:
2201      - change default makedepend from the system default to tools/xmakedepend:
2202        When no makedepend is specified, select tools/xmakedepend it the test pass,
2203        otherwise select the system default (if exist and pass the test) or
2204        try to build cyrus-makedepend ; stop if none of the 3 works.
2205    o pkg/exf & pkg/thsice:
2206      - In case Energy-Reference-Level (ERL) is used (temp_EvPrRn=0), account
2207        for energy content of Precip + RunOff & Evap. Assumes:
2208       1) Rain has same temp as Air.
2209       2) Snow has no heat capacity (consistent with seaice & thsice pkgs)
2210       3) Run-Off comes at the temp of surface water (with same Cp)
2211       4) Evap over ocean is released to the Atmos @ surf-temp (=SST); should be
2212        put directly into Latent Heat flux & should use water-vapor heat capacity.
2213       5) Evap over snow/seaice (pkg/thsice) assumes constant Lf+Lv (consistent
2214        with snow having no Cp) => water vapor is released to Atmos @ 0^oC (=ERL).
2215    o pkg/seaice: simplify the use of CPP flags in JFNK-related files
2216        (compile when SEAICE_ALLOW_JFNK is defined)
2217    o pkg/thsice:
2218      - fix oceanic flux diagnostics & timeave (left from new sequence of calls
2219        implementation): move THSICE_AVE call after the advection (called directly
2220        from thsice_do_advect.F).
2221    o verification/global_ocean.90x40x15 and OpenAD:
2222      New experiment for OpenAD is identical to the one in input_ad except that
2223        multiDimAdvection=.FALSE.,
2224      There is still an issue with this.
2225    o pkg/thsice:
2226      - account for ice velocity (ocean relative velocity) in turbulent heat flux
2227        at the base of the ice; update output of global_ocean.cs32x15 (icedyn)
2228        and offline_exf_seaice (main test).
2229    
2230    checkpoint64f (2013/03/31)
2231    o verification/OpenAD:
2232      - new (smaller, without OAD_DEBUG) output_oadm.txt generated using gfortran.
2233    o verification/isomip, pkg/shelfice and OpenAD:
2234      - add OpenAD setup to this exp and make shelfice package work with OpenAD
2235    o verification/tutorial_global_oce_biogeo:
2236      - update AD and TLM output after turning off ALLOW_FE (in DIC_OPTIONS.h)
2237    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
2238      - replace adjoint experiment (now similar to fwd input.thermo/ setup).
2239    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens, pkg/ptracers and OpenAD:
2240      - add OpenAD setup to this exp and make ptracers package work with OpenAD
2241    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp.F:
2242       mask the asymmetric contribution of the ice-ocean stress (when
2243       the turningAngle is non-zero) over open water to avoid stripes
2244       in the EVP-solutions after many EVP-substeps. This does not change
2245       the verification experiment (because turningAngle=0 in that experiment),
2246       but will affect other EVP solutions with turningAngle.ne.0
2247    o verification, AD & TLM output:
2248      - new TAF version 2.3.10 (previously 2.3.8) add more parenthesis in multiple
2249        additions and multiplications which affect results at machine truncation
2250        level. Update few AD output (1D_ocean_ice_column, bottom_ctrl_5x5,
2251        lab_sea.noseaicedyn & offline_exf_seaice) and TLM output
2252        (1D_ocean_ice_column & tutorial_tracer_adjsens.som81) which had only 12
2253        digits of matching.
2254    o pkg/seaice:
2255       modify lsr-algorithm so that it vectorizes AND converges by using a
2256       "zebra" method: split vector loop into two with step size 2; this
2257       solves a general convergence problem for the JFNK solver on a vector
2258       computer. It has the potential to even improve convergence for
2259       non-vector machines, but it does change the results so it is turned
2260       off by default. To turn on define CPP-flags SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR and
2261       SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h
2262    
2263    checkpoint64e (2013/03/05)
2264    o pkg/ecco and several verification experiments:
2265       Remove special versions of the_model_main.F, the_main_loop.F, forward_step.F
2266       from ecco package, and revert to unified routine in model/src/
2267       Adjust verification experiments accordingly, especially gloal_oce_llc90
2268       Should conclude long-standing work by Gael to reconsile the_main_loop with
2269       ECCO and will enable OpenAD's revolve loop in ECCO setup.
2270    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
2271      - implement compressible flow method for multi-dim advection (similar to
2272        gad_som_advect.F); add new option "GAD_MULTIDIM_COMPRESSIBLE" (since
2273        TAF generates many recomputations) to use it; no yet coded with implicit
2274        vertical advection.
2275      - change experiment advect_cs (new output) and advect_xy (same output)
2276        to test compressible flow multi-dim advection.
2277    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
2278      - fix SOM advection for unusual cases (linear Free-Surf in r*, other
2279        cases where linear Free-Surf is not @ k=1, e.g., useShelfIce)
2280    o pkg/seaice:
2281      - fix bug in the no-slip implementation in seaice_calc_strainrates.F, this
2282        bug affects two verification experiments (lab_sea and lab_sea.hb87),
2283        recover old (wrong) results by setting noSlipFac = 2. in
2284        seaice_calc_strainrates.F;
2285      - add another averaging method for etaZ (etaZmethod=3), a mix of 2 and 0
2286      - add runtime parameter SEAICE_JFNKepsilon for that finite difference
2287        gradient in the Jacobian times vector operation (s/r seaice_jacvec)
2288      - fix line search in seaice_jfnk.F (s/r seaice_jfnk_update)
2289    o pkg/seaice: reorganize seaice_lsr.F to be able to reuse more code:
2290      - new subroutines seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
2291      - introduce loop bounds i/jmin/max to be able to use a restricted
2292        additive Schwarz method, but not used for now.
2293      - rename SEAICE_CALC_LSR_COEFFS into SEAICE_LSR_CALC_COEFFS
2294      - use new subroutines seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v in s/r seaice_preconditioner
2295    o OpenAD support
2296       Reorganize S/R call for overall time-stepping loop to facilitate
2297       OpenAD revolve loop replacement
2298       (new S/R main_do_loop.F)
2299    o model/src:
2300      - add 3-D array 3rd dimension to argument list of S/R ADAMS_BASHFORTH2/3;
2301      - pkg/cheapaml: remove local S/R ADAMS2d and use instead standard S/R
2302        ADAMS_BASHFORTH2.
2303    o pkg/cheapaml:
2304      - add new parameter (default=F, same as before) to disable full domain
2305        (including land) periodicity in X & Y dir.
2306      - new S/R CHEAPAML_COPY_EDGES to copy relaxation field into edges of
2307        prognostics field ; merge the 2 S/R cycle_2d_tracer and timestep_2d_tracer
2308        into single S/R CHEAPAML_TIMESTEP.
2309    
2310    checkpoint64d (2013/02/17)
2311    o pkg/monitor (angular momentum):
2312      - do not add Eta contribution to the total AM if using rigid-lid;
2313      - correct for Adams-Bashforth in zonal-wind part (instead of in AM_eta).
2314      - horizontal discretisation: compute Zonal wind contribution separately for
2315        each component (instead of from cell centered averaged) and use the 4
2316        grid-cell corner averaged value of Omega*(R*cos_Phi)^2 in AM_eta part.
2317      - Check that AM is conserved with linear dynamics (momAdvection=F and linear
2318        FreeSurf) if using vectorInvariant momentum.
2319    o model/src (horizontal grid):
2320      - move initialisation of all horizontal grid arrays to null value
2321        from specific horizontal grid S/R to main S/R INI_GRID;
2322      - add 2 new arrays to project model C-grid velocity on to zonal direction
2323        (similar to AngleCosC & -AngleSinC but at U and V point location) and
2324        compute them in S/R CALC_GRID_ANGLES.
2325    o pkg/seaice: replace a hard coded parameter by a runtime parameter
2326        SEAICE_JFNK_tolIter
2327    o pkg/seaice: introduce a restricted additive Schwarz (RAS) method in
2328        preconditioner for JFNK (run LSR into the overlaps as far as possible,
2329        i.e OLx/y-2, but overwrite the solution in the overlaps)
2330      - extend loop range in seaice_calc_viscosity
2331      - add new parameters SEAICE_OLx/y (default = OLx/y-2)
2332      - add flexible loop ranges to seaice_preconditioner, seaice_calc_lsr_coeffs
2333      - slightly modify loops in tridiagonal solver lsr-preconditioner
2334      - by default remove the extra exchange in seaice_preconditioner with a
2335        replacement of an undocumented CPP flag by SEAICE_PRECOND_EXTRA_EXCHANGE
2336      - modify offline_exf_seaice so that old results without RAS are reproduced
2337        for output.dyn_jfnk.txt
2338      in seaice_fgmres.F (unrelated to RAS)
2339      - add a cpp-flag option for a re-ordered mapping (potentially more
2340        efficient), but because this changes the results, turn it off by
2341        default
2342      - replace the save statement by local common blocks
2343    o utils/matlab:
2344      - fix tile-offset in rdmnc.m when output was produced using EXCH2.
2345      - update cs_grid/bk_line scripts to use load_grid.m (in utils/matlab)
2346        instead of local script "load_cs.m".
2347    o pkg/seaice:
2348      - fix a serious bug in seaice_fgmres.F, s/r seaice_scalprod, connected
2349        to the scalarProductMetric and the unrolling. By chance this does not
2350        change the verification experiment, because of the particular domain
2351        decomposition
2352    o pkg/diagnostics:
2353      - change default missing_value from UNSET_RL to -999.
2354    o pkg/layers: improve vectorization of layers_fluxcalc.F
2355      - step 1: split loops, make TatU/V 2D arrays. This alone reduces the cpu
2356        time spent in this routine by more than a factor of 3 on an NEC-SX8
2357      - step 2: replace search algorithm by a bisection algorithm found in
2358        Press et al. Numerical Recipes in Fortran. This algorithm can be
2359        vectorized and finds the correct bin in approx. log2(Nlayers) steps.
2360        For now, use this algorithm only for TARGET_NEC_SX defined.
2361      - moved the search algorithm into a separate subroutine, that is kept
2362        within the same file for automatic inlining.
2363      - modified catching potential errors
2364    o pkg/ecco:
2365      - add compile switches ALLOW_SHALLOW_ALTIMETRY and ALLOW_HIGHLAT_ALTIMETRY.
2366    o model/src, pkg/autodiff, pkg/ctrl, pkg/grdchk :
2367      - modifications for ALLOW_GENTIM2D_CONTROL
2368      -- forward_step.F, the_main_loop.F : pass options and arrays for adjoint tapes.
2369      -- load_fields_driver.F : add call to CTRL_MAP_GENTIM2D( myTime, myIter, myThid )
2370      -- add xx_gentim2d0/1 in ctrl_ad_check_lev1_dir.h checkpoint_lev1_directives.h etc
2371      -- use ctrl_swapffields.F (new) instead of exf_SwapFFields.F in ctrl_get_gen.F
2372    o model/src:
2373      - account for moist thermodynamics in (dry) potential temperature equation;
2374        update results of experiments: aim.5l_cs (x2), fizhi-cs (std + aqualev)
2375        and cpl_aim+ocn.
2376      - also switch to standard compiler (gfortran, was using ifort previously)
2377        for fizhi-cs experiments reference output.
2378    o pkg/ctrl:
2379      - 1st step toward generic time-varying control variable (2D) via CPP option
2380        ALLOW_GENTIM2D_CONTROL
2381      - note new namelist ctrl_nml_genarr in data.ctrl
2382    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15:
2383      - switch off OLD_THSICE_CALL_SEQUENCE (both forward and AD code) to use new
2384        thsice calling sequence and update "output.icedyn.txt" output file.
2385    o pkg/ptracers:
2386      - from Ryan A.: code to allow to restart a tracer at regular time interval
2387        specifying a reset frequency and a reset-phase (for each tracers).
2388    o pkg/thsice:
2389      - implement new sequence of calls for thsice+seaice:
2390          previously:   ice-Dyn,ice-Advect,ice-Thermo(thsice)
2391          new sequence: ice-Thermo(thsice),ice-Dyn,ice-Advect
2392      - allows (with temporary CPP option "#define OLD_THSICE_CALL_SEQUENCE"
2393        in CPP_OPTIONS.h) to recover old sequence;
2394      - update diagnostics for Intermediate State thsice diagnostics: now filled
2395        just before advection (instead of just after advection in old sequence);
2396      - update output of experiment offline_exf_seaice (standard test);
2397      - in global_ocean.cs32x15 exp., postpone output.icedyn.txt update
2398        by setting #define OLD_THSICE_CALL_SEQUENCE in CPP_OPTIONS.h
2399    o pkg/aim_v23:
2400      - use tiled array for aim_CO2 and surface wind speed for export to coupler;
2401      - use standard pkg/mdsio routines to read & write CO2 pickup file;
2402      - in-line S/R AIM_AIM2DYN_EXCHANGES in aim_do_physics.F;
2403      - Implement new sequence of calls for seaice advection (with thsice and
2404        seaice diffusion): do ice advection after ice-Thermodynamic (previously
2405        was done before); change aim_do_physics.F (split the bi,bj loops block);
2406      - use same CPP option (OLD_THSICE_CALL_SEQUENCE) to recover old sequence;
2407    o pkg/thsice:
2408      - add a missing EXCH of sIceLoad in thsice_main.F (ocean set-up) for the case
2409        where just seaice diffusion is used without seaice-dynamics.
2410    
2411    checkpoint64c (2013/01/18)
2412    o pkg/seaice:
2413      - add a parameter JFNKres_tFac that can replace JFNKres_t
2414        (= JFNKres_tFac*JFNKresidual before JFNK solver)
2415      - add a line search option to the JFNK solver
2416      - move update of u/vIce and computation of initial residual into a separate
2417        routine (same file); makes the code a little easier to read (?)
2418      - the line search requires computation of the residual and for some reason
2419        I cannot do the update of u/vIce at the beginning of the Newton loop
2420        without changing the results, so we move computation of the new residual
2421        also to the end of the Newton loop, even without the line search
2422    o pkg/mdsio:
2423      - write missing value (corresponding to undefined array value) to meta files;
2424        skip this if missing value is one (UNSET_RL would be a better value for the
2425        case of undefined missing value but it's current the default missing-value);
2426        Also update mdsio_read_meta.F (reading timeInterval & missing-value).
2427    o pkg/exf & thsice:
2428      - for diagnostics purpose, fill-up and update Qsw array (+ fill the
2429        diagnostics) even when SHORTWAVE_HEATING is #undef;
2430    o verification/cfc_example:
2431      - turn on pkg/layers with pkg/diagnostics (to test pkg/layers and to
2432        illustrate how to use it).
2433    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
2434      in input: add SEAICErestoreUnderIce=.TRUE., and reduce size of forcing
2435        files to only one time-record.
2436      in input.thermo: narrow the 2 bands of low initial ice-concentration near
2437        N & S edges; switch on SEAICErestoreUnderIce=T; use pkg/diagnostics for
2438        snapshot output; same mcPheePiston value as in thsice with
2439        surf-current=0.2m/s.
2440      in input.thsice: similar set-up as in input.thermo (channel with same seaice
2441        initial conditions).
2442    o verification/cfc_example:
2443      - update file "data" with more standard choice (default rotationPeriod,
2444        exactConserv=T, reduce ivdc_kappa to 10, remove multiDimAdvection=F,
2445        set deltaTFreeSurf to deltaTtracer) and update the output.
2446    o pkg/layers:
2447      - fix bolus part so that it compiles with #undef GM_BOLUS_ADVEC;
2448      - ensure that "layers_bolus" is switched to False when useGMRedi=False.
2449    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
2450      - set all {field}period to zero for constant-in-time forcing (not tested
2451        anywhere else).
2452    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
2453      - dyn_lsr  : use pkg/seaice S/R (instead of pkg/thsice) to advect sea-ice;
2454      - dyn_jfnk : use pkg/thsice S/R (instead of pkg/seaice) to advect sea-ice.
2455    o model/src:
2456      - implement Finite-Volume method for (hydrostatic) presure gradient
2457        from S.-J. Lin (QJRMS 1997), for atmosphere using sigma-coordinate.
2458    o pkg/seaice: implement EVP* by Lemieux et al. (2012).
2459      - In order to be compatible with the default EVP code, this requires changing
2460        the EVP code around a little; and because any small change immediately
2461        breaks the lab_sea.hb87 verification experiment, the reference output is
2462        updated two times (each time the remaining aggrement was only 2 digits):
2463        - after replacing 1/dt by 1*recip_dt with a precomputed recip_dt
2464        - after replacing 1/(1+0.5*dt/tau) by a/(a+1), with a=2*tau/dt
2465        The adjoint test lab_sea.evp also needed to be updated.
2466      - Turn on EVP* by setting SEAICE_deltaTevp as before, and setting
2467        SEAICEuseEVPstar=.true.; for EVP* SEAICE_deltaTevp does not need to be
2468        a factor of SEAICE_deltaTdyn, and you can set the number of EVP steps
2469        explicitly with SEAICEnEVPstarSteps (thereby overriding the default of
2470        INT(SEAICE_deltaTdyn/SEAICE_deltaTevp)). Controlling EVP* is deliberately
2471        kept obscure, because I need to test it a little more.
2472    o pkg/cheapaml:
2473      - fix few incorrect type (_RL/_RS) in subroutine calls.
2474    o pkg/seaice:
2475      - new S/R SEAICE_MAP_RS2VEC (similar to SEAICE_MAP2VEC) to map _RS arrays
2476        to _RL vector; this fixes JFNK code when compiling with "-use_r4" option.
2477    o model/src:
2478      - add a warning if using select_rStar=2 with nonlinFreeSurf <> 4;
2479        change (in input_ad*/data) select_rStar from 2 to 1 for AD verification
2480        experiments global_ocean.cs32x15 & tutorial_tracer_adjsens (+ update output)
2481    o pkg/cheapaml:
2482      - replace "273.1 _d 0" by celsius2K in pkg/cheapaml/cheapaml.F and
2483        update output of experiment cheapAML_box.
2484      - store in CHEAPAML.h coeffs ssq[0:2] for saturation specific humidity,
2485        and set them only in one place (cheapaml_readparms.F).
2486      - replace "273.16 _d 0" by celsius2K & replace "3.14159 _d 0" by constant "PI"
2487      - remove re-setting of main-model parameter "celsius2K" (in cheapaml_readparms)
2488        and re-setting of cheapAML params "lath" & "p0" (in cheapaml_init_varia).
2489    o model/src/the_main_loop.F:
2490      - fix revision 129 : need both ALLOW_ECCO and ALLOW_ECCO_EVOLUTION.
2491    o pkg/seaice:
2492      - remove legacy branch code.
2493      - retire SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY and SEAICE_CAP_HEFF accordingly.
2494    o verification/*/code*/SEAICE_OPTIONS.h:
2495      - remove documentation for retired CPP flags (SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY,
2496        SEAICE_CAP_HEFF).
2497    o pkg/cheapaml:
2498      - use standard routine (S/R GET_PERIODIC_INTERVAL) to decide when it is time
2499        to load new forcing fields.
2500      - add missing "_d 0" where it's needed; + some editing (improve indentation).
2501      - remove switch to "-r8" compiler option (no longer needed) in verification
2502        cheapAML_box, keep same output (small trucation error differences).
2503    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
2504      - add thermodynamics only test.
2505    o verification/cheapAML_box:
2506      - split the domain in 8 (2x4) tiles; add MPI and multi-threaded test;
2507        keep same output (same 14 digits for cg2d).
2508      - switch on "-r8" compiler option (some numerical values are missing
2509        the "_d 0") and update output (only 6 digits for cg2d were preserved).
2510    
2511    checkpoint64b (2012/12/24)
2512    o pkg/cheapaml:
2513      - remove un-used variables (Qnet,EmPmR) from pickup files.
2514      - store tendency of advected variables into cheapaml pickup file
2515        and fix the AB-2 restart.
2516    o verification/offline_exf_seaice and lab_sea adjoint:
2517      - switch to new code (#undef SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY).
2518      - switch to 4 time steps in offline, consistent with lab_sea.
2519      - match parameters from SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY branch in data.seaice.
2520      - update results after change of experiment seaice.
2521    o pkg/seaice:
2522      - remove option SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY; has been replaced with run-time
2523        parameter SEAICE_multDim. Issue a warning if SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY is
2524        still defined since SEAICE_multDim needs to be set to MULTDIM value (from
2525        SEAICE_SIZE.h) to recover previous #define SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY default.
2526    o model/src:
2527      - add run-time parameter to select CG2D solver minimum-residual solution
2528        (in case of a poor convergence).
2529    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F
2530      - move calculation of matrix coefficients into new
2531        S/R SEAICE_CALC_LSR_COEFFS; for now this routine remains in the same
2532        file; the main purpose of this change is to be able to reuse the code
2533        in S/R SEAICE_PRECONDITIONER
2534      - modify the computation of the residual so that the mass of sea-ice
2535        is not used twice; this simplifies the calculations, but since
2536        the residual is never used except when LSR_mixIniGuess.ge.4---and this is
2537        not tested in testreport---this does not affect the testreport results.
2538    o verification/seaice_obcs:
2539      - disable SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY; reset input files to match those of
2540        verification/lab_sea/input.salt_plume; changes results/output.txt*
2541    o model/src:
2542      - adapt quasi-hydrostatic formulation to work with p or p* coordinate.
2543    o pkg/seaice:
2544      - improve description of parameters in seaice_fgmres.F and start
2545        cleaning up the code
2546      - change name of SCALPROD to SEAICE_SCALPROD and modify meaning of
2547        second argument
2548      - add a metric based on grid cell area to SEAICE_SCALPROD; update
2549        results of offline_exf_seaice.dyn_jfnk
2550      - compute initial residual norm in seaice_jfnk based on SEAICE_SCALPROD
2551    o pkg/aim_v23:
2552      - fix an other bug in dissipation heating (grid-cell area was missing).
2553    o model/src + pkg/seaice:
2554      - add global (multi-tile) linear solver for pair of tri-diagonal system
2555        along X and Y lines, respectively for U and V component.
2556        Note: 1) MPI and cube-exchange not yet coded.
2557            2) probably not accurate for poorly conditioned / large size problem.
2558      - add option for SEAICE_LSR to use global (multi-tile) tri-diagonal solver;
2559        default: not compiled and not used.
2560    o pkg/seaice:
2561      - first attempt at a multi-threaded fgmres solver for the JFNK solver:
2562        introduce bi/bj loops and use global_sum_tile_rl instead of
2563        mpi_allreduce in seaice_fgmres.F
2564      - improve diagnostics output for fgmres solver (seaice_fgmres.F)
2565      - replace a few unnecessary goto statements by if-blocks  (seaice_fgmres.F)
2566      - add a verification experiment for JFNK in offline_exf_seaice
2567    o verification:
2568      - change (for now, only fwd test) offline_exf_seaice experiment:
2569        use a re-entrant channel with idealized coastline (trapezoidal shape)
2570        at southern boundary to explore seaice dynamics and thermodynamics
2571        with simple forcing. Main set-up has dynamics+thermo and SST relaxation;
2572        secondary test (input.thsice) use thermodynamics only with SST relaxation.
2573      - add seaice-dynamics only secondary test using LSR and pkg/thsice advection.
2574    o pkg/exf:
2575      - disable "sstExtrapol" when Nr=1
2576    o verification:
2577      - add new experiment "cheapAML_box" (simple 1 layer set-up from Bruno Deremble)
2578        to test pkg/cheapaml.
2579    o pkg/aim_v23 & pkg/shap_filt:
2580      - fix dissipation heating (erroneous gravity multiplication factor).
2581    o pkg/seaice:
2582      - remove unused field pressPre from jfnk solver
2583      - rename two subroutines in seaice_preconditioner.F
2584    o eesupp/src:
2585       - S/R MDSFINDUNIT avoids reserved unit numbers (scrUnit1, eeDataUnit ...)
2586    o pkg/seaice/seaice_preconditioner.F: fix preconditioner once again
2587       - remove wrong parts of the rhs and the lhs (were in there
2588         because I did not understand the concept of this preconditioner)
2589       - add an exchange between u- and v-sweep. This increases communication
2590         by a factor of two but improves the convergence of jfnk. Ideally,
2591         one would like the u- and v-sweep to be independent. So far within
2592         undocumented ifdefs
2593       - reorganize the extra computations for printing the residuals
2594    o tools/genmake2:
2595      - comment out the "mpif.h" include in NetCDF test programm (for MPI built)
2596        since it's not necessary (and was preventing to use MNC in some cases).
2597    
2598    checkpoint64a (2012/11/16)
2599    o pkg/autodiff:
2600      - improve pkg-internal logical parameter switch (inAd/inFwd mode) so that
2601        autodiff_readparms.F no longer depends on calling order (within
2602        packages_readparms.F) and no longer requires to include ${PKG}_PARMS.h):
2603        rename param turnFreeDriftInAdMode to SEAICEuseFREEDRIFTswitchInAd
2604        and change param SEAICEuseDYNAMICSinAdMode to SEAICEuseDYNAMICSswitchInAd.
2605    o pkg/obcs:
2606      - adding tidal velocity forcing capability to obcs
2607        for usage example, see verification/seaice_obcs/input.tides
2608    o pkg/seaice:
2609      - turn the LSR-relaxation parameters WFAU/V into runtime parameters
2610        SEAICE_LSRrelaxU/V
2611      - introduce runtime parameter SEAICEetaZmethod (=0 by default)
2612    o pkg/aim_v23:
2613      - implement heating from friction (bottom friction and stratospheric drag).
2614    o pkg/shap_filt:
2615      - fix diagnostic "SHAP_dKE" (was 2 time smaller); implement heating from
2616        dissipation but only for Shap_funct=2, active when addFrictionHeating=T.
2617    o model/src:
2618      - move AddMass common block from DYNVARS.h to FFIELDS.h; allow to read-in
2619        time-constant addMass field from file (addMassFile);
2620      - support for heating due to friction (and Kinetic Energy dissipation):
2621        add option, run-time switch and 3-D field array + support code ; each pkg
2622        or S/R can add heating contribution (if there is a sink of KE); the sum is
2623        accounted for as a Temperature tendency term (EXTERNAL_FORCING_T).
2624    o pkg/seaice:
2625      - complete merge of ITD code into seaice_growth.F
2626        from MITgcm_contrib/torge/itd/code/
2627        no verification so far, but Torge Martin tested
2628        "1-D test case and Beaufort set up;
2629        deliver okay results after 1 model year."
2630      - complete merge of SEAICE_SIZE.h into all relevant routines
2631      - move computation of eta at Z-points into calc_viscosities
2632        + introduce global field etaZ
2633        + add different methods for computing etaZ, for now the old
2634          method (simple averages of eta to Z-points) is hardwired
2635        + replace etaMeanZ by etaZ in seaice_lsr, seaice_calc_residual,
2636          seaice_preconditioner
2637      - simplify computations for SEAICE_ZETA_SMOOTHREG
2638      - seaice_preconditioner:
2639        + replace one remaining press by pressLoc (mistake)
2640        + adjust printing of residuals
2641      - improve I/O of diagnostics of JFNK in seaice_jfnk.F:
2642        + add (SEAICE.h) and rename some counters (initiliased in
2643          seaice_init_fixed.F)
2644        + add _BEGIN/END_MASTER (myThid)  around print statements
2645        + print total number of iterations and failures over SEAICE_monFreq
2646          interval to STDOUT
2647      - move control over output-messages by fgmres to seaice_jfnk to save
2648        some operations
2649      - move resetting initial guess for fgmres outside of seaice_fgmres_driver
2650        in order to make restarts with sol .ne. zero (fgmres with restarts)
2651        (seaice_jfnk.F, seaice_fgmres.F)
2652      - seaice_calc_l/rhs.F: replace maskW/S by maskInW/S; this fixes
2653        a serious convergence problem when open boundaries are involved
2654    o pkg/ggl90: fix computation of control volumes for the case of
2655      ALLOW_GGL90_HORIZDIFF (probably not used very often): move control volumes
2656      up half a grid cell from C-centered to W-centered (pointed out by C. Eden)
2657    o pkg/seaice: simplify seaice_evp by avoiding use of extra fields u/vIceC
2658    o pkg/autodiff
2659      - Add inAdMode switch for SEAICEuseDYNAMICS:
2660        SEAICEuseDYNAMICSinAdMode
2661        (extend logic in ADAUTODIFF_INADMODE_SET)
2662    o pkg/seaice
2663      - Step 1 of merging ice-thickness distribution (ITD) code from
2664        MITgcm_contrib/torge/itd/ (author: Torge Martin)
2665        The code implements concept laid out in Thorndike et al. (1975);
2666        code is enabled via CPP flag SEAICE_ITD
2667        nITD (in SEAICE_SIZE.h) defines number of ice thickness categories;
2668        code is not complete yet!!
2669      - SEAICE_SIZE.h now included in almost all seaice routines
2670    o verification (using seaice):
2671      - switch back seaice-dynamics (+ lower SOLV_MAX_ITERS) in ADM exp.
2672        global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice ; update results.
2673      - compile B-grid dynamics in FW test exp 1D_ocean_ice_column ;
2674      - compile C-grid dynamics with #define SEAICE_ALLOW_JFNK in FW test exp
2675        offline_exf_seaice (previously compiling B-grid).
2676    o pkg/exf:
2677      - fix some STOP conditions in exf_check.F (from Aug 28, modifs did not allow
2678        to specify neither just 1 comp of wind or wind-stress, nor no surface momentum
2679        forcing): just replace CPP option ALLOW_ATM_WIND with run-time param useAtmWind.
2680    o pkg/layers (adjust changes from Sept 19):
2681      - do snap-shot output and fill diagnostics from inside iLa loop (layers_calc.F)
2682        this allows to remove "layers_maxNum" dimension from all layers arrays.
2683    o pkg/layers (adjust changes from Sept 19):
2684      - remove ALLOW_LAYERS_OUTPUT ; fix snap-shot and time-ave output ;
2685      - snap-shot extended to all type of layers (not just the 1rst type);
2686      - remove layers variables when corresponding CPP option is undef.
2687    o pkg/layers:
2688      - rename pkg/layers variable and add new output (layer exist & un-weighted
2689        velocity in layer)
2690    o pkg/seaice:
2691      - simplify (?) ocean-drag coefficent computations by using
2692        the same routine in all three solvers (saves some code lines)
2693      - remove global fields DRAGA and DRAGS from C-grid code and
2694        declare them locally in lsr.F (the only place where they are
2695        still used)
2696      - update AD output of lab_sea.evp (very sensitive anyway).
2697    o pkg/seaice: add Jacobian-free Newton Krylov solver for ice dynamics
2698      (Lemieux et al. 2010, 2012). Turn on with the usual SEAICE_ALLOW_JFNK
2699      and SEAICEuseJFNK=.true. A few things to note:
2700      - involves a FGMRES, that is parallel but very inefficient,
2701        because of many scalar products (global sums) in the Gram-Schmidt
2702        orthogonalization method. Needs to be replaced. Original code
2703        from J.-F. Lemieux
2704      - preconditioner for FGMRES is a stripped down version of LSOR
2705      - SOLV_MAX_ITERS is now used for LSOR as a solver and as a
2706        preconditioner. For the preconditioner, the default is set to 10.
2707      - Jacobian times vector is computed with finite differences
2708      - marginally related to JFNK-solver: add a smooth regularization for
2709        zeta with tanh that will improve convergence (Lemieux and Tremblay,
2710        2009) for any implicit solver (not implemented for EVP because EVP
2711        does not need this regularization in the first place). Define
2712        SEAICE_ZETA_SMOOTHREG in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h to use.
2713    o eesupp/src:
2714      - check in genmake2 that intrinsic S/R flush is available.
2715      - add S/R to flush IO unit (if intrinsic S/R flush is available)
2716      - flush standard & error msg unit before MPI termination
2717      - if debugMode, flush IO unit after printing msg
2718    o pkg/ctrl:
2719      - ctrl_unpack.F, ALLOW_GENARR3D_CONTROL code: fix missing argument in call
2720        to ctrl_set_unpack_xyz.
2721    
2722    checkpoint64 (2012/10/09)
2723    o pkg/shelfice
2724      - in mom_fluxform.F, mom_vecinv.F:
2725        CALL SHELFICE_V_DRAG(bi,bj,k,vFld,KE,KappaRU,vF,myThid)
2726        Bug fix KappaRU -> KappaRV
2727        does not change verification/isomip but may change other setups
2728        (presumably constant KappaRU=KappaRV)
2729      - fix diagnostics SHIU/Vdrag (thanks to Tom Millgate)
2730    o pkg/obcs:
2731      - fixed some indexing bugs in obcs_seaice_sponge.F
2732      - added obcs relaxation subroutines for HSALT and HSNOW
2733      - changes verification/seaice_obcs/results/obcs_seaice_sponge.F
2734    o pkg/seaice:
2735      - add "multicategory" parameterization for snow in analogy to ice,
2736        default is off for now.
2737    o pkg/obcs:
2738      - added obcs_seaice_sponge.F for obcs relaxation of seaice variables;
2739        see verification/seaice_obcs/input.seaiceSponge for example application.
2740      - remove local commom bloc "OBCS_GLOBAL" in obcs_readparms.F and do all the OB
2741        index setting by master-thread. This fix multi-threads Pb in previous modifs.
2742    o pkg/layers :
2743      - add diagnostics to pkg/layers
2744      - move the meat of pkg/layers from layers_calc.F to layers_fluxcalc.F
2745        (from R.Tulloch). Layers_calc.F now calls layers_fluxcalc.F accordingly.
2746    o pkg/generic_advdiff/gad_implicit_r.F :
2747      - fix ADVr diagnostics in case of both implicit vertical advection and diffusion.
2748    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F:
2749      - fix SItflux diagnostics in virtual salt flux + balanceEmpmr case.
2750    o pkg/obcs:
2751      - change default setting of OBCS_UVICE_OLD from defined to undef;
2752      - use new parameter OB_indexNone for null index value (instead of hard-coded 0)
2753        in all pkg/obcs code and in other pkgs; remove k loop in obcs_check_depths.F;
2754      - pass OB_indexNone as (new) argument to S/R CTRL_MASK_SET_[X,Y]Z;
2755      - change OB null index value (OB_indexNone) to -99 ; this fix the problem
2756        with Southern & Western OB at a tile edge (at least in a simple set-up).
2757    o pkg/obcs:
2758      - change settings of OB index in case OB coincides with tile edge (shared by
2759        2 tiles), so that common OB location is registered by both tiles (instead of
2760        only 1). However, for Southern and Western OB, index value = 0 is not
2761        recognized as valid OB index (=default null value) and needs to be fixed.
2762      - modify accordingly OBCS_BALANCE_FLOW and OBCS_MONITOR (avoid double counting)
2763      - new parameter "OB_indexNone" for null index value (for now, still zero)
2764        to replace hard-coded null index value of zero.
2765    o pkg/exch2:
2766      - improve W2_USE_E2_SAFEMODE (faster) and W2_E2_DEBUG_ON:
2767        always check buffer-size (but outside the loop); move checking for valid
2768        index from W2_USE_E2_SAFEMODE to W2_E2_DEBUG_ON; in W2_E2_DEBUG_ON,
2769        print each tile and point connection only if |W2_printMsg|>= 2 and 3.
2770    o pkg/ctrl (pack & unpack):
2771      - in ctrl_pack.F & ctrl_unpack.F, use the same local file-name variable
2772        (locally defined) for different variables (+ remove the variable-specific
2773        file name in CTRL_GENARR.h). For now, only implemented for GENARR2/3D_CONTROL
2774        (to be extended to other local file names in ctrl.h).
2775    o pkg/flt:
2776      - add a FLT_Iter0 option (similar to PTRACERS_Iter0).
2777    o pkg/mdsio:
2778      - fix missing STOP in mdsio_readvec_loc.F (case ioUnit=0) when file is missing
2779    o tools/genmake2:
2780      - add similar dependences for target EXE_AD & EXE_FTL as we have for EXECUTABLE
2781        (added by Alistair in version 1.51 for building without make depend);
2782      - remove Header files list (H_SRC_FILES) from the dependence of targets
2783         ad_input_code.f & ftl_input_code.f (not clear why it was added in the first
2784        place in version 1.23): this save going through staf when unrelated header
2785        file has been modified.
2786       Note: for an intermediate target (e.g., ad_input_code.f or adtaf) without
2787        "make depend" step, still need to do "make links" before "make adtaf".
2788    o eesupp/src (+ few pkg src files) & genmake2:
2789      - finish to remove ALWAYS_USE_MPI in source code that TAF does not see;
2790      - no longer set ALWAYS_USE_MPI in Makefile (was done by genmake2).
2791      - improve genmake2 checking for ALLOW_${PKG} in CPP_OPTIONS.h files (distinguish
2792         upper/lower case ; account for space between "#" and undef/define)
2793    o pkg/flt (with exch2):
2794      - cleaning: fix so that it compiles; move remaining MPI calls out of flt_exch2.F;
2795      - simplify threads synchronisation; fix (many issues) multi-threaded with MPI.
2796    
2797    checkpoint63s (2012/09/05)
2798    o pkg/ecco:
2799      - remove #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL3D brackets.
2800      - add more relevant #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH ones.
2801      - sort out useAtmWind, useSMOOTH, ctrlSmoothCorrel2D.
2802    o pkg/ctrl:
2803      - CTRL_OPTIONS.h : document CPPs related to smoothing; ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL2D/3D,
2804        ALLOW_CTRL_SMOOTH, ALLOW_SMOOTH_CTRL2D, ALLOW_SMOOTH_CTRL3D.
2805      - ctrl.h : document run time params doInitXX, doMainPack, doMainUnpack, doPackDiag,
2806        doSinglePrecTapelev (audodiff param!), ctrlSmoothCorrel2D (new) and
2807        ctrlSmoothCorrel3D (new).
2808        The added ctrlSmoothCorrel2D/3D replace the old ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL2D/3D CPP.
2809      - ctrl_readparms.F : initialise ctrlSmoothCorrel2D/3D and read from namelist.
2810      - ctrl_init.F ctrl_pack.F ctrl_unpack.F : switch off ustress/vstress
2811        controls when useAtmWind, and vice versa.
2812      - ctrl_map_ini_ecco.F : UVEL0, VVEL0, edtaux, edtauy cannot be smoothed as tracers.
2813      - ctrl_get_gen.F : replace #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL2D with
2814          #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH, IF ctrlSmoothCorrel2D, IF useSMOOTH.
2815      - ctrl_map_ini_gen.F : replace #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL3D with
2816          #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH, IF ctrlSmoothCorrel3D, IF useSMOOTH.
2817      - ctrl_set_pack_xy[z].F, ctrl_set_unpack_xy[z].F:
2818        replace ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL2D/3D brackets with ctrlSmoothCorrel2D/3D.
2819    o pkg/smooth:
2820      - remove un-necessary includes.
2821      - remove ALLOW_SMOOTH*D and ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL*D brakets.
2822        Those CPP options were never defined, and not necessary.
2823    o model/src:
2824      - fix CPP brackets in ini_mixing.F (GM_background_K belongs to gmredi).
2825      - standard treatment of useSMOOTH.
2826    o pkg/autodiff:
2827      - add LOGICAL useGGL90inAdMode, useGGL90inFwdMode, useSALT_PLUMEinAdMode,
2828        useSALT_PLUMEInFwdMode allowing to switch off ggl90 and salt_plume adjoint.
2829    o pkg/exch2:
2830      - add "if usingMPI" where it was missing (in exch2_rx?_cube*.template)
2831        + start to remove ALWAYS_USE_MPI in source code that TAF does not see.
2832      - make new S/R W2_MAP_PROCS out of w2_eeboot.F to setup exch2 CommonFlag
2833        and tiles to process mapping.
2834      - re-arrange 3 header files (W2_EXCH2_PARAMS.h, _BUFFER.h & _TOPOLOGY.h)
2835        moving /EXCH2_FILLVAL_RX/ & /W2_EXCH2_COMMFLAG/ to W2_EXCH2_TOPOLOGY.h;
2836        rename "exch2_tProc" to "W2_tileProc" and move seting of e2FillValue_RX
2837        from w2_eeboot.F to w2_readparms.F.
2838    o eesupp/src:
2839      - set exchNeedsMemsync & exchUsesBarrier according to "usingMPI" (instead of
2840        ALWAYS_USE_MPI) + moved from ini_communication_patterns.F to eeset_parms.F;
2841        also move setting of exchCollectStatistics from exch_init.F to eeset_parms.F
2842      - in eedie.F and all_proc_die.F, always call MPI_FINALIZE when ALLOW_USE_MPI
2843        is defined (remove condition on usingMPI) to match cases where MPI_INIT
2844        has been called.
2845      - fix bug I put in previous modif of exch_sm_3d_rx.template (not much used);
2846      - change default (non-MPI) value of myPid (from 1 to 0) to match MPI settings
2847        (so that on 1 proc, get same myPid independently of usingMPI)
2848      - add a stop if multi-procs but usingMPI=F ; stop also if usingMPI=T and
2849        useCubedSphereExchange with EXCH-1 (safer).
2850      - add "if usingMPI" where it was missing (+ start to remove ALWAYS_USE_MPI).
2851    o pkg/ggl90:
2852      - fix bug in filling corner mask array "mskCor" (FILL_CS_CORNER_TR_RL call)
2853        used in ALLOW_GGL90_SMOOTH code.
2854    o pkg/flt:
2855      - fix typo in FLT_WITHOUT_Y_PERIODICITY (the effect was to ignore stopping
2856        floats at the Southern end of the domain).
2857    o eesupp/inc:
2858      - add a list of CPP-options which can be set by Makefile (DEF_IN_MAKEFILE.h);
2859        but not used (and not to be used) anywhere, just for documentation.
2860    o pkg/autodiff, exf, ptracers & seaice (AD & TL output):
2861      - comment out the very nasty "writeBinaryPrec = writeStatePrec" line, since:
2862        a) can damage previously written records in any other multi-record files.
2863        b) if needed, can easily do it cleanly, by calling S/R WRITE_REC_3D_RL/S.
2864    o tools/genmake2:
2865      - define variable MAKE within Makefile and use it in place of 'make';
2866      - update AD_CONFIG.h (if needed) before building any of the executable
2867        (forward, adjoint or tangent-lin); this involves a 2nd invocation of make;
2868        and add the usual #ifndef/#define AD_CONFIG_H in AD_CONFIG.h;
2869      - always print usual warning comment 'this file is automatically generated'
2870        from script convert_cpp_cmd2defines (+ remove this warning from genmake2).
2871    o pkg/cheapaml:
2872      - updated to correspond to the code used in accepted paper (Nico Wienders).
2873    o pkg/exf:
2874        added run time switch useAtmWind to replace ALLOW_ATM_WIND cpp switch.
2875        ALLOW_ATM_WIND now just sets the useAtmWind default (see exf_readparms.F)
2876        and force defines ALLOW_BULKFORMULAE (EXF_OPTIONS.h).
2877    o pkg/exf, autodiff, ctrl, ecco and seaice:
2878        remove ALLOW_ATM_WIND brackets, or replace them with useAtmWind ones.
2879    o pkg/ctrl, ecco:
2880        allow to compile both ALLOW_U/VSTRESS_CONTROL and ALLOW_U/VWIND_CONTROL.
2881        Depending on useAtmWind, one is inactive, and the other is active (see
2882        exf_getffields.F/exf_getsurfacefluxes.F).
2883    o tools/genmake2:
2884      - improve error msg when failing in 2nd test of check_for_broken_Ff
2885      - fix option '-makefile' short-name (-mf according to genmake2 -help)
2886      - source local config file "genmake_local" just after processing the genmake2
2887        command arguments (previously done before processing arg).
2888    o pkg/grdchk:
2889      - add a call to TURNOFF_MODEL_IO for Tangent-Linear run (in this case, call
2890        to this routine from cost_final has been dropped in g_cost_final)
2891      - improve printed information (more explicit msg, no longer using "print *,"
2892         fix fcpertminus printed value).
2893    o model/src:
2894      - move call to COST_INIT_VARIA out of packages_init_variables.F directly
2895        into initialise_varia.F (just after calling PACKAGES_INIT_VARIABLES):
2896        this prevents getting cost-funct reset in adinitialise_varia recomputations.
2897    o pkg/dic:
2898      - move initialisation of "freefe" array from from dic_biotic_forcing.F to
2899        fe_chem.F: this prevents TAF from dropping this initialisation in TLM code.
2900    o pkg/grdchk:
2901      - grdchk_main.F : added CALL GLOBAL_SUM_INT( ierr , myThid )
2902      - grdchk_getadxx.F etc. : omit I/O if ierr.EQ.0
2903    o pkg/autodiff/ctrl/grdchk :
2904      - attempt to sort out what works and what does not,
2905        with regard to I/O, and to warn/stop accordingly.
2906    o pkg/grdchk:
2907      - attempt to fix grdchk in the case of useSingleCpuIO.
2908      - "if ( myProcId .EQ. grdchkwhichproc .AND. ierr .EQ. 0 )"
2909       statements were moved from grdchk_main.F and into
2910       grdchk_getadxx.F grdchk_getxx.F grdchk_setxx.F.
2911      - a global sum is applied to record numbers icvrec/layer
2912       out of grdchk_loc so that they be passed to I/O routines.
2913    o pkg/smooth:
2914      - fix recomputation that appeared with nlfs : use smooth_recip_hFacC,
2915        smooth_hFacW, smooth_hFacS (copied at init_fixed) in 3d case.
2916    o verification/testreport:
2917      - add option '-tlm' for Tangent-Linear test (-adm,-oad,-tlm are all exclusive);
2918      - can also use compressed (gzip) reference output file;
2919      - change format (in pkg/grdchk) of TLM output (+ add forward gradient)
2920        to be easier to collect by testreport.
2921      - update existing TLM output (half out-of-date by more than 3 yrs).
2922      - report NETCDF & LAPACK settings (from genmake2) in output dir.
2923      - report run-time in each individual summary (previously only for AD test);
2924        for TLM test, add also TAF version.
2925      - add daily TLM test on (old) aces cluster + weekly test on baudelaire.
2926    
2927    checkpoint63r (2012/08/15)
2928    o tools/genmake2:
2929      - fix Makefile for target ftlall (+ update files to clean after make ftlall)
2930    o pkg/ecco/ecco_cost_final.F :
2931      - fix fc print statements (to stdout and costfunction0000) so
2932        that the printed value is always after the global sum.
2933    o pkg/seaice/seaice_dynsolver.F :
2934      - fix ice strength assymptote at SEAICE_area_max<1
2935        (no change for the standard case of SEAICE_area_max=1)
2936    o some cleaning:
2937      - pkg source files: ensure that all *.F files from each pkg included the
2938        corresponding ${PKG}_OPTIONS.h file (except stand-alone src file which
2939        only includes CPP_EEOPTIONS.h); fix S/R CTRL_SMOOTH ; update AD experiment
2940        code_ad/*.F src files; add new option-file in pkg/admtlm + corresponding
2941        includes;
2942      - model/src: add PACKAGES_CONFIG.h wherever ALLOW_AUTODIFF[_TAMC] is used.
2943      - ALLOW_DIFFKR_CONTROL: add a stop in S/R CTRL_CHECK in case ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR
2944        is undef; also define /DYNVARS_DIFFKR/ common block in DYNVARS.h when
2945        ALLOW_DIFFKR_CONTROL is defined, to allow to compile and reach this stop.
2946      - update option-file CPP_OPTIONS.h of all AD experiments:
2947        * no longer include PACKAGES_CONFIG.h ;
2948        * includes ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h if PACKAGES_CONFIG.h has been included ;
2949        * def/undef ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR independently of ALLOW_DIFFKR_CONTROL (before
2950          including ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h).
2951    o pkg/cost, pkg/ctrl, pkg/ecco option-file:
2952      - clean-up and split content of old pkg/ecco/ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h file into
2953        separated pkg option-file (done according to old doc from ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h,
2954        not necessary accurate).
2955      - add a template for option-file ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h, mostly empty, in
2956        pkg/autodiff, i.e., the 1rst pkg to compile for adjoint built, with lines to
2957        deliberately break compilation (a remainder that it needs to be customized)
2958      - in pkg/ecco, includes ECCO_OPTIONS.h instead of COST_OPTIONS.h
2959      - rename COST_CPPOPTIONS.h to COST_OPTIONS.h
2960      - rename CTRL_CPPOPTIONS.h to CTRL_OPTIONS.h
2961    o tools/genamke2:
2962      - check for lapack.
2963    o pkg/cost and pkg/ecco : attempt to sort out some of the limiting intricacies.
2964      - pkg/cost.cost_final.F : allow for use of pkg/ecco and pkg/cost cost functions
2965        jointly. The exclusive ifdefs were removed, to add costs terms (when defined)
2966        from both packages.
2967      - the fc global sum in pkg/ecco/ecco_cost_final.F was removed accordingly.
2968      - for objf_atl we use either the pkg/ecco or the pkg/cost term depending on CPPs.
2969      - pkg/ecco and model/src : add CPP brackets around pkg/cost and pkg/ctrl includes
2970        of "CTRL_SIZE.h" "ctrl.h" "ctrl_dummy.h" "optim.h" / "cost.h" accordingly.
2971    o pkg/cost : add comments to explain special and/or untested setups.
2972    o pkg/exf:
2973      - use EXF_OPTIONS.h to set pkg/exf options except if done in ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h
2974        (previously, ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC was controling this switch).
2975    o verification/*/code_ad:
2976      mimimal cleaning of AD experiments ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h option-file:
2977      - reccord when this file is included (define ECCO_CPPOPTIONS_H)
2978      - remove the most obvious obsolete features (e.g., #define ALLOW_COST not
2979        allowed since Oct 2003 in any option-file except in PACKAGES_CONFIG.h)
2980    o pkg/seaice :
2981      - added possibility to change ice strength/PRESS0 relationship to
2982        HEFF, according to the following run time parameters
2983        SEAICEpresPow0 :: HEFF exponent for ice strength below SEAICEpresH0 (integer, >0)
2984        SEAICEpresPow1 :: HEFF exponent for ice strength above SEAICEpresH0 (integer, >0)
2985        SEAICEpresH0   :: HEFF threshold for ice strength            (m)
2986    o pkg/ggl90 :
2987      - added run time flag mxlSurfFlag to include the code that ensure
2988        mixing between first and second level (previously included as a comment)
2989    o verification/1D_ocean_ice_column/input_ad/data.autodiff :
2990      - add test of newly added dumpAdByRec=T option where
2991        we write all records to one file per variable.
2992    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/code_ad/CPP_OPTIONS.h :
2993      - switch to #define ALLOW_BALANCE_RELAX and ALLOW_BALANCE_FLUXES
2994        to check that this code is ok with taf and compiles in adjoint.
2995    o pkg/autodiff :
2996      - added run time param dumpAdByRec : ad dump format switch.
2997        If true then write all records to one file per variable.
2998        Else write one file per record (remains the default).
2999      - revise seaice_ad_dump.F and exf_adjoint_snapshots_ad.F accordingly.
3000    o pkg/seaice:
3001     - Added SEAICEuseTILT run time switch : if set to
3002       false then omit the tilt term in seaice dynamics.
3003     - Fix free drift calculation.
3004    o pkg/shelfice:
3005      When initializing SHELFICEDragQuadratic, set default to be
3006      consistent with shiCdrag in case SHELFICEuseGammaFrict is used,
3007      but retain option to set it independently
3008      (inconsistenty spotted by Veronique Dansereau)
3009    o eesupp/inc:
3010      - in EEPARAMS.h, add real-type constant for some frequently used simple number
3011         (0,1,2,1/2), with name explicitly referring to RS/RL type.
3012    o model/src:
3013      - move balancing of relaxation terms to new S/R balance_relax.F.
3014    o pkg/autodiff:
3015      re-write active I/O high-level (control) S/R:
3016      - rename  S/R ACTIVE_READ/WRITE_RL to ACTIVE_READ/WRITE_3D_RL
3017      - add 1 more argument (useCurrentDir) to replace the "_LOC" 2nd set of S/R.
3018      - use standard pkg/mdsio I/O routines (MDS_READ/WRITE_SEC_XZ/YZ  and
3019        MDS_READ/WRITE_FIELD); change loops to multi-threads.
3020      - update and merge active_file_control_slice.flow into active_file_control.flow
3021      - update the calls in lower level S/R (active_file.F, active_file_g.F and
3022        active_file_ad.F) keeping the argument list and function unchanged.
3023      - also update lower-level "_LOC" version (call same S/R with "useCurrentDir
3024        =.TRUE.") and remove high-level (control) _loc version (not called anymore).
3025      - new low-level active I/O routines, one for each type (RL/RS), for active var
3026        of various (XY,XZ,YZ) shape and level number (arguments: arrShape, myNr);
3027        fix ctrl_init_wet.F & ecco_cost_weights.F by calling the new S/R with the
3028        right type.
3029    o autodiff and RS=real*4:
3030      - call the right type (_RS instead of _RL) of S/R in few output S/R (pkg/exf
3031        ad-monitor and snapshots); disable arrType='RS' in mdsio_gl*.F ;
3032      - change argument type of 3-D mask argument to _RS to match type in the call
3033        (in seaice_cost*.F, ctrl_*_gen.F and *ctrl_bound.F); to be continued.
3034    o pkg/thsice:
3035      - re-anable balanceEmPmR when useSEAICE=T with useThSIce=T.
3036      - option to correct ocean fresh-water flux for imbalance of Atmos+Land
3037        fresh-water flux: uniform correction or proportional to local precip.
3038    o pkg/ctrl:
3039      - new header file CTRL_SIZE.h for parameters maxCtrlArr2D, maxCtrlArr3D
3040      - redefine CPP option ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG_CONTROL to
3041                            ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG_CONTROL_NONGENERIC
3042      - verification/hs94.1x64x5/ tests ALLOW_GENARR{2D,3D}_CONTROL
3043    
3044    checkpoint63q (2012/07/30)
3045    o pkg/autodiff:
3046      note about monitor and snap-shot of ad-variables:
3047      a) need to apply ADEXCH before monitor or output of ad-vars to include
3048       overlap contributions (was done for adjDump but missing for monitor).
3049      b) since ADEXCH implies adding overlap values to interior array, machine
3050       truncation error is expected when adding an ADEXCH call in the middle of
3051       the time-stepping (although mathematically identical).
3052      modifs:
3053      - fix some incorrect type (RL/RS, UV/scalar) in ADEXCH calls and ad-vars
3054        declaration (adEddyPsiX,adEddyPsiY in adcommon.h).
3055      - add new run-time params (dumpAdVarExch & mon_AdVarExch) to select how  to
3056        apply ADEXCH before monitor or snap-shot of ad-variables:
3057           =0 : no ADEXCH ; =1 : do ADEXCH ; =2 : apply ADEXCH on a local copy.
3058      - implement new method (copy+adexch) for snap-shot and monitor of main model
3059        ad-vars (initially not used by default -> output unchanged).
3060      - change default (set to 2) to use new method and update few output_adm.txt
3061        with accurate ad-monitor (global_ocean.90x40x15, tutorial_global_oce_biogeo
3062        and both tutorial_tracer_adjsens tests).
3063      - switch 2 global_ocean.cs32x15 AD-tests to AB-2 (seaice_dynmix & thsice)
3064        and turn off momDissip_In_AB in the 2 other (needed for stable AB-3).
3065    o pkg/ctrl:
3066      enable the use of a variable number (maxCtrlArr2D, maxCtrlArr3D) of
3067      generic control variables via
3068      #define ALLOW_GENARR2D_CONTROL and/or #define ALLOW_GENARR3D_CONTROL
3069      Only required customization should be S/R ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F
3070      (routine in repository contains example)
3071    o pkg/exf:
3072      - fix and refine checking of surface-relaxation setting when using EXF
3073    o verification (adjoint exp):
3074      - reduce length of simulation by half for experiment global_ocean.cs32x15
3075        (std, seaice & seaice_dynmix) and exp tutorial_dic_adjoffline; update output.
3076    o pkg/mom_common (mom_u/v_bottomdrag), pkg/shelfice (shelfice_u/v_drag)
3077      - replace if statements KE.ne.0 with KE.gt.0 to avoid sqrt of negative numbers
3078        of KE that can occur with aggressive optimization
3079      + put quadratic bottom drag calculation in separated loops (only done if
3080        using bottomDragQuadratic)
3081    o model/src: CG2D_NSA
3082      - clean-up:  stop if cg2dNormaliseRHS=T and AUTODIFF
3083         and replace GLOBAL_SUM calls with GLOBAL_SUM_TILE.
3084      - in test-exp that uses CG2D_NSA (bottom_ctrl & tutorial_tracer_adjsens),
3085         change cg2d residual target to be expressed in Wunits (=> do not normalise
3086         RHS ; this fix global_max Pb with TAF); update output.
3087    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens:
3088       improve parameter consistency (and get rid of warnings):
3089       - use deltaTFreeSurf=deltaTtracer (better with NonLin FreeSurf);
3090       - switch Temp Adv Scheme from 81 to 80 (no limiter since theta < 0 is physical)
3091       - use staggerTimeStep (for stability) in som81; use default rotation period.
3092    o pkg/exch2:
3093      - with empty facet: fix compact-format (W2_mapIO=1) definition (was previously
3094        reset to 0 = 1 long line in X)
3095    o pkg/mdsio:
3096      - fix reading of dimensions from meta file for large-size domain
3097    o model/src:
3098      - fix saltIsActiveTr setting for IdealGas eosType (eosType is 6 character long);
3099      - to refine CS-grid check, add logical flag "hasWetCSCorners": true if using
3100        Cubed-Sphere Exch with CS-corners inside the domain;
3101        make new S/R INI_GLOBAL_DOMAIN from code in ini_linear_phisurf.F to calculate
3102        globalArea and to set hasWetCSCorners.
3103      - add warning if usingCurvilinearGrid and momAdvection in flux-form (missing
3104        metric terms); stop if hasWetCSCorners=T and momAdvection in flux-form.
3105      - re-activate the stop if useCDscheme and hasWetCSCorners=T (previously if
3106        useCDscheme and useCubedSphereExchange).
3107    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F :
3108      - compute the SEAICE_DISABLE_HEATCONSFIX term accordingly
3109        for the (.NOT.useRealFreshWaterFlux).OR.(nonlinFreeSurf.EQ.0)
3110        when the previous code was not correct.
3111      - in all cases diagnoze the boundary condition mismatch to SIaaflux
3112      - in the case of useRealFreshWaterFlux.AND.(nonlinFreeSurf.GT.0) add
3113        that term to QNET (essentially to set the melt/freeze water to 0degC).
3114        when SEAICEheatConsFix is true, so that the ocean+ice budget heat is closed.
3115    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.seaice :
3116      - add SEAICEheatConsFix in data.seaice, ensuring closed ocean+ice heat budget.
3117      - add diagnostics (commented out) for budget test using my matlab codes (gcmfaces).
3118      - update results (output.seaice.txt) accordingly.
3119    o verification/lab_sea/input/data.seaice :
3120      - remove SEAICEheatConsFix, which is now be tested
3121        in global_ocean.cs32x15. The presently coded fix
3122        is only consistent with real fresh water + nlfs.
3123      - update results (output.txt) accordingly.
3124    o pkg/salt_plume: added diagnotic for salt tendency (oceSPtnd).
3125    o AD_CONFIG.h file:
3126      - in genmake2: remove "#undef ALLOW_ECCO_OPTIMIZATION" from AD_CONFIG.h;
3127      - remove #include "AD_CONFIG.h" from all included OPTIONS files and
3128        add it explicitly in each fortran src file where it is needed.
3129        motivation: header file AD_CONFIG.h is generated/modified after "make depend"
3130        thus introducing potentially wrong dependency; therefore, better to include
3131        it only where it's really needed, and after any other included OPTIONS file
3132        (less tempting to bring conditional includes according to ALLOW_ADJOINT_RUN
3133        or ALLOW_TANGENTLINEAR_RUN).
3134    
3135    checkpoint63p (2012/07/06)
3136    o pkg/autodiff:
3137      - rename S/R INI_AUTODIFF to AUTODIFF_INIT_VARIA ;
3138      - create new header file "AUTODIFF_PARAMS.h" for pkg/autodiff parameters
3139        which are now read from new parameter file "data.autodiff" (inAdExact
3140        previously in "data", use{KPP/GMRedi/SEAICE}inAdMode previously in data.pkg)
3141      - add file "data.autodiff" in all verification/*/input_ad/ directories.
3142      - add run-time parameter to turn On/Off SEAICEuseFREEDRIFT in adjoint/forward
3143        mode (used in global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice_dynmix test exp.)
3144    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens/
3145      - add extra sub-verification which uses "SOM" advection scheme
3146        (2nd Order-Moment Advection Scheme, Prather Limiter) with
3147          #define GAD_ALLOW_TS_SOM_ADV in GAD_OPTIONS.h
3148        and in data:
3149          multiDimAdvection=.TRUE.,
3150          tempAdvScheme=81,
3151          saltAdvScheme=81,
3152    o model/src:
3153      - introduce ALLOW_BALANCE_RELAX which allow the removal
3154       of the global mean of relaxation terms by setting
3155       balanceThetaClimRelax and balanceSaltClimRelax
3156      - disable balanceEmPmR and balanceQnet in the case when useSeaice.
3157       This case is now treated appropriately in seaice_growth.F
3158    o pkg/seaice:
3159      - do balanceEmPmR and balanceQnet based on the net fluxes
3160        (SItflux) that enter the ocean+ice system rather than QNET
3161        and EMPMR. Works best in real fresh water.
3162      - SIatmFW, SIatmQnet, and SItflux computations had to be moved
3163        out of the diagnotics bloc, and stored in global arrays.
3164    
3165    checkpoint63o (2012/06/29)
3166    o vertical mixing schemes:
3167      - remove unused S/R CALC_BUOYANCY (left from branch-atmos merging)
3168      - replace computation of density (in Function STATE1, opps_calc.F) by a call
3169        to S/R FIND_RHO_SCALAR
3170      - pass sigmaR to S/R PP81_CALC, MY82_CALC (but not yet used) and to GGL90_CALC
3171        and use it for N^2 calculation in ggl90_calc.F (save 2 density computations);
3172        affects output (vermix.ggl90) at truncation level.
3173    o testreport:
3174      - change adjustment of SIZE.h for mpi+mth testing: preserve enough tiles
3175        (nSx,nSy) for the number of threads (from eedata.mth)
3176    o model/src:
3177      - remove 2nd set of calls at the top of initialise_varia.F (Adjoint part)
3178        related to Non_Lin Free-Surf or Bottom-Control (but not longer necessary).
3179    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens/
3180      - compile with ALLOW_CG2D_NSA
3181      - run with nonlinFreeSurf=3
3182      - update reference output_adm.txt
3183    o tools/genmake2:
3184      - add "-DHAVE_NETCDF" to the DEFINES list when NetCDF is available ;
3185        refine usePROFILES switching off (only when NetCDF is not available).
3186    o verification (atmospheric set-up):
3187      - change eosType='IDEALGAS' to eosType='IDEALG' to match variable declaration
3188    o pkg/profiles : refine profiles and files handling.
3189    o model/src and pkg/ecco : introduce run-time switch usePROFILES.
3190    o model/src/the_main_loop.F, forward_step.F and pkg/exf/EXF_OPTIONS.h :
3191      - changes to use model/src/the_main_loop.F rather than the ecco version
3192        in ecco type adjoint runs.
3193    o model/src:
3194      - move computation of recip of grid distance & area from INI_MASKS_ETC to INI_GRID
3195      - move setting of h0Fac[C,W,S] from INI_LINEAR_PHISURF to INI_MASKS_ETC
3196      - update_masks_etc.F: rename SMOOTH*_R4,R8 function to the corresponding type (RS,RL)
3197    o model/src:
3198      - fix S/R UPDATE_CG2D for ALLOW_DEPTH_CONTROL case (was empty before);
3199        update output of test experiment bottom_ctrl_5x5.
3200    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
3201      - implement vertical bi-harmonic diffusion (for now, only for T & S and
3202        only explicitly).
3203    o verification/bottom_ctrl_5x5/
3204      update reference output (results changed quite some time ago,
3205      not sure when; but new reference results look ok in terms of grdchk)
3206    o verification/1D_ocean_ice_column/
3207      For verification purposes, the exact adjoint rather than an approx.
3208      should be used (e.g., to comare against F.D. or TLM).
3209      removed autodiff_inadmode*_ad.F routines in code_ad/
3210      Update results/ accordingly.
3211    o pkg/cal:
3212      - change cal_getdate.F so that output date is function of input time only
3213        (less ambiguous, not mixed up with input iteration number).
3214      - fix calendarDumps for non-zero phase-lag (S/R CAL_TIME2DUMP).
3215    o pkg/diagnostics:
3216      - implement calendarDumps also for stats-diags
3217      - implement calendarDumps also for snap-shot output (negative freq)
3218      - for now, ignores calendarDumps if non-zero phase-lag.
3219    
3220    checkpoint63n (2012/06/04)
3221    o model/src:
3222      - recompute rSurfW & S to ensure consistent column thickness (needed for rStar)
3223        between Sum_k(hFac*drF) and rSurf-rLow, for now only when using pkg/shelfice;
3224      - use h0FacC, W & S to compute hFac_surfC, W & S in calc_surf_dr.F (more
3225        similar to calc_r_star.F); update results of experiment internal_wave and
3226        tutorial_global_oce_in_p (affected @ truncation level).
3227    o pkg/shelfice:
3228      - add parameterisation of advective-diffusive flux into the ice shelf
3229        according to Holland and Jenkins (1999), eq.22-33, as suggested by Jan De Ryd
3230      - simply eps3/3a computation
3231    o eesupp:
3232     - add new CPP option (DISCONNECTED_TILES) to disconnect tiles (no exchange
3233       between tiles, just fill-in edges assuming locally periodic subdomain) and
3234       add corresponding exchange subroutines (EXCH0);
3235     - new CG-solver version (_EX0) for disconnected-tiles special case.
3236    o model/src (CG-solvers):
3237     - modify Single-Reduction version (CG2D_SR) in case cg2dMaxIters is reached
3238       (similar final residual output and max-Iter number as with standard version);
3239     - allows to store and use lowest-residual solution (standard & _SR versions);
3240     - cleaning up (remove old, commented out code, LETS_MAKE_JAM ...).
3241     - by default, also compile CG2D_SR version (define ALLOW_SRCG in CPP_OPTIONS.h)
3242    o eesup/src:
3243     - global_vec_sum.F cleaning: add a BARRIER ; update comments ; remove ndef
3244       ALWAYS_USE_MPI (no longer needed after fixing usingMPI settings - March 2012)
3245    o pkg/salt_plume added to lab_sea/input_ad.noseaicedyn
3246    
3247    checkpoint63m (2012/04/27)
3248    o pkg/shelfice:
3249     - account for partical cells in surface level below ice-shelf for hydrostatic
3250       pressure calculion (set uniformFreeSurfLev to F); update isomip experiments.
3251    o ad test experiments:
3252     - update and rename to "ad_optfile.local" local AD-optfile specific to a
3253       particular adjoint verification experiment (in verification/*/code_ad/)
3254    o pkg/seaice & pkg/exf:
3255     - Part two of ECCO-CLIVAR code merges.
3256       Completes merge of seaice area relax. code.
3257       Requires unified CPP option EXF_ALLOW_SEAICE_RELAX
3258       to be set in EXF_OPTIONS.h since this pkg controls its I/O
3259       (and avoids second CPP option in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h)
3260     - change default value of costIceStart & costIceEnd to a valid date.
3261     - add snowPrecip to HSNOW in seaice_growth
3262    o pkg/ptracers:
3263     - move ptracers summary and setup check into separated S/R ; add a check for
3264       valid PTRACERS_Iter0 value (error+stop or just warning).
3265    o pkg/cal (+ pkg/ecco):
3266     - avoid calling a S/R with 2 times the same arg (FWD: unless both are only used
3267       as input; and for AD, unless both are not differentiable (e.g., k index)).
3268    o model/src:
3269     - define internal flag "uniformFreeSurfLev" (=T when free-surface level-index
3270       is everywhere k=1) to speed-up some calculations (by pass kSurf reference);
3271       temporary set to usingZCoords value (to be changed to F when using shelfice).
3272     - hydrostatic pressure: implement partial cell near the surface also for
3273       Z-coordinates (for the case where uniformFreeSurfLev=F); replace test on
3274       usingZCoords with test on uniformFreeSurfLev where needed (in NonHyd code).
3275    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_init.F:
3276     - add a formal parameter to s/r ctrl_init_rec to print
3277       xx_$(ctrl_valiable)_file for easier debugging
3278     - move call of cal_* routines into the if-block where they are really
3279       needed so that xx_$(ctrl_variable)_period can be 0 or -12 without having
3280       to specify a startdate
3281    o pkg/seaice:
3282     - update comments in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h (+ similar update of lab_sea/code and
3283       global_ocean.cs32x15/code versions).
3284     - turn on seaice Multi-category (in data.seaice, SEAICE_multDim=7) for
3285       verification experiment global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice and update results.
3286    o pkg/exf:
3287     - new S/R EXF_GETFIELD_START to return starting-time of a forcing field
3288       (according to useExfYearlyFields).
3289    o pkg/cal:
3290     - move calendar setting & summary (previously in cal_readparams.F) into new
3291       S/R CAL_INIT_FIXED to be called later in the initialisation process, once
3292       length of the simulation is set (after SET_PARMS call); This is an attempt
3293       to fix Pb when, e.g.: pkg/longstep, modifies the length of the run.
3294     - For safety: keep a record of pkg/cal parameter settings status
3295               to allow to STOP if one pkg/cal S/R is called too early.
3296     - add a stop in all basic pkg/cal subroutines if called before setting is done.
3297     - modify cal_getdate.F: stop when nothing was returned;
3298       if called with myIter=-1, simply retrun modelBaseDate (1,2 = startDate_1,_2);
3299       this allows to remove "cal.h" from seaice_read_parms.F & init_mnc_vars.F.
3300    
3301    checkpoint63l (2012/04/04)
3302    o pkg/bbl:
3303      - fix call to FIND_RHO_2D in bbl_calc_rho.F (case multi-tiles per proc);
3304        update global_with_exf output.yearly.txt file.
3305    o pkg/cal:
3306      - start to clean-up cal_set.F ; fix for the case where baseTime is non-zero.
3307      - remove 2 unsused and very short (1 line only) functions ;
3308      - remove unsused subroutines from AD-Diff list.
3309    o model/src:
3310      - start to implement clean wait to stop in initialization S/R (config_check.F,
3311         packages_check.F, ini_parms.F and pkg/obcs/obcs_check.F + pkg/mypackage)
3312    o folowing PRINT_MESSAGE changes:
3313      - remove reminder multiple print to the same file (STDOUT) when multi-threads.
3314    o pkg/bbl:
3315      - modification so it can work with z*
3316      - replace deltaT with dTtracerLev(k) for asynchronous time stepping
3317      - global_with_exf/input.yearly verification; changes output.yearly.txt
3318    o eesupp/src:
3319      - PRINT_MESSAGE: use OpenMP critical instruction (similar to PRINT_ERROR);
3320        writing to unit 0 (if unit=errorMessageUnit) extended to the case myThid=1
3321      - CHECK_THREADS: specific code if using OpenMP threading: improve checking of
3322        # of threads across processors (e.g., different env OMP_NUM_THREADS setting)
3323      - improve special preliminary call to EESET_PARMS (if eedata is read 2 times).
3324      - when using MPI, always set usingMPI=T ; set default accordingly and stop
3325        if not consistent.
3326      - ALL_PROC_DIE: add a BARRIER after MPI_FINALIZE call ; skip this when thread
3327        argument is zero (in case called within single-thread section).
3328    o pkg/fizhi:
3329        clean-up turbulence cold-start switch: decided in fizhi_init_vars.F, stored
3330        in common bloc (fizhi_coms.h) and then passed as argument up to S/R TURBIO.
3331    o pkg/exch2:
3332      - add argument "updateCorners" to S/R exch2_get_uv_bounds (enable to
3333        activate EXCH_IGNORE_CORNERS in vector EXCH S/R).
3334      - switch 1rst EXCH call to IGNORE_CORNERS (instead of UPDATE_CORNERS)
3335        but keep the 2nd with UPDATE_CORNERS: this prevents overwriting good data
3336        with bad ones coming from a not-yet-updated halo.
3337        This should fix the problem when sNx <> sNy and GCD(sNx,sNy) < 2*Olx.
3338    o pkg/frazil:
3339        move FrzForcT diag from frazil_diagnostics_state.F to frazil_calc_rhs.F
3340        http://mitgcm.org/pipermail/mitgcm-devel/2012-March/005384.html
3341    o model/src/config_check.F: add a check for OLx>sNx/OLy>sNy
3342    o verification/lab_sea
3343      * #undef SEAICE_EXCLUDE_FOR_EXACT_AD_TESTING
3344      * #define ALLOW_SST_CONTROL & ALLOW_SST_CONTROL
3345      * nTimeSteps 3 -> 4
3346      * changed reference output accordingly
3347    o pkg/ctrl:
3348      * fix ctrl_get_gen for xx_sst, xx_sss
3349    o pkg/fizhi:
3350      - fix 2 calls to S/R GRD2MSC (argument igrd) in update_earth_exports.F
3351        update results of exp. fizhi-cs-32x32x40 (fail with only 6 digits for cg2d)
3352      - by default, use new version of S/R GETPWHERE (#define TRY_NEW_GETPWHERE);
3353        fix few out-of-bounds indices in referencing vars (initialise igrd to 1);
3354        clean-up fizhi_turb.F (remove unused & uninitialised qdiaglsm array).
3355    o pkg/gmredi:
3356      - add diagnostic of Redi (main diagnonal) vertical diffusive flux of Temp
3357    o pkg/fizhi:
3358      - fix few initialisation and multi-tile Pb: aqualev & gridalt now pass the
3359        (old)aces open64 tuv test.
3360    o pkg/icefront: fix bug and reorder loop in icefront_init_varia.F
3361    o pkg/mom_vecinv:
3362      - fix 1 loop range in mom_vecinv.F to be like all the other loops which
3363        set/update gu,gv/Diss (fix Pb of uninitialised fVerUkp in admom_vecinv
3364        with non-lin free-surf).
3365    o model/src: move k-loop outside of i/j-loops when (re-)computing R_low
3366      in ini/update_masks_etc.F in order to avoid -O3 optimization problems with
3367      some compilers (gfortran 4.6.0 on MacOS)
3368    o momentum:
3369      - separate fVer?(:,:,kUp) & fVer?(:,:,kDown) in argument list of MOM_FLUXFORM
3370        & MOM_VECINV subroutines (to help TAF). This fixes Pb of uninitialised
3371        fVer?(kUp) in admom_fluxform with non-lin free-surf or bottom control.
3372    
3373    checkpoint63k (2012/03/17)
3374    o model/src:
3375       - selectAddFluid (ALLOW_ADDFLUID): add missing term in horizontal momentum
3376         flux-form (mom_fluxform.F) and vertical momentum (calc_gw.F) equations.
3377       - SOLVE_DIAGONAL: switch default to use adjoinable & vectorized version
3378         (#undef SOLVE_DIAGONAL_LOWMEMORY); update output of exp. front_relax.bvp.
3379    o model/src: solve_*diagonal.F
3380       - replace division with multiplication by inverse (similar to original version)
3381         update output of AD exp. global_ocean.90x40x15.
3382       - fix pkg/gmredi/gmredi_calc_psi_bvp.F & pkg/ggl90/ggl90_calc.F
3383         to enable the use of the vectorized & differentiable solve_tridiagonal.F
3384       - test exp. global_ocean.90x40x15/input_ad: switch to advection scheme 20 for
3385         vertical advection (to get solve_tridiagonal tested in AD mode).
3386    o pkg/seaice: ECCO-CLIVAR merge:
3387      1. seaice AREA relaxation
3388         * CPP option: SEAICE_ALLOW_AREA_RELAXATION
3389         * runtime flag: SEAICE_tauAreaObsRelax
3390      2. modified global mean cost imbalance code: CPP option
3391          ALLOW_SSH_GLOBMEAN_COST_CONTRIBUTION
3392    o another iteration on solve_*diagonal.F
3393       Make choices independent of AUTODIFF
3394       Default will be the adjoinable vectorized version.
3395       Alternative choices are:
3396       * non-adjoinable original version with low memory footprint:
3397         #define SOLVE_DIAGONAL_LOWMEMORY
3398       * still adjoinable but does not vectorize (k as inner-most loop):
3399         #define SOLVE_DIAGONAL_KINNER (keeping SOLVE_DIAGONAL_LOWMEMORY undef)
3400    o testreport
3401     - add option to use a home made wrapper around "make"
3402     - remove MITGCM_IEEE env. variable (no longer active)
3403    o pkg/shelfice
3404     - improve computation of friction velocity for velocity dependent
3405       exchange coefficients: include velocities into SHELFICEBoundaryLayer
3406       block to average velocities vertically
3407     - add TAF store directives for SHI_ALLOW_GAMMAFRICT
3408    o Modify diagonal solvers, now three versions (upon request):
3409      #ifndef SOLVE_DIAGONAL_AUTODIFF
3410        1. default version (dating back a while ago)
3411      #else /* def SOLVE_DIAGONAL_AUTODIFF */
3412      # ifdef SOLVE_DIAGONAL_KINNER
3413        2. adjoinable version with k-innermost loop (G. Forget)
3414      # else
3415        3. adjoinable vectorized version of 2.
3416      # endif
3417      #endif /* SOLVE_DIAGONAL_AUTODIFF */
3418      All flags are currently set within routines, but could/should be moved to CPP-options.
3419      Array bounds for 1. are as before, for 2.,3. cover the entire domain
3420      (could be changed for 1. too).
3421    o verification/lab_sea (fwd):
3422      - update the 4 fwd lab_sea test experiment: no longer SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY,
3423        use 7 categories (except hb87), new solve4temp params (except salt_plume),
3424        constant salinity (=4) or variable salinity (salt_plume) done through
3425        SItracer.
3426    o pkg/seaice:
3427      - rename parameters: SIsalFrac to SEAICE_saltFrac & SIsal0 to SEAICE_salt0;
3428      - remove old parameters ( SEAICE_freeze, SEAICEturbFluxFormula, SEAICE_gamma_t,
3429         SEAICE_gamma_t_frz, SEAICE_availHeatTaper & SEAICE_availHeatFracFrz)
3430        from SEAICE_PARMS.h ; still need to fix seaice_cost_sst.F (broken when
3431        SEAICE_freeze got retired) but already better than previously with
3432        SEAICE_freeze=123456.7 deg.C;
3433      - move setting of facOpenGrow/Melt from SEAICE_INIT_FIXED to SEAICE_READPARMS
3434        (safer multi-threaded setting); always set SEAICEuseEVP;
3435      - setting of ocean-ice turb. flux coeff: moved from SEAICE_CHECK to
3436        SEAICE_READPARMS & SEAICE_INIT_FIXED (this fixes wrong summary report);
3437        stop if multiple specifications for the same coeff; make sure default
3438        SEAICE_mcPheePiston is compatible with drF(1) & deltaT.
3439    o pkg/obcs:
3440      - allow to switch to upwind 1rst order advection scheme for the advective
3441        flux computation at the open-boundary; disabled for adjoint built.
3442    o pkg/ptracers:
3443      - rename PTRACERS_RESTART.h -> PTRACERS_START.h
3444      - rename ptracers_fields_blocking_exchanges.F -> ptracers_fields_blocking_exch.F
3445      - add parameter to decide when to start a tracer; use internal flag to
3446        know which tracer to step-forward; switch this internal flag at the top
3447        of forward_step.F (new S/R PTRACERS_SWITCH_ONOFF); for now, not enabled
3448        for adjoint built.
3449    o pkg/seaice:
3450      - add SEAICE_SIZE.h anywhere in the code where SEAICE.h is included ;
3451      - move MULTDIM declaration and setting from SEAICE.h to SEAICE_SIZE.h ;
3452      - keep experiment offline_exf_seaice truly single category (set MULTDIM=1).
3453    o pkg/ecco:
3454      - fix writing of output file DiagnosCost_ClimSalt/Theta
3455        and DiagnosCost_DriftSalt/Theta (if multi-tiles per proc).
3456    o pkg/seaice:
3457      - add missing initialisation of COR_ICE array in dynsolver.F
3458      - merging SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY define and undef cases. Now the same code is
3459        compiled either way, and is tested in all exps (multidim was only tested
3460        in lab_sea ad before).
3461      - cosmetic change to prepare for future addition of ITD. no change to results.
3462        no defaults change.
3463      - added run time param SEAICE_multDim (7 for SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY, 1 otherwise).
3464      - by lack of adequate verification experiments, I further used custom versions
3465        of global_ocean.cs32x15 to test multicat or not, with pickup or not. All
3466        should be correct.
3467      - avoid recomputations in ad.
3468    o array initialisation in adjoint mode:
3469      1) pkg/mom_common/mom_calc_ke.F:
3470        add full array initialisation of KE inside mom_calc_ke.F (ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC):
3471        The S/R which calls MOM_CALC_KE initialises KE but in some recomputation
3472        part this initialisation is gone, resulting in Floating Point Exception
3473        (caught by open64 compiler with debug option).
3474      2) model/src/convective_weights.F
3475        set output convectCount over the full array range (instead of doing
3476        an update): this fix a similar issue when called within recomputation (adjoint)
3477        which could by-pass the initialisation (normally done in the caller S/R).
3478    o pkg/seaice:
3479      - final version of turbulent flux params, as agreed at MIT ice meet:
3480           SEAICE_mcPheePiston (default is ~ 0.000875)
3481           SEAICE_mcPheeTaper (default is 0.)
3482           SEAICE_frazilFrac (defualt is 1.)
3483           SEAICE_mcPheeStepFunc (default is false)
3484      - changes results at trunction error level
3485      - ifdef SEAICE_EXTERNAL_FLUXES, disallow SEAICE_waterAlbedo
3486    o added pkg/frazil:
3487      - see frazil_description.tex for details
3488      - verification experiment is global_with_exf/input.yearly; changes output.yearly.txt
3489    o pkg/shelfice/shelfice_thermodynamics.F
3490      - fix exponents for velocity dependent exchange coefficients: change
3491        from 2/3(=0) to 0.66666666666666667
3492      - move computation of velocity dependent exchange coefficients into
3493        separate loop, so that it applies to both thermodynamics
3494      - move some divisions by constants out of loops
3495    
3496    checkpoint63j (2012/02/16)
3497    o pkg/seaice:
3498      - overhaul of seaice_summary.F after feb 2012 clean-up of seaice_growth.F etc.

3500    o pkg/seaice: remove (almost) all divisions by constants within loops
3501      in seaice_growth.F and seaice_solve4temp.F, this changes (only) the cg2d
3502      results of global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice from 16 to 11 digits (but only
3503      those, caused by 1/QI -> recip_QI) -> update output.seaice.txt,
3504      output_adm.seaice_dynmix.txt and also lab_sea: output_adm.evp.txt
3505    o pkg/seaice :
3506      - simplify McPhee tapering, and allow to use it with SEAICEturbFluxFormula
