4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o pkg/layers:
8      - fix snap-shot output of layer thickness @ V.pt and output of pot.density
9      - fix calculation of layer non-weighted velocity and layer probability
10      - add diagnostics for pot.density used for layer averaging
11    o pkg/seaice:
12      - seaice_calc_viscosity.F: change computation of deltaC**2 to ensure
13        positiveness, modify a few comments and improve variable names,
14      - the changed computation of deltaC affects most seaice-related
15        experiments at the truncation level.
16        seaice_itd.thermo is affected by far the most, with
17        only 7 digits of agreement remaining; update experiments.
18    
19    checkpoint65l (2015/05/04)
20    o pkg/shelfice:
21      - in shelfice_thermodynamics.F, if SHELFICEBoundaryLayer=.true., then set
22        factor drKp1 to zero where it is negative (ie. do not use
23        SHELFICEBoundaryLayer if hFacC>1)
24      - the same for factor drLoc in shelfice_forcing.F
25    o tools/genmake2: move FEXTRAFLAGS from FFLAGS to FOPTIM to avoid a problem
26        with modules in ptracers, when using testreport option "-small_f"
27    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F (in case of SEAICE_ITD)
28      - replace tmpscal1**1.36 by faster exp(1.36*log(tmpscal1))
29    o verification/testreport
30      - add new option -small_f
31        with this option testreport first makes the target small_f (*.f files)
32        before running make (all). This is useful for explicit inlining when
33        all sources need to be full available.
34    o pkg/exf/exf_interp.F:
35        remove previous changes related to reverse (decreasing) input grids latitude
36    
37    checkpoint65k (2015/04/01)
38    o pkg/ecco:
39        fix missing cosphi initialization; use eccoiter in place of optimcycle;
40        if autodiff is not compiled then use READ_REC_XY_RL/READ_REC_XYZ_RL
41        instead of active read/write
42    o pkg/ctrl:
43        if autodiff is not compiled then use READ_REC_XY_RL/READ_REC_XYZ_RL
44        instead of active read/write.
45    o pkg/autodiff: make autodiff_readparms.F and autodiff_whtapeio_sync.F
46        return if .NOT.useAUTODIFF
47    o pkg/seaice: add CPP brackets (cost function related).
48    o model/src:
49        add useAUTODIFF run time switch.
50    o pkg/exf/exf_interp.F:
51        add code to allow input grids with latitude starting in the north (i.e. when
52        j=1 corresponds to northern edge of field); modify global_with_exf to test
53        this feature.
54    o verification/testreport:
55      - replace "grep -A3" with POSIX conformal sed command, because there are
56        implementations of grep that cannot do contextual searches
57      - replace "cat -n" by "nl" (two occurrences), because not all implementations
58        of "cat" have the option "-n"
59    o model/src:
60        add new file gsw_teos10.F that contains 3 functions, more or less a copy
61        of the gsw_toolbox.f90 of the TEOS-10 fortran interface, that are used to
62        convert from conservative to potential temperature. For now they are not
63        called anywhere.
64    o pkg/ggl90: make "useIDEMIX" useful
65      - re-organize code in s/r ggl90_calc a little to move computations that
66        are different for idemix into separate loops (changes verification
67        experiment idemix at truncation level, 12 digits remain -> updated)
68      - requires 2 new 2D fields KappaM, verticalShear
69      - make hFacI and recip_hFacI local 3D variables that are passed to
70        s/r ggl90_idemix
71      - fix and improve some comments
72    
73    checkpoint65j (2015/02/25)
74    o pkg/openad
75      - synchronize seawater.F with version in model/src: replace routine
76        body of sw_temp by calling sw_ptmp and fix/add a few comments.
77    o pkg/mnc:
78      - change default value of pickup_read/write_mnc params to FALSE
79        (since few features are missing in reading MNC pickup files).
80    o model/src:
81      - change default (background) vertical diffusivity for salt to be the
82        temperature (background) vertical diffusivity.
83      - change background vertical diffusivity in vertical mixing pkgs ggl90,
84        kl10, my82 and pp81 from temperature diffusivity to salinity diffusivity.
85        This makes ptracers default diffusivity (that uses salt diffKr) more
86        consistent with vertical mixing schemes.
87    o verification/testreport:
88      - fix typo in "-pcls" option ;
89      - put temp files in /tmp (instead of in local dir)
90      - add option "-ncad" to use genmake2 new option "-nocat4ad"
91      - allow to use "-j" option (for multi-procs make) for AD, OAD and TLM.
92    o pkg/ggl90 (idemix code):
93      - apply few fixes ; add some missing "_d 0" ; update output of exp.
94        global_ocean.90x40x15.idemix
95    o OpenAD
96      - enable active file I/O and begin removal of work-around code
97        for OpenAD for handling control variables (memory vs. active files)
98      - new CPP options file OPENAD_OPTIONS.h
99      - revert to genarr2d gradient check for hs94.1x64x5
100      - (genarr3d tested by tutorial_global_oce_biogeo, tutorial_tracer_adjsens)
101      - gentim2d works for halfpipe_streamice but not yet hs94.1x64x5
102    o tools/genmake2:
103      - add option for an alternative Makefile (from Martin) where multiple
104        source files are sent to TAF (instead of all in one file).
105    o pkg/ggl90: add IDEMIX (Olbers and Eden, 2013)
106      - code provided by Carsten Eden as an extension of ggl90
107      - so far the code is turned on within ggl90 by setting a CPP-flag at
108        compile time; a runtime flag implementation is not yet complete
109      - tested in new verification experiment global_ocean.90x40x15.idemix
110    o verification:
111      - reduce length of the AD test run by half for experiments
112        global_ocean.cs32x15 (std + thsice) and isomip
113      - enable active file I/O for OpenAD, adjust verifications accordingly
114      - halfpipe_streamice: change gradient check from genarr2d to gentim2d
115    o verification/testreport:
116      - fix two non-POSIX sed statements so that there are no error messages
117        on Mac OS X
118      - replace hostname -s with hostname | sed 's/\..*$//'
119    o model/src/seawater.F:
120      - simplify SW_TEMP to just calling SW_PTMP with P and PR exchanged
121        (following the matlab code), which would have avoided the bug caught
122        by Matt (see below) in the first place
123    o pkg/shelfice:
124      - implement alternative discretisation of quadratic drag (selectBotDragQuadr)
125        and true distance in no-slip BC (bottomVisc_pCell) similar to bottom-drag.
126      - fix sign of friction tendency (no-slip BC) and fix u,v drag for thin
127        ice-shelf case (i.e., within surface level).
128      - add config summary in shelfice_check.F
129      - remove global variable recip_SHELFICElatentHeat and replace by a local
130        variable recip_latentHeat
131      - introduce diagnostics for friction velocity uStar (in case of
132        SHELFICEuseGammaFrict)
133      - change verification experiment isomip.htd:
134        + start from pickup (as input_ad at nIter0=8640)
135        + start from SHELFICEmassFile instead of SHELFICEloadAnomaly file
136        + test SHELFICEuseGammaFrict = .TRUE.
137        + test SHELFICEadvDiffHeatFlux = .TRUE.
138    o model/src:
139      - fix bug (Thanks to Matt) in function SW_TEMP (to convert Pot.Temp to
140        in-situ Temp) and in routine SW_TEMP (in pkg/openad);
141        update output of experiments global_with_exf.yearly and isomip (all 6).
142    o pkg/shelfice:
143      - change setting of kTopC to also be zero where there is no ice-shelf.
144      - zero out surface forcing arrays (for now, for T & S + EmPmR) where
145        ice-shelf is.
146      - first attempt to get RealFreshWaterFlux effects: for now, only without
147        SHELFICEboundaryLayer ; not consistent if using synchronous time-stepping.
148    o pkg/seaice: add the option to prescribe a fixed thickness PDF
149      for thermodynamic calculations
150      - because of divisions of the type 7/7 not exactly equal to 1, this change
151        affects results of some verification experiments by up to 4 digits:
152        global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice, lab_sea, lab_sea.fd, lab_sea.salt_plume,
153        seaice_obcs, seaice_obcs.seaiceSponge, seaice_obcs.tides
154        adjoint: lab_sea, lab_sea.noseaicedyn
155        -> updated
156    
157    checkpoint65i (2015/01/23)
158    o model/src:
159      - change units of frictionHeating field from W to W/m^2
160      - fix bug in frictional heating from stratospheric drag in
161        S/R ATM_PHYS_TENDENCY_APPLY_V
162      - with synchronous time-stepping: move resetting to zero of frictionHeating
163        field from load_fields_driver.F to thermodynamics.F ;
164      - add diagnostics for frictional heating.
165    o model/src & gmredi K3D:
166      - add frictionHeating field to pickup-files (for synchronous time-stepping)
167      - move ALLOW_EDDYPSI block out of DYNVARS.h and merge it into FFIELDS.h
168      - rename uMean,vMean --> uEulerMean,vEulerMean (+ change diagnostics name
169        and name in pickup file).
170      - fix arguments of few DIAGNOSTICS_FILL calls in gmredi_k3d.F
171    o model/src:
172      - move (from ini_forcing.F) initialisation of all arrays in header file
173        FFIELDS.h into new S/R ini_ffields.F ; this fix broken restart
174        (since Nov 2012) with option selectAddFluid=1.
175    o pkg/shelfice:
176      - change units (+ document) of newly added field "shelfIceMassDynTendency"
177      - upgrade from _RS to _RL shelficeMass & shelficeLoadAnomaly arrays.
178    o pkg/obcs: re-organize obcs_calc_stevens.F to prepare for passive tracers
179    o pkg/seaice: two new runtime parameters:
180      - SEAICE_cStar replaces the hard wired "20" in the strength formulation,
181        long overdue
182      - SEAICE_tensilFac: preparation for Koenig-Beatty+Holland (2012)
183        parameterization of tensil stress for fast ice (does not do anything yet)
184    o pkg/seaice/seaice_check.F: left over from restricted addtive Schwarz method
185        for LSR: move checking overlaps out of JFNK-if-block
186    o pkg/atm_phys:
187      - move copy of grid and dynamical fields out of atm_phys_driver.F into
188        new S/R ATM_PHYS_DYN2PHYS.
189      - fix level height for Linear Free-Surf case (to be consistent with
190        fixed-in-time pressure levels).
191    o pkg/mom_common (bottomdrag):
192      - average bottomDragFld (ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG_CONTROL) from grid-cell center
193        to correct location (U & V point) in S/R MOM_U/V_BOTTOMDRAG;
194        update output (adm & tlm) of experiment global_ocean.90x40x15.bottomdrag.
195    o pkg/shelfice (u/v_drag):
196      - add one argument (the other velocity component) to S/R SHELFICE_U/V_DRAG;
197      - use SHELFICEDragLinear & SHELFICEDragQuadratic in shelfice_v_drag.F
198        (now similar to shelfice_u_drag.F)
199      - remove condition on bottomDragTerms when calling SHELFICE_U/V_DRAG
200        from mom_vecinv.F (similar to mom_fluxform calls).
201    o pkg/mom_common (bottomdrag):
202      - add one argument (the other velocity component) to S/R MOM_U/V_BOTTOMDRAG;
203      - add options for alternative discretisation of velocity norm in quadratic
204        bottom drag: averaging of grid-cell-center KE to U.point and V.point
205        (selectBotDragQuadr=0, original code) can produce noisy patterns; this
206        improves when averaging only the other component (e.g. vVel for U bottom
207        drag) using wet-point method (selectBotDragQuadr=2) or not (=1).
208      - add options (bottomVisc_pCell) to account for partial-cell in bottom
209        friction (no-slip BC) thus getting the true distance from the bottom;
210        off by default since this also reduces model stability (explicit bottom
211        friction). Changes produce different machine truncation with linear-drag
212        + no-slip BC: update output of experiments exp4.stevens (10 digits) and
213        front_relax (bvp & mxl, 10 & 11 digits).
214    o model/src & mom pkgs:
215      - add one more level to vertical viscosity local arrays (Nr+1, previously Nr)
216        since no-slip bottom BC uses viscosity @ k+1 to update velocity @ level k
217      - for now and until vertical mixing scheme are updated to fill up level Nr+1,
218        just copy level Nr value to level Nr+1.
219    o doc:
220      - add notes form Abhisek Chakraborty on how to close Heat & Salt budgets.
221    o pkg/streamice:
222      - shelfice_init_varia.F, shelfice_init_fixed.F, shelfice_readparms.F,
223        SHELFICE.h: move array shelficemass to init_varia, initialise
224        from array shelficemassinit, which is set in init_fixed and
225        has option to be set from file; introduce array
226        shelficeMassDynTend array, set thru file in init_fixed
227      - NEW FILE: shelfice_step_icemass.F: update shelficemass from either
228        shelfIceFreshWaterFlux and shelficeMassDynTend or H_streamice in
229        pkg/streamice
230      - shelfice_thermodynamics.F: call shelfice_step_icemass if
231        SHELFICEMassStepping = .true.
232      - shelfice_ad_diff.list: add new subroutine shelfice_step_icemass.f
233    
234    checkpoint65h (2014/12/17)
235    o verification/global_ocean.90x40x15, global_ocean_ebm:
236      - update to generic controls.
237    o pkg/ctrl:
238      - ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F: test for igen>0
239      - ctrl_init_variables.F: add call to CTRL_MAP_INI_GENTIM2D.
240      - move gentim2d part of ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F to
241        new separate routine : ctrl_map_ini_gentim2d.F
242      - ctrl_cost_driver.F,ctrl_init.F ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F:
243        add time variable weights and cyclic controls (time mean,
244        seasonal cycle, etc) capabilities to gentim2d
245    o pkg/ecco:
246      - move reading of error, conversion to weights from
247        ecco_cost_init_fixed.F to ecco_toolbox.F (ecco_readwei)
248    o global_oce_llc90, cs32:
249      - activte sbo.
250      - CTRL_SIZE.h : add maxCtrlProc.
251      - activate the new genctrl capabilities.
252      - update following reorganization of global_oce_input_fields.tar.gz  
253    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_ad_diff.list:
254      - add missing ctrl_init_rec.f
255    o tools/OAD_support/keepOriginal:
256      - add ctrl_init_rec.F
257    o model/src/the_main_loop.F, pkg/ctrl/ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F:
258      - avoid recomputations of xx_gentim2d_dummy.
259    o momentum diagnostics:
260      - move filling of diagnostics Um_Diss & Vm_Diss from mom_fluxform.F and
261        mom_vecinv.F to timestep.F (to include Smag-3D contribution).
262    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F:
263      - fix computation of BU/BV, make sure they are non-zero, only necessary
264        for cubed sphere exchanges and SEAICE_OLx/y>0.
265        This makes calling s/r fill_cs_corner_rl obsolete (removed).
266    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.seaice
267      - add test for strong implicit coupling and restricted addtive Schwarz
268        methods for LSR
269      - update results/output.seaice.txt
270    o verification/tutorial_global_oce_biogeo:
271      - AD & OAD set-up: switch off ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX (like in fwd set-up)
272        and set PTRACERS_EvPrRn(1,2) to zero (for DIC & ALK);
273        update output_adm,_oadm,_tlm.txt
274    o pkg/dic:
275      - change default to "#undef ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX" in DIC_OPTIONS.h
276      - add a stop when ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX is defined and PTRACERS_EvPrRn
277        for tracer 1 & 2 is set (to avoid double counting of dilution effect).
278    o verification/tutorial_global_oce_biogeo:
279      - AD & OAD set-up: do not set PTRACERS_EvPrRn for tracer 1 & 2 since
280        dilution is already added by pkg/dic ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX ;
281        update output_adm,_oadm,_tlm.txt
282    o eesupp/src:
283      - add fill_cs_corner_rl.F (_RL-copy of fill_cs_corner_rs.F)
284        and call it in seaice_lsr when using nonzero SEAICE_OLx/y
285    o pkg/seaice: introduce strongly implicit coupling, intended for stabilizing
286      LSR (following Hutchings et al. 2004)
287      - introduce zetaZ as a global variable (requires adjustments in
288        seaice_evp.F and seaice_jfnk.F) and compute analoguously to etaZ
289        in seaice_calc_viscosities.F
290      - new flag SEAICEuseStrImpCpl (default off)
291      - add new terms zetaZ*du/dy and zetaZ*dv/dx on both sides of the
292        momentum equations
293      - JFNK-solver (preconditioner) adjusted to allow using this method
294        (where it does not have any positive effect)
295    o pkg/seaice
296      - add overlap for restrictive additive Schwartz method also to LSR, but
297        turn it off by default (because it only seems to work for non-cubed
298        sphere/llc topologies)
299    o pkg/autodiff
300      - add extra exchanges in addummy_in_steppging also for mnc output
301    o pkg/seaice:
302      - add extra exchanges before dumping adjoint fields in seaice_ad_dump.F
303        to avoid stripes in the adjoint output (similar to addummy_in_stepping.F)
304    o pkg/obcs:
305      - add option to specify domain-connected piece Id along OB though files
306        (for now, only used to diagnose PhiVel; default =1 -> global correction)
307      - modify obcs_diag_balance.F to process each connected-part separately;
308        exclude OB where Id = 0 but keep the full divergence there (-> constant
309        Psi along this portion of OB and all inflow derived from grad(Phi))
310      - add example of OB-conect files in verification/so_box_biogeo/input.
311    o pkg/diagnostics:
312      - improve treatment of Open-Boundaries in Velocity-Potential calculation:
313      a) use non zero matrix element across OB and solve for Phi 1 grid point
314         outside OB (i.e, where tracer OBCS are applied).
315      b) global imbalance of inFlow/outFlow across OB: instead of modifying
316         velocity across OB, spread it uniformly along the OB in the RHS.
317    
318    checkpoint65g (2014/11/19)
319    o pkg/diagnostcis:
320      - add preconditioner off-diagonal factor (diagCG_pcOffDFac) as run-time param
321    o pkg/my82,pp81,kl10:
322      - fix ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR implementation (previously had no effect): use 3-D
323        field diffKr as background diffusivity to set minimum diffusivity value.
324    o pkg/seaice:
325      - add new parameter SEAICEuseEVPrev (for revisited EVP by
326        Bouillon et al 2013)
327      - add SEAICE_evpAlpha/Beta to namelist
328      - modify seaice_evp code to able to use SEAICEuseEVPrev. These changes
329        involve trivial re-ordering of divisions/multiplications that should not
330        have any effects, but ... they do change the results of lab_sea.hb87 so
331        that only 2 digits of agreement remain, in line with the general
332        instability/fragility of the evp-code. For now, I do not care and just
333        update the verification experiment
334    o pkg/ctrl : add generic pre-processing (xx_genarr2d_preproc etc)
335      - remove xx_genarr2d_numsmooth etc
336      - use xx_genarr2d_preproc etc instead
337      - carry out smooth_correl2D at initialization stage rather than during
338        time stepping.
339      - get smoothOpNb from xx_gentim2d_preproc
340    o global_oce_cs32 :
341      - add test of generic ecco capabilities.
342    o pkg/exf/exf_getsurfacefluxes.F :
343      - add to tmpUE/tmpVN rather than re-initializing them (conventional behavior).
344    o pkg/ctrl,ecco :
345      - omit un-necessary arguments to ctrl_cost_gen.F unless ECCO_CTRL_DEPRECATED
346        is defined.
347    o pkg/seaice: add diagnostics for Delta (deformation parameter)
348    o model/src:
349      - when ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR is defined, add a Warning if any of the vertical
350        diffusivity (background) is specified but ignored.
351    o verification:
352      - in testreport, convert hostname to lower case for default output dir name
353    o model, pkg : add useCTRL, useECCO parameters (on/off run time switch).
354    o pkg/dic: add modifications from Hajoon:
355      - add iron sedimentation flux function of the flux of PO4 out of bottom layer
356      - light attenuation: add self-shading effect by climatological Chlorophyll
357        (read from file).
358    o pkg/seaice/seaice_preconditioner.F : fix cpp flags, so that code also
359        compiles when SEAICE_ALLOW_DYNAMICS is undefined
360    o global_oce_llc90,cs32 : ecco_v4 verification exps now use separate
361        AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, CTRL_OPTIONS.h, ECCO_OPTIONS.h rather than
362        ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h (i.e. replacing the deprecated, circumvoluted,
363        approach where CPP_OPTIONS.h includes an omnipotent
364        ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h that superseeds pkgs '_OPTIONS.h').
365    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F : include GMREDI_OPTIONS.h where
366        ALLOW_3D_KAPGM, ALLOW_3D_KAPREDI (to be added later) belong.
367    o pkg/seaice/SEAICE_SIZE.h : replace ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC with ALLOW_AUTODIFF
368        to avoid needing AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h anytime SEAICE_SIZE.h is included
369        (it seems that THSICE_SIZE.h, PTRACERS_SIZE.h have the same issue...)
370    o model/src, pkg/smooth, profiles, salt_plume, seaice, exf, ecco, ctrl :
371      add ECCO_OPTIONS.h, AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, CTRL_OPTIONS.h when needed
372      - ECCO_OPTIONS.h is needed when including ecco_cost.h, ecco.h
373      - AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h is needed when including tamc.h, tamc_keys.h
374      - CTRL_OPTIONS.h is needed when including ctrl.h, optim.h, etc
375    o pkg/ctrl,ecco,exf :
376      - remove variables associated with NON-generic costs,
377        unless ECCO_CTRL_DEPRECATED is defined.
378      - remove NON-generic NON-obcs controls,
379        unless ECCO_CTRL_DEPRECATED is defined.
380    o pkg/ctrl : added ctrl_local_params.h
381    o pkg/ecco : added ecco_local_params.h
382    o verification : added ECCO_CTRL_DEPRECATED to most as and oad
383        experiments, which will progressively be removed once the
384        experiments are revised to use only generic controls/costs.
385    
386    checkpoint65f (2014/10/13)
387    o pkg/ctrl, ecco, seaice : minor changes in headers
388    o global_oce_llc90,cs32 : ecco_v4 verification exps now test generic
389        cost function and control capabilities added since checkpoint65c.
390    o pkg/ctrl: regroup all obcs ctrl variables in CTRL_OBCS.h.
391    o pkg/ecco: increase modularity and improve logic
392      - ecco_toolbox.F (new) : basic operations that are often used,
393        including ecco_zero, ecco_cp, ecco_cprsrl, ecco_diffmsk,
394        ecco_addcost, ecco_add, ecco_div, ecco_readbar.
395      - cost_gencal.F (new) : determine filnames and records.
396      - cost_genread.F, cost_generic.F : condense code using ecco_toolbox.
397      - cost_generic.F : use spzeroloc rather than hard-coded -9999,
398        and exploit the above functions leading to more compact code.
399      - cost_genread.F : rm un-necessary arguments, re-arrange args order.
400      - ecco_check.F, ecco_readparms.F : bring logic up to date (using_tpj,
401        using_ers, using_gfo, using_mdt is now only defined within gencost)
402    o pkg/ecco: extend generic cost capabilities
403      - pkg/ecco : added 3D gencost (ALLOW_GENCOST3D), added gencost
404        capabilities via gencost_preproc (+ _c,_i,_r related params),
405        gencost_posproc (+ _c,_i,_r related params), gencost_nrecperiod,
406        gencost_outputlevel arguments to cost_generic
407      - pkg/ecco/cost_genread.F (new) : interface between cost_generic
408        and active_read, making room for gencost_preproc to take effect.
409        Added preproc code ('climmon') to replace GENERIC_BAR_MONTH.
410      - pkg/ecco/cost_generic.F :
411        compute and store misfit maks*(model-data) in localdif that is
412        then used in cost and for output, output misfit if outlev.GT.0
413      - pkg/ecco/cost_averagesfields.F : depend on gencost_barskip
414        rather gencost_barfile for deciding whether to write barfile
415      - pkg/ecco/ecco_cost_driver.F : extract call to cost_profiles from cost_hyd
416      - pkg/ecco/ecco_cost_init_fixed.F : extract gencost weights from
417        ecco_cost_weights, re-activate ecco_summary, determine gencost_barskip
418      - pkg/ecco/ecco_summary.F : report gencost variables
419      - pkg/ecco/cost_gencost_customize.F : treat case of scatterometer costs
420    o pkg/sea/SEAICE_OPTIONS.h : add ALLOW_COST_ICE, ALLOW_SEAICE_COST_SMR_AREA
421    o pkg/ecco: internal re-organization
422      - resolve un-necessary dependancies within pkg/ecco and to pkg/ctrl
423        (rm includes of optim.h and ctrl.h, replace optimcycle with eccoiter,
424        mv relevant variables definition from ecco_cost.h to ecco.h,
425        make sure gencost routines only include ecco.h)
426      - throughout : add missing CCP switches, rm unused variables,
427        and rm un-necessary CPP switches
428      - throughout gencost routines : replace modelstartdate with
429        gencost_startdate when needed
430      - cost_bp_read.F : use arguments, instead of common blocs
431        so that it can be used also by (new) cost_gencost_bpv4.F
432      - ecco_init_varia.F : initialize RHOsumGlob_0, VOLsumGlob_0
433      - ecco_phys.F : compute etanFull
434      - ecco_readparms.F : rename using_topex as using_tpj, add
435        bpv4-grace to gencost list, initialize added parameters
436      - ecco_summary.F : include SIZE.h needed for augmented ecco.h
437    
438    checkpoint65e (2014/09/28)
439    o pkg/obcs:
440      - replaced the just-added CPP options with run-time variables
441        (see pkg/obcs/OBCS_PARAMS.h for details)
442    o pkg/obcs:
443      - add additional CPP options for sponge boundary layers
444        (see pkg/obcs/OBCS_OPTIONS.h for details)
445    o pkg/atm_phys:
446      - implement simple (obliquity only, assuming circular planet orbit)
447        seasonal cycle for incoming insolation ; used when run-time parameter
448        "select_incSW" is set to 1 ; by default (=0), uses old unchanged formula.
449    o pkg/exf, pkg/ecco, pkg/ctrl:
450      - add ctrlUseGen and .NOT.ctrlUseGen exclusive brackets
451      - activate gentim2d for xx_atemp,xx_aqh,xx_swdown,xx_lwdown,xx_precip
452      - implement gentim2d for xx_tauu, xx_tauv
453    o pkg/ctrl, pkg/ecco :
454      - fix and complement the generic controls implementation
455    o pkg/exf/exf_getclim.F, exf_getffields.F, exf_getsurfacefluxes.F,
456        pkg/shelfice/shelfice_thermodynamics.F,
457        verification/hs94.1x64x5/code_ad/ctrl_map_gentim2d.F,
458        verification/hs94.1x64x5/code_oad/ctrl_map_gentim2d.F :
459      - add weight in CTRL_GET_GEN calls
460    o pkg/ctrl :
461      - ctrl_get_gen.F : add weight as input parameter, and apply
462        it directly rather than using smooth_correl2Dw (to be retired).
463      - ctrl_map_gentim2d.F : add wgentim2d in CTRL_GET_GEN call
464    o pkg/ctrl :
465      - introduce run time switch ctrlUseGen (in ctrl.h, ctrl_check.F,
466        ctrl_init_variables.F, ctrl_readparms.F, ctrl_summary.F)
467      - re-activate ctrl_summary (call in ctrl_init.F)
468    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_cost_gen.F :
469      - fix CCP brackets, remove un-necessary myiter, mytime
470    o pkg/ecco, pkg/ctrl :
471      - remove cost_genctrl.F (now pkg/ctrl/ctrl_cost_driver.F)
472      - remove cost_forcing_gen.F (now pkg/ctrl/ctrl_cost_gen2d.F)
473      - add ctrl_cost_driver.F (replaces pkg/ecco/cost_genctrl.F)
474      - add ctrl_cost_gen2d.F (replaces pkg/ecco/cost_forcing_gen.F)
475    
476    checkpoint65d (2014/09/15)
477    o pkg/ctrl/CTRL_GENARR.h, ctrl_readparms.F :
478      - add xx_genarr2d_bounds,xx_genarr3d_bounds,
479        xx_genarr2d_numsmooth, xx_genarr3d_numsmooth
480    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F :
481      - remove compilation failure
482      - replace hard coded example
483      - use ctrl_map_ini_gen2D, 3D
484    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_pack.F, ctrl_unpack.F :
485      - on/off switch based upon xx_genarr2d_weight,3d
486    o src/packages_init_variables.F :
487      - regroup pkg/estimation calls
488      - remove CTRL_MAP_INI, CTRL_MAP_INI_ECCO
489        (moved to ctrl_init_variables)
490    o cost/cost_init_varia.F :
491      - remove ecco_cost_init_varia
492        (moved to ecco_init_varia)
493    o ctrl/ctrl_init_variables.F :

495      - add CTRL_MAP_INI_GENARR, SEAICE_CTRL_MAP_INI
496    o ctrl/ctrl_map_ini.F :
497      - remove ctrl_map_ini_genarr, seaice_ctrl_map_ini
498        (moved to ctrl_init_variables)
499    o ctrl/ctrl_map_ini_ecco.F :
500      - remove ECCO_PHYS (mv to ecco_init_varia)
501      - remove seaice_ctrl_map_ini (mv to ctrl_init_variables)
502    o ecco/ecco_ad_diff.list :
503      - add ecco_init_varia.f
504    o ecco/ecco_init_varia.F
505      - new routine
506    o pkg/streamice:
507      - move call to STREAMICE_INITIALIZE_PETSC from the_model_main.F
508        to streamice_init_fixed.F ; fix setting of STREAMICEisOn.
509      - from model/src, only call pkg/streamice routines if useStreamIce is TRUE.
510    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
511      - fix bug causing negatives in GAD_SMOLARKIEWICZ_HACK, introduced 8/8/2014.
512    o pkg/exf:
513      - exf_getffields.F : add xxg_atemp, xxg_aqh, xxg_swdown, xxg_lwdown,
514         xxg_precip capability
515      - exf_wind.F : no need for ALLOW_WSPEED_CONTROL cpp switch
516    o pkg/ctrl:
517      - ctrl_pack.F, ctrl_unpack.F : omit (un)packing of undefined xx_gentim2d
518    o model/src/load_fields_driver.F :
519      - move call to CTRL_MAP_GENTIM2D ahead of BULKF_FIELDS_LOAD, EXF_GETFORCING
520        so xx_gentim2d can be applied to e.g. exf fields in a timely manner.
521    o OpenAD verification experiments:
522      - Include explicitly AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, COST_OPTIONS.h, and CTRL_OPTIONS.h
523        in src files (to enable to skip the ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h);
524        for now, only in pkgs used in OpenAD verification experiments.
525      - Change all except one (halfpipe_streamice) OpenAD experiments to use pkg
526        specific option file (AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, COST_OPTIONS.h & CTRL_OPTIONS.h)
527        instead of using ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h (with all relevant options in it).
528        This applies to both TAF (*/code_ad/) and OpenAD (*/code_oad/) tests.
529    o OpenAD verification tests:
530      - finish removing ALLOW_AUTODIFF_OPENAD (replaced by ALLOW_OPENAD);
531      - finish replacing ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC by ALLOW_AUTODIFF (except for
532        tape/storage which are specific to TAF/TAMC) in pkgs used in OpenAD exp.
533      - leave ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC undef in OpenAD verification tests (*/code_oad/)
534        and remove local copy of "tamc.h" (needed only if ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC).
535    o model/src & generic_advdiff:
536      - change hard-coded loop-range in S/R APPLY_FORCING_T/S to set T & S
537        forcing over 0:sNx+1, 0:sNy=1 (instead of just 1:sNx,1:sNy): Model
538        dynamics requires valid tracer forcing only over tile interior but, for
539        some diagnostics, may need to extend it over 1 point in tile halo region.
540      - in gad_calc_rhs.F, update calls to gmredi_x/ytransport to get valid
541        tendency over i,j_Min,Max range. This allows to simplfy i,j_Min,Max
542        setting in temp/salt/ptracer_integrate.F
543    o pkg/dic:
544      - multiply tracer tendencies by maskInC (if ussing OBCS) before updating
545        gchem tracers: this allows to skip the 2nd call to OBCS_APPLY_PTRACER
546        in gchem_forcing_sep.F
547    o pkg/autodiff & obcs:
548      - add storage of current OB values for U & V (was already done for T & S).
549    
550    checkpoint65c (2014/08/30)
551    o pkg/dic:
552      - take out of dic_atmos.F the initialisation part (corresponding to istate=0)
553        and move it to new S/R DIC_INI_ATMOS ; also simplify the dependencies for
554        AD compilers (but still a Pb with multi-threading and Ajoint dependencies).
555    o verification:
556      - new experiment testing OBCS and DIC pkgs, using params & output from
557        tutorial_global_oce_biogeo but limited to a sub-domain around Drake
558        passage: take OBCS from the last year of a 2 yrs simulation and initial
559        conditions from t=1.yr while keeping the same forcing.
560    o model/src:
561      - when allowFreezing=T, only reset below freezing initial Temp to Tfreezing
562        (at any k) if checkIniTemp is not set to FALSE (default checkIniTemp=T).
563    o pkg/diagnostics (Stats-Diags):
564      - re-write S/R DIAGSTATS_CALC (more similar to TARGET_NEC_SX part) to:
565        a) refine region where stats are computed, excluding where arrhFac=0 ;
566        b) fix missing interior mask (use with OBCS) in 3-D fields statistics;
567        c) extend regional stats over the region edges (for U or V pt location).
568    o pkg/gchem:
569      - add a (2nd) call to OBCS_APPLY_PTRACER in gchem_forcing_sep.F (needed since
570        pkg/dic is currently changing/updating ptracers values beyond the OB).
571    o verification (hs94):
572      - convert Held & Suarez external_forcing.F (from hs94.cs, with Sigma-coords
573        bits) to apply_forcing.F and undef USE_OLD_EXTERNAL_FORCING in experiments
574        hs94.cs-32x32x5 and tutorial_held_suarez_cs ; also use the same version of
575        apply_forcing.F in 2D hs94 (fwd, ad & oad) but keep LatLon hs94 unchanged.
576    o pkg/ptracers:
577      - implement Adams-Bashforth on pTracers (instead of on tracer tendency),
578        switched on by setting PTRACERS_doAB_onGpTr=F (default set to doAB_onGtGs)
579      - change exp4 secondary test (input.nlfs) to test AB on T & S & pTracer
580        with AB-2 code (so that it get tested).
581    o model/src:
582      - allow to apply Adams-Bashforth on Temp & Salt (instead of on gT,gS)
583        with AB-2 code (previously only available with AB-3 code).
584        Also move the code (call to ADAMS_BASHFORTH S/R) form thermodynamics.F
585        to temp/salt_integrate.F (since the 2nd part of gt/sNm1 update is done
586        there, by calling CYCLE_AB_TRACER).
587    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
588      - change Tracer argument (drop bi,bj indices) in S/R GAD_CALC_RHS,
589        GAD_C2_ADV_R, GAD_U3_ADV_R, GAD_C4_ADV_R, GAD_DIFF_R, GAD_BIHARM_R
590        + also in GMREDI_X/Y/RTRANSPORT ; and update corresponding calls in
591        S/R temp/salt/ptracers_integrate.F
592    o model/src & pkg/ptracers:
593      - remove common block variables gT,gS (in DYNVARS.h), except when
594         USE_OLD_EXTERNAL_FORCING is defined; update TAF storage accordingly.
595      - remove common block variable gPtr.
596    o model/src & pkgs:
597      - change gTracer (and/or tracer) argument (drop bi,bj indices) in S/R
598         ADAMS_BASHFORTH(2&3), CYCLE_(AB_)TRACER, FREESURF_RESCALE_G,
599         IMPLDIFF, SOLVE_TRIDIAGONAL & _PENTADIAGONAL, GAD_SOM_ADVECT,
600         GAD_ADVECTION, GAD_CALC_RHS, GAD_IMPLICIT_R, TIMEAVE_CUMUL_DIF_1T
601      + change accordingly all calling S/R.
602      - use local temperature/salinity/ptracer tendency array (without bi,bj)
603        in S/R temp/salt/ptracers_integrate.F
604    o pkg/seaice:
605      - move computation of stress contributions to rhsU/V in s/r seaice_lsr
606        to separate s/r seaice_lsr_rhsu/v in order to be able to re-use code
607      - make u/vIceC local variables if SEAICE_CGRID is defined only to be used
608        in seaice_lsr
609      - seaice_lsr.F: make local 4D arrays UXX, VYY, etc 2D
610        in s/r seaice_lsr_calc_coeffs
611    o pkg/mdsio:
612      - in MDS_READ/WRITE_FIELD, stop if file-name (+prefix) is too long
613        (e.g., > MAX_LEN_MBUF -90 ) or, in INI_MODEL_IO, if mdsioLocalDir is
614        too long (e.g., > MAX_LEN_FNAM/2 )
615    
616    checkpoint65b (2014/08/12)
617    o pkg/matrix:
618      - pass, as argument, updated tracer field to S/R MATRIX_STORE_TENDENCY_EXP
619    o model/src:
620      - fix initialisation of geothermalFile; compile geothermal-flux code in
621        natl_box verification experiment.
622    o model/src & pkg/down_slope:
623      - push the k loop inside S/R TIMESTEP_TRACER (now called outside the k loop).
624      - in dwnslp_apply.F, update tracer tendency instead of the future tracer
625        field and call S/R DWNSLP_APPLY before TIMESTEP_TRACER; this affects
626        results at machine truncation level: update output of experiments
627        global_ocean.90x40x15.dwnslp (FWD) and lab_sea.noseaicedyn (AD).
628    o pkg/diagnostics (Stats-Diags):
629      - do not cumulate the full volume when DIAGNOSTICS_FILL is
630        called with bibjFlg < 0 (no increment of the counter for 2D/3D diag);
631        This fix the mean statistics when DIAGNOSTICS_FILL is called multiple
632        times (but Min,Max and StD are still wrong).
633    o model/src:
634      - add geothermal flux forcing: read in ini_forcing.F as time-constant
635        field "geothermalFlux" applied in S/R APPLY_FORCING_T (apply_forcing.F)
636    o model/src:
637      - move CYCLE_TRACER calls from tracers_correction_step.F to temp/salt/ptracer
638        _integrate.F so that, when leaving S/R THERMODYANMICS, theta,salt and pTrac
639        arrays are already updated while adjustments (filters, conv.adjustment) are
640        still applied later, in S/R TRACERS_CORRECTION_STEP.
641    o model/src:
642      - store in common bloc array "rhoInSitu" the virtual potential temperature
643        anomaly that is used to compute geopotential: this make the atmos code
644        more similar to ocean code which already uses rhoInSitu in calc_phi_hyd.F
645    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F
646      - rename integer variable ilcall to ipass (that's what it is called
647        in the residual diagnostics
648      - change time stepping for NPSEUDOTIMESTEP > 2 (does not change the
649        default) for improved non-linear convergence of the first few steps
650      - adjust a few comments and add new ones to explain some of the store
651        directives
652    o pkg/generic_advdiff (& ptracers):
653      - re-work the code to check for valid advection scheme and for minimum
654        size of overlap (now stored in local common bloc in gad_advscheme.F)
655    o pkg/seaice: another attempt to make the adjoint work for sea ice dynamics
656      - re-initialize more variables in seaice_lsr: u/vIceC, u/vIceNm1
657      - add an auxilliary variable "bet" and fix store directives and keys in
658        seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v, this seems to do the trick (i.e. more or
659        less exact gradients in my tests); but there are still
660        recomputation warning (although gradients are sort of OK), when
661        SEAICE_LSR_VECTORIZE is not defined, so this flag and
662        SEAICE_LSR_VECTORIZE_ZEBRA are recommended for efficiency.
663      - update verification experiments lab_sea.
664      - change some comments in S/R seaice_calc_viscosities
665    o model/src:
666      - if staggerTimeStep=T, always apply exchange to velocity field in
667        do_stagger_fields_exchanges.F instead of in do_fields_blocking_exchanges.F
668        (independent of using multi-dim advection or not); no effect on FWD run
669        but affects AD results (at machine truncation level): update output of
670        experiment 1D_ocean_ice_column (ad: 12 digits), hs94.1x64x5 (ad,oad: 13.d)
671        and isomip (oad: 12.d).
672    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
673      - stop if doAB_onGtGs is set to FALSE but ignored
674      - refine warning related to stability of tracer time-stepping
675        regarding internal wave dynamics.
676      - setting of AdamsBashforth_T,S when doAB_onGtGs=F: remove condition
677        on staggerTimeStep & implicitIntGravWave (will now get a warning
678        if potentially unstable).
679    o pkg/kl10:
680      - add new pkg "kl10" for mixing due to internal wave breaking, from

682        (contribution from Jody Klymak), tested in verification experiment
683        verification/internal_wave/input.kl10/
684    o isomip experiment:
685      - test pkg/shelfice with Non-Lin Free-Surf in one of the FWD set-up
686        (input.htd) and update the output.
687    o cd_code experiments:
688      - use default cd_code options (#undef CD_CODE_NO_AB_MOMENTUM &
689        #undef CD_CODE_NO_AB_CORIOLIS) in experiments: cfc_example (fwd)
690        global_ocean.90x40x15 (ad & oad) and OpenAD (ad & oad) and
691        update the corresponding output.
692    o pkg/seaice:
693      - reduce the number of include files and store directives in
694        S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
695      - change the order of loops in one case in S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagv
696        (only for SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA defined), which allows me to
697        get rid off one store directive (a TAF bug?)
698      - add one more instance of ifdef SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA in
699        S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagv to change the loop range for consistency
700      - remove ilcall, m from parameter list of S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
701      - fix a bug that affects the JFNK solver: replace sNx/y by i/jMax in
702        S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v (requires update of
703        offline_exf_seaice/input.dyn_jfnk)
704    
705    checkpoint65a (2014/07/27)
706    o model/src:
707      - Non-Lin Free-Surf in p/z coords: allows hFacW,S to be larger than
708        surrounding hFacC=1 @ edge of a step with different kSurfC on either side
709        (topo in p-coords, ice-shelf in z-coords); update output of experiments
710        tutorial_global_oce_in_p and isomip (both AD and OpenAD output).
711    o model/src:
712      - collect momentum forcing tendency into local 2-D array (passed as argument
713        to apply_forcing S/R); this simplifies mom. Forcing diagnostics and CD_CODE
714        parts in timestep.F (without CD_CODE_NO_AB_MOMENTUM defined = the default);
715        affects results at machine truncation level (e.g., if using OBCS_SPONGE).
716      - collect T & S forcing tendency into local 2-D array (passed as argument to
717        apply_forcing S/R); add 3-D diagnostics for temp & salt forcing tendency.
718        affects results at machine truncation level (e.g., ocean: if using
719        SHORTWAVE_HEATING ; atmos: if using FrictionHeating or (atm_Rq<>0) moist
720        correction due to vertical advection).
721      - update output of experiments: fizhi-cs-32x32x40 (13 digits),
722        global_ocean.cs32x15 (fwd: icedyn, seaice, thsice, all 3 @ 11d; adm & tml:
723        seaice_dynmix & thsice, fwd grd @ 3 & 8), hs94.1x64x5 (ad grd @ 13),
724        obcs_ctrl (ad & fwd grd @ 12 & 7).
725    o pkg/ptracers & diagnostics:
726      - use ptracers (short) name (instead of long one) to make ptracers diagnostics
727        title (to avoid some unexpected truncation); sort out ptracers diags units.
728      - collect ptracer forcing tendency into local 2-D array (passed as argument
729        to apply_forcing S/R); add 3-D diagnostics for ptracers forcing tendency.
730    
731    checkpoint65 (2014/07/18)
732    o pkg/fizhi:
733      - add parenthesis around fizhi tendencies in fizhi_tendency_apply.F: this
734        affects results at machine truncation level. Update output of experiments
735        fizhi-cs-32x32x40 (12 digits for cg2d) & fizhi-cs-aqualev20 (13 digits).
736    o pkg/seaice: more clean up
737      - rename TAF common block tapes to be more consistent and remove
738        unnecessary duplicates
739      - add store directives to remove more recomputations, but use smaller
740        tapes (and adjust keys) when SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER is undefined.
741        The idea behind this flag is to reduce the memory footprint when the
742        adjoint of the LSR is not required. As of now, defining the flag
743        SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER increases 4 common block tapes for 2D field by
744        a factor of SOLV_MAX_FIXED (=500 by default in SEAICE_SIZE.h).
745        For experiment offline_exf_seaice, this means on a linux box with gfortran
746        nearly a factor of 10 (but keep in mind there is mostly seaice code in
747        this experiment):
748        > size mitgcmuv_ad
749        text    data        bss     dec        hex
750        5100659 1216  220458952  225560827  d71c8fb
751        5339425 1200 1868783272 1874123897 6fb4dc79 (SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER)
752        but only a moderate increase of 36% for global_ocean.cs32x15:
753        text    data        bss     dec        hex
754        6695027 1648 1014578664 1021275339 3cdf6ccb
755        6695203 1648 1382505320 1389202171 52cd8afb (SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER)
756      - note: there are still recomputations in global_ocean.cs32x15 and
757        offline_exf_seaice and the gradient agreement changes (gets a
758        little worse) for global_ocean.cs32x15 (-> update output_adm.seaice.txt)
759      - in general, the AD gradients still are wrong
760    o OpenAD
761      - clean up code_oad/ directories somewhat by moving files
762        dontCompile, dontTransform, keepOriginal to OAD_support/
763    o model/src:
764      - using MOM fluxform and Non-Lin Free-Surf with momDissip_In_AB=F
765        (not currently tested): add dissipation terms before NLFS rescaling of
766        tendencies (previously done after).
767    o pkg/diagnostics:
768      - write stats-diags in ascii file with more digits (same as in monitor).
769    o pkg/down_slope:
770      - drop the bi,bj dimension of argument recip_hFac in S/R DWNSLP_APPLY; with
771        NLFS (not tested), use new recip_hFac value in order to conserve tracer.
772    o model/src:
773      - new file "apply_forcing.F" containing all the code previously in
774        external_forcing.F, but with new argument list: pass, as new argument,
775        the current level tendency array to update (instead of a direct update
776        of the common bloc array). Change the corresponding calls.
777      - add CPP option USE_OLD_EXTERNAL_FORCING (default is undef) to use
778        EXTERNAL_FORCING_U,V,T,S subroutines (for backward compatibility).
779    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr, a little bit of clean up
780      - rearrange some code blocks, so that now all calculations for
781        setting up the right-hand-sides done within one single block
782        (I find that easier to read and understand)
783      - rearrange freedrift-code to reduce the number of ifdefs
784      - adjust some indentations and comments
785    
786    checkpoint64z (2014/07/10)
787    o model/src and several pkgs:
788      - change argument list of all S/R called from external_forcing.F and
789        called from ptracers_forcing.F (renamed to ptracers_apply_forcing.F)
790        to pass, as argument, the current level tendency array to update
791        (instead of a direct update of the common bloc array).
792      - change also (in the same way) argument list of PTRACERS_APPLY_FORCING;
793      - rename taueddy_external_forcing.f to taueddy_tendency_apply.F
794    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F
795      - always initialize local arrays in seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
796      - add more local tapes to seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
797      - move storing u/vice(:,:,bi,bj) out of seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v, but
798        keep it in bi/bj loop; this seems to be essential
799      - gradients are still wrong but only by 4-7 orders of magnitude
800        instead of 15 orders of magnitude, lab_sea improves a little
801    o pkg/seaice
802      - (pkg/autodiff) remove storing/restoring of seaiceMaskU/V that
803        generates unnecessary code in seaice_lsr_ad
804      - add more store directives in seaice_lsr to avoid unnecessary code
805        in seaice_lsr_ad
806      - exclude some residual computations in seaice_lsr when
807        ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC is defined in order to avoid unnecessary code
808        in seaice_lsr_ad
809      - add more storing, a new tape (model/src/the_main_loop.F) and
810        another key for SEAICE_LSR_VECTORIZE_ZEBRA (the local keys ilockey
811        and klockey should be checked by a specialist)
812      - modify ( define SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR and SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER )
813        and update lab_sea after previous changes in pkg/seaice below
814    o pkg/autodiff:
815      - introduce useSmoothCorrel2DinAdMode, SEAICEapproxLevInAd, and
816        viscFacInAd : run time parameters allowing for adjoint switches
817        note : logic for useSmoothCorrel2DinAdMode is in ctrl_readparms.F
818    o pkg/ecco:
819      - introduce cost_gencost_boxmean.F that computes a box mean
820        temperature (for use in adjoint sensitivity studies).
821    o model/src/set_defaults.F : initialize viscFacAdj to 1.
822    o pkg/mom_common/mom_calc_visc.F:
823      - ifdef ALLOW_AUTODIFF then include viscFacAdj factor.
824    o pkg/seaice/seaice_summary.F:
825      - statement for SEAICEadjMODE now in autodiff_readparms.F
826    o pkg/seaice:
827      - remove some store directives and add new ones in an effort to get
828        finally rid off the recomputation warnings. This is successful
829        when SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR ***and*** SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER are
830        defined (i.e. no extensive recomputation warnings left), but there
831        are still too many recomputations on the solver iteration level
832      - define SEAICE_VECTORISZE_LSR in offline_exf_seaice/code_ad/SEAICE_OPTIONS.h
833      - move definition of MPSEUDOTIMESTEPS into TAMC-block in
834        SEAICE_SIZE.h
835      - add a store directive in S/R seaice_calc_viscosities
836    o pkg/seaice (ITD code):
837      - fix definition of Hlimit for multi-threaded case
838      - use double precision arithmetic to compute Hlimit: this affects results;
839        update output of experiment seaice_itd.
840    o replace content of verification/seaice_itd
841      - instead of a 1D column use the configuration of offline_exf_seaice
842        to test the ice thickness distribution code with ridging
843      - this is a first shot at this experiment
844      - change of some defaults of ridging parameters SEAICEhStar (from
845        100 to 25) and SEAICEmuRidging (from 5 to 3) in seaice_readparms.F
846        and lot of new comments.
847    
848    checkpoint64y (2014/06/20)
849    o pkg/seaice/seaice_reg_ridge.F:
850      - modify the regularization of very small volumes of ice; only check
851        total volume HEFF, and do not apply correction to individual ice
852        classes because that leads to funny patterns in the heat and fw-fluxes
853        into the ocean. Adjust seaice_itd/results/output.txt
854      - replace nITD by SEAICE_multDim in loop-ranges
855    o pkg/exf:
856      - add code to process the case field period = -12. with UV interpolation.
857      - move debug print (formerly active when exf_verbose=T) from EXF_getFFieldRec
858        into S/R that calls it (i.e., exf_set_gen.F, exf_set_uv.F & obcs_exf_load.F)
859    o verification/global_with_exf:
860      - switch all fields period to -12. (was previously untested) in input/data.exf
861        (but keep secondary test ".yearly" unchanged); update the reference output.
862    o pkg/cal:
863      - new calendar type "noLeapYear" for 365 days calendar without any leap year.
864    o pkg/exf:
865      - new integer parameter "exf_debugLev" (default set to main model debugLevel)
866        to replace logical switch "exf_verbose"
867      - report in STDOUT when loading a new record (if exf_debugLev >= 3)
868    o pkg/sbo:
869      - update from Katherine Quinn: evaluate mass directly from density and SSH
870        (budget using Finite Volume method) instead of from bottom pressure.
871      - allow testreport to collect few selected SBO output ; tested in exp.
872        global_ocean.90x40x15 (after updating the results, to include SBO output).
873      - fix some multi-threading issues (in output part).
874    o model/src & most packages:
875      - always call {PKG}_READPARMS even if corresponding use{PKG}=F;
876      - in {PKG}_READPARMS, in case use{PKG}=F: add a call to new S/R
877        PACKAGES_UNUSED_MSG to print a weak warning when parameter file
878        "data.{pkg}" exist ; and leave the S/R (return) just after.
879      - more standard LAND pkg interface (land_init_fixed.F, land_check.F).
880        + call LAND_READPARMS from packages_readparms.F
881    o pkg/seaice:
882      - remove code that resets useThSice in S/R seaice_readparms and
883        replace it by a warning in S/R seaice_check
884      - remove parameter MULTDIM, replace with nITD and runtime
885        parameter SEAICE_multDim (still hard-wired to nITD if
886        SEAICE_ITD is defined)
887    
888    checkpoint64x (2014/05/24)
889    o verification/lab_sea:
890      - update adjoint and TLM output following changes to pkg/salt_plume
891      - un-do the update after putting back local recip_Cp in few places.
892    o pkg/salt_plume: modifications by An Nguyen:
893      - add capability to do brine rejection (salt-plume) as function of
894        volume+tracers (instead of only salinity tracer).
895      - conserve volume by exchanging volume from each kLev to above to
896        accommodate in-coming brine volume
897      - store surface and klev exchanged fraction + volume in 4 new 3-d arrays
898      - switch KPP surf buoyancy due to brine forcing to 3-d
899        (3 more 3-d arrays, 2 for SPforcing[T,S], 1 for boplume)
900      - add salt_plume_volfrac, salt_plume_apply, salt_plume_tendency_apply_t
901      - unrelatedly, also add ad-hoc capability to vary salt_plume scheme
902        in East/West Arctic.
903    o pkg/sbo:
904      - incorporate modifications from Katherine Quinn to enable the use of sbo
905        pkg in ECCO-v4 set-up ; remove SBO-TimeAve output ; add monitor-like
906        output for future testreport verification (unfinished).
907    o pkg/atm_phys:
908      - change diagnostics (AtPh_Trf & AtPh_Qrf) of DARGAN_BETTSMILLER S/R:
909        skip the reseting of t_ref & q_ref to initial t & q ; this preserve the
910        output of S/R CAPECALCNEW (Parcel temp & q) for diagnostics.
911    o pkg/seaice
912      seaice_calc_ice_strength.F: modify expression to avoid divisions
913        (affects truncation)
914      seaice_do_ridging.F: clean up the insectarium
915      - fix a bug that was compensated by areaScaling (-> remove areaScaling code)
916      - added SEAICEsnowFracRidge to redistributed snow (2nd bug)
917      - set closing/openingRate to zero where no extra iteration is need (3rd bug)
918      - add some debugging information and error messages (warnings)
919    o model/src: modifications relatd to atmosphere p*:
920      - Switch to more accurate p* coordinate slope term (calc_grad_phi_hyd.F)
921      - With p* or Sigma-P, use constant reference Pot.Temp (thetaConst) instead
922        of vertical profile tRef in geopotential background and anomaly.
923      - Acount for true p* correction in theta <-> T conversion in pkg/aim_v23
924        and pkg/atm_phys.
925      - Update FWD output of experiments: aim.5l_cs (x2), fizhi-cs-32x32x40,
926        fizhi-cs-aqualev20, fizhi-gridalt-hs, tutorial_held_suarez_cs, cpl_aim+ocn.
927    o pkg/seaice: fix a bug in seaice_prepare_ridging.F, forgot a sqrt
928    o pkg/ptracers: compute ptracer source/sink due to linear free surface.
929        not used right now, but can be used in BGC packages to fix conservation.
930    o pkg/dic, pkg/gchem: move tracer_meanarea to gchem, so it can be used by
931        other packages too.
932    o pkg/seaice/seaice_calc_ice_strength.F: replace SEAICE_rhoSnow by
933        SEAICE_rhoIce in the Rothrock (1975)-type strength calculations (bug fix)
934    o model/src:
935      - since we have several heat capacity (even in model/src), define "recip_Cp"
936        as local variable (no longer in common block) to avoid any confusion.
937      - add thetaConst in PARAMS.h (to be used with pStar or sigma-P coords).
938    o pkg/exf:
939      - from Jeff Scott: add option (#define EXF_CALC_ATMRHO) to calculate local
940        air density as function of air Temp, Humidity and atm pressure.
941    
942    checkpoint64w (2014/05/02)
943    o verification:
944      - update output_adm.txt files for experiment global_ocean.cs32x15 (seaice &
945        seaice_dynmix) and lab_sea (primary test & noseaicedyn): moving/changing
946        code from seaice_growth.F & seaice_advdiff.F to new ridging routines
947        seaice_reg_ridge.F seaice_do_ridging.F affects AD gradient
948        (down to 8-7 matching digits for global_ocean and 5-6 for lab_sea).
949    o model/src: for atmosphere in p* coords:
950      - store factor rStarFacC**atm_kappa (= pStarFacK) in common block
951      - implement more accurate p* coordinate slope term (in calc_grad_phi_hyd.F),
952        but not yet activated.
953    o pkg/seaice: fix restart problem for ITD with new ice strength parameterisation:
954      - move computation of opnWtrFrac = 1-AREA to before computing ice strength
955      - this changes the results (but not for any verification experiment, because
956        none tests this), but avoids having an extra field in the restart files
957    o pkg/seaice: remove global variable TICE (not needed)
958      - replace by TICES or local variable where necessary (cost_seaice_test,
959        seaice_diagnostics_state)
960      - move copying TICE to TICES from seaice_check_pickup to seaice_read_pickup
961      - use specific read/write routines for reading and writing individual leves
962        of a multilevel field
963    o pkg/ctrl & model/inc:
964      - move additional anomaly fields of control vars (related to options:
965         ALLOW_KAPGM_CONTROL, ALLOW_KAPREDI_CONTROL and ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG_CONTROL)
966        from DYNVARS.h into new header file: CTRL_FIELDS.h
967    o pkg/seaice: some small modifications to the ridging code
968      - make fw2ObyRidge a global variable and add the freshwater flux to
969        seaice_growth
970      - pass actual thickness from seaice_prepare_ridging, so that it is
971        computed only in one place and compute it in the same way as in
972        seaice_growth
973      - initialise more fields in seaice_do_ridging that where cause floating
974        point exceptions over land
975    o pkg/seaice: preparations for ridging code and first real ridging code
976      - move most of "PART 1" of S/R seaice_growth into a new and separate
977        S/R seaice_reg_ridge that will both regularize the state variable after
978        advection call the actual ridging routine;
979      - requires to make 5 fields global fields: d_HEFFbyNEG,d_HSNWbyNEG,
980        d_AREAbyRLX,d_HEFFbyRLX,saltFluxAdjust;
981      - remove ridging code from seaice_advdiff
982      - clean up remaining part 1 of seaice_growth in an attempt to make it
983        more readable (this is probably subjective)
984      - call seaice_itd_redist once in the initialisation phase to have the initial
985        conditions in the correct category
986      - finally: add new ridging routine for ITD code
987    
988    checkpoint64v (2014/04/11)
989    o pkg/ecco:
990      - add runtime parameters mdt[start,end]date[1,2]
991      - rename variable "tpmean" as "mdt" and "topexmeanfile" as "mdtdatfile"
992    o pkg/seaice:
993      - make deltaC a global variable, so that it can be used in ridging code
994      - first step towards ridging: introduce new routines that compute
995        ice strength based on ridging parameters
996      - add diagnostic for HSNOWITD
997      - add opnWtrFrac as a global variable (required for ridging scheme)
998    o pkg/salt_plume + pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F
999      - add SALT_PLUME_IN_LEADS flag to activate pkg/salt_plume only when ice
1000        AREA exceeds a threshold (code contributed by I.Fenty in 2011)
1001    o verification/hs94.1x64x5:
1002      - leave ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC undefined in code_oad/AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h
1003      - do not use ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h anymore for TAF & OpenAD Adjoint tests.
1004    o autodiff:
1005      - Start to include explicitly AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, COST_OPTIONS.h,
1006        and CTRL_OPTIONS.h in src files (to enable to skip the ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h)
1007        For now, only in pkgs used in verification/hs94.1x64x5.
1008      - Replace ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC by ALLOW_AUTODIFF (except for tape/storage
1009        which are specific to TAF/TAMC).
1010      - Replace ALLOW_AUTODIFF_OPENAD by ALLOW_OPENAD:
1011        since ALLOW_OPENAD is defined in PACKAGES_CONFIG.h (any time pkg/openad
1012        is compiled), this simplifies/reduces which *_OPTIONS.h file to include.
1013      - OpenAD: change Makefile to generate the appropriate AD_CONFIG.h when
1014        building mitgcmuv_ad (make adAll).
1015    o pkg/ecco:
1016      - cost_gencost_seaicev4.F:
1017         reformulate proxy cost as function of sst and local param SEAICE_freeze
1018         change cost names from siv4-[sst,vol] to siv4-[deconc,exconc]
1019      - add stop statement if old names siv4-[sst,vol] are used
1020      - add snapshots + cost reports for atmospheric longwave
1021      - remove factor 0.1 in front of wtau[u,v]
1022      - replace never used flag ALLOW_TMI_COST_CONTRIBUTION with
1023         ALLOW_TMI_SST_COST_CONTRIBUTION
1024    o pkg/atm_phys:
1025      - add some diagnostics for Short-wave and for convection S/R.
1026    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth:
1027      - fix a bug in the lateral melt parameterization for SEAICE_ITD
1028        in seaice_growth; tempFrz needs to be computed inside the i/j-loop
1029      - rearrange loop order for better vector code in the same code block
1030      - rewrite the floeDiameter formula to have fewer divisions
1031      -  (miraculously) none of this changes the results of seaice_itd
1032    o pkg/smooth:
1033      - move param smooth2Ddiffnbt to pkg/ecco
1034    o pkg/salt_plume:
1035      - salt_plume_frac.F:
1036         clean up local param names
1037         reformulate (1-frac) to frac; original 1-frac was based on swfrac code
1038    o pkg/rw:
1039      - add RS version of S/R READ_MFLDS_LEV.
1040    o pkg/streamice:
1041      - fix the restart test by writing/reading pickup_streamice files.
1042    o pkg/seaice:
1043      - refine checks for jfnk-related parameters
1044      - comment out if statement with SEAICEuseIMEX parameter as long as there
1045        is no IMEX code to avoid confusion and surprises
1046    
1047    checkpoint64u (2014/03/07)
1048    o verification/MLAdjust:
1049      - rename secondary test suffix:
1050         1.leith  -> A4FlxF  + switch to flux-form & add side-drag
1051         0.leithD -> AhFlxF  + switch to flux-form
1052         0.smag   -> AhVrDv  (use Vorticity-Div. visc form) + add side-drag
1053         0.leith  -> AhStTn  (use Strain-Tension visc form) + add side-drag
1054    o pkg/mom_vecinv:
1055      - remove unused arguments from S/R MOM_VI_HDISSIP & MOM_HDISSIP (as it used
1056        to be before mom_calc_visc.F)
1057      - skip the call to MOM_CALC_TENSION & MOM_CALC_STRAIN if not needed.
1058      - add 2nd copy of vort3 & strain that knows about lateral BC (free/no slip):
1059        this is simpler for the adjoint and for diagnostics.
1060    o model/src + pkg/momentum:
1061      - add input files for  2-D additional Western and Southern cell-edge wall
1062         (e.g., to add "thin-wall" where it is =1).
1063      - fix sideDrag option for thin-walls with Non-Lin Free-Surf
1064        using 2nd hFacZ that is computed from initial (fix domain) hFac
1065      - known limitations of thin wall implementation: not yet coded for sigma
1066        coords; not working with CD-scheme neither.
1067    o pkg/seaice:
1068      - rename recently introduced parameters from (wrong name) AB to
1069        BDF (backward difference time discretisation)
1070      - retire runtime parameters SEAICEuseAB2, SEAICE_abEps
1071    o tools/adjoint_options:
1072      - remove setting of "OPENAD=true" (now set by command line "genmake2 -oad")
1073    
1074    checkpoint64t (2014/02/01)
1075    o pkg/ecco
1076      - add compile flag ALLOW_GENCOST_TIMEVARY_WEIGHT in ECCO_OPTIONS.h and
1077        runtime logical flag gencost_timevaryweight to read daily sea-ice sigma
1078      - replace hard-coded record number and period which only work for monthly
1079        with read-in runtime param that works for other periods (month,day,year)
1080    o pkg/thsice
1081      - corrected store directive fixes thsice adjoint gradient checks
1082    o genmake2 & testreport:
1083      - add genmake2 option "-oad" to generate a Makefile for OpenAD built and
1084        in this case, use tools/adjoint_options/adjoint_oad as default AD optfile.
1085        Update testreport accordingly. No need to set "export OPENAD=true"
1086        in adjoint_options/adjoint_oad anymore (will be removed later).
1087    o pkg/shelfice:
1088      - put T & S shelfice forcing into model surfaceForcing_T,_S (for now,
1089        only if SHELFICEboundaryLayer=F); Change model/src/external_forcing.F
1090        so that surface forcing applies to k=kSurf if using pkg/shelfice.
1091    o pkg/ctrl, pkg/grdchk, pkg/ecco:
1092      - Changes to make GENARR more modular (i.e. invisible if not used)
1093    o model/src/temp_integrate.F and salt_integrate.F
1094      - re-include store directives that were removed on Dec 27th.
1095    o model/src/external_forcing_surf.F
1096      - add storage directives for EmPmR and PmEpR to avoid recomputation of
1097        seaice_model in the adjoint that is problematic when seaice_model is
1098        turned off in the adjoint. The resolved issue dated back to July when
1099        EXTERNAL_FORCING_SURF call was moved.
1100        Update global_ocean.cs32x15/*/output_adm.seaice_dynmix.txt accordingly.
1101    o pkg/exf/exf_check.F
1102      - fix a small bug again (originally found by Wentao Liu, now found again)
1103      - streamline error output
1104    o pkg/streamice and aim_v23:
1105      - replace a few "_EXCH_XY_RL (" with "_EXCH_XY_RL(", so that
1106        Apple's /usr/bin/cpp knows what to do:
1107        Apple LLVM version 5.0 (clang-500.2.79) (based on LLVM 3.3svn)
1108        Target: x86_64-apple-darwin13.0.0
1109    
1110    checkpoint64s (2014/01/05)
1111    o tools/adjoint_options:
1112      - switch to fastopt.net TAF server (instead of default fastopt.de) for
1113        AD optfiles adjoint_diva & adjoint_f95 (similar to adjoint_default).
1114    o model/src:
1115      - remove some unnecessary TAF storage directives in forward_step.F and
1116        in dynamics.F (note: not always removed by TAF, e.g., double storage
1117        of kappaRU,kappaRV in former version of dynamics.F).
1118    o model/src & pkg/ptracers:
1119      - call directly GAD_IMPLICIT_R & IMPLDIFF + DWNSLP_APPLY from temp_integrate.F
1120        salt_integrate.F and ptracers_integrate.F (instead of from thermodynamics.F)
1121        and remove ptracers_dwnslp_apply.F & ptracers_implicit.F
1122      - call MATRIX_STORE_TENDENCY_EXP for each tracer (in ptracers_integrate.F)
1123      - add fZon & fMer as output argument of S/R GAD_CALC_RHS.
1124      - update TAF AD-output of experiments global_ocean.90x40x15 (13 for AD-grad).
1125    o useSingleCpuInput separates single-CPU input from single-CPU output;
1126        for now only implemented for in exf_interp_read.F
1127    o verification/advect_xy:
1128      - fix missing EXCH call in local version of ini_salt.F and update output.
1129    o momentum diagnostics:
1130      - fix which deltaT is used in Total-Tendency diagnostics.
1131      - fix typo in diagnostics for momentum tendency from AB.
1132    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F: fix an initialisation bug for the
1133        SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA option that lead to NaNs on a NEC-SX8
1134    
1135    checkpoint64r (2013/12/08)
1136    o verification/*/results:
1137      - Update reference output of experiments that were passing with just 13 digits
1138         (make it easier to detect future changes in results)
1139    o model/src & pkg/ptracers:
1140      - move calls to GAD_ADVECTION (Multi-Dim advection) from thermodynamics.F to
1141        inside temp_integrate.F and salt_integrate.F and from ptracers_advection.F
1142        to inside ptracers_integrate.F ; remove ptracers_advection.F
1143    o coupling interface pkgs:
1144        [atm_compon_interf, ocn_compon_interf & atm_ocn_coupler]
1145      - change the config check to test the agreement of Ocean Depth
1146        with ATM land/sea mask (instead of ATM orography);
1147      - send to coupler the number of coupler time-steps to do for this run:
1148        this allows to check for consistency and don't need anymore to be
1149        specified in parameter file "data";
1150      in coupler:
1151      - check consistency of RunOff map versus Ocean Depth and ATM land/sea mask.
1152      - improve report to log-file of config setting (pass log-file unit to few S/R)
1153    o pkg/compon_communic:
1154      - add coupling send/receive for non-tiled integer vector;
1155      - add S/R to check and stop if any proc has an error (similar to
1156        eesupp/src/stop_if_error.F but single thread and across Comm_World).
1157    o pkg/exch2:
1158      - in exch2*_get_rx[1,2]: use new list "W2_tileIndex" to replace search
1159        through list of all tiles my proc owns.
1160    o model/src:
1161      - AUTODIFF only: in calc_adv_flow.F, recompute rTransKp (instead of copying
1162        from rTrans) to simplify dependencies (no need to store rTrans anymore in
1163        calling S/R); this affects AD results at machine truncation level:
1164        update AD-output (TAF) of experiments: 1D_ocean_ice_column,
1165        bottom_ctrl_5x5 & obcs_ctrl (12 digits for AD grad, same FWD grad).
1166    o tools/build_options:
1167      - simplify Warnings options (-ieee & -devel cases) in linux_amd64_gfortran
1168    o coupling interface pkgs:
1169        [compon_communic, atm_compon_interf & ocn_compon_interf]
1170      - move declaration of local array "ibuf" out of header file "CPLR_SIG.h"
1171        to each S/R that needs it; remove un-used variables.
1172      - change component tile registration (cpl_register.F in both compon_interf
1173        and mitcomponent_tile_register.F) to pass the full list of tiles
1174        information (including bi,bj) in 1 vector (instead of in a bi,bj matrix).
1175      - with pkg/exch2: adopt the same convention used for I/O to define mapping
1176        towards coupler global array (unless W2_useE2ioLayOut=F):
1177         a) can now use different tiling between atm & ocn comp.
1178         b) no needs to modify the run-Off map when changing tiling (was needed
1179            even if using the same tiling between atm & ocn).
1180         c) will allow to run with blank-tiles in 1 component (e.g., for ocean
1181            full land tiles); not yet tested.
1182      - check for valid mapping from comp. tile to coupler global array
1183      - improve report of tile registration results to log file.
1184    o pkg/exch2:
1185      - in eesupp/src/eeboot.F: move call to W2_EEBOOT before Coupler
1186        tile-registration (CPL_REGISTER);
1187      - activate (un-comment) definition and setting of "W2_tileIndex" list to
1188        store the local bi,bj indices of each tile;
1189      - also print bi,bj in local report to log file;
1190      - fix pkg/debug/debug_cs_corner_uv.F for the case nSy > 1 (left from
1191        Jun 2009 modif of pkg/exch2).
1192    o testing on baudelaire:
1193      - run 2 tests at a time: no significant slow down (since enough cpu) and
1194        get the full set of test done earlier
1195      - switch the ifort test to "-devel" ; run the OpenAD test everyday.
1196    o model/src/thermodynamics.F and routines called from it:
1197      - pkg/gmredi: gmredi_residual_flow.F (replacing gmredi_calc_uvflow.F &
1198        gmredi_calc_wflow.F) to update eulerian velocity (input) into residual
1199        velocity (outp) by adding bolus velocity.
1200      - model/src: calc_adv_flow.F (replacing calc_common_factors.F) to compute
1201        mass transport from velocity + lateral grid cell area
1202      - rename calc_gt.F to temp_integrate.F (includes call to TIMESTEP_TRACER)
1203      - rename calc_gs.F to salt_integrate.F (includes call to TIMESTEP_TRACER)
1204     in thermodynamics.F
1205      - remove k from thermodynamics.F and move it to temp_integrate.F
1206        salt_integrate.F and ptracers_integrate.F (now done inside the tracer
1207        loop).
1208      - compute locally (in thermodynamics.F) 3-D velocity field that is used to
1209        advect tracers; pass it as argument to GAD_ADVECTION, GAD_SOM_ADVECT,
1210        PTRACERS_ADVECTION, TEMP_INTEGRATE, SALT_INTEGRATE, PTRACERS_INTEGRATE,
1211        GAD_IMPLICIT_R and PTRACERS_IMPLICIT
1212      - update AD-output (TAF & OAD) of experiments: 1D_ocean_ice_column,
1213        global_ocean.90x40x15, tutorial_global_oce_biogeo and
1214        tutorial_tracer_adjsens (+ TLM output).
1215    o tools/OAD_support and (verification/*/) code_oad:
1216      - OAD_support/cb2mGetModules.csh: add PACKAGES_CONFIG.h in header file to
1217        module conversion ; remove unneeded CPP_EEOPTIONS.h.
1218      - code_oad/CPP_OPTIONS.h: remove PACKAGES_CONFIG.h and use a more standard
1219        version (closer to model/inc/CPP_OPTIONS.h).
1220    o model/src:
1221      - remove parameter "useOldFreezing" from PARAMS.h and push it to the
1222        retired list of parameters (routine FREEZE has been replace by surface
1223        freezing (10.yrs ago) and by pkg/frazil (interior freezing).
1224    o pkg/gmredi:
1225      - add option (GM_CALC_TRANSP_FROM_VEL) to compute transport directly from
1226        velocity (same scheme but affects machine truncation) for GM_AdvForm.
1227      - update output of FWD experiments: front_relax.bvp,
1228        global_ocean.90x40x15.dwnslp, global_ocean.cs32x15 and ideal_2D_oce.
1229    
1230    checkpoint64q (2013/11/17)
1231    o verification:
1232      - generate new output on baudelaire (gfortran, -ieee) for OpenAD experiments
1233        tutorial_global_oce_biogeo and global_ocean.90x40x15.
1234      - generate new output (growth & melt) for seaice_itd experiment after
1235        updating the input pickup_seaice files (previously wrong).
1236    o pkg/cost:
1237      - define a "final cost function" for each tile, and use GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL
1238        (instead of _GLOBAL_SUM_RL) to get the final cost from all procs & threads:
1239        o this fixes global-sum value if multi-threads (since GLOBAL_SUM_RL
1240          cannot be applied to var in common block).
1241        o allows to get results independent of tile-per-proc setting (if using
1242          slower GLOBAL_SUM_SEND_RECV option).
1243      - update accordingly: seaice_cost_final.F, shelfice_cost_final.F,
1244        thsice_cost_final.F and ecco_cost_final.F (this one affects lab_sea
1245        forward gradients: update output).
1246      - update */code_oad/externalDummies.F by adding dummy GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL
1247        S/R and, for most exp., also comment out GLOBAL_SUM_R8.
1248    o pkg/mom_common:
1249      - move to pkg/mom_common and model/src (previously in tutorial_deep_convection
1250        code) 2nd version of isotropic 3-D Smagorinsky code interface: strain and
1251        viscosity are locally declared in dynmics.F and pass as argument to CALC_GW;
1252        ensure that all field value that are used are set.
1253    o tutorial_deep_convection (smag3d):
1254      - add missing scaling in mom_calc_smag_3d.F;
1255      - set smag3D_coeff in input.smag3d such that results do not change.
1256    o pkg/dic:
1257      - change dic_cost.F to compute cost on each tile first and then apply
1258        GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL: this affects forward gradient of AD experiments
1259        tutorial_dic_adjoffline & tutorial_global_oce_biogeo; update output.
1260      - remove kLev argument and use GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL in tracer_meanarea.
1261    o eesupp/src & pkg/mdsio:
1262      - remove gather/scatter_vector.F (from eesupp) and mdsio_read/writevector.F
1263        (from pkg/mdsio) since they are no longer used for tape IO.
1264      - move simple C subroutine "setdir.c" from pkg/compon_communic to eesupp/src
1265        (+ keep a copy in pkg/atm_ocn_coupler).
1266    o verification/isomip:
1267      - split domain in 8 squared tiles (instead of just 2) for FWD, AD & OAD tests.
1268    o tools/build_options:
1269      - optfile linux_amd64_ifort11, fast (no ieee) case:
1270        to get a working restart for all experiments, add "-fp-model source"
1271        to FOPTIM (also remove "-opt-streaming-stores auto" <- this is the default).
1272    
1273    checkpoint64p (2013/10/20)
1274    o pkg/autodiff:
1275      - adread_adwrite.F: when type and length do not match ALLOW_AUTODIFF_WHTAPEIO
1276        criteria, return to simple (default) tape IO format.
1277    o pkg/mdsio (+ eesupp/src):
1278      - rewrite/simplify tape-IO S/R (new S/R MDS_READ/WRITE_TAPE replace
1279        previous MDSREAD/WRITEVECTOR) with 2 array argument from each type (R4/R8);
1280      - fix globalFile and singleCpuIO options using simpler global mapping.
1281      - new pairs of scatter/gather vector S/R (one for each type, generated from
1282        template) corresponding to simpler global mapping.
1283      - adread_write.F: switch to new S/R (but leave old calls commented) and write
1284        to globalFile when parameter globalFiles is set to True.
1285      - switch on useSingleCpuIO in AD experiments: global_ocean.90x40x15 & isomip.
1286    o pkg/autodiff:
1287      - adread_adwrite.F: add a hack for RS arrays (when RS=real*4);
1288        with ALLOW_AUTODIFF_WHTAPEIO defined, since corresponding (real*4) is
1289        missing, just add a STOP if array type do not match.
1290    o pkg/exf:
1291      - to allow to use seaice-fraction from pkg/exf in other pkgs than pkg/seaice:
1292         rename CPP option EXF_ALLOW_SEAICE_RELAX to EXF_SEAICE_FRACTION
1293         and rename array obsSIce to exf_iceFraction.
1294    o tutorial_deep_convection:
1295      - add 1rst version of isotropic 3-D Smagorinsky code (from Louis-Philippe),
1296        for now all in this exp. code dir.
1297      - add secondary test using Smag-3D viscosity (keep very low backgroud visc for
1298        testing) and flux-limter advection scheme for Temp. (no explicit diffusion).
1299    o eesupp/src:
1300      - added SINGLE_DISK_IO option because reading of parameter files on
1301        very large number of processors did not work with existing set-up
1302    
1303    checkpoint64o (2013/09/25)
1304    o pkg/atm_phys & atm_compon_interf:
1305      - allows for coupling of gray-atmosphere (atm_phys) with ocean.
1306    o tools/build_options:
1307      - switch from "-fPIC" to "-mcmodel=medium" in optfiles: linux_amd64_gfortran
1308        & linux_amd64_ifort11 and in linux_amd64_g77 & linux_amd64_open64 also
1309        remove CPP setting (was identical to genmake2 default).
1310    o pkg/gmredi & model/src: Some updating and work done on the residual model.
1311      - created new file model/src/calc_eddy_stress.F to calculate the eddy stress.
1312      - fixed up the calculation of the eddy stress and how it is added to the
1313        external forcing via taueddy_external_forcing.F
1314      - at the moment, it is very experimental and only works with the variable eddy
1315        diffusivity calculated in gmredi_k3d.F
1316    o pkg/seaice/seaice_check.F: add a check to catch the case of specifying
1317        lw/swfluxfile instead of lw/swdownfile in data.exf together with pkg/seaice
1318    o testreport (& tools/do_tst_2+2):
1319      - for MPI test, set default COMMAND to 'mpirun -v -np TR_NPROC ./{executable}'
1320    o tools/build_options: linux_amd64_gfortran & linux_amd64_ifort11:
1321      - remove CPP='cpp -traditional -P' (this is genmake2 default)
1322      - add switch (for big setups) to use 'medium' memory-model (but leave it
1323        commented out for now). Note: needed with FC 19 to compile big setups.
1324    o pkg/atm_compon_interf:
1325      - regroup per field origin (model & pkgs) the coupling storage routines
1326         (which accumalate in time each coupling field)
1327      - move bi,bj loops inside atm_store_my_data.F and store also wind-stress;
1328        update accordingly + simplify aim_do_physics.F
1329    
1330    checkpoint64n (2013/08/26)
1331    o pkg/bbl:
1332      - update formulation to reduce dispersion of tracer properties in bbl
1333      - replaced horizontal and vertical transport parameters with velocities
1334      - changes results for verification/global_with_exf.yearly
1335    o verification/halfpipe_streamice:
1336      - change to matrix construction; update both Fwd & AD output.
1337    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens:
1338      - OpenAD test: switch to vector-invariant momentum since fluxform with
1339        rStar causes problems with OpenAD; update output.
1340    o tools:
1341      - genmake2: define a common prefix for all temp-file names ; move them
1342        to local /tmp disk (but would be easy to move them back);
1343      - xmakedepend: apply the same switch for temp-files.
1344    o pkg/offline:
1345      - changes for use with rStar (NLFS): assume that we continue to provide
1346        UVELMASS/hFacW_ini & VVELMASS/hFacS_ini (hFacWi,S_ini as written in grid
1347        output files) and apply r* scaling at each time-step (function of the time
1348        varying Eta field); use normal pickup files (needed for restart with NLFS).
1349    o adjoint with OpenAD:
1350      - move OpenAD-specific files from verification/OpenAD/code_oad_all to a new
1351        package openad.  This package has to be compiled for all runs with OpenAD
1352        instead of specifying code_oad_all as a modification directory.
1353      - link the fortran templates from tools/OAD_support to the build directory
1354        for preprocessing to avoid conflicts between different setups compiled
1355        simultaneously and simplify cleanup.
1356    o pkg/exf:
1357      - in exf_getforcing.F: comment out most of the EXCH calls (fields used by
1358        main model or other pkgs are exchanged in EXF_MAPFIELDS).
1359    o model/src:
1360      - do_stagger_fields_exchanges.F: skip EXCH calls when using pkg/offline
1361        (similar to do_fields_blocking_exchanges.F).
1362    o tools/genmake2:
1363      - remove TAF output src code just before calling staf (when not doing a fresh
1364        built, will stop if things go wrong with staf).
1365      - fix target "adobj" (left from TAF version-2 transition)
1366    o pkg/diagnostics:
1367      - add a parameter to track the status of pkg/diagnostics activation;
1368        this replace/extend the use of logical param "settingDiags" (to check
1369        when adding diag to the list) to also check any DIAGNOSTICS_[]FILL* call.
1370        New S/R to print error message and stop when pkgStatus is not right.
1371      - to try: add a warning when "data.diagnostics" exist but useDiagnostics=F.
1372    
1373    checkpoint64m (2013/08/13)
1374    o model/inc:
1375      - move FCORI_MACROS.h from PARAMS(_MACROS).h to GRID_MACROS.h (left from
1376        8 yrs ago modif when Coriolis arrays were moved from PARAMS.h to GRID.h)
1377    o pkg/kpp & aim_v23:
1378      - only call DIAGNOSTICS_FILL when useDiagnostics=TRUE.
1379    o pkg/seaice:
1380      - restore (last time on 2011/12/24) ability to compile pkg/seaice with
1381        undefined pkg/exf ALLOW_ATM_TEMP or ALLOW_RUNOFF CPP-options.
1382      - only call DIAGNOSTICS_FILL when useDiagnostics=TRUE.
1383    o eesupp/src:
1384      - fix check for overlap-size argument (myOLn.GT.MAX_OLY_EXCH)
1385        in exch1_rx[_ad].template (thanks to Francois Lefeuvre report).
1386    o switch to TAF version-2:
1387      - add flow directives to "freeze" naming convention for ad-routines that
1388        are used in I/O routines of adjoint state and associated common blocks
1389        that are used in adcommon.h (backward compatible with version-1)
1390      - update all ad-optfiles (in tools/adjoint_options + few local to some
1391        verification exp) to switch to latest TAF version (currently 2.5.5);
1392        merge "*_mpi" adoptfiles into the corresponding non-mpi (but commented
1393        out except for diva).
1394      - the major change with TAF version-2 is that both the differentiated
1395        routines and the forward routines (new) are returned as part of the TAF
1396        output source code. Update genmake2 accordingly.
1397      - new output for AD experiment tutorial_global_oce_biogeo (better AD gradient
1398        with version-2 when compared to TLM or FWD gradient); other experiments
1399        output show minor changes (machine truncation level); update the few AD &
1400        TLM output with 12 matching digits only (some prior to version-2 switch).
1401    
1402    checkpoint64l (2013/08/05)
1403    o model/src:
1404      - in dynamics.F, skip the call to CALC_VISCOSITY if momViscosity=F
1405      - main_do_loop.F: no longer includes additional (AUTODIFF) header files
1406        when using TAF but only if using OpenAD.
1407    o pkg/mom_common+fluxform+vecinv:
1408      - always set horiz. viscosity arrays to background value before calling
1409        MOM_CALC_VISC (in MOM_FLUXFORM & MOM_VECINV) and call S/R MOM_CALC_VISC
1410        only when using variable horiz. viscosity (useVariableVisc=T);
1411      - simplify mom_vecinv.F (only 1 block for momViscosity).
1412    o pkg/mom_common: variable horiz. viscosity in NH code
1413      - move horiz-viscosity 3-D arrays viscAh_W & viscA4_W (used in calc_gw.F)
1414        from model/inc/NH_VARS.h to pkg/mom_common/MOM_VISC.h
1415      - store in common block (in MOM_VISC.h) logical parameters: useHarmonicVisc,
1416        useBiharmonicVisc & useVariableVisc.
1417      - fix old bug (already in 1rst implementation of variable horizontal viscosity
1418        in calc_gw.F, version 1.27, 2006/06/20):
1419        horizontal bi-harmonic viscosity in gW was missing when wiscA4W=0
1420        even if variable bi-harmonic viscosity (e.g., viscA4Grid) was non-zero.
1421      - change background horiz viscosity in vertical momentum (gW) to always be
1422        viscAhW,viscA4W (instead of switching to viscAhD, viscA4D when using
1423        any type of variable viscosity, e.g., viscAh/4Grid)
1424      - change default value of viscAhW,viscA4W to viscAhD,viscA4D (instead of
1425        viscAh,viscA4) which default to viscAh,viscA4 :  this avoid missing
1426        horiz. viscosity in W eq when just setting viscAhD/Z,viscA4D/Z (since
1427        default viscAh,viscA4 is zero).
1428    o model/src:
1429      - extend length of drC & recip_drC from Nr to Nr+1.
1430    o Divided Adjoint (DIVA) with MPI:
1431      - genmake2: do not create local ./mpi_headers dir when no file to copy into.
1432      - remove option ALLOW_DIVIDED_ADJOINT_MPI (replaced by ALLOW_DIVIDED_ADJOINT
1433        and ALLOW_USE_MPI) from model/src code and from ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h.
1434    
1435    checkpoint64k (2013/07/23)
1436    o tools/OAD_support:
1437      - avoid the need for file "oadtempflile" in insertTemplateDir.bash
1438        and remove it from genmake2.
1439    o tools/build_options:
1440      - remove MPI_HEADER_FILES_INC setting (no longer used) and comment out
1441        MPI_HEADER_FILES list (let genmake2 find the missing headers)
1442    o verification/halfpipe_streamice:
1443      - change to driving stress formulation; update both Fwd & AD output.
1444    o tools/genmake2 and Divided Adjoint with MPI:
1445      - remove default setting of MPIINCLUDEDIR from $MPIHOME (always been broken);
1446      - only create local ./mpi_headers dir if using MPI and MPIINCLUDEDIR is set;
1447      - add new variable (LOCAL_MPI_HEADERS, replace MPI_HEADER_FILES_INC) in
1448        Makefile, which is set by genmake2, and check which mpi-headers are needed.
1449        Note: need to update adjoint_options/adjoint_diva_mpi accordingly.
1450      - update target "CLEAN" (to also remove ./mpi_headers/ dir).
1451    o testreport:
1452      - changes for Divided Adjoint Run: when file "run_ADM_DIVA" is present,
1453        perform additional runs (number of additional runs is "add_DIVA_runs" taken
1454        from file run_ADM_DIVA ; should match "nchklev_3" in file "code_ad/tamc.h").
1455    o verification/lab_sea (AD test):
1456      - change to test Divided Adjoint Run in this set-up (both standard AD test
1457        and 2 secondary AD test: noseaice + noseaicedyn); drop the evp AD test.
1458    o pkg atm_ & ocn_compon_interf:
1459      - remove cpl_earlyExpImpCall=F option (was mainly a hack added for the old
1460        staggerTimeStep implementation) and disable (retired) corresponding
1461        parameter.
1462    o pkg/offline:
1463      - comment out unused field-array: ICEM, ConvectCount, hflx[01], icem[01];
1464      - add S/R OFFLINE_CHECK to print offline parameter summary
1465        and stop if loading a file that is not used;
1466      - enable to calculate GMRedi tensor, KPP mixing and convective index
1467        when the corresponding file(s) is/are not specified (but pkg is used).
1468      - comment out resetting of monitorFreq (to endTime) since it still useful
1469        for monitoring CFL numbers and checking offline fields.
1470    o OpenAD:
1471      - do not define OAD_DEBUG (in tools/adjoint_options/adjoint_oad) to get
1472        smaller standard output) and generate new (smaller) output (on baudelaire
1473        using gfortran with -ieee) for exp. tutorial_tracer_adjsens
1474    o model/src:
1475      - call EXTERNAL_FORCING_SURF outside bi,bj loops (in do_oceanic_phys.F),
1476        (where external_forcing_adjust was called) and change list of arguments;
1477      - merge external_forcing_adjust.F into external_forcing_surf.F
1478      - put surface relaxation of SST & SSS in new S/R (forcing_surf_relax.F)
1479        which also contains balancing surface relaxation (ALLOW_BALANCE_RELAX,
1480        previously in file "balance_relax.F", now removed); remove corresponding
1481        arrays in FFIELDS.h.
1482      - EXTERNAL_FORCING_SURF is now called when using pkg/offline; implement
1483        a hack for getting back surfaceForcingS (loaded from file) when using
1484        ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX (pkg/dic, in DIC_OPTIONS.h) in offline set-up.
1485      - update output of AD test experiment global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice_dynmix
1486        (was getting only 11 digits for AD-grad, due to different truncation
1487         error in AD code).
1488    
1489    checkpoint64j (2013/07/04)
1490    o pkg/offline:
1491      - to enable the use of other features with pkg offline (e.g., obcs),
1492        also call S/R DO_OCEANIC_PHYS in offline run - more modifs to come.
1493      - comment out "allowFreezing" (now active) in 2 offline testing exp.
1494    o pkg/exf ALLOW_RUNOFTEMP
1495      - fix sign and make compatible with temp_EvPrRn .NE. UNSET_RL
1496      - ahdded RUNOFTEMP test to verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.seaice
1497      - changes verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/results/output.seaice.txt
1498    o pkg/atm_phys:
1499      - allows to add some damping on uVel,vVel (strength only function of k).
1500    o verification, ad-tests:
1501      - reduce length of the simulation for AD test: global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice,
1502        global_ocean_ebm and offline_exf_seaice.thsice.
1503    o verification/halfpipe_streamice:
1504      - found a bug in s/r pkg/streamice/streamice_advect_thickness which caused
1505        flux input boundary conditions to be ignored; a fix for this bug changed
1506        verification results for forward test.
1507      - add adjoint test.
1508    o pkg/ptracers:
1509      - allow to restart without SOM pickup (resetting SOM to zero).
1510    o pkg/gmredi:
1511      - New parameterisation for the calculation of K and (GM_PsiX,GM_PsiY) added.
1512      - It uses mixing length theory and suppression by steering level effects to
1513        calculate a diffusivity used in the Redi tensor (see Bates et al., submitted
1514        to JPO, for more details).
1515      - It also uses the diffusivity to calculate an eddy induced streamfunction
1516        based on a PV closure (rather than a buoyancy closure as in GM).
1517      - New files added to pkg/gmredi:
1518        gmredi_k3d.F calculates the diffusivity for the Redi tensor and the eddy
1519          induced overturning streamfunction (called from gmredi_calc_tensor)
1520        gmredi_calc_eigs.F calculates the eigenvalues and eigenvectors required
1521          for use in gmredi_k3d
1522        gmredi_calc_urms.F calculates the the rms eddy velocity used to calculate
1523          the eddy diffusivity
1524    
1525    checkpoint64i (2013/06/18)
1526    o pkg/cheapaml:
1527      - take src files from MITgcm_contrib/verification_other/offline_cheapaml/code
1528        that enable the use of seaice (pkg/thsice thermo & pkg/seaice dynamics)
1529        with pkg/cheapaml.
1530    o utils/python: add subpackage for cubed sphere function, first example is
1531        simple cs.pcol to plot 2D fields on a map
1532    o pkg/streamice:
1533      - This is a new package in MITgcm, which solves dynamic equations for ice
1534         sheets and ice streams
1535      - At the moment it is independent of atmosphere/ocean dynamics, or any
1536        other physical packages in MITgcm, even ShelfIce (although it is anticipat-
1537        ed that this will change)
1538      - There is a new verification exercise that tests it, halfpipe_streamice,
1539        evolves a 40x80 km ice stream/ice shelf (at coarse resolution) in a
1540        rectangular embayment
1541      - halfpipe_streamice is forward-only for now, will have TAF test soon
1542      - for questions, email dgoldber@mit.edu
1543    o pkg/thsice:
1544      - fix filling of snow-precip diagnostic (SIsnwPrc) (left from the removing
1545        of snowPrc from common bloc, on May 2nd, thsice_step_fwd.F revision 1.40);
1546      - remove diagnostics 'SI_FrcFx' ( now identical to 'SI_Fract' with new
1547         call sequence: ice-Thermo(thsice),ice-Dyn,ice-Advect );
1548      - allow precip from pkg/cheapaml to make snow over seaice.
1549    o pkg/cfc:
1550      - move in separated header file (CFC_ATMOS.h) time-serie arrays of Atmos CFC
1551      - remove atmos CFC 2-D arrays from common bloc (now local variables)
1552      - change some hard-coded constant to run time parameter for reading and
1553        and interpolating atmospheric CFC ; keep same default as previously.
1554      - more flexible reading of Atmos CFC (number of records no longer hard-coded)
1555      - put arguments in standard order: myTime, myIter, myThid
1556      - use standard S/R GET_PERIODIC_INTERVAL for time interpolation of
1557        atmospheric CFC ; fix for the case myIter < PTRACERS_iter0.
1558      - fix calculation of surf tendencys for partial-cell and/or Non-Lin Free-Surf
1559      - new routine to print summary of CFC params and check for consistency.
1560    o pkg/seaice: add uice/vice to the parameter list of s/r seaice_advdiff,
1561      similar to thsice_advdiff.
1562      Note that for the B-grid case the routine parameters uc/vc are overwritten.
1563    o pkg/cfc:
1564      - change time interpolation for atmospheric CFC-11 (now same as for CFC-12);
1565        update output (CFC-11) of experiment cfc_example and tutorial_cfc_offline.
1566      - fix interpolation of atmphspheric CFC between Sorthern and Northern
1567        hemisphere value.
1568    o pkg/seaice:
1569      - allow to use seaice dynamics without pkg/exf (e.g., using pkg/cheapaml)
1570    o pkg/seaice: add Adams-Bashforth2 time discretization for ice dynamics;
1571                  so far only for JFNK-solver, turn on with SEAICEuseAB2 = .TRUE.
1572      - requires an additional time level that is stored in the pickup
1573      - you can start with AB2 from a pickup without this time level with
1574        pickupStrictlyMatch = .false.
1575    
1576    checkpoint64h (2013/05/26)
1577    o pkg/cheapaml:
1578      - replace one ()**.5 with SQRT + use temp var "cdu = tau/Du" (coare3_flux);
1579        affect machine truncation (but exp cheapAML_box still pass with 13 digits).
1580      - consistent treatment of uWind,vWind location: assume everywhere in
1581        pkg/cheapaml that they are on C-grid (@ uVel,vVel location)
1582        (Note: was already the case for Tair,Qair advection);
1583        add option (INCONSISTENT_WIND_LOCATION) to recover old results.
1584      - compute diabatic forcing only in the interior (excluding overlap regions)
1585      - fill in array "Qsw" (for short-wave heating);
1586      - add diagnostic for precip ; fill-in diagnostics for cheapAML state vars
1587        before any update (consistent with MITgcm state var diagnostics);
1588      - cheapaml_fields_load.F & cheapaml_init_varia.F : only fill outer edges if
1589        non periodic ; + adjusted for uWind,vWind (C-grid).
1590    o pkg/seaice:
1591      - remove dependence of pkg/seaice versus pkg/exf (file: pkg/pkg_depend) and
1592        add explicitly pkg/exf in experiments that currently use pkg/seaice.
1593      - allows to compile pkg/seaice without pkg/exf.
1594    o tools/OAD_support:
1595      - use a local copy (ourRWCPinBd) to ensure index ourRWCP stays within bounds
1596        of array "ourStepOf" in function rvNextAction (revolve.F90).
1597    o pkg/aim_compon_interf renamed to pkg/atm_compon_interf
1598      - change pkg name (to be used with other atmospheric physics pkg)
1599        but by-pass CVS when making the new pkg so that we keep the CVS history.
1600    o pkg/offline:
1601      - call OFFLINE_FIELDS_LOAD from pkg/offline/offline_init_varia.F
1602        (previously called from pkg/dic_surfforcing_init.F)
1603    o model/src:
1604      - re-order sequence of calls within packages_init_variables.F, using
1605        standard order, except for:
1606         DIAGNOSTICS_INIT_VARIA and OFFLINE_INIT_VARIA (called @ the top),
1607         CTRL_MAP_INI and OBCS_INIT_VARIABLES (called @ the bottom)
1608    o new pkg: atm_phys
1609      - add entry point and source code (previously in contrib
1610          verification_other/atm_gray/code_gray/) for new pkg "atm_phys"
1611        (atmospheric physics pkg from P. O'Gorman and T. Schneider, JCl, 2008).
1612      - re-order sequence of calls within packages_readparms.F,
1613         packages_init_fixed.F and packages_write_pickup.F
1614        (but skip packages_init_variables.F because of TAF issues).
1615      - update contrib/*/atm_gray/ experiment.
1616    o pkg/seaice (ITD code):
1617      - simplify and fix the writing of pickup-files for ITD case
1618    o pkg/seaice (ITD code):
1619      - introduce floe size dependent lateral melt for ITD case;
1620      - cleaning (avoid division by zero, change to f77 syntax, remove tabs)
1621      - update seaice_itd experiment main output.
1622    o pkg/thsice:
1623      - remove snowPrc from common block THSICE_FLUX, in THSICE_VARS.h and
1624        declared it locally (without bi,bj) in thsice_main.F & aim_do_physics.F;
1625        changed accordingly pkg/atm2d.
1626    
1627    checkpoint64g (2013/05/01)
1628    o pkg/exf ALLOW_RUNOFTEMP
1629      - if defined,  river and glacier runoff temperature can be read-in from
1630        runoftempfile; runoftempfile needs to have same format as runofffile
1631    o pkg/thsice (& pkg/bulk_force):
1632      - In case Energy-Reference-Level (ERL) is used (temp_EvPrRn=0), account
1633        for energy content of Precip + RunOff & Evap (like with pkg/exf).
1634      - change computation domain to always be the interior (without overlap).
1635      - fix bug (wrong overlap) when using EXF and stressReduction > 0.
1636    o verification/tutorial_global_oce_biogeo:
1637      - add preliminary OpenAD setup (still has problems)
1638    o pkg/seaice:
1639      - turn some parameters for choosing the convergence criterion of
1640        the inexact Newton method (JFNK) into runtime parameters for convenience
1641      - clean up seaice_calc_viscosities.F: remove/retire two options for
1642        SEAICetaZmethod (1,2), introduce area weighting for method 3; this changes
1643        the results of lab_sea/input because a division has been replaced by
1644        a multiplication with the reciprocal (sumNorm)
1645      - modify offline_exf_seaice/input.dyn_jfnk/data.seaice to improve
1646        convergence of solver (changes results, of course), and to test some
1647        new features
1648    o model/src:
1649      - remove unused (since Aug 2006) S/R SET_WRITE_GLOBAL_PICKUP and its call.
1650      - remove unused forcing field "dQdT" and associated parameter "dQdTFile".
1651      - move forcing adjustment (balancing surface forcing) in specific S/R
1652        where might also be applied exchanges (if needed) to forcing arrays.
1653    o pkg/shelfice:
1654      - allow to specify the Ice-Shelf mass per unit area (instead of
1655        shelficeLoadAnomaly) and do the conversion from one to the other
1656      - move loading from file of shelficeLoadAnomaly from SHELFICE_INIT_VARIA
1657        to SHELFICE_INIT_FIXED: (a) avoid some TAF recompution issues and
1658        (b) will be loaded in time (before calling INI_PRESSURE) in case it is
1659        needed in phi0surf for initial pressure calculation when useDynP_inEos_Zc
1660      - update isomip experiment forward output (get machine truncation error
1661        from conversion shelficeLoadAnomaly -> shelficeMass -> shelficeLoadAnomaly)
1662    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
1663      revise data.seaice in input.thermo and input_ad and update results accordingly
1664        HO = 0.2, SEAICE_areaLossFormula = 2,
1665        SEAICE_growMeltByConv = .TRUE.,
1666        SEAICE_doOpenWaterMelt = .TRUE.,
1667      Improve consistency with input.thsice and fix the spurious 500m ice corners
1668    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15:
1669      - set Energy Reference Level to liq. water @ 0 degC: temp_EvPrRn=0.,
1670        in icedyn (thsice+seaice-dyn) test and update output.
1671    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
1672      - adjust list of tested variables (with testreport) and update
1673        standard test output with better slection of monitored fields.
1674    o pkg/cd_code:
1675      - swtich off Adams-Bashforth on the 1rst iteration. Update output of
1676        experiment lab_sea.hb87
1677    o tools/genmake2:
1678      - change default makedepend from the system default to tools/xmakedepend:
1679        When no makedepend is specified, select tools/xmakedepend it the test pass,
1680        otherwise select the system default (if exist and pass the test) or
1681        try to build cyrus-makedepend ; stop if none of the 3 works.
1682    o pkg/exf & pkg/thsice:
1683      - In case Energy-Reference-Level (ERL) is used (temp_EvPrRn=0), account
1684        for energy content of Precip + RunOff & Evap. Assumes:
1685       1) Rain has same temp as Air.
1686       2) Snow has no heat capacity (consistent with seaice & thsice pkgs)
1687       3) Run-Off comes at the temp of surface water (with same Cp)
1688       4) Evap over ocean is released to the Atmos @ surf-temp (=SST); should be
1689        put directly into Latent Heat flux & should use water-vapor heat capacity.
1690       5) Evap over snow/seaice (pkg/thsice) assumes constant Lf+Lv (consistent
1691        with snow having no Cp) => water vapor is released to Atmos @ 0^oC (=ERL).
1692    o pkg/seaice: simplify the use of CPP flags in JFNK-related files
1693        (compile when SEAICE_ALLOW_JFNK is defined)
1694    o pkg/thsice:
1695      - fix oceanic flux diagnostics & timeave (left from new sequence of calls
1696        implementation): move THSICE_AVE call after the advection (called directly
1697        from thsice_do_advect.F).
1698    o verification/global_ocean.90x40x15 and OpenAD:
1699      New experiment for OpenAD is identical to the one in input_ad except that
1700        multiDimAdvection=.FALSE.,
1701      There is still an issue with this.
1702    o pkg/thsice:
1703      - account for ice velocity (ocean relative velocity) in turbulent heat flux
1704        at the base of the ice; update output of global_ocean.cs32x15 (icedyn)
1705        and offline_exf_seaice (main test).
1706    
1707    checkpoint64f (2013/03/31)
1708    o verification/OpenAD:
1709      - new (smaller, without OAD_DEBUG) output_oadm.txt generated using gfortran.
1710    o verification/isomip, pkg/shelfice and OpenAD:
1711      - add OpenAD setup to this exp and make shelfice package work with OpenAD
1712    o verification/tutorial_global_oce_biogeo:
1713      - update AD and TLM output after turning off ALLOW_FE (in DIC_OPTIONS.h)
1714    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
1715      - replace adjoint experiment (now similar to fwd input.thermo/ setup).
1716    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens, pkg/ptracers and OpenAD:
1717      - add OpenAD setup to this exp and make ptracers package work with OpenAD
1718    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp.F:
1719       mask the asymmetric contribution of the ice-ocean stress (when
1720       the turningAngle is non-zero) over open water to avoid stripes
1721       in the EVP-solutions after many EVP-substeps. This does not change
1722       the verification experiment (because turningAngle=0 in that experiment),
1723       but will affect other EVP solutions with turningAngle.ne.0
1724    o verification, AD & TLM output:
1725      - new TAF version 2.3.10 (previously 2.3.8) add more parenthesis in multiple
1726        additions and multiplications which affect results at machine truncation
1727        level. Update few AD output (1D_ocean_ice_column, bottom_ctrl_5x5,
1728        lab_sea.noseaicedyn & offline_exf_seaice) and TLM output
1729        (1D_ocean_ice_column & tutorial_tracer_adjsens.som81) which had only 12
1730        digits of matching.
1731    o pkg/seaice:
1732       modify lsr-algorithm so that it vectorizes AND converges by using a
1733       "zebra" method: split vector loop into two with step size 2; this
1734       solves a general convergence problem for the JFNK solver on a vector
1735       computer. It has the potential to even improve convergence for
1736       non-vector machines, but it does change the results so it is turned
1737       off by default. To turn on define CPP-flags SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR and
1738       SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h
1739    
1740    checkpoint64e (2013/03/05)
1741    o pkg/ecco and several verification experiments:
1742       Remove special versions of the_model_main.F, the_main_loop.F, forward_step.F
1743       from ecco package, and revert to unified routine in model/src/
1744       Adjust verification experiments accordingly, especially gloal_oce_llc90
1745       Should conclude long-standing work by Gael to reconsile the_main_loop with
1746       ECCO and will enable OpenAD's revolve loop in ECCO setup.
1747    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
1748      - implement compressible flow method for multi-dim advection (similar to
1749        gad_som_advect.F); add new option "GAD_MULTIDIM_COMPRESSIBLE" (since
1750        TAF generates many recomputations) to use it; no yet coded with implicit
1751        vertical advection.
1752      - change experiment advect_cs (new output) and advect_xy (same output)
1753        to test compressible flow multi-dim advection.
1754    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
1755      - fix SOM advection for unusual cases (linear Free-Surf in r*, other
1756        cases where linear Free-Surf is not @ k=1, e.g., useShelfIce)
1757    o pkg/seaice:
1758      - fix bug in the no-slip implementation in seaice_calc_strainrates.F, this
1759        bug affects two verification experiments (lab_sea and lab_sea.hb87),
1760        recover old (wrong) results by setting noSlipFac = 2. in
1761        seaice_calc_strainrates.F;
1762      - add another averaging method for etaZ (etaZmethod=3), a mix of 2 and 0
1763      - add runtime parameter SEAICE_JFNKepsilon for that finite difference
1764        gradient in the Jacobian times vector operation (s/r seaice_jacvec)
1765      - fix line search in seaice_jfnk.F (s/r seaice_jfnk_update)
1766    o pkg/seaice: reorganize seaice_lsr.F to be able to reuse more code:
1767      - new subroutines seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
1768      - introduce loop bounds i/jmin/max to be able to use a restricted
1769        additive Schwarz method, but not used for now.
1770      - rename SEAICE_CALC_LSR_COEFFS into SEAICE_LSR_CALC_COEFFS
1771      - use new subroutines seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v in s/r seaice_preconditioner
1772    o OpenAD support
1773       Reorganize S/R call for overall time-stepping loop to facilitate
1774       OpenAD revolve loop replacement
1775       (new S/R main_do_loop.F)
1776    o model/src:
1777      - add 3-D array 3rd dimension to argument list of S/R ADAMS_BASHFORTH2/3;
1778      - pkg/cheapaml: remove local S/R ADAMS2d and use instead standard S/R
1779        ADAMS_BASHFORTH2.
1780    o pkg/cheapaml:
1781      - add new parameter (default=F, same as before) to disable full domain
1782        (including land) periodicity in X & Y dir.
1783      - new S/R CHEAPAML_COPY_EDGES to copy relaxation field into edges of
1784        prognostics field ; merge the 2 S/R cycle_2d_tracer and timestep_2d_tracer
1785        into single S/R CHEAPAML_TIMESTEP.
1786    
1787    checkpoint64d (2013/02/17)
1788    o pkg/monitor (angular momentum):
1789      - do not add Eta contribution to the total AM if using rigid-lid;
1790      - correct for Adams-Bashforth in zonal-wind part (instead of in AM_eta).
1791      - horizontal discretisation: compute Zonal wind contribution separately for
1792        each component (instead of from cell centered averaged) and use the 4
1793        grid-cell corner averaged value of Omega*(R*cos_Phi)^2 in AM_eta part.
1794      - Check that AM is conserved with linear dynamics (momAdvection=F and linear
1795        FreeSurf) if using vectorInvariant momentum.
1796    o model/src (horizontal grid):
1797      - move initialisation of all horizontal grid arrays to null value
1798        from specific horizontal grid S/R to main S/R INI_GRID;
1799      - add 2 new arrays to project model C-grid velocity on to zonal direction
1800        (similar to AngleCosC & -AngleSinC but at U and V point location) and
1801        compute them in S/R CALC_GRID_ANGLES.
1802    o pkg/seaice: replace a hard coded parameter by a runtime parameter
1803        SEAICE_JFNK_tolIter
1804    o pkg/seaice: introduce a restricted additive Schwarz (RAS) method in
1805        preconditioner for JFNK (run LSR into the overlaps as far as possible,
1806        i.e OLx/y-2, but overwrite the solution in the overlaps)
1807      - extend loop range in seaice_calc_viscosity
1808      - add new parameters SEAICE_OLx/y (default = OLx/y-2)
1809      - add flexible loop ranges to seaice_preconditioner, seaice_calc_lsr_coeffs
1810      - slightly modify loops in tridiagonal solver lsr-preconditioner
1811      - by default remove the extra exchange in seaice_preconditioner with a
1812        replacement of an undocumented CPP flag by SEAICE_PRECOND_EXTRA_EXCHANGE
1813      - modify offline_exf_seaice so that old results without RAS are reproduced
1814        for output.dyn_jfnk.txt
1815      in seaice_fgmres.F (unrelated to RAS)
1816      - add a cpp-flag option for a re-ordered mapping (potentially more
1817        efficient), but because this changes the results, turn it off by
1818        default
1819      - replace the save statement by local common blocks
1820    o utils/matlab:
1821      - fix tile-offset in rdmnc.m when output was produced using EXCH2.
1822      - update cs_grid/bk_line scripts to use load_grid.m (in utils/matlab)
1823        instead of local script "load_cs.m".
1824    o pkg/seaice:
1825      - fix a serious bug in seaice_fgmres.F, s/r seaice_scalprod, connected
1826        to the scalarProductMetric and the unrolling. By chance this does not
1827        change the verification experiment, because of the particular domain
1828        decomposition
1829    o pkg/diagnostics:
1830      - change default missing_value from UNSET_RL to -999.
1831    o pkg/layers: improve vectorization of layers_fluxcalc.F
1832      - step 1: split loops, make TatU/V 2D arrays. This alone reduces the cpu
1833        time spent in this routine by more than a factor of 3 on an NEC-SX8
1834      - step 2: replace search algorithm by a bisection algorithm found in
1835        Press et al. Numerical Recipes in Fortran. This algorithm can be
1836        vectorized and finds the correct bin in approx. log2(Nlayers) steps.
1837        For now, use this algorithm only for TARGET_NEC_SX defined.
1838      - moved the search algorithm into a separate subroutine, that is kept
1839        within the same file for automatic inlining.
1840      - modified catching potential errors
1841    o pkg/ecco:
1842      - add compile switches ALLOW_SHALLOW_ALTIMETRY and ALLOW_HIGHLAT_ALTIMETRY.
1843    o model/src, pkg/autodiff, pkg/ctrl, pkg/grdchk :
1844      - modifications for ALLOW_GENTIM2D_CONTROL
1845      -- forward_step.F, the_main_loop.F : pass options and arrays for adjoint tapes.
1846      -- load_fields_driver.F : add call to CTRL_MAP_GENTIM2D( myTime, myIter, myThid )
1847      -- add xx_gentim2d0/1 in ctrl_ad_check_lev1_dir.h checkpoint_lev1_directives.h etc
1848      -- use ctrl_swapffields.F (new) instead of exf_SwapFFields.F in ctrl_get_gen.F
1849    o model/src:
1850      - account for moist thermodynamics in (dry) potential temperature equation;
1851        update results of experiments: aim.5l_cs (x2), fizhi-cs (std + aqualev)
1852        and cpl_aim+ocn.
1853      - also switch to standard compiler (gfortran, was using ifort previously)
1854        for fizhi-cs experiments reference output.
1855    o pkg/ctrl:
1856      - 1st step toward generic time-varying control variable (2D) via CPP option
1857        ALLOW_GENTIM2D_CONTROL
1858      - note new namelist ctrl_nml_genarr in data.ctrl
1859    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15:
1860      - switch off OLD_THSICE_CALL_SEQUENCE (both forward and AD code) to use new
1861        thsice calling sequence and update "output.icedyn.txt" output file.
1862    o pkg/ptracers:
1863      - from Ryan A.: code to allow to restart a tracer at regular time interval
1864        specifying a reset frequency and a reset-phase (for each tracers).
1865    o pkg/thsice:
1866      - implement new sequence of calls for thsice+seaice:
1867          previously:   ice-Dyn,ice-Advect,ice-Thermo(thsice)
1868          new sequence: ice-Thermo(thsice),ice-Dyn,ice-Advect
1869      - allows (with temporary CPP option "#define OLD_THSICE_CALL_SEQUENCE"
1870        in CPP_OPTIONS.h) to recover old sequence;
1871      - update diagnostics for Intermediate State thsice diagnostics: now filled
1872        just before advection (instead of just after advection in old sequence);
1873      - update output of experiment offline_exf_seaice (standard test);
1874      - in global_ocean.cs32x15 exp., postpone output.icedyn.txt update
1875        by setting #define OLD_THSICE_CALL_SEQUENCE in CPP_OPTIONS.h
1876    o pkg/aim_v23:
1877      - use tiled array for aim_CO2 and surface wind speed for export to coupler;
1878      - use standard pkg/mdsio routines to read & write CO2 pickup file;
1879      - in-line S/R AIM_AIM2DYN_EXCHANGES in aim_do_physics.F;
1880      - Implement new sequence of calls for seaice advection (with thsice and
1881        seaice diffusion): do ice advection after ice-Thermodynamic (previously
1882        was done before); change aim_do_physics.F (split the bi,bj loops block);
1883      - use same CPP option (OLD_THSICE_CALL_SEQUENCE) to recover old sequence;
1884    o pkg/thsice:
1885      - add a missing EXCH of sIceLoad in thsice_main.F (ocean set-up) for the case
1886        where just seaice diffusion is used without seaice-dynamics.
1887    
1888    checkpoint64c (2013/01/18)
1889    o pkg/seaice:
1890      - add a parameter JFNKres_tFac that can replace JFNKres_t
1891        (= JFNKres_tFac*JFNKresidual before JFNK solver)
1892      - add a line search option to the JFNK solver
1893      - move update of u/vIce and computation of initial residual into a separate
1894        routine (same file); makes the code a little easier to read (?)
1895      - the line search requires computation of the residual and for some reason
1896        I cannot do the update of u/vIce at the beginning of the Newton loop
1897        without changing the results, so we move computation of the new residual
1898        also to the end of the Newton loop, even without the line search
1899    o pkg/mdsio:
1900      - write missing value (corresponding to undefined array value) to meta files;
1901        skip this if missing value is one (UNSET_RL would be a better value for the
1902        case of undefined missing value but it's current the default missing-value);
1903        Also update mdsio_read_meta.F (reading timeInterval & missing-value).
1904    o pkg/exf & thsice:
1905      - for diagnostics purpose, fill-up and update Qsw array (+ fill the
1906        diagnostics) even when SHORTWAVE_HEATING is #undef;
1907    o verification/cfc_example:
1908      - turn on pkg/layers with pkg/diagnostics (to test pkg/layers and to
1909        illustrate how to use it).
1910    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
1911      in input: add SEAICErestoreUnderIce=.TRUE., and reduce size of forcing
1912        files to only one time-record.
1913      in input.thermo: narrow the 2 bands of low initial ice-concentration near
1914        N & S edges; switch on SEAICErestoreUnderIce=T; use pkg/diagnostics for
1915        snapshot output; same mcPheePiston value as in thsice with
1916        surf-current=0.2m/s.
1917      in input.thsice: similar set-up as in input.thermo (channel with same seaice
1918        initial conditions).
1919    o verification/cfc_example:
1920      - update file "data" with more standard choice (default rotationPeriod,
1921        exactConserv=T, reduce ivdc_kappa to 10, remove multiDimAdvection=F,
1922        set deltaTFreeSurf to deltaTtracer) and update the output.
1923    o pkg/layers:
1924      - fix bolus part so that it compiles with #undef GM_BOLUS_ADVEC;
1925      - ensure that "layers_bolus" is switched to False when useGMRedi=False.
1926    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
1927      - set all {field}period to zero for constant-in-time forcing (not tested
1928        anywhere else).
1929    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
1930      - dyn_lsr  : use pkg/seaice S/R (instead of pkg/thsice) to advect sea-ice;
1931      - dyn_jfnk : use pkg/thsice S/R (instead of pkg/seaice) to advect sea-ice.
1932    o model/src:
1933      - implement Finite-Volume method for (hydrostatic) presure gradient
1934        from S.-J. Lin (QJRMS 1997), for atmosphere using sigma-coordinate.
1935    o pkg/seaice: implement EVP* by Lemieux et al. (2012).
1936      - In order to be compatible with the default EVP code, this requires changing
1937        the EVP code around a little; and because any small change immediately
1938        breaks the lab_sea.hb87 verification experiment, the reference output is
1939        updated two times (each time the remaining aggrement was only 2 digits):
1940        - after replacing 1/dt by 1*recip_dt with a precomputed recip_dt
1941        - after replacing 1/(1+0.5*dt/tau) by a/(a+1), with a=2*tau/dt
1942        The adjoint test lab_sea.evp also needed to be updated.
1943      - Turn on EVP* by setting SEAICE_deltaTevp as before, and setting
1944        SEAICEuseEVPstar=.true.; for EVP* SEAICE_deltaTevp does not need to be
1945        a factor of SEAICE_deltaTdyn, and you can set the number of EVP steps
1946        explicitly with SEAICEnEVPstarSteps (thereby overriding the default of
1947        INT(SEAICE_deltaTdyn/SEAICE_deltaTevp)). Controlling EVP* is deliberately
1948        kept obscure, because I need to test it a little more.
1949    o pkg/cheapaml:
1950      - fix few incorrect type (_RL/_RS) in subroutine calls.
1951    o pkg/seaice:
1952      - new S/R SEAICE_MAP_RS2VEC (similar to SEAICE_MAP2VEC) to map _RS arrays
1953        to _RL vector; this fixes JFNK code when compiling with "-use_r4" option.
1954    o model/src:
1955      - add a warning if using select_rStar=2 with nonlinFreeSurf <> 4;
1956        change (in input_ad*/data) select_rStar from 2 to 1 for AD verification
1957        experiments global_ocean.cs32x15 & tutorial_tracer_adjsens (+ update output)
1958    o pkg/cheapaml:
1959      - replace "273.1 _d 0" by celsius2K in pkg/cheapaml/cheapaml.F and
1960        update output of experiment cheapAML_box.
1961      - store in CHEAPAML.h coeffs ssq[0:2] for saturation specific humidity,
1962        and set them only in one place (cheapaml_readparms.F).
1963      - replace "273.16 _d 0" by celsius2K & replace "3.14159 _d 0" by constant "PI"
1964      - remove re-setting of main-model parameter "celsius2K" (in cheapaml_readparms)
1965        and re-setting of cheapAML params "lath" & "p0" (in cheapaml_init_varia).
1966    o model/src/the_main_loop.F:
1967      - fix revision 129 : need both ALLOW_ECCO and ALLOW_ECCO_EVOLUTION.
1968    o pkg/seaice:
1969      - remove legacy branch code.
1970      - retire SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY and SEAICE_CAP_HEFF accordingly.
1971    o verification/*/code*/SEAICE_OPTIONS.h:
1972      - remove documentation for retired CPP flags (SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY,
1973        SEAICE_CAP_HEFF).
1974    o pkg/cheapaml:
1975      - use standard routine (S/R GET_PERIODIC_INTERVAL) to decide when it is time
1976        to load new forcing fields.
1977      - add missing "_d 0" where it's needed; + some editing (improve indentation).
1978      - remove switch to "-r8" compiler option (no longer needed) in verification
1979        cheapAML_box, keep same output (small trucation error differences).
1980    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
1981      - add thermodynamics only test.
1982    o verification/cheapAML_box:
1983      - split the domain in 8 (2x4) tiles; add MPI and multi-threaded test;
1984        keep same output (same 14 digits for cg2d).
1985      - switch on "-r8" compiler option (some numerical values are missing
1986        the "_d 0") and update output (only 6 digits for cg2d were preserved).
1987    
1988    checkpoint64b (2012/12/24)
1989    o pkg/cheapaml:
1990      - remove un-used variables (Qnet,EmPmR) from pickup files.
1991      - store tendency of advected variables into cheapaml pickup file
1992        and fix the AB-2 restart.
1993    o verification/offline_exf_seaice and lab_sea adjoint:
1994      - switch to new code (#undef SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY).
1995      - switch to 4 time steps in offline, consistent with lab_sea.
1996      - match parameters from SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY branch in data.seaice.
1997      - update results after change of experiment seaice.
1998    o pkg/seaice:
1999      - remove option SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY; has been replaced with run-time
2000        parameter SEAICE_multDim. Issue a warning if SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY is
2001        still defined since SEAICE_multDim needs to be set to MULTDIM value (from
2002        SEAICE_SIZE.h) to recover previous #define SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY default.
2003    o model/src:
2004      - add run-time parameter to select CG2D solver minimum-residual solution
2005        (in case of a poor convergence).
2006    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F
2007      - move calculation of matrix coefficients into new
2008        S/R SEAICE_CALC_LSR_COEFFS; for now this routine remains in the same
2009        file; the main purpose of this change is to be able to reuse the code
2010        in S/R SEAICE_PRECONDITIONER
2011      - modify the computation of the residual so that the mass of sea-ice
2012        is not used twice; this simplifies the calculations, but since
2013        the residual is never used except when LSR_mixIniGuess.ge.4---and this is
2014        not tested in testreport---this does not affect the testreport results.
2015    o verification/seaice_obcs:
2016      - disable SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY; reset input files to match those of
2017        verification/lab_sea/input.salt_plume; changes results/output.txt*
2018    o model/src:
2019      - adapt quasi-hydrostatic formulation to work with p or p* coordinate.
2020    o pkg/seaice:
2021      - improve description of parameters in seaice_fgmres.F and start
2022        cleaning up the code
2023      - change name of SCALPROD to SEAICE_SCALPROD and modify meaning of
2024        second argument
2025      - add a metric based on grid cell area to SEAICE_SCALPROD; update
2026        results of offline_exf_seaice.dyn_jfnk
2027      - compute initial residual norm in seaice_jfnk based on SEAICE_SCALPROD
2028    o pkg/aim_v23:
2029      - fix an other bug in dissipation heating (grid-cell area was missing).
2030    o model/src + pkg/seaice:
2031      - add global (multi-tile) linear solver for pair of tri-diagonal system
2032        along X and Y lines, respectively for U and V component.
2033        Note: 1) MPI and cube-exchange not yet coded.
2034            2) probably not accurate for poorly conditioned / large size problem.
2035      - add option for SEAICE_LSR to use global (multi-tile) tri-diagonal solver;
2036        default: not compiled and not used.
2037    o pkg/seaice:
2038      - first attempt at a multi-threaded fgmres solver for the JFNK solver:
2039        introduce bi/bj loops and use global_sum_tile_rl instead of
2040        mpi_allreduce in seaice_fgmres.F
2041      - improve diagnostics output for fgmres solver (seaice_fgmres.F)
2042      - replace a few unnecessary goto statements by if-blocks  (seaice_fgmres.F)
2043      - add a verification experiment for JFNK in offline_exf_seaice
2044    o verification:
2045      - change (for now, only fwd test) offline_exf_seaice experiment:
2046        use a re-entrant channel with idealized coastline (trapezoidal shape)
2047        at southern boundary to explore seaice dynamics and thermodynamics
2048        with simple forcing. Main set-up has dynamics+thermo and SST relaxation;
2049        secondary test (input.thsice) use thermodynamics only with SST relaxation.
2050      - add seaice-dynamics only secondary test using LSR and pkg/thsice advection.
2051    o pkg/exf:
2052      - disable "sstExtrapol" when Nr=1
2053    o verification:
2054      - add new experiment "cheapAML_box" (simple 1 layer set-up from Bruno Deremble)
2055        to test pkg/cheapaml.
2056    o pkg/aim_v23 & pkg/shap_filt:
2057      - fix dissipation heating (erroneous gravity multiplication factor).
2058    o pkg/seaice:
2059      - remove unused field pressPre from jfnk solver
2060      - rename two subroutines in seaice_preconditioner.F
2061    o eesupp/src:
2062       - S/R MDSFINDUNIT avoids reserved unit numbers (scrUnit1, eeDataUnit ...)
2063    o pkg/seaice/seaice_preconditioner.F: fix preconditioner once again
2064       - remove wrong parts of the rhs and the lhs (were in there
2065         because I did not understand the concept of this preconditioner)
2066       - add an exchange between u- and v-sweep. This increases communication
2067         by a factor of two but improves the convergence of jfnk. Ideally,
2068         one would like the u- and v-sweep to be independent. So far within
2069         undocumented ifdefs
2070       - reorganize the extra computations for printing the residuals
2071    o tools/genmake2:
2072      - comment out the "mpif.h" include in NetCDF test programm (for MPI built)
2073        since it's not necessary (and was preventing to use MNC in some cases).
2074    
2075    checkpoint64a (2012/11/16)
2076    o pkg/autodiff:
2077      - improve pkg-internal logical parameter switch (inAd/inFwd mode) so that
2078        autodiff_readparms.F no longer depends on calling order (within
2079        packages_readparms.F) and no longer requires to include ${PKG}_PARMS.h):
2080        rename param turnFreeDriftInAdMode to SEAICEuseFREEDRIFTswitchInAd
2081        and change param SEAICEuseDYNAMICSinAdMode to SEAICEuseDYNAMICSswitchInAd.
2082    o pkg/obcs:
2083      - adding tidal velocity forcing capability to obcs
2084        for usage example, see verification/seaice_obcs/input.tides
2085    o pkg/seaice:
2086      - turn the LSR-relaxation parameters WFAU/V into runtime parameters
2087        SEAICE_LSRrelaxU/V
2088      - introduce runtime parameter SEAICEetaZmethod (=0 by default)
2089    o pkg/aim_v23:
2090      - implement heating from friction (bottom friction and stratospheric drag).
2091    o pkg/shap_filt:
2092      - fix diagnostic "SHAP_dKE" (was 2 time smaller); implement heating from
2093        dissipation but only for Shap_funct=2, active when addFrictionHeating=T.
2094    o model/src:
2095      - move AddMass common block from DYNVARS.h to FFIELDS.h; allow to read-in
2096        time-constant addMass field from file (addMassFile);
2097      - support for heating due to friction (and Kinetic Energy dissipation):
2098        add option, run-time switch and 3-D field array + support code ; each pkg
2099        or S/R can add heating contribution (if there is a sink of KE); the sum is
2100        accounted for as a Temperature tendency term (EXTERNAL_FORCING_T).
2101    o pkg/seaice:
2102      - complete merge of ITD code into seaice_growth.F
2103        from MITgcm_contrib/torge/itd/code/
2104        no verification so far, but Torge Martin tested
2105        "1-D test case and Beaufort set up;
2106        deliver okay results after 1 model year."
2107      - complete merge of SEAICE_SIZE.h into all relevant routines
2108      - move computation of eta at Z-points into calc_viscosities
2109        + introduce global field etaZ
2110        + add different methods for computing etaZ, for now the old
2111          method (simple averages of eta to Z-points) is hardwired
2112        + replace etaMeanZ by etaZ in seaice_lsr, seaice_calc_residual,
2113          seaice_preconditioner
2114      - simplify computations for SEAICE_ZETA_SMOOTHREG
2115      - seaice_preconditioner:
2116        + replace one remaining press by pressLoc (mistake)
2117        + adjust printing of residuals
2118      - improve I/O of diagnostics of JFNK in seaice_jfnk.F:
2119        + add (SEAICE.h) and rename some counters (initiliased in
2120          seaice_init_fixed.F)
2121        + add _BEGIN/END_MASTER (myThid)  around print statements
2122        + print total number of iterations and failures over SEAICE_monFreq
2123          interval to STDOUT
2124      - move control over output-messages by fgmres to seaice_jfnk to save
2125        some operations
2126      - move resetting initial guess for fgmres outside of seaice_fgmres_driver
2127        in order to make restarts with sol .ne. zero (fgmres with restarts)
2128        (seaice_jfnk.F, seaice_fgmres.F)
2129      - seaice_calc_l/rhs.F: replace maskW/S by maskInW/S; this fixes
2130        a serious convergence problem when open boundaries are involved
2131    o pkg/ggl90: fix computation of control volumes for the case of
2132      ALLOW_GGL90_HORIZDIFF (probably not used very often): move control volumes
2133      up half a grid cell from C-centered to W-centered (pointed out by C. Eden)
2134    o pkg/seaice: simplify seaice_evp by avoiding use of extra fields u/vIceC
2135    o pkg/autodiff
2136      - Add inAdMode switch for SEAICEuseDYNAMICS:
2137        SEAICEuseDYNAMICSinAdMode
2138        (extend logic in ADAUTODIFF_INADMODE_SET)
2139    o pkg/seaice
2140      - Step 1 of merging ice-thickness distribution (ITD) code from
2141        MITgcm_contrib/torge/itd/ (author: Torge Martin)
2142        The code implements concept laid out in Thorndike et al. (1975);
2143        code is enabled via CPP flag SEAICE_ITD
2144        nITD (in SEAICE_SIZE.h) defines number of ice thickness categories;
2145        code is not complete yet!!
2146      - SEAICE_SIZE.h now included in almost all seaice routines
2147    o verification (using seaice):
2148      - switch back seaice-dynamics (+ lower SOLV_MAX_ITERS) in ADM exp.
2149        global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice ; update results.
2150      - compile B-grid dynamics in FW test exp 1D_ocean_ice_column ;
2151      - compile C-grid dynamics with #define SEAICE_ALLOW_JFNK in FW test exp
2152        offline_exf_seaice (previously compiling B-grid).
2153    o pkg/exf:
2154      - fix some STOP conditions in exf_check.F (from Aug 28, modifs did not allow
2155        to specify neither just 1 comp of wind or wind-stress, nor no surface momentum
2156        forcing): just replace CPP option ALLOW_ATM_WIND with run-time param useAtmWind.
2157    o pkg/layers (adjust changes from Sept 19):
2158      - do snap-shot output and fill diagnostics from inside iLa loop (layers_calc.F)
2159        this allows to remove "layers_maxNum" dimension from all layers arrays.
2160    o pkg/layers (adjust changes from Sept 19):
2161      - remove ALLOW_LAYERS_OUTPUT ; fix snap-shot and time-ave output ;
2162      - snap-shot extended to all type of layers (not just the 1rst type);
2163      - remove layers variables when corresponding CPP option is undef.
2164    o pkg/layers:
2165      - rename pkg/layers variable and add new output (layer exist & un-weighted
2166        velocity in layer)
2167    o pkg/seaice:
2168      - simplify (?) ocean-drag coefficent computations by using
2169        the same routine in all three solvers (saves some code lines)
2170      - remove global fields DRAGA and DRAGS from C-grid code and
2171        declare them locally in lsr.F (the only place where they are
2172        still used)
2173      - update AD output of lab_sea.evp (very sensitive anyway).
2174    o pkg/seaice: add Jacobian-free Newton Krylov solver for ice dynamics
2175      (Lemieux et al. 2010, 2012). Turn on with the usual SEAICE_ALLOW_JFNK
2176      and SEAICEuseJFNK=.true. A few things to note:
2177      - involves a FGMRES, that is parallel but very inefficient,
2178        because of many scalar products (global sums) in the Gram-Schmidt
2179        orthogonalization method. Needs to be replaced. Original code
2180        from J.-F. Lemieux
2181      - preconditioner for FGMRES is a stripped down version of LSOR
2182      - SOLV_MAX_ITERS is now used for LSOR as a solver and as a
2183        preconditioner. For the preconditioner, the default is set to 10.
2184      - Jacobian times vector is computed with finite differences
2185      - marginally related to JFNK-solver: add a smooth regularization for
2186        zeta with tanh that will improve convergence (Lemieux and Tremblay,
2187        2009) for any implicit solver (not implemented for EVP because EVP
2188        does not need this regularization in the first place). Define
2189        SEAICE_ZETA_SMOOTHREG in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h to use.
2190    o eesupp/src:
2191      - check in genmake2 that intrinsic S/R flush is available.
2192      - add S/R to flush IO unit (if intrinsic S/R flush is available)
2193      - flush standard & error msg unit before MPI termination
2194      - if debugMode, flush IO unit after printing msg
2195    o pkg/ctrl:
2196      - ctrl_unpack.F, ALLOW_GENARR3D_CONTROL code: fix missing argument in call
2197        to ctrl_set_unpack_xyz.
2198    
2199    checkpoint64 (2012/10/09)
2200    o pkg/shelfice
2201      - in mom_fluxform.F, mom_vecinv.F:
2202        CALL SHELFICE_V_DRAG(bi,bj,k,vFld,KE,KappaRU,vF,myThid)
2203        Bug fix KappaRU -> KappaRV
2204        does not change verification/isomip but may change other setups
2205        (presumably constant KappaRU=KappaRV)
2206      - fix diagnostics SHIU/Vdrag (thanks to Tom Millgate)
2207    o pkg/obcs:
2208      - fixed some indexing bugs in obcs_seaice_sponge.F
2209      - added obcs relaxation subroutines for HSALT and HSNOW
2210      - changes verification/seaice_obcs/results/obcs_seaice_sponge.F
2211    o pkg/seaice:
2212      - add "multicategory" parameterization for snow in analogy to ice,
2213        default is off for now.
2214    o pkg/obcs:
2215      - added obcs_seaice_sponge.F for obcs relaxation of seaice variables;
2216        see verification/seaice_obcs/input.seaiceSponge for example application.
2217      - remove local commom bloc "OBCS_GLOBAL" in obcs_readparms.F and do all the OB
2218        index setting by master-thread. This fix multi-threads Pb in previous modifs.
2219    o pkg/layers :
2220      - add diagnostics to pkg/layers
2221      - move the meat of pkg/layers from layers_calc.F to layers_fluxcalc.F
2222        (from R.Tulloch). Layers_calc.F now calls layers_fluxcalc.F accordingly.
2223    o pkg/generic_advdiff/gad_implicit_r.F :
2224      - fix ADVr diagnostics in case of both implicit vertical advection and diffusion.
2225    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F:
2226      - fix SItflux diagnostics in virtual salt flux + balanceEmpmr case.
2227    o pkg/obcs:
2228      - change default setting of OBCS_UVICE_OLD from defined to undef;
2229      - use new parameter OB_indexNone for null index value (instead of hard-coded 0)
2230        in all pkg/obcs code and in other pkgs; remove k loop in obcs_check_depths.F;
2231      - pass OB_indexNone as (new) argument to S/R CTRL_MASK_SET_[X,Y]Z;
2232      - change OB null index value (OB_indexNone) to -99 ; this fix the problem
2233        with Southern & Western OB at a tile edge (at least in a simple set-up).
2234    o pkg/obcs:
2235      - change settings of OB index in case OB coincides with tile edge (shared by
2236        2 tiles), so that common OB location is registered by both tiles (instead of
2237        only 1). However, for Southern and Western OB, index value = 0 is not
2238        recognized as valid OB index (=default null value) and needs to be fixed.
2239      - modify accordingly OBCS_BALANCE_FLOW and OBCS_MONITOR (avoid double counting)
2240      - new parameter "OB_indexNone" for null index value (for now, still zero)
2241        to replace hard-coded null index value of zero.
2242    o pkg/exch2:
2243      - improve W2_USE_E2_SAFEMODE (faster) and W2_E2_DEBUG_ON:
2244        always check buffer-size (but outside the loop); move checking for valid
2245        index from W2_USE_E2_SAFEMODE to W2_E2_DEBUG_ON; in W2_E2_DEBUG_ON,
2246        print each tile and point connection only if |W2_printMsg|>= 2 and 3.
2247    o pkg/ctrl (pack & unpack):
2248      - in ctrl_pack.F & ctrl_unpack.F, use the same local file-name variable
2249        (locally defined) for different variables (+ remove the variable-specific
2250        file name in CTRL_GENARR.h). For now, only implemented for GENARR2/3D_CONTROL
2251        (to be extended to other local file names in ctrl.h).
2252    o pkg/flt:
2253      - add a FLT_Iter0 option (similar to PTRACERS_Iter0).
2254    o pkg/mdsio:
2255      - fix missing STOP in mdsio_readvec_loc.F (case ioUnit=0) when file is missing
2256    o tools/genmake2:
2257      - add similar dependences for target EXE_AD & EXE_FTL as we have for EXECUTABLE
2258        (added by Alistair in version 1.51 for building without make depend);
2259      - remove Header files list (H_SRC_FILES) from the dependence of targets
2260         ad_input_code.f & ftl_input_code.f (not clear why it was added in the first
2261        place in version 1.23): this save going through staf when unrelated header
2262        file has been modified.
2263       Note: for an intermediate target (e.g., ad_input_code.f or adtaf) without
2264        "make depend" step, still need to do "make links" before "make adtaf".
2265    o eesupp/src (+ few pkg src files) & genmake2:
2266      - finish to remove ALWAYS_USE_MPI in source code that TAF does not see;
2267      - no longer set ALWAYS_USE_MPI in Makefile (was done by genmake2).
2268      - improve genmake2 checking for ALLOW_${PKG} in CPP_OPTIONS.h files (distinguish
2269         upper/lower case ; account for space between "#" and undef/define)
2270    o pkg/flt (with exch2):
2271      - cleaning: fix so that it compiles; move remaining MPI calls out of flt_exch2.F;
2272      - simplify threads synchronisation; fix (many issues) multi-threaded with MPI.
2273    
2274    checkpoint63s (2012/09/05)
2275    o pkg/ecco:
2276      - remove #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL3D brackets.
2277      - add more relevant #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH ones.
2278      - sort out useAtmWind, useSMOOTH, ctrlSmoothCorrel2D.
2279    o pkg/ctrl:
2280      - CTRL_OPTIONS.h : document CPPs related to smoothing; ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL2D/3D,
2281        ALLOW_CTRL_SMOOTH, ALLOW_SMOOTH_CTRL2D, ALLOW_SMOOTH_CTRL3D.
2282      - ctrl.h : document run time params doInitXX, doMainPack, doMainUnpack, doPackDiag,
2283        doSinglePrecTapelev (audodiff param!), ctrlSmoothCorrel2D (new) and
2284        ctrlSmoothCorrel3D (new).
2285        The added ctrlSmoothCorrel2D/3D replace the old ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL2D/3D CPP.
2286      - ctrl_readparms.F : initialise ctrlSmoothCorrel2D/3D and read from namelist.
2287      - ctrl_init.F ctrl_pack.F ctrl_unpack.F : switch off ustress/vstress
2288        controls when useAtmWind, and vice versa.
2289      - ctrl_map_ini_ecco.F : UVEL0, VVEL0, edtaux, edtauy cannot be smoothed as tracers.
2290      - ctrl_get_gen.F : replace #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL2D with
2291          #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH, IF ctrlSmoothCorrel2D, IF useSMOOTH.
2292      - ctrl_map_ini_gen.F : replace #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL3D with
2293          #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH, IF ctrlSmoothCorrel3D, IF useSMOOTH.
2294      - ctrl_set_pack_xy[z].F, ctrl_set_unpack_xy[z].F:
2295        replace ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL2D/3D brackets with ctrlSmoothCorrel2D/3D.
2296    o pkg/smooth:
2297      - remove un-necessary includes.
2298      - remove ALLOW_SMOOTH*D and ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL*D brakets.
2299        Those CPP options were never defined, and not necessary.
2300    o model/src:
2301      - fix CPP brackets in ini_mixing.F (GM_background_K belongs to gmredi).
2302      - standard treatment of useSMOOTH.
2303    o pkg/autodiff:
2304      - add LOGICAL useGGL90inAdMode, useGGL90inFwdMode, useSALT_PLUMEinAdMode,
2305        useSALT_PLUMEInFwdMode allowing to switch off ggl90 and salt_plume adjoint.
2306    o pkg/exch2:
2307      - add "if usingMPI" where it was missing (in exch2_rx?_cube*.template)
2308        + start to remove ALWAYS_USE_MPI in source code that TAF does not see.
2309      - make new S/R W2_MAP_PROCS out of w2_eeboot.F to setup exch2 CommonFlag
2310        and tiles to process mapping.
2311      - re-arrange 3 header files (W2_EXCH2_PARAMS.h, _BUFFER.h & _TOPOLOGY.h)
2312        moving /EXCH2_FILLVAL_RX/ & /W2_EXCH2_COMMFLAG/ to W2_EXCH2_TOPOLOGY.h;
2313        rename "exch2_tProc" to "W2_tileProc" and move seting of e2FillValue_RX
2314        from w2_eeboot.F to w2_readparms.F.
2315    o eesupp/src:
2316      - set exchNeedsMemsync & exchUsesBarrier according to "usingMPI" (instead of
2317        ALWAYS_USE_MPI) + moved from ini_communication_patterns.F to eeset_parms.F;
2318        also move setting of exchCollectStatistics from exch_init.F to eeset_parms.F
2319      - in eedie.F and all_proc_die.F, always call MPI_FINALIZE when ALLOW_USE_MPI
2320        is defined (remove condition on usingMPI) to match cases where MPI_INIT
2321        has been called.
2322      - fix bug I put in previous modif of exch_sm_3d_rx.template (not much used);
2323      - change default (non-MPI) value of myPid (from 1 to 0) to match MPI settings
2324        (so that on 1 proc, get same myPid independently of usingMPI)
2325      - add a stop if multi-procs but usingMPI=F ; stop also if usingMPI=T and
2326        useCubedSphereExchange with EXCH-1 (safer).
2327      - add "if usingMPI" where it was missing (+ start to remove ALWAYS_USE_MPI).
2328    o pkg/ggl90:
2329      - fix bug in filling corner mask array "mskCor" (FILL_CS_CORNER_TR_RL call)
2330        used in ALLOW_GGL90_SMOOTH code.
2331    o pkg/flt:
2332      - fix typo in FLT_WITHOUT_Y_PERIODICITY (the effect was to ignore stopping
2333        floats at the Southern end of the domain).
2334    o eesupp/inc:
2335      - add a list of CPP-options which can be set by Makefile (DEF_IN_MAKEFILE.h);
2336        but not used (and not to be used) anywhere, just for documentation.
2337    o pkg/autodiff, exf, ptracers & seaice (AD & TL output):
2338      - comment out the very nasty "writeBinaryPrec = writeStatePrec" line, since:
2339        a) can damage previously written records in any other multi-record files.
2340        b) if needed, can easily do it cleanly, by calling S/R WRITE_REC_3D_RL/S.
2341    o tools/genmake2:
2342      - define variable MAKE within Makefile and use it in place of 'make';
2343      - update AD_CONFIG.h (if needed) before building any of the executable
2344        (forward, adjoint or tangent-lin); this involves a 2nd invocation of make;
2345        and add the usual #ifndef/#define AD_CONFIG_H in AD_CONFIG.h;
2346      - always print usual warning comment 'this file is automatically generated'
2347        from script convert_cpp_cmd2defines (+ remove this warning from genmake2).
2348    o pkg/cheapaml:
2349      - updated to correspond to the code used in accepted paper (Nico Wienders).
2350    o pkg/exf:
2351        added run time switch useAtmWind to replace ALLOW_ATM_WIND cpp switch.
2352        ALLOW_ATM_WIND now just sets the useAtmWind default (see exf_readparms.F)
2353        and force defines ALLOW_BULKFORMULAE (EXF_OPTIONS.h).
2354    o pkg/exf, autodiff, ctrl, ecco and seaice:
2355        remove ALLOW_ATM_WIND brackets, or replace them with useAtmWind ones.
2356    o pkg/ctrl, ecco:
2357        allow to compile both ALLOW_U/VSTRESS_CONTROL and ALLOW_U/VWIND_CONTROL.
2358        Depending on useAtmWind, one is inactive, and the other is active (see
2359        exf_getffields.F/exf_getsurfacefluxes.F).
2360    o tools/genmake2:
2361      - improve error msg when failing in 2nd test of check_for_broken_Ff
2362      - fix option '-makefile' short-name (-mf according to genmake2 -help)
2363      - source local config file "genmake_local" just after processing the genmake2
2364        command arguments (previously done before processing arg).
2365    o pkg/grdchk:
2366      - add a call to TURNOFF_MODEL_IO for Tangent-Linear run (in this case, call
2367        to this routine from cost_final has been dropped in g_cost_final)
2368      - improve printed information (more explicit msg, no longer using "print *,"
2369         fix fcpertminus printed value).
2370    o model/src:
2371      - move call to COST_INIT_VARIA out of packages_init_variables.F directly
2372        into initialise_varia.F (just after calling PACKAGES_INIT_VARIABLES):
2373        this prevents getting cost-funct reset in adinitialise_varia recomputations.
2374    o pkg/dic:
2375      - move initialisation of "freefe" array from from dic_biotic_forcing.F to
2376        fe_chem.F: this prevents TAF from dropping this initialisation in TLM code.
2377    o pkg/grdchk:
2378      - grdchk_main.F : added CALL GLOBAL_SUM_INT( ierr , myThid )
2379      - grdchk_getadxx.F etc. : omit I/O if ierr.EQ.0
2380    o pkg/autodiff/ctrl/grdchk :
2381      - attempt to sort out what works and what does not,
2382        with regard to I/O, and to warn/stop accordingly.
2383    o pkg/grdchk:
2384      - attempt to fix grdchk in the case of useSingleCpuIO.
2385      - "if ( myProcId .EQ. grdchkwhichproc .AND. ierr .EQ. 0 )"
2386       statements were moved from grdchk_main.F and into
2387       grdchk_getadxx.F grdchk_getxx.F grdchk_setxx.F.
2388      - a global sum is applied to record numbers icvrec/layer
2389       out of grdchk_loc so that they be passed to I/O routines.
2390    o pkg/smooth:
2391      - fix recomputation that appeared with nlfs : use smooth_recip_hFacC,
2392        smooth_hFacW, smooth_hFacS (copied at init_fixed) in 3d case.
2393    o verification/testreport:
2394      - add option '-tlm' for Tangent-Linear test (-adm,-oad,-tlm are all exclusive);
2395      - can also use compressed (gzip) reference output file;
2396      - change format (in pkg/grdchk) of TLM output (+ add forward gradient)
2397        to be easier to collect by testreport.
2398      - update existing TLM output (half out-of-date by more than 3 yrs).
2399      - report NETCDF & LAPACK settings (from genmake2) in output dir.
2400      - report run-time in each individual summary (previously only for AD test);
2401        for TLM test, add also TAF version.
2402      - add daily TLM test on (old) aces cluster + weekly test on baudelaire.
2403    
2404    checkpoint63r (2012/08/15)
2405    o tools/genmake2:
2406      - fix Makefile for target ftlall (+ update files to clean after make ftlall)
2407    o pkg/ecco/ecco_cost_final.F :
2408      - fix fc print statements (to stdout and costfunction0000) so
2409        that the printed value is always after the global sum.
2410    o pkg/seaice/seaice_dynsolver.F :
2411      - fix ice strength assymptote at SEAICE_area_max<1
2412        (no change for the standard case of SEAICE_area_max=1)
2413    o some cleaning:
2414      - pkg source files: ensure that all *.F files from each pkg included the
2415        corresponding ${PKG}_OPTIONS.h file (except stand-alone src file which
2416        only includes CPP_EEOPTIONS.h); fix S/R CTRL_SMOOTH ; update AD experiment
2417        code_ad/*.F src files; add new option-file in pkg/admtlm + corresponding
2418        includes;
2419      - model/src: add PACKAGES_CONFIG.h wherever ALLOW_AUTODIFF[_TAMC] is used.
2420      - ALLOW_DIFFKR_CONTROL: add a stop in S/R CTRL_CHECK in case ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR
2421        is undef; also define /DYNVARS_DIFFKR/ common block in DYNVARS.h when
2422        ALLOW_DIFFKR_CONTROL is defined, to allow to compile and reach this stop.
2423      - update option-file CPP_OPTIONS.h of all AD experiments:
2424        * no longer include PACKAGES_CONFIG.h ;
2425        * includes ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h if PACKAGES_CONFIG.h has been included ;
2426        * def/undef ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR independently of ALLOW_DIFFKR_CONTROL (before
2427          including ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h).
2428    o pkg/cost, pkg/ctrl, pkg/ecco option-file:
2429      - clean-up and split content of old pkg/ecco/ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h file into
2430        separated pkg option-file (done according to old doc from ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h,
2431        not necessary accurate).
2432      - add a template for option-file ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h, mostly empty, in
2433        pkg/autodiff, i.e., the 1rst pkg to compile for adjoint built, with lines to
2434        deliberately break compilation (a remainder that it needs to be customized)
2435      - in pkg/ecco, includes ECCO_OPTIONS.h instead of COST_OPTIONS.h
2436      - rename COST_CPPOPTIONS.h to COST_OPTIONS.h
2437      - rename CTRL_CPPOPTIONS.h to CTRL_OPTIONS.h
2438    o tools/genamke2:
2439      - check for lapack.
2440    o pkg/cost and pkg/ecco : attempt to sort out some of the limiting intricacies.
2441      - pkg/cost.cost_final.F : allow for use of pkg/ecco and pkg/cost cost functions
2442        jointly. The exclusive ifdefs were removed, to add costs terms (when defined)
2443        from both packages.
2444      - the fc global sum in pkg/ecco/ecco_cost_final.F was removed accordingly.
2445      - for objf_atl we use either the pkg/ecco or the pkg/cost term depending on CPPs.
2446      - pkg/ecco and model/src : add CPP brackets around pkg/cost and pkg/ctrl includes
2447        of "CTRL_SIZE.h" "ctrl.h" "ctrl_dummy.h" "optim.h" / "cost.h" accordingly.
2448    o pkg/cost : add comments to explain special and/or untested setups.
2449    o pkg/exf:
2450      - use EXF_OPTIONS.h to set pkg/exf options except if done in ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h
2451        (previously, ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC was controling this switch).
2452    o verification/*/code_ad:
2453      mimimal cleaning of AD experiments ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h option-file:
2454      - reccord when this file is included (define ECCO_CPPOPTIONS_H)
2455      - remove the most obvious obsolete features (e.g., #define ALLOW_COST not
2456        allowed since Oct 2003 in any option-file except in PACKAGES_CONFIG.h)
2457    o pkg/seaice :
2458      - added possibility to change ice strength/PRESS0 relationship to
2459        HEFF, according to the following run time parameters
2460        SEAICEpresPow0 :: HEFF exponent for ice strength below SEAICEpresH0 (integer, >0)
2461        SEAICEpresPow1 :: HEFF exponent for ice strength above SEAICEpresH0 (integer, >0)
2462        SEAICEpresH0   :: HEFF threshold for ice strength            (m)
2463    o pkg/ggl90 :
2464      - added run time flag mxlSurfFlag to include the code that ensure
2465        mixing between first and second level (previously included as a comment)
2466    o verification/1D_ocean_ice_column/input_ad/data.autodiff :
2467      - add test of newly added dumpAdByRec=T option where
2468        we write all records to one file per variable.
2469    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/code_ad/CPP_OPTIONS.h :
2470      - switch to #define ALLOW_BALANCE_RELAX and ALLOW_BALANCE_FLUXES
2471        to check that this code is ok with taf and compiles in adjoint.
2472    o pkg/autodiff :
2473      - added run time param dumpAdByRec : ad dump format switch.
2474        If true then write all records to one file per variable.
2475        Else write one file per record (remains the default).
2476      - revise seaice_ad_dump.F and exf_adjoint_snapshots_ad.F accordingly.
2477    o pkg/seaice:
2478     - Added SEAICEuseTILT run time switch : if set to
2479       false then omit the tilt term in seaice dynamics.
2480     - Fix free drift calculation.
2481    o pkg/shelfice:
2482      When initializing SHELFICEDragQuadratic, set default to be
2483      consistent with shiCdrag in case SHELFICEuseGammaFrict is used,
2484      but retain option to set it independently
2485      (inconsistenty spotted by Veronique Dansereau)
2486    o eesupp/inc:
2487      - in EEPARAMS.h, add real-type constant for some frequently used simple number
2488         (0,1,2,1/2), with name explicitly referring to RS/RL type.
2489    o model/src:
2490      - move balancing of relaxation terms to new S/R balance_relax.F.
2491    o pkg/autodiff:
2492      re-write active I/O high-level (control) S/R:
2493      - rename  S/R ACTIVE_READ/WRITE_RL to ACTIVE_READ/WRITE_3D_RL
2494      - add 1 more argument (useCurrentDir) to replace the "_LOC" 2nd set of S/R.
2495      - use standard pkg/mdsio I/O routines (MDS_READ/WRITE_SEC_XZ/YZ  and
2496        MDS_READ/WRITE_FIELD); change loops to multi-threads.
2497      - update and merge active_file_control_slice.flow into active_file_control.flow
2498      - update the calls in lower level S/R (active_file.F, active_file_g.F and
2499        active_file_ad.F) keeping the argument list and function unchanged.
2500      - also update lower-level "_LOC" version (call same S/R with "useCurrentDir
2501        =.TRUE.") and remove high-level (control) _loc version (not called anymore).
2502      - new low-level active I/O routines, one for each type (RL/RS), for active var
2503        of various (XY,XZ,YZ) shape and level number (arguments: arrShape, myNr);
2504        fix ctrl_init_wet.F & ecco_cost_weights.F by calling the new S/R with the
2505        right type.
2506    o autodiff and RS=real*4:
2507      - call the right type (_RS instead of _RL) of S/R in few output S/R (pkg/exf
2508        ad-monitor and snapshots); disable arrType='RS' in mdsio_gl*.F ;
2509      - change argument type of 3-D mask argument to _RS to match type in the call
2510        (in seaice_cost*.F, ctrl_*_gen.F and *ctrl_bound.F); to be continued.
2511    o pkg/thsice:
2512      - re-anable balanceEmPmR when useSEAICE=T with useThSIce=T.
2513      - option to correct ocean fresh-water flux for imbalance of Atmos+Land
2514        fresh-water flux: uniform correction or proportional to local precip.
2515    o pkg/ctrl:
2516      - new header file CTRL_SIZE.h for parameters maxCtrlArr2D, maxCtrlArr3D
2517      - redefine CPP option ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG_CONTROL to
2518                            ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG_CONTROL_NONGENERIC
2519      - verification/hs94.1x64x5/ tests ALLOW_GENARR{2D,3D}_CONTROL
2520    
2521    checkpoint63q (2012/07/30)
2522    o pkg/autodiff:
2523      note about monitor and snap-shot of ad-variables:
2524      a) need to apply ADEXCH before monitor or output of ad-vars to include
2525       overlap contributions (was done for adjDump but missing for monitor).
2526      b) since ADEXCH implies adding overlap values to interior array, machine
2527       truncation error is expected when adding an ADEXCH call in the middle of
2528       the time-stepping (although mathematically identical).
2529      modifs:
2530      - fix some incorrect type (RL/RS, UV/scalar) in ADEXCH calls and ad-vars
2531        declaration (adEddyPsiX,adEddyPsiY in adcommon.h).
2532      - add new run-time params (dumpAdVarExch & mon_AdVarExch) to select how  to
2533        apply ADEXCH before monitor or snap-shot of ad-variables:
2534           =0 : no ADEXCH ; =1 : do ADEXCH ; =2 : apply ADEXCH on a local copy.
2535      - implement new method (copy+adexch) for snap-shot and monitor of main model
2536        ad-vars (initially not used by default -> output unchanged).
2537      - change default (set to 2) to use new method and update few output_adm.txt
2538        with accurate ad-monitor (global_ocean.90x40x15, tutorial_global_oce_biogeo
2539        and both tutorial_tracer_adjsens tests).
2540      - switch 2 global_ocean.cs32x15 AD-tests to AB-2 (seaice_dynmix & thsice)
2541        and turn off momDissip_In_AB in the 2 other (needed for stable AB-3).
2542    o pkg/ctrl:
2543      enable the use of a variable number (maxCtrlArr2D, maxCtrlArr3D) of
2544      generic control variables via
2545      #define ALLOW_GENARR2D_CONTROL and/or #define ALLOW_GENARR3D_CONTROL
2546      Only required customization should be S/R ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F
2547      (routine in repository contains example)
2548    o pkg/exf:
2549      - fix and refine checking of surface-relaxation setting when using EXF
2550    o verification (adjoint exp):
2551      - reduce length of simulation by half for experiment global_ocean.cs32x15
2552        (std, seaice & seaice_dynmix) and exp tutorial_dic_adjoffline; update output.
2553    o pkg/mom_common (mom_u/v_bottomdrag), pkg/shelfice (shelfice_u/v_drag)
2554      - replace if statements KE.ne.0 with KE.gt.0 to avoid sqrt of negative numbers
2555        of KE that can occur with aggressive optimization
2556      + put quadratic bottom drag calculation in separated loops (only done if
2557        using bottomDragQuadratic)
2558    o model/src: CG2D_NSA
2559      - clean-up:  stop if cg2dNormaliseRHS=T and AUTODIFF
2560         and replace GLOBAL_SUM calls with GLOBAL_SUM_TILE.
2561      - in test-exp that uses CG2D_NSA (bottom_ctrl & tutorial_tracer_adjsens),
2562         change cg2d residual target to be expressed in Wunits (=> do not normalise
2563         RHS ; this fix global_max Pb with TAF); update output.
2564    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens:
2565       improve parameter consistency (and get rid of warnings):
2566       - use deltaTFreeSurf=deltaTtracer (better with NonLin FreeSurf);
2567       - switch Temp Adv Scheme from 81 to 80 (no limiter since theta < 0 is physical)
2568       - use staggerTimeStep (for stability) in som81; use default rotation period.
2569    o pkg/exch2:
2570      - with empty facet: fix compact-format (W2_mapIO=1) definition (was previously
2571        reset to 0 = 1 long line in X)
2572    o pkg/mdsio:
2573      - fix reading of dimensions from meta file for large-size domain
2574    o model/src:
2575      - fix saltIsActiveTr setting for IdealGas eosType (eosType is 6 character long);
2576      - to refine CS-grid check, add logical flag "hasWetCSCorners": true if using
2577        Cubed-Sphere Exch with CS-corners inside the domain;
2578        make new S/R INI_GLOBAL_DOMAIN from code in ini_linear_phisurf.F to calculate
2579        globalArea and to set hasWetCSCorners.
2580      - add warning if usingCurvilinearGrid and momAdvection in flux-form (missing
2581        metric terms); stop if hasWetCSCorners=T and momAdvection in flux-form.
2582      - re-activate the stop if useCDscheme and hasWetCSCorners=T (previously if
2583        useCDscheme and useCubedSphereExchange).
2584    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F :
2585      - compute the SEAICE_DISABLE_HEATCONSFIX term accordingly
2586        for the (.NOT.useRealFreshWaterFlux).OR.(nonlinFreeSurf.EQ.0)
2587        when the previous code was not correct.
2588      - in all cases diagnoze the boundary condition mismatch to SIaaflux
2589      - in the case of useRealFreshWaterFlux.AND.(nonlinFreeSurf.GT.0) add
2590        that term to QNET (essentially to set the melt/freeze water to 0degC).
2591        when SEAICEheatConsFix is true, so that the ocean+ice budget heat is closed.
2592    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.seaice :
2593      - add SEAICEheatConsFix in data.seaice, ensuring closed ocean+ice heat budget.
2594      - add diagnostics (commented out) for budget test using my matlab codes (gcmfaces).
2595      - update results (output.seaice.txt) accordingly.
2596    o verification/lab_sea/input/data.seaice :
2597      - remove SEAICEheatConsFix, which is now be tested
2598        in global_ocean.cs32x15. The presently coded fix
2599        is only consistent with real fresh water + nlfs.
2600      - update results (output.txt) accordingly.
2601    o pkg/salt_plume: added diagnotic for salt tendency (oceSPtnd).
2602    o AD_CONFIG.h file:
2603      - in genmake2: remove "#undef ALLOW_ECCO_OPTIMIZATION" from AD_CONFIG.h;
2604      - remove #include "AD_CONFIG.h" from all included OPTIONS files and
2605        add it explicitly in each fortran src file where it is needed.
2606        motivation: header file AD_CONFIG.h is generated/modified after "make depend"
2607        thus introducing potentially wrong dependency; therefore, better to include
2608        it only where it's really needed, and after any other included OPTIONS file
2609        (less tempting to bring conditional includes according to ALLOW_ADJOINT_RUN
2610        or ALLOW_TANGENTLINEAR_RUN).
2611    
2612    checkpoint63p (2012/07/06)
2613    o pkg/autodiff:
2614      - rename S/R INI_AUTODIFF to AUTODIFF_INIT_VARIA ;
2615      - create new header file "AUTODIFF_PARAMS.h" for pkg/autodiff parameters
2616        which are now read from new parameter file "data.autodiff" (inAdExact
2617        previously in "data", use{KPP/GMRedi/SEAICE}inAdMode previously in data.pkg)
2618      - add file "data.autodiff" in all verification/*/input_ad/ directories.
2619      - add run-time parameter to turn On/Off SEAICEuseFREEDRIFT in adjoint/forward
2620        mode (used in global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice_dynmix test exp.)
2621    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens/
2622      - add extra sub-verification which uses "SOM" advection scheme
2623        (2nd Order-Moment Advection Scheme, Prather Limiter) with
2624          #define GAD_ALLOW_TS_SOM_ADV in GAD_OPTIONS.h
2625        and in data:
2626          multiDimAdvection=.TRUE.,
2627          tempAdvScheme=81,
2628          saltAdvScheme=81,
2629    o model/src:
2630      - introduce ALLOW_BALANCE_RELAX which allow the removal
2631       of the global mean of relaxation terms by setting
2632       balanceThetaClimRelax and balanceSaltClimRelax
2633      - disable balanceEmPmR and balanceQnet in the case when useSeaice.
2634       This case is now treated appropriately in seaice_growth.F
2635    o pkg/seaice:
2636      - do balanceEmPmR and balanceQnet based on the net fluxes
2637        (SItflux) that enter the ocean+ice system rather than QNET
2638        and EMPMR. Works best in real fresh water.
2639      - SIatmFW, SIatmQnet, and SItflux computations had to be moved
2640        out of the diagnotics bloc, and stored in global arrays.
2641    
2642    checkpoint63o (2012/06/29)
2643    o vertical mixing schemes:
2644      - remove unused S/R CALC_BUOYANCY (left from branch-atmos merging)
2645      - replace computation of density (in Function STATE1, opps_calc.F) by a call
2646        to S/R FIND_RHO_SCALAR
2647      - pass sigmaR to S/R PP81_CALC, MY82_CALC (but not yet used) and to GGL90_CALC
2648        and use it for N^2 calculation in ggl90_calc.F (save 2 density computations);
2649        affects output (vermix.ggl90) at truncation level.
2650    o testreport:
2651      - change adjustment of SIZE.h for mpi+mth testing: preserve enough tiles
2652        (nSx,nSy) for the number of threads (from eedata.mth)
2653    o model/src:
2654      - remove 2nd set of calls at the top of initialise_varia.F (Adjoint part)
2655        related to Non_Lin Free-Surf or Bottom-Control (but not longer necessary).
2656    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens/
2657      - compile with ALLOW_CG2D_NSA
2658      - run with nonlinFreeSurf=3
2659      - update reference output_adm.txt
2660    o tools/genmake2:
2661      - add "-DHAVE_NETCDF" to the DEFINES list when NetCDF is available ;
2662        refine usePROFILES switching off (only when NetCDF is not available).
2663    o verification (atmospheric set-up):
2664      - change eosType='IDEALGAS' to eosType='IDEALG' to match variable declaration
2665    o pkg/profiles : refine profiles and files handling.
2666    o model/src and pkg/ecco : introduce run-time switch usePROFILES.
2667    o model/src/the_main_loop.F, forward_step.F and pkg/exf/EXF_OPTIONS.h :
2668      - changes to use model/src/the_main_loop.F rather than the ecco version
2669        in ecco type adjoint runs.
2670    o model/src:
2671      - move computation of recip of grid distance & area from INI_MASKS_ETC to INI_GRID
2672      - move setting of h0Fac[C,W,S] from INI_LINEAR_PHISURF to INI_MASKS_ETC
2673      - update_masks_etc.F: rename SMOOTH*_R4,R8 function to the corresponding type (RS,RL)
2674    o model/src:
2675      - fix S/R UPDATE_CG2D for ALLOW_DEPTH_CONTROL case (was empty before);
2676        update output of test experiment bottom_ctrl_5x5.
2677    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
2678      - implement vertical bi-harmonic diffusion (for now, only for T & S and
2679        only explicitly).
2680    o verification/bottom_ctrl_5x5/
2681      update reference output (results changed quite some time ago,
2682      not sure when; but new reference results look ok in terms of grdchk)
2683    o verification/1D_ocean_ice_column/
2684      For verification purposes, the exact adjoint rather than an approx.
2685      should be used (e.g., to comare against F.D. or TLM).
2686      removed autodiff_inadmode*_ad.F routines in code_ad/
2687      Update results/ accordingly.
2688    o pkg/cal:
2689      - change cal_getdate.F so that output date is function of input time only
2690        (less ambiguous, not mixed up with input iteration number).
2691      - fix calendarDumps for non-zero phase-lag (S/R CAL_TIME2DUMP).
2692    o pkg/diagnostics:
2693      - implement calendarDumps also for stats-diags
2694      - implement calendarDumps also for snap-shot output (negative freq)
2695      - for now, ignores calendarDumps if non-zero phase-lag.
2696    
2697    checkpoint63n (2012/06/04)
2698    o model/src:
2699      - recompute rSurfW & S to ensure consistent column thickness (needed for rStar)
2700        between Sum_k(hFac*drF) and rSurf-rLow, for now only when using pkg/shelfice;
2701      - use h0FacC, W & S to compute hFac_surfC, W & S in calc_surf_dr.F (more
2702        similar to calc_r_star.F); update results of experiment internal_wave and
2703        tutorial_global_oce_in_p (affected @ truncation level).
2704    o pkg/shelfice:
2705      - add parameterisation of advective-diffusive flux into the ice shelf
2706        according to Holland and Jenkins (1999), eq.22-33, as suggested by Jan De Ryd
2707      - simply eps3/3a computation
2708    o eesupp:
2709     - add new CPP option (DISCONNECTED_TILES) to disconnect tiles (no exchange
2710       between tiles, just fill-in edges assuming locally periodic subdomain) and
2711       add corresponding exchange subroutines (EXCH0);
2712     - new CG-solver version (_EX0) for disconnected-tiles special case.
2713    o model/src (CG-solvers):
2714     - modify Single-Reduction version (CG2D_SR) in case cg2dMaxIters is reached
2715       (similar final residual output and max-Iter number as with standard version);
2716     - allows to store and use lowest-residual solution (standard & _SR versions);
2717     - cleaning up (remove old, commented out code, LETS_MAKE_JAM ...).
2718     - by default, also compile CG2D_SR version (define ALLOW_SRCG in CPP_OPTIONS.h)
2719    o eesup/src:
2720     - global_vec_sum.F cleaning: add a BARRIER ; update comments ; remove ndef
2721       ALWAYS_USE_MPI (no longer needed after fixing usingMPI settings - March 2012)
2722    o pkg/salt_plume added to lab_sea/input_ad.noseaicedyn
2723    
2724    checkpoint63m (2012/04/27)
2725    o pkg/shelfice:
2726     - account for partical cells in surface level below ice-shelf for hydrostatic
2727       pressure calculion (set uniformFreeSurfLev to F); update isomip experiments.
2728    o ad test experiments:
2729     - update and rename to "ad_optfile.local" local AD-optfile specific to a
2730       particular adjoint verification experiment (in verification/*/code_ad/)
2731    o pkg/seaice & pkg/exf:
2732     - Part two of ECCO-CLIVAR code merges.
2733       Completes merge of seaice area relax. code.
2734       Requires unified CPP option EXF_ALLOW_SEAICE_RELAX
2735       to be set in EXF_OPTIONS.h since this pkg controls its I/O
2736       (and avoids second CPP option in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h)
2737     - change default value of costIceStart & costIceEnd to a valid date.
2738     - add snowPrecip to HSNOW in seaice_growth
2739    o pkg/ptracers:
2740     - move ptracers summary and setup check into separated S/R ; add a check for
2741       valid PTRACERS_Iter0 value (error+stop or just warning).
2742    o pkg/cal (+ pkg/ecco):
2743     - avoid calling a S/R with 2 times the same arg (FWD: unless both are only used
2744       as input; and for AD, unless both are not differentiable (e.g., k index)).
2745    o model/src:
2746     - define internal flag "uniformFreeSurfLev" (=T when free-surface level-index
2747       is everywhere k=1) to speed-up some calculations (by pass kSurf reference);
2748       temporary set to usingZCoords value (to be changed to F when using shelfice).
2749     - hydrostatic pressure: implement partial cell near the surface also for
2750       Z-coordinates (for the case where uniformFreeSurfLev=F); replace test on
2751       usingZCoords with test on uniformFreeSurfLev where needed (in NonHyd code).
2752    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_init.F:
2753     - add a formal parameter to s/r ctrl_init_rec to print
2754       xx_$(ctrl_valiable)_file for easier debugging
2755     - move call of cal_* routines into the if-block where they are really
2756       needed so that xx_$(ctrl_variable)_period can be 0 or -12 without having
2757       to specify a startdate
2758    o pkg/seaice:
2759     - update comments in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h (+ similar update of lab_sea/code and
2760       global_ocean.cs32x15/code versions).
2761     - turn on seaice Multi-category (in data.seaice, SEAICE_multDim=7) for
2762       verification experiment global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice and update results.
2763    o pkg/exf:
2764     - new S/R EXF_GETFIELD_START to return starting-time of a forcing field
2765       (according to useExfYearlyFields).
2766    o pkg/cal:
2767     - move calendar setting & summary (previously in cal_readparams.F) into new
2768       S/R CAL_INIT_FIXED to be called later in the initialisation process, once
2769       length of the simulation is set (after SET_PARMS call); This is an attempt
2770       to fix Pb when, e.g.: pkg/longstep, modifies the length of the run.
2771     - For safety: keep a record of pkg/cal parameter settings status
2772               to allow to STOP if one pkg/cal S/R is called too early.
2773     - add a stop in all basic pkg/cal subroutines if called before setting is done.
2774     - modify cal_getdate.F: stop when nothing was returned;
2775       if called with myIter=-1, simply retrun modelBaseDate (1,2 = startDate_1,_2);
2776       this allows to remove "cal.h" from seaice_read_parms.F & init_mnc_vars.F.
2777    
2778    checkpoint63l (2012/04/04)
2779    o pkg/bbl:
2780      - fix call to FIND_RHO_2D in bbl_calc_rho.F (case multi-tiles per proc);
2781        update global_with_exf output.yearly.txt file.
2782    o pkg/cal:
2783      - start to clean-up cal_set.F ; fix for the case where baseTime is non-zero.
2784      - remove 2 unsused and very short (1 line only) functions ;
2785      - remove unsused subroutines from AD-Diff list.
2786    o model/src:
2787      - start to implement clean wait to stop in initialization S/R (config_check.F,
2788         packages_check.F, ini_parms.F and pkg/obcs/obcs_check.F + pkg/mypackage)
2789    o folowing PRINT_MESSAGE changes:
2790      - remove reminder multiple print to the same file (STDOUT) when multi-threads.
2791  o pkg/bbl:  o pkg/bbl:
2792    - modification so it can work with z*    - modification so it can work with z*
2793    - replace deltaT with dTtracerLev(k) for asynchronous time stepping    - replace deltaT with dTtracerLev(k) for asynchronous time stepping
