4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o adjoint with OpenAD:
8      - move OpenAD-specific files from verification/OpenAD/code_oad_all to a new
9        package openad.  This package has to be compiled for all runs with OpenAD
10        instead of specifying code_oad_all as a modification directory.
11      - link the fortran templates from tools/OAD_support to the build directory
12        for preprocessing to avoid conflicts between different setups compiled
13        simultaneously and simplify cleanup.
14    o pkg/exf:
15      - in exf_getforcing.F: comment out most of the EXCH calls (fields used by
16        main model or other pkgs are exchanged in EXF_MAPFIELDS).
17    o model/src:
18      - do_stagger_fields_exchanges.F: skip EXCH calls when using pkg/offline
19        (similar to do_fields_blocking_exchanges.F).
20    o tools/genmake2:
21      - remove TAF output src code just before calling staf (when not doing a fresh
22        built, will stop if things go wrong with staf).
23      - fix target "adobj" (left from TAF version-2 transition)
24    o pkg/diagnostics:
25      - add a parameter to track the status of pkg/diagnostics activation;
26        this replace/extend the use of logical param "settingDiags" (to check
27        when adding diag to the list) to also check any DIAGNOSTICS_[]FILL* call.
28        New S/R to print error message and stop when pkgStatus is not right.
29      - to try: add a warning when "data.diagnostics" exist but useDiagnostics=F.
30    
31    checkpoint64m (2013/08/13)
32    o model/inc:
33      - move FCORI_MACROS.h from PARAMS(_MACROS).h to GRID_MACROS.h (left from
34        8 yrs ago modif when Coriolis arrays were moved from PARAMS.h to GRID.h)
35    o pkg/kpp & aim_v23:
36      - only call DIAGNOSTICS_FILL when useDiagnostics=TRUE.
37    o pkg/seaice:
38      - restore (last time on 2011/12/24) ability to compile pkg/seaice with
39        undefined pkg/exf ALLOW_ATM_TEMP or ALLOW_RUNOFF CPP-options.
40      - only call DIAGNOSTICS_FILL when useDiagnostics=TRUE.
41    o eesupp/src:
42      - fix check for overlap-size argument (myOLn.GT.MAX_OLY_EXCH)
43        in exch1_rx[_ad].template (thanks to Francois Lefeuvre report).
44    o switch to TAF version-2:
45      - add flow directives to "freeze" naming convention for ad-routines that
46        are used in I/O routines of adjoint state and associated common blocks
47        that are used in adcommon.h (backward compatible with version-1)
48      - update all ad-optfiles (in tools/adjoint_options + few local to some
49        verification exp) to switch to latest TAF version (currently 2.5.5);
50        merge "*_mpi" adoptfiles into the corresponding non-mpi (but commented
51        out except for diva).
52      - the major change with TAF version-2 is that both the differentiated
53        routines and the forward routines (new) are returned as part of the TAF
54        output source code. Update genmake2 accordingly.
55      - new output for AD experiment tutorial_global_oce_biogeo (better AD gradient
56        with version-2 when compared to TLM or FWD gradient); other experiments
57        output show minor changes (machine truncation level); update the few AD &
58        TLM output with 12 matching digits only (some prior to version-2 switch).
59    
60    checkpoint64l (2013/08/05)
61    o model/src:
62      - in dynamics.F, skip the call to CALC_VISCOSITY if momViscosity=F
63      - main_do_loop.F: no longer includes additional (AUTODIFF) header files
64        when using TAF but only if using OpenAD.
65    o pkg/mom_common+fluxform+vecinv:
66      - always set horiz. viscosity arrays to background value before calling
67        MOM_CALC_VISC (in MOM_FLUXFORM & MOM_VECINV) and call S/R MOM_CALC_VISC
68        only when using variable horiz. viscosity (useVariableVisc=T);
69      - simplify mom_vecinv.F (only 1 block for momViscosity).
70    o pkg/mom_common: variable horiz. viscosity in NH code
71      - move horiz-viscosity 3-D arrays viscAh_W & viscA4_W (used in calc_gw.F)
72        from model/inc/NH_VARS.h to pkg/mom_common/MOM_VISC.h
73      - store in common block (in MOM_VISC.h) logical parameters: useHarmonicVisc,
74        useBiharmonicVisc & useVariableVisc.
75      - fix old bug (already in 1rst implementation of variable horizontal viscosity
76        in calc_gw.F, version 1.27, 2006/06/20):
77        horizontal bi-harmonic viscosity in gW was missing when wiscA4W=0
78        even if variable bi-harmonic viscosity (e.g., viscA4Grid) was non-zero.
79      - change background horiz viscosity in vertical momentum (gW) to always be
80        viscAhW,viscA4W (instead of switching to viscAhD, viscA4D when using
81        any type of variable viscosity, e.g., viscAh/4Grid)
82      - change default value of viscAhW,viscA4W to viscAhD,viscA4D (instead of
83        viscAh,viscA4) which default to viscAh,viscA4 :  this avoid missing
84        horiz. viscosity in W eq when just setting viscAhD/Z,viscA4D/Z (since
85        default viscAh,viscA4 is zero).
86    o model/src:
87      - extend length of drC & recip_drC from Nr to Nr+1.
88    o Divided Adjoint (DIVA) with MPI:
89      - genmake2: do not create local ./mpi_headers dir when no file to copy into.
90      - remove option ALLOW_DIVIDED_ADJOINT_MPI (replaced by ALLOW_DIVIDED_ADJOINT
91        and ALLOW_USE_MPI) from model/src code and from ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h.
92    
93    checkpoint64k (2013/07/23)
94    o tools/OAD_support:
95      - avoid the need for file "oadtempflile" in insertTemplateDir.bash
96        and remove it from genmake2.
97    o tools/build_options:
98      - remove MPI_HEADER_FILES_INC setting (no longer used) and comment out
99        MPI_HEADER_FILES list (let genmake2 find the missing headers)
100    o verification/halfpipe_streamice:
101      - change to driving stress formulation; update both Fwd & AD output.
102    o tools/genmake2 and Divided Adjoint with MPI:
103      - remove default setting of MPIINCLUDEDIR from $MPIHOME (always been broken);
104      - only create local ./mpi_headers dir if using MPI and MPIINCLUDEDIR is set;
105      - add new variable (LOCAL_MPI_HEADERS, replace MPI_HEADER_FILES_INC) in
106        Makefile, which is set by genmake2, and check which mpi-headers are needed.
107        Note: need to update adjoint_options/adjoint_diva_mpi accordingly.
108      - update target "CLEAN" (to also remove ./mpi_headers/ dir).
109    o testreport:
110      - changes for Divided Adjoint Run: when file "run_ADM_DIVA" is present,
111        perform additional runs (number of additional runs is "add_DIVA_runs" taken
112        from file run_ADM_DIVA ; should match "nchklev_3" in file "code_ad/tamc.h").
113    o verification/lab_sea (AD test):
114      - change to test Divided Adjoint Run in this set-up (both standard AD test
115        and 2 secondary AD test: noseaice + noseaicedyn); drop the evp AD test.
116    o pkg atm_ & ocn_compon_interf:
117      - remove cpl_earlyExpImpCall=F option (was mainly a hack added for the old
118        staggerTimeStep implementation) and disable (retired) corresponding
119        parameter.
120    o pkg/offline:
121      - comment out unused field-array: ICEM, ConvectCount, hflx[01], icem[01];
122      - add S/R OFFLINE_CHECK to print offline parameter summary
123        and stop if loading a file that is not used;
124      - enable to calculate GMRedi tensor, KPP mixing and convective index
125        when the corresponding file(s) is/are not specified (but pkg is used).
126      - comment out resetting of monitorFreq (to endTime) since it still useful
127        for monitoring CFL numbers and checking offline fields.
128    o OpenAD:
129      - do not define OAD_DEBUG (in tools/adjoint_options/adjoint_oad) to get
130        smaller standard output) and generate new (smaller) output (on baudelaire
131        using gfortran with -ieee) for exp. tutorial_tracer_adjsens
132    o model/src:
133      - call EXTERNAL_FORCING_SURF outside bi,bj loops (in do_oceanic_phys.F),
134        (where external_forcing_adjust was called) and change list of arguments;
135      - merge external_forcing_adjust.F into external_forcing_surf.F
136      - put surface relaxation of SST & SSS in new S/R (forcing_surf_relax.F)
137        which also contains balancing surface relaxation (ALLOW_BALANCE_RELAX,
138        previously in file "balance_relax.F", now removed); remove corresponding
139        arrays in FFIELDS.h.
140      - EXTERNAL_FORCING_SURF is now called when using pkg/offline; implement
141        a hack for getting back surfaceForcingS (loaded from file) when using
142        ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX (pkg/dic, in DIC_OPTIONS.h) in offline set-up.
143      - update output of AD test experiment global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice_dynmix
144        (was getting only 11 digits for AD-grad, due to different truncation
145         error in AD code).
146    
147    checkpoint64j (2013/07/04)
148    o pkg/offline:
149      - to enable the use of other features with pkg offline (e.g., obcs),
150        also call S/R DO_OCEANIC_PHYS in offline run - more modifs to come.
151      - comment out "allowFreezing" (now active) in 2 offline testing exp.
152    o pkg/exf ALLOW_RUNOFTEMP
153      - fix sign and make compatible with temp_EvPrRn .NE. UNSET_RL
154      - ahdded RUNOFTEMP test to verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.seaice
155      - changes verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/results/output.seaice.txt
156    o pkg/atm_phys:
157      - allows to add some damping on uVel,vVel (strength only function of k).
158    o verification, ad-tests:
159      - reduce length of the simulation for AD test: global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice,
160        global_ocean_ebm and offline_exf_seaice.thsice.
161    o verification/halfpipe_streamice:
162      - found a bug in s/r pkg/streamice/streamice_advect_thickness which caused
163        flux input boundary conditions to be ignored; a fix for this bug changed
164        verification results for forward test.
165      - add adjoint test.
166    o pkg/ptracers:
167      - allow to restart without SOM pickup (resetting SOM to zero).
168    o pkg/gmredi:
169      - New parameterisation for the calculation of K and (GM_PsiX,GM_PsiY) added.
170      - It uses mixing length theory and suppression by steering level effects to
171        calculate a diffusivity used in the Redi tensor (see Bates et al., submitted
172        to JPO, for more details).
173      - It also uses the diffusivity to calculate an eddy induced streamfunction
174        based on a PV closure (rather than a buoyancy closure as in GM).
175      - New files added to pkg/gmredi:
176        gmredi_k3d.F calculates the diffusivity for the Redi tensor and the eddy
177          induced overturning streamfunction (called from gmredi_calc_tensor)
178        gmredi_calc_eigs.F calculates the eigenvalues and eigenvectors required
179          for use in gmredi_k3d
180        gmredi_calc_urms.F calculates the the rms eddy velocity used to calculate
181          the eddy diffusivity
182    
183    checkpoint64i (2013/06/18)
184    o pkg/cheapaml:
185      - take src files from MITgcm_contrib/verification_other/offline_cheapaml/code
186        that enable the use of seaice (pkg/thsice thermo & pkg/seaice dynamics)
187        with pkg/cheapaml.
188    o utils/python: add subpackage for cubed sphere function, first example is
189        simple cs.pcol to plot 2D fields on a map
190    o pkg/streamice:
191      - This is a new package in MITgcm, which solves dynamic equations for ice
192         sheets and ice streams
193      - At the moment it is independent of atmosphere/ocean dynamics, or any
194        other physical packages in MITgcm, even ShelfIce (although it is anticipat-
195        ed that this will change)
196      - There is a new verification exercise that tests it, halfpipe_streamice,
197        evolves a 40x80 km ice stream/ice shelf (at coarse resolution) in a
198        rectangular embayment
199      - halfpipe_streamice is forward-only for now, will have TAF test soon
200      - for questions, email dgoldber@mit.edu
201    o pkg/thsice:
202      - fix filling of snow-precip diagnostic (SIsnwPrc) (left from the removing
203        of snowPrc from common bloc, on May 2nd, thsice_step_fwd.F revision 1.40);
204      - remove diagnostics 'SI_FrcFx' ( now identical to 'SI_Fract' with new
205         call sequence: ice-Thermo(thsice),ice-Dyn,ice-Advect );
206      - allow precip from pkg/cheapaml to make snow over seaice.
207    o pkg/cfc:
208      - move in separated header file (CFC_ATMOS.h) time-serie arrays of Atmos CFC
209      - remove atmos CFC 2-D arrays from common bloc (now local variables)
210      - change some hard-coded constant to run time parameter for reading and
211        and interpolating atmospheric CFC ; keep same default as previously.
212      - more flexible reading of Atmos CFC (number of records no longer hard-coded)
213      - put arguments in standard order: myTime, myIter, myThid
214      - use standard S/R GET_PERIODIC_INTERVAL for time interpolation of
215        atmospheric CFC ; fix for the case myIter < PTRACERS_iter0.
216      - fix calculation of surf tendencys for partial-cell and/or Non-Lin Free-Surf
217      - new routine to print summary of CFC params and check for consistency.
218    o pkg/seaice: add uice/vice to the parameter list of s/r seaice_advdiff,
219      similar to thsice_advdiff.
220      Note that for the B-grid case the routine parameters uc/vc are overwritten.
221    o pkg/cfc:
222      - change time interpolation for atmospheric CFC-11 (now same as for CFC-12);
223        update output (CFC-11) of experiment cfc_example and tutorial_cfc_offline.
224      - fix interpolation of atmphspheric CFC between Sorthern and Northern
225        hemisphere value.
226    o pkg/seaice:
227      - allow to use seaice dynamics without pkg/exf (e.g., using pkg/cheapaml)
228    o pkg/seaice: add Adams-Bashforth2 time discretization for ice dynamics;
229                  so far only for JFNK-solver, turn on with SEAICEuseAB2 = .TRUE.
230      - requires an additional time level that is stored in the pickup
231      - you can start with AB2 from a pickup without this time level with
232        pickupStrictlyMatch = .false.
233    
234    checkpoint64h (2013/05/26)
235    o pkg/cheapaml:
236      - replace one ()**.5 with SQRT + use temp var "cdu = tau/Du" (coare3_flux);
237        affect machine truncation (but exp cheapAML_box still pass with 13 digits).
238      - consistent treatment of uWind,vWind location: assume everywhere in
239        pkg/cheapaml that they are on C-grid (@ uVel,vVel location)
240        (Note: was already the case for Tair,Qair advection);
241        add option (INCONSISTENT_WIND_LOCATION) to recover old results.
242      - compute diabatic forcing only in the interior (excluding overlap regions)
243      - fill in array "Qsw" (for short-wave heating);
244      - add diagnostic for precip ; fill-in diagnostics for cheapAML state vars
245        before any update (consistent with MITgcm state var diagnostics);
246      - cheapaml_fields_load.F & cheapaml_init_varia.F : only fill outer edges if
247        non periodic ; + adjusted for uWind,vWind (C-grid).
248    o pkg/seaice:
249      - remove dependence of pkg/seaice versus pkg/exf (file: pkg/pkg_depend) and
250        add explicitly pkg/exf in experiments that currently use pkg/seaice.
251      - allows to compile pkg/seaice without pkg/exf.
252    o tools/OAD_support:
253      - use a local copy (ourRWCPinBd) to ensure index ourRWCP stays within bounds
254        of array "ourStepOf" in function rvNextAction (revolve.F90).
255    o pkg/aim_compon_interf renamed to pkg/atm_compon_interf
256      - change pkg name (to be used with other atmospheric physics pkg)
257        but by-pass CVS when making the new pkg so that we keep the CVS history.
258    o pkg/offline:
259      - call OFFLINE_FIELDS_LOAD from pkg/offline/offline_init_varia.F
260        (previously called from pkg/dic_surfforcing_init.F)
261    o model/src:
262      - re-order sequence of calls within packages_init_variables.F, using
263        standard order, except for:
264         DIAGNOSTICS_INIT_VARIA and OFFLINE_INIT_VARIA (called @ the top),
265         CTRL_MAP_INI and OBCS_INIT_VARIABLES (called @ the bottom)
266    o new pkg: atm_phys
267      - add entry point and source code (previously in contrib
268          verification_other/atm_gray/code_gray/) for new pkg "atm_phys"
269        (atmospheric physics pkg from P. O'Gorman and T. Schneider, JCl, 2008).
270      - re-order sequence of calls within packages_readparms.F,
271         packages_init_fixed.F and packages_write_pickup.F
272        (but skip packages_init_variables.F because of TAF issues).
273      - update contrib/*/atm_gray/ experiment.
274    o pkg/seaice (ITD code):
275      - simplify and fix the writing of pickup-files for ITD case
276    o pkg/seaice (ITD code):
277      - introduce floe size dependent lateral melt for ITD case;
278      - cleaning (avoid division by zero, change to f77 syntax, remove tabs)
279      - update seaice_itd experiment main output.
280    o pkg/thsice:
281      - remove snowPrc from common block THSICE_FLUX, in THSICE_VARS.h and
282        declared it locally (without bi,bj) in thsice_main.F & aim_do_physics.F;
283        changed accordingly pkg/atm2d.
284    
285    checkpoint64g (2013/05/01)
286    o pkg/exf ALLOW_RUNOFTEMP
287      - if defined,  river and glacier runoff temperature can be read-in from
288        runoftempfile; runoftempfile needs to have same format as runofffile
289    o pkg/thsice (& pkg/bulk_force):
290      - In case Energy-Reference-Level (ERL) is used (temp_EvPrRn=0), account
291        for energy content of Precip + RunOff & Evap (like with pkg/exf).
292      - change computation domain to always be the interior (without overlap).
293      - fix bug (wrong overlap) when using EXF and stressReduction > 0.
294    o verification/tutorial_global_oce_biogeo:
295      - add preliminary OpenAD setup (still has problems)
296    o pkg/seaice:
297      - turn some parameters for choosing the convergence criterion of
298        the inexact Newton method (JFNK) into runtime parameters for convenience
299      - clean up seaice_calc_viscosities.F: remove/retire two options for
300        SEAICetaZmethod (1,2), introduce area weighting for method 3; this changes
301        the results of lab_sea/input because a division has been replaced by
302        a multiplication with the reciprocal (sumNorm)
303      - modify offline_exf_seaice/input.dyn_jfnk/data.seaice to improve
304        convergence of solver (changes results, of course), and to test some
305        new features
306    o model/src:
307      - remove unused (since Aug 2006) S/R SET_WRITE_GLOBAL_PICKUP and its call.
308      - remove unused forcing field "dQdT" and associated parameter "dQdTFile".
309      - move forcing adjustment (balancing surface forcing) in specific S/R
310        where might also be applied exchanges (if needed) to forcing arrays.
311    o pkg/shelfice:
312      - allow to specify the Ice-Shelf mass per unit area (instead of
313        shelficeLoadAnomaly) and do the conversion from one to the other
314      - move loading from file of shelficeLoadAnomaly from SHELFICE_INIT_VARIA
315        to SHELFICE_INIT_FIXED: (a) avoid some TAF recompution issues and
316        (b) will be loaded in time (before calling INI_PRESSURE) in case it is
317        needed in phi0surf for initial pressure calculation when useDynP_inEos_Zc
318      - update isomip experiment forward output (get machine truncation error
319        from conversion shelficeLoadAnomaly -> shelficeMass -> shelficeLoadAnomaly)
320    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
321      revise data.seaice in input.thermo and input_ad and update results accordingly
322        HO = 0.2, SEAICE_areaLossFormula = 2,
323        SEAICE_growMeltByConv = .TRUE.,
324        SEAICE_doOpenWaterMelt = .TRUE.,
325      Improve consistency with input.thsice and fix the spurious 500m ice corners
326    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15:
327      - set Energy Reference Level to liq. water @ 0 degC: temp_EvPrRn=0.,
328        in icedyn (thsice+seaice-dyn) test and update output.
329    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
330      - adjust list of tested variables (with testreport) and update
331        standard test output with better slection of monitored fields.
332    o pkg/cd_code:
333      - swtich off Adams-Bashforth on the 1rst iteration. Update output of
334        experiment lab_sea.hb87
335    o tools/genmake2:
336      - change default makedepend from the system default to tools/xmakedepend:
337        When no makedepend is specified, select tools/xmakedepend it the test pass,
338        otherwise select the system default (if exist and pass the test) or
339        try to build cyrus-makedepend ; stop if none of the 3 works.
340    o pkg/exf & pkg/thsice:
341      - In case Energy-Reference-Level (ERL) is used (temp_EvPrRn=0), account
342        for energy content of Precip + RunOff & Evap. Assumes:
343       1) Rain has same temp as Air.
344       2) Snow has no heat capacity (consistent with seaice & thsice pkgs)
345       3) Run-Off comes at the temp of surface water (with same Cp)
346       4) Evap over ocean is released to the Atmos @ surf-temp (=SST); should be
347        put directly into Latent Heat flux & should use water-vapor heat capacity.
348       5) Evap over snow/seaice (pkg/thsice) assumes constant Lf+Lv (consistent
349        with snow having no Cp) => water vapor is released to Atmos @ 0^oC (=ERL).
350    o pkg/seaice: simplify the use of CPP flags in JFNK-related files
351        (compile when SEAICE_ALLOW_JFNK is defined)
352    o pkg/thsice:
353      - fix oceanic flux diagnostics & timeave (left from new sequence of calls
354        implementation): move THSICE_AVE call after the advection (called directly
355        from thsice_do_advect.F).
356    o verification/global_ocean.90x40x15 and OpenAD:
357      New experiment for OpenAD is identical to the one in input_ad except that
358        multiDimAdvection=.FALSE.,
359      There is still an issue with this.
360    o pkg/thsice:
361      - account for ice velocity (ocean relative velocity) in turbulent heat flux
362        at the base of the ice; update output of global_ocean.cs32x15 (icedyn)
363        and offline_exf_seaice (main test).
364    
365    checkpoint64f (2013/03/31)
366    o verification/OpenAD:
367      - new (smaller, without OAD_DEBUG) output_oadm.txt generated using gfortran.
368    o verification/isomip, pkg/shelfice and OpenAD:
369      - add OpenAD setup to this exp and make shelfice package work with OpenAD
370    o verification/tutorial_global_oce_biogeo:
371      - update AD and TLM output after turning off ALLOW_FE (in DIC_OPTIONS.h)
372    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
373      - replace adjoint experiment (now similar to fwd input.thermo/ setup).
374    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens, pkg/ptracers and OpenAD:
375      - add OpenAD setup to this exp and make ptracers package work with OpenAD
376    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp.F:
377       mask the asymmetric contribution of the ice-ocean stress (when
378       the turningAngle is non-zero) over open water to avoid stripes
379       in the EVP-solutions after many EVP-substeps. This does not change
380       the verification experiment (because turningAngle=0 in that experiment),
381       but will affect other EVP solutions with turningAngle.ne.0
382    o verification, AD & TLM output:
383      - new TAF version 2.3.10 (previously 2.3.8) add more parenthesis in multiple
384        additions and multiplications which affect results at machine truncation
385        level. Update few AD output (1D_ocean_ice_column, bottom_ctrl_5x5,
386        lab_sea.noseaicedyn & offline_exf_seaice) and TLM output
387        (1D_ocean_ice_column & tutorial_tracer_adjsens.som81) which had only 12
388        digits of matching.
389    o pkg/seaice:
390       modify lsr-algorithm so that it vectorizes AND converges by using a
391       "zebra" method: split vector loop into two with step size 2; this
392       solves a general convergence problem for the JFNK solver on a vector
393       computer. It has the potential to even improve convergence for
394       non-vector machines, but it does change the results so it is turned
395       off by default. To turn on define CPP-flags SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR and
396       SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h
397    
398    checkpoint64e (2013/03/05)
399    o pkg/ecco and several verification experiments:
400       Remove special versions of the_model_main.F, the_main_loop.F, forward_step.F
401       from ecco package, and revert to unified routine in model/src/
402       Adjust verification experiments accordingly, especially gloal_oce_llc90
403       Should conclude long-standing work by Gael to reconsile the_main_loop with
404       ECCO and will enable OpenAD's revolve loop in ECCO setup.
405    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
406      - implement compressible flow method for multi-dim advection (similar to
407        gad_som_advect.F); add new option "GAD_MULTIDIM_COMPRESSIBLE" (since
408        TAF generates many recomputations) to use it; no yet coded with implicit
409        vertical advection.
410      - change experiment advect_cs (new output) and advect_xy (same output)
411        to test compressible flow multi-dim advection.
412    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
413      - fix SOM advection for unusual cases (linear Free-Surf in r*, other
414        cases where linear Free-Surf is not @ k=1, e.g., useShelfIce)
415    o pkg/seaice:
416      - fix bug in the no-slip implementation in seaice_calc_strainrates.F, this
417        bug affects two verification experiments (lab_sea and lab_sea.hb87),
418        recover old (wrong) results by setting noSlipFac = 2. in
419        seaice_calc_strainrates.F;
420      - add another averaging method for etaZ (etaZmethod=3), a mix of 2 and 0
421      - add runtime parameter SEAICE_JFNKepsilon for that finite difference
422        gradient in the Jacobian times vector operation (s/r seaice_jacvec)
423      - fix line search in seaice_jfnk.F (s/r seaice_jfnk_update)
424    o pkg/seaice: reorganize seaice_lsr.F to be able to reuse more code:
425      - new subroutines seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
426      - introduce loop bounds i/jmin/max to be able to use a restricted
427        additive Schwarz method, but not used for now.
428      - rename SEAICE_CALC_LSR_COEFFS into SEAICE_LSR_CALC_COEFFS
429      - use new subroutines seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v in s/r seaice_preconditioner
430    o OpenAD support
431       Reorganize S/R call for overall time-stepping loop to facilitate
432       OpenAD revolve loop replacement
433       (new S/R main_do_loop.F)
434    o model/src:
435      - add 3-D array 3rd dimension to argument list of S/R ADAMS_BASHFORTH2/3;
436      - pkg/cheapaml: remove local S/R ADAMS2d and use instead standard S/R
437        ADAMS_BASHFORTH2.
438    o pkg/cheapaml:
439      - add new parameter (default=F, same as before) to disable full domain
440        (including land) periodicity in X & Y dir.
441      - new S/R CHEAPAML_COPY_EDGES to copy relaxation field into edges of
442        prognostics field ; merge the 2 S/R cycle_2d_tracer and timestep_2d_tracer
443        into single S/R CHEAPAML_TIMESTEP.
444    
445    checkpoint64d (2013/02/17)
446    o pkg/monitor (angular momentum):
447      - do not add Eta contribution to the total AM if using rigid-lid;
448      - correct for Adams-Bashforth in zonal-wind part (instead of in AM_eta).
449      - horizontal discretisation: compute Zonal wind contribution separately for
450        each component (instead of from cell centered averaged) and use the 4
451        grid-cell corner averaged value of Omega*(R*cos_Phi)^2 in AM_eta part.
452      - Check that AM is conserved with linear dynamics (momAdvection=F and linear
453        FreeSurf) if using vectorInvariant momentum.
454    o model/src (horizontal grid):
455      - move initialisation of all horizontal grid arrays to null value
456        from specific horizontal grid S/R to main S/R INI_GRID;
457      - add 2 new arrays to project model C-grid velocity on to zonal direction
458        (similar to AngleCosC & -AngleSinC but at U and V point location) and
459        compute them in S/R CALC_GRID_ANGLES.
460    o pkg/seaice: replace a hard coded parameter by a runtime parameter
461        SEAICE_JFNK_tolIter
462    o pkg/seaice: introduce a restricted additive Schwarz (RAS) method in
463        preconditioner for JFNK (run LSR into the overlaps as far as possible,
464        i.e OLx/y-2, but overwrite the solution in the overlaps)
465      - extend loop range in seaice_calc_viscosity
466      - add new parameters SEAICE_OLx/y (default = OLx/y-2)
467      - add flexible loop ranges to seaice_preconditioner, seaice_calc_lsr_coeffs
468      - slightly modify loops in tridiagonal solver lsr-preconditioner
469      - by default remove the extra exchange in seaice_preconditioner with a
470        replacement of an undocumented CPP flag by SEAICE_PRECOND_EXTRA_EXCHANGE
471      - modify offline_exf_seaice so that old results without RAS are reproduced
472        for output.dyn_jfnk.txt
473      in seaice_fgmres.F (unrelated to RAS)
474      - add a cpp-flag option for a re-ordered mapping (potentially more
475        efficient), but because this changes the results, turn it off by
476        default
477      - replace the save statement by local common blocks
478    o utils/matlab:
479      - fix tile-offset in rdmnc.m when output was produced using EXCH2.
480      - update cs_grid/bk_line scripts to use load_grid.m (in utils/matlab)
481        instead of local script "load_cs.m".
482    o pkg/seaice:
483      - fix a serious bug in seaice_fgmres.F, s/r seaice_scalprod, connected
484        to the scalarProductMetric and the unrolling. By chance this does not
485        change the verification experiment, because of the particular domain
486        decomposition
487    o pkg/diagnostics:
488      - change default missing_value from UNSET_RL to -999.
489    o pkg/layers: improve vectorization of layers_fluxcalc.F
490      - step 1: split loops, make TatU/V 2D arrays. This alone reduces the cpu
491        time spent in this routine by more than a factor of 3 on an NEC-SX8
492      - step 2: replace search algorithm by a bisection algorithm found in
493        Press et al. Numerical Recipes in Fortran. This algorithm can be
494        vectorized and finds the correct bin in approx. log2(Nlayers) steps.
495        For now, use this algorithm only for TARGET_NEC_SX defined.
496      - moved the search algorithm into a separate subroutine, that is kept
497        within the same file for automatic inlining.
498      - modified catching potential errors
499    o pkg/ecco:
500      - add compile switches ALLOW_SHALLOW_ALTIMETRY and ALLOW_HIGHLAT_ALTIMETRY.
501    o model/src, pkg/autodiff, pkg/ctrl, pkg/grdchk :
502      - modifications for ALLOW_GENTIM2D_CONTROL
503      -- forward_step.F, the_main_loop.F : pass options and arrays for adjoint tapes.
504      -- load_fields_driver.F : add call to CTRL_MAP_GENTIM2D( myTime, myIter, myThid )
505      -- add xx_gentim2d0/1 in ctrl_ad_check_lev1_dir.h checkpoint_lev1_directives.h etc
506      -- use ctrl_swapffields.F (new) instead of exf_SwapFFields.F in ctrl_get_gen.F
507    o model/src:
508      - account for moist thermodynamics in (dry) potential temperature equation;
509        update results of experiments: aim.5l_cs (x2), fizhi-cs (std + aqualev)
510        and cpl_aim+ocn.
511      - also switch to standard compiler (gfortran, was using ifort previously)
512        for fizhi-cs experiments reference output.
513    o pkg/ctrl:
514      - 1st step toward generic time-varying control variable (2D) via CPP option
515        ALLOW_GENTIM2D_CONTROL
516      - note new namelist ctrl_nml_genarr in data.ctrl
517    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15:
518      - switch off OLD_THSICE_CALL_SEQUENCE (both forward and AD code) to use new
519        thsice calling sequence and update "output.icedyn.txt" output file.
520    o pkg/ptracers:
521      - from Ryan A.: code to allow to restart a tracer at regular time interval
522        specifying a reset frequency and a reset-phase (for each tracers).
523    o pkg/thsice:
524      - implement new sequence of calls for thsice+seaice:
525          previously:   ice-Dyn,ice-Advect,ice-Thermo(thsice)
526          new sequence: ice-Thermo(thsice),ice-Dyn,ice-Advect
527      - allows (with temporary CPP option "#define OLD_THSICE_CALL_SEQUENCE"
528        in CPP_OPTIONS.h) to recover old sequence;
529      - update diagnostics for Intermediate State thsice diagnostics: now filled
530        just before advection (instead of just after advection in old sequence);
531      - update output of experiment offline_exf_seaice (standard test);
532      - in global_ocean.cs32x15 exp., postpone output.icedyn.txt update
533        by setting #define OLD_THSICE_CALL_SEQUENCE in CPP_OPTIONS.h
534    o pkg/aim_v23:
535      - use tiled array for aim_CO2 and surface wind speed for export to coupler;
536      - use standard pkg/mdsio routines to read & write CO2 pickup file;
537      - in-line S/R AIM_AIM2DYN_EXCHANGES in aim_do_physics.F;
538      - Implement new sequence of calls for seaice advection (with thsice and
539        seaice diffusion): do ice advection after ice-Thermodynamic (previously
540        was done before); change aim_do_physics.F (split the bi,bj loops block);
541      - use same CPP option (OLD_THSICE_CALL_SEQUENCE) to recover old sequence;
542    o pkg/thsice:
543      - add a missing EXCH of sIceLoad in thsice_main.F (ocean set-up) for the case
544        where just seaice diffusion is used without seaice-dynamics.
545    
546    checkpoint64c (2013/01/18)
547    o pkg/seaice:
548      - add a parameter JFNKres_tFac that can replace JFNKres_t
549        (= JFNKres_tFac*JFNKresidual before JFNK solver)
550      - add a line search option to the JFNK solver
551      - move update of u/vIce and computation of initial residual into a separate
552        routine (same file); makes the code a little easier to read (?)
553      - the line search requires computation of the residual and for some reason
554        I cannot do the update of u/vIce at the beginning of the Newton loop
555        without changing the results, so we move computation of the new residual
556        also to the end of the Newton loop, even without the line search
557    o pkg/mdsio:
558      - write missing value (corresponding to undefined array value) to meta files;
559        skip this if missing value is one (UNSET_RL would be a better value for the
560        case of undefined missing value but it's current the default missing-value);
561        Also update mdsio_read_meta.F (reading timeInterval & missing-value).
562    o pkg/exf & thsice:
563      - for diagnostics purpose, fill-up and update Qsw array (+ fill the
564        diagnostics) even when SHORTWAVE_HEATING is #undef;
565    o verification/cfc_example:
566      - turn on pkg/layers with pkg/diagnostics (to test pkg/layers and to
567        illustrate how to use it).
568    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
569      in input: add SEAICErestoreUnderIce=.TRUE., and reduce size of forcing
570        files to only one time-record.
571      in input.thermo: narrow the 2 bands of low initial ice-concentration near
572        N & S edges; switch on SEAICErestoreUnderIce=T; use pkg/diagnostics for
573        snapshot output; same mcPheePiston value as in thsice with
574        surf-current=0.2m/s.
575      in input.thsice: similar set-up as in input.thermo (channel with same seaice
576        initial conditions).
577    o verification/cfc_example:
578      - update file "data" with more standard choice (default rotationPeriod,
579        exactConserv=T, reduce ivdc_kappa to 10, remove multiDimAdvection=F,
580        set deltaTFreeSurf to deltaTtracer) and update the output.
581    o pkg/layers:
582      - fix bolus part so that it compiles with #undef GM_BOLUS_ADVEC;
583      - ensure that "layers_bolus" is switched to False when useGMRedi=False.
584    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
585      - set all {field}period to zero for constant-in-time forcing (not tested
586        anywhere else).
587    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
588      - dyn_lsr  : use pkg/seaice S/R (instead of pkg/thsice) to advect sea-ice;
589      - dyn_jfnk : use pkg/thsice S/R (instead of pkg/seaice) to advect sea-ice.
590    o model/src:
591      - implement Finite-Volume method for (hydrostatic) presure gradient
592        from S.-J. Lin (QJRMS 1997), for atmosphere using sigma-coordinate.
593    o pkg/seaice: implement EVP* by Lemieux et al. (2012).
594      - In order to be compatible with the default EVP code, this requires changing
595        the EVP code around a little; and because any small change immediately
596        breaks the lab_sea.hb87 verification experiment, the reference output is
597        updated two times (each time the remaining aggrement was only 2 digits):
598        - after replacing 1/dt by 1*recip_dt with a precomputed recip_dt
599        - after replacing 1/(1+0.5*dt/tau) by a/(a+1), with a=2*tau/dt
600        The adjoint test lab_sea.evp also needed to be updated.
601      - Turn on EVP* by setting SEAICE_deltaTevp as before, and setting
602        SEAICEuseEVPstar=.true.; for EVP* SEAICE_deltaTevp does not need to be
603        a factor of SEAICE_deltaTdyn, and you can set the number of EVP steps
604        explicitly with SEAICEnEVPstarSteps (thereby overriding the default of
605        INT(SEAICE_deltaTdyn/SEAICE_deltaTevp)). Controlling EVP* is deliberately
606        kept obscure, because I need to test it a little more.
607    o pkg/cheapaml:
608      - fix few incorrect type (_RL/_RS) in subroutine calls.
609    o pkg/seaice:
610      - new S/R SEAICE_MAP_RS2VEC (similar to SEAICE_MAP2VEC) to map _RS arrays
611        to _RL vector; this fixes JFNK code when compiling with "-use_r4" option.
612    o model/src:
613      - add a warning if using select_rStar=2 with nonlinFreeSurf <> 4;
614        change (in input_ad*/data) select_rStar from 2 to 1 for AD verification
615        experiments global_ocean.cs32x15 & tutorial_tracer_adjsens (+ update output)
616    o pkg/cheapaml:
617      - replace "273.1 _d 0" by celsius2K in pkg/cheapaml/cheapaml.F and
618        update output of experiment cheapAML_box.
619      - store in CHEAPAML.h coeffs ssq[0:2] for saturation specific humidity,
620        and set them only in one place (cheapaml_readparms.F).
621      - replace "273.16 _d 0" by celsius2K & replace "3.14159 _d 0" by constant "PI"
622      - remove re-setting of main-model parameter "celsius2K" (in cheapaml_readparms)
623        and re-setting of cheapAML params "lath" & "p0" (in cheapaml_init_varia).
624    o model/src/the_main_loop.F:
625      - fix revision 129 : need both ALLOW_ECCO and ALLOW_ECCO_EVOLUTION.
626    o pkg/seaice:
627      - remove legacy branch code.
628      - retire SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY and SEAICE_CAP_HEFF accordingly.
629    o verification/*/code*/SEAICE_OPTIONS.h:
630      - remove documentation for retired CPP flags (SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY,
631        SEAICE_CAP_HEFF).
632    o pkg/cheapaml:
633      - use standard routine (S/R GET_PERIODIC_INTERVAL) to decide when it is time
634        to load new forcing fields.
635      - add missing "_d 0" where it's needed; + some editing (improve indentation).
636      - remove switch to "-r8" compiler option (no longer needed) in verification
637        cheapAML_box, keep same output (small trucation error differences).
638    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
639      - add thermodynamics only test.
640    o verification/cheapAML_box:
641      - split the domain in 8 (2x4) tiles; add MPI and multi-threaded test;
642        keep same output (same 14 digits for cg2d).
643      - switch on "-r8" compiler option (some numerical values are missing
644        the "_d 0") and update output (only 6 digits for cg2d were preserved).
645    
646    checkpoint64b (2012/12/24)
647    o pkg/cheapaml:
648      - remove un-used variables (Qnet,EmPmR) from pickup files.
649      - store tendency of advected variables into cheapaml pickup file
650        and fix the AB-2 restart.
651    o verification/offline_exf_seaice and lab_sea adjoint:
652      - switch to new code (#undef SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY).
653      - switch to 4 time steps in offline, consistent with lab_sea.
654      - match parameters from SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY branch in data.seaice.
655      - update results after change of experiment seaice.
656    o pkg/seaice:
657      - remove option SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY; has been replaced with run-time
658        parameter SEAICE_multDim. Issue a warning if SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY is
659        still defined since SEAICE_multDim needs to be set to MULTDIM value (from
660        SEAICE_SIZE.h) to recover previous #define SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY default.
661    o model/src:
662      - add run-time parameter to select CG2D solver minimum-residual solution
663        (in case of a poor convergence).
664    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F
665      - move calculation of matrix coefficients into new
666        S/R SEAICE_CALC_LSR_COEFFS; for now this routine remains in the same
667        file; the main purpose of this change is to be able to reuse the code
668        in S/R SEAICE_PRECONDITIONER
669      - modify the computation of the residual so that the mass of sea-ice
670        is not used twice; this simplifies the calculations, but since
671        the residual is never used except when LSR_mixIniGuess.ge.4---and this is
672        not tested in testreport---this does not affect the testreport results.
673    o verification/seaice_obcs:
674      - disable SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY; reset input files to match those of
675        verification/lab_sea/input.salt_plume; changes results/output.txt*
676    o model/src:
677      - adapt quasi-hydrostatic formulation to work with p or p* coordinate.
678    o pkg/seaice:
679      - improve description of parameters in seaice_fgmres.F and start
680        cleaning up the code
681      - change name of SCALPROD to SEAICE_SCALPROD and modify meaning of
682        second argument
683      - add a metric based on grid cell area to SEAICE_SCALPROD; update
684        results of offline_exf_seaice.dyn_jfnk
685      - compute initial residual norm in seaice_jfnk based on SEAICE_SCALPROD
686    o pkg/aim_v23:
687      - fix an other bug in dissipation heating (grid-cell area was missing).
688    o model/src + pkg/seaice:
689      - add global (multi-tile) linear solver for pair of tri-diagonal system
690        along X and Y lines, respectively for U and V component.
691        Note: 1) MPI and cube-exchange not yet coded.
692            2) probably not accurate for poorly conditioned / large size problem.
693      - add option for SEAICE_LSR to use global (multi-tile) tri-diagonal solver;
694        default: not compiled and not used.
695    o pkg/seaice:
696      - first attempt at a multi-threaded fgmres solver for the JFNK solver:
697        introduce bi/bj loops and use global_sum_tile_rl instead of
698        mpi_allreduce in seaice_fgmres.F
699      - improve diagnostics output for fgmres solver (seaice_fgmres.F)
700      - replace a few unnecessary goto statements by if-blocks  (seaice_fgmres.F)
701      - add a verification experiment for JFNK in offline_exf_seaice
702    o verification:
703      - change (for now, only fwd test) offline_exf_seaice experiment:
704        use a re-entrant channel with idealized coastline (trapezoidal shape)
705        at southern boundary to explore seaice dynamics and thermodynamics
706        with simple forcing. Main set-up has dynamics+thermo and SST relaxation;
707        secondary test (input.thsice) use thermodynamics only with SST relaxation.
708      - add seaice-dynamics only secondary test using LSR and pkg/thsice advection.
709    o pkg/exf:
710      - disable "sstExtrapol" when Nr=1
711    o verification:
712      - add new experiment "cheapAML_box" (simple 1 layer set-up from Bruno Deremble)
713        to test pkg/cheapaml.
714    o pkg/aim_v23 & pkg/shap_filt:
715      - fix dissipation heating (erroneous gravity multiplication factor).
716    o pkg/seaice:
717      - remove unused field pressPre from jfnk solver
718      - rename two subroutines in seaice_preconditioner.F
719    o eesupp/src:
720       - S/R MDSFINDUNIT avoids reserved unit numbers (scrUnit1, eeDataUnit ...)
721    o pkg/seaice/seaice_preconditioner.F: fix preconditioner once again
722       - remove wrong parts of the rhs and the lhs (were in there
723         because I did not understand the concept of this preconditioner)
724       - add an exchange between u- and v-sweep. This increases communication
725         by a factor of two but improves the convergence of jfnk. Ideally,
726         one would like the u- and v-sweep to be independent. So far within
727         undocumented ifdefs
728       - reorganize the extra computations for printing the residuals
729    o tools/genmake2:
730      - comment out the "mpif.h" include in NetCDF test programm (for MPI built)
731        since it's not necessary (and was preventing to use MNC in some cases).
732    
733    checkpoint64a (2012/11/16)
734    o pkg/autodiff:
735      - improve pkg-internal logical parameter switch (inAd/inFwd mode) so that
736        autodiff_readparms.F no longer depends on calling order (within
737        packages_readparms.F) and no longer requires to include ${PKG}_PARMS.h):
738        rename param turnFreeDriftInAdMode to SEAICEuseFREEDRIFTswitchInAd
739        and change param SEAICEuseDYNAMICSinAdMode to SEAICEuseDYNAMICSswitchInAd.
740    o pkg/obcs:
741      - adding tidal velocity forcing capability to obcs
742        for usage example, see verification/seaice_obcs/input.tides
743    o pkg/seaice:
744      - turn the LSR-relaxation parameters WFAU/V into runtime parameters
745        SEAICE_LSRrelaxU/V
746      - introduce runtime parameter SEAICEetaZmethod (=0 by default)
747    o pkg/aim_v23:
748      - implement heating from friction (bottom friction and stratospheric drag).
749    o pkg/shap_filt:
750      - fix diagnostic "SHAP_dKE" (was 2 time smaller); implement heating from
751        dissipation but only for Shap_funct=2, active when addFrictionHeating=T.
752    o model/src:
753      - move AddMass common block from DYNVARS.h to FFIELDS.h; allow to read-in
754        time-constant addMass field from file (addMassFile);
755      - support for heating due to friction (and Kinetic Energy dissipation):
756        add option, run-time switch and 3-D field array + support code ; each pkg
757        or S/R can add heating contribution (if there is a sink of KE); the sum is
758        accounted for as a Temperature tendency term (EXTERNAL_FORCING_T).
759    o pkg/seaice:
760      - complete merge of ITD code into seaice_growth.F
761        from MITgcm_contrib/torge/itd/code/
762        no verification so far, but Torge Martin tested
763        "1-D test case and Beaufort set up;
764        deliver okay results after 1 model year."
765      - complete merge of SEAICE_SIZE.h into all relevant routines
766      - move computation of eta at Z-points into calc_viscosities
767        + introduce global field etaZ
768        + add different methods for computing etaZ, for now the old
769          method (simple averages of eta to Z-points) is hardwired
770        + replace etaMeanZ by etaZ in seaice_lsr, seaice_calc_residual,
771          seaice_preconditioner
772      - simplify computations for SEAICE_ZETA_SMOOTHREG
773      - seaice_preconditioner:
774        + replace one remaining press by pressLoc (mistake)
775        + adjust printing of residuals
776      - improve I/O of diagnostics of JFNK in seaice_jfnk.F:
777        + add (SEAICE.h) and rename some counters (initiliased in
778          seaice_init_fixed.F)
779        + add _BEGIN/END_MASTER (myThid)  around print statements
780        + print total number of iterations and failures over SEAICE_monFreq
781          interval to STDOUT
782      - move control over output-messages by fgmres to seaice_jfnk to save
783        some operations
784      - move resetting initial guess for fgmres outside of seaice_fgmres_driver
785        in order to make restarts with sol .ne. zero (fgmres with restarts)
786        (seaice_jfnk.F, seaice_fgmres.F)
787      - seaice_calc_l/rhs.F: replace maskW/S by maskInW/S; this fixes
788        a serious convergence problem when open boundaries are involved
789    o pkg/ggl90: fix computation of control volumes for the case of
790      ALLOW_GGL90_HORIZDIFF (probably not used very often): move control volumes
791      up half a grid cell from C-centered to W-centered (pointed out by C. Eden)
792    o pkg/seaice: simplify seaice_evp by avoiding use of extra fields u/vIceC
793    o pkg/autodiff
794      - Add inAdMode switch for SEAICEuseDYNAMICS:
795        SEAICEuseDYNAMICSinAdMode
796        (extend logic in ADAUTODIFF_INADMODE_SET)
797    o pkg/seaice
798      - Step 1 of merging ice-thickness distribution (ITD) code from
799        MITgcm_contrib/torge/itd/ (author: Torge Martin)
800        The code implements concept laid out in Thorndike et al. (1975);
801        code is enabled via CPP flag SEAICE_ITD
802        nITD (in SEAICE_SIZE.h) defines number of ice thickness categories;
803        code is not complete yet!!
804      - SEAICE_SIZE.h now included in almost all seaice routines
805    o verification (using seaice):
806      - switch back seaice-dynamics (+ lower SOLV_MAX_ITERS) in ADM exp.
807        global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice ; update results.
808      - compile B-grid dynamics in FW test exp 1D_ocean_ice_column ;
809      - compile C-grid dynamics with #define SEAICE_ALLOW_JFNK in FW test exp
810        offline_exf_seaice (previously compiling B-grid).
811    o pkg/exf:
812      - fix some STOP conditions in exf_check.F (from Aug 28, modifs did not allow
813        to specify neither just 1 comp of wind or wind-stress, nor no surface momentum
814        forcing): just replace CPP option ALLOW_ATM_WIND with run-time param useAtmWind.
815    o pkg/layers (adjust changes from Sept 19):
816      - do snap-shot output and fill diagnostics from inside iLa loop (layers_calc.F)
817        this allows to remove "layers_maxNum" dimension from all layers arrays.
818    o pkg/layers (adjust changes from Sept 19):
819      - remove ALLOW_LAYERS_OUTPUT ; fix snap-shot and time-ave output ;
820      - snap-shot extended to all type of layers (not just the 1rst type);
821      - remove layers variables when corresponding CPP option is undef.
822    o pkg/layers:
823      - rename pkg/layers variable and add new output (layer exist & un-weighted
824        velocity in layer)
825    o pkg/seaice:
826      - simplify (?) ocean-drag coefficent computations by using
827        the same routine in all three solvers (saves some code lines)
828      - remove global fields DRAGA and DRAGS from C-grid code and
829        declare them locally in lsr.F (the only place where they are
830        still used)
831      - update AD output of lab_sea.evp (very sensitive anyway).
832    o pkg/seaice: add Jacobian-free Newton Krylov solver for ice dynamics
833      (Lemieux et al. 2010, 2012). Turn on with the usual SEAICE_ALLOW_JFNK
834      and SEAICEuseJFNK=.true. A few things to note:
835      - involves a FGMRES, that is parallel but very inefficient,
836        because of many scalar products (global sums) in the Gram-Schmidt
837        orthogonalization method. Needs to be replaced. Original code
838        from J.-F. Lemieux
839      - preconditioner for FGMRES is a stripped down version of LSOR
840      - SOLV_MAX_ITERS is now used for LSOR as a solver and as a
841        preconditioner. For the preconditioner, the default is set to 10.
842      - Jacobian times vector is computed with finite differences
843      - marginally related to JFNK-solver: add a smooth regularization for
844        zeta with tanh that will improve convergence (Lemieux and Tremblay,
845        2009) for any implicit solver (not implemented for EVP because EVP
846        does not need this regularization in the first place). Define
847        SEAICE_ZETA_SMOOTHREG in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h to use.
848    o eesupp/src:
849      - check in genmake2 that intrinsic S/R flush is available.
850      - add S/R to flush IO unit (if intrinsic S/R flush is available)
851      - flush standard & error msg unit before MPI termination
852      - if debugMode, flush IO unit after printing msg
853    o pkg/ctrl:
854      - ctrl_unpack.F, ALLOW_GENARR3D_CONTROL code: fix missing argument in call
855        to ctrl_set_unpack_xyz.
856    
857    checkpoint64 (2012/10/09)
858    o pkg/shelfice
859      - in mom_fluxform.F, mom_vecinv.F:
860        CALL SHELFICE_V_DRAG(bi,bj,k,vFld,KE,KappaRU,vF,myThid)
861        Bug fix KappaRU -> KappaRV
862        does not change verification/isomip but may change other setups
863        (presumably constant KappaRU=KappaRV)
864      - fix diagnostics SHIU/Vdrag (thanks to Tom Millgate)
865    o pkg/obcs:
866      - fixed some indexing bugs in obcs_seaice_sponge.F
867      - added obcs relaxation subroutines for HSALT and HSNOW
868      - changes verification/seaice_obcs/results/obcs_seaice_sponge.F
869    o pkg/seaice:
870      - add "multicategory" parameterization for snow in analogy to ice,
871        default is off for now.
872    o pkg/obcs:
873      - added obcs_seaice_sponge.F for obcs relaxation of seaice variables;
874        see verification/seaice_obcs/input.seaiceSponge for example application.
875      - remove local commom bloc "OBCS_GLOBAL" in obcs_readparms.F and do all the OB
876        index setting by master-thread. This fix multi-threads Pb in previous modifs.
877    o pkg/layers :
878      - add diagnostics to pkg/layers
879      - move the meat of pkg/layers from layers_calc.F to layers_fluxcalc.F
880        (from R.Tulloch). Layers_calc.F now calls layers_fluxcalc.F accordingly.
881    o pkg/generic_advdiff/gad_implicit_r.F :
882      - fix ADVr diagnostics in case of both implicit vertical advection and diffusion.
883    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F:
884      - fix SItflux diagnostics in virtual salt flux + balanceEmpmr case.
885    o pkg/obcs:
886      - change default setting of OBCS_UVICE_OLD from defined to undef;
887      - use new parameter OB_indexNone for null index value (instead of hard-coded 0)
888        in all pkg/obcs code and in other pkgs; remove k loop in obcs_check_depths.F;
889      - pass OB_indexNone as (new) argument to S/R CTRL_MASK_SET_[X,Y]Z;
890      - change OB null index value (OB_indexNone) to -99 ; this fix the problem
891        with Southern & Western OB at a tile edge (at least in a simple set-up).
892    o pkg/obcs:
893      - change settings of OB index in case OB coincides with tile edge (shared by
894        2 tiles), so that common OB location is registered by both tiles (instead of
895        only 1). However, for Southern and Western OB, index value = 0 is not
896        recognized as valid OB index (=default null value) and needs to be fixed.
897      - modify accordingly OBCS_BALANCE_FLOW and OBCS_MONITOR (avoid double counting)
898      - new parameter "OB_indexNone" for null index value (for now, still zero)
899        to replace hard-coded null index value of zero.
900    o pkg/exch2:
901      - improve W2_USE_E2_SAFEMODE (faster) and W2_E2_DEBUG_ON:
902        always check buffer-size (but outside the loop); move checking for valid
903        index from W2_USE_E2_SAFEMODE to W2_E2_DEBUG_ON; in W2_E2_DEBUG_ON,
904        print each tile and point connection only if |W2_printMsg|>= 2 and 3.
905    o pkg/ctrl (pack & unpack):
906      - in ctrl_pack.F & ctrl_unpack.F, use the same local file-name variable
907        (locally defined) for different variables (+ remove the variable-specific
908        file name in CTRL_GENARR.h). For now, only implemented for GENARR2/3D_CONTROL
909        (to be extended to other local file names in ctrl.h).
910    o pkg/flt:
911      - add a FLT_Iter0 option (similar to PTRACERS_Iter0).
912    o pkg/mdsio:
913      - fix missing STOP in mdsio_readvec_loc.F (case ioUnit=0) when file is missing
914    o tools/genmake2:
915      - add similar dependences for target EXE_AD & EXE_FTL as we have for EXECUTABLE
916        (added by Alistair in version 1.51 for building without make depend);
917      - remove Header files list (H_SRC_FILES) from the dependence of targets
918         ad_input_code.f & ftl_input_code.f (not clear why it was added in the first
919        place in version 1.23): this save going through staf when unrelated header
920        file has been modified.
921       Note: for an intermediate target (e.g., ad_input_code.f or adtaf) without
922        "make depend" step, still need to do "make links" before "make adtaf".
923    o eesupp/src (+ few pkg src files) & genmake2:
924      - finish to remove ALWAYS_USE_MPI in source code that TAF does not see;
925      - no longer set ALWAYS_USE_MPI in Makefile (was done by genmake2).
926      - improve genmake2 checking for ALLOW_${PKG} in CPP_OPTIONS.h files (distinguish
927         upper/lower case ; account for space between "#" and undef/define)
928    o pkg/flt (with exch2):
929      - cleaning: fix so that it compiles; move remaining MPI calls out of flt_exch2.F;
930      - simplify threads synchronisation; fix (many issues) multi-threaded with MPI.
931    
932    checkpoint63s (2012/09/05)
933    o pkg/ecco:
934      - remove #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL3D brackets.
935      - add more relevant #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH ones.
936      - sort out useAtmWind, useSMOOTH, ctrlSmoothCorrel2D.
937    o pkg/ctrl:
938      - CTRL_OPTIONS.h : document CPPs related to smoothing; ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL2D/3D,
939        ALLOW_CTRL_SMOOTH, ALLOW_SMOOTH_CTRL2D, ALLOW_SMOOTH_CTRL3D.
940      - ctrl.h : document run time params doInitXX, doMainPack, doMainUnpack, doPackDiag,
941        doSinglePrecTapelev (audodiff param!), ctrlSmoothCorrel2D (new) and
942        ctrlSmoothCorrel3D (new).
943        The added ctrlSmoothCorrel2D/3D replace the old ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL2D/3D CPP.
944      - ctrl_readparms.F : initialise ctrlSmoothCorrel2D/3D and read from namelist.
945      - ctrl_init.F ctrl_pack.F ctrl_unpack.F : switch off ustress/vstress
946        controls when useAtmWind, and vice versa.
947      - ctrl_map_ini_ecco.F : UVEL0, VVEL0, edtaux, edtauy cannot be smoothed as tracers.
948      - ctrl_get_gen.F : replace #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL2D with
949          #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH, IF ctrlSmoothCorrel2D, IF useSMOOTH.
950      - ctrl_map_ini_gen.F : replace #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL3D with
951          #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH, IF ctrlSmoothCorrel3D, IF useSMOOTH.
952      - ctrl_set_pack_xy[z].F, ctrl_set_unpack_xy[z].F:
953        replace ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL2D/3D brackets with ctrlSmoothCorrel2D/3D.
954    o pkg/smooth:
955      - remove un-necessary includes.
956      - remove ALLOW_SMOOTH*D and ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL*D brakets.
957        Those CPP options were never defined, and not necessary.
958    o model/src:
959      - fix CPP brackets in ini_mixing.F (GM_background_K belongs to gmredi).
960      - standard treatment of useSMOOTH.
961    o pkg/autodiff:
962      - add LOGICAL useGGL90inAdMode, useGGL90inFwdMode, useSALT_PLUMEinAdMode,
963        useSALT_PLUMEInFwdMode allowing to switch off ggl90 and salt_plume adjoint.
964    o pkg/exch2:
965      - add "if usingMPI" where it was missing (in exch2_rx?_cube*.template)
966        + start to remove ALWAYS_USE_MPI in source code that TAF does not see.
967      - make new S/R W2_MAP_PROCS out of w2_eeboot.F to setup exch2 CommonFlag
968        and tiles to process mapping.
969      - re-arrange 3 header files (W2_EXCH2_PARAMS.h, _BUFFER.h & _TOPOLOGY.h)
970        moving /EXCH2_FILLVAL_RX/ & /W2_EXCH2_COMMFLAG/ to W2_EXCH2_TOPOLOGY.h;
971        rename "exch2_tProc" to "W2_tileProc" and move seting of e2FillValue_RX
972        from w2_eeboot.F to w2_readparms.F.
973    o eesupp/src:
974      - set exchNeedsMemsync & exchUsesBarrier according to "usingMPI" (instead of
975        ALWAYS_USE_MPI) + moved from ini_communication_patterns.F to eeset_parms.F;
976        also move setting of exchCollectStatistics from exch_init.F to eeset_parms.F
977      - in eedie.F and all_proc_die.F, always call MPI_FINALIZE when ALLOW_USE_MPI
978        is defined (remove condition on usingMPI) to match cases where MPI_INIT
979        has been called.
980      - fix bug I put in previous modif of exch_sm_3d_rx.template (not much used);
981      - change default (non-MPI) value of myPid (from 1 to 0) to match MPI settings
982        (so that on 1 proc, get same myPid independently of usingMPI)
983      - add a stop if multi-procs but usingMPI=F ; stop also if usingMPI=T and
984        useCubedSphereExchange with EXCH-1 (safer).
985      - add "if usingMPI" where it was missing (+ start to remove ALWAYS_USE_MPI).
986    o pkg/ggl90:
987      - fix bug in filling corner mask array "mskCor" (FILL_CS_CORNER_TR_RL call)
988        used in ALLOW_GGL90_SMOOTH code.
989    o pkg/flt:
990      - fix typo in FLT_WITHOUT_Y_PERIODICITY (the effect was to ignore stopping
991        floats at the Southern end of the domain).
992    o eesupp/inc:
993      - add a list of CPP-options which can be set by Makefile (DEF_IN_MAKEFILE.h);
994        but not used (and not to be used) anywhere, just for documentation.
995    o pkg/autodiff, exf, ptracers & seaice (AD & TL output):
996      - comment out the very nasty "writeBinaryPrec = writeStatePrec" line, since:
997        a) can damage previously written records in any other multi-record files.
998        b) if needed, can easily do it cleanly, by calling S/R WRITE_REC_3D_RL/S.
999    o tools/genmake2:
1000      - define variable MAKE within Makefile and use it in place of 'make';
1001      - update AD_CONFIG.h (if needed) before building any of the executable
1002        (forward, adjoint or tangent-lin); this involves a 2nd invocation of make;
1003        and add the usual #ifndef/#define AD_CONFIG_H in AD_CONFIG.h;
1004      - always print usual warning comment 'this file is automatically generated'
1005        from script convert_cpp_cmd2defines (+ remove this warning from genmake2).
1006    o pkg/cheapaml:
1007      - updated to correspond to the code used in accepted paper (Nico Wienders).
1008    o pkg/exf:
1009        added run time switch useAtmWind to replace ALLOW_ATM_WIND cpp switch.
1010        ALLOW_ATM_WIND now just sets the useAtmWind default (see exf_readparms.F)
1011        and force defines ALLOW_BULKFORMULAE (EXF_OPTIONS.h).
1012    o pkg/exf, autodiff, ctrl, ecco and seaice:
1013        remove ALLOW_ATM_WIND brackets, or replace them with useAtmWind ones.
1014    o pkg/ctrl, ecco:
1015        allow to compile both ALLOW_U/VSTRESS_CONTROL and ALLOW_U/VWIND_CONTROL.
1016        Depending on useAtmWind, one is inactive, and the other is active (see
1017        exf_getffields.F/exf_getsurfacefluxes.F).
1018    o tools/genmake2:
1019      - improve error msg when failing in 2nd test of check_for_broken_Ff
1020      - fix option '-makefile' short-name (-mf according to genmake2 -help)
1021      - source local config file "genmake_local" just after processing the genmake2
1022        command arguments (previously done before processing arg).
1023    o pkg/grdchk:
1024      - add a call to TURNOFF_MODEL_IO for Tangent-Linear run (in this case, call
1025        to this routine from cost_final has been dropped in g_cost_final)
1026      - improve printed information (more explicit msg, no longer using "print *,"
1027         fix fcpertminus printed value).
1028    o model/src:
1029      - move call to COST_INIT_VARIA out of packages_init_variables.F directly
1030        into initialise_varia.F (just after calling PACKAGES_INIT_VARIABLES):
1031        this prevents getting cost-funct reset in adinitialise_varia recomputations.
1032    o pkg/dic:
1033      - move initialisation of "freefe" array from from dic_biotic_forcing.F to
1034        fe_chem.F: this prevents TAF from dropping this initialisation in TLM code.
1035    o pkg/grdchk:
1036      - grdchk_main.F : added CALL GLOBAL_SUM_INT( ierr , myThid )
1037      - grdchk_getadxx.F etc. : omit I/O if ierr.EQ.0
1038    o pkg/autodiff/ctrl/grdchk :
1039      - attempt to sort out what works and what does not,
1040        with regard to I/O, and to warn/stop accordingly.
1041    o pkg/grdchk:
1042      - attempt to fix grdchk in the case of useSingleCpuIO.
1043      - "if ( myProcId .EQ. grdchkwhichproc .AND. ierr .EQ. 0 )"
1044       statements were moved from grdchk_main.F and into
1045       grdchk_getadxx.F grdchk_getxx.F grdchk_setxx.F.
1046      - a global sum is applied to record numbers icvrec/layer
1047       out of grdchk_loc so that they be passed to I/O routines.
1048    o pkg/smooth:
1049      - fix recomputation that appeared with nlfs : use smooth_recip_hFacC,
1050        smooth_hFacW, smooth_hFacS (copied at init_fixed) in 3d case.
1051    o verification/testreport:
1052      - add option '-tlm' for Tangent-Linear test (-adm,-oad,-tlm are all exclusive);
1053      - can also use compressed (gzip) reference output file;
1054      - change format (in pkg/grdchk) of TLM output (+ add forward gradient)
1055        to be easier to collect by testreport.
1056      - update existing TLM output (half out-of-date by more than 3 yrs).
1057      - report NETCDF & LAPACK settings (from genmake2) in output dir.
1058      - report run-time in each individual summary (previously only for AD test);
1059        for TLM test, add also TAF version.
1060      - add daily TLM test on (old) aces cluster + weekly test on baudelaire.
1061    
1062    checkpoint63r (2012/08/15)
1063    o tools/genmake2:
1064      - fix Makefile for target ftlall (+ update files to clean after make ftlall)
1065    o pkg/ecco/ecco_cost_final.F :
1066      - fix fc print statements (to stdout and costfunction0000) so
1067        that the printed value is always after the global sum.
1068    o pkg/seaice/seaice_dynsolver.F :
1069      - fix ice strength assymptote at SEAICE_area_max<1
1070        (no change for the standard case of SEAICE_area_max=1)
1071    o some cleaning:
1072      - pkg source files: ensure that all *.F files from each pkg included the
1073        corresponding ${PKG}_OPTIONS.h file (except stand-alone src file which
1074        only includes CPP_EEOPTIONS.h); fix S/R CTRL_SMOOTH ; update AD experiment
1075        code_ad/*.F src files; add new option-file in pkg/admtlm + corresponding
1076        includes;
1077      - model/src: add PACKAGES_CONFIG.h wherever ALLOW_AUTODIFF[_TAMC] is used.
1078      - ALLOW_DIFFKR_CONTROL: add a stop in S/R CTRL_CHECK in case ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR
1079        is undef; also define /DYNVARS_DIFFKR/ common block in DYNVARS.h when
1080        ALLOW_DIFFKR_CONTROL is defined, to allow to compile and reach this stop.
1081      - update option-file CPP_OPTIONS.h of all AD experiments:
1082        * no longer include PACKAGES_CONFIG.h ;
1083        * includes ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h if PACKAGES_CONFIG.h has been included ;
1084        * def/undef ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR independently of ALLOW_DIFFKR_CONTROL (before
1085          including ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h).
1086    o pkg/cost, pkg/ctrl, pkg/ecco option-file:
1087      - clean-up and split content of old pkg/ecco/ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h file into
1088        separated pkg option-file (done according to old doc from ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h,
1089        not necessary accurate).
1090      - add a template for option-file ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h, mostly empty, in
1091        pkg/autodiff, i.e., the 1rst pkg to compile for adjoint built, with lines to
1092        deliberately break compilation (a remainder that it needs to be customized)
1093      - in pkg/ecco, includes ECCO_OPTIONS.h instead of COST_OPTIONS.h
1094      - rename COST_CPPOPTIONS.h to COST_OPTIONS.h
1095      - rename CTRL_CPPOPTIONS.h to CTRL_OPTIONS.h
1096    o tools/genamke2:
1097      - check for lapack.
1098    o pkg/cost and pkg/ecco : attempt to sort out some of the limiting intricacies.
1099      - pkg/cost.cost_final.F : allow for use of pkg/ecco and pkg/cost cost functions
1100        jointly. The exclusive ifdefs were removed, to add costs terms (when defined)
1101        from both packages.
1102      - the fc global sum in pkg/ecco/ecco_cost_final.F was removed accordingly.
1103      - for objf_atl we use either the pkg/ecco or the pkg/cost term depending on CPPs.
1104      - pkg/ecco and model/src : add CPP brackets around pkg/cost and pkg/ctrl includes
1105        of "CTRL_SIZE.h" "ctrl.h" "ctrl_dummy.h" "optim.h" / "cost.h" accordingly.
1106    o pkg/cost : add comments to explain special and/or untested setups.
1107    o pkg/exf:
1108      - use EXF_OPTIONS.h to set pkg/exf options except if done in ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h
1109        (previously, ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC was controling this switch).
1110    o verification/*/code_ad:
1111      mimimal cleaning of AD experiments ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h option-file:
1112      - reccord when this file is included (define ECCO_CPPOPTIONS_H)
1113      - remove the most obvious obsolete features (e.g., #define ALLOW_COST not
1114        allowed since Oct 2003 in any option-file except in PACKAGES_CONFIG.h)
1115    o pkg/seaice :
1116      - added possibility to change ice strength/PRESS0 relationship to
1117        HEFF, according to the following run time parameters
1118        SEAICEpresPow0 :: HEFF exponent for ice strength below SEAICEpresH0 (integer, >0)
1119        SEAICEpresPow1 :: HEFF exponent for ice strength above SEAICEpresH0 (integer, >0)
1120        SEAICEpresH0   :: HEFF threshold for ice strength            (m)
1121    o pkg/ggl90 :
1122      - added run time flag mxlSurfFlag to include the code that ensure
1123        mixing between first and second level (previously included as a comment)
1124    o verification/1D_ocean_ice_column/input_ad/data.autodiff :
1125      - add test of newly added dumpAdByRec=T option where
1126        we write all records to one file per variable.
1127    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/code_ad/CPP_OPTIONS.h :
1128      - switch to #define ALLOW_BALANCE_RELAX and ALLOW_BALANCE_FLUXES
1129        to check that this code is ok with taf and compiles in adjoint.
1130    o pkg/autodiff :
1131      - added run time param dumpAdByRec : ad dump format switch.
1132        If true then write all records to one file per variable.
1133        Else write one file per record (remains the default).
1134      - revise seaice_ad_dump.F and exf_adjoint_snapshots_ad.F accordingly.
1135    o pkg/seaice:
1136     - Added SEAICEuseTILT run time switch : if set to
1137       false then omit the tilt term in seaice dynamics.
1138     - Fix free drift calculation.
1139    o pkg/shelfice:
1140      When initializing SHELFICEDragQuadratic, set default to be
1141      consistent with shiCdrag in case SHELFICEuseGammaFrict is used,
1142      but retain option to set it independently
1143      (inconsistenty spotted by Veronique Dansereau)
1144    o eesupp/inc:
1145      - in EEPARAMS.h, add real-type constant for some frequently used simple number
1146         (0,1,2,1/2), with name explicitly referring to RS/RL type.
1147    o model/src:
1148      - move balancing of relaxation terms to new S/R balance_relax.F.
1149    o pkg/autodiff:
1150      re-write active I/O high-level (control) S/R:
1151      - rename  S/R ACTIVE_READ/WRITE_RL to ACTIVE_READ/WRITE_3D_RL
1152      - add 1 more argument (useCurrentDir) to replace the "_LOC" 2nd set of S/R.
1153      - use standard pkg/mdsio I/O routines (MDS_READ/WRITE_SEC_XZ/YZ  and
1154        MDS_READ/WRITE_FIELD); change loops to multi-threads.
1155      - update and merge active_file_control_slice.flow into active_file_control.flow
1156      - update the calls in lower level S/R (active_file.F, active_file_g.F and
1157        active_file_ad.F) keeping the argument list and function unchanged.
1158      - also update lower-level "_LOC" version (call same S/R with "useCurrentDir
1159        =.TRUE.") and remove high-level (control) _loc version (not called anymore).
1160      - new low-level active I/O routines, one for each type (RL/RS), for active var
1161        of various (XY,XZ,YZ) shape and level number (arguments: arrShape, myNr);
1162        fix ctrl_init_wet.F & ecco_cost_weights.F by calling the new S/R with the
1163        right type.
1164    o autodiff and RS=real*4:
1165      - call the right type (_RS instead of _RL) of S/R in few output S/R (pkg/exf
1166        ad-monitor and snapshots); disable arrType='RS' in mdsio_gl*.F ;
1167      - change argument type of 3-D mask argument to _RS to match type in the call
1168        (in seaice_cost*.F, ctrl_*_gen.F and *ctrl_bound.F); to be continued.
1169    o pkg/thsice:
1170      - re-anable balanceEmPmR when useSEAICE=T with useThSIce=T.
1171      - option to correct ocean fresh-water flux for imbalance of Atmos+Land
1172        fresh-water flux: uniform correction or proportional to local precip.
1173    o pkg/ctrl:
1174      - new header file CTRL_SIZE.h for parameters maxCtrlArr2D, maxCtrlArr3D
1175      - redefine CPP option ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG_CONTROL to
1176                            ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG_CONTROL_NONGENERIC
1177      - verification/hs94.1x64x5/ tests ALLOW_GENARR{2D,3D}_CONTROL
1178    
1179    checkpoint63q (2012/07/30)
1180    o pkg/autodiff:
1181      note about monitor and snap-shot of ad-variables:
1182      a) need to apply ADEXCH before monitor or output of ad-vars to include
1183       overlap contributions (was done for adjDump but missing for monitor).
1184      b) since ADEXCH implies adding overlap values to interior array, machine
1185       truncation error is expected when adding an ADEXCH call in the middle of
1186       the time-stepping (although mathematically identical).
1187      modifs:
1188      - fix some incorrect type (RL/RS, UV/scalar) in ADEXCH calls and ad-vars
1189        declaration (adEddyPsiX,adEddyPsiY in adcommon.h).
1190      - add new run-time params (dumpAdVarExch & mon_AdVarExch) to select how  to
1191        apply ADEXCH before monitor or snap-shot of ad-variables:
1192           =0 : no ADEXCH ; =1 : do ADEXCH ; =2 : apply ADEXCH on a local copy.
1193      - implement new method (copy+adexch) for snap-shot and monitor of main model
1194        ad-vars (initially not used by default -> output unchanged).
1195      - change default (set to 2) to use new method and update few output_adm.txt
1196        with accurate ad-monitor (global_ocean.90x40x15, tutorial_global_oce_biogeo
1197        and both tutorial_tracer_adjsens tests).
1198      - switch 2 global_ocean.cs32x15 AD-tests to AB-2 (seaice_dynmix & thsice)
1199        and turn off momDissip_In_AB in the 2 other (needed for stable AB-3).
1200    o pkg/ctrl:
1201      enable the use of a variable number (maxCtrlArr2D, maxCtrlArr3D) of
1202      generic control variables via
1203      #define ALLOW_GENARR2D_CONTROL and/or #define ALLOW_GENARR3D_CONTROL
1204      Only required customization should be S/R ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F
1205      (routine in repository contains example)
1206    o pkg/exf:
1207      - fix and refine checking of surface-relaxation setting when using EXF
1208    o verification (adjoint exp):
1209      - reduce length of simulation by half for experiment global_ocean.cs32x15
1210        (std, seaice & seaice_dynmix) and exp tutorial_dic_adjoffline; update output.
1211    o pkg/mom_common (mom_u/v_bottomdrag), pkg/shelfice (shelfice_u/v_drag)
1212      - replace if statements KE.ne.0 with KE.gt.0 to avoid sqrt of negative numbers
1213        of KE that can occur with aggressive optimization
1214      + put quadratic bottom drag calculation in separated loops (only done if
1215        using bottomDragQuadratic)
1216    o model/src: CG2D_NSA
1217      - clean-up:  stop if cg2dNormaliseRHS=T and AUTODIFF
1218         and replace GLOBAL_SUM calls with GLOBAL_SUM_TILE.
1219      - in test-exp that uses CG2D_NSA (bottom_ctrl & tutorial_tracer_adjsens),
1220         change cg2d residual target to be expressed in Wunits (=> do not normalise
1221         RHS ; this fix global_max Pb with TAF); update output.
1222    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens:
1223       improve parameter consistency (and get rid of warnings):
1224       - use deltaTFreeSurf=deltaTtracer (better with NonLin FreeSurf);
1225       - switch Temp Adv Scheme from 81 to 80 (no limiter since theta < 0 is physical)
1226       - use staggerTimeStep (for stability) in som81; use default rotation period.
1227    o pkg/exch2:
1228      - with empty facet: fix compact-format (W2_mapIO=1) definition (was previously
1229        reset to 0 = 1 long line in X)
1230    o pkg/mdsio:
1231      - fix reading of dimensions from meta file for large-size domain
1232    o model/src:
1233      - fix saltIsActiveTr setting for IdealGas eosType (eosType is 6 character long);
1234      - to refine CS-grid check, add logical flag "hasWetCSCorners": true if using
1235        Cubed-Sphere Exch with CS-corners inside the domain;
1236        make new S/R INI_GLOBAL_DOMAIN from code in ini_linear_phisurf.F to calculate
1237        globalArea and to set hasWetCSCorners.
1238      - add warning if usingCurvilinearGrid and momAdvection in flux-form (missing
1239        metric terms); stop if hasWetCSCorners=T and momAdvection in flux-form.
1240      - re-activate the stop if useCDscheme and hasWetCSCorners=T (previously if
1241        useCDscheme and useCubedSphereExchange).
1242    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F :
1243      - compute the SEAICE_DISABLE_HEATCONSFIX term accordingly
1244        for the (.NOT.useRealFreshWaterFlux).OR.(nonlinFreeSurf.EQ.0)
1245        when the previous code was not correct.
1246      - in all cases diagnoze the boundary condition mismatch to SIaaflux
1247      - in the case of useRealFreshWaterFlux.AND.(nonlinFreeSurf.GT.0) add
1248        that term to QNET (essentially to set the melt/freeze water to 0degC).
1249        when SEAICEheatConsFix is true, so that the ocean+ice budget heat is closed.
1250    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.seaice :
1251      - add SEAICEheatConsFix in data.seaice, ensuring closed ocean+ice heat budget.
1252      - add diagnostics (commented out) for budget test using my matlab codes (gcmfaces).
1253      - update results (output.seaice.txt) accordingly.
1254    o verification/lab_sea/input/data.seaice :
1255      - remove SEAICEheatConsFix, which is now be tested
1256        in global_ocean.cs32x15. The presently coded fix
1257        is only consistent with real fresh water + nlfs.
1258      - update results (output.txt) accordingly.
1259    o pkg/salt_plume: added diagnotic for salt tendency (oceSPtnd).
1260    o AD_CONFIG.h file:
1261      - in genmake2: remove "#undef ALLOW_ECCO_OPTIMIZATION" from AD_CONFIG.h;
1262      - remove #include "AD_CONFIG.h" from all included OPTIONS files and
1263        add it explicitly in each fortran src file where it is needed.
1264        motivation: header file AD_CONFIG.h is generated/modified after "make depend"
1265        thus introducing potentially wrong dependency; therefore, better to include
1266        it only where it's really needed, and after any other included OPTIONS file
1267        (less tempting to bring conditional includes according to ALLOW_ADJOINT_RUN
1268        or ALLOW_TANGENTLINEAR_RUN).
1269    
1270    checkpoint63p (2012/07/06)
1271    o pkg/autodiff:
1272      - rename S/R INI_AUTODIFF to AUTODIFF_INIT_VARIA ;
1273      - create new header file "AUTODIFF_PARAMS.h" for pkg/autodiff parameters
1274        which are now read from new parameter file "data.autodiff" (inAdExact
1275        previously in "data", use{KPP/GMRedi/SEAICE}inAdMode previously in data.pkg)
1276      - add file "data.autodiff" in all verification/*/input_ad/ directories.
1277      - add run-time parameter to turn On/Off SEAICEuseFREEDRIFT in adjoint/forward
1278        mode (used in global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice_dynmix test exp.)
1279    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens/
1280      - add extra sub-verification which uses "SOM" advection scheme
1281        (2nd Order-Moment Advection Scheme, Prather Limiter) with
1282          #define GAD_ALLOW_TS_SOM_ADV in GAD_OPTIONS.h
1283        and in data:
1284          multiDimAdvection=.TRUE.,
1285          tempAdvScheme=81,
1286          saltAdvScheme=81,
1287    o model/src:
1288      - introduce ALLOW_BALANCE_RELAX which allow the removal
1289       of the global mean of relaxation terms by setting
1290       balanceThetaClimRelax and balanceSaltClimRelax
1291      - disable balanceEmPmR and balanceQnet in the case when useSeaice.
1292       This case is now treated appropriately in seaice_growth.F
1293    o pkg/seaice:
1294      - do balanceEmPmR and balanceQnet based on the net fluxes
1295        (SItflux) that enter the ocean+ice system rather than QNET
1296        and EMPMR. Works best in real fresh water.
1297      - SIatmFW, SIatmQnet, and SItflux computations had to be moved
1298        out of the diagnotics bloc, and stored in global arrays.
1299    
1300    checkpoint63o (2012/06/29)
1301    o vertical mixing schemes:
1302      - remove unused S/R CALC_BUOYANCY (left from branch-atmos merging)
1303      - replace computation of density (in Function STATE1, opps_calc.F) by a call
1304        to S/R FIND_RHO_SCALAR
1305      - pass sigmaR to S/R PP81_CALC, MY82_CALC (but not yet used) and to GGL90_CALC
1306        and use it for N^2 calculation in ggl90_calc.F (save 2 density computations);
1307        affects output (vermix.ggl90) at truncation level.
1308    o testreport:
1309      - change adjustment of SIZE.h for mpi+mth testing: preserve enough tiles
1310        (nSx,nSy) for the number of threads (from eedata.mth)
1311    o model/src:
1312      - remove 2nd set of calls at the top of initialise_varia.F (Adjoint part)
1313        related to Non_Lin Free-Surf or Bottom-Control (but not longer necessary).
1314  o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens/  o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens/
1315    - compile with ALLOW_CG2D_NSA    - compile with ALLOW_CG2D_NSA
1316    - run with nonlinFreeSurf=3    - run with nonlinFreeSurf=3
