4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o pkg/atm_phys:
8      - move copy of grid and dynamical fields out of atm_phys_driver.F into
9        new S/R ATM_PHYS_DYN2PHYS.
10      - fix level height for Linear Free-Surf case (to be consistent with
11        fixed-in-time pressure levels).
12    o pkg/mom_common (bottomdrag):
13      - average bottomDragFld (ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG_CONTROL) from grid-cell center
14        to correct location (U & V point) in S/R MOM_U/V_BOTTOMDRAG;
15        update output (adm & tlm) of experiment global_ocean.90x40x15.bottomdrag.
16    o pkg/shelfice (u/v_drag):
17      - add one argument (the other velocity component) to S/R SHELFICE_U/V_DRAG;
18      - use SHELFICEDragLinear & SHELFICEDragQuadratic in shelfice_v_drag.F
19        (now similar to shelfice_u_drag.F)
20      - remove condition on bottomDragTerms when calling SHELFICE_U/V_DRAG
21        from mom_vecinv.F (similar to mom_fluxform calls).
22    o pkg/mom_common (bottomdrag):
23      - add one argument (the other velocity component) to S/R MOM_U/V_BOTTOMDRAG;
24      - add options for alternative discretisation of velocity norm in quadratic
25        bottom drag: averaging of grid-cell-center KE to U.point and V.point
26        (selectBotDragQuadr=0, original code) can produce noisy patterns; this
27        improves when averaging only the other component (e.g. vVel for U bottom
28        drag) using wet-point method (selectBotDragQuadr=2) or not (=1).
29      - add options (bottomVisc_pCell) to account for partial-cell in bottom
30        friction (no-slip BC) thus getting the true distance from the bottom;
31        off by default since this also reduces model stability (explicit bottom
32        friction). Changes produce different machine truncation with linear-drag
33        + no-slip BC: update output of experiments exp4.stevens (10 digits) and
34        front_relax (bvp & mxl, 10 & 11 digits).
35    o model/src & mom pkgs:
36      - add one more level to vertical viscosity local arrays (Nr+1, previously Nr)
37        since no-slip bottom BC uses viscosity @ k+1 to update velocity @ level k
38      - for now and until vertical mixing scheme are updated to fill up level Nr+1,
39        just copy level Nr value to level Nr+1.
40    o doc:
41      - add notes form Abhisek Chakraborty on how to close Heat & Salt budgets.
42    o pkg/streamice:
43      - shelfice_init_varia.F, shelfice_init_fixed.F, shelfice_readparms.F,
44        SHELFICE.h: move array shelficemass to init_varia, initialise
45        from array shelficemassinit, which is set in init_fixed and
46        has option to be set from file; introduce array
47        shelficeMassDynTend array, set thru file in init_fixed
48      - NEW FILE: shelfice_step_icemass.F: update shelficemass from either
49        shelfIceFreshWaterFlux and shelficeMassDynTend or H_streamice in
50        pkg/streamice
51      - shelfice_thermodynamics.F: call shelfice_step_icemass if
52        SHELFICEMassStepping = .true.
53      - shelfice_ad_diff.list: add new subroutine shelfice_step_icemass.f
54    
55    checkpoint65h (2014/12/17)
56    o verification/global_ocean.90x40x15, global_ocean_ebm:
57      - update to generic controls.
58    o pkg/ctrl:
59      - ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F: test for igen>0
60      - ctrl_init_variables.F: add call to CTRL_MAP_INI_GENTIM2D.
61      - move gentim2d part of ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F to
62        new separate routine : ctrl_map_ini_gentim2d.F
63      - ctrl_cost_driver.F,ctrl_init.F ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F:
64        add time variable weights and cyclic controls (time mean,
65        seasonal cycle, etc) capabilities to gentim2d
66    o pkg/ecco:
67      - move reading of error, conversion to weights from
68        ecco_cost_init_fixed.F to ecco_toolbox.F (ecco_readwei)
69    o global_oce_llc90, cs32:
70      - activte sbo.
71      - CTRL_SIZE.h : add maxCtrlProc.
72      - activate the new genctrl capabilities.
73      - update following reorganization of global_oce_input_fields.tar.gz  
74    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_ad_diff.list:
75      - add missing ctrl_init_rec.f
76    o tools/OAD_support/keepOriginal:
77      - add ctrl_init_rec.F
78    o model/src/the_main_loop.F, pkg/ctrl/ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F:
79      - avoid recomputations of xx_gentim2d_dummy.
80    o momentum diagnostics:
81      - move filling of diagnostics Um_Diss & Vm_Diss from mom_fluxform.F and
82        mom_vecinv.F to timestep.F (to include Smag-3D contribution).
83    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F:
84      - fix computation of BU/BV, make sure they are non-zero, only necessary
85        for cubed sphere exchanges and SEAICE_OLx/y>0.
86        This makes calling s/r fill_cs_corner_rl obsolete (removed).
87    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.seaice
88      - add test for strong implicit coupling and restricted addtive Schwarz
89        methods for LSR
90      - update results/output.seaice.txt
91    o verification/tutorial_global_oce_biogeo:
92      - AD & OAD set-up: switch off ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX (like in fwd set-up)
93        and set PTRACERS_EvPrRn(1,2) to zero (for DIC & ALK);
94        update output_adm,_oadm,_tlm.txt
95    o pkg/dic:
96      - change default to "#undef ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX" in DIC_OPTIONS.h
97      - add a stop when ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX is defined and PTRACERS_EvPrRn
98        for tracer 1 & 2 is set (to avoid double counting of dilution effect).
99    o verification/tutorial_global_oce_biogeo:
100      - AD & OAD set-up: do not set PTRACERS_EvPrRn for tracer 1 & 2 since
101        dilution is already added by pkg/dic ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX ;
102        update output_adm,_oadm,_tlm.txt
103    o eesupp/src:
104      - add fill_cs_corner_rl.F (_RL-copy of fill_cs_corner_rs.F)
105        and call it in seaice_lsr when using nonzero SEAICE_OLx/y
106    o pkg/seaice: introduce strongly implicit coupling, intended for stabilizing
107      LSR (following Hutchings et al. 2004)
108      - introduce zetaZ as a global variable (requires adjustments in
109        seaice_evp.F and seaice_jfnk.F) and compute analoguously to etaZ
110        in seaice_calc_viscosities.F
111      - new flag SEAICEuseStrImpCpl (default off)
112      - add new terms zetaZ*du/dy and zetaZ*dv/dx on both sides of the
113        momentum equations
114      - JFNK-solver (preconditioner) adjusted to allow using this method
115        (where it does not have any positive effect)
116    o pkg/seaice
117      - add overlap for restrictive additive Schwartz method also to LSR, but
118        turn it off by default (because it only seems to work for non-cubed
119        sphere/llc topologies)
120    o pkg/autodiff
121      - add extra exchanges in addummy_in_steppging also for mnc output
122    o pkg/seaice:
123      - add extra exchanges before dumping adjoint fields in seaice_ad_dump.F
124        to avoid stripes in the adjoint output (similar to addummy_in_stepping.F)
125    o pkg/obcs:
126      - add option to specify domain-connected piece Id along OB though files
127        (for now, only used to diagnose PhiVel; default =1 -> global correction)
128      - modify obcs_diag_balance.F to process each connected-part separately;
129        exclude OB where Id = 0 but keep the full divergence there (-> constant
130        Psi along this portion of OB and all inflow derived from grad(Phi))
131      - add example of OB-conect files in verification/so_box_biogeo/input.
132    o pkg/diagnostics:
133      - improve treatment of Open-Boundaries in Velocity-Potential calculation:
134      a) use non zero matrix element across OB and solve for Phi 1 grid point
135         outside OB (i.e, where tracer OBCS are applied).
136      b) global imbalance of inFlow/outFlow across OB: instead of modifying
137         velocity across OB, spread it uniformly along the OB in the RHS.
138    
139    checkpoint65g (2014/11/19)
140    o pkg/diagnostcis:
141      - add preconditioner off-diagonal factor (diagCG_pcOffDFac) as run-time param
142    o pkg/my82,pp81,kl10:
143      - fix ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR implementation (previously had no effect): use 3-D
144        field diffKr as background diffusivity to set minimum diffusivity value.
145    o pkg/seaice:
146      - add new parameter SEAICEuseEVPrev (for revisited EVP by
147        Bouillon et al 2013)
148      - add SEAICE_evpAlpha/Beta to namelist
149      - modify seaice_evp code to able to use SEAICEuseEVPrev. These changes
150        involve trivial re-ordering of divisions/multiplications that should not
151        have any effects, but ... they do change the results of lab_sea.hb87 so
152        that only 2 digits of agreement remain, in line with the general
153        instability/fragility of the evp-code. For now, I do not care and just
154        update the verification experiment
155    o pkg/ctrl : add generic pre-processing (xx_genarr2d_preproc etc)
156      - remove xx_genarr2d_numsmooth etc
157      - use xx_genarr2d_preproc etc instead
158      - carry out smooth_correl2D at initialization stage rather than during
159        time stepping.
160      - get smoothOpNb from xx_gentim2d_preproc
161    o global_oce_cs32 :
162      - add test of generic ecco capabilities.
163    o pkg/exf/exf_getsurfacefluxes.F :
164      - add to tmpUE/tmpVN rather than re-initializing them (conventional behavior).
165    o pkg/ctrl,ecco :
166      - omit un-necessary arguments to ctrl_cost_gen.F unless ECCO_CTRL_DEPRECATED
167        is defined.
168    o pkg/seaice: add diagnostics for Delta (deformation parameter)
169    o model/src:
170      - when ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR is defined, add a Warning if any of the vertical
171        diffusivity (background) is specified but ignored.
172    o verification:
173      - in testreport, convert hostname to lower case for default output dir name
174    o model, pkg : add useCTRL, useECCO parameters (on/off run time switch).
175    o pkg/dic: add modifications from Hajoon:
176      - add iron sedimentation flux function of the flux of PO4 out of bottom layer
177      - light attenuation: add self-shading effect by climatological Chlorophyll
178        (read from file).
179    o pkg/seaice/seaice_preconditioner.F : fix cpp flags, so that code also
180        compiles when SEAICE_ALLOW_DYNAMICS is undefined
181    o global_oce_llc90,cs32 : ecco_v4 verification exps now use separate
182        AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, CTRL_OPTIONS.h, ECCO_OPTIONS.h rather than
183        ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h (i.e. replacing the deprecated, circumvoluted,
184        approach where CPP_OPTIONS.h includes an omnipotent
185        ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h that superseeds pkgs '_OPTIONS.h').
186    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F : include GMREDI_OPTIONS.h where
187        ALLOW_3D_KAPGM, ALLOW_3D_KAPREDI (to be added later) belong.
188    o pkg/seaice/SEAICE_SIZE.h : replace ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC with ALLOW_AUTODIFF
189        to avoid needing AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h anytime SEAICE_SIZE.h is included
190        (it seems that THSICE_SIZE.h, PTRACERS_SIZE.h have the same issue...)
191    o model/src, pkg/smooth, profiles, salt_plume, seaice, exf, ecco, ctrl :
192      add ECCO_OPTIONS.h, AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, CTRL_OPTIONS.h when needed
193      - ECCO_OPTIONS.h is needed when including ecco_cost.h, ecco.h
194      - AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h is needed when including tamc.h, tamc_keys.h
195      - CTRL_OPTIONS.h is needed when including ctrl.h, optim.h, etc
196    o pkg/ctrl,ecco,exf :
197      - remove variables associated with NON-generic costs,
198        unless ECCO_CTRL_DEPRECATED is defined.
199      - remove NON-generic NON-obcs controls,
200        unless ECCO_CTRL_DEPRECATED is defined.
201    o pkg/ctrl : added ctrl_local_params.h
202    o pkg/ecco : added ecco_local_params.h
203    o verification : added ECCO_CTRL_DEPRECATED to most as and oad
204        experiments, which will progressively be removed once the
205        experiments are revised to use only generic controls/costs.
206    
207    checkpoint65f (2014/10/13)
208    o pkg/ctrl, ecco, seaice : minor changes in headers

215        ecco_addcost, ecco_add, ecco_div, ecco_readbar.
216      - cost_gencal.F (new) : determine filnames and records.
217      - cost_genread.F, cost_generic.F : condense code using ecco_toolbox.
218      - cost_generic.F : use spzeroloc rather than hard-coded -9999,
219        and exploit the above functions leading to more compact code.
220      - cost_genread.F : rm un-necessary arguments, re-arrange args order.
221      - ecco_check.F, ecco_readparms.F : bring logic up to date (using_tpj,

223    o pkg/ecco: extend generic cost capabilities
224      - pkg/ecco : added 3D gencost (ALLOW_GENCOST3D), added gencost
225        capabilities via gencost_preproc (+ _c,_i,_r related params),
226        gencost_posproc (+ _c,_i,_r related params), gencost_nrecperiod,
227        gencost_outputlevel arguments to cost_generic
228      - pkg/ecco/cost_genread.F (new) : interface between cost_generic
229        and active_read, making room for gencost_preproc to take effect.
230        Added preproc code ('climmon') to replace GENERIC_BAR_MONTH.
231      - pkg/ecco/cost_generic.F :
232        compute and store misfit maks*(model-data) in localdif that is
233        then used in cost and for output, output misfit if outlev.GT.0
234      - pkg/ecco/cost_averagesfields.F : depend on gencost_barskip
235        rather gencost_barfile for deciding whether to write barfile
236      - pkg/ecco/ecco_cost_driver.F : extract call to cost_profiles from cost_hyd
237      - pkg/ecco/ecco_cost_init_fixed.F : extract gencost weights from
238        ecco_cost_weights, re-activate ecco_summary, determine gencost_barskip
239      - pkg/ecco/ecco_summary.F : report gencost variables
240      - pkg/ecco/cost_gencost_customize.F : treat case of scatterometer costs
241    o pkg/sea/SEAICE_OPTIONS.h : add ALLOW_COST_ICE, ALLOW_SEAICE_COST_SMR_AREA
242    o pkg/ecco: internal re-organization
243      - resolve un-necessary dependancies within pkg/ecco and to pkg/ctrl
244        (rm includes of optim.h and ctrl.h, replace optimcycle with eccoiter,
245        mv relevant variables definition from ecco_cost.h to ecco.h,
246        make sure gencost routines only include ecco.h)
247      - throughout : add missing CCP switches, rm unused variables,
248        and rm un-necessary CPP switches
249      - throughout gencost routines : replace modelstartdate with
250        gencost_startdate when needed
251      - cost_bp_read.F : use arguments, instead of common blocs
252        so that it can be used also by (new) cost_gencost_bpv4.F
253      - ecco_init_varia.F : initialize RHOsumGlob_0, VOLsumGlob_0
254      - ecco_phys.F : compute etanFull
255      - ecco_readparms.F : rename using_topex as using_tpj, add
256        bpv4-grace to gencost list, initialize added parameters
257      - ecco_summary.F : include SIZE.h needed for augmented ecco.h
258    
259    checkpoint65e (2014/09/28)
260    o pkg/obcs:
261      - replaced the just-added CPP options with run-time variables
262        (see pkg/obcs/OBCS_PARAMS.h for details)
263    o pkg/obcs:
264      - add additional CPP options for sponge boundary layers
265        (see pkg/obcs/OBCS_OPTIONS.h for details)
266    o pkg/atm_phys:
267      - implement simple (obliquity only, assuming circular planet orbit)
268        seasonal cycle for incoming insolation ; used when run-time parameter
269        "select_incSW" is set to 1 ; by default (=0), uses old unchanged formula.
270    o pkg/exf, pkg/ecco, pkg/ctrl:
271      - add ctrlUseGen and .NOT.ctrlUseGen exclusive brackets
272      - activate gentim2d for xx_atemp,xx_aqh,xx_swdown,xx_lwdown,xx_precip

280      - add weight in CTRL_GET_GEN calls
281    o pkg/ctrl :
282      - ctrl_get_gen.F : add weight as input parameter, and apply
283        it directly rather than using smooth_correl2Dw (to be retired).

325    o ecco/ecco_init_varia.F
326      - new routine
327    o pkg/streamice:
328      - move call to STREAMICE_INITIALIZE_PETSC from the_model_main.F
329        to streamice_init_fixed.F ; fix setting of STREAMICEisOn.

341        so xx_gentim2d can be applied to e.g. exf fields in a timely manner.
342    o OpenAD verification experiments:
343      - Include explicitly AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, COST_OPTIONS.h, and CTRL_OPTIONS.h
344        in src files (to enable to skip the ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h);
345        for now, only in pkgs used in OpenAD verification experiments.
346      - Change all except one (halfpipe_streamice) OpenAD experiments to use pkg
347        specific option file (AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, COST_OPTIONS.h & CTRL_OPTIONS.h)
348        instead of using ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h (with all relevant options in it).
349        This applies to both TAF (*/code_ad/) and OpenAD (*/code_oad/) tests.
350    o OpenAD verification tests:
351      - finish removing ALLOW_AUTODIFF_OPENAD (replaced by ALLOW_OPENAD);
352      - finish replacing ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC by ALLOW_AUTODIFF (except for
353        tape/storage which are specific to TAF/TAMC) in pkgs used in OpenAD exp.
354      - leave ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC undef in OpenAD verification tests (*/code_oad/)
355        and remove local copy of "tamc.h" (needed only if ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC).
356    o model/src & generic_advdiff:
357      - change hard-coded loop-range in S/R APPLY_FORCING_T/S to set T & S
358        forcing over 0:sNx+1, 0:sNy=1 (instead of just 1:sNx,1:sNy): Model
359        dynamics requires valid tracer forcing only over tile interior but, for
360        some diagnostics, may need to extend it over 1 point in tile halo region.
361      - in gad_calc_rhs.F, update calls to gmredi_x/ytransport to get valid
362        tendency over i,j_Min,Max range. This allows to simplfy i,j_Min,Max
363        setting in temp/salt/ptracer_integrate.F
364    o pkg/dic:
365      - multiply tracer tendencies by maskInC (if ussing OBCS) before updating
366        gchem tracers: this allows to skip the 2nd call to OBCS_APPLY_PTRACER
367        in gchem_forcing_sep.F
368    o pkg/autodiff & obcs:
369      - add storage of current OB values for U & V (was already done for T & S).
370    
371    checkpoint65c (2014/08/30)
372    o pkg/dic:
373      - take out of dic_atmos.F the initialisation part (corresponding to istate=0)
374        and move it to new S/R DIC_INI_ATMOS ; also simplify the dependencies for
375        AD compilers (but still a Pb with multi-threading and Ajoint dependencies).
376    o verification:
377      - new experiment testing OBCS and DIC pkgs, using params & output from
378        tutorial_global_oce_biogeo but limited to a sub-domain around Drake
379        passage: take OBCS from the last year of a 2 yrs simulation and initial
380        conditions from t=1.yr while keeping the same forcing.
381    o model/src:
382      - when allowFreezing=T, only reset below freezing initial Temp to Tfreezing
383        (at any k) if checkIniTemp is not set to FALSE (default checkIniTemp=T).
384    o pkg/diagnostics (Stats-Diags):
385      - re-write S/R DIAGSTATS_CALC (more similar to TARGET_NEC_SX part) to:
386        a) refine region where stats are computed, excluding where arrhFac=0 ;
387        b) fix missing interior mask (use with OBCS) in 3-D fields statistics;
388        c) extend regional stats over the region edges (for U or V pt location).
389    o pkg/gchem:
390      - add a (2nd) call to OBCS_APPLY_PTRACER in gchem_forcing_sep.F (needed since
391        pkg/dic is currently changing/updating ptracers values beyond the OB).
392    o verification (hs94):
393      - convert Held & Suarez external_forcing.F (from hs94.cs, with Sigma-coords
394        bits) to apply_forcing.F and undef USE_OLD_EXTERNAL_FORCING in experiments
395        hs94.cs-32x32x5 and tutorial_held_suarez_cs ; also use the same version of
396        apply_forcing.F in 2D hs94 (fwd, ad & oad) but keep LatLon hs94 unchanged.
397    o pkg/ptracers:
398      - implement Adams-Bashforth on pTracers (instead of on tracer tendency),
399        switched on by setting PTRACERS_doAB_onGpTr=F (default set to doAB_onGtGs)
400      - change exp4 secondary test (input.nlfs) to test AB on T & S & pTracer
401        with AB-2 code (so that it get tested).
402    o model/src:
403      - allow to apply Adams-Bashforth on Temp & Salt (instead of on gT,gS)
404        with AB-2 code (previously only available with AB-3 code).
405        Also move the code (call to ADAMS_BASHFORTH S/R) form thermodynamics.F
406        to temp/salt_integrate.F (since the 2nd part of gt/sNm1 update is done
407        there, by calling CYCLE_AB_TRACER).
408    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
409      - change Tracer argument (drop bi,bj indices) in S/R GAD_CALC_RHS,
410        GAD_C2_ADV_R, GAD_U3_ADV_R, GAD_C4_ADV_R, GAD_DIFF_R, GAD_BIHARM_R
411        + also in GMREDI_X/Y/RTRANSPORT ; and update corresponding calls in
412        S/R temp/salt/ptracers_integrate.F
413    o model/src & pkg/ptracers:
414      - remove common block variables gT,gS (in DYNVARS.h), except when
415         USE_OLD_EXTERNAL_FORCING is defined; update TAF storage accordingly.
416      - remove common block variable gPtr.
417    o model/src & pkgs:
418      - change gTracer (and/or tracer) argument (drop bi,bj indices) in S/R
419         ADAMS_BASHFORTH(2&3), CYCLE_(AB_)TRACER, FREESURF_RESCALE_G,
420         IMPLDIFF, SOLVE_TRIDIAGONAL & _PENTADIAGONAL, GAD_SOM_ADVECT,
421         GAD_ADVECTION, GAD_CALC_RHS, GAD_IMPLICIT_R, TIMEAVE_CUMUL_DIF_1T
422      + change accordingly all calling S/R.
423      - use local temperature/salinity/ptracer tendency array (without bi,bj)
424        in S/R temp/salt/ptracers_integrate.F
425    o pkg/seaice:
426      - move computation of stress contributions to rhsU/V in s/r seaice_lsr
427        to separate s/r seaice_lsr_rhsu/v in order to be able to re-use code
428      - make u/vIceC local variables if SEAICE_CGRID is defined only to be used
429        in seaice_lsr
430      - seaice_lsr.F: make local 4D arrays UXX, VYY, etc 2D
431        in s/r seaice_lsr_calc_coeffs
432    o pkg/mdsio:
433      - in MDS_READ/WRITE_FIELD, stop if file-name (+prefix) is too long
434        (e.g., > MAX_LEN_MBUF -90 ) or, in INI_MODEL_IO, if mdsioLocalDir is
435        too long (e.g., > MAX_LEN_FNAM/2 )
436    
437    checkpoint65b (2014/08/12)
438    o pkg/matrix:
439      - pass, as argument, updated tracer field to S/R MATRIX_STORE_TENDENCY_EXP
440    o model/src:
441      - fix initialisation of geothermalFile; compile geothermal-flux code in
442        natl_box verification experiment.
443    o model/src & pkg/down_slope:
444      - push the k loop inside S/R TIMESTEP_TRACER (now called outside the k loop).
445      - in dwnslp_apply.F, update tracer tendency instead of the future tracer
446        field and call S/R DWNSLP_APPLY before TIMESTEP_TRACER; this affects
447        results at machine truncation level: update output of experiments
448        global_ocean.90x40x15.dwnslp (FWD) and lab_sea.noseaicedyn (AD).
449    o pkg/diagnostics (Stats-Diags):
450      - do not cumulate the full volume when DIAGNOSTICS_FILL is
451        called with bibjFlg < 0 (no increment of the counter for 2D/3D diag);
452        This fix the mean statistics when DIAGNOSTICS_FILL is called multiple
453        times (but Min,Max and StD are still wrong).
454    o model/src:
455      - add geothermal flux forcing: read in ini_forcing.F as time-constant
456        field "geothermalFlux" applied in S/R APPLY_FORCING_T (apply_forcing.F)
457    o model/src:
458      - move CYCLE_TRACER calls from tracers_correction_step.F to temp/salt/ptracer
459        _integrate.F so that, when leaving S/R THERMODYANMICS, theta,salt and pTrac
460        arrays are already updated while adjustments (filters, conv.adjustment) are
461        still applied later, in S/R TRACERS_CORRECTION_STEP.
462    o model/src:
463      - store in common bloc array "rhoInSitu" the virtual potential temperature
464        anomaly that is used to compute geopotential: this make the atmos code
465        more similar to ocean code which already uses rhoInSitu in calc_phi_hyd.F
466    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F
467      - rename integer variable ilcall to ipass (that's what it is called
468        in the residual diagnostics
469      - change time stepping for NPSEUDOTIMESTEP > 2 (does not change the
470        default) for improved non-linear convergence of the first few steps
471      - adjust a few comments and add new ones to explain some of the store
472        directives
473    o pkg/generic_advdiff (& ptracers):
474      - re-work the code to check for valid advection scheme and for minimum
475        size of overlap (now stored in local common bloc in gad_advscheme.F)
476    o pkg/seaice: another attempt to make the adjoint work for sea ice dynamics
477      - re-initialize more variables in seaice_lsr: u/vIceC, u/vIceNm1
478      - add an auxilliary variable "bet" and fix store directives and keys in
479        seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v, this seems to do the trick (i.e. more or
480        less exact gradients in my tests); but there are still
481        recomputation warning (although gradients are sort of OK), when
482        SEAICE_LSR_VECTORIZE is not defined, so this flag and
483        SEAICE_LSR_VECTORIZE_ZEBRA are recommended for efficiency.
484      - update verification experiments lab_sea.
485      - change some comments in S/R seaice_calc_viscosities
486    o model/src:
487      - if staggerTimeStep=T, always apply exchange to velocity field in
488        do_stagger_fields_exchanges.F instead of in do_fields_blocking_exchanges.F
489        (independent of using multi-dim advection or not); no effect on FWD run
490        but affects AD results (at machine truncation level): update output of
491        experiment 1D_ocean_ice_column (ad: 12 digits), hs94.1x64x5 (ad,oad: 13.d)
492        and isomip (oad: 12.d).
493    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
494      - stop if doAB_onGtGs is set to FALSE but ignored
495      - refine warning related to stability of tracer time-stepping
496        regarding internal wave dynamics.
497      - setting of AdamsBashforth_T,S when doAB_onGtGs=F: remove condition
498        on staggerTimeStep & implicitIntGravWave (will now get a warning
499        if potentially unstable).
500    o pkg/kl10:
501      - add new pkg "kl10" for mixing due to internal wave breaking, from
502        http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1463500310000144
503        (contribution from Jody Klymak), tested in verification experiment
504        verification/internal_wave/input.kl10/
505    o isomip experiment:
506      - test pkg/shelfice with Non-Lin Free-Surf in one of the FWD set-up
507        (input.htd) and update the output.
508    o cd_code experiments:
509      - use default cd_code options (#undef CD_CODE_NO_AB_MOMENTUM &
510        #undef CD_CODE_NO_AB_CORIOLIS) in experiments: cfc_example (fwd)
511        global_ocean.90x40x15 (ad & oad) and OpenAD (ad & oad) and
512        update the corresponding output.
513    o pkg/seaice:
514      - reduce the number of include files and store directives in
515        S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
516      - change the order of loops in one case in S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagv
517        (only for SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA defined), which allows me to
518        get rid off one store directive (a TAF bug?)
519      - add one more instance of ifdef SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA in
520        S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagv to change the loop range for consistency
521      - remove ilcall, m from parameter list of S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
522      - fix a bug that affects the JFNK solver: replace sNx/y by i/jMax in
523        S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v (requires update of
524        offline_exf_seaice/input.dyn_jfnk)
525    
526    checkpoint65a (2014/07/27)
527    o model/src:
528      - Non-Lin Free-Surf in p/z coords: allows hFacW,S to be larger than
529        surrounding hFacC=1 @ edge of a step with different kSurfC on either side
530        (topo in p-coords, ice-shelf in z-coords); update output of experiments
531        tutorial_global_oce_in_p and isomip (both AD and OpenAD output).
532    o model/src:
533      - collect momentum forcing tendency into local 2-D array (passed as argument
534        to apply_forcing S/R); this simplifies mom. Forcing diagnostics and CD_CODE
535        parts in timestep.F (without CD_CODE_NO_AB_MOMENTUM defined = the default);
536        affects results at machine truncation level (e.g., if using OBCS_SPONGE).
537      - collect T & S forcing tendency into local 2-D array (passed as argument to
538        apply_forcing S/R); add 3-D diagnostics for temp & salt forcing tendency.
539        affects results at machine truncation level (e.g., ocean: if using
540        SHORTWAVE_HEATING ; atmos: if using FrictionHeating or (atm_Rq<>0) moist
541        correction due to vertical advection).
542      - update output of experiments: fizhi-cs-32x32x40 (13 digits),
543        global_ocean.cs32x15 (fwd: icedyn, seaice, thsice, all 3 @ 11d; adm & tml:
544        seaice_dynmix & thsice, fwd grd @ 3 & 8), hs94.1x64x5 (ad grd @ 13),
545        obcs_ctrl (ad & fwd grd @ 12 & 7).
546    o pkg/ptracers & diagnostics:
547      - use ptracers (short) name (instead of long one) to make ptracers diagnostics
548        title (to avoid some unexpected truncation); sort out ptracers diags units.
549      - collect ptracer forcing tendency into local 2-D array (passed as argument
550        to apply_forcing S/R); add 3-D diagnostics for ptracers forcing tendency.
551    
552    checkpoint65 (2014/07/18)
553    o pkg/fizhi:
554      - add parenthesis around fizhi tendencies in fizhi_tendency_apply.F: this
555        affects results at machine truncation level. Update output of experiments
556        fizhi-cs-32x32x40 (12 digits for cg2d) & fizhi-cs-aqualev20 (13 digits).
557    o pkg/seaice: more clean up
558      - rename TAF common block tapes to be more consistent and remove
559        unnecessary duplicates
560      - add store directives to remove more recomputations, but use smaller
561        tapes (and adjust keys) when SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER is undefined.
562        The idea behind this flag is to reduce the memory footprint when the
563        adjoint of the LSR is not required. As of now, defining the flag
564        SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER increases 4 common block tapes for 2D field by
565        a factor of SOLV_MAX_FIXED (=500 by default in SEAICE_SIZE.h).
566        For experiment offline_exf_seaice, this means on a linux box with gfortran
567        nearly a factor of 10 (but keep in mind there is mostly seaice code in
568        this experiment):
569        > size mitgcmuv_ad
570        text    data        bss     dec        hex
571        5100659 1216  220458952  225560827  d71c8fb
572        5339425 1200 1868783272 1874123897 6fb4dc79 (SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER)
573        but only a moderate increase of 36% for global_ocean.cs32x15:
574        text    data        bss     dec        hex
575        6695027 1648 1014578664 1021275339 3cdf6ccb
576        6695203 1648 1382505320 1389202171 52cd8afb (SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER)
577      - note: there are still recomputations in global_ocean.cs32x15 and
578        offline_exf_seaice and the gradient agreement changes (gets a
579        little worse) for global_ocean.cs32x15 (-> update output_adm.seaice.txt)
580      - in general, the AD gradients still are wrong
581    o OpenAD
582      - clean up code_oad/ directories somewhat by moving files
583        dontCompile, dontTransform, keepOriginal to OAD_support/
584    o model/src:
585      - using MOM fluxform and Non-Lin Free-Surf with momDissip_In_AB=F
586        (not currently tested): add dissipation terms before NLFS rescaling of
587        tendencies (previously done after).
588    o pkg/diagnostics:
589      - write stats-diags in ascii file with more digits (same as in monitor).
590    o pkg/down_slope:
591      - drop the bi,bj dimension of argument recip_hFac in S/R DWNSLP_APPLY; with
592        NLFS (not tested), use new recip_hFac value in order to conserve tracer.
593    o model/src:
594      - new file "apply_forcing.F" containing all the code previously in
595        external_forcing.F, but with new argument list: pass, as new argument,
596        the current level tendency array to update (instead of a direct update
597        of the common bloc array). Change the corresponding calls.
598      - add CPP option USE_OLD_EXTERNAL_FORCING (default is undef) to use
599        EXTERNAL_FORCING_U,V,T,S subroutines (for backward compatibility).
600    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr, a little bit of clean up
601      - rearrange some code blocks, so that now all calculations for
602        setting up the right-hand-sides done within one single block
603        (I find that easier to read and understand)
604      - rearrange freedrift-code to reduce the number of ifdefs
605      - adjust some indentations and comments
606    
607    checkpoint64z (2014/07/10)
608    o model/src and several pkgs:
609      - change argument list of all S/R called from external_forcing.F and
610        called from ptracers_forcing.F (renamed to ptracers_apply_forcing.F)
611        to pass, as argument, the current level tendency array to update
612        (instead of a direct update of the common bloc array).
613      - change also (in the same way) argument list of PTRACERS_APPLY_FORCING;
614      - rename taueddy_external_forcing.f to taueddy_tendency_apply.F
615    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F
616      - always initialize local arrays in seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
617      - add more local tapes to seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
618      - move storing u/vice(:,:,bi,bj) out of seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v, but
619        keep it in bi/bj loop; this seems to be essential
620      - gradients are still wrong but only by 4-7 orders of magnitude
621        instead of 15 orders of magnitude, lab_sea improves a little
622    o pkg/seaice
623      - (pkg/autodiff) remove storing/restoring of seaiceMaskU/V that
624        generates unnecessary code in seaice_lsr_ad
625      - add more store directives in seaice_lsr to avoid unnecessary code
626        in seaice_lsr_ad
627      - exclude some residual computations in seaice_lsr when
628        ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC is defined in order to avoid unnecessary code
629        in seaice_lsr_ad
630      - add more storing, a new tape (model/src/the_main_loop.F) and
631        another key for SEAICE_LSR_VECTORIZE_ZEBRA (the local keys ilockey
632        and klockey should be checked by a specialist)
633      - modify ( define SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR and SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER )
634        and update lab_sea after previous changes in pkg/seaice below
635    o pkg/autodiff:
636      - introduce useSmoothCorrel2DinAdMode, SEAICEapproxLevInAd, and
637        viscFacInAd : run time parameters allowing for adjoint switches
638        note : logic for useSmoothCorrel2DinAdMode is in ctrl_readparms.F
639    o pkg/ecco:
640      - introduce cost_gencost_boxmean.F that computes a box mean
641        temperature (for use in adjoint sensitivity studies).
642    o model/src/set_defaults.F : initialize viscFacAdj to 1.
643    o pkg/mom_common/mom_calc_visc.F:
644      - ifdef ALLOW_AUTODIFF then include viscFacAdj factor.
645    o pkg/seaice/seaice_summary.F:
646      - statement for SEAICEadjMODE now in autodiff_readparms.F
647    o pkg/seaice:
648      - remove some store directives and add new ones in an effort to get
649        finally rid off the recomputation warnings. This is successful
650        when SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR ***and*** SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER are
651        defined (i.e. no extensive recomputation warnings left), but there
652        are still too many recomputations on the solver iteration level
653      - define SEAICE_VECTORISZE_LSR in offline_exf_seaice/code_ad/SEAICE_OPTIONS.h
654      - move definition of MPSEUDOTIMESTEPS into TAMC-block in
655        SEAICE_SIZE.h
656      - add a store directive in S/R seaice_calc_viscosities
657    o pkg/seaice (ITD code):
658      - fix definition of Hlimit for multi-threaded case
659      - use double precision arithmetic to compute Hlimit: this affects results;
660        update output of experiment seaice_itd.
661    o replace content of verification/seaice_itd
662      - instead of a 1D column use the configuration of offline_exf_seaice
663        to test the ice thickness distribution code with ridging
664      - this is a first shot at this experiment
665      - change of some defaults of ridging parameters SEAICEhStar (from
666        100 to 25) and SEAICEmuRidging (from 5 to 3) in seaice_readparms.F
667        and lot of new comments.
668    
669    checkpoint64y (2014/06/20)
670    o pkg/seaice/seaice_reg_ridge.F:
671      - modify the regularization of very small volumes of ice; only check
672        total volume HEFF, and do not apply correction to individual ice
673        classes because that leads to funny patterns in the heat and fw-fluxes
674        into the ocean. Adjust seaice_itd/results/output.txt
675      - replace nITD by SEAICE_multDim in loop-ranges
676    o pkg/exf:
677      - add code to process the case field period = -12. with UV interpolation.
678      - move debug print (formerly active when exf_verbose=T) from EXF_getFFieldRec
679        into S/R that calls it (i.e., exf_set_gen.F, exf_set_uv.F & obcs_exf_load.F)
680    o verification/global_with_exf:
681      - switch all fields period to -12. (was previously untested) in input/data.exf
682        (but keep secondary test ".yearly" unchanged); update the reference output.
683    o pkg/cal:
684      - new calendar type "noLeapYear" for 365 days calendar without any leap year.
685    o pkg/exf:
686      - new integer parameter "exf_debugLev" (default set to main model debugLevel)
687        to replace logical switch "exf_verbose"
688      - report in STDOUT when loading a new record (if exf_debugLev >= 3)
689    o pkg/sbo:
690      - update from Katherine Quinn: evaluate mass directly from density and SSH
691        (budget using Finite Volume method) instead of from bottom pressure.
692      - allow testreport to collect few selected SBO output ; tested in exp.
693        global_ocean.90x40x15 (after updating the results, to include SBO output).
694      - fix some multi-threading issues (in output part).
695    o model/src & most packages:
696      - always call {PKG}_READPARMS even if corresponding use{PKG}=F;
697      - in {PKG}_READPARMS, in case use{PKG}=F: add a call to new S/R
698        PACKAGES_UNUSED_MSG to print a weak warning when parameter file
699        "data.{pkg}" exist ; and leave the S/R (return) just after.
700      - more standard LAND pkg interface (land_init_fixed.F, land_check.F).
701        + call LAND_READPARMS from packages_readparms.F
702    o pkg/seaice:
703      - remove code that resets useThSice in S/R seaice_readparms and
704        replace it by a warning in S/R seaice_check
705      - remove parameter MULTDIM, replace with nITD and runtime
706        parameter SEAICE_multDim (still hard-wired to nITD if
707        SEAICE_ITD is defined)
708    
709    checkpoint64x (2014/05/24)
710    o verification/lab_sea:
711      - update adjoint and TLM output following changes to pkg/salt_plume
712      - un-do the update after putting back local recip_Cp in few places.
713    o pkg/salt_plume: modifications by An Nguyen:
714      - add capability to do brine rejection (salt-plume) as function of
715        volume+tracers (instead of only salinity tracer).
716      - conserve volume by exchanging volume from each kLev to above to
717        accommodate in-coming brine volume
718      - store surface and klev exchanged fraction + volume in 4 new 3-d arrays
719      - switch KPP surf buoyancy due to brine forcing to 3-d
720        (3 more 3-d arrays, 2 for SPforcing[T,S], 1 for boplume)
721      - add salt_plume_volfrac, salt_plume_apply, salt_plume_tendency_apply_t
722      - unrelatedly, also add ad-hoc capability to vary salt_plume scheme
723        in East/West Arctic.
724    o pkg/sbo:
725      - incorporate modifications from Katherine Quinn to enable the use of sbo
726        pkg in ECCO-v4 set-up ; remove SBO-TimeAve output ; add monitor-like
727        output for future testreport verification (unfinished).
728    o pkg/atm_phys:
729      - change diagnostics (AtPh_Trf & AtPh_Qrf) of DARGAN_BETTSMILLER S/R:
730        skip the reseting of t_ref & q_ref to initial t & q ; this preserve the
731        output of S/R CAPECALCNEW (Parcel temp & q) for diagnostics.
732    o pkg/seaice
733      seaice_calc_ice_strength.F: modify expression to avoid divisions
734        (affects truncation)
735      seaice_do_ridging.F: clean up the insectarium
736      - fix a bug that was compensated by areaScaling (-> remove areaScaling code)
737      - added SEAICEsnowFracRidge to redistributed snow (2nd bug)
738      - set closing/openingRate to zero where no extra iteration is need (3rd bug)
739      - add some debugging information and error messages (warnings)
740    o model/src: modifications relatd to atmosphere p*:
741      - Switch to more accurate p* coordinate slope term (calc_grad_phi_hyd.F)
742      - With p* or Sigma-P, use constant reference Pot.Temp (thetaConst) instead
743        of vertical profile tRef in geopotential background and anomaly.
744      - Acount for true p* correction in theta <-> T conversion in pkg/aim_v23
745        and pkg/atm_phys.
746      - Update FWD output of experiments: aim.5l_cs (x2), fizhi-cs-32x32x40,
747        fizhi-cs-aqualev20, fizhi-gridalt-hs, tutorial_held_suarez_cs, cpl_aim+ocn.
748    o pkg/seaice: fix a bug in seaice_prepare_ridging.F, forgot a sqrt
749    o pkg/ptracers: compute ptracer source/sink due to linear free surface.
750        not used right now, but can be used in BGC packages to fix conservation.
751    o pkg/dic, pkg/gchem: move tracer_meanarea to gchem, so it can be used by
752        other packages too.
753    o pkg/seaice/seaice_calc_ice_strength.F: replace SEAICE_rhoSnow by
754        SEAICE_rhoIce in the Rothrock (1975)-type strength calculations (bug fix)
755    o model/src:
756      - since we have several heat capacity (even in model/src), define "recip_Cp"
757        as local variable (no longer in common block) to avoid any confusion.
758      - add thetaConst in PARAMS.h (to be used with pStar or sigma-P coords).
759    o pkg/exf:
760      - from Jeff Scott: add option (#define EXF_CALC_ATMRHO) to calculate local
761        air density as function of air Temp, Humidity and atm pressure.
762    
763    checkpoint64w (2014/05/02)
764    o verification:
765      - update output_adm.txt files for experiment global_ocean.cs32x15 (seaice &
766        seaice_dynmix) and lab_sea (primary test & noseaicedyn): moving/changing
767        code from seaice_growth.F & seaice_advdiff.F to new ridging routines
768        seaice_reg_ridge.F seaice_do_ridging.F affects AD gradient
769        (down to 8-7 matching digits for global_ocean and 5-6 for lab_sea).
770    o model/src: for atmosphere in p* coords:
771      - store factor rStarFacC**atm_kappa (= pStarFacK) in common block
772      - implement more accurate p* coordinate slope term (in calc_grad_phi_hyd.F),
773        but not yet activated.
774    o pkg/seaice: fix restart problem for ITD with new ice strength parameterisation:
775      - move computation of opnWtrFrac = 1-AREA to before computing ice strength
776      - this changes the results (but not for any verification experiment, because
777        none tests this), but avoids having an extra field in the restart files
778    o pkg/seaice: remove global variable TICE (not needed)
779      - replace by TICES or local variable where necessary (cost_seaice_test,
780        seaice_diagnostics_state)
781      - move copying TICE to TICES from seaice_check_pickup to seaice_read_pickup
782      - use specific read/write routines for reading and writing individual leves
783        of a multilevel field
784    o pkg/ctrl & model/inc:
785      - move additional anomaly fields of control vars (related to options:
786         ALLOW_KAPGM_CONTROL, ALLOW_KAPREDI_CONTROL and ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG_CONTROL)
787        from DYNVARS.h into new header file: CTRL_FIELDS.h
788    o pkg/seaice: some small modifications to the ridging code
789      - make fw2ObyRidge a global variable and add the freshwater flux to
790        seaice_growth
791      - pass actual thickness from seaice_prepare_ridging, so that it is
792        computed only in one place and compute it in the same way as in
793        seaice_growth
794      - initialise more fields in seaice_do_ridging that where cause floating
795        point exceptions over land
796    o pkg/seaice: preparations for ridging code and first real ridging code
797      - move most of "PART 1" of S/R seaice_growth into a new and separate
798        S/R seaice_reg_ridge that will both regularize the state variable after
799        advection call the actual ridging routine;
800      - requires to make 5 fields global fields: d_HEFFbyNEG,d_HSNWbyNEG,
801        d_AREAbyRLX,d_HEFFbyRLX,saltFluxAdjust;
802      - remove ridging code from seaice_advdiff
803      - clean up remaining part 1 of seaice_growth in an attempt to make it
804        more readable (this is probably subjective)
805      - call seaice_itd_redist once in the initialisation phase to have the initial
806        conditions in the correct category
807      - finally: add new ridging routine for ITD code
808    
809    checkpoint64v (2014/04/11)
810    o pkg/ecco:
811      - add runtime parameters mdt[start,end]date[1,2]
812      - rename variable "tpmean" as "mdt" and "topexmeanfile" as "mdtdatfile"
813    o pkg/seaice:
814      - make deltaC a global variable, so that it can be used in ridging code
815      - first step towards ridging: introduce new routines that compute
816        ice strength based on ridging parameters
817      - add diagnostic for HSNOWITD
818      - add opnWtrFrac as a global variable (required for ridging scheme)
819    o pkg/salt_plume + pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F
820      - add SALT_PLUME_IN_LEADS flag to activate pkg/salt_plume only when ice
821        AREA exceeds a threshold (code contributed by I.Fenty in 2011)
822    o verification/hs94.1x64x5:
823      - leave ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC undefined in code_oad/AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h
824      - do not use ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h anymore for TAF & OpenAD Adjoint tests.
825    o autodiff:
826      - Start to include explicitly AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, COST_OPTIONS.h,
827        and CTRL_OPTIONS.h in src files (to enable to skip the ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h)
828        For now, only in pkgs used in verification/hs94.1x64x5.
829      - Replace ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC by ALLOW_AUTODIFF (except for tape/storage
830        which are specific to TAF/TAMC).
831      - Replace ALLOW_AUTODIFF_OPENAD by ALLOW_OPENAD:
832        since ALLOW_OPENAD is defined in PACKAGES_CONFIG.h (any time pkg/openad
833        is compiled), this simplifies/reduces which *_OPTIONS.h file to include.
834      - OpenAD: change Makefile to generate the appropriate AD_CONFIG.h when
835        building mitgcmuv_ad (make adAll).
836    o pkg/ecco:
837      - cost_gencost_seaicev4.F:
838         reformulate proxy cost as function of sst and local param SEAICE_freeze
839         change cost names from siv4-[sst,vol] to siv4-[deconc,exconc]
840      - add stop statement if old names siv4-[sst,vol] are used
841      - add snapshots + cost reports for atmospheric longwave
842      - remove factor 0.1 in front of wtau[u,v]
843      - replace never used flag ALLOW_TMI_COST_CONTRIBUTION with
844         ALLOW_TMI_SST_COST_CONTRIBUTION
845    o pkg/atm_phys:
846      - add some diagnostics for Short-wave and for convection S/R.
847    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth:
848      - fix a bug in the lateral melt parameterization for SEAICE_ITD
849        in seaice_growth; tempFrz needs to be computed inside the i/j-loop
850      - rearrange loop order for better vector code in the same code block
851      - rewrite the floeDiameter formula to have fewer divisions
852      -  (miraculously) none of this changes the results of seaice_itd
853    o pkg/smooth:
854      - move param smooth2Ddiffnbt to pkg/ecco
855    o pkg/salt_plume:
856      - salt_plume_frac.F:
857         clean up local param names
858         reformulate (1-frac) to frac; original 1-frac was based on swfrac code
859    o pkg/rw:
860      - add RS version of S/R READ_MFLDS_LEV.
861    o pkg/streamice:
862      - fix the restart test by writing/reading pickup_streamice files.
863    o pkg/seaice:
864      - refine checks for jfnk-related parameters
865      - comment out if statement with SEAICEuseIMEX parameter as long as there
866        is no IMEX code to avoid confusion and surprises
867    
868    checkpoint64u (2014/03/07)
869    o verification/MLAdjust:
870      - rename secondary test suffix:
871         1.leith  -> A4FlxF  + switch to flux-form & add side-drag
872         0.leithD -> AhFlxF  + switch to flux-form
873         0.smag   -> AhVrDv  (use Vorticity-Div. visc form) + add side-drag
874         0.leith  -> AhStTn  (use Strain-Tension visc form) + add side-drag
875    o pkg/mom_vecinv:
876      - remove unused arguments from S/R MOM_VI_HDISSIP & MOM_HDISSIP (as it used
877        to be before mom_calc_visc.F)
878      - skip the call to MOM_CALC_TENSION & MOM_CALC_STRAIN if not needed.
879      - add 2nd copy of vort3 & strain that knows about lateral BC (free/no slip):
880        this is simpler for the adjoint and for diagnostics.
881    o model/src + pkg/momentum:
882      - add input files for  2-D additional Western and Southern cell-edge wall
883         (e.g., to add "thin-wall" where it is =1).
884      - fix sideDrag option for thin-walls with Non-Lin Free-Surf
885        using 2nd hFacZ that is computed from initial (fix domain) hFac
886      - known limitations of thin wall implementation: not yet coded for sigma
887        coords; not working with CD-scheme neither.
888    o pkg/seaice:
889      - rename recently introduced parameters from (wrong name) AB to
890        BDF (backward difference time discretisation)
891      - retire runtime parameters SEAICEuseAB2, SEAICE_abEps
892    o tools/adjoint_options:
893      - remove setting of "OPENAD=true" (now set by command line "genmake2 -oad")
894    
895    checkpoint64t (2014/02/01)
896    o pkg/ecco
897      - add compile flag ALLOW_GENCOST_TIMEVARY_WEIGHT in ECCO_OPTIONS.h and
898        runtime logical flag gencost_timevaryweight to read daily sea-ice sigma
899      - replace hard-coded record number and period which only work for monthly
900        with read-in runtime param that works for other periods (month,day,year)
901    o pkg/thsice
902      - corrected store directive fixes thsice adjoint gradient checks
903    o genmake2 & testreport:
904      - add genmake2 option "-oad" to generate a Makefile for OpenAD built and
905        in this case, use tools/adjoint_options/adjoint_oad as default AD optfile.
906        Update testreport accordingly. No need to set "export OPENAD=true"
907        in adjoint_options/adjoint_oad anymore (will be removed later).
908    o pkg/shelfice:
909      - put T & S shelfice forcing into model surfaceForcing_T,_S (for now,
910        only if SHELFICEboundaryLayer=F); Change model/src/external_forcing.F
911        so that surface forcing applies to k=kSurf if using pkg/shelfice.
912    o pkg/ctrl, pkg/grdchk, pkg/ecco:
913      - Changes to make GENARR more modular (i.e. invisible if not used)
914    o model/src/temp_integrate.F and salt_integrate.F
915      - re-include store directives that were removed on Dec 27th.
916    o model/src/external_forcing_surf.F
917      - add storage directives for EmPmR and PmEpR to avoid recomputation of
918        seaice_model in the adjoint that is problematic when seaice_model is
919        turned off in the adjoint. The resolved issue dated back to July when
920        EXTERNAL_FORCING_SURF call was moved.
921        Update global_ocean.cs32x15/*/output_adm.seaice_dynmix.txt accordingly.
922    o pkg/exf/exf_check.F
923      - fix a small bug again (originally found by Wentao Liu, now found again)
924      - streamline error output
925    o pkg/streamice and aim_v23:
926      - replace a few "_EXCH_XY_RL (" with "_EXCH_XY_RL(", so that
927        Apple's /usr/bin/cpp knows what to do:
928        Apple LLVM version 5.0 (clang-500.2.79) (based on LLVM 3.3svn)
929        Target: x86_64-apple-darwin13.0.0
930    
931    checkpoint64s (2014/01/05)
932    o tools/adjoint_options:
933      - switch to fastopt.net TAF server (instead of default fastopt.de) for
934        AD optfiles adjoint_diva & adjoint_f95 (similar to adjoint_default).
935    o model/src:
936      - remove some unnecessary TAF storage directives in forward_step.F and
937        in dynamics.F (note: not always removed by TAF, e.g., double storage
938        of kappaRU,kappaRV in former version of dynamics.F).
939    o model/src & pkg/ptracers:
940      - call directly GAD_IMPLICIT_R & IMPLDIFF + DWNSLP_APPLY from temp_integrate.F
941        salt_integrate.F and ptracers_integrate.F (instead of from thermodynamics.F)
942        and remove ptracers_dwnslp_apply.F & ptracers_implicit.F
943      - call MATRIX_STORE_TENDENCY_EXP for each tracer (in ptracers_integrate.F)
944      - add fZon & fMer as output argument of S/R GAD_CALC_RHS.
945      - update TAF AD-output of experiments global_ocean.90x40x15 (13 for AD-grad).
946    o useSingleCpuInput separates single-CPU input from single-CPU output;
947        for now only implemented for in exf_interp_read.F
948    o verification/advect_xy:
949      - fix missing EXCH call in local version of ini_salt.F and update output.
950    o momentum diagnostics:
951      - fix which deltaT is used in Total-Tendency diagnostics.
952      - fix typo in diagnostics for momentum tendency from AB.
953    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F: fix an initialisation bug for the
954        SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA option that lead to NaNs on a NEC-SX8
955    
956    checkpoint64r (2013/12/08)
957    o verification/*/results:
958      - Update reference output of experiments that were passing with just 13 digits
959         (make it easier to detect future changes in results)
960    o model/src & pkg/ptracers:
961      - move calls to GAD_ADVECTION (Multi-Dim advection) from thermodynamics.F to
962        inside temp_integrate.F and salt_integrate.F and from ptracers_advection.F
963        to inside ptracers_integrate.F ; remove ptracers_advection.F
964    o coupling interface pkgs:
965        [atm_compon_interf, ocn_compon_interf & atm_ocn_coupler]
966      - change the config check to test the agreement of Ocean Depth
967        with ATM land/sea mask (instead of ATM orography);
968      - send to coupler the number of coupler time-steps to do for this run:
969        this allows to check for consistency and don't need anymore to be
970        specified in parameter file "data";
971      in coupler:
972      - check consistency of RunOff map versus Ocean Depth and ATM land/sea mask.
973      - improve report to log-file of config setting (pass log-file unit to few S/R)
974    o pkg/compon_communic:
975      - add coupling send/receive for non-tiled integer vector;
976      - add S/R to check and stop if any proc has an error (similar to
977        eesupp/src/stop_if_error.F but single thread and across Comm_World).
978    o pkg/exch2:
979      - in exch2*_get_rx[1,2]: use new list "W2_tileIndex" to replace search
980        through list of all tiles my proc owns.
981    o model/src:
982      - AUTODIFF only: in calc_adv_flow.F, recompute rTransKp (instead of copying
983        from rTrans) to simplify dependencies (no need to store rTrans anymore in
984        calling S/R); this affects AD results at machine truncation level:
985        update AD-output (TAF) of experiments: 1D_ocean_ice_column,
986        bottom_ctrl_5x5 & obcs_ctrl (12 digits for AD grad, same FWD grad).
987    o tools/build_options:
988      - simplify Warnings options (-ieee & -devel cases) in linux_amd64_gfortran
989    o coupling interface pkgs:
990        [compon_communic, atm_compon_interf & ocn_compon_interf]
991      - move declaration of local array "ibuf" out of header file "CPLR_SIG.h"
992        to each S/R that needs it; remove un-used variables.
993      - change component tile registration (cpl_register.F in both compon_interf
994        and mitcomponent_tile_register.F) to pass the full list of tiles
995        information (including bi,bj) in 1 vector (instead of in a bi,bj matrix).
996      - with pkg/exch2: adopt the same convention used for I/O to define mapping
997        towards coupler global array (unless W2_useE2ioLayOut=F):
998         a) can now use different tiling between atm & ocn comp.
999         b) no needs to modify the run-Off map when changing tiling (was needed
1000            even if using the same tiling between atm & ocn).
1001         c) will allow to run with blank-tiles in 1 component (e.g., for ocean
1002            full land tiles); not yet tested.
1003      - check for valid mapping from comp. tile to coupler global array
1004      - improve report of tile registration results to log file.
1005    o pkg/exch2:
1006      - in eesupp/src/eeboot.F: move call to W2_EEBOOT before Coupler
1007        tile-registration (CPL_REGISTER);
1008      - activate (un-comment) definition and setting of "W2_tileIndex" list to
1009        store the local bi,bj indices of each tile;
1010      - also print bi,bj in local report to log file;
1011      - fix pkg/debug/debug_cs_corner_uv.F for the case nSy > 1 (left from
1012        Jun 2009 modif of pkg/exch2).
1013    o testing on baudelaire:
1014      - run 2 tests at a time: no significant slow down (since enough cpu) and
1015        get the full set of test done earlier
1016      - switch the ifort test to "-devel" ; run the OpenAD test everyday.
1017    o model/src/thermodynamics.F and routines called from it:
1018      - pkg/gmredi: gmredi_residual_flow.F (replacing gmredi_calc_uvflow.F &
1019        gmredi_calc_wflow.F) to update eulerian velocity (input) into residual
1020        velocity (outp) by adding bolus velocity.
1021      - model/src: calc_adv_flow.F (replacing calc_common_factors.F) to compute
1022        mass transport from velocity + lateral grid cell area
1023      - rename calc_gt.F to temp_integrate.F (includes call to TIMESTEP_TRACER)
1024      - rename calc_gs.F to salt_integrate.F (includes call to TIMESTEP_TRACER)
1025     in thermodynamics.F
1026      - remove k from thermodynamics.F and move it to temp_integrate.F
1027        salt_integrate.F and ptracers_integrate.F (now done inside the tracer
1028        loop).
1029      - compute locally (in thermodynamics.F) 3-D velocity field that is used to
1030        advect tracers; pass it as argument to GAD_ADVECTION, GAD_SOM_ADVECT,
1031        PTRACERS_ADVECTION, TEMP_INTEGRATE, SALT_INTEGRATE, PTRACERS_INTEGRATE,
1032        GAD_IMPLICIT_R and PTRACERS_IMPLICIT
1033      - update AD-output (TAF & OAD) of experiments: 1D_ocean_ice_column,
1034        global_ocean.90x40x15, tutorial_global_oce_biogeo and
1035        tutorial_tracer_adjsens (+ TLM output).
1036    o tools/OAD_support and (verification/*/) code_oad:
1037      - OAD_support/cb2mGetModules.csh: add PACKAGES_CONFIG.h in header file to
1038        module conversion ; remove unneeded CPP_EEOPTIONS.h.
1039      - code_oad/CPP_OPTIONS.h: remove PACKAGES_CONFIG.h and use a more standard
1040        version (closer to model/inc/CPP_OPTIONS.h).
1041    o model/src:
1042      - remove parameter "useOldFreezing" from PARAMS.h and push it to the
1043        retired list of parameters (routine FREEZE has been replace by surface
1044        freezing (10.yrs ago) and by pkg/frazil (interior freezing).
1045    o pkg/gmredi:
1046      - add option (GM_CALC_TRANSP_FROM_VEL) to compute transport directly from
1047        velocity (same scheme but affects machine truncation) for GM_AdvForm.
1048      - update output of FWD experiments: front_relax.bvp,
1049        global_ocean.90x40x15.dwnslp, global_ocean.cs32x15 and ideal_2D_oce.
1050    
1051    checkpoint64q (2013/11/17)
1052    o verification:
1053      - generate new output on baudelaire (gfortran, -ieee) for OpenAD experiments
1054        tutorial_global_oce_biogeo and global_ocean.90x40x15.
1055      - generate new output (growth & melt) for seaice_itd experiment after
1056        updating the input pickup_seaice files (previously wrong).
1057    o pkg/cost:
1058      - define a "final cost function" for each tile, and use GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL
1059        (instead of _GLOBAL_SUM_RL) to get the final cost from all procs & threads:
1060        o this fixes global-sum value if multi-threads (since GLOBAL_SUM_RL
1061          cannot be applied to var in common block).
1062        o allows to get results independent of tile-per-proc setting (if using
1063          slower GLOBAL_SUM_SEND_RECV option).
1064      - update accordingly: seaice_cost_final.F, shelfice_cost_final.F,
1065        thsice_cost_final.F and ecco_cost_final.F (this one affects lab_sea
1066        forward gradients: update output).
1067      - update */code_oad/externalDummies.F by adding dummy GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL
1068        S/R and, for most exp., also comment out GLOBAL_SUM_R8.
1069    o pkg/mom_common:
1070      - move to pkg/mom_common and model/src (previously in tutorial_deep_convection
1071        code) 2nd version of isotropic 3-D Smagorinsky code interface: strain and
1072        viscosity are locally declared in dynmics.F and pass as argument to CALC_GW;
1073        ensure that all field value that are used are set.
1074    o tutorial_deep_convection (smag3d):
1075      - add missing scaling in mom_calc_smag_3d.F;
1076      - set smag3D_coeff in input.smag3d such that results do not change.
1077    o pkg/dic:
1078      - change dic_cost.F to compute cost on each tile first and then apply
1079        GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL: this affects forward gradient of AD experiments
1080        tutorial_dic_adjoffline & tutorial_global_oce_biogeo; update output.
1081      - remove kLev argument and use GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL in tracer_meanarea.
1082    o eesupp/src & pkg/mdsio:
1083      - remove gather/scatter_vector.F (from eesupp) and mdsio_read/writevector.F
1084        (from pkg/mdsio) since they are no longer used for tape IO.
1085      - move simple C subroutine "setdir.c" from pkg/compon_communic to eesupp/src
1086        (+ keep a copy in pkg/atm_ocn_coupler).
1087    o verification/isomip:
1088      - split domain in 8 squared tiles (instead of just 2) for FWD, AD & OAD tests.
1089    o tools/build_options:
1090      - optfile linux_amd64_ifort11, fast (no ieee) case:
1091        to get a working restart for all experiments, add "-fp-model source"
1092        to FOPTIM (also remove "-opt-streaming-stores auto" <- this is the default).
1093    
1094    checkpoint64p (2013/10/20)
1095    o pkg/autodiff:
1096      - adread_adwrite.F: when type and length do not match ALLOW_AUTODIFF_WHTAPEIO
1097        criteria, return to simple (default) tape IO format.
1098    o pkg/mdsio (+ eesupp/src):
1099      - rewrite/simplify tape-IO S/R (new S/R MDS_READ/WRITE_TAPE replace
1100        previous MDSREAD/WRITEVECTOR) with 2 array argument from each type (R4/R8);
1101      - fix globalFile and singleCpuIO options using simpler global mapping.
1102      - new pairs of scatter/gather vector S/R (one for each type, generated from
1103        template) corresponding to simpler global mapping.
1104      - adread_write.F: switch to new S/R (but leave old calls commented) and write
1105        to globalFile when parameter globalFiles is set to True.
1106      - switch on useSingleCpuIO in AD experiments: global_ocean.90x40x15 & isomip.
1107    o pkg/autodiff:
1108      - adread_adwrite.F: add a hack for RS arrays (when RS=real*4);
1109        with ALLOW_AUTODIFF_WHTAPEIO defined, since corresponding (real*4) is
1110        missing, just add a STOP if array type do not match.
1111    o pkg/exf:
1112      - to allow to use seaice-fraction from pkg/exf in other pkgs than pkg/seaice:
1113         rename CPP option EXF_ALLOW_SEAICE_RELAX to EXF_SEAICE_FRACTION
1114         and rename array obsSIce to exf_iceFraction.
1115    o tutorial_deep_convection:
1116      - add 1rst version of isotropic 3-D Smagorinsky code (from Louis-Philippe),
1117        for now all in this exp. code dir.
1118      - add secondary test using Smag-3D viscosity (keep very low backgroud visc for
1119        testing) and flux-limter advection scheme for Temp. (no explicit diffusion).
1120    o eesupp/src:
1121      - added SINGLE_DISK_IO option because reading of parameter files on
1122        very large number of processors did not work with existing set-up
1123    
1124    checkpoint64o (2013/09/25)
1125    o pkg/atm_phys & atm_compon_interf:
1126      - allows for coupling of gray-atmosphere (atm_phys) with ocean.
1127    o tools/build_options:
1128      - switch from "-fPIC" to "-mcmodel=medium" in optfiles: linux_amd64_gfortran
1129        & linux_amd64_ifort11 and in linux_amd64_g77 & linux_amd64_open64 also
1130        remove CPP setting (was identical to genmake2 default).
1131    o pkg/gmredi & model/src: Some updating and work done on the residual model.
1132      - created new file model/src/calc_eddy_stress.F to calculate the eddy stress.
1133      - fixed up the calculation of the eddy stress and how it is added to the
1134        external forcing via taueddy_external_forcing.F
1135      - at the moment, it is very experimental and only works with the variable eddy
1136        diffusivity calculated in gmredi_k3d.F
1137    o pkg/seaice/seaice_check.F: add a check to catch the case of specifying
1138        lw/swfluxfile instead of lw/swdownfile in data.exf together with pkg/seaice
1139    o testreport (& tools/do_tst_2+2):
1140      - for MPI test, set default COMMAND to 'mpirun -v -np TR_NPROC ./{executable}'
1141    o tools/build_options: linux_amd64_gfortran & linux_amd64_ifort11:
1142      - remove CPP='cpp -traditional -P' (this is genmake2 default)
1143      - add switch (for big setups) to use 'medium' memory-model (but leave it
1144        commented out for now). Note: needed with FC 19 to compile big setups.
1145    o pkg/atm_compon_interf:
1146      - regroup per field origin (model & pkgs) the coupling storage routines
1147         (which accumalate in time each coupling field)
1148      - move bi,bj loops inside atm_store_my_data.F and store also wind-stress;
1149        update accordingly + simplify aim_do_physics.F
1150    
1151    checkpoint64n (2013/08/26)
1152    o pkg/bbl:
1153      - update formulation to reduce dispersion of tracer properties in bbl
1154      - replaced horizontal and vertical transport parameters with velocities
1155      - changes results for verification/global_with_exf.yearly
1156    o verification/halfpipe_streamice:
1157      - change to matrix construction; update both Fwd & AD output.
1158    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens:
1159      - OpenAD test: switch to vector-invariant momentum since fluxform with
1160        rStar causes problems with OpenAD; update output.
1161    o tools:
1162      - genmake2: define a common prefix for all temp-file names ; move them
1163        to local /tmp disk (but would be easy to move them back);
1164      - xmakedepend: apply the same switch for temp-files.
1165    o pkg/offline:
1166      - changes for use with rStar (NLFS): assume that we continue to provide
1167        UVELMASS/hFacW_ini & VVELMASS/hFacS_ini (hFacWi,S_ini as written in grid
1168        output files) and apply r* scaling at each time-step (function of the time
1169        varying Eta field); use normal pickup files (needed for restart with NLFS).
1170    o adjoint with OpenAD:
1171      - move OpenAD-specific files from verification/OpenAD/code_oad_all to a new
1172        package openad.  This package has to be compiled for all runs with OpenAD
1173        instead of specifying code_oad_all as a modification directory.
1174      - link the fortran templates from tools/OAD_support to the build directory
1175        for preprocessing to avoid conflicts between different setups compiled
1176        simultaneously and simplify cleanup.
1177    o pkg/exf:
1178      - in exf_getforcing.F: comment out most of the EXCH calls (fields used by
1179        main model or other pkgs are exchanged in EXF_MAPFIELDS).
1180    o model/src:
1181      - do_stagger_fields_exchanges.F: skip EXCH calls when using pkg/offline
1182        (similar to do_fields_blocking_exchanges.F).
1183    o tools/genmake2:
1184      - remove TAF output src code just before calling staf (when not doing a fresh
1185        built, will stop if things go wrong with staf).
1186      - fix target "adobj" (left from TAF version-2 transition)
1187    o pkg/diagnostics:
1188      - add a parameter to track the status of pkg/diagnostics activation;
1189        this replace/extend the use of logical param "settingDiags" (to check
1190        when adding diag to the list) to also check any DIAGNOSTICS_[]FILL* call.
1191        New S/R to print error message and stop when pkgStatus is not right.
1192      - to try: add a warning when "data.diagnostics" exist but useDiagnostics=F.
1193    
1194    checkpoint64m (2013/08/13)
1195    o model/inc:
1196      - move FCORI_MACROS.h from PARAMS(_MACROS).h to GRID_MACROS.h (left from
1197        8 yrs ago modif when Coriolis arrays were moved from PARAMS.h to GRID.h)
1198    o pkg/kpp & aim_v23:
1199      - only call DIAGNOSTICS_FILL when useDiagnostics=TRUE.
1200    o pkg/seaice:
1201      - restore (last time on 2011/12/24) ability to compile pkg/seaice with
1202        undefined pkg/exf ALLOW_ATM_TEMP or ALLOW_RUNOFF CPP-options.
1203      - only call DIAGNOSTICS_FILL when useDiagnostics=TRUE.
1204    o eesupp/src:
1205      - fix check for overlap-size argument (myOLn.GT.MAX_OLY_EXCH)
1206        in exch1_rx[_ad].template (thanks to Francois Lefeuvre report).
1207    o switch to TAF version-2:
1208      - add flow directives to "freeze" naming convention for ad-routines that
1209        are used in I/O routines of adjoint state and associated common blocks
1210        that are used in adcommon.h (backward compatible with version-1)
1211      - update all ad-optfiles (in tools/adjoint_options + few local to some
1212        verification exp) to switch to latest TAF version (currently 2.5.5);
1213        merge "*_mpi" adoptfiles into the corresponding non-mpi (but commented
1214        out except for diva).
1215      - the major change with TAF version-2 is that both the differentiated
1216        routines and the forward routines (new) are returned as part of the TAF
1217        output source code. Update genmake2 accordingly.
1218      - new output for AD experiment tutorial_global_oce_biogeo (better AD gradient
1219        with version-2 when compared to TLM or FWD gradient); other experiments
1220        output show minor changes (machine truncation level); update the few AD &
1221        TLM output with 12 matching digits only (some prior to version-2 switch).
1222    
1223    checkpoint64l (2013/08/05)
1224    o model/src:
1225      - in dynamics.F, skip the call to CALC_VISCOSITY if momViscosity=F
1226      - main_do_loop.F: no longer includes additional (AUTODIFF) header files
1227        when using TAF but only if using OpenAD.
1228    o pkg/mom_common+fluxform+vecinv:
1229      - always set horiz. viscosity arrays to background value before calling
1230        MOM_CALC_VISC (in MOM_FLUXFORM & MOM_VECINV) and call S/R MOM_CALC_VISC
1231        only when using variable horiz. viscosity (useVariableVisc=T);
1232      - simplify mom_vecinv.F (only 1 block for momViscosity).
1233    o pkg/mom_common: variable horiz. viscosity in NH code
1234      - move horiz-viscosity 3-D arrays viscAh_W & viscA4_W (used in calc_gw.F)
1235        from model/inc/NH_VARS.h to pkg/mom_common/MOM_VISC.h
1236      - store in common block (in MOM_VISC.h) logical parameters: useHarmonicVisc,
1237        useBiharmonicVisc & useVariableVisc.
1238      - fix old bug (already in 1rst implementation of variable horizontal viscosity
1239        in calc_gw.F, version 1.27, 2006/06/20):
1240        horizontal bi-harmonic viscosity in gW was missing when wiscA4W=0
1241        even if variable bi-harmonic viscosity (e.g., viscA4Grid) was non-zero.
1242      - change background horiz viscosity in vertical momentum (gW) to always be
1243        viscAhW,viscA4W (instead of switching to viscAhD, viscA4D when using
1244        any type of variable viscosity, e.g., viscAh/4Grid)
1245      - change default value of viscAhW,viscA4W to viscAhD,viscA4D (instead of
1246        viscAh,viscA4) which default to viscAh,viscA4 :  this avoid missing
1247        horiz. viscosity in W eq when just setting viscAhD/Z,viscA4D/Z (since
1248        default viscAh,viscA4 is zero).
1249    o model/src:
1250      - extend length of drC & recip_drC from Nr to Nr+1.
1251    o Divided Adjoint (DIVA) with MPI:
1252      - genmake2: do not create local ./mpi_headers dir when no file to copy into.
1253      - remove option ALLOW_DIVIDED_ADJOINT_MPI (replaced by ALLOW_DIVIDED_ADJOINT
1254        and ALLOW_USE_MPI) from model/src code and from ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h.
1255    
1256    checkpoint64k (2013/07/23)
1257    o tools/OAD_support:
1258      - avoid the need for file "oadtempflile" in insertTemplateDir.bash
1259        and remove it from genmake2.
1260    o tools/build_options:
1261      - remove MPI_HEADER_FILES_INC setting (no longer used) and comment out
1262        MPI_HEADER_FILES list (let genmake2 find the missing headers)
1263    o verification/halfpipe_streamice:
1264      - change to driving stress formulation; update both Fwd & AD output.
1265    o tools/genmake2 and Divided Adjoint with MPI:
1266      - remove default setting of MPIINCLUDEDIR from $MPIHOME (always been broken);
1267      - only create local ./mpi_headers dir if using MPI and MPIINCLUDEDIR is set;
1268      - add new variable (LOCAL_MPI_HEADERS, replace MPI_HEADER_FILES_INC) in
1269        Makefile, which is set by genmake2, and check which mpi-headers are needed.
1270        Note: need to update adjoint_options/adjoint_diva_mpi accordingly.
1271      - update target "CLEAN" (to also remove ./mpi_headers/ dir).
1272    o testreport:
1273      - changes for Divided Adjoint Run: when file "run_ADM_DIVA" is present,
1274        perform additional runs (number of additional runs is "add_DIVA_runs" taken
1275        from file run_ADM_DIVA ; should match "nchklev_3" in file "code_ad/tamc.h").
1276    o verification/lab_sea (AD test):
1277      - change to test Divided Adjoint Run in this set-up (both standard AD test
1278        and 2 secondary AD test: noseaice + noseaicedyn); drop the evp AD test.
1279    o pkg atm_ & ocn_compon_interf:
1280      - remove cpl_earlyExpImpCall=F option (was mainly a hack added for the old
1281        staggerTimeStep implementation) and disable (retired) corresponding
1282        parameter.
1283    o pkg/offline:
1284      - comment out unused field-array: ICEM, ConvectCount, hflx[01], icem[01];
1285      - add S/R OFFLINE_CHECK to print offline parameter summary
1286        and stop if loading a file that is not used;
1287      - enable to calculate GMRedi tensor, KPP mixing and convective index
1288        when the corresponding file(s) is/are not specified (but pkg is used).
1289      - comment out resetting of monitorFreq (to endTime) since it still useful
1290        for monitoring CFL numbers and checking offline fields.
1291    o OpenAD:
1292      - do not define OAD_DEBUG (in tools/adjoint_options/adjoint_oad) to get
1293        smaller standard output) and generate new (smaller) output (on baudelaire
1294        using gfortran with -ieee) for exp. tutorial_tracer_adjsens
1295    o model/src:
1296      - call EXTERNAL_FORCING_SURF outside bi,bj loops (in do_oceanic_phys.F),
1297        (where external_forcing_adjust was called) and change list of arguments;
1298      - merge external_forcing_adjust.F into external_forcing_surf.F
1299      - put surface relaxation of SST & SSS in new S/R (forcing_surf_relax.F)
1300        which also contains balancing surface relaxation (ALLOW_BALANCE_RELAX,
1301        previously in file "balance_relax.F", now removed); remove corresponding
1302        arrays in FFIELDS.h.
1303      - EXTERNAL_FORCING_SURF is now called when using pkg/offline; implement
1304        a hack for getting back surfaceForcingS (loaded from file) when using
1305        ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX (pkg/dic, in DIC_OPTIONS.h) in offline set-up.
1306      - update output of AD test experiment global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice_dynmix
1307        (was getting only 11 digits for AD-grad, due to different truncation
1308         error in AD code).
1309    
1310    checkpoint64j (2013/07/04)
1311    o pkg/offline:
1312      - to enable the use of other features with pkg offline (e.g., obcs),
1313        also call S/R DO_OCEANIC_PHYS in offline run - more modifs to come.
1314      - comment out "allowFreezing" (now active) in 2 offline testing exp.
1315    o pkg/exf ALLOW_RUNOFTEMP
1316      - fix sign and make compatible with temp_EvPrRn .NE. UNSET_RL
1317      - ahdded RUNOFTEMP test to verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.seaice
1318      - changes verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/results/output.seaice.txt
1319    o pkg/atm_phys:
1320      - allows to add some damping on uVel,vVel (strength only function of k).
1321    o verification, ad-tests:
1322      - reduce length of the simulation for AD test: global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice,
1323        global_ocean_ebm and offline_exf_seaice.thsice.
1324    o verification/halfpipe_streamice:
1325      - found a bug in s/r pkg/streamice/streamice_advect_thickness which caused
1326        flux input boundary conditions to be ignored; a fix for this bug changed
1327        verification results for forward test.
1328      - add adjoint test.
1329    o pkg/ptracers:
1330      - allow to restart without SOM pickup (resetting SOM to zero).
1331    o pkg/gmredi:
1332      - New parameterisation for the calculation of K and (GM_PsiX,GM_PsiY) added.
1333      - It uses mixing length theory and suppression by steering level effects to
1334        calculate a diffusivity used in the Redi tensor (see Bates et al., submitted
1335        to JPO, for more details).
1336      - It also uses the diffusivity to calculate an eddy induced streamfunction
1337        based on a PV closure (rather than a buoyancy closure as in GM).
1338      - New files added to pkg/gmredi:
1339        gmredi_k3d.F calculates the diffusivity for the Redi tensor and the eddy
1340          induced overturning streamfunction (called from gmredi_calc_tensor)
1341        gmredi_calc_eigs.F calculates the eigenvalues and eigenvectors required
1342          for use in gmredi_k3d
1343        gmredi_calc_urms.F calculates the the rms eddy velocity used to calculate
1344          the eddy diffusivity
