4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o pkg/layers:
8      - fix interpolation of layers tracers in the presence of partial cells
9      - add lots of new functionality to compute water mass transformation
10        (enabled by CPP flag LAYERS_THERMODYNAMICS)
11      - add new calls from main code (diags_oceanic_surf_flux.F,
12        thermodynamics.F, impldiff.F) and gad to save the necessary fields
13        for layers_thermodynamics calculations
14    o pkg/ptracers:
15      - add capability of stepping a passive tracer forward
16        without advection by setting PTRACERS_advScheme to 0.
17    o pkg/diagnostics:
18      - add few (threads) _BARRIER around any update of "diag_pkgStatus".
19    o pkg/layers:
20      - shift potential density field "prho" by -1000 for density layer averaging so
21        that it corresponds to usual "sigma" definition (i.e., rho(p=const)-1000);
22        Note that density bin boundaries (layers_bounds in data.layers) have
23        to be set accordingly (i.e., shifted, in sigma scale).
24    o pkg/layers:
25      - fix snap-shot output of layer thickness @ V.pt and output of pot.density
26      - fix calculation of layer non-weighted velocity and layer probability
27      - add diagnostics for pot.density used for layer averaging
28    o pkg/seaice:
29      - seaice_calc_viscosity.F: change computation of deltaC**2 to ensure
30        positiveness, modify a few comments and improve variable names,
31      - the changed computation of deltaC affects most seaice-related
32        experiments at the truncation level.
33        seaice_itd.thermo is affected by far the most, with
34        only 7 digits of agreement remaining; update experiments.
35    
36    checkpoint65l (2015/05/04)
37    o pkg/shelfice:
38      - in shelfice_thermodynamics.F, if SHELFICEBoundaryLayer=.true., then set
39        factor drKp1 to zero where it is negative (ie. do not use
40        SHELFICEBoundaryLayer if hFacC>1)
41      - the same for factor drLoc in shelfice_forcing.F
42    o tools/genmake2: move FEXTRAFLAGS from FFLAGS to FOPTIM to avoid a problem
43        with modules in ptracers, when using testreport option "-small_f"
44    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F (in case of SEAICE_ITD)
45      - replace tmpscal1**1.36 by faster exp(1.36*log(tmpscal1))
46    o verification/testreport
47      - add new option -small_f
48        with this option testreport first makes the target small_f (*.f files)
49        before running make (all). This is useful for explicit inlining when
50        all sources need to be full available.
51    o pkg/exf/exf_interp.F:
52        remove previous changes related to reverse (decreasing) input grids latitude
53    
54    checkpoint65k (2015/04/01)
55    o pkg/ecco:
56        fix missing cosphi initialization; use eccoiter in place of optimcycle;
57        if autodiff is not compiled then use READ_REC_XY_RL/READ_REC_XYZ_RL
58        instead of active read/write
59    o pkg/ctrl:
60        if autodiff is not compiled then use READ_REC_XY_RL/READ_REC_XYZ_RL
61        instead of active read/write.
62    o pkg/autodiff: make autodiff_readparms.F and autodiff_whtapeio_sync.F
63        return if .NOT.useAUTODIFF
64    o pkg/seaice: add CPP brackets (cost function related).
65    o model/src:
66        add useAUTODIFF run time switch.
67    o pkg/exf/exf_interp.F:
68        add code to allow input grids with latitude starting in the north (i.e. when
69        j=1 corresponds to northern edge of field); modify global_with_exf to test
70        this feature.
71    o verification/testreport:
72      - replace "grep -A3" with POSIX conformal sed command, because there are
73        implementations of grep that cannot do contextual searches
74      - replace "cat -n" by "nl" (two occurrences), because not all implementations
75        of "cat" have the option "-n"
76    o model/src:
77        add new file gsw_teos10.F that contains 3 functions, more or less a copy
78        of the gsw_toolbox.f90 of the TEOS-10 fortran interface, that are used to
79        convert from conservative to potential temperature. For now they are not
80        called anywhere.
81    o pkg/ggl90: make "useIDEMIX" useful
82      - re-organize code in s/r ggl90_calc a little to move computations that
83        are different for idemix into separate loops (changes verification
84        experiment idemix at truncation level, 12 digits remain -> updated)
85      - requires 2 new 2D fields KappaM, verticalShear
86      - make hFacI and recip_hFacI local 3D variables that are passed to
87        s/r ggl90_idemix
88      - fix and improve some comments
89    
90    checkpoint65j (2015/02/25)
91    o pkg/openad
92      - synchronize seawater.F with version in model/src: replace routine
93        body of sw_temp by calling sw_ptmp and fix/add a few comments.
94    o pkg/mnc:
95      - change default value of pickup_read/write_mnc params to FALSE
96        (since few features are missing in reading MNC pickup files).
97    o model/src:
98      - change default (background) vertical diffusivity for salt to be the
99        temperature (background) vertical diffusivity.
100      - change background vertical diffusivity in vertical mixing pkgs ggl90,
101        kl10, my82 and pp81 from temperature diffusivity to salinity diffusivity.
102        This makes ptracers default diffusivity (that uses salt diffKr) more
103        consistent with vertical mixing schemes.
104    o verification/testreport:
105      - fix typo in "-pcls" option ;
106      - put temp files in /tmp (instead of in local dir)
107      - add option "-ncad" to use genmake2 new option "-nocat4ad"
108      - allow to use "-j" option (for multi-procs make) for AD, OAD and TLM.
109    o pkg/ggl90 (idemix code):
110      - apply few fixes ; add some missing "_d 0" ; update output of exp.
111        global_ocean.90x40x15.idemix
112    o OpenAD
113      - enable active file I/O and begin removal of work-around code
114        for OpenAD for handling control variables (memory vs. active files)
115      - new CPP options file OPENAD_OPTIONS.h
116      - revert to genarr2d gradient check for hs94.1x64x5
117      - (genarr3d tested by tutorial_global_oce_biogeo, tutorial_tracer_adjsens)
118      - gentim2d works for halfpipe_streamice but not yet hs94.1x64x5
119    o tools/genmake2:
120      - add option for an alternative Makefile (from Martin) where multiple
121        source files are sent to TAF (instead of all in one file).
122    o pkg/ggl90: add IDEMIX (Olbers and Eden, 2013)
123      - code provided by Carsten Eden as an extension of ggl90
124      - so far the code is turned on within ggl90 by setting a CPP-flag at
125        compile time; a runtime flag implementation is not yet complete
126      - tested in new verification experiment global_ocean.90x40x15.idemix
127    o verification:
128      - reduce length of the AD test run by half for experiments
129        global_ocean.cs32x15 (std + thsice) and isomip
130      - enable active file I/O for OpenAD, adjust verifications accordingly
131      - halfpipe_streamice: change gradient check from genarr2d to gentim2d
132    o verification/testreport:
133      - fix two non-POSIX sed statements so that there are no error messages
134        on Mac OS X
135      - replace hostname -s with hostname | sed 's/\..*$//'
136    o model/src/seawater.F:
137      - simplify SW_TEMP to just calling SW_PTMP with P and PR exchanged
138        (following the matlab code), which would have avoided the bug caught
139        by Matt (see below) in the first place
140    o pkg/shelfice:
141      - implement alternative discretisation of quadratic drag (selectBotDragQuadr)
142        and true distance in no-slip BC (bottomVisc_pCell) similar to bottom-drag.
143      - fix sign of friction tendency (no-slip BC) and fix u,v drag for thin
144        ice-shelf case (i.e., within surface level).
145      - add config summary in shelfice_check.F
146      - remove global variable recip_SHELFICElatentHeat and replace by a local
147        variable recip_latentHeat
148      - introduce diagnostics for friction velocity uStar (in case of
149        SHELFICEuseGammaFrict)
150      - change verification experiment isomip.htd:
151        + start from pickup (as input_ad at nIter0=8640)
152        + start from SHELFICEmassFile instead of SHELFICEloadAnomaly file
153        + test SHELFICEuseGammaFrict = .TRUE.
154        + test SHELFICEadvDiffHeatFlux = .TRUE.
155    o model/src:
156      - fix bug (Thanks to Matt) in function SW_TEMP (to convert Pot.Temp to
157        in-situ Temp) and in routine SW_TEMP (in pkg/openad);
158        update output of experiments global_with_exf.yearly and isomip (all 6).
159    o pkg/shelfice:
160      - change setting of kTopC to also be zero where there is no ice-shelf.
161      - zero out surface forcing arrays (for now, for T & S + EmPmR) where
162        ice-shelf is.
163      - first attempt to get RealFreshWaterFlux effects: for now, only without
164        SHELFICEboundaryLayer ; not consistent if using synchronous time-stepping.
165    o pkg/seaice: add the option to prescribe a fixed thickness PDF
166      for thermodynamic calculations
167      - because of divisions of the type 7/7 not exactly equal to 1, this change
168        affects results of some verification experiments by up to 4 digits:
169        global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice, lab_sea, lab_sea.fd, lab_sea.salt_plume,
170        seaice_obcs, seaice_obcs.seaiceSponge, seaice_obcs.tides
171        adjoint: lab_sea, lab_sea.noseaicedyn
172        -> updated
173    
174    checkpoint65i (2015/01/23)
175    o model/src:
176      - change units of frictionHeating field from W to W/m^2
177      - fix bug in frictional heating from stratospheric drag in
178        S/R ATM_PHYS_TENDENCY_APPLY_V
179      - with synchronous time-stepping: move resetting to zero of frictionHeating
180        field from load_fields_driver.F to thermodynamics.F ;
181      - add diagnostics for frictional heating.
182    o model/src & gmredi K3D:
183      - add frictionHeating field to pickup-files (for synchronous time-stepping)
184      - move ALLOW_EDDYPSI block out of DYNVARS.h and merge it into FFIELDS.h
185      - rename uMean,vMean --> uEulerMean,vEulerMean (+ change diagnostics name
186        and name in pickup file).
187      - fix arguments of few DIAGNOSTICS_FILL calls in gmredi_k3d.F
188    o model/src:
189      - move (from ini_forcing.F) initialisation of all arrays in header file
190        FFIELDS.h into new S/R ini_ffields.F ; this fix broken restart
191        (since Nov 2012) with option selectAddFluid=1.
192    o pkg/shelfice:
193      - change units (+ document) of newly added field "shelfIceMassDynTendency"
194      - upgrade from _RS to _RL shelficeMass & shelficeLoadAnomaly arrays.
195    o pkg/obcs: re-organize obcs_calc_stevens.F to prepare for passive tracers
196    o pkg/seaice: two new runtime parameters:
197      - SEAICE_cStar replaces the hard wired "20" in the strength formulation,
198        long overdue
199      - SEAICE_tensilFac: preparation for Koenig-Beatty+Holland (2012)
200        parameterization of tensil stress for fast ice (does not do anything yet)
201    o pkg/seaice/seaice_check.F: left over from restricted addtive Schwarz method
202        for LSR: move checking overlaps out of JFNK-if-block
203    o pkg/atm_phys:
204      - move copy of grid and dynamical fields out of atm_phys_driver.F into
205        new S/R ATM_PHYS_DYN2PHYS.
206      - fix level height for Linear Free-Surf case (to be consistent with
207        fixed-in-time pressure levels).
208    o pkg/mom_common (bottomdrag):
209      - average bottomDragFld (ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG_CONTROL) from grid-cell center
210        to correct location (U & V point) in S/R MOM_U/V_BOTTOMDRAG;
211        update output (adm & tlm) of experiment global_ocean.90x40x15.bottomdrag.
212    o pkg/shelfice (u/v_drag):
213      - add one argument (the other velocity component) to S/R SHELFICE_U/V_DRAG;
214      - use SHELFICEDragLinear & SHELFICEDragQuadratic in shelfice_v_drag.F
215        (now similar to shelfice_u_drag.F)
216      - remove condition on bottomDragTerms when calling SHELFICE_U/V_DRAG
217        from mom_vecinv.F (similar to mom_fluxform calls).
218    o pkg/mom_common (bottomdrag):
219      - add one argument (the other velocity component) to S/R MOM_U/V_BOTTOMDRAG;
220      - add options for alternative discretisation of velocity norm in quadratic
221        bottom drag: averaging of grid-cell-center KE to U.point and V.point
222        (selectBotDragQuadr=0, original code) can produce noisy patterns; this
223        improves when averaging only the other component (e.g. vVel for U bottom
224        drag) using wet-point method (selectBotDragQuadr=2) or not (=1).
225      - add options (bottomVisc_pCell) to account for partial-cell in bottom
226        friction (no-slip BC) thus getting the true distance from the bottom;
227        off by default since this also reduces model stability (explicit bottom
228        friction). Changes produce different machine truncation with linear-drag
229        + no-slip BC: update output of experiments exp4.stevens (10 digits) and
230        front_relax (bvp & mxl, 10 & 11 digits).
231    o model/src & mom pkgs:
232      - add one more level to vertical viscosity local arrays (Nr+1, previously Nr)
233        since no-slip bottom BC uses viscosity @ k+1 to update velocity @ level k
234      - for now and until vertical mixing scheme are updated to fill up level Nr+1,
235        just copy level Nr value to level Nr+1.
236    o doc:
237      - add notes form Abhisek Chakraborty on how to close Heat & Salt budgets.
238    o pkg/streamice:
239      - shelfice_init_varia.F, shelfice_init_fixed.F, shelfice_readparms.F,
240        SHELFICE.h: move array shelficemass to init_varia, initialise
241        from array shelficemassinit, which is set in init_fixed and
242        has option to be set from file; introduce array
243        shelficeMassDynTend array, set thru file in init_fixed
244      - NEW FILE: shelfice_step_icemass.F: update shelficemass from either
245        shelfIceFreshWaterFlux and shelficeMassDynTend or H_streamice in
246        pkg/streamice
247      - shelfice_thermodynamics.F: call shelfice_step_icemass if
248        SHELFICEMassStepping = .true.
249      - shelfice_ad_diff.list: add new subroutine shelfice_step_icemass.f
250    
251    checkpoint65h (2014/12/17)
252    o verification/global_ocean.90x40x15, global_ocean_ebm:
253      - update to generic controls.
254    o pkg/ctrl:
255      - ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F: test for igen>0
256      - ctrl_init_variables.F: add call to CTRL_MAP_INI_GENTIM2D.
257      - move gentim2d part of ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F to
258        new separate routine : ctrl_map_ini_gentim2d.F
259      - ctrl_cost_driver.F,ctrl_init.F ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F:
260        add time variable weights and cyclic controls (time mean,
261        seasonal cycle, etc) capabilities to gentim2d
262    o pkg/ecco:
263      - move reading of error, conversion to weights from
264        ecco_cost_init_fixed.F to ecco_toolbox.F (ecco_readwei)
265    o global_oce_llc90, cs32:
266      - activte sbo.
267      - CTRL_SIZE.h : add maxCtrlProc.
268      - activate the new genctrl capabilities.
269      - update following reorganization of global_oce_input_fields.tar.gz  
270    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_ad_diff.list:
271      - add missing ctrl_init_rec.f
272    o tools/OAD_support/keepOriginal:
273      - add ctrl_init_rec.F
274    o model/src/the_main_loop.F, pkg/ctrl/ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F:
275      - avoid recomputations of xx_gentim2d_dummy.
276    o momentum diagnostics:
277      - move filling of diagnostics Um_Diss & Vm_Diss from mom_fluxform.F and
278        mom_vecinv.F to timestep.F (to include Smag-3D contribution).
279    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F:
280      - fix computation of BU/BV, make sure they are non-zero, only necessary
281        for cubed sphere exchanges and SEAICE_OLx/y>0.
282        This makes calling s/r fill_cs_corner_rl obsolete (removed).
283    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.seaice
284      - add test for strong implicit coupling and restricted addtive Schwarz
285        methods for LSR
286      - update results/output.seaice.txt
287    o verification/tutorial_global_oce_biogeo:
288      - AD & OAD set-up: switch off ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX (like in fwd set-up)
289        and set PTRACERS_EvPrRn(1,2) to zero (for DIC & ALK);
290        update output_adm,_oadm,_tlm.txt
291    o pkg/dic:
292      - change default to "#undef ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX" in DIC_OPTIONS.h
293      - add a stop when ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX is defined and PTRACERS_EvPrRn
294        for tracer 1 & 2 is set (to avoid double counting of dilution effect).
295    o verification/tutorial_global_oce_biogeo:
296      - AD & OAD set-up: do not set PTRACERS_EvPrRn for tracer 1 & 2 since
297        dilution is already added by pkg/dic ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX ;
298        update output_adm,_oadm,_tlm.txt
299    o eesupp/src:
300      - add fill_cs_corner_rl.F (_RL-copy of fill_cs_corner_rs.F)
301        and call it in seaice_lsr when using nonzero SEAICE_OLx/y
302    o pkg/seaice: introduce strongly implicit coupling, intended for stabilizing
303      LSR (following Hutchings et al. 2004)
304      - introduce zetaZ as a global variable (requires adjustments in
305        seaice_evp.F and seaice_jfnk.F) and compute analoguously to etaZ
306        in seaice_calc_viscosities.F
307      - new flag SEAICEuseStrImpCpl (default off)
308      - add new terms zetaZ*du/dy and zetaZ*dv/dx on both sides of the
309        momentum equations
310      - JFNK-solver (preconditioner) adjusted to allow using this method
311        (where it does not have any positive effect)
312    o pkg/seaice
313      - add overlap for restrictive additive Schwartz method also to LSR, but
314        turn it off by default (because it only seems to work for non-cubed
315        sphere/llc topologies)
316    o pkg/autodiff
317      - add extra exchanges in addummy_in_steppging also for mnc output
318    o pkg/seaice:
319      - add extra exchanges before dumping adjoint fields in seaice_ad_dump.F
320        to avoid stripes in the adjoint output (similar to addummy_in_stepping.F)
321    o pkg/obcs:
322      - add option to specify domain-connected piece Id along OB though files
323        (for now, only used to diagnose PhiVel; default =1 -> global correction)
324      - modify obcs_diag_balance.F to process each connected-part separately;
325        exclude OB where Id = 0 but keep the full divergence there (-> constant
326        Psi along this portion of OB and all inflow derived from grad(Phi))
327      - add example of OB-conect files in verification/so_box_biogeo/input.
328    o pkg/diagnostics:
329      - improve treatment of Open-Boundaries in Velocity-Potential calculation:
330      a) use non zero matrix element across OB and solve for Phi 1 grid point
331         outside OB (i.e, where tracer OBCS are applied).
332      b) global imbalance of inFlow/outFlow across OB: instead of modifying
333         velocity across OB, spread it uniformly along the OB in the RHS.
334    
335    checkpoint65g (2014/11/19)
336    o pkg/diagnostcis:
337      - add preconditioner off-diagonal factor (diagCG_pcOffDFac) as run-time param
338    o pkg/my82,pp81,kl10:
339      - fix ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR implementation (previously had no effect): use 3-D
340        field diffKr as background diffusivity to set minimum diffusivity value.
341    o pkg/seaice:
342      - add new parameter SEAICEuseEVPrev (for revisited EVP by
343        Bouillon et al 2013)
344      - add SEAICE_evpAlpha/Beta to namelist
345      - modify seaice_evp code to able to use SEAICEuseEVPrev. These changes
346        involve trivial re-ordering of divisions/multiplications that should not
347        have any effects, but ... they do change the results of lab_sea.hb87 so
348        that only 2 digits of agreement remain, in line with the general
349        instability/fragility of the evp-code. For now, I do not care and just
350        update the verification experiment
351    o pkg/ctrl : add generic pre-processing (xx_genarr2d_preproc etc)
352      - remove xx_genarr2d_numsmooth etc
353      - use xx_genarr2d_preproc etc instead
354      - carry out smooth_correl2D at initialization stage rather than during
355        time stepping.
356      - get smoothOpNb from xx_gentim2d_preproc
357    o global_oce_cs32 :
358      - add test of generic ecco capabilities.
359    o pkg/exf/exf_getsurfacefluxes.F :
360      - add to tmpUE/tmpVN rather than re-initializing them (conventional behavior).
361    o pkg/ctrl,ecco :
362      - omit un-necessary arguments to ctrl_cost_gen.F unless ECCO_CTRL_DEPRECATED
363        is defined.
364    o pkg/seaice: add diagnostics for Delta (deformation parameter)
365    o model/src:
366      - when ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR is defined, add a Warning if any of the vertical
367        diffusivity (background) is specified but ignored.
368    o verification:
369      - in testreport, convert hostname to lower case for default output dir name
370    o model, pkg : add useCTRL, useECCO parameters (on/off run time switch).
371    o pkg/dic: add modifications from Hajoon:
372      - add iron sedimentation flux function of the flux of PO4 out of bottom layer
373      - light attenuation: add self-shading effect by climatological Chlorophyll
374        (read from file).
375    o pkg/seaice/seaice_preconditioner.F : fix cpp flags, so that code also
376        compiles when SEAICE_ALLOW_DYNAMICS is undefined
377    o global_oce_llc90,cs32 : ecco_v4 verification exps now use separate
378        AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, CTRL_OPTIONS.h, ECCO_OPTIONS.h rather than
379        ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h (i.e. replacing the deprecated, circumvoluted,
380        approach where CPP_OPTIONS.h includes an omnipotent
381        ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h that superseeds pkgs '_OPTIONS.h').
382    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F : include GMREDI_OPTIONS.h where
383        ALLOW_3D_KAPGM, ALLOW_3D_KAPREDI (to be added later) belong.
384    o pkg/seaice/SEAICE_SIZE.h : replace ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC with ALLOW_AUTODIFF
385        to avoid needing AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h anytime SEAICE_SIZE.h is included
386        (it seems that THSICE_SIZE.h, PTRACERS_SIZE.h have the same issue...)
387    o model/src, pkg/smooth, profiles, salt_plume, seaice, exf, ecco, ctrl :
388      add ECCO_OPTIONS.h, AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, CTRL_OPTIONS.h when needed
389      - ECCO_OPTIONS.h is needed when including ecco_cost.h, ecco.h
390      - AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h is needed when including tamc.h, tamc_keys.h
391      - CTRL_OPTIONS.h is needed when including ctrl.h, optim.h, etc
392    o pkg/ctrl,ecco,exf :
393      - remove variables associated with NON-generic costs,
394        unless ECCO_CTRL_DEPRECATED is defined.
395      - remove NON-generic NON-obcs controls,
396        unless ECCO_CTRL_DEPRECATED is defined.
397    o pkg/ctrl : added ctrl_local_params.h
398    o pkg/ecco : added ecco_local_params.h
399    o verification : added ECCO_CTRL_DEPRECATED to most as and oad
400        experiments, which will progressively be removed once the
401        experiments are revised to use only generic controls/costs.
402    
403    checkpoint65f (2014/10/13)
404    o pkg/ctrl, ecco, seaice : minor changes in headers
405    o global_oce_llc90,cs32 : ecco_v4 verification exps now test generic
406        cost function and control capabilities added since checkpoint65c.
407    o pkg/ctrl: regroup all obcs ctrl variables in CTRL_OBCS.h.
408    o pkg/ecco: increase modularity and improve logic
409      - ecco_toolbox.F (new) : basic operations that are often used,
410        including ecco_zero, ecco_cp, ecco_cprsrl, ecco_diffmsk,
411        ecco_addcost, ecco_add, ecco_div, ecco_readbar.
412      - cost_gencal.F (new) : determine filnames and records.
413      - cost_genread.F, cost_generic.F : condense code using ecco_toolbox.
414      - cost_generic.F : use spzeroloc rather than hard-coded -9999,
415        and exploit the above functions leading to more compact code.
416      - cost_genread.F : rm un-necessary arguments, re-arrange args order.
417      - ecco_check.F, ecco_readparms.F : bring logic up to date (using_tpj,
418        using_ers, using_gfo, using_mdt is now only defined within gencost)
419    o pkg/ecco: extend generic cost capabilities
420      - pkg/ecco : added 3D gencost (ALLOW_GENCOST3D), added gencost
421        capabilities via gencost_preproc (+ _c,_i,_r related params),
422        gencost_posproc (+ _c,_i,_r related params), gencost_nrecperiod,
423        gencost_outputlevel arguments to cost_generic
424      - pkg/ecco/cost_genread.F (new) : interface between cost_generic
425        and active_read, making room for gencost_preproc to take effect.
426        Added preproc code ('climmon') to replace GENERIC_BAR_MONTH.
427      - pkg/ecco/cost_generic.F :
428        compute and store misfit maks*(model-data) in localdif that is
429        then used in cost and for output, output misfit if outlev.GT.0
430      - pkg/ecco/cost_averagesfields.F : depend on gencost_barskip
431        rather gencost_barfile for deciding whether to write barfile
432      - pkg/ecco/ecco_cost_driver.F : extract call to cost_profiles from cost_hyd
433      - pkg/ecco/ecco_cost_init_fixed.F : extract gencost weights from
434        ecco_cost_weights, re-activate ecco_summary, determine gencost_barskip
435      - pkg/ecco/ecco_summary.F : report gencost variables
436      - pkg/ecco/cost_gencost_customize.F : treat case of scatterometer costs
437    o pkg/sea/SEAICE_OPTIONS.h : add ALLOW_COST_ICE, ALLOW_SEAICE_COST_SMR_AREA
438    o pkg/ecco: internal re-organization
439      - resolve un-necessary dependancies within pkg/ecco and to pkg/ctrl
440        (rm includes of optim.h and ctrl.h, replace optimcycle with eccoiter,
441        mv relevant variables definition from ecco_cost.h to ecco.h,
442        make sure gencost routines only include ecco.h)
443      - throughout : add missing CCP switches, rm unused variables,
444        and rm un-necessary CPP switches
445      - throughout gencost routines : replace modelstartdate with
446        gencost_startdate when needed
447      - cost_bp_read.F : use arguments, instead of common blocs
448        so that it can be used also by (new) cost_gencost_bpv4.F
449      - ecco_init_varia.F : initialize RHOsumGlob_0, VOLsumGlob_0
450      - ecco_phys.F : compute etanFull
451      - ecco_readparms.F : rename using_topex as using_tpj, add
452        bpv4-grace to gencost list, initialize added parameters
453      - ecco_summary.F : include SIZE.h needed for augmented ecco.h
454    
455    checkpoint65e (2014/09/28)
456    o pkg/obcs:
457      - replaced the just-added CPP options with run-time variables
458        (see pkg/obcs/OBCS_PARAMS.h for details)
459    o pkg/obcs:
460      - add additional CPP options for sponge boundary layers
461        (see pkg/obcs/OBCS_OPTIONS.h for details)
462    o pkg/atm_phys:
463      - implement simple (obliquity only, assuming circular planet orbit)
464        seasonal cycle for incoming insolation ; used when run-time parameter
465        "select_incSW" is set to 1 ; by default (=0), uses old unchanged formula.
466    o pkg/exf, pkg/ecco, pkg/ctrl:
467      - add ctrlUseGen and .NOT.ctrlUseGen exclusive brackets
468      - activate gentim2d for xx_atemp,xx_aqh,xx_swdown,xx_lwdown,xx_precip
469      - implement gentim2d for xx_tauu, xx_tauv
470    o pkg/ctrl, pkg/ecco :
471      - fix and complement the generic controls implementation
472    o pkg/exf/exf_getclim.F, exf_getffields.F, exf_getsurfacefluxes.F,
473        pkg/shelfice/shelfice_thermodynamics.F,
474        verification/hs94.1x64x5/code_ad/ctrl_map_gentim2d.F,
475        verification/hs94.1x64x5/code_oad/ctrl_map_gentim2d.F :
476      - add weight in CTRL_GET_GEN calls
477    o pkg/ctrl :
478      - ctrl_get_gen.F : add weight as input parameter, and apply
479        it directly rather than using smooth_correl2Dw (to be retired).
480      - ctrl_map_gentim2d.F : add wgentim2d in CTRL_GET_GEN call
481    o pkg/ctrl :
482      - introduce run time switch ctrlUseGen (in ctrl.h, ctrl_check.F,
483        ctrl_init_variables.F, ctrl_readparms.F, ctrl_summary.F)
484      - re-activate ctrl_summary (call in ctrl_init.F)
485    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_cost_gen.F :
486      - fix CCP brackets, remove un-necessary myiter, mytime
487    o pkg/ecco, pkg/ctrl :

489      - remove cost_forcing_gen.F (now pkg/ctrl/ctrl_cost_gen2d.F)
490      - add ctrl_cost_driver.F (replaces pkg/ecco/cost_genctrl.F)
491      - add ctrl_cost_gen2d.F (replaces pkg/ecco/cost_forcing_gen.F)
492    
493    checkpoint65d (2014/09/15)
494    o pkg/ctrl/CTRL_GENARR.h, ctrl_readparms.F :
495      - add xx_genarr2d_bounds,xx_genarr3d_bounds,
496        xx_genarr2d_numsmooth, xx_genarr3d_numsmooth
497    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F :
498      - remove compilation failure
499      - replace hard coded example
500      - use ctrl_map_ini_gen2D, 3D
501    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_pack.F, ctrl_unpack.F :
502      - on/off switch based upon xx_genarr2d_weight,3d
503    o src/packages_init_variables.F :
504      - regroup pkg/estimation calls
505      - remove CTRL_MAP_INI, CTRL_MAP_INI_ECCO
506        (moved to ctrl_init_variables)
507    o cost/cost_init_varia.F :
508      - remove ecco_cost_init_varia
509        (moved to ecco_init_varia)

512      - add CTRL_MAP_INI_GENARR, SEAICE_CTRL_MAP_INI
513    o ctrl/ctrl_map_ini.F :
514      - remove ctrl_map_ini_genarr, seaice_ctrl_map_ini
515        (moved to ctrl_init_variables)
516    o ctrl/ctrl_map_ini_ecco.F :
517      - remove ECCO_PHYS (mv to ecco_init_varia)
518      - remove seaice_ctrl_map_ini (mv to ctrl_init_variables)
519    o ecco/ecco_ad_diff.list :
520      - add ecco_init_varia.f
521    o ecco/ecco_init_varia.F
522      - new routine
523    o pkg/streamice:
524      - move call to STREAMICE_INITIALIZE_PETSC from the_model_main.F
525        to streamice_init_fixed.F ; fix setting of STREAMICEisOn.
526      - from model/src, only call pkg/streamice routines if useStreamIce is TRUE.
527    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
528      - fix bug causing negatives in GAD_SMOLARKIEWICZ_HACK, introduced 8/8/2014.
529    o pkg/exf:
530      - exf_getffields.F : add xxg_atemp, xxg_aqh, xxg_swdown, xxg_lwdown,
531         xxg_precip capability
532      - exf_wind.F : no need for ALLOW_WSPEED_CONTROL cpp switch
533    o pkg/ctrl:
534      - ctrl_pack.F, ctrl_unpack.F : omit (un)packing of undefined xx_gentim2d
535    o model/src/load_fields_driver.F :
536      - move call to CTRL_MAP_GENTIM2D ahead of BULKF_FIELDS_LOAD, EXF_GETFORCING
537        so xx_gentim2d can be applied to e.g. exf fields in a timely manner.
538    o OpenAD verification experiments:
539      - Include explicitly AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, COST_OPTIONS.h, and CTRL_OPTIONS.h
540        in src files (to enable to skip the ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h);
541        for now, only in pkgs used in OpenAD verification experiments.
542      - Change all except one (halfpipe_streamice) OpenAD experiments to use pkg
543        specific option file (AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, COST_OPTIONS.h & CTRL_OPTIONS.h)
544        instead of using ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h (with all relevant options in it).
545        This applies to both TAF (*/code_ad/) and OpenAD (*/code_oad/) tests.
546    o OpenAD verification tests:
547      - finish removing ALLOW_AUTODIFF_OPENAD (replaced by ALLOW_OPENAD);
548      - finish replacing ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC by ALLOW_AUTODIFF (except for
549        tape/storage which are specific to TAF/TAMC) in pkgs used in OpenAD exp.
550      - leave ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC undef in OpenAD verification tests (*/code_oad/)
551        and remove local copy of "tamc.h" (needed only if ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC).
552    o model/src & generic_advdiff:
553      - change hard-coded loop-range in S/R APPLY_FORCING_T/S to set T & S
554        forcing over 0:sNx+1, 0:sNy=1 (instead of just 1:sNx,1:sNy): Model
555        dynamics requires valid tracer forcing only over tile interior but, for
556        some diagnostics, may need to extend it over 1 point in tile halo region.
557      - in gad_calc_rhs.F, update calls to gmredi_x/ytransport to get valid
558        tendency over i,j_Min,Max range. This allows to simplfy i,j_Min,Max
559        setting in temp/salt/ptracer_integrate.F
560    o pkg/dic:
561      - multiply tracer tendencies by maskInC (if ussing OBCS) before updating
562        gchem tracers: this allows to skip the 2nd call to OBCS_APPLY_PTRACER
563        in gchem_forcing_sep.F
564    o pkg/autodiff & obcs:
565      - add storage of current OB values for U & V (was already done for T & S).
566    
567    checkpoint65c (2014/08/30)
568    o pkg/dic:
569      - take out of dic_atmos.F the initialisation part (corresponding to istate=0)
570        and move it to new S/R DIC_INI_ATMOS ; also simplify the dependencies for
571        AD compilers (but still a Pb with multi-threading and Ajoint dependencies).
572    o verification:
573      - new experiment testing OBCS and DIC pkgs, using params & output from
574        tutorial_global_oce_biogeo but limited to a sub-domain around Drake
575        passage: take OBCS from the last year of a 2 yrs simulation and initial
576        conditions from t=1.yr while keeping the same forcing.
577    o model/src:
578      - when allowFreezing=T, only reset below freezing initial Temp to Tfreezing
579        (at any k) if checkIniTemp is not set to FALSE (default checkIniTemp=T).
580    o pkg/diagnostics (Stats-Diags):
581      - re-write S/R DIAGSTATS_CALC (more similar to TARGET_NEC_SX part) to:
582        a) refine region where stats are computed, excluding where arrhFac=0 ;
583        b) fix missing interior mask (use with OBCS) in 3-D fields statistics;
584        c) extend regional stats over the region edges (for U or V pt location).
585    o pkg/gchem:
586      - add a (2nd) call to OBCS_APPLY_PTRACER in gchem_forcing_sep.F (needed since
587        pkg/dic is currently changing/updating ptracers values beyond the OB).
588    o verification (hs94):
589      - convert Held & Suarez external_forcing.F (from hs94.cs, with Sigma-coords
590        bits) to apply_forcing.F and undef USE_OLD_EXTERNAL_FORCING in experiments
591        hs94.cs-32x32x5 and tutorial_held_suarez_cs ; also use the same version of
592        apply_forcing.F in 2D hs94 (fwd, ad & oad) but keep LatLon hs94 unchanged.
593    o pkg/ptracers:
594      - implement Adams-Bashforth on pTracers (instead of on tracer tendency),
595        switched on by setting PTRACERS_doAB_onGpTr=F (default set to doAB_onGtGs)
596      - change exp4 secondary test (input.nlfs) to test AB on T & S & pTracer
597        with AB-2 code (so that it get tested).
598    o model/src:
599      - allow to apply Adams-Bashforth on Temp & Salt (instead of on gT,gS)
600        with AB-2 code (previously only available with AB-3 code).
601        Also move the code (call to ADAMS_BASHFORTH S/R) form thermodynamics.F
602        to temp/salt_integrate.F (since the 2nd part of gt/sNm1 update is done
603        there, by calling CYCLE_AB_TRACER).
604    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
605      - change Tracer argument (drop bi,bj indices) in S/R GAD_CALC_RHS,
606        GAD_C2_ADV_R, GAD_U3_ADV_R, GAD_C4_ADV_R, GAD_DIFF_R, GAD_BIHARM_R
607        + also in GMREDI_X/Y/RTRANSPORT ; and update corresponding calls in
608        S/R temp/salt/ptracers_integrate.F
609    o model/src & pkg/ptracers:
610      - remove common block variables gT,gS (in DYNVARS.h), except when
611         USE_OLD_EXTERNAL_FORCING is defined; update TAF storage accordingly.
612      - remove common block variable gPtr.
613    o model/src & pkgs:
614      - change gTracer (and/or tracer) argument (drop bi,bj indices) in S/R
615         ADAMS_BASHFORTH(2&3), CYCLE_(AB_)TRACER, FREESURF_RESCALE_G,
616         IMPLDIFF, SOLVE_TRIDIAGONAL & _PENTADIAGONAL, GAD_SOM_ADVECT,
617         GAD_ADVECTION, GAD_CALC_RHS, GAD_IMPLICIT_R, TIMEAVE_CUMUL_DIF_1T
618      + change accordingly all calling S/R.
619      - use local temperature/salinity/ptracer tendency array (without bi,bj)
620        in S/R temp/salt/ptracers_integrate.F
621    o pkg/seaice:
622      - move computation of stress contributions to rhsU/V in s/r seaice_lsr
623        to separate s/r seaice_lsr_rhsu/v in order to be able to re-use code
624      - make u/vIceC local variables if SEAICE_CGRID is defined only to be used
625        in seaice_lsr
626      - seaice_lsr.F: make local 4D arrays UXX, VYY, etc 2D
627        in s/r seaice_lsr_calc_coeffs
628    o pkg/mdsio:
629      - in MDS_READ/WRITE_FIELD, stop if file-name (+prefix) is too long
630        (e.g., > MAX_LEN_MBUF -90 ) or, in INI_MODEL_IO, if mdsioLocalDir is
631        too long (e.g., > MAX_LEN_FNAM/2 )
632    
633    checkpoint65b (2014/08/12)
634    o pkg/matrix:
635      - pass, as argument, updated tracer field to S/R MATRIX_STORE_TENDENCY_EXP
636    o model/src:
637      - fix initialisation of geothermalFile; compile geothermal-flux code in
638        natl_box verification experiment.
639    o model/src & pkg/down_slope:
640      - push the k loop inside S/R TIMESTEP_TRACER (now called outside the k loop).
641      - in dwnslp_apply.F, update tracer tendency instead of the future tracer
642        field and call S/R DWNSLP_APPLY before TIMESTEP_TRACER; this affects
643        results at machine truncation level: update output of experiments
644        global_ocean.90x40x15.dwnslp (FWD) and lab_sea.noseaicedyn (AD).
645    o pkg/diagnostics (Stats-Diags):
646      - do not cumulate the full volume when DIAGNOSTICS_FILL is
647        called with bibjFlg < 0 (no increment of the counter for 2D/3D diag);
648        This fix the mean statistics when DIAGNOSTICS_FILL is called multiple
649        times (but Min,Max and StD are still wrong).
650    o model/src:
651      - add geothermal flux forcing: read in ini_forcing.F as time-constant
652        field "geothermalFlux" applied in S/R APPLY_FORCING_T (apply_forcing.F)
653    o model/src:
654      - move CYCLE_TRACER calls from tracers_correction_step.F to temp/salt/ptracer
655        _integrate.F so that, when leaving S/R THERMODYANMICS, theta,salt and pTrac
656        arrays are already updated while adjustments (filters, conv.adjustment) are
657        still applied later, in S/R TRACERS_CORRECTION_STEP.
658    o model/src:
659      - store in common bloc array "rhoInSitu" the virtual potential temperature
660        anomaly that is used to compute geopotential: this make the atmos code
661        more similar to ocean code which already uses rhoInSitu in calc_phi_hyd.F
662    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F
663      - rename integer variable ilcall to ipass (that's what it is called
664        in the residual diagnostics
665      - change time stepping for NPSEUDOTIMESTEP > 2 (does not change the
666        default) for improved non-linear convergence of the first few steps
667      - adjust a few comments and add new ones to explain some of the store
668        directives
669    o pkg/generic_advdiff (& ptracers):
670      - re-work the code to check for valid advection scheme and for minimum
671        size of overlap (now stored in local common bloc in gad_advscheme.F)
672    o pkg/seaice: another attempt to make the adjoint work for sea ice dynamics
673      - re-initialize more variables in seaice_lsr: u/vIceC, u/vIceNm1
674      - add an auxilliary variable "bet" and fix store directives and keys in
675        seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v, this seems to do the trick (i.e. more or
676        less exact gradients in my tests); but there are still
677        recomputation warning (although gradients are sort of OK), when
678        SEAICE_LSR_VECTORIZE is not defined, so this flag and
679        SEAICE_LSR_VECTORIZE_ZEBRA are recommended for efficiency.
680      - update verification experiments lab_sea.
681      - change some comments in S/R seaice_calc_viscosities
682    o model/src:
683      - if staggerTimeStep=T, always apply exchange to velocity field in
684        do_stagger_fields_exchanges.F instead of in do_fields_blocking_exchanges.F
685        (independent of using multi-dim advection or not); no effect on FWD run
686        but affects AD results (at machine truncation level): update output of
687        experiment 1D_ocean_ice_column (ad: 12 digits), hs94.1x64x5 (ad,oad: 13.d)
688        and isomip (oad: 12.d).
689    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
690      - stop if doAB_onGtGs is set to FALSE but ignored
691      - refine warning related to stability of tracer time-stepping
692        regarding internal wave dynamics.
693      - setting of AdamsBashforth_T,S when doAB_onGtGs=F: remove condition
694        on staggerTimeStep & implicitIntGravWave (will now get a warning
695        if potentially unstable).
696    o pkg/kl10:
697      - add new pkg "kl10" for mixing due to internal wave breaking, from
698        http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1463500310000144
699        (contribution from Jody Klymak), tested in verification experiment
700        verification/internal_wave/input.kl10/
701    o isomip experiment:
702      - test pkg/shelfice with Non-Lin Free-Surf in one of the FWD set-up
703        (input.htd) and update the output.
704    o cd_code experiments:
705      - use default cd_code options (#undef CD_CODE_NO_AB_MOMENTUM &
706        #undef CD_CODE_NO_AB_CORIOLIS) in experiments: cfc_example (fwd)
707        global_ocean.90x40x15 (ad & oad) and OpenAD (ad & oad) and
708        update the corresponding output.
709    o pkg/seaice:
710      - reduce the number of include files and store directives in
711        S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
712      - change the order of loops in one case in S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagv
713        (only for SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA defined), which allows me to
714        get rid off one store directive (a TAF bug?)
715      - add one more instance of ifdef SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA in
716        S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagv to change the loop range for consistency
717      - remove ilcall, m from parameter list of S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
718      - fix a bug that affects the JFNK solver: replace sNx/y by i/jMax in
719        S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v (requires update of
720        offline_exf_seaice/input.dyn_jfnk)
721    
722    checkpoint65a (2014/07/27)
723    o model/src:
724      - Non-Lin Free-Surf in p/z coords: allows hFacW,S to be larger than
725        surrounding hFacC=1 @ edge of a step with different kSurfC on either side
726        (topo in p-coords, ice-shelf in z-coords); update output of experiments
727        tutorial_global_oce_in_p and isomip (both AD and OpenAD output).
728    o model/src:
729      - collect momentum forcing tendency into local 2-D array (passed as argument
730        to apply_forcing S/R); this simplifies mom. Forcing diagnostics and CD_CODE
731        parts in timestep.F (without CD_CODE_NO_AB_MOMENTUM defined = the default);
732        affects results at machine truncation level (e.g., if using OBCS_SPONGE).
733      - collect T & S forcing tendency into local 2-D array (passed as argument to
734        apply_forcing S/R); add 3-D diagnostics for temp & salt forcing tendency.
735        affects results at machine truncation level (e.g., ocean: if using
736        SHORTWAVE_HEATING ; atmos: if using FrictionHeating or (atm_Rq<>0) moist
737        correction due to vertical advection).
738      - update output of experiments: fizhi-cs-32x32x40 (13 digits),
739        global_ocean.cs32x15 (fwd: icedyn, seaice, thsice, all 3 @ 11d; adm & tml:
740        seaice_dynmix & thsice, fwd grd @ 3 & 8), hs94.1x64x5 (ad grd @ 13),
741        obcs_ctrl (ad & fwd grd @ 12 & 7).
742    o pkg/ptracers & diagnostics:
743      - use ptracers (short) name (instead of long one) to make ptracers diagnostics
744        title (to avoid some unexpected truncation); sort out ptracers diags units.
745      - collect ptracer forcing tendency into local 2-D array (passed as argument
746        to apply_forcing S/R); add 3-D diagnostics for ptracers forcing tendency.
747    
748    checkpoint65 (2014/07/18)
749    o pkg/fizhi:
750      - add parenthesis around fizhi tendencies in fizhi_tendency_apply.F: this
751        affects results at machine truncation level. Update output of experiments
752        fizhi-cs-32x32x40 (12 digits for cg2d) & fizhi-cs-aqualev20 (13 digits).
753    o pkg/seaice: more clean up
754      - rename TAF common block tapes to be more consistent and remove
755        unnecessary duplicates
756      - add store directives to remove more recomputations, but use smaller
757        tapes (and adjust keys) when SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER is undefined.
758        The idea behind this flag is to reduce the memory footprint when the
759        adjoint of the LSR is not required. As of now, defining the flag
760        SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER increases 4 common block tapes for 2D field by
761        a factor of SOLV_MAX_FIXED (=500 by default in SEAICE_SIZE.h).
762        For experiment offline_exf_seaice, this means on a linux box with gfortran
763        nearly a factor of 10 (but keep in mind there is mostly seaice code in
764        this experiment):
765        > size mitgcmuv_ad
766        text    data        bss     dec        hex
767        5100659 1216  220458952  225560827  d71c8fb
768        5339425 1200 1868783272 1874123897 6fb4dc79 (SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER)
769        but only a moderate increase of 36% for global_ocean.cs32x15:
770        text    data        bss     dec        hex
771        6695027 1648 1014578664 1021275339 3cdf6ccb
772        6695203 1648 1382505320 1389202171 52cd8afb (SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER)
773      - note: there are still recomputations in global_ocean.cs32x15 and
774        offline_exf_seaice and the gradient agreement changes (gets a
775        little worse) for global_ocean.cs32x15 (-> update output_adm.seaice.txt)
776      - in general, the AD gradients still are wrong
777    o OpenAD
778      - clean up code_oad/ directories somewhat by moving files
779        dontCompile, dontTransform, keepOriginal to OAD_support/
780    o model/src:
781      - using MOM fluxform and Non-Lin Free-Surf with momDissip_In_AB=F
782        (not currently tested): add dissipation terms before NLFS rescaling of
783        tendencies (previously done after).
784    o pkg/diagnostics:
785      - write stats-diags in ascii file with more digits (same as in monitor).
786    o pkg/down_slope:
787      - drop the bi,bj dimension of argument recip_hFac in S/R DWNSLP_APPLY; with
788        NLFS (not tested), use new recip_hFac value in order to conserve tracer.
789    o model/src:
790      - new file "apply_forcing.F" containing all the code previously in
791        external_forcing.F, but with new argument list: pass, as new argument,
792        the current level tendency array to update (instead of a direct update
793        of the common bloc array). Change the corresponding calls.
794      - add CPP option USE_OLD_EXTERNAL_FORCING (default is undef) to use
795        EXTERNAL_FORCING_U,V,T,S subroutines (for backward compatibility).
796    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr, a little bit of clean up
797      - rearrange some code blocks, so that now all calculations for
798        setting up the right-hand-sides done within one single block
799        (I find that easier to read and understand)
800      - rearrange freedrift-code to reduce the number of ifdefs
801      - adjust some indentations and comments
802    
803    checkpoint64z (2014/07/10)
804    o model/src and several pkgs:
805      - change argument list of all S/R called from external_forcing.F and
806        called from ptracers_forcing.F (renamed to ptracers_apply_forcing.F)
807        to pass, as argument, the current level tendency array to update
808        (instead of a direct update of the common bloc array).
809      - change also (in the same way) argument list of PTRACERS_APPLY_FORCING;
810      - rename taueddy_external_forcing.f to taueddy_tendency_apply.F
811    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F
812      - always initialize local arrays in seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
813      - add more local tapes to seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
814      - move storing u/vice(:,:,bi,bj) out of seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v, but
815        keep it in bi/bj loop; this seems to be essential
816      - gradients are still wrong but only by 4-7 orders of magnitude
817        instead of 15 orders of magnitude, lab_sea improves a little
818    o pkg/seaice
819      - (pkg/autodiff) remove storing/restoring of seaiceMaskU/V that
820        generates unnecessary code in seaice_lsr_ad
821      - add more store directives in seaice_lsr to avoid unnecessary code
822        in seaice_lsr_ad
823      - exclude some residual computations in seaice_lsr when
824        ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC is defined in order to avoid unnecessary code
825        in seaice_lsr_ad
826      - add more storing, a new tape (model/src/the_main_loop.F) and
827        another key for SEAICE_LSR_VECTORIZE_ZEBRA (the local keys ilockey
828        and klockey should be checked by a specialist)
829      - modify ( define SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR and SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER )
830        and update lab_sea after previous changes in pkg/seaice below
831    o pkg/autodiff:
832      - introduce useSmoothCorrel2DinAdMode, SEAICEapproxLevInAd, and
833        viscFacInAd : run time parameters allowing for adjoint switches
834        note : logic for useSmoothCorrel2DinAdMode is in ctrl_readparms.F
835    o pkg/ecco:
836      - introduce cost_gencost_boxmean.F that computes a box mean
837        temperature (for use in adjoint sensitivity studies).
838    o model/src/set_defaults.F : initialize viscFacAdj to 1.
839    o pkg/mom_common/mom_calc_visc.F:
840      - ifdef ALLOW_AUTODIFF then include viscFacAdj factor.
841    o pkg/seaice/seaice_summary.F:
842      - statement for SEAICEadjMODE now in autodiff_readparms.F
843    o pkg/seaice:
844      - remove some store directives and add new ones in an effort to get
845        finally rid off the recomputation warnings. This is successful
846        when SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR ***and*** SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER are
847        defined (i.e. no extensive recomputation warnings left), but there
848        are still too many recomputations on the solver iteration level
849      - define SEAICE_VECTORISZE_LSR in offline_exf_seaice/code_ad/SEAICE_OPTIONS.h
850      - move definition of MPSEUDOTIMESTEPS into TAMC-block in
851        SEAICE_SIZE.h
852      - add a store directive in S/R seaice_calc_viscosities
853    o pkg/seaice (ITD code):
854      - fix definition of Hlimit for multi-threaded case
855      - use double precision arithmetic to compute Hlimit: this affects results;
856        update output of experiment seaice_itd.
857    o replace content of verification/seaice_itd
858      - instead of a 1D column use the configuration of offline_exf_seaice
859        to test the ice thickness distribution code with ridging
860      - this is a first shot at this experiment
861      - change of some defaults of ridging parameters SEAICEhStar (from
862        100 to 25) and SEAICEmuRidging (from 5 to 3) in seaice_readparms.F
863        and lot of new comments.
864    
865    checkpoint64y (2014/06/20)
866    o pkg/seaice/seaice_reg_ridge.F:
867      - modify the regularization of very small volumes of ice; only check
868        total volume HEFF, and do not apply correction to individual ice
869        classes because that leads to funny patterns in the heat and fw-fluxes
870        into the ocean. Adjust seaice_itd/results/output.txt
871      - replace nITD by SEAICE_multDim in loop-ranges
872    o pkg/exf:
873      - add code to process the case field period = -12. with UV interpolation.
874      - move debug print (formerly active when exf_verbose=T) from EXF_getFFieldRec
875        into S/R that calls it (i.e., exf_set_gen.F, exf_set_uv.F & obcs_exf_load.F)
876    o verification/global_with_exf:
877      - switch all fields period to -12. (was previously untested) in input/data.exf
878        (but keep secondary test ".yearly" unchanged); update the reference output.
879    o pkg/cal:
880      - new calendar type "noLeapYear" for 365 days calendar without any leap year.
881    o pkg/exf:
882      - new integer parameter "exf_debugLev" (default set to main model debugLevel)
883        to replace logical switch "exf_verbose"
884      - report in STDOUT when loading a new record (if exf_debugLev >= 3)
885    o pkg/sbo:
886      - update from Katherine Quinn: evaluate mass directly from density and SSH
887        (budget using Finite Volume method) instead of from bottom pressure.
888      - allow testreport to collect few selected SBO output ; tested in exp.
889        global_ocean.90x40x15 (after updating the results, to include SBO output).
890      - fix some multi-threading issues (in output part).
891    o model/src & most packages:
892      - always call {PKG}_READPARMS even if corresponding use{PKG}=F;
893      - in {PKG}_READPARMS, in case use{PKG}=F: add a call to new S/R
894        PACKAGES_UNUSED_MSG to print a weak warning when parameter file
895        "data.{pkg}" exist ; and leave the S/R (return) just after.
896      - more standard LAND pkg interface (land_init_fixed.F, land_check.F).
897        + call LAND_READPARMS from packages_readparms.F
898    o pkg/seaice:
899      - remove code that resets useThSice in S/R seaice_readparms and
900        replace it by a warning in S/R seaice_check
901      - remove parameter MULTDIM, replace with nITD and runtime
902        parameter SEAICE_multDim (still hard-wired to nITD if
903        SEAICE_ITD is defined)
904    
905    checkpoint64x (2014/05/24)
906    o verification/lab_sea:
907      - update adjoint and TLM output following changes to pkg/salt_plume
908      - un-do the update after putting back local recip_Cp in few places.
909    o pkg/salt_plume: modifications by An Nguyen:
910      - add capability to do brine rejection (salt-plume) as function of
911        volume+tracers (instead of only salinity tracer).
912      - conserve volume by exchanging volume from each kLev to above to
913        accommodate in-coming brine volume
914      - store surface and klev exchanged fraction + volume in 4 new 3-d arrays
915      - switch KPP surf buoyancy due to brine forcing to 3-d
916        (3 more 3-d arrays, 2 for SPforcing[T,S], 1 for boplume)
917      - add salt_plume_volfrac, salt_plume_apply, salt_plume_tendency_apply_t
918      - unrelatedly, also add ad-hoc capability to vary salt_plume scheme
919        in East/West Arctic.
920    o pkg/sbo:
921      - incorporate modifications from Katherine Quinn to enable the use of sbo
922        pkg in ECCO-v4 set-up ; remove SBO-TimeAve output ; add monitor-like
923        output for future testreport verification (unfinished).
924    o pkg/atm_phys:
925      - change diagnostics (AtPh_Trf & AtPh_Qrf) of DARGAN_BETTSMILLER S/R:
926        skip the reseting of t_ref & q_ref to initial t & q ; this preserve the
927        output of S/R CAPECALCNEW (Parcel temp & q) for diagnostics.
928    o pkg/seaice
929      seaice_calc_ice_strength.F: modify expression to avoid divisions
930        (affects truncation)
931      seaice_do_ridging.F: clean up the insectarium
932      - fix a bug that was compensated by areaScaling (-> remove areaScaling code)
933      - added SEAICEsnowFracRidge to redistributed snow (2nd bug)
934      - set closing/openingRate to zero where no extra iteration is need (3rd bug)
935      - add some debugging information and error messages (warnings)
936    o model/src: modifications relatd to atmosphere p*:
937      - Switch to more accurate p* coordinate slope term (calc_grad_phi_hyd.F)
938      - With p* or Sigma-P, use constant reference Pot.Temp (thetaConst) instead
939        of vertical profile tRef in geopotential background and anomaly.
940      - Acount for true p* correction in theta <-> T conversion in pkg/aim_v23
941        and pkg/atm_phys.
942      - Update FWD output of experiments: aim.5l_cs (x2), fizhi-cs-32x32x40,
943        fizhi-cs-aqualev20, fizhi-gridalt-hs, tutorial_held_suarez_cs, cpl_aim+ocn.
944    o pkg/seaice: fix a bug in seaice_prepare_ridging.F, forgot a sqrt
945    o pkg/ptracers: compute ptracer source/sink due to linear free surface.
946        not used right now, but can be used in BGC packages to fix conservation.
947    o pkg/dic, pkg/gchem: move tracer_meanarea to gchem, so it can be used by
948        other packages too.
949    o pkg/seaice/seaice_calc_ice_strength.F: replace SEAICE_rhoSnow by
950        SEAICE_rhoIce in the Rothrock (1975)-type strength calculations (bug fix)
951    o model/src:
952      - since we have several heat capacity (even in model/src), define "recip_Cp"
953        as local variable (no longer in common block) to avoid any confusion.
954      - add thetaConst in PARAMS.h (to be used with pStar or sigma-P coords).
955    o pkg/exf:
956      - from Jeff Scott: add option (#define EXF_CALC_ATMRHO) to calculate local
957        air density as function of air Temp, Humidity and atm pressure.
958    
959    checkpoint64w (2014/05/02)
960    o verification:
961      - update output_adm.txt files for experiment global_ocean.cs32x15 (seaice &
962        seaice_dynmix) and lab_sea (primary test & noseaicedyn): moving/changing
963        code from seaice_growth.F & seaice_advdiff.F to new ridging routines
964        seaice_reg_ridge.F seaice_do_ridging.F affects AD gradient
965        (down to 8-7 matching digits for global_ocean and 5-6 for lab_sea).
966    o model/src: for atmosphere in p* coords:
967      - store factor rStarFacC**atm_kappa (= pStarFacK) in common block
968      - implement more accurate p* coordinate slope term (in calc_grad_phi_hyd.F),
969        but not yet activated.
970    o pkg/seaice: fix restart problem for ITD with new ice strength parameterisation:
971      - move computation of opnWtrFrac = 1-AREA to before computing ice strength
972      - this changes the results (but not for any verification experiment, because
973        none tests this), but avoids having an extra field in the restart files
974    o pkg/seaice: remove global variable TICE (not needed)
975      - replace by TICES or local variable where necessary (cost_seaice_test,
976        seaice_diagnostics_state)
977      - move copying TICE to TICES from seaice_check_pickup to seaice_read_pickup
978      - use specific read/write routines for reading and writing individual leves
979        of a multilevel field
980    o pkg/ctrl & model/inc:
981      - move additional anomaly fields of control vars (related to options:
982         ALLOW_KAPGM_CONTROL, ALLOW_KAPREDI_CONTROL and ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG_CONTROL)
983        from DYNVARS.h into new header file: CTRL_FIELDS.h
984    o pkg/seaice: some small modifications to the ridging code
985      - make fw2ObyRidge a global variable and add the freshwater flux to
986        seaice_growth
987      - pass actual thickness from seaice_prepare_ridging, so that it is
988        computed only in one place and compute it in the same way as in
989        seaice_growth
990      - initialise more fields in seaice_do_ridging that where cause floating
991        point exceptions over land
992    o pkg/seaice: preparations for ridging code and first real ridging code
993      - move most of "PART 1" of S/R seaice_growth into a new and separate
994        S/R seaice_reg_ridge that will both regularize the state variable after
995        advection call the actual ridging routine;
996      - requires to make 5 fields global fields: d_HEFFbyNEG,d_HSNWbyNEG,
997        d_AREAbyRLX,d_HEFFbyRLX,saltFluxAdjust;
998      - remove ridging code from seaice_advdiff
999      - clean up remaining part 1 of seaice_growth in an attempt to make it
1000        more readable (this is probably subjective)
1001      - call seaice_itd_redist once in the initialisation phase to have the initial
1002        conditions in the correct category
1003      - finally: add new ridging routine for ITD code
1004    
1005    checkpoint64v (2014/04/11)
1006    o pkg/ecco:
1007      - add runtime parameters mdt[start,end]date[1,2]
1008      - rename variable "tpmean" as "mdt" and "topexmeanfile" as "mdtdatfile"
1009    o pkg/seaice:
1010      - make deltaC a global variable, so that it can be used in ridging code
1011      - first step towards ridging: introduce new routines that compute
1012        ice strength based on ridging parameters
1013      - add diagnostic for HSNOWITD
1014      - add opnWtrFrac as a global variable (required for ridging scheme)
1015    o pkg/salt_plume + pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F
1016      - add SALT_PLUME_IN_LEADS flag to activate pkg/salt_plume only when ice
1017        AREA exceeds a threshold (code contributed by I.Fenty in 2011)
1018    o verification/hs94.1x64x5:
1019      - leave ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC undefined in code_oad/AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h
1020      - do not use ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h anymore for TAF & OpenAD Adjoint tests.
1021    o autodiff:
1022      - Start to include explicitly AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, COST_OPTIONS.h,
1023        and CTRL_OPTIONS.h in src files (to enable to skip the ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h)
1024        For now, only in pkgs used in verification/hs94.1x64x5.
1025      - Replace ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC by ALLOW_AUTODIFF (except for tape/storage
1026        which are specific to TAF/TAMC).
1027      - Replace ALLOW_AUTODIFF_OPENAD by ALLOW_OPENAD:
1028        since ALLOW_OPENAD is defined in PACKAGES_CONFIG.h (any time pkg/openad
1029        is compiled), this simplifies/reduces which *_OPTIONS.h file to include.
1030      - OpenAD: change Makefile to generate the appropriate AD_CONFIG.h when
1031        building mitgcmuv_ad (make adAll).
1032    o pkg/ecco:
1033      - cost_gencost_seaicev4.F:
1034         reformulate proxy cost as function of sst and local param SEAICE_freeze
1035         change cost names from siv4-[sst,vol] to siv4-[deconc,exconc]
1036      - add stop statement if old names siv4-[sst,vol] are used
1037      - add snapshots + cost reports for atmospheric longwave
1038      - remove factor 0.1 in front of wtau[u,v]
1039      - replace never used flag ALLOW_TMI_COST_CONTRIBUTION with
1040         ALLOW_TMI_SST_COST_CONTRIBUTION
1041    o pkg/atm_phys:
1042      - add some diagnostics for Short-wave and for convection S/R.
1043    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth:
1044      - fix a bug in the lateral melt parameterization for SEAICE_ITD
1045        in seaice_growth; tempFrz needs to be computed inside the i/j-loop
1046      - rearrange loop order for better vector code in the same code block
1047      - rewrite the floeDiameter formula to have fewer divisions
1048      -  (miraculously) none of this changes the results of seaice_itd
1049    o pkg/smooth:
1050      - move param smooth2Ddiffnbt to pkg/ecco
1051    o pkg/salt_plume:
1052      - salt_plume_frac.F:
1053         clean up local param names
1054         reformulate (1-frac) to frac; original 1-frac was based on swfrac code
1055    o pkg/rw:
1056      - add RS version of S/R READ_MFLDS_LEV.
1057    o pkg/streamice:
1058      - fix the restart test by writing/reading pickup_streamice files.
1059    o pkg/seaice:
1060      - refine checks for jfnk-related parameters
1061      - comment out if statement with SEAICEuseIMEX parameter as long as there
1062        is no IMEX code to avoid confusion and surprises
1063    
1064    checkpoint64u (2014/03/07)
1065    o verification/MLAdjust:
1066      - rename secondary test suffix:
1067         1.leith  -> A4FlxF  + switch to flux-form & add side-drag
1068         0.leithD -> AhFlxF  + switch to flux-form
1069         0.smag   -> AhVrDv  (use Vorticity-Div. visc form) + add side-drag
1070         0.leith  -> AhStTn  (use Strain-Tension visc form) + add side-drag
1071    o pkg/mom_vecinv:
1072      - remove unused arguments from S/R MOM_VI_HDISSIP & MOM_HDISSIP (as it used
1073        to be before mom_calc_visc.F)
1074      - skip the call to MOM_CALC_TENSION & MOM_CALC_STRAIN if not needed.
1075      - add 2nd copy of vort3 & strain that knows about lateral BC (free/no slip):
1076        this is simpler for the adjoint and for diagnostics.
1077    o model/src + pkg/momentum:
1078      - add input files for  2-D additional Western and Southern cell-edge wall
1079         (e.g., to add "thin-wall" where it is =1).
1080      - fix sideDrag option for thin-walls with Non-Lin Free-Surf
1081        using 2nd hFacZ that is computed from initial (fix domain) hFac
1082      - known limitations of thin wall implementation: not yet coded for sigma
1083        coords; not working with CD-scheme neither.
1084    o pkg/seaice:
1085      - rename recently introduced parameters from (wrong name) AB to
1086        BDF (backward difference time discretisation)
1087      - retire runtime parameters SEAICEuseAB2, SEAICE_abEps
1088    o tools/adjoint_options:
1089      - remove setting of "OPENAD=true" (now set by command line "genmake2 -oad")
1090    
1091    checkpoint64t (2014/02/01)
1092    o pkg/ecco
1093      - add compile flag ALLOW_GENCOST_TIMEVARY_WEIGHT in ECCO_OPTIONS.h and
1094        runtime logical flag gencost_timevaryweight to read daily sea-ice sigma
1095      - replace hard-coded record number and period which only work for monthly
1096        with read-in runtime param that works for other periods (month,day,year)
1097    o pkg/thsice
1098      - corrected store directive fixes thsice adjoint gradient checks
1099    o genmake2 & testreport:
1100      - add genmake2 option "-oad" to generate a Makefile for OpenAD built and
1101        in this case, use tools/adjoint_options/adjoint_oad as default AD optfile.
1102        Update testreport accordingly. No need to set "export OPENAD=true"
1103        in adjoint_options/adjoint_oad anymore (will be removed later).
1104    o pkg/shelfice:
1105      - put T & S shelfice forcing into model surfaceForcing_T,_S (for now,
1106        only if SHELFICEboundaryLayer=F); Change model/src/external_forcing.F
1107        so that surface forcing applies to k=kSurf if using pkg/shelfice.
1108    o pkg/ctrl, pkg/grdchk, pkg/ecco:
1109      - Changes to make GENARR more modular (i.e. invisible if not used)
1110    o model/src/temp_integrate.F and salt_integrate.F
1111      - re-include store directives that were removed on Dec 27th.
1112    o model/src/external_forcing_surf.F
1113      - add storage directives for EmPmR and PmEpR to avoid recomputation of
1114        seaice_model in the adjoint that is problematic when seaice_model is
1115        turned off in the adjoint. The resolved issue dated back to July when
1116        EXTERNAL_FORCING_SURF call was moved.
1117        Update global_ocean.cs32x15/*/output_adm.seaice_dynmix.txt accordingly.
1118    o pkg/exf/exf_check.F
1119      - fix a small bug again (originally found by Wentao Liu, now found again)
1120      - streamline error output
1121    o pkg/streamice and aim_v23:
1122      - replace a few "_EXCH_XY_RL (" with "_EXCH_XY_RL(", so that
1123        Apple's /usr/bin/cpp knows what to do:
1124        Apple LLVM version 5.0 (clang-500.2.79) (based on LLVM 3.3svn)
1125        Target: x86_64-apple-darwin13.0.0
1126    
1127    checkpoint64s (2014/01/05)
1128    o tools/adjoint_options:
1129      - switch to fastopt.net TAF server (instead of default fastopt.de) for
1130        AD optfiles adjoint_diva & adjoint_f95 (similar to adjoint_default).
1131    o model/src:
1132      - remove some unnecessary TAF storage directives in forward_step.F and
1133        in dynamics.F (note: not always removed by TAF, e.g., double storage
1134        of kappaRU,kappaRV in former version of dynamics.F).
1135    o model/src & pkg/ptracers:
1136      - call directly GAD_IMPLICIT_R & IMPLDIFF + DWNSLP_APPLY from temp_integrate.F
1137        salt_integrate.F and ptracers_integrate.F (instead of from thermodynamics.F)
1138        and remove ptracers_dwnslp_apply.F & ptracers_implicit.F
1139      - call MATRIX_STORE_TENDENCY_EXP for each tracer (in ptracers_integrate.F)
1140      - add fZon & fMer as output argument of S/R GAD_CALC_RHS.
1141      - update TAF AD-output of experiments global_ocean.90x40x15 (13 for AD-grad).
1142    o useSingleCpuInput separates single-CPU input from single-CPU output;
1143        for now only implemented for in exf_interp_read.F
1144    o verification/advect_xy:
1145      - fix missing EXCH call in local version of ini_salt.F and update output.
1146    o momentum diagnostics:
1147      - fix which deltaT is used in Total-Tendency diagnostics.
1148      - fix typo in diagnostics for momentum tendency from AB.
1149    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F: fix an initialisation bug for the
1150        SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA option that lead to NaNs on a NEC-SX8
1151    
1152    checkpoint64r (2013/12/08)
1153    o verification/*/results:
1154      - Update reference output of experiments that were passing with just 13 digits
1155         (make it easier to detect future changes in results)
1156    o model/src & pkg/ptracers:
1157      - move calls to GAD_ADVECTION (Multi-Dim advection) from thermodynamics.F to
1158        inside temp_integrate.F and salt_integrate.F and from ptracers_advection.F
1159        to inside ptracers_integrate.F ; remove ptracers_advection.F
1160    o coupling interface pkgs:
1161        [atm_compon_interf, ocn_compon_interf & atm_ocn_coupler]
1162      - change the config check to test the agreement of Ocean Depth
1163        with ATM land/sea mask (instead of ATM orography);
1164      - send to coupler the number of coupler time-steps to do for this run:
1165        this allows to check for consistency and don't need anymore to be
1166        specified in parameter file "data";
1167      in coupler:
1168      - check consistency of RunOff map versus Ocean Depth and ATM land/sea mask.
1169      - improve report to log-file of config setting (pass log-file unit to few S/R)
1170    o pkg/compon_communic:
1171      - add coupling send/receive for non-tiled integer vector;
1172      - add S/R to check and stop if any proc has an error (similar to
1173        eesupp/src/stop_if_error.F but single thread and across Comm_World).
1174    o pkg/exch2:
1175      - in exch2*_get_rx[1,2]: use new list "W2_tileIndex" to replace search
1176        through list of all tiles my proc owns.
1177    o model/src:
1178      - AUTODIFF only: in calc_adv_flow.F, recompute rTransKp (instead of copying
1179        from rTrans) to simplify dependencies (no need to store rTrans anymore in
1180        calling S/R); this affects AD results at machine truncation level:
1181        update AD-output (TAF) of experiments: 1D_ocean_ice_column,
1182        bottom_ctrl_5x5 & obcs_ctrl (12 digits for AD grad, same FWD grad).
1183    o tools/build_options:
1184      - simplify Warnings options (-ieee & -devel cases) in linux_amd64_gfortran
1185    o coupling interface pkgs:
1186        [compon_communic, atm_compon_interf & ocn_compon_interf]
1187      - move declaration of local array "ibuf" out of header file "CPLR_SIG.h"
1188        to each S/R that needs it; remove un-used variables.
1189      - change component tile registration (cpl_register.F in both compon_interf
1190        and mitcomponent_tile_register.F) to pass the full list of tiles
1191        information (including bi,bj) in 1 vector (instead of in a bi,bj matrix).
1192      - with pkg/exch2: adopt the same convention used for I/O to define mapping
1193        towards coupler global array (unless W2_useE2ioLayOut=F):
1194         a) can now use different tiling between atm & ocn comp.
1195         b) no needs to modify the run-Off map when changing tiling (was needed
1196            even if using the same tiling between atm & ocn).
1197         c) will allow to run with blank-tiles in 1 component (e.g., for ocean
1198            full land tiles); not yet tested.
1199      - check for valid mapping from comp. tile to coupler global array
1200      - improve report of tile registration results to log file.
1201    o pkg/exch2:
1202      - in eesupp/src/eeboot.F: move call to W2_EEBOOT before Coupler
1203        tile-registration (CPL_REGISTER);
1204      - activate (un-comment) definition and setting of "W2_tileIndex" list to
1205        store the local bi,bj indices of each tile;
1206      - also print bi,bj in local report to log file;
1207      - fix pkg/debug/debug_cs_corner_uv.F for the case nSy > 1 (left from
1208        Jun 2009 modif of pkg/exch2).
1209    o testing on baudelaire:
1210      - run 2 tests at a time: no significant slow down (since enough cpu) and
1211        get the full set of test done earlier
1212      - switch the ifort test to "-devel" ; run the OpenAD test everyday.
1213    o model/src/thermodynamics.F and routines called from it:
1214      - pkg/gmredi: gmredi_residual_flow.F (replacing gmredi_calc_uvflow.F &
1215        gmredi_calc_wflow.F) to update eulerian velocity (input) into residual
1216        velocity (outp) by adding bolus velocity.
1217      - model/src: calc_adv_flow.F (replacing calc_common_factors.F) to compute
1218        mass transport from velocity + lateral grid cell area
1219      - rename calc_gt.F to temp_integrate.F (includes call to TIMESTEP_TRACER)
1220      - rename calc_gs.F to salt_integrate.F (includes call to TIMESTEP_TRACER)
1221     in thermodynamics.F
1222      - remove k from thermodynamics.F and move it to temp_integrate.F
1223        salt_integrate.F and ptracers_integrate.F (now done inside the tracer
1224        loop).
1225      - compute locally (in thermodynamics.F) 3-D velocity field that is used to
1226        advect tracers; pass it as argument to GAD_ADVECTION, GAD_SOM_ADVECT,
1227        PTRACERS_ADVECTION, TEMP_INTEGRATE, SALT_INTEGRATE, PTRACERS_INTEGRATE,
1228        GAD_IMPLICIT_R and PTRACERS_IMPLICIT
1229      - update AD-output (TAF & OAD) of experiments: 1D_ocean_ice_column,
1230        global_ocean.90x40x15, tutorial_global_oce_biogeo and
1231        tutorial_tracer_adjsens (+ TLM output).
1232    o tools/OAD_support and (verification/*/) code_oad:
1233      - OAD_support/cb2mGetModules.csh: add PACKAGES_CONFIG.h in header file to
1234        module conversion ; remove unneeded CPP_EEOPTIONS.h.
1235      - code_oad/CPP_OPTIONS.h: remove PACKAGES_CONFIG.h and use a more standard
1236        version (closer to model/inc/CPP_OPTIONS.h).
1237    o model/src:
1238      - remove parameter "useOldFreezing" from PARAMS.h and push it to the
1239        retired list of parameters (routine FREEZE has been replace by surface
1240        freezing (10.yrs ago) and by pkg/frazil (interior freezing).
1241    o pkg/gmredi:
1242      - add option (GM_CALC_TRANSP_FROM_VEL) to compute transport directly from
1243        velocity (same scheme but affects machine truncation) for GM_AdvForm.
1244      - update output of FWD experiments: front_relax.bvp,
1245        global_ocean.90x40x15.dwnslp, global_ocean.cs32x15 and ideal_2D_oce.
1246    
1247    checkpoint64q (2013/11/17)
1248    o verification:
1249      - generate new output on baudelaire (gfortran, -ieee) for OpenAD experiments
1250        tutorial_global_oce_biogeo and global_ocean.90x40x15.
1251      - generate new output (growth & melt) for seaice_itd experiment after
1252        updating the input pickup_seaice files (previously wrong).
1253    o pkg/cost:
1254      - define a "final cost function" for each tile, and use GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL
1255        (instead of _GLOBAL_SUM_RL) to get the final cost from all procs & threads:
1256        o this fixes global-sum value if multi-threads (since GLOBAL_SUM_RL
1257          cannot be applied to var in common block).
1258        o allows to get results independent of tile-per-proc setting (if using
1259          slower GLOBAL_SUM_SEND_RECV option).
1260      - update accordingly: seaice_cost_final.F, shelfice_cost_final.F,
1261        thsice_cost_final.F and ecco_cost_final.F (this one affects lab_sea
1262        forward gradients: update output).
1263      - update */code_oad/externalDummies.F by adding dummy GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL
1264        S/R and, for most exp., also comment out GLOBAL_SUM_R8.
1265    o pkg/mom_common:
1266      - move to pkg/mom_common and model/src (previously in tutorial_deep_convection
1267        code) 2nd version of isotropic 3-D Smagorinsky code interface: strain and
1268        viscosity are locally declared in dynmics.F and pass as argument to CALC_GW;
1269        ensure that all field value that are used are set.
1270    o tutorial_deep_convection (smag3d):
1271      - add missing scaling in mom_calc_smag_3d.F;
1272      - set smag3D_coeff in input.smag3d such that results do not change.
1273    o pkg/dic:
1274      - change dic_cost.F to compute cost on each tile first and then apply
1275        GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL: this affects forward gradient of AD experiments
1276        tutorial_dic_adjoffline & tutorial_global_oce_biogeo; update output.
1277      - remove kLev argument and use GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL in tracer_meanarea.
1278    o eesupp/src & pkg/mdsio:
1279      - remove gather/scatter_vector.F (from eesupp) and mdsio_read/writevector.F
1280        (from pkg/mdsio) since they are no longer used for tape IO.
1281      - move simple C subroutine "setdir.c" from pkg/compon_communic to eesupp/src
1282        (+ keep a copy in pkg/atm_ocn_coupler).
1283    o verification/isomip:
1284      - split domain in 8 squared tiles (instead of just 2) for FWD, AD & OAD tests.
1285    o tools/build_options:
1286      - optfile linux_amd64_ifort11, fast (no ieee) case:
1287        to get a working restart for all experiments, add "-fp-model source"
1288        to FOPTIM (also remove "-opt-streaming-stores auto" <- this is the default).
1289    
1290    checkpoint64p (2013/10/20)
1291    o pkg/autodiff:
1292      - adread_adwrite.F: when type and length do not match ALLOW_AUTODIFF_WHTAPEIO
1293        criteria, return to simple (default) tape IO format.
1294    o pkg/mdsio (+ eesupp/src):
1295      - rewrite/simplify tape-IO S/R (new S/R MDS_READ/WRITE_TAPE replace
1296        previous MDSREAD/WRITEVECTOR) with 2 array argument from each type (R4/R8);
1297      - fix globalFile and singleCpuIO options using simpler global mapping.
1298      - new pairs of scatter/gather vector S/R (one for each type, generated from
1299        template) corresponding to simpler global mapping.
1300      - adread_write.F: switch to new S/R (but leave old calls commented) and write
1301        to globalFile when parameter globalFiles is set to True.
1302      - switch on useSingleCpuIO in AD experiments: global_ocean.90x40x15 & isomip.
1303    o pkg/autodiff:
1304      - adread_adwrite.F: add a hack for RS arrays (when RS=real*4);
1305        with ALLOW_AUTODIFF_WHTAPEIO defined, since corresponding (real*4) is
1306        missing, just add a STOP if array type do not match.
1307    o pkg/exf:
1308      - to allow to use seaice-fraction from pkg/exf in other pkgs than pkg/seaice:
1309         rename CPP option EXF_ALLOW_SEAICE_RELAX to EXF_SEAICE_FRACTION
1310         and rename array obsSIce to exf_iceFraction.
1311    o tutorial_deep_convection:
1312      - add 1rst version of isotropic 3-D Smagorinsky code (from Louis-Philippe),
1313        for now all in this exp. code dir.
1314      - add secondary test using Smag-3D viscosity (keep very low backgroud visc for
1315        testing) and flux-limter advection scheme for Temp. (no explicit diffusion).
1316    o eesupp/src:
1317      - added SINGLE_DISK_IO option because reading of parameter files on
1318        very large number of processors did not work with existing set-up
1319    
1320    checkpoint64o (2013/09/25)
1321    o pkg/atm_phys & atm_compon_interf:
1322      - allows for coupling of gray-atmosphere (atm_phys) with ocean.
1323    o tools/build_options:
1324      - switch from "-fPIC" to "-mcmodel=medium" in optfiles: linux_amd64_gfortran
1325        & linux_amd64_ifort11 and in linux_amd64_g77 & linux_amd64_open64 also
1326        remove CPP setting (was identical to genmake2 default).
1327    o pkg/gmredi & model/src: Some updating and work done on the residual model.
1328      - created new file model/src/calc_eddy_stress.F to calculate the eddy stress.
1329      - fixed up the calculation of the eddy stress and how it is added to the
1330        external forcing via taueddy_external_forcing.F
1331      - at the moment, it is very experimental and only works with the variable eddy
1332        diffusivity calculated in gmredi_k3d.F
1333    o pkg/seaice/seaice_check.F: add a check to catch the case of specifying
1334        lw/swfluxfile instead of lw/swdownfile in data.exf together with pkg/seaice
1335    o testreport (& tools/do_tst_2+2):
1336      - for MPI test, set default COMMAND to 'mpirun -v -np TR_NPROC ./{executable}'
1337    o tools/build_options: linux_amd64_gfortran & linux_amd64_ifort11:
1338      - remove CPP='cpp -traditional -P' (this is genmake2 default)
1339      - add switch (for big setups) to use 'medium' memory-model (but leave it
1340        commented out for now). Note: needed with FC 19 to compile big setups.
1341    o pkg/atm_compon_interf:
1342      - regroup per field origin (model & pkgs) the coupling storage routines
1343         (which accumalate in time each coupling field)
1344      - move bi,bj loops inside atm_store_my_data.F and store also wind-stress;
1345        update accordingly + simplify aim_do_physics.F
1346    
1347    checkpoint64n (2013/08/26)
1348    o pkg/bbl:
1349      - update formulation to reduce dispersion of tracer properties in bbl
1350      - replaced horizontal and vertical transport parameters with velocities
1351      - changes results for verification/global_with_exf.yearly
1352    o verification/halfpipe_streamice:
1353      - change to matrix construction; update both Fwd & AD output.
1354    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens:
1355      - OpenAD test: switch to vector-invariant momentum since fluxform with
1356        rStar causes problems with OpenAD; update output.
1357    o tools:
1358      - genmake2: define a common prefix for all temp-file names ; move them
1359        to local /tmp disk (but would be easy to move them back);
1360      - xmakedepend: apply the same switch for temp-files.
1361    o pkg/offline:
1362      - changes for use with rStar (NLFS): assume that we continue to provide
1363        UVELMASS/hFacW_ini & VVELMASS/hFacS_ini (hFacWi,S_ini as written in grid
1364        output files) and apply r* scaling at each time-step (function of the time
1365        varying Eta field); use normal pickup files (needed for restart with NLFS).
1366    o adjoint with OpenAD:
1367      - move OpenAD-specific files from verification/OpenAD/code_oad_all to a new
1368        package openad.  This package has to be compiled for all runs with OpenAD
1369        instead of specifying code_oad_all as a modification directory.
1370      - link the fortran templates from tools/OAD_support to the build directory
1371        for preprocessing to avoid conflicts between different setups compiled
1372        simultaneously and simplify cleanup.
1373    o pkg/exf:
1374      - in exf_getforcing.F: comment out most of the EXCH calls (fields used by
1375        main model or other pkgs are exchanged in EXF_MAPFIELDS).
1376    o model/src:
1377      - do_stagger_fields_exchanges.F: skip EXCH calls when using pkg/offline
1378        (similar to do_fields_blocking_exchanges.F).
1379    o tools/genmake2:
1380      - remove TAF output src code just before calling staf (when not doing a fresh
1381        built, will stop if things go wrong with staf).
1382      - fix target "adobj" (left from TAF version-2 transition)
1383    o pkg/diagnostics:
1384      - add a parameter to track the status of pkg/diagnostics activation;
1385        this replace/extend the use of logical param "settingDiags" (to check
1386        when adding diag to the list) to also check any DIAGNOSTICS_[]FILL* call.
1387        New S/R to print error message and stop when pkgStatus is not right.
1388      - to try: add a warning when "data.diagnostics" exist but useDiagnostics=F.
1389    
1390    checkpoint64m (2013/08/13)
1391    o model/inc:
1392      - move FCORI_MACROS.h from PARAMS(_MACROS).h to GRID_MACROS.h (left from
1393        8 yrs ago modif when Coriolis arrays were moved from PARAMS.h to GRID.h)
1394    o pkg/kpp & aim_v23:
1395      - only call DIAGNOSTICS_FILL when useDiagnostics=TRUE.
1396    o pkg/seaice:
1397      - restore (last time on 2011/12/24) ability to compile pkg/seaice with
1398        undefined pkg/exf ALLOW_ATM_TEMP or ALLOW_RUNOFF CPP-options.
1399      - only call DIAGNOSTICS_FILL when useDiagnostics=TRUE.
1400    o eesupp/src:
1401      - fix check for overlap-size argument (myOLn.GT.MAX_OLY_EXCH)
1402        in exch1_rx[_ad].template (thanks to Francois Lefeuvre report).
1403    o switch to TAF version-2:
1404      - add flow directives to "freeze" naming convention for ad-routines that
1405        are used in I/O routines of adjoint state and associated common blocks
1406        that are used in adcommon.h (backward compatible with version-1)
1407      - update all ad-optfiles (in tools/adjoint_options + few local to some
1408        verification exp) to switch to latest TAF version (currently 2.5.5);
1409        merge "*_mpi" adoptfiles into the corresponding non-mpi (but commented
1410        out except for diva).
1411      - the major change with TAF version-2 is that both the differentiated
1412        routines and the forward routines (new) are returned as part of the TAF
1413        output source code. Update genmake2 accordingly.
1414      - new output for AD experiment tutorial_global_oce_biogeo (better AD gradient
1415        with version-2 when compared to TLM or FWD gradient); other experiments
1416        output show minor changes (machine truncation level); update the few AD &
1417        TLM output with 12 matching digits only (some prior to version-2 switch).
1418    
1419    checkpoint64l (2013/08/05)
1420    o model/src:
1421      - in dynamics.F, skip the call to CALC_VISCOSITY if momViscosity=F
1422      - main_do_loop.F: no longer includes additional (AUTODIFF) header files
1423        when using TAF but only if using OpenAD.
1424    o pkg/mom_common+fluxform+vecinv:
1425      - always set horiz. viscosity arrays to background value before calling
1426        MOM_CALC_VISC (in MOM_FLUXFORM & MOM_VECINV) and call S/R MOM_CALC_VISC
1427        only when using variable horiz. viscosity (useVariableVisc=T);
1428      - simplify mom_vecinv.F (only 1 block for momViscosity).
1429    o pkg/mom_common: variable horiz. viscosity in NH code
1430      - move horiz-viscosity 3-D arrays viscAh_W & viscA4_W (used in calc_gw.F)
1431        from model/inc/NH_VARS.h to pkg/mom_common/MOM_VISC.h
1432      - store in common block (in MOM_VISC.h) logical parameters: useHarmonicVisc,
1433        useBiharmonicVisc & useVariableVisc.
1434      - fix old bug (already in 1rst implementation of variable horizontal viscosity
1435        in calc_gw.F, version 1.27, 2006/06/20):
1436        horizontal bi-harmonic viscosity in gW was missing when wiscA4W=0
1437        even if variable bi-harmonic viscosity (e.g., viscA4Grid) was non-zero.
1438      - change background horiz viscosity in vertical momentum (gW) to always be
1439        viscAhW,viscA4W (instead of switching to viscAhD, viscA4D when using
1440        any type of variable viscosity, e.g., viscAh/4Grid)
1441      - change default value of viscAhW,viscA4W to viscAhD,viscA4D (instead of
1442        viscAh,viscA4) which default to viscAh,viscA4 :  this avoid missing
1443        horiz. viscosity in W eq when just setting viscAhD/Z,viscA4D/Z (since
1444        default viscAh,viscA4 is zero).
1445    o model/src:
1446      - extend length of drC & recip_drC from Nr to Nr+1.
1447    o Divided Adjoint (DIVA) with MPI:
1448      - genmake2: do not create local ./mpi_headers dir when no file to copy into.
1449      - remove option ALLOW_DIVIDED_ADJOINT_MPI (replaced by ALLOW_DIVIDED_ADJOINT
1450        and ALLOW_USE_MPI) from model/src code and from ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h.
1451    
1452    checkpoint64k (2013/07/23)
1453    o tools/OAD_support:
1454      - avoid the need for file "oadtempflile" in insertTemplateDir.bash
1455        and remove it from genmake2.
1456    o tools/build_options:
1457      - remove MPI_HEADER_FILES_INC setting (no longer used) and comment out
1458        MPI_HEADER_FILES list (let genmake2 find the missing headers)
1459    o verification/halfpipe_streamice:
1460      - change to driving stress formulation; update both Fwd & AD output.
1461    o tools/genmake2 and Divided Adjoint with MPI:
1462      - remove default setting of MPIINCLUDEDIR from $MPIHOME (always been broken);
1463      - only create local ./mpi_headers dir if using MPI and MPIINCLUDEDIR is set;
1464      - add new variable (LOCAL_MPI_HEADERS, replace MPI_HEADER_FILES_INC) in
1465        Makefile, which is set by genmake2, and check which mpi-headers are needed.
1466        Note: need to update adjoint_options/adjoint_diva_mpi accordingly.
1467      - update target "CLEAN" (to also remove ./mpi_headers/ dir).
1468    o testreport:
1469      - changes for Divided Adjoint Run: when file "run_ADM_DIVA" is present,
1470        perform additional runs (number of additional runs is "add_DIVA_runs" taken
1471        from file run_ADM_DIVA ; should match "nchklev_3" in file "code_ad/tamc.h").
1472    o verification/lab_sea (AD test):
1473      - change to test Divided Adjoint Run in this set-up (both standard AD test
1474        and 2 secondary AD test: noseaice + noseaicedyn); drop the evp AD test.
1475    o pkg atm_ & ocn_compon_interf:
1476      - remove cpl_earlyExpImpCall=F option (was mainly a hack added for the old
1477        staggerTimeStep implementation) and disable (retired) corresponding
1478        parameter.
1479    o pkg/offline:
1480      - comment out unused field-array: ICEM, ConvectCount, hflx[01], icem[01];
1481      - add S/R OFFLINE_CHECK to print offline parameter summary
1482        and stop if loading a file that is not used;
1483      - enable to calculate GMRedi tensor, KPP mixing and convective index
1484        when the corresponding file(s) is/are not specified (but pkg is used).
1485      - comment out resetting of monitorFreq (to endTime) since it still useful
1486        for monitoring CFL numbers and checking offline fields.
1487    o OpenAD:
1488      - do not define OAD_DEBUG (in tools/adjoint_options/adjoint_oad) to get
1489        smaller standard output) and generate new (smaller) output (on baudelaire
1490        using gfortran with -ieee) for exp. tutorial_tracer_adjsens
1491    o model/src:
1492      - call EXTERNAL_FORCING_SURF outside bi,bj loops (in do_oceanic_phys.F),
1493        (where external_forcing_adjust was called) and change list of arguments;
1494      - merge external_forcing_adjust.F into external_forcing_surf.F
1495      - put surface relaxation of SST & SSS in new S/R (forcing_surf_relax.F)
1496        which also contains balancing surface relaxation (ALLOW_BALANCE_RELAX,
1497        previously in file "balance_relax.F", now removed); remove corresponding
1498        arrays in FFIELDS.h.
1499      - EXTERNAL_FORCING_SURF is now called when using pkg/offline; implement
1500        a hack for getting back surfaceForcingS (loaded from file) when using
1501        ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX (pkg/dic, in DIC_OPTIONS.h) in offline set-up.
1502      - update output of AD test experiment global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice_dynmix
1503        (was getting only 11 digits for AD-grad, due to different truncation
1504         error in AD code).
1505    
1506    checkpoint64j (2013/07/04)
1507    o pkg/offline:
1508      - to enable the use of other features with pkg offline (e.g., obcs),
1509        also call S/R DO_OCEANIC_PHYS in offline run - more modifs to come.
1510      - comment out "allowFreezing" (now active) in 2 offline testing exp.
1511  o pkg/exf ALLOW_RUNOFTEMP  o pkg/exf ALLOW_RUNOFTEMP
1512    - fix sign and make compatible with temp_EvPrRn .NE. UNSET_RL    - fix sign and make compatible with temp_EvPrRn .NE. UNSET_RL
1513    - added RUNOFTEMP test to verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.seaice    - ahdded RUNOFTEMP test to verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.seaice
1514    - changes verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/results/output.seaice.txt    - changes verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/results/output.seaice.txt
1515  o pkg/atm_phys:  o pkg/atm_phys:
1516    - allows to add some damping on uVel,vVel (strength only function of k).    - allows to add some damping on uVel,vVel (strength only function of k).
