4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o pkg/seaice:
8      - change the termination criterion so that maxits (SEAICElinearIterMax)
9        has an effect
10      - unify iteration parameters for implicit solvers (JFNK and Picard)
11        SEAICEnonLinIterMax replaces SEAICEnewtonIterMax/NPSEUDOTIMESTEPS
12        SEAICElinearIterMax replaces SEAICEkrylovIterMax/SOLV_MAX_ITER
13        SEAICEpreLinIterMax replaces SOLV_MAX_ITER in preconditioner
14        SEAICEpreNL_IterMax replaces NPSEUDOTIMESTEPS in preconditioner
15        SEAICEnonLinTol     replaces JFNKgamma_nonlin
16      - remove S/R SEAICE_FGMRES_DRIVER and put content into S/R SEAICE_JFKN
17      - add new Picard-Krylov solver, compile with SEAICE_ALLOW_KRYLOV and
18        use with SEAICEuseKrylov
19    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F
20      fix small bug: replace zetaZ by zetaZloc in S/R seaice_lsr_rhsu/v; only
21      relevant if SEAICEuseStrImpCpl=T, and even then it does not seem to have
22      an effect.
23    o pkg/seaice: add two new parameters
24      - SEAICEuseLSR to simplify the logic in seaice_dynsolver (this
25        parameter is not in any namelist)
26      - SEAICEusrPicardAsPrecon to allow s/r seaice_lsr to be used as
27        a preconditioner for the non-linear Newton iteration of the JFNK
28        solver
29    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F: replace 1./SEAICE_deltaTdyn with recip_deltaT,
30      affects some experiments at truncation level:
31      - global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn (11 digits),
32      - global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice (11 digits),
33      - seaice_itd (12 digits), seaice_itd.lipscomb07 (12 digits) -> update
34      - also update global_ocean.cs32x15 adjoint and tangent-linear results
35    o pkg/salt_plume & pkg/thsice:
36      - for coupled  set-up with pkg/thsice in ATM and pkg/salt_plume in OCN,
37        connect salt_plume flux to ATM-OCN coupling pkgs interface:
38       a) in ATM: also cumulate salt-plume flux in S/R THSICE_SALT_PLUME (for
39         export to coupler interface) even without compiling pkg/salt_plume ;
40       b) in OCN: apply coupler salt-plume flux to pkg/salt_plume field
41         (saltPlumeFlux) just before exch call, in S/R SALT_PLUME_DO_EXCH.
42    o pkg/dic:
43      - use the updated seaice fraction (from seaice pkgs) for DIC forcing
44        instead of the previous time-step value ; done in new S/R DIC_FIELDS_UPDATE
45        called from the top of dic_biotic_forcing.F (instead of in DIC_FIELDS_LOAD);
46      - move also update with values from ATM-OCN Coupler in the same new S/R
47        (previously done in ocn_apply_import.F).
48    o tools/adjoint_options:
49      - specify explicitly "-f77" or "-f90" in default ad-optfile since TAF (default)
50        has been changed on Jan 14, 2016.
51    o pkg/ggl90:
52      - add alternative discretisation of vertical shear (off by default), to
53        compute the mean (@ grid-cell center) of vertical shear compon instead of
54        vertical shear of mean flow (@ grid-cell center).
55      - add correct parenthesis in ALLOW_GGL90_SMOOTH code to get the same truncated
56        results on adjacent faces of cubed-sphere grids; this fix the restart.
57    o pkg/atm_compon_interf:
58      - skip time-ave over cpl_atmSendFrq of Sea-Level Pressure (atmSLPr) and just
59        pass last value, stored directly before export to CPL ;
60        Note: this affects results of Coupled set-up where OCN uses useImportSLP=T
61      - remove atmSLPr from pickup files (no longer needed for restart)
62    
63    checkpoint65s (2016/01/13)
64    o eesupp & genmake2:
65       - first check for Function ETIME and, if it fails, then check for subroutine
66         ETIME and consistent output; use the appropriate version in timers.F
67    o model/src:
68      - to check restart test, add option to apply EXCH to U,V earlier, just before
69        integr_continuity; turned off by default.
70    o pkg/dic:
71      - remove CPP option USE_ATMOSCO2 (not needed)
72    o tools/tst_2+2:
73      - try to ignore difference between +0 and -0 in binary file, causing test
74        to fail for no good reason.
75    o eesupp & genmake2:
76      - put back modif from Jinxuan Zhu - change etime fct call to S/R call -
77        but also check (in genmake2) that test runs and returns meaningful results.
78    o coupler pkgs:
79      Finish implementation of optionally-exchanged variable switches (started on
80       Nov 12) with addition of few more exchanged fields, including 2-way exchange
81       of pkg/thsice vars to allow to use seaice dynamics (from pkg/seaice) & seaice
82       advection in OCN component; this requires sequential coupling.
83      coupler (pkg/atm_ocn_coupler):
84      - add argument msgUnit and iter number to CPL_SEND/RECV_ATM/OCN_FIELDS
85        routines (useful for debug).
86      - only export/import optionally exchanged fields (RunOff, seaice, Salt-Plume
87         flux, DIC fields) if corresponding switch is ON.
88      - add option to export RunOff to OCN (to use for DIC river input)
89      - add 2-way thSIce vars exchange; check for consistent cpl_sequential setting.
90      components (pkg/atm_ & ocn_compon_interf):
91      - to save memory space in ATM & OCN comp: add some #ifdef ALLOW_${PKG} around
92        optionally exchanged fields; add a check & stop in cpl_readparms.F.
93        ATMCPL.h: ALLOW_LAND for RunOff, ALLOW_THSICE for seaice, ALLOW_AIM for CO2;
94        OCNCPL.h: ALLOW_SALT_PLUME, ALLOW_DIC for DIC, ALLOW_THSICE for 2-W thsice.
95      - rename:   fracIce     -> sIceFrac_cpl (<- match coupler var name)
96        + in ATM: fracIceTime -> sIceFracTime ; seaIceTime -> sIceMassTime.
97      - add 2-way thSIce vars exchange ; add Salt-Plume flux ; add RunOff in OCN.
98      - hold in common block coupler optionally-exchanged variable switch
99        and set default "useImportXXX" accordingly; + check & stop if inconsistent.
100      - add diagnostics for all imported fields from coupler (in both OCN & ATM);
101        this is intended to replace the OCN cplFldtave.* output files (not updated
102        to contain new additional exchanged fields).
103    o pkg/dic:
104      - fix an other bug (also from 2014/08/30) in dic_atmos.F, in dic_int1=3 code.
105    o pkg/thsice:
106      - when coupled to ATM (useCoupler) with thSIce_skipThermo=T, skip reading
107        and writing of thsice pickup files.
108    o pkg/atm_compon_interf:
109      - move all field individual export-call out of cpl_export_import_data.F
110        into new S/R ATM_EXPORT_FIELDS
111    o pkg/atm_compon_interf:
112      - store state variables (for now, only thSIce fields) just before beeing
113        exported (in cpl_export_import_data.F, like on ocean side) instead of from
114        atm_store_my_data.F like all exported fluxes.
115      - new version of pickup_cpl: write field names into meta file and read meta
116        file to find field postion in pickup. Also only write/read fields meeded for
117        restart (same logic as main pickup file ; also using pickupStrictlyMatch)
118    o pkg/dic:
119      - fix bug (added on 2014/08/30) in dic_atmos.F for the case dic_int1= 2 or 3.
120    o pkg/seaice: add new parameter SEAICEpressReplFac to choose between
121        pressure replacement method (=1., default) or original Hibler (1979) (=0.)
122        value can be from domain [0,1] to average between the two methods
123    o pkg/atm_phys:
124      - allow to provide 2-d map of albedo and mixed-layer depth from files (but
125        hold fixed in time).
126    
127    checkpoint65r (2015/12/21)
128    o pkg/seaice:
129        fix bug in tridiagonal solvers for SEAICE_OLx/y>0, this affects the JFNK
130        solver (offline.dyn_jfnk) and global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice -> updated
131    o pkg/seaice:
132      - fix a bug in computing areaS in (J-J -> J-1) that affects runs
133        when SEAICEscaleSurfStress=.TRUE.,
134      - apply areaW and areaS in S/R seaice_calc_lhs
135    o pkg/atm_phys:
136      - add diagnostics for 3-D, Nr+1 levels diagnostics of radiative fluxes
137        (shortwave & longwave, net & downward) and diagnostics of temp. tendency
138        for individual contribution (convection, LSC cond, radiation)
139      - add Ruth Geen etal, GRL 2016, radiation optionis (see paper supp.
140        information); activated with: solar_exponent=0. and wv_exponent=-1.
141    o pkg/ggl90:
142      - within IDEMIX add upper limit for horizontal group velocity to
143        avoid instability problems in the explicit horizontal diffusion term for
144        long time steps or high resolution
145    o pkg/diagnostics:
146      - simplify setting of local-array size in diagstats_output.F: uses "numLevels"
147        (from DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h) to allow to write out more than Nr levels.
148    o testreport:
149      - remove "-v" (verbose option) in default mpirun command.
150    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth:
151      - catch potential division by zero in ITD code, does not change
152        verification results
153    o pkg/ecco:
154      - retire old codes to the Attic. The calls to retired functions are
155        left in a commented form in case they ever need to be re-activated.
156      - ecco_check.F: issue warning if any old CPP option is
157        defined that corresponds to retired codes -- then stop.
158    o pkg/atm_compon_interf:
159      - change seaice fraction (use for OCN dic surf.flux) stored and sent to
160        coupler: use last time-step value instead of average over cplSendFrq_iter
161        time-step, similar to what is done for seaIceMass.
162        This will affect results (pkg/dic) of coupled ATM-OCN+dic set-up.
163    o eesupp & genmake2:
164      - from Jinxuan Zhu: change etime fct call to S/R call (fix gfortran ETIME);
165        <= remove until a fix is found for some ifort version on ia32 machine.
166    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp:
167      - refine residual computation
168    
169    checkpoint65q (2015/11/18)
170    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp:
171      - fix residual computations so that they no longer affect the actual
172        simulation code
173      - fix seaice_readparams to be able to actually set new parameters
174        SEAICEaEVPcStar and SEAICEaEVPalphaMin, also fix logic a little
175    o model/src:
176      - fix wrong truncation (single prec) from "FLOAT" function in expressions
177        like: deltaT*FLOAT(myIter) when myIter is large:
178         a) replaced by DFLOAT (if not seen by TAF);
179         b) remove "FLOAT" and use implicit type conversion (if seen by TAF).
180    o pkg/aim_v23:
181      - write/read the expected CO2 pickups (from S/R AIM_DO_CO2): fix reading
182        when pickupSuff is set ; do write rolling pickups + at the end of the run.
183    o pkg/atm_ocn_coupler + ocn_compon_interf:
184      - in prep for using pkg/seaice Dyn in coupled set-up, implement sequential
185        coupling option-1: ATM -(cpl)-> OCN and then OCN -(cpl)-> ATM ;
186        add corresponding call in DO_OCEANIC_PHYS.
187    o coupler pkgs:
188      Start a new way to set-up optionally-exchanged variables (previously, only
189       there for exchange_DIC): switch on/off from 1 place, at run-time, in coupler
190       data.cpl (new) instead of at compile time in ATMIDS.h & OCNIDS.h ;
191       send switch to ATM & OCN compon before reading their own "data.cpl" (so that
192       compononent param default can be set accordingly).
193      Note: this new switch (cpl_exchange_[xxx]) is not a per variable switch
194       but rather applies to a group a fields (going both ways like for DIC)
195       and corresponds to an option of coupling config.
196      coupler (pkg/atm_ocn_coupler):
197      - change parameter file from "data" to "data.cpl" (in cpl_read_params.F),
198        and read namelist directly (without eessup S/R calls) instead of
199        in the very un-flexible old way, 1 param per line, in fixed order;
200      - add error-counter to track errors (e.g., missing "data.cpl") and to stop
201        cleanly in CPL_CHECK_CPLCONFIG
202      - add new coupling-exchange selectors (some not yet active) including
203        cpl_exchange_DIC (to set to 3 to replace atmCpl_exchange_DIC=T in ATMIDS.h
204                                             and ocnCpl_exchange_DIC=T in OCNIDS.h);
205      - add 2 new S/R (CPL_SEND_ATM/OCN_CPLPARMS) to send coupler-params to each
206        component ; called directly from coupler.F, after comp. registrations;
207      - rename few variable-ID names (in ATMIDS.h & OCNIDS.h):
208         atm/ocnSeaIceName --> atm/ocnSIceMassName ; atm/ocnFCO2Name ->
209          -> atm/ocnCO2FluxName ; atm/ocnWSpdName --> atm/ocnWindSpdName
210      components (pkg/atm_ & ocn_compon_interf):
211      - add ATM/OCN_CPL_OPTIONS.h in component pkgs and include the corresponding
212        CPP header file in all pkg source files.
213      - move checking of comp. configs out of cpl_exch_configs.F into new S/R
214        ATM/OCN_CHECK_CPLCONFIG;
215      - add error-counter to track errors (e.g., in "data.cpl") and to stop
216        cleanly in ATM/OCN_CHECK_CPLCONFIG;
217      - add new S/R CPL_IMPORT_CPLPARMS to import coupling-exchange selectors
218        from coupler ; called from initialise_fixed.F, after PACKAGES_BOOT and
219        before PACKAGES_READPARMS;
220      verification/cpl_aim+ocn/:
221      - update ATMIDS.h & OCNIDS.h (in shared_code) and use new parameter file
222        "data.cpl" for coupler (in input_cpl).
223    o eesupp/inc:
224      - change the MPI-global-sum default (in CPP_EEOPTIONS.h) to:
225        #define GLOBAL_SUM_ORDER_TILES (only affects MPI built of global_sum_tile.F)
226        to always cumulate tile local-sum in the same order (still uses
227        MPI_Allreduce like standard code).
228      - in verification experiment code, remove local CPP_EEOPTIONS.h_mpi files
229        that are now identical to standard version (in eesupp/inc).
230    o pkg/shelfice:
231      - add SHELFICETransCoeffTFile for initializing spatially varying
232        heat and salt transfer coefficients
233    o pkg/atm_compon_interf & ocn_compon_interf:
234      - combine into 1 (new) S/R CPL_EXPORT_IMPORT_DATA the two previous
235        S/R CPL_EXPORT_MY_DATA & CPL_IMPORT_EXTERNAL_DATA
236      - move bi,bj loops inside S/R OCN_STORE_MY_DATA
237    o pkg/atm_ocn_coupler:
238      - initialise to zero ATMVARS.h & OCNVARS.h arrays.
239    o pkg/rbcs:
240      - select RBCS-mask for Temp & Salt the same way as for pTracer ; this allows
241        to compile with maskLEN=1 when all tracers use the same RBCS-mask.
242      - add a short report (to STDOUT) about RBCS-mask settings.
243    
244    checkpoint65p (2015/10/23)
245    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp.F: fix store directives and key computations, since
246        there is no adjoint test for EVP, we don't know what it does to the adjoint
247        solution, but at least there are no more recomputation warnings left
248    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp.F: slight modification of averaging so that EVP stands
249        a chance of giving the same results as a fully converged VP (JFNK) solver
250    o tools/adjoint_options/adjoint_diva:
251      - fix bug (typo) in Tang-Linear FLAGS setting for MPI + DIVA
252    o pkg/streamice:
253      - spotted bug in streamice_driving_stress using dyG where should have been dxG
254    o pkg/exf:
255      - remove STOP statement that prevented to use wind or (wind-)stress
256        interpolation for constant-in-time forcing fields (wind/stress period = 0).
257    o pkg/seaice:
258      - replace SEAICE_EVP_USE_ADAPTATION by run time parameters, requires
259        5 additionals 2D fields and 6 new store directives
260      - change logic in seaice_readparms.F: EVP code can now be turned on in
261        various ways, setting SEAICE_deltaTev is no longer required,
262        alternatively set SEAICE_evpAlpha/Beta, SEAICEuseEVPstar, SEAICEuseEVPrev,
263        or SEAICEaEVPcoeff
264    o pkg/shelfice/shelfice_thermodynamics.F
265      - redefining uLoc/vLoc to u/v, instead of 2u/v
266    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp.F: introduce "adaptive EVP" by Madlen Kimmritz
267      - this is an intermediate state of a truely converging EVP that has
268        the potential of outperforming implicit VP methods, I do not recommend
269        using it yet.
270      - for now, "adaptive EVP" is turned on by setting SEAICE_EVP_USE_ADAPTATION
271        and all parameters are hardwired
272      - for convergence it still requires very smooth regularisations, that means,
273        if SEAICE_DELTA_SMOOTHREG is defined, deltaCreg=deltaC+deltaMin, which is
274        different from the VP case with deltaCreg=sqrt(deltaC**2+deltaMin**2); also
275        specific averaging appears to be required, still subject to tuning
276      - still needs cleaning and I need to turn parameter into runtime parameters
277      - add code to compute and print residuals of iteration, compile with
278        defining ALLOW_SEAICE_EVP_RESIDUAL to enable it
279    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp.F: fix a bug (factor of four in front of e12Csq)
280      that entered with r1.54 on Sep04, 2015, -> update results
281    
282    checkpoint65o (2015/09/14)
283    o pkg/mom_vecinv & mom_common:
284      - add deep-atmosphere geometry factor in mom_calc_visc.F + in routines
285        called from there.
286      - add anelastic and deep-atmosphere geometry factor in pkg/mom_vecinv ; this
287        allows to use Vector-Invariant form in deep atmos and anelastic formulation
288    o pkg/seaice: introduce fast ice parameterisation following Itkin et al. (2015)
289      and Koenig-Beatty+Holland (2012)
290      - two new parameters SEAICE_tensilFac and SEAICE_tensilDepth
291      - global 2D field tensileStrength, computed in seaice_calc_ice_strength
292      - requires an extra input argument for S/R seaice_calc_viscosities
293      - tensileStrength's depth dependence is different from Itkin et al. (2015)
294        (to be changed and played with, for now exponential)
295    o pkg/seaice: introduce new parameter SEAICEscaleSurfStress (default = .FALSE.)
296      - if TRUE scale ice-ocean and ice-atmosphere stress acting on sea ice
297        by AREA according to Connelly et al. (2004), JPO.
298      - For EVP and the LSR solver, the implicit part of the drag term is
299        the only non-zero term in the denominator when there is no ice (which
300        prevented running the model with zero ice-ocean drag). If
301        SEAICEscaleSurfStress = .TRUE., this results in a division by zero
302        (or zero main diagonals BU/BV) which need to be caught. A practical
303        consequence is that for open water, the momentum equation reduce
304        to trivially 0 = 0 + 0 (for EVP). For LSR, BU/BV are reset to 1, if
305        they happen to be zero, often leading to a non-zero solution over
306        open water.
307    o pkg/seaice: revise EVP code (seaice_evp.F) in preparation for a more
308        efficient EVP method.
309      - introduce area-weighted averages for e12 (analogously to
310        seaice_calc_viscosities.F); this totally changes lab_sea.hb87 (2 digits
311        remain, but also changing the order of terms in the previous average
312        changed the results as much) -> update experiment
313      - add SEAICE_DELTA_SMOOTHREG code
314      - disentangle computation of zetaC/deltaC and zetaZ/deltaZ, also for
315        TEM-code
316      - adjust loop bounds so that only required fields are computed
317      - add new averaging code for zetaZ/deltaZ (again similar to
318        seaice_calc_viscosities.F), inactive by default for now (will change
319        results again), but will replace old code eventually
320    o eesupp/src:
321      - add an other alternative for multi-proc GLOBAL_SUM (in global_sum_tile.F)
322        to always cumulate tile local-sum in the same order
323        (option #define GLOBAL_SUM_ORDER_TILES in CPP_EEOPTIONS.h).
324        Still uses MPI_Allreduce (like standard code) but on array of tiles
325        and should be faster than GLOBAL_SUM_SEND_RECV code.
326      - switch almost all verification experiments that use GLOBAL_SUM_SEND_RECV
327        (defined in CPP_EEOPTIONS.h_mpi) to GLOBAL_SUM_ORDER_TILES instead.
328      - add CPP_EEOPTIONS.h_mpi with GLOBAL_SUM_ORDER_TILES defined in 14 more exp.:
329         aim.5l_cs, cheapAML_box, deep_anelastic, dome, fizhi-cs-32x32x40,
330         fizhi-cs-aqualev20, fizhi-gridalt-hs, global_ocean_ebm, matrix_example,
331         natl_box, solid-body.cs-32x32x1, tutorial_advection_in_gyre,
332         tutorial_baroclinic_gyre and tutorial_held_suarez_cs.

334    checkpoint65n (2015/07/29)
335    o pkg/thsice:
336      - add a warning when used with pkg/aim but without updating SST
337        (stepFwd_oceMxL=F & useCoupler=F & tauRelax_MxL<>-1 ).
338    o pkg/offline:
339      - change where Offline-Fields are loaded, from load_fields_driver.F to
340        directly within FORWARD_STEP, just after updating iter number and time;
341      - move setting of GM and KPP diffusivity out of OFFLINE_FIELDS_LOAD into new
342        S/R OFFLINE_GET_DIFFUS that is called towards the end of DO_OCEANIC_PHYS;
343       These changes allow:
344        a) to recover exactly on-line results using deltaToffline=deltaTClock,
345        tested (using offlineIter0= nIter0 -1 and offlineTimeOffset= -deltaT/2)
346        both with Lin & Non-Lin Free-Surf, both with staggerTimeStep & synchronous
347        time-step, both with GM & KPP files and with recomputing these fields;
348        b) no needs to switch on staggerTimeStep anymore;
349        c) simplify rescaling of offline horiz. velocity with Non-Lin Free-Surf.
350      - update output of experiment tutorial_dic_adjoffline (only 3 digits left).
351    o pkg/offline:
352      - change (rarely used) offset-iteration parameter to an offset time (in s):
353        can easily recover previous offset-iter effect by setting offset-time
354        (offlineTimeOffset) to offset-iter x deltaToffline;
355      - do not turn-off Temp & Salinity surface relaxation when using KPP (used
356        in KPP as part of surface buoyancy forcing) in offline run.
357      - fix ptracers KPP non-local term in the case where KPP is re-computed.
358    o OpenAD
359      - Adding preliminary ggl90 test to OpenAD verification.
360        Config. with ggl90 currently diverges after 64 time steps
361        so will need more work to become more stable
362      - Adding preliminary kpp test to OpenAD verification.
363        required small tweakes in kpp_routines.F
364      - Merge and update from Krishna Narayanan's contrib area:
365        * Add one variable for preliminary OpenAD DIVA
366        * Add replacement time-stepping for OpenAD DIVA
367        * genmake2 flag -diva (but only for OpenAD; preliminary)
368        * required modifs for OAD_support
369        successful preliminary test for tutorial_global_oce_biogeo/
370    o pkg/seaice:
371      - initialise deltaC in seaice_lsr, cosmetic changes in seaice_lsr
372      - add cpp-flag SEAICE_DELTA_SMOOTHREG for option of regularising
373        delta with a smooth function in s/r seaice_calc_viscosity
374        (no effect on EVP)
375      - rename local suffix "sqr" into "sq" for more consistent variable names
376    o pkg/seaice:
377        add new parameter SEAICE_deltaMin that is used ***only***
378        for regularizing Delta (and nothing else, like the parameter
379        which is also used for all sorts of things SEAICE_EPS).
380        Defaults to SEAICE_EPS for backward compatibility only.
381    o pkg/seaice: replace erroneously storing e12Csqr on the wrong tape with
382        the wrong key by inialising it before use -> fixes a recomputation
383        problem but does not fix the gradient
384    o pkg/layers:
385      - move resetting of flux arrays to outside the iLa loop
386        (this caused layers_diapycnal to not work with more than one layer coord.)
387      - fix bug in calculation of layers_recip_delta in layers_init_fixed.F
388    o pkg/layers:
389      - remove from common block 3D layers fields (used to diagnose transport
390        in tracer coords) and declare them as local arrays in layers_calc.F
391    o pkg/seaice:
392      - Rename SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA to SEAICE_LSR_ZEBRA and define it
393        in lab_sea forward experiment (changes results -> updated)
394      - update adjoint experiment lab_sea after cleaning up seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
395    o pkg/seaice: modify seaice_lsr.F in order to improve the gradient
396       computations; for SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR
397      - move the loops over which the tridiagonal solvers (seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v)
398        sweep to the outside,
399      - remove store directives and add "CADJ loop sequential" directives
400        in analogy to model/src/solve_tridiagonal.F
401      - replace many "#ifdef SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA" by variable loop
402        boundaries to yield more readable code. This has also the charming side
403        effect that your can use SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA without
404        SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR (i.e. adjoint without recomputations in
405        seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v now requires either of these flags, vectorization
406        still requires SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR with SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA as
407        an additional option)
408       The tridiagonal solvers are now completely analoguous to solve_tridiagonal.F
409       but the adjoint gradients (which are affected by this change) still explode.
410    o coupler (atm & ocn _compon_interf):
411      - avoid using Exch2 IO mapping if not suitable.
412    
413    checkpoint65m (2015/06/15)
414    o pkg/layers:
415      - clean-up old parameters setting (from Sep 2012):
416        + remove old parameters setting from common block (declared locally);
417        + stop if any old parameter is mixed with new parameters;
418        + check for valid or consistent parameter setting (e.g., layers_name)
419      - check that layers_bounds for Pot.Density are in the right range;
420        this is supposed to catch un-updated setting after recently shifting
421        potential density field "prho" by -1000 (now in "sigma" scale).
422    o pkg/layers:
423      - Added missing call to layers_fill for keeping track of tottend in
424        pkg/diagnostics/diagnostics_fill_state.F
425    o pkg/layers:
426      - added CPP flux LAYERS_FINEGRID_DIAPYCNAL to disable fine-grid binning
427        of diapycnal fluxes
428    o pkg/layers:
429      - reverted changes to interpolation to previous treatment; there
430        was never actually a problem
431    o pkg/layers:
432      - fix interpolation of layers tracers in the presence of partial cells
433      - add lots of new functionality to compute water mass transformation
434        (enabled by CPP flag LAYERS_THERMODYNAMICS)
435      - add new calls from main code (diags_oceanic_surf_flux.F,
436        thermodynamics.F, impldiff.F) and gad to save the necessary fields
437        for layers_thermodynamics calculations
438    o pkg/ptracers:
439      - add capability of stepping a passive tracer forward without advection
440        by setting PTRACERS_advScheme to 0.
441    o pkg/diagnostics:
442      - add few (threads) _BARRIER around any update of "diag_pkgStatus".
443    o pkg/layers:
444      - shift potential density field "prho" by -1000 for density layer averaging so
445        that it corresponds to usual "sigma" definition (i.e., rho(p=const)-1000);
446        Note that density bin boundaries (layers_bounds in data.layers) have
447        to be set accordingly (i.e., shifted, in sigma scale).
448    o pkg/layers:
449      - fix snap-shot output of layer thickness @ V.pt and output of pot.density
450      - fix calculation of layer non-weighted velocity and layer probability
451      - add diagnostics for pot.density used for layer averaging
452    o pkg/seaice:
453      - seaice_calc_viscosity.F: change computation of deltaC**2 to ensure
454        positiveness, modify a few comments and improve variable names,
455      - the changed computation of deltaC affects most seaice-related
456        experiments at the truncation level.
457        seaice_itd.thermo is affected by far the most, with
458        only 7 digits of agreement remaining; update experiments.
459    
460    checkpoint65l (2015/05/04)
461    o pkg/shelfice:
462      - in shelfice_thermodynamics.F, if SHELFICEBoundaryLayer=.true., then set
463        factor drKp1 to zero where it is negative (ie. do not use
464        SHELFICEBoundaryLayer if hFacC>1)
465      - the same for factor drLoc in shelfice_forcing.F
466    o tools/genmake2: move FEXTRAFLAGS from FFLAGS to FOPTIM to avoid a problem
467        with modules in ptracers, when using testreport option "-small_f"
468    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F (in case of SEAICE_ITD)
469      - replace tmpscal1**1.36 by faster exp(1.36*log(tmpscal1))
470    o verification/testreport
471      - add new option -small_f
472        with this option testreport first makes the target small_f (*.f files)
473        before running make (all). This is useful for explicit inlining when
474        all sources need to be full available.
475    o pkg/exf/exf_interp.F:
476        remove previous changes related to reverse (decreasing) input grids latitude
477    
478    checkpoint65k (2015/04/01)
479    o pkg/ecco:
480        fix missing cosphi initialization; use eccoiter in place of optimcycle;
481        if autodiff is not compiled then use READ_REC_XY_RL/READ_REC_XYZ_RL
482        instead of active read/write
483    o pkg/ctrl:
484        if autodiff is not compiled then use READ_REC_XY_RL/READ_REC_XYZ_RL
485        instead of active read/write.
486    o pkg/autodiff: make autodiff_readparms.F and autodiff_whtapeio_sync.F
487        return if .NOT.useAUTODIFF
488    o pkg/seaice: add CPP brackets (cost function related).
489    o model/src:
490        add useAUTODIFF run time switch.
491    o pkg/exf/exf_interp.F:
492        add code to allow input grids with latitude starting in the north (i.e. when
493        j=1 corresponds to northern edge of field); modify global_with_exf to test
494        this feature.
495    o verification/testreport:
496      - replace "grep -A3" with POSIX conformal sed command, because there are
497        implementations of grep that cannot do contextual searches
498      - replace "cat -n" by "nl" (two occurrences), because not all implementations
499        of "cat" have the option "-n"
500    o model/src:
501        add new file gsw_teos10.F that contains 3 functions, more or less a copy
502        of the gsw_toolbox.f90 of the TEOS-10 fortran interface, that are used to
503        convert from conservative to potential temperature. For now they are not
504        called anywhere.
505    o pkg/ggl90: make "useIDEMIX" useful
506      - re-organize code in s/r ggl90_calc a little to move computations that
507        are different for idemix into separate loops (changes verification
508        experiment idemix at truncation level, 12 digits remain -> updated)
509      - requires 2 new 2D fields KappaM, verticalShear
510      - make hFacI and recip_hFacI local 3D variables that are passed to
511        s/r ggl90_idemix
512      - fix and improve some comments
513    
514    checkpoint65j (2015/02/25)
515    o pkg/openad
516      - synchronize seawater.F with version in model/src: replace routine
517        body of sw_temp by calling sw_ptmp and fix/add a few comments.
518    o pkg/mnc:
519      - change default value of pickup_read/write_mnc params to FALSE
520        (since few features are missing in reading MNC pickup files).
521    o model/src:
522      - change default (background) vertical diffusivity for salt to be the
523        temperature (background) vertical diffusivity.
524      - change background vertical diffusivity in vertical mixing pkgs ggl90,
525        kl10, my82 and pp81 from temperature diffusivity to salinity diffusivity.
526        This makes ptracers default diffusivity (that uses salt diffKr) more
527        consistent with vertical mixing schemes.
528    o verification/testreport:
529      - fix typo in "-pcls" option ;
530      - put temp files in /tmp (instead of in local dir)
531      - add option "-ncad" to use genmake2 new option "-nocat4ad"
532      - allow to use "-j" option (for multi-procs make) for AD, OAD and TLM.
533    o pkg/ggl90 (idemix code):
534      - apply few fixes ; add some missing "_d 0" ; update output of exp.
535        global_ocean.90x40x15.idemix
536    o OpenAD
537      - enable active file I/O and begin removal of work-around code
538        for OpenAD for handling control variables (memory vs. active files)
539      - new CPP options file OPENAD_OPTIONS.h
540      - revert to genarr2d gradient check for hs94.1x64x5
541      - (genarr3d tested by tutorial_global_oce_biogeo, tutorial_tracer_adjsens)
542      - gentim2d works for halfpipe_streamice but not yet hs94.1x64x5
543    o tools/genmake2:
544      - add option for an alternative Makefile (from Martin) where multiple
545        source files are sent to TAF (instead of all in one file).
546    o pkg/ggl90: add IDEMIX (Olbers and Eden, 2013)
547      - code provided by Carsten Eden as an extension of ggl90
548      - so far the code is turned on within ggl90 by setting a CPP-flag at
549        compile time; a runtime flag implementation is not yet complete
550      - tested in new verification experiment global_ocean.90x40x15.idemix
551    o verification:
552      - reduce length of the AD test run by half for experiments
553        global_ocean.cs32x15 (std + thsice) and isomip
554      - enable active file I/O for OpenAD, adjust verifications accordingly
555      - halfpipe_streamice: change gradient check from genarr2d to gentim2d
556    o verification/testreport:
557      - fix two non-POSIX sed statements so that there are no error messages
558        on Mac OS X
559      - replace hostname -s with hostname | sed 's/\..*$//'
560    o model/src/seawater.F:
561      - simplify SW_TEMP to just calling SW_PTMP with P and PR exchanged
562        (following the matlab code), which would have avoided the bug caught
563        by Matt (see below) in the first place
564    o pkg/shelfice:
565      - implement alternative discretisation of quadratic drag (selectBotDragQuadr)
566        and true distance in no-slip BC (bottomVisc_pCell) similar to bottom-drag.
567      - fix sign of friction tendency (no-slip BC) and fix u,v drag for thin
568        ice-shelf case (i.e., within surface level).
569      - add config summary in shelfice_check.F
570      - remove global variable recip_SHELFICElatentHeat and replace by a local
571        variable recip_latentHeat
572      - introduce diagnostics for friction velocity uStar (in case of
573        SHELFICEuseGammaFrict)
574      - change verification experiment isomip.htd:
575        + start from pickup (as input_ad at nIter0=8640)
576        + start from SHELFICEmassFile instead of SHELFICEloadAnomaly file
577        + test SHELFICEuseGammaFrict = .TRUE.
578        + test SHELFICEadvDiffHeatFlux = .TRUE.
579    o model/src:
580      - fix bug (Thanks to Matt) in function SW_TEMP (to convert Pot.Temp to
581        in-situ Temp) and in routine SW_TEMP (in pkg/openad);
582        update output of experiments global_with_exf.yearly and isomip (all 6).
583    o pkg/shelfice:
584      - change setting of kTopC to also be zero where there is no ice-shelf.
585      - zero out surface forcing arrays (for now, for T & S + EmPmR) where
586        ice-shelf is.
587      - first attempt to get RealFreshWaterFlux effects: for now, only without
588        SHELFICEboundaryLayer ; not consistent if using synchronous time-stepping.
589    o pkg/seaice: add the option to prescribe a fixed thickness PDF
590      for thermodynamic calculations
591      - because of divisions of the type 7/7 not exactly equal to 1, this change
592        affects results of some verification experiments by up to 4 digits:
593        global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice, lab_sea, lab_sea.fd, lab_sea.salt_plume,
594        seaice_obcs, seaice_obcs.seaiceSponge, seaice_obcs.tides
595        adjoint: lab_sea, lab_sea.noseaicedyn
596        -> updated
597    
598    checkpoint65i (2015/01/23)
599    o model/src:
600      - change units of frictionHeating field from W to W/m^2
601      - fix bug in frictional heating from stratospheric drag in
602        S/R ATM_PHYS_TENDENCY_APPLY_V
603      - with synchronous time-stepping: move resetting to zero of frictionHeating
604        field from load_fields_driver.F to thermodynamics.F ;
605      - add diagnostics for frictional heating.
606    o model/src & gmredi K3D:
607      - add frictionHeating field to pickup-files (for synchronous time-stepping)
608      - move ALLOW_EDDYPSI block out of DYNVARS.h and merge it into FFIELDS.h
609      - rename uMean,vMean --> uEulerMean,vEulerMean (+ change diagnostics name
610        and name in pickup file).
611      - fix arguments of few DIAGNOSTICS_FILL calls in gmredi_k3d.F
612    o model/src:
613      - move (from ini_forcing.F) initialisation of all arrays in header file
614        FFIELDS.h into new S/R ini_ffields.F ; this fix broken restart
615        (since Nov 2012) with option selectAddFluid=1.
616    o pkg/shelfice:
617      - change units (+ document) of newly added field "shelfIceMassDynTendency"
618      - upgrade from _RS to _RL shelficeMass & shelficeLoadAnomaly arrays.
619    o pkg/obcs: re-organize obcs_calc_stevens.F to prepare for passive tracers
620    o pkg/seaice: two new runtime parameters:
621      - SEAICE_cStar replaces the hard wired "20" in the strength formulation,
622        long overdue
623      - SEAICE_tensilFac: preparation for Koenig-Beatty+Holland (2012)
624        parameterization of tensil stress for fast ice (does not do anything yet)
625    o pkg/seaice/seaice_check.F: left over from restricted addtive Schwarz method
626        for LSR: move checking overlaps out of JFNK-if-block
627    o pkg/atm_phys:
628      - move copy of grid and dynamical fields out of atm_phys_driver.F into
629        new S/R ATM_PHYS_DYN2PHYS.
630      - fix level height for Linear Free-Surf case (to be consistent with
631        fixed-in-time pressure levels).
632    o pkg/mom_common (bottomdrag):
633      - average bottomDragFld (ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG_CONTROL) from grid-cell center
634        to correct location (U & V point) in S/R MOM_U/V_BOTTOMDRAG;
635        update output (adm & tlm) of experiment global_ocean.90x40x15.bottomdrag.
636    o pkg/shelfice (u/v_drag):
637      - add one argument (the other velocity component) to S/R SHELFICE_U/V_DRAG;
638      - use SHELFICEDragLinear & SHELFICEDragQuadratic in shelfice_v_drag.F
639        (now similar to shelfice_u_drag.F)
640      - remove condition on bottomDragTerms when calling SHELFICE_U/V_DRAG
641        from mom_vecinv.F (similar to mom_fluxform calls).
642    o pkg/mom_common (bottomdrag):
643      - add one argument (the other velocity component) to S/R MOM_U/V_BOTTOMDRAG;
644      - add options for alternative discretisation of velocity norm in quadratic
645        bottom drag: averaging of grid-cell-center KE to U.point and V.point
646        (selectBotDragQuadr=0, original code) can produce noisy patterns; this
647        improves when averaging only the other component (e.g. vVel for U bottom
648        drag) using wet-point method (selectBotDragQuadr=2) or not (=1).
649      - add options (bottomVisc_pCell) to account for partial-cell in bottom
650        friction (no-slip BC) thus getting the true distance from the bottom;
651        off by default since this also reduces model stability (explicit bottom
652        friction). Changes produce different machine truncation with linear-drag
653        + no-slip BC: update output of experiments exp4.stevens (10 digits) and
654        front_relax (bvp & mxl, 10 & 11 digits).
655    o model/src & mom pkgs:
656      - add one more level to vertical viscosity local arrays (Nr+1, previously Nr)
657        since no-slip bottom BC uses viscosity @ k+1 to update velocity @ level k
658      - for now and until vertical mixing scheme are updated to fill up level Nr+1,
659        just copy level Nr value to level Nr+1.
660    o doc:
661      - add notes form Abhisek Chakraborty on how to close Heat & Salt budgets.
662    o pkg/streamice:
663      - shelfice_init_varia.F, shelfice_init_fixed.F, shelfice_readparms.F,
664        SHELFICE.h: move array shelficemass to init_varia, initialise
665        from array shelficemassinit, which is set in init_fixed and
666        has option to be set from file; introduce array
667        shelficeMassDynTend array, set thru file in init_fixed
668      - NEW FILE: shelfice_step_icemass.F: update shelficemass from either
669        shelfIceFreshWaterFlux and shelficeMassDynTend or H_streamice in
670        pkg/streamice
671      - shelfice_thermodynamics.F: call shelfice_step_icemass if
672        SHELFICEMassStepping = .true.
673      - shelfice_ad_diff.list: add new subroutine shelfice_step_icemass.f
674    
675    checkpoint65h (2014/12/17)
676    o verification/global_ocean.90x40x15, global_ocean_ebm:
677      - update to generic controls.
678    o pkg/ctrl:
679      - ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F: test for igen>0
680      - ctrl_init_variables.F: add call to CTRL_MAP_INI_GENTIM2D.
681      - move gentim2d part of ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F to
682        new separate routine : ctrl_map_ini_gentim2d.F
683      - ctrl_cost_driver.F,ctrl_init.F ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F:
684        add time variable weights and cyclic controls (time mean,
685        seasonal cycle, etc) capabilities to gentim2d
686    o pkg/ecco:
687      - move reading of error, conversion to weights from
688        ecco_cost_init_fixed.F to ecco_toolbox.F (ecco_readwei)
689    o global_oce_llc90, cs32:
690      - activte sbo.
691      - CTRL_SIZE.h : add maxCtrlProc.
692      - activate the new genctrl capabilities.
693      - update following reorganization of global_oce_input_fields.tar.gz  
694    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_ad_diff.list:
695      - add missing ctrl_init_rec.f
696    o tools/OAD_support/keepOriginal:
697      - add ctrl_init_rec.F
698    o model/src/the_main_loop.F, pkg/ctrl/ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F:
699      - avoid recomputations of xx_gentim2d_dummy.
700    o momentum diagnostics:
701      - move filling of diagnostics Um_Diss & Vm_Diss from mom_fluxform.F and
702        mom_vecinv.F to timestep.F (to include Smag-3D contribution).
703    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F:
704      - fix computation of BU/BV, make sure they are non-zero, only necessary
705        for cubed sphere exchanges and SEAICE_OLx/y>0.
706        This makes calling s/r fill_cs_corner_rl obsolete (removed).
707    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.seaice
708      - add test for strong implicit coupling and restricted addtive Schwarz
709        methods for LSR
710      - update results/output.seaice.txt
711    o verification/tutorial_global_oce_biogeo:
712      - AD & OAD set-up: switch off ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX (like in fwd set-up)
713        and set PTRACERS_EvPrRn(1,2) to zero (for DIC & ALK);
714        update output_adm,_oadm,_tlm.txt
715    o pkg/dic:
716      - change default to "#undef ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX" in DIC_OPTIONS.h
717      - add a stop when ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX is defined and PTRACERS_EvPrRn
718        for tracer 1 & 2 is set (to avoid double counting of dilution effect).
719    o verification/tutorial_global_oce_biogeo:
720      - AD & OAD set-up: do not set PTRACERS_EvPrRn for tracer 1 & 2 since
721        dilution is already added by pkg/dic ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX ;
722        update output_adm,_oadm,_tlm.txt
723    o eesupp/src:
724      - add fill_cs_corner_rl.F (_RL-copy of fill_cs_corner_rs.F)
725        and call it in seaice_lsr when using nonzero SEAICE_OLx/y
726    o pkg/seaice: introduce strongly implicit coupling, intended for stabilizing
727      LSR (following Hutchings et al. 2004)
728      - introduce zetaZ as a global variable (requires adjustments in
729        seaice_evp.F and seaice_jfnk.F) and compute analoguously to etaZ
730        in seaice_calc_viscosities.F
731      - new flag SEAICEuseStrImpCpl (default off)
732      - add new terms zetaZ*du/dy and zetaZ*dv/dx on both sides of the
733        momentum equations
734      - JFNK-solver (preconditioner) adjusted to allow using this method
735        (where it does not have any positive effect)
736    o pkg/seaice
737      - add overlap for restrictive additive Schwartz method also to LSR, but
738        turn it off by default (because it only seems to work for non-cubed
739        sphere/llc topologies)
740    o pkg/autodiff
741      - add extra exchanges in addummy_in_steppging also for mnc output
742    o pkg/seaice:
743      - add extra exchanges before dumping adjoint fields in seaice_ad_dump.F
744        to avoid stripes in the adjoint output (similar to addummy_in_stepping.F)
745    o pkg/obcs:
746      - add option to specify domain-connected piece Id along OB though files
747        (for now, only used to diagnose PhiVel; default =1 -> global correction)
748      - modify obcs_diag_balance.F to process each connected-part separately;
749        exclude OB where Id = 0 but keep the full divergence there (-> constant
750        Psi along this portion of OB and all inflow derived from grad(Phi))
751      - add example of OB-conect files in verification/so_box_biogeo/input.
752    o pkg/diagnostics:
753      - improve treatment of Open-Boundaries in Velocity-Potential calculation:
754      a) use non zero matrix element across OB and solve for Phi 1 grid point
755         outside OB (i.e, where tracer OBCS are applied).
756      b) global imbalance of inFlow/outFlow across OB: instead of modifying
757         velocity across OB, spread it uniformly along the OB in the RHS.
758    
759    checkpoint65g (2014/11/19)
760    o pkg/diagnostcis:
761      - add preconditioner off-diagonal factor (diagCG_pcOffDFac) as run-time param
762    o pkg/my82,pp81,kl10:
763      - fix ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR implementation (previously had no effect): use 3-D
764        field diffKr as background diffusivity to set minimum diffusivity value.
765    o pkg/seaice:
766      - add new parameter SEAICEuseEVPrev (for revisited EVP by
767        Bouillon et al 2013)
768      - add SEAICE_evpAlpha/Beta to namelist
769      - modify seaice_evp code to able to use SEAICEuseEVPrev. These changes
770        involve trivial re-ordering of divisions/multiplications that should not
771        have any effects, but ... they do change the results of lab_sea.hb87 so
772        that only 2 digits of agreement remain, in line with the general
773        instability/fragility of the evp-code. For now, I do not care and just
774        update the verification experiment
775    o pkg/ctrl : add generic pre-processing (xx_genarr2d_preproc etc)
776      - remove xx_genarr2d_numsmooth etc
777      - use xx_genarr2d_preproc etc instead
778      - carry out smooth_correl2D at initialization stage rather than during
779        time stepping.
780      - get smoothOpNb from xx_gentim2d_preproc
781    o global_oce_cs32 :
782      - add test of generic ecco capabilities.
783    o pkg/exf/exf_getsurfacefluxes.F :
784      - add to tmpUE/tmpVN rather than re-initializing them (conventional behavior).
785    o pkg/ctrl,ecco :
786      - omit un-necessary arguments to ctrl_cost_gen.F unless ECCO_CTRL_DEPRECATED
787        is defined.
788    o pkg/seaice: add diagnostics for Delta (deformation parameter)
789    o model/src:
790      - when ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR is defined, add a Warning if any of the vertical
791        diffusivity (background) is specified but ignored.
792    o verification:
793      - in testreport, convert hostname to lower case for default output dir name
794    o model, pkg : add useCTRL, useECCO parameters (on/off run time switch).
795    o pkg/dic: add modifications from Hajoon:
796      - add iron sedimentation flux function of the flux of PO4 out of bottom layer
797      - light attenuation: add self-shading effect by climatological Chlorophyll
798        (read from file).
799    o pkg/seaice/seaice_preconditioner.F : fix cpp flags, so that code also
800        compiles when SEAICE_ALLOW_DYNAMICS is undefined
801    o global_oce_llc90,cs32 : ecco_v4 verification exps now use separate
802        AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, CTRL_OPTIONS.h, ECCO_OPTIONS.h rather than
803        ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h (i.e. replacing the deprecated, circumvoluted,
804        approach where CPP_OPTIONS.h includes an omnipotent
805        ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h that superseeds pkgs '_OPTIONS.h').
806    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F : include GMREDI_OPTIONS.h where
807        ALLOW_3D_KAPGM, ALLOW_3D_KAPREDI (to be added later) belong.
808    o pkg/seaice/SEAICE_SIZE.h : replace ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC with ALLOW_AUTODIFF
809        to avoid needing AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h anytime SEAICE_SIZE.h is included
810        (it seems that THSICE_SIZE.h, PTRACERS_SIZE.h have the same issue...)
811    o model/src, pkg/smooth, profiles, salt_plume, seaice, exf, ecco, ctrl :
812      add ECCO_OPTIONS.h, AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, CTRL_OPTIONS.h when needed
813      - ECCO_OPTIONS.h is needed when including ecco_cost.h, ecco.h
814      - AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h is needed when including tamc.h, tamc_keys.h
815      - CTRL_OPTIONS.h is needed when including ctrl.h, optim.h, etc
816    o pkg/ctrl,ecco,exf :
817      - remove variables associated with NON-generic costs,
818        unless ECCO_CTRL_DEPRECATED is defined.
819      - remove NON-generic NON-obcs controls,
820        unless ECCO_CTRL_DEPRECATED is defined.
821    o pkg/ctrl : added ctrl_local_params.h
822    o pkg/ecco : added ecco_local_params.h
823    o verification : added ECCO_CTRL_DEPRECATED to most as and oad
824        experiments, which will progressively be removed once the
825        experiments are revised to use only generic controls/costs.
826    
827    checkpoint65f (2014/10/13)
828    o pkg/ctrl, ecco, seaice : minor changes in headers
829    o global_oce_llc90,cs32 : ecco_v4 verification exps now test generic
830        cost function and control capabilities added since checkpoint65c.

832    o pkg/ecco: increase modularity and improve logic
833      - ecco_toolbox.F (new) : basic operations that are often used,
834        including ecco_zero, ecco_cp, ecco_cprsrl, ecco_diffmsk,
835        ecco_addcost, ecco_add, ecco_div, ecco_readbar.
836      - cost_gencal.F (new) : determine filnames and records.
837      - cost_genread.F, cost_generic.F : condense code using ecco_toolbox.
838      - cost_generic.F : use spzeroloc rather than hard-coded -9999,
839        and exploit the above functions leading to more compact code.
840      - cost_genread.F : rm un-necessary arguments, re-arrange args order.
841      - ecco_check.F, ecco_readparms.F : bring logic up to date (using_tpj,
842        using_ers, using_gfo, using_mdt is now only defined within gencost)
843    o pkg/ecco: extend generic cost capabilities
844      - pkg/ecco : added 3D gencost (ALLOW_GENCOST3D), added gencost
845        capabilities via gencost_preproc (+ _c,_i,_r related params),
846        gencost_posproc (+ _c,_i,_r related params), gencost_nrecperiod,
847        gencost_outputlevel arguments to cost_generic
848      - pkg/ecco/cost_genread.F (new) : interface between cost_generic
849        and active_read, making room for gencost_preproc to take effect.
850        Added preproc code ('climmon') to replace GENERIC_BAR_MONTH.
851      - pkg/ecco/cost_generic.F :
852        compute and store misfit maks*(model-data) in localdif that is
853        then used in cost and for output, output misfit if outlev.GT.0
854      - pkg/ecco/cost_averagesfields.F : depend on gencost_barskip
855        rather gencost_barfile for deciding whether to write barfile
856      - pkg/ecco/ecco_cost_driver.F : extract call to cost_profiles from cost_hyd
857      - pkg/ecco/ecco_cost_init_fixed.F : extract gencost weights from
858        ecco_cost_weights, re-activate ecco_summary, determine gencost_barskip
859      - pkg/ecco/ecco_summary.F : report gencost variables
860      - pkg/ecco/cost_gencost_customize.F : treat case of scatterometer costs
861    o pkg/sea/SEAICE_OPTIONS.h : add ALLOW_COST_ICE, ALLOW_SEAICE_COST_SMR_AREA
862    o pkg/ecco: internal re-organization
863      - resolve un-necessary dependancies within pkg/ecco and to pkg/ctrl
864        (rm includes of optim.h and ctrl.h, replace optimcycle with eccoiter,
865        mv relevant variables definition from ecco_cost.h to ecco.h,
866        make sure gencost routines only include ecco.h)
867      - throughout : add missing CCP switches, rm unused variables,
868        and rm un-necessary CPP switches
869      - throughout gencost routines : replace modelstartdate with
870        gencost_startdate when needed
871      - cost_bp_read.F : use arguments, instead of common blocs
872        so that it can be used also by (new) cost_gencost_bpv4.F
873      - ecco_init_varia.F : initialize RHOsumGlob_0, VOLsumGlob_0
874      - ecco_phys.F : compute etanFull
875      - ecco_readparms.F : rename using_topex as using_tpj, add
876        bpv4-grace to gencost list, initialize added parameters
877      - ecco_summary.F : include SIZE.h needed for augmented ecco.h
878    
879    checkpoint65e (2014/09/28)
880    o pkg/obcs:
881      - replaced the just-added CPP options with run-time variables
882        (see pkg/obcs/OBCS_PARAMS.h for details)
883    o pkg/obcs:
884      - add additional CPP options for sponge boundary layers
885        (see pkg/obcs/OBCS_OPTIONS.h for details)
886    o pkg/atm_phys:
887      - implement simple (obliquity only, assuming circular planet orbit)
888        seasonal cycle for incoming insolation ; used when run-time parameter
889        "select_incSW" is set to 1 ; by default (=0), uses old unchanged formula.
890    o pkg/exf, pkg/ecco, pkg/ctrl:
891      - add ctrlUseGen and .NOT.ctrlUseGen exclusive brackets
892      - activate gentim2d for xx_atemp,xx_aqh,xx_swdown,xx_lwdown,xx_precip
893      - implement gentim2d for xx_tauu, xx_tauv
894    o pkg/ctrl, pkg/ecco :
895      - fix and complement the generic controls implementation
896    o pkg/exf/exf_getclim.F, exf_getffields.F, exf_getsurfacefluxes.F,
897        pkg/shelfice/shelfice_thermodynamics.F,
898        verification/hs94.1x64x5/code_ad/ctrl_map_gentim2d.F,
899        verification/hs94.1x64x5/code_oad/ctrl_map_gentim2d.F :
900      - add weight in CTRL_GET_GEN calls
901    o pkg/ctrl :
902      - ctrl_get_gen.F : add weight as input parameter, and apply
903        it directly rather than using smooth_correl2Dw (to be retired).
904      - ctrl_map_gentim2d.F : add wgentim2d in CTRL_GET_GEN call
905    o pkg/ctrl :
906      - introduce run time switch ctrlUseGen (in ctrl.h, ctrl_check.F,
907        ctrl_init_variables.F, ctrl_readparms.F, ctrl_summary.F)
908      - re-activate ctrl_summary (call in ctrl_init.F)
909    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_cost_gen.F :
910      - fix CCP brackets, remove un-necessary myiter, mytime
911    o pkg/ecco, pkg/ctrl :

913      - remove cost_forcing_gen.F (now pkg/ctrl/ctrl_cost_gen2d.F)
914      - add ctrl_cost_driver.F (replaces pkg/ecco/cost_genctrl.F)
915      - add ctrl_cost_gen2d.F (replaces pkg/ecco/cost_forcing_gen.F)
916    
917    checkpoint65d (2014/09/15)
918    o pkg/ctrl/CTRL_GENARR.h, ctrl_readparms.F :
919      - add xx_genarr2d_bounds,xx_genarr3d_bounds,
920        xx_genarr2d_numsmooth, xx_genarr3d_numsmooth
921    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F :
922      - remove compilation failure
923      - replace hard coded example
924      - use ctrl_map_ini_gen2D, 3D
925    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_pack.F, ctrl_unpack.F :
926      - on/off switch based upon xx_genarr2d_weight,3d
927    o src/packages_init_variables.F :
928      - regroup pkg/estimation calls
929      - remove CTRL_MAP_INI, CTRL_MAP_INI_ECCO
930        (moved to ctrl_init_variables)
931    o cost/cost_init_varia.F :
932      - remove ecco_cost_init_varia
933        (moved to ecco_init_varia)
934    o ctrl/ctrl_init_variables.F :
935      - add CTRL_MAP_INI, CTRL_MAP_INI_ECCO
936      - add CTRL_MAP_INI_GENARR, SEAICE_CTRL_MAP_INI
937    o ctrl/ctrl_map_ini.F :
938      - remove ctrl_map_ini_genarr, seaice_ctrl_map_ini
939        (moved to ctrl_init_variables)
940    o ctrl/ctrl_map_ini_ecco.F :
941      - remove ECCO_PHYS (mv to ecco_init_varia)
942      - remove seaice_ctrl_map_ini (mv to ctrl_init_variables)
943    o ecco/ecco_ad_diff.list :
944      - add ecco_init_varia.f
945    o ecco/ecco_init_varia.F
946      - new routine
947    o pkg/streamice:
948      - move call to STREAMICE_INITIALIZE_PETSC from the_model_main.F
949        to streamice_init_fixed.F ; fix setting of STREAMICEisOn.
950      - from model/src, only call pkg/streamice routines if useStreamIce is TRUE.
951    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
952      - fix bug causing negatives in GAD_SMOLARKIEWICZ_HACK, introduced 8/8/2014.
953    o pkg/exf:
954      - exf_getffields.F : add xxg_atemp, xxg_aqh, xxg_swdown, xxg_lwdown,
955         xxg_precip capability
956      - exf_wind.F : no need for ALLOW_WSPEED_CONTROL cpp switch
957    o pkg/ctrl:
958      - ctrl_pack.F, ctrl_unpack.F : omit (un)packing of undefined xx_gentim2d
959    o model/src/load_fields_driver.F :
960      - move call to CTRL_MAP_GENTIM2D ahead of BULKF_FIELDS_LOAD, EXF_GETFORCING
961        so xx_gentim2d can be applied to e.g. exf fields in a timely manner.
962    o OpenAD verification experiments:
963      - Include explicitly AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, COST_OPTIONS.h, and CTRL_OPTIONS.h
964        in src files (to enable to skip the ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h);
965        for now, only in pkgs used in OpenAD verification experiments.
966      - Change all except one (halfpipe_streamice) OpenAD experiments to use pkg
967        specific option file (AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, COST_OPTIONS.h & CTRL_OPTIONS.h)
968        instead of using ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h (with all relevant options in it).
969        This applies to both TAF (*/code_ad/) and OpenAD (*/code_oad/) tests.
970    o OpenAD verification tests:
971      - finish removing ALLOW_AUTODIFF_OPENAD (replaced by ALLOW_OPENAD);
972      - finish replacing ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC by ALLOW_AUTODIFF (except for
973        tape/storage which are specific to TAF/TAMC) in pkgs used in OpenAD exp.
974      - leave ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC undef in OpenAD verification tests (*/code_oad/)
975        and remove local copy of "tamc.h" (needed only if ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC).
976    o model/src & generic_advdiff:
977      - change hard-coded loop-range in S/R APPLY_FORCING_T/S to set T & S
978        forcing over 0:sNx+1, 0:sNy=1 (instead of just 1:sNx,1:sNy): Model
979        dynamics requires valid tracer forcing only over tile interior but, for
980        some diagnostics, may need to extend it over 1 point in tile halo region.
981      - in gad_calc_rhs.F, update calls to gmredi_x/ytransport to get valid
982        tendency over i,j_Min,Max range. This allows to simplfy i,j_Min,Max
983        setting in temp/salt/ptracer_integrate.F
984    o pkg/dic:
985      - multiply tracer tendencies by maskInC (if ussing OBCS) before updating
986        gchem tracers: this allows to skip the 2nd call to OBCS_APPLY_PTRACER
987        in gchem_forcing_sep.F
988    o pkg/autodiff & obcs:
989      - add storage of current OB values for U & V (was already done for T & S).
990    
991    checkpoint65c (2014/08/30)
992    o pkg/dic:
993      - take out of dic_atmos.F the initialisation part (corresponding to istate=0)
994        and move it to new S/R DIC_INI_ATMOS ; also simplify the dependencies for
995        AD compilers (but still a Pb with multi-threading and Ajoint dependencies).
996    o verification:
997      - new experiment testing OBCS and DIC pkgs, using params & output from
998        tutorial_global_oce_biogeo but limited to a sub-domain around Drake
999        passage: take OBCS from the last year of a 2 yrs simulation and initial
1000        conditions from t=1.yr while keeping the same forcing.
1001    o model/src:
1002      - when allowFreezing=T, only reset below freezing initial Temp to Tfreezing
1003        (at any k) if checkIniTemp is not set to FALSE (default checkIniTemp=T).
1004    o pkg/diagnostics (Stats-Diags):
1005      - re-write S/R DIAGSTATS_CALC (more similar to TARGET_NEC_SX part) to:
1006        a) refine region where stats are computed, excluding where arrhFac=0 ;
1007        b) fix missing interior mask (use with OBCS) in 3-D fields statistics;
1008        c) extend regional stats over the region edges (for U or V pt location).
1009    o pkg/gchem:
1010      - add a (2nd) call to OBCS_APPLY_PTRACER in gchem_forcing_sep.F (needed since
1011        pkg/dic is currently changing/updating ptracers values beyond the OB).
1012    o verification (hs94):
1013      - convert Held & Suarez external_forcing.F (from hs94.cs, with Sigma-coords
1014        bits) to apply_forcing.F and undef USE_OLD_EXTERNAL_FORCING in experiments
1015        hs94.cs-32x32x5 and tutorial_held_suarez_cs ; also use the same version of
1016        apply_forcing.F in 2D hs94 (fwd, ad & oad) but keep LatLon hs94 unchanged.
1017    o pkg/ptracers:
1018      - implement Adams-Bashforth on pTracers (instead of on tracer tendency),
1019        switched on by setting PTRACERS_doAB_onGpTr=F (default set to doAB_onGtGs)
1020      - change exp4 secondary test (input.nlfs) to test AB on T & S & pTracer
1021        with AB-2 code (so that it get tested).
1022    o model/src:
1023      - allow to apply Adams-Bashforth on Temp & Salt (instead of on gT,gS)
1024        with AB-2 code (previously only available with AB-3 code).
1025        Also move the code (call to ADAMS_BASHFORTH S/R) form thermodynamics.F
1026        to temp/salt_integrate.F (since the 2nd part of gt/sNm1 update is done
1027        there, by calling CYCLE_AB_TRACER).
1028    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
1029      - change Tracer argument (drop bi,bj indices) in S/R GAD_CALC_RHS,
1030        GAD_C2_ADV_R, GAD_U3_ADV_R, GAD_C4_ADV_R, GAD_DIFF_R, GAD_BIHARM_R
1031        + also in GMREDI_X/Y/RTRANSPORT ; and update corresponding calls in
1032        S/R temp/salt/ptracers_integrate.F
1033    o model/src & pkg/ptracers:
1034      - remove common block variables gT,gS (in DYNVARS.h), except when
1035         USE_OLD_EXTERNAL_FORCING is defined; update TAF storage accordingly.
1036      - remove common block variable gPtr.
1037    o model/src & pkgs:
1038      - change gTracer (and/or tracer) argument (drop bi,bj indices) in S/R
1039         ADAMS_BASHFORTH(2&3), CYCLE_(AB_)TRACER, FREESURF_RESCALE_G,
1040         IMPLDIFF, SOLVE_TRIDIAGONAL & _PENTADIAGONAL, GAD_SOM_ADVECT,
1041         GAD_ADVECTION, GAD_CALC_RHS, GAD_IMPLICIT_R, TIMEAVE_CUMUL_DIF_1T
1042      + change accordingly all calling S/R.
1043      - use local temperature/salinity/ptracer tendency array (without bi,bj)
1044        in S/R temp/salt/ptracers_integrate.F
1045    o pkg/seaice:
1046      - move computation of stress contributions to rhsU/V in s/r seaice_lsr
1047        to separate s/r seaice_lsr_rhsu/v in order to be able to re-use code
1048      - make u/vIceC local variables if SEAICE_CGRID is defined only to be used
1049        in seaice_lsr
1050      - seaice_lsr.F: make local 4D arrays UXX, VYY, etc 2D
1051        in s/r seaice_lsr_calc_coeffs
1052    o pkg/mdsio:
1053      - in MDS_READ/WRITE_FIELD, stop if file-name (+prefix) is too long
1054        (e.g., > MAX_LEN_MBUF -90 ) or, in INI_MODEL_IO, if mdsioLocalDir is
1055        too long (e.g., > MAX_LEN_FNAM/2 )
1056    
1057    checkpoint65b (2014/08/12)
1058    o pkg/matrix:
1059      - pass, as argument, updated tracer field to S/R MATRIX_STORE_TENDENCY_EXP
1060    o model/src:
1061      - fix initialisation of geothermalFile; compile geothermal-flux code in
1062        natl_box verification experiment.
1063    o model/src & pkg/down_slope:
1064      - push the k loop inside S/R TIMESTEP_TRACER (now called outside the k loop).
1065      - in dwnslp_apply.F, update tracer tendency instead of the future tracer
1066        field and call S/R DWNSLP_APPLY before TIMESTEP_TRACER; this affects
1067        results at machine truncation level: update output of experiments
1068        global_ocean.90x40x15.dwnslp (FWD) and lab_sea.noseaicedyn (AD).
1069    o pkg/diagnostics (Stats-Diags):
1070      - do not cumulate the full volume when DIAGNOSTICS_FILL is
1071        called with bibjFlg < 0 (no increment of the counter for 2D/3D diag);
1072        This fix the mean statistics when DIAGNOSTICS_FILL is called multiple
1073        times (but Min,Max and StD are still wrong).
1074    o model/src:
1075      - add geothermal flux forcing: read in ini_forcing.F as time-constant
1076        field "geothermalFlux" applied in S/R APPLY_FORCING_T (apply_forcing.F)
1077    o model/src:
1078      - move CYCLE_TRACER calls from tracers_correction_step.F to temp/salt/ptracer
1079        _integrate.F so that, when leaving S/R THERMODYANMICS, theta,salt and pTrac
1080        arrays are already updated while adjustments (filters, conv.adjustment) are
1081        still applied later, in S/R TRACERS_CORRECTION_STEP.
1082    o model/src:
1083      - store in common bloc array "rhoInSitu" the virtual potential temperature
1084        anomaly that is used to compute geopotential: this make the atmos code
1085        more similar to ocean code which already uses rhoInSitu in calc_phi_hyd.F
1086    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F
1087      - rename integer variable ilcall to ipass (that's what it is called
1088        in the residual diagnostics
1089      - change time stepping for NPSEUDOTIMESTEP > 2 (does not change the
1090        default) for improved non-linear convergence of the first few steps
1091      - adjust a few comments and add new ones to explain some of the store
1092        directives
1093    o pkg/generic_advdiff (& ptracers):
1094      - re-work the code to check for valid advection scheme and for minimum
1095        size of overlap (now stored in local common bloc in gad_advscheme.F)
1096    o pkg/seaice: another attempt to make the adjoint work for sea ice dynamics
1097      - re-initialize more variables in seaice_lsr: u/vIceC, u/vIceNm1
1098      - add an auxilliary variable "bet" and fix store directives and keys in
1099        seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v, this seems to do the trick (i.e. more or
1100        less exact gradients in my tests); but there are still
1101        recomputation warning (although gradients are sort of OK), when
1102        SEAICE_LSR_VECTORIZE is not defined, so this flag and
1103        SEAICE_LSR_VECTORIZE_ZEBRA are recommended for efficiency.
1104      - update verification experiments lab_sea.
1105      - change some comments in S/R seaice_calc_viscosities
1106    o model/src:
1107      - if staggerTimeStep=T, always apply exchange to velocity field in
1108        do_stagger_fields_exchanges.F instead of in do_fields_blocking_exchanges.F
1109        (independent of using multi-dim advection or not); no effect on FWD run
1110        but affects AD results (at machine truncation level): update output of
1111        experiment 1D_ocean_ice_column (ad: 12 digits), hs94.1x64x5 (ad,oad: 13.d)
1112        and isomip (oad: 12.d).
1113    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
1114      - stop if doAB_onGtGs is set to FALSE but ignored
1115      - refine warning related to stability of tracer time-stepping
1116        regarding internal wave dynamics.
1117      - setting of AdamsBashforth_T,S when doAB_onGtGs=F: remove condition
1118        on staggerTimeStep & implicitIntGravWave (will now get a warning
1119        if potentially unstable).
1120    o pkg/kl10:
1121      - add new pkg "kl10" for mixing due to internal wave breaking, from
1122        http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1463500310000144
1123        (contribution from Jody Klymak), tested in verification experiment
1124        verification/internal_wave/input.kl10/
1125    o isomip experiment:
1126      - test pkg/shelfice with Non-Lin Free-Surf in one of the FWD set-up
1127        (input.htd) and update the output.
1128    o cd_code experiments:
1129      - use default cd_code options (#undef CD_CODE_NO_AB_MOMENTUM &
1130        #undef CD_CODE_NO_AB_CORIOLIS) in experiments: cfc_example (fwd)
1131        global_ocean.90x40x15 (ad & oad) and OpenAD (ad & oad) and
1132        update the corresponding output.
1133    o pkg/seaice:
1134      - reduce the number of include files and store directives in
1135        S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
1136      - change the order of loops in one case in S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagv
1137        (only for SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA defined), which allows me to
1138        get rid off one store directive (a TAF bug?)
1139      - add one more instance of ifdef SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA in
1140        S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagv to change the loop range for consistency
1141      - remove ilcall, m from parameter list of S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
1142      - fix a bug that affects the JFNK solver: replace sNx/y by i/jMax in
1143        S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v (requires update of
1144        offline_exf_seaice/input.dyn_jfnk)
1145    
1146    checkpoint65a (2014/07/27)
1147    o model/src:
1148      - Non-Lin Free-Surf in p/z coords: allows hFacW,S to be larger than
1149        surrounding hFacC=1 @ edge of a step with different kSurfC on either side
1150        (topo in p-coords, ice-shelf in z-coords); update output of experiments
1151        tutorial_global_oce_in_p and isomip (both AD and OpenAD output).
1152    o model/src:
1153      - collect momentum forcing tendency into local 2-D array (passed as argument
1154        to apply_forcing S/R); this simplifies mom. Forcing diagnostics and CD_CODE
1155        parts in timestep.F (without CD_CODE_NO_AB_MOMENTUM defined = the default);
1156        affects results at machine truncation level (e.g., if using OBCS_SPONGE).
1157      - collect T & S forcing tendency into local 2-D array (passed as argument to
1158        apply_forcing S/R); add 3-D diagnostics for temp & salt forcing tendency.
1159        affects results at machine truncation level (e.g., ocean: if using
1160        SHORTWAVE_HEATING ; atmos: if using FrictionHeating or (atm_Rq<>0) moist
1161        correction due to vertical advection).
1162      - update output of experiments: fizhi-cs-32x32x40 (13 digits),
1163        global_ocean.cs32x15 (fwd: icedyn, seaice, thsice, all 3 @ 11d; adm & tml:
1164        seaice_dynmix & thsice, fwd grd @ 3 & 8), hs94.1x64x5 (ad grd @ 13),
1165        obcs_ctrl (ad & fwd grd @ 12 & 7).
1166    o pkg/ptracers & diagnostics:
1167      - use ptracers (short) name (instead of long one) to make ptracers diagnostics
1168        title (to avoid some unexpected truncation); sort out ptracers diags units.
1169      - collect ptracer forcing tendency into local 2-D array (passed as argument
1170        to apply_forcing S/R); add 3-D diagnostics for ptracers forcing tendency.
1171    
1172    checkpoint65 (2014/07/18)
1173    o pkg/fizhi:
1174      - add parenthesis around fizhi tendencies in fizhi_tendency_apply.F: this
1175        affects results at machine truncation level. Update output of experiments
1176        fizhi-cs-32x32x40 (12 digits for cg2d) & fizhi-cs-aqualev20 (13 digits).
1177    o pkg/seaice: more clean up
1178      - rename TAF common block tapes to be more consistent and remove
1179        unnecessary duplicates
1180      - add store directives to remove more recomputations, but use smaller
1181        tapes (and adjust keys) when SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER is undefined.
1182        The idea behind this flag is to reduce the memory footprint when the
1183        adjoint of the LSR is not required. As of now, defining the flag
1184        SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER increases 4 common block tapes for 2D field by
1185        a factor of SOLV_MAX_FIXED (=500 by default in SEAICE_SIZE.h).
1186        For experiment offline_exf_seaice, this means on a linux box with gfortran
1187        nearly a factor of 10 (but keep in mind there is mostly seaice code in
1188        this experiment):
1189        > size mitgcmuv_ad
1190        text    data        bss     dec        hex
1191        5100659 1216  220458952  225560827  d71c8fb
1192        5339425 1200 1868783272 1874123897 6fb4dc79 (SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER)
1193        but only a moderate increase of 36% for global_ocean.cs32x15:
1194        text    data        bss     dec        hex
1195        6695027 1648 1014578664 1021275339 3cdf6ccb
1196        6695203 1648 1382505320 1389202171 52cd8afb (SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER)
1197      - note: there are still recomputations in global_ocean.cs32x15 and
1198        offline_exf_seaice and the gradient agreement changes (gets a
1199        little worse) for global_ocean.cs32x15 (-> update output_adm.seaice.txt)
1200      - in general, the AD gradients still are wrong
1201    o OpenAD
1202      - clean up code_oad/ directories somewhat by moving files
1203        dontCompile, dontTransform, keepOriginal to OAD_support/
1204    o model/src:
1205      - using MOM fluxform and Non-Lin Free-Surf with momDissip_In_AB=F
1206        (not currently tested): add dissipation terms before NLFS rescaling of
1207        tendencies (previously done after).
1208    o pkg/diagnostics:
1209      - write stats-diags in ascii file with more digits (same as in monitor).
1210    o pkg/down_slope:
1211      - drop the bi,bj dimension of argument recip_hFac in S/R DWNSLP_APPLY; with
1212        NLFS (not tested), use new recip_hFac value in order to conserve tracer.
1213    o model/src:
1214      - new file "apply_forcing.F" containing all the code previously in
1215        external_forcing.F, but with new argument list: pass, as new argument,
1216        the current level tendency array to update (instead of a direct update
1217        of the common bloc array). Change the corresponding calls.
1218      - add CPP option USE_OLD_EXTERNAL_FORCING (default is undef) to use
1219        EXTERNAL_FORCING_U,V,T,S subroutines (for backward compatibility).
1220    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr, a little bit of clean up
1221      - rearrange some code blocks, so that now all calculations for
1222        setting up the right-hand-sides done within one single block
1223        (I find that easier to read and understand)
1224      - rearrange freedrift-code to reduce the number of ifdefs
1225      - adjust some indentations and comments
1226    
1227    checkpoint64z (2014/07/10)
1228    o model/src and several pkgs:
1229      - change argument list of all S/R called from external_forcing.F and
1230        called from ptracers_forcing.F (renamed to ptracers_apply_forcing.F)
1231        to pass, as argument, the current level tendency array to update
1232        (instead of a direct update of the common bloc array).
1233      - change also (in the same way) argument list of PTRACERS_APPLY_FORCING;
1234      - rename taueddy_external_forcing.f to taueddy_tendency_apply.F
1235    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F
1236      - always initialize local arrays in seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
1237      - add more local tapes to seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
1238      - move storing u/vice(:,:,bi,bj) out of seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v, but
1239        keep it in bi/bj loop; this seems to be essential
1240      - gradients are still wrong but only by 4-7 orders of magnitude
1241        instead of 15 orders of magnitude, lab_sea improves a little
1242    o pkg/seaice
1243      - (pkg/autodiff) remove storing/restoring of seaiceMaskU/V that
1244        generates unnecessary code in seaice_lsr_ad
1245      - add more store directives in seaice_lsr to avoid unnecessary code
1246        in seaice_lsr_ad
1247      - exclude some residual computations in seaice_lsr when
1248        ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC is defined in order to avoid unnecessary code
1249        in seaice_lsr_ad
1250      - add more storing, a new tape (model/src/the_main_loop.F) and
1251        another key for SEAICE_LSR_VECTORIZE_ZEBRA (the local keys ilockey
1252        and klockey should be checked by a specialist)
1253      - modify ( define SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR and SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER )
1254        and update lab_sea after previous changes in pkg/seaice below
1255    o pkg/autodiff:
1256      - introduce useSmoothCorrel2DinAdMode, SEAICEapproxLevInAd, and
1257        viscFacInAd : run time parameters allowing for adjoint switches
1258        note : logic for useSmoothCorrel2DinAdMode is in ctrl_readparms.F
1259    o pkg/ecco:
1260      - introduce cost_gencost_boxmean.F that computes a box mean
1261        temperature (for use in adjoint sensitivity studies).
1262    o model/src/set_defaults.F : initialize viscFacAdj to 1.
1263    o pkg/mom_common/mom_calc_visc.F:
1264      - ifdef ALLOW_AUTODIFF then include viscFacAdj factor.
1265    o pkg/seaice/seaice_summary.F:
1266      - statement for SEAICEadjMODE now in autodiff_readparms.F
1267    o pkg/seaice:
1268      - remove some store directives and add new ones in an effort to get
1269        finally rid off the recomputation warnings. This is successful
1270        when SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR ***and*** SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER are
1271        defined (i.e. no extensive recomputation warnings left), but there
1272        are still too many recomputations on the solver iteration level
1273      - define SEAICE_VECTORISZE_LSR in offline_exf_seaice/code_ad/SEAICE_OPTIONS.h
1274      - move definition of MPSEUDOTIMESTEPS into TAMC-block in
1275        SEAICE_SIZE.h
1276      - add a store directive in S/R seaice_calc_viscosities
1277    o pkg/seaice (ITD code):
1278      - fix definition of Hlimit for multi-threaded case
1279      - use double precision arithmetic to compute Hlimit: this affects results;
1280        update output of experiment seaice_itd.
1281    o replace content of verification/seaice_itd
1282      - instead of a 1D column use the configuration of offline_exf_seaice
1283        to test the ice thickness distribution code with ridging
1284      - this is a first shot at this experiment
1285      - change of some defaults of ridging parameters SEAICEhStar (from
1286        100 to 25) and SEAICEmuRidging (from 5 to 3) in seaice_readparms.F
1287        and lot of new comments.
1288    
1289    checkpoint64y (2014/06/20)
1290    o pkg/seaice/seaice_reg_ridge.F:
1291      - modify the regularization of very small volumes of ice; only check
1292        total volume HEFF, and do not apply correction to individual ice
1293        classes because that leads to funny patterns in the heat and fw-fluxes
1294        into the ocean. Adjust seaice_itd/results/output.txt
1295      - replace nITD by SEAICE_multDim in loop-ranges
1296    o pkg/exf:
1297      - add code to process the case field period = -12. with UV interpolation.
1298      - move debug print (formerly active when exf_verbose=T) from EXF_getFFieldRec
1299        into S/R that calls it (i.e., exf_set_gen.F, exf_set_uv.F & obcs_exf_load.F)
1300    o verification/global_with_exf:
1301      - switch all fields period to -12. (was previously untested) in input/data.exf
1302        (but keep secondary test ".yearly" unchanged); update the reference output.
1303    o pkg/cal:
1304      - new calendar type "noLeapYear" for 365 days calendar without any leap year.
1305    o pkg/exf:
1306      - new integer parameter "exf_debugLev" (default set to main model debugLevel)
1307        to replace logical switch "exf_verbose"
1308      - report in STDOUT when loading a new record (if exf_debugLev >= 3)
1309    o pkg/sbo:
1310      - update from Katherine Quinn: evaluate mass directly from density and SSH
1311        (budget using Finite Volume method) instead of from bottom pressure.
1312      - allow testreport to collect few selected SBO output ; tested in exp.
1313        global_ocean.90x40x15 (after updating the results, to include SBO output).
1314      - fix some multi-threading issues (in output part).
1315    o model/src & most packages:
1316      - always call {PKG}_READPARMS even if corresponding use{PKG}=F;
1317      - in {PKG}_READPARMS, in case use{PKG}=F: add a call to new S/R
1318        PACKAGES_UNUSED_MSG to print a weak warning when parameter file
1319        "data.{pkg}" exist ; and leave the S/R (return) just after.
1320      - more standard LAND pkg interface (land_init_fixed.F, land_check.F).
1321        + call LAND_READPARMS from packages_readparms.F
1322    o pkg/seaice:
1323      - remove code that resets useThSice in S/R seaice_readparms and
1324        replace it by a warning in S/R seaice_check
1325      - remove parameter MULTDIM, replace with nITD and runtime
1326        parameter SEAICE_multDim (still hard-wired to nITD if
1327        SEAICE_ITD is defined)
1328    
1329    checkpoint64x (2014/05/24)
1330    o verification/lab_sea:
1331      - update adjoint and TLM output following changes to pkg/salt_plume
1332      - un-do the update after putting back local recip_Cp in few places.
1333    o pkg/salt_plume: modifications by An Nguyen:
1334      - add capability to do brine rejection (salt-plume) as function of
1335        volume+tracers (instead of only salinity tracer).
1336      - conserve volume by exchanging volume from each kLev to above to
1337        accommodate in-coming brine volume
1338      - store surface and klev exchanged fraction + volume in 4 new 3-d arrays
1339      - switch KPP surf buoyancy due to brine forcing to 3-d
1340        (3 more 3-d arrays, 2 for SPforcing[T,S], 1 for boplume)
1341      - add salt_plume_volfrac, salt_plume_apply, salt_plume_tendency_apply_t
1342      - unrelatedly, also add ad-hoc capability to vary salt_plume scheme
1343        in East/West Arctic.
1344    o pkg/sbo:
1345      - incorporate modifications from Katherine Quinn to enable the use of sbo
1346        pkg in ECCO-v4 set-up ; remove SBO-TimeAve output ; add monitor-like
1347        output for future testreport verification (unfinished).
1348    o pkg/atm_phys:
1349      - change diagnostics (AtPh_Trf & AtPh_Qrf) of DARGAN_BETTSMILLER S/R:
1350        skip the reseting of t_ref & q_ref to initial t & q ; this preserve the
1351        output of S/R CAPECALCNEW (Parcel temp & q) for diagnostics.
1352    o pkg/seaice
1353      seaice_calc_ice_strength.F: modify expression to avoid divisions
1354        (affects truncation)
1355      seaice_do_ridging.F: clean up the insectarium
1356      - fix a bug that was compensated by areaScaling (-> remove areaScaling code)
1357      - added SEAICEsnowFracRidge to redistributed snow (2nd bug)
1358      - set closing/openingRate to zero where no extra iteration is need (3rd bug)
1359      - add some debugging information and error messages (warnings)
1360    o model/src: modifications relatd to atmosphere p*:
1361      - Switch to more accurate p* coordinate slope term (calc_grad_phi_hyd.F)
1362      - With p* or Sigma-P, use constant reference Pot.Temp (thetaConst) instead
1363        of vertical profile tRef in geopotential background and anomaly.
1364      - Acount for true p* correction in theta <-> T conversion in pkg/aim_v23
1365        and pkg/atm_phys.
1366      - Update FWD output of experiments: aim.5l_cs (x2), fizhi-cs-32x32x40,
1367        fizhi-cs-aqualev20, fizhi-gridalt-hs, tutorial_held_suarez_cs, cpl_aim+ocn.
1368    o pkg/seaice: fix a bug in seaice_prepare_ridging.F, forgot a sqrt
1369    o pkg/ptracers: compute ptracer source/sink due to linear free surface.
1370        not used right now, but can be used in BGC packages to fix conservation.
1371    o pkg/dic, pkg/gchem: move tracer_meanarea to gchem, so it can be used by
1372        other packages too.
1373    o pkg/seaice/seaice_calc_ice_strength.F: replace SEAICE_rhoSnow by
1374        SEAICE_rhoIce in the Rothrock (1975)-type strength calculations (bug fix)
1375    o model/src:
1376      - since we have several heat capacity (even in model/src), define "recip_Cp"
1377        as local variable (no longer in common block) to avoid any confusion.
1378      - add thetaConst in PARAMS.h (to be used with pStar or sigma-P coords).
1379    o pkg/exf:
1380      - from Jeff Scott: add option (#define EXF_CALC_ATMRHO) to calculate local
1381        air density as function of air Temp, Humidity and atm pressure.
1382    
1383    checkpoint64w (2014/05/02)
1384    o verification:
1385      - update output_adm.txt files for experiment global_ocean.cs32x15 (seaice &
1386        seaice_dynmix) and lab_sea (primary test & noseaicedyn): moving/changing
1387        code from seaice_growth.F & seaice_advdiff.F to new ridging routines
1388        seaice_reg_ridge.F seaice_do_ridging.F affects AD gradient
1389        (down to 8-7 matching digits for global_ocean and 5-6 for lab_sea).
1390    o model/src: for atmosphere in p* coords:
1391      - store factor rStarFacC**atm_kappa (= pStarFacK) in common block
1392      - implement more accurate p* coordinate slope term (in calc_grad_phi_hyd.F),
1393        but not yet activated.
1394    o pkg/seaice: fix restart problem for ITD with new ice strength parameterisation:
1395      - move computation of opnWtrFrac = 1-AREA to before computing ice strength
1396      - this changes the results (but not for any verification experiment, because
1397        none tests this), but avoids having an extra field in the restart files
1398    o pkg/seaice: remove global variable TICE (not needed)
1399      - replace by TICES or local variable where necessary (cost_seaice_test,
1400        seaice_diagnostics_state)
1401      - move copying TICE to TICES from seaice_check_pickup to seaice_read_pickup
1402      - use specific read/write routines for reading and writing individual leves
1403        of a multilevel field
1404    o pkg/ctrl & model/inc:
1405      - move additional anomaly fields of control vars (related to options:
1406         ALLOW_KAPGM_CONTROL, ALLOW_KAPREDI_CONTROL and ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG_CONTROL)
1407        from DYNVARS.h into new header file: CTRL_FIELDS.h
1408    o pkg/seaice: some small modifications to the ridging code
1409      - make fw2ObyRidge a global variable and add the freshwater flux to
1410        seaice_growth
1411      - pass actual thickness from seaice_prepare_ridging, so that it is
1412        computed only in one place and compute it in the same way as in
1413        seaice_growth
1414      - initialise more fields in seaice_do_ridging that where cause floating
1415        point exceptions over land
1416  o pkg/seaice: preparations for ridging code and first real ridging code  o pkg/seaice: preparations for ridging code and first real ridging code
1417    - move most of "PART 1" of S/R seaice_growth into a new and separate    - move most of "PART 1" of S/R seaice_growth into a new and separate
