4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o obcs: always reset wVel & eta (to zero or prescribe it) at the OBs.
8    o add new package rbcs (for relaxing ptracers at boundaries/depth/surface etc)
9    o add new offset feature to offline pkg (plus minor cleanup)
10    o cfc fixes for final year of integration
11    o clean up GCHEM_OPTIONS.h/DIC_OPTIONS.h (all options should
12      be in GCHEM_OPTIONS).
13    
14    checkpoint57x_post
15    o fix testreport Pb in multiple test experiment.
16    o cleanup our namelist syntax in verification:
17      - make it more F95 standards compliant (some work still needed)
18      - allows the vast majority of our tests to work with gfortran
19    o Non-Hydrostatic:
20     - put all NH variables (formerly in DYNVARS.h & GW.h) in NH_VARS.h
21     - fix exchange calls for CS-grid using the new EXCH_S3D_RL.
22    o Allow to apply AB on T,S rather than on AB(gT,gS):
23     - implemented within #ifdef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3
24     - use the same arrays (gtNm,gsNm) to hold tracer field at previous
25       time-steps (if AB(T,S)) and tendencies (if AB(gT,gS)).
26     - need a "clever" read_pickup to restart from the other AB formulation
27    o move local commom bloc /GlobalLo/ (used for singleCpuIO) in EESUPPORT.h
28    o remove some unused variables (reduces number of compiler warnings)
29    o adjoint
30      * Disable useVariableViscosity for adjoint for time being
31        (there are a number of extensive recomputations)
32      * Initialize certain variables needed for adjoint
33    
34    checkpoint57w_post
35    o pkg/mdsio: use MAX_LEN_FNAM (instead of hard coded 80) for file-names
36                 fix the singleCpuIO RS version of MDSWRITEFIELD
37       and add a WARNING if using globalFiles=T with multi-processors.
38    o write grid-file(s) in only one format (MDS or MNC): default=MNC (if
39      using MNC); can force MDS output by setting writegrid_mnc=F in data.mnc
40    o tracer advection scheme:
41      add DST-2 (=Lax-Wendroff) & 1rst order upwind schemes (the way to get
42       those 2 schemes before, changing GAD_FLUX_LIMITER.h + to recompile,
43       was not very convenient).
44      add implicit version for DST-3 & DST3_Flux_Limit vertical advection;  
45       (further tests needed for the implicit DST & Flux-Limiter schemes).
46    o PTRACERS: added namelist parameter PTRACERS_ref in analogy to tRef
47      and sRef for convenience, handy, when you want to initialize
48      ptracers in a large domain with a constant non-zero value. Also,
49      untangle ptracers_init.F a little.
50    
51    checkpoint57v_post
52    o change dome exp. to use variable viscosity in side-drag terms.
53    o remove all the files from the cfc_offline test since they are now
54      incorporated into tutorial_cfc_offline which has been producing
55      identical results for a few days of testing
56    o add new parameter: sideDragFactor to enable half-slip-side BC
57      and change side-drag S/R to use viscosity from mom_calc_visc
58      (can switch back by setting sideDragFactor=0.); affects results at
59      truncation level; regenerate output for exp.: global_ocean.cs32x10(x3),
60       global_ocean_ebm, global_ocean_pressure, matrix_example & MLAdjust(x5).
61    o vorticity & strain are now computed without masking, to account for
62      no-slip-side BC in variable viscosity calculation ; mask is applied
63      anyway later on, before computing advection/coriolis terms.
64    o modify exp4 to test new obcs support for reading from external files
65      and for passive tracers
66    o fix behavior of ptracers_monitor when monitor output is written to a
67      netcdf-file; still not independent of monitor.F (writes in the same
68      file).
69    o change default value of tRef (put a uniform, meaningful value for ocean
70      & atmos) and initialize sRef (was missing, as Martin mentioned).
71    o Redefine viscC?Leith*.  Change the coefficients of Leith viscosity
72      to be proportional to enstrophy dissipation length.  Thus,
73       viscC?leith?_new=pi*(viscC?leith?_old)^(1/3)
74      This is now consistent with Smagorinsky and with the manual.
75    
76    checkpoint57u_post
77    o OBCS and PTRACERS: add open boundary support for passive tracers
78      - either use homogenous (pseudo) v.Neumann conditions or prescribe
79        OB-values from file; this is not different from the way theta and salinity
80        are treated
81      - however, Orlanski-radiation conditions are not supported, and the model
82        will stop if you use pTracers and Orlanski at the same time.
83      - beefed up the rountine obcs_external_fields_load: now only those open
84        boundary values are overwritten with values from files for which there
85        are really files, otherwise the OB-fields remain untouched. This makes
86        it possible to use different OBs at different ends of the domain (as
87        with EXF)
88    o reduce number of exch calls in shap_filt (s2).
89    o CS-grid: fix divergence contribution to Leith viscosity. Affects (@
90      truncation level) 4/5 MLAdjust test results (11&12 digits match).
91    
92    checkpoint57t_post
93    o test biharmonic viscosity + no-slip with exp: global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
94    o finish adding brackets (coriolis S/R, vecinv) in multi-terms sum to get
95      same truncation, independent of the face number: affects affects several
96      test. exp.: Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
97    o fix bug in mom_v_sidedrag (biharmonic viscosity was counted 2 times);
98      note that biharmonic viscosity + no-slip was not tested in any experiment.
99    o fix bug in non-linear free-surf side-drag ; generate new output for
100      global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & global_ocean_pressure.
101    o make mnc honor the writeBinaryPrec flag for most kinds of output
102    o eesupp: split EEPARAMS into EESIZE/EEPARAMS and add a vector global sum
103    o minor change in averaging W (mom_vi_?_vertshear.F) that affects truncation
104      error; update output from global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
105    o add brackets in multi-terms sum to get same truncation, independent of
106      the face number (manage to get exactly same value of gU,gV at the cs-edge)
107      affects several test. exp. Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice).
108    o Clean, new version of mom_calc_visc.  Adds a new feature, viscAhRemax
109      and viscA4Remax, which allow one to limit the minimum viscosity by specifying
110      a maximum grid-scale Reynolds number.  Also, changes all length calculations
111      in the case of grid anisotropy to geometric mean of dx**2 and dy**2.
112      Suggested values of viscosity parameters found in mom_calc_visc.
113      Many new viscosity diagnostics available.
114    
115    checkpoint57s_post
116    o Add clearing-house for viscosity calculations, mom_calc_visc and
117      correct numerous bugs in LeithD and Smagorinsky discretizations.  
118      mom_calc_visc now allows for Smagorinsky, Leith and LeithD to be
119      used simultaneously, and to be used in mom_vecinv and mom_fluxform.
120      Mom_vecinv can be used with standard viscous calculation (mom_vi_hdissip.F)
121      and with Strain-Tension viscous term calculation (mom_hdissip.F).  
122      The Strain-Tension form is now called with useStrainTensonVisc=.true.
123      ViscAhStrain and viscAhTension are now retired.
124    o diagnostics "VISCAHD" & "VISCA4D" replace "VISCAH" & "VISCA4".
125    o In response to JMC's bug report, genmake2 now ignores any soft-links
126      that it finds in the *current* directory when searching for files.
127      Soft-links found in any other source directories will still work as
128      they did before.
129    o add HAVE_SETRLSTK define and useSETRLSTK flag (eedata) which calls
130      a C routine to unlimit the stack size
131    o mnc-ify pkg/aim snapshot vars
132    o mnc-ify pkg/land as requested by Daniel
133    o various changes to mnc including:
134      - all files use the new "BASENAME[[.ITER].{t|f}NUM].nc" format
135      - output can now be grouped so that all files within a group
136          change the ITER portion of their names in lock-step together
137      - can now read ("global") PER-FACE (in addition to PER-TILE) files
138          and works with both EXCH1 and EXCH2 (but needs more testing)
139      - writing works for all verification test cases w/ g77 on Linux
140    
141    checkpoint57r_post
142    o make MNC variable initialization happen earlier
143    o add diagnostics for (almost) each term of the momentum Eq.
144    o remove SST,SSS,UVEL_k2,VVEL_k2 diagnostics.
145    o move pkg timeave out of pkg-groups "oceanic" & "atmospheric" (pkg/pkg_groups)
146    o remove MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT option ;
147      add "dumpInitAndLast" to replace "nodumps" (and MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT).
148    o move some basic S/R (used elsewhere in the code) from pkg/mdsio to eesupp/src
149      allows to compile without pkg/mdsio (& test successfully hs94.1x64x5)
150    o add MNC output for adjoint of EXF (adexf), SEAICE (adseaice)
151    o add time-dependent SST, SSS control
152    o cost terms in ecco/ modularized (new cost_generic.F)
153    o cost_averages routines are modularized (new cost_averagesgeneric.F)
154    o new infrastructure for seaice model vs. obs misfits in seaice/
155      * driver from the_main_loop.F is seaice_cost_driver.F
156      * first term is AREA vs. SMR observation misfit (ALLOW_SEAICE_COST_SMR_AREA)
157      * gradient check in Exp. 6a of natl_box_adjoint/
158    o natl_box_adjoint input_seaice for Lab. Sea now available online via wget
159      (see README file)
160    
161    checkpoint57q_post
162    o fix initialisation Pb in calc_gw (get NANs in exp5 with g77)
163    o fix annoying months-old bug in mnc/mdsio output for seaice pkg
164      - bug was reported by Jean-Michel and Ian Fenty
165    o fix initialization Pb in AIM-Ocean coupled model (aim_sice2aim.F)
166      update exp. cpl_aim+ocn output.
167    o Implement 4-level checkpointing: AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
168      Needed for high-res. runs with large global files
169      to be able to limit tapelev size
170    o Changed some tests for adjoint:
171      * carbon/ now tests AUTODIFF_2_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
172      * natl_box_adjoint/code_bulk/ tests AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
173      * global_ocean.90x40x15/ back to default 3-level checkpointing
174    o Modifications to enable scripted COMMON to MODULE conversion
175      * verification/OpenAD/code/ has necessary scripts and description;
176      * converts, compiles and runs successfully;
177    
178    checkpoint57p_post
179    o reading of delXfile & delYfile moved from ini_parms.F to ini_grid.F
180    o move ${PKG}_MNC_INIT from ${PKG}_READ_PARAMS to ${PKG}_INIT_FIXED
181      (already the case for some pkgs, including recent MNC_init, e.g. thsice)
182    o call CALC_GW from DYNAMICS (instead of from FORWARD_STEP)
183    o Dissipation & phiHyd gradient are always added to gU,gV in timestep.F
184      (was already the case for dissipation with mom_vecinv,
185       and also the case for grad.PhiHyd when staggered-timeStep)
186      This will allow to put dissipation out-off the AB time-stepping.
187     Unfortunately, affects truncation error. Update output of exp. that "fails"
188      (cg2d matching number) and leave the others for later: front_relax(10),
189      global_ocean_pressure(10),ideal_2D_oce(10),internal_wave(9),lab_sea(12),
190      matrix_example(7!),natl_box(12),plume_on_slope(11),vermix(12x3,11x2).
191    
192    checkpoint57o_post
193    o fix MNC/MDSIO flags in PTRACERS so that (1) it works, and
194      (2) its ready to be documented during the 20050801 DocFest
195    o MNC-ify the gmredi package -- tested and works w/ and w/o mnc
196      for ideal_2D_oce and lab_sea on linux_ia32_g77
197    o set to #undef CTRL_SET_OLD_MAXCVARS_30
198      in global1x1_tot/code_seaice_adj to access indices 32, 33
199      (worth another tag)
200    
201    checkpoint57n_post
202    o adding precip control xx_precip 32
203    o adding swflux control xx_swflux 33
204    o Replacing 10 forcing penalty cost routines by 1 generic.
205    o Implementing partitioning in time-mean and variable adjustment
206      for atmos. state.
207    o Time-mean constant error is now read in data.ecco (instead of hard-coded)
208    o in natl_box_adjoint:
209      * updated exp 1 to 10
210        (but does not have time-mean vs. variable split results yet)
211    o updated global1x1/*_seaice_adj/
212      to incorporate latest changes
213    o enable useSingleCpuIO for mdsio vector routines
214      (applies in particular to tapelev I/O)
215    o removed inefficient K-loop in all active_file*control*.F
216    
217    checkpoint57m_post
218    o re-arrange exp. adjustment.cs-32x32x1 (adjust_nlfs.cs-32x32x1 merge into)
219      and advect_cs (use EXCH-2 and standard cs-32 grid files).
220    o pkg/exch2: filling of face-corner halo regions is optional
221      (ifdef W2_FILL_NULL_REGIONS) and is turned off by default.
222    
223    checkpoint57l_post
224     tag before updating tutorials (pre-release-2)
225    o add cos & sin of grid-direction orientation angle (curvilinear grid only,
226       for output and interpolation of input fields onto model grid)
227    o fix radius in mom_v_metric_cylinder.F (wrong by dy/2).
228       Affects results of exp. rotating_tank ; update output.txt.
229    o pkg/diagnostics: 2 new S/R to fill a diagnostics using a scaling factor
230          and taking the square quantity and/or using a fraction-weight field.
231    o fix aim_diagnostics_init.F mate numbers.
232    o add mnc output capability to diagnostics/diagstat and update
233      our cvsignore files for the ACSII output generated
234    
235    checkpoint57k_post
236    o lab_sea now uses diagnostics package and provides a suite of
237      new EXF diagnostics output.
238    
239    checkpoint57j_post
240    o exf
241      * bug fix in exf_bulkformulae for psimh (spotted by Eliyahu Biton):
242        Bracket missing in eqn. for psimh (eqn. 7 of Large & Pond, 1982);
243        terms -2*ATAN(x) + pi/2 were added to both stable and unstable case.
244      * extended diagnostics output
245        - now includes all EXF variables
246        - hs, hl moved to common block
247        - separate S/R for diagnostics, called after ctrl vector is added
248        - name changed for EXFsw -> EXFswnet, EXFlw -> EXFlwnet
249        - EXFqnet contains true Qnet (i.e. includes qsw)
250      * updated verif. lab_sea, global_with_exf
251      * Rearranging hflux (exf_mapfields -> exf_getforcing)
252        to ensure that diagnostics sees a true EXFqnet
253    o add matlab scripts for CS-grid vectors (in utils/cs_grid)
254    o diagnostics pkg: change pointers so that 1 diagnostic can be used
255      several times with different frequencies.
256    o mnc-ify the thsice package as requested by Daniel Enderton
257      - the monitor--MNC output needs work
258      - many attributes need to be added (most are currently blank)
259    o mnc-ify theaim_v23 package as requested by Daniel Enderton
260      - many attributes need to be added (most are currently blank)
261    o remove "groundAtK1" & "rkFac" (replaced by usingPCoords & -rkSign)
262    o add Sadourny like discretization to the 4th.O vorticity advection scheme
263    o fix bug in rStar code (calc_r_star.F) when used with topo/bathy.
264      update output.txt from: aim.5l_cs (& .thSI), cpl_aim+ocn,
265         fizhi-gridalt-hs and global_ocean.cs32x15 (& .thsice).
266    o fix few little things to avoid floating error with -ftrapuv (ifort v9)
267     (ini_spherical_polar_grid.F, calc_r_star.F, monitor/mon_surfcor.F)
268    
269    checkpoint57i_post
270    o Diagnostics package was changed: diagnostic allocation is now deactivated
271      by setting an empty file name in the namelist (used to be by setting 0 frequency)
272    o momentum advection (VI form) options: activate 4th.O vorticity Coriolis ;
273      add 1rst Order upwind vertical Shear.
274    o add a quick fix for A/B checkpointing in OFFLINE mode
275    o add IGNORE_TIME define and -ignore_time option to genmake2 as an
276      end-run around the C/Fortran linking horror in eesup/src/timers.F
277    o added pkg/runclock: allows user to terminate run based on wall clock
278    o added non-hydrostatic scaling parameter: nh_am2
279    o pkg/my82: futile attempt to make results compiler-independent by adding
280      some "_d 0", etc. no effect.
281    o for mnc output, fill the 'T' coordinate var with myTime and create a
282      separate 'iter' variable for iteration count
283    o pkg/diagnostics:
284      add new capability: output of Global/Regional & per-level statistics ;
285      tested against monitor output (including land & thSIce) on various exp.
286    o make seaice-pkg I/O type flags (MNC/MDS) more standard.
287    
288    checkpoint57h_done
289      tag after changing user customized files (DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h,
290      data.diagnostics, data.gchem, data.ptracers) is done.
291    
292    o pkg/diagnostics: prepare for Global/Regional statistics.
293      add 2nd namelist in data.diagnostics and update DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h
294    o remove "baseTime" (no used) from arg. list of DIFF_BASE_MULTIPLE
295      and rename it: DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE
296    
297    checkpoint57h_post
298    o move tIter0 from data.gchem to PTRACERS_Iter0 in data.ptracers
299    o pkg/diagnostics: change output frequency, now in seconds (instead
300      of Nb of iterations). This requires to change data.diagnostics.
301    checkpoint57h_pre
302    
303    o in mnc, let the user create the output dir if both mnc_outdir_date
304      and mnc_outdir_num are false
305    o add fflags() to pkg/diagnostics which allows one to specify, on a
306      per-file basis, the file precision [default behavior is unchanged]
307    o added diagnostics to pkg/kpp, including computation of mixed layer
308      depth based on a temperature/density criterion
309    o updated verification/natl_box to test the new pkg/kpp diagnostics
310    o bugs fixed (with useAbsVorticity=T & with useJamartMomAdv=T)
311    o test AB-3 code with 4th.Order advection scheme (advect_xy/input.ab3_c4)
312    o fix mnc flags in pkg/seaice so that they are "owned" by seaice,
313      not mnc -- this mistake was found by JMC and is now corrected
314    
315    checkpoint57g_post
316    o add Adams-Bashforth 3rd Order time stepping:
317      - default remains AB-2 (#undef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3)
318      - not yet implemented with NH, CD_Scheme, pTracers, MNC_pickup ...
319    checkpoint57g_pre
320    
321    o make lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax spatially varying
322      (default remains spatially uniform constant based on tau)
323    o added new control variables
324      * init. uVel, vVel, etanN
325      * lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax
326    o separate masks used for ctrl_pack/unpack 'from write_grid' output
327      (suggested by G. Forget)
328    
329    checkpoint57f_post
330    o add parameter "baseTime" = model base time = time at iteration zero
331      new function DIFF_BASE_MULTIPLE (replace DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE) to
332      account for baseTime shift
333    o move Coriolis arrays from PARAMS.h to GRID.h
334    checkpoint57f_pre
335    
336    o mnc-ifying the seaice package
337    o introduced an alternative length scale calculation for use in the limiting
338      maximum viscosity (off by default, see mom_vi_hdissip.F for details)
339    o S/R ptracers_calc_diff: argument list bug for CALL KPP_CALC_DIFF_S
340    o added modified Leith scheme with viscosity proportional to grad(Hdiv)
341      as well as grad(vort3).  Made it compatible with both approximate form
342      for the cubed sphere and full form of these gradients.  Added flag
343      useFullLeith to select between approximate and full form.  
344    o add "d0" in getcon.F to reduce differences between compilers/platforms
345      update output.txt of exp. fizhi-gridalt-hs
346    o change port_rand funtion to allow to set the seed.
347    o fix obscure MNC bug involving conversion between reals and integers
348      - it caused no problems with certain (eg. gcc, ifc) compilers but the
349        new version is now more standards-compliant
350    o adjoint-related modifications
351      * gad_dst3_adv_?: to be able to use advscheme=30 in adjoint
352      * gad_calc_rhs: fool adjoint, revert to advscheme=30 in reverse when using 33
353      * mom_vi_hdissip: to be able to use Leith scheme in adjoint
354    
355    checkpoint57e_post
356    o Adding eddy stress controls a la Ferreira et al.
357    checkpoint57e_pre (actually was tagged: eckpoint57e_pre)
358    
359    o fizhi pkg: fix AtoC and CtoA when called with same input & output array
360      update output.txt of exp. fizhi-gridalt-hs
361    o add more "Z" dimensions and associated coordinate vars to MNC
362    o pkg/exf: added twoDigitYear capability for option useExfYearlyFields
363    o parameter calendarDumps: when set, approximate months (30-31 days) and years
364      (360-372 days) for parameters chkPtFreq, pChkPtFreq, taveFreq, SEAICE_taveFreq,
365      KPP_taveFreq, and freq in pkg/diagnostics are converted to exact calendar
366      months and years.  Requires pkg/cal.
367    o diagnostics: add pickup functionality
368      - off by default for backwards compatibility
369      - current version only uses MDSIO -- MNC will be added
370    o allow to use pkg diagnostics for LAND pkg output & Shapiro Tendencies.
371    o pkg/shap_filt: fix for multi-tiles per face (CS-grid with EXCH2)
372    
373    checkpoint57d_post
374    o pkg/thsice used in the ocean: fix tile Pb related to sIceLoad forcing
375    o modify verification/ideal_2D_oce so that it tests the creation of mnc
376      output from the diagnostics package
377    o temporary fix in EXCH2_UV: add a 3rd call to fix the 24.tiles CS-grid set-up
378    o make genmake2 more portable by using ".$FS" instead of ".f" for more
379      of the test compilations (eg. IBM xlf on Mac OSX w/HFS filesys)
380    o add coordinate variables to the MNC output from the diagnostics package
381    o change MNC-flags default value: true when useMNC=TRUE
382    o add a "readgrid_mnc" flag to MNC and give model/src/ini_curvilinear_grid.F
383      the ability (off by default) to read the grid information using MNC
384    o lab_sea: use LSR_ERROR=1.E-12 for testing ; update output.txt
385    o diagnostics: fix a bug (sub-set of levels); keep full precision when averaging
386    o do snap-shot diagnostics at the middle of the time-interval (instead of
387      at the end).
388    o update exp. aim.5l_cs (use default LAND_OPTIONS.h file) and add
389      new test for AIM with thSIce + slab-ocean
390    o cpl_aim+ocn test: update output (optfile & default GMREDI_OPTIONS.h)
391    o move state variable diagnostics to the beginning of the time step ;
392      (note: still needs some work specially for snap-shot diagnostics)
393      duplicate & replace UVELVVEL diagnostics with UV_VEL_C & UV_VEL_Z
394    
395    checkpoint57c_post
396    o Change testing option (-ieee) to get closer agreement between g77 & ifort
397    o generate new output.txt files on faulks with g77 & the new -ieee option
398    checkpoint57c_pre
399    
400    o add "_d 0" in freeze ; change some "FLOAT" to "DFLOAT" and went back (TAF);
401      update output.txt of exp. global_ocean.90x40x15
402    o fix in ini_eos.F (one "_d 0" was missing): now g77 & ifc give much closer
403      results; update global_ocean_pressure & global_ocean.cs32x15 output.txt
404    o add saltFlux(+File) forcing capability with periodicExternalForcing
405    o allow to use pkg diagnostics for GM-Redi & ThSIce output
406    o diagnostics_fill: fill in up to sNx+1 or sNy+1 (if U,V or Z pt) for mnc.
407    o improvements for the MNC output from DIAGNOSTICS:
408      - correct handling of the unlimitied dimension
409      - all dims now have associated coordinate variables
410      - variables located at U, V, and Corner ("Z") points are now written
411        with the correct horzontal dimensions (eg. 'Xp1', 'Yp1') so that
412        *all* data points are output
413    o added seaice_summary.F and removed obsolete ALLOW_SEAICE's from pkg/seaice
414    o added pkg/seaice/seaice_monitor.F
415    o mdsio_readfield.F can now read files visible only to master MPI process.
416    o pkg/seaice: some test code for ice-modified ocean stress
417    o exf_getffields interpolation defaults to bilinear for all scalar forcing
418      fields (remains bicubic for wind velocity and stress).  This avoids, e.g.,
419      spurious negative numbers for precipitation and humidity.  Will cause
420      some small numerical differences for integrations using pkg/exf/exf_interp.F.
421    o pkg/ctrl/
422      * Add ctrlvec diagnostics in pack/unpack for nondimensional I/O
423        May be enabled via doPackDiag
424      *  introduce z-scaling of
425         + gradient (doZscalePack) and
426         + control (doZscaleUnpack)
427    o pkg/mdsio/
428      * enable useSingleCpuIO for state estimation (ctrl_pack/unpack) mdsio_gl.F
429      * N.B.: leave tiled I/O for tapelev (i.e. mds...vector)
430    
431    checkpoint57b_post
432    o simplify options in diagnostics_fill arguments (remove weird combinations)
433    o fix MNC coordinate variables so that they now contain per-face index
434      values (instead of xC,xG,yC,yG values) when run with EXCH2 since, in
435      general, EXCH2 grids are only aligned to a "local" coordinate system
436    o test diagnostics pkg in dic_example (no output) and ideal_2D_oce (with ouput)
437    o Implement instantaneous output within pkg diagnostics:
438      setting a negative frequency in data.diagnostics produces
439     "snap-shot" output (as opposed to time-average if freq > 0)
440    o move out off EQUIVALENCE all diagnostics that fizhi does not use ;
441      NOTE: change ptracer diagnostics name: use 2 characters to work with
442            more than 9 tracers. Add also diagnostics of advect & diffus flux.
443    o more CF compliance: convert all MNC 'iter' variables to 'T' so that it
444      becomes the coordinate variable for the 'T' dimension
445    o add CF-style coordinate variables to MNC
446      - just a first cut:  numbers are meaningless on the cubesphere and
447        missing along the T axis but otherwise it works!
448    o add surface flux diagnostics: TAUX, TAUY, TFLUX, TRELAX, TICE, SFLUX, SRELAX
449    o pkg/thSIce: read initial state from 6 files ; allow monitor to use MNC.
450    o add diagnostics of advective & diffusive flux for T & S (pTracers coming soon)
451      this is based directly on what the model compute, so that the content of
452      each diagnostics might be affected by switching options (e.g., implicitDiffusion)
453    o small changes for diagnostics (gad_biharm_?.F, arguments of S/R impldiff.F)
454    o clean up build options files for SunOS, in particular
455      - remove -traditional from xmakedepend
456      - change -xarch=v9 to -xarch=native for f77
457      - restore use of make (not gmake)
458      - add CC=gcc if using g77
459    o changes per discussion of AM, JMC, & EH3 today:
460      - move redundant "grid" variables out of "state" -- in preparation of
461        creating proper CF-style coordinate variables and in recognition
462        that any/all grid variables can be easily copied (eg. w/NCO) from
463        the grid files into any of the other NetCDF files
464      - *always* output grid variables with MDSIO (this will eventually be
465        changed)
466      - output MNC grid file if useMNC is true
467    o every instance of _END_MASTER() has been found and replaced with
468      _END_MASTER( myThid ) in order to satisfy certain picky Sun
469      preprocessors
470    o re-arrange diagnostics pkg initialisation:
471     - allow each package to extend the available diagnostics list
472     - add some checking and fix small problems (multi-threaded, ...)
473     - new S/R diagnostics_fill (replace fill_diagnostics):
474       look through the short list of active diag. (instead of the long list)
475       create function DIAGNOSTICS_IS_ON to tell if a diagnostics is active
476    
477    checkpoint57a_post
478    o this set of changes restores TAMC compatibility
479      tested for global_ocean.90x40x15 adjoint on trough
480      (what a pain)
481    
482    checkpoint57a_pre
483    o some modifs in tools/build_options for sunos
484    o call ctrl_pack for ctrl at end for optimcycle=0
485    
486    checkpoint57
487    o add horizontal bi-harmonic viscosity for vertical velocity
488      - new parameter viscA4W (defaults to viscA4)
489      - affects only non-hydrostatic code
490      - to be done: no-slip lateral boundary conditions
491    o switch back to "sflux = sflux - runoff" in exf_getforcing.F
492    o implement Implicit Vertical advection for pTracers
493    o depth convergence accelerator: replace deltaTtracer by dTtracerLev(k)
494      (implemented also for implicit vertical diffusion & advection)
495    o OBCS: extend application of tracer open boundary conditions
496      to a strip beyond the boundary of width Olx/Oly
497    o add call monitor to TAF set of required calls (flow directives)
498      and include in natl_box_adjoint
499    o untangle a few ifdefs related to cost, ctrl, autodiff
500      untangel a few ALLOW_ECCO_OPTIMIZATION
501    o Apply Cooper & Haines representative estimates also at sub-surface (k=Nr)
502      (theta2, salt2 in ecco_cost_weights)
503    
504    checkpoint56c_post
505    o OBCS as control variables
506      - update ctrl_ad_diff.list, obcs_ad_diff.list
507      - remove balance of obcs controls from default
508      - fix index bug nobcs in ctrl_init
509      - fix dummy fields filen in ctrl_pack
510      - add dummy weights for obcs
511    o lsopt: comment out fort.94 output
512    o optim:
513      - remove unnecessary header files
514      - adjusted namelists
515      - add xerbla.F to Makefile
516    o exf:
517      - multiple modifications of exf_check_range
518      - unit change in exf_init_runoff from [m/year] to [m/s]
519    o mdsio:
520      - i/o-vector change debugLevel from debLevA to debLevB
521    
522    checkpoint56b_post
523    o collect all ptracers output in an new routine (PTRACERS_OUTPUT) that
524      is called from DO_THE_MODEL_IO
525      - rename PTRACERS_STATV_WRITE to PTRACERS_WRITE_TIMEAVE
526      - introduce new parameter PTRACERS_dumpFreq (defaults to dumpFreq)
527      - clean up PTRACERS_WRITE_TIMEAVE a little
528    o add another verification experiment that tests both the cfc-pkg and
529      the gchem-pkg with GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING undefined, that is with
530      reactive tendencies treated inline with regular timestepping
531    o testreport previously did a lousy job of comparing small numbers, so
532      we (Ed and Martin) changed the  way the cut-off of 1.e-12 is
533      implemented in the little c-progam tmp_cmpnum.c which is embedded in
534      testreport.
535    o ptracers_monitor: bug fix for MPI
536    
537    checkpoint56a_post
538    o GCHEM: finish reorganizating the package
539      - forward_step calls GCHEM_CALC_TENDENDY, which computes gchemTendency
540        (introduces another 3D-array for each passive tracer, but only if
541        GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING is undefined. For GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING
542        gchemTendency is not needed because the timestep is done separately)
543      - gchemTendency is added to gPtr in GCHEM_ADD_TENDENCY
544      - GCHEM is now---more or less cleanly---separate from PTRACERS
545      - to bo done: handling of surfaceForcingPtr that is needed for KPP not
546        so clear to me how that should be done in a general way.
547    o CFC: improve formatting of output in CFC_ATMOS
548    o PTRACERS:
549      - rename GCHEM_MONITOR to PTRACERS_MONITOR and call it from MONITOR, so
550        that ALL experiments with ptracers enable can be checked. This makes
551        GCHEM_MONITOR obsolete.
552      - include a runtime parameter PTRACERS_monitorFreq that defaults to
553        monitorFreq
554      - set default PTRACERS_write_mdsio to false if PTRACERS_write_mnc is true
555    o add PTRACERS (PTR0[1-5]) to testreport output
556    o exf_check_range:
557      * default changed to .TRUE.
558      * will check values for niter0 if debLevA, every timestep if debLevB
559      * STOP in exf_check_range if 'out of range'
560      * range chosen generous to allow for potential extema
561      TBD: a version with stricter range
562           permitted range would be runtime parameters
563    o GMredi:
564      - fix ldd97 slope limit ; extend valid domain of Psi-Bolus ;
565      - change S/R GRAD_SIGMA to be valid in the overlap on CS-grid.
566      - change the default GMREDI_OPTIONS.h: compile everything except Visbeck
567    o GCHEM:
568      - move call to GCHEM_FORCING_SEP, so that it is now called before
569        the blocking exchanges to avoid computing halos in GCHEM_FORCING_SEP
570      - introduced a useGCHEM runtime flag and applied it everywhere.
571      - renamed PTRACERS_SEPARATE_FORCING to GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING;
572        this flag is now only visible within GCHEM-pkg routines.
573      - moved gchem_forcing_int temporarily into ptracers_forcing, this will
574        be replaced by a 3D array that is computed before thermodynamics; for
575        this, the tracer ID iTracer had to be included into the parameter list
576        of ptracers_forcing
577      - set up forward_step to call gchem_forcing, that will replace
578        gchem_forcing_int in ptracers_forcing
579      - cleaning up
580    o small cleaning of exch2: remove files that are also in eesupp/src
581    
582    checkpoint56
583    o AIM: read land-Fraction earlier (from ini-fixed) and monitor land at nIter0
584    o mnc: cleanup "full" files--fixes out-of-memory problem
585    o ECCO-GODAE
586      * model/, pkg/, code/, input/ now complete w.r.t. ECCO-GODAE production setup
587      * fully merged and updated from SIO code
588        windstress sign change affects
589        - exf_inscal_[u/v]stress
590        - sign of xx_tau[u/v] adjustments
591        - signs in cost_scat
592      * ctrl_get_gen: avoid update of tau[u/v] for first few days
593      * natl_box_adjoint updated and compressed
594      * 2-level checkpoint switch added
595        (tested in EXP. 1 of natl_box_adjoint)
596      * new switch doInitXX to avoid init. of xx_... in optimcycle=0
597    o SVD
598      * first complete, non-hacked version for SVD calculations
599      * all interfaces clean w.r.t to handling of xx_..., adxx_..., g_xx_...
600        performed via direct access files admtlm_vector.it????
601        (via ctrl_[un]pack)
602      * optimcycle is used for ARPACK iteration counter
603        (note: adxx_... is iterated, rather than xx_...; latter is constant!)
604      * EV problem ok w.r.t. L2-norm in tangent space; need to check other norms
605        and add linear transforms where necessary
606      * controls are initial/final SST, SSS (can be extended; need to check
607        ctrl_set_[un]pack_xyz.F according to ctrl_set_[un]pack_xy.F
608    o mdsio: filename info to both stderr, stdout
609    o exf: exf_inscal_runoff: separated default conversion [m/year] -> [m/sec]
610      from sign change
611    
612    checkpoint55j_post
613    o isolate dissipation tendency (allow to keep it out off AB) in V.I form.
614      affects (truncation level) output.txt of global_ocean.cs32x15(&.thsice)
615    o add consistent build directories and .cvsignore files to verification
616    o added viscA4GridMin and viscA4GridMax for more control on biharmonic viscosity
617    o make all subroutines 30 or less characters in length for certain older
618      compilers to work (a thorough search only turns up two routines in
619      pkg/ptracers)
620    o allow (vecinv only) a different horiz. viscosity for Divergence and Vorticity;
621      affects (truncation level) output.txt of global_ocean.cs32x15(&.thsice)
622    
623    checkpoint55i_post
624    o change arrays for total vertical diffusivity (2.D if explicit,
625      3.D if implicit) ; each ptracer uses its own background value.
626    o added mnc/NetCDF output capability to ocn_compon_interf
627      - added bits to verification/cpl_aim+ocn so that it can run on
628        ITRDA and other clusters without the mpirun "-wd" option
629    o fixed wayward endif in mom_fluxform.F that messed up cyclindrical
630      configuration
631    o give MNC the ability to create additional files rather than
632      exceeding a specified file size limit "MNC_MAX_FILESIZE"
633      - the default is just less than 2GB which is a practical limit
634        on many systems
635    o Compute the non-local term using either KPP vertical diffusivity (=default)
636       or the total vertical diffusivity (when KPP_ghatUseTotalDiffus=T)
637    
638    checkpoint55h_post
639    o add verification test "vermix"
640    o remove all the *_ioinc flags and replace with the single global
641      outputTypesInclusive flag
642    o allow to set a vertical profile of vertical diffusivity for T & S
643    o call PACKAGE_BOOT & PACKAGES_READPARMS just after INI_PARMS
644    o useMNC moved from data.mnc to data.pkg
645    
646    checkpoint55g_post
647    o Renaming carbon AD experiments to comply with testreport conventions
648    o Updating adjoint of Held-Suarez hs94.1x64x5
649    o Fixing directives for non-ECCO forward_step, after ECCO directives
650      have been fixed to avoid recomp. of do_oceanic_phys
651      Works well for global_ocean.90x40x15,
652      but recomp. issue remains for carbon
653    o Updating adjoint output for natl_box_adjoint after
654      pkg/ecco has been modified (see taga c55d_post)
655    
656    checkpoint55f_post
657    o rename to timeave_init_fixed
658    
659    checkpoint55e_post
660    o some delicate re-shuffle of store directives to avoid one
661      extra call of do_oceanic_physics
662      affects ecco_the_main_loop.F, do_oceanic_physics.F
663      checkpoint_lev1_directives.h
664    o NB: this may break global_ocean adjoint temporarily,
665      but it is clear how to fix it. Will do later, need this now.
666    
667    checkpoint55d_post
668    o ECCO specific cost function terms (up-to-date with 1x1 runs)
669    o ecco_cost_weights is modified to 1x1 runs
670    o modifs to allow observations to be read in as
671      single file or yearly files
672    o enable to read exf forcing fields as either
673      single file or yearly files (flag useExfYearlyFields)
674    checkpoint55d_pre
675    
676    o switch between 2-level and 3-level checkpointing
677    o add ability of MNC to write local and "partial" (eg. 2D slices where
678      the full 3D field is never actually stored) arrays to NetCDF files
679      with the correct (that is, the complete multi-dimensional) set of
680      array indicies
681      - used in mom_vecinv() to write the diagFreq output
682      - tested (demonstrated) in verification/aim.5l_cs
683    o further mnc-ification
684      - add verification/lab_sea to the list with mnc setups
685      - fix undefined mnc v-names in cd_code
686      - add kpp to mnc output (both snapshot and timeave)
687    o non-hydrostatic code
688      - added horizontal viscosity parameter viscAhW for w, that replaces viscAh
689        in calc_gw.F
690      - defaults to viscAh
691      - this is useful, when I want to use viscAh=0 (e.g., only biharmonic
692        friction or Leith) in non-hydrostatic mode, as long as there is
693        no biharmonic friction and/or Leigth or equivalent for vertical velocity.
694    o pkg/cost
695      extend simple cost functions to treat time mean quantities
696      (T,U,V) via cost_accumulate_state from cost_tile
697    o multidimAdvection on CS-grid: implement the full 3 pass ; overlap needs to
698        be 2 times larger than the minimum size the advection scheme requires.
699        now get a perfect conservation of salt in advect_cs test-exp (updated)
700    o GGL90 (Gaspar's TKE mixed layer)
701      - add horizontal diffusion of TKE, requires exchanges in
702        do_fields_blocking_exchanges, horizontal diffusivity is zero by
703        default. In OPA there is no horizontal diffusion of TKE but the
704        mixing coefficients are computed from a horizontal average of TKE of
705        6 points or so. I think that diffusion has a little more physical
706        justification.
707      - clean up ggl90_calc in the hope of reducing memory usage (this hope
708        was in vain)
709      - mask tke-variable in ggl90_init
710    o fix mask Pb in multidimAdvection on CS-grid (still a small Pb with ipass)
711    o fix biharmonic diffusion on CS-grid.
712    o more obcs stuff
713      - added obcs_external_fields_load as an alternative to the EXF-pkg option
714        for reading boundary values. This routine is called from
715        obcs_prescribe_read
716      - updated obcs_check
717      - changed sponge layer relaxation parameter units for days to seconds
718      - turned off sponge layer by default
719      - changed argument list of OBCS_CALC to myTime+deltaTclock
720      - fixed about 35 bugs in obcs_external_fields_load
721    
722    checkpoint55c_post
723    o obcs stuff
724      - new runtime flags useOBCSprescribe, useOBCSbalance
725      - re-arranged obcs_calc
726      - moved exf_getobcs to obcs_prescibe_read
727        obcs_prescibe_read is called after ORLANSKI stuff
728        and independent of it (executable can contain all).
729      - updated obcs_check
730      - added exchanges for U,V,gU,gV for useOBCSprescribe=.TRUE.
731        These may be necessary only if tangential velocities are
732        prescribed at OB, not sure, needs testing.
733    o make the MNC_CW_ADD_VATTR_* subroutines all take scalar arguments
734      which simplifies the calls and passes the ifc check-bounds test
735    
736    checkpoint55b_post
737    o add a 2D scalar, Z location, exchange_2 routine.
738    o EXCH_UV for CS-grid: add one u,v in the corner-halo region, allows
739      to compute vorticity on a wider stencil [e.g., vort3(0,1)&(1,0)]
740      affects advect_cs results (for the wrong reason): update output.txt
741    o use a more standard discretization for biharmonic viscosity ;
742     (original version still available with #define MOM_VI_ORIGINAL_VISCA4 )
743      affects results of dome set-up: update output.txt
744    o fix gad_advection.F (CubedSphere part), back to version 1.23
745    o fix bug in mom_vi_del2uv.F (CubedSphere part).
746    
747    checkpoint55a_post
748    o merged code to
749      * prescribe/read time-dependent open boundaries
750        (works in conjunction with exf, cal)
751      * sponge layer code for open boundaries
752      * each boundary N/S/E/W now has its own CPP option
753        (healthy for the adjoint)
754    
755    checkpoint55
756    o up-to-date adjoint of previous breaks
757      - natl_box_adjoint: problem for exp 12, 13: cost = 0. needs fix
758      - global_ocean_ebm: adjoint still needs fix (TLM ok)
759      - global_ocean.90x40x15: extended GMREDI_OPTIONS.h
760      - carbon: * remove tr1-related adjoint verification
761                * add ptracer as control variable
762    o remove all tr1-related code (ALLOW_PASSIVE_TRACER)
763      (adjoint stuff still has some tr1 'names', but all use ptracer arrays)
764    
765    checkpoint54f_post
766    o in verification/carbin/ remove experiment related to
767      ALLOW_PASSIVE_TRACER (array tr1 etc)
768      code_ad/ input_ad/ results_ad
769    
770    o add two new packages
771      - ggl90, TKE-model of Gaspar et al. (1990), Blanke+Delecluse (1993)
772        + subject to optimization (memory)
773      - opps, OPPS (ocean penetrative plume scheme) of Paluszkiewicz+Romea (1997)
774        + subject to reordering (many GOTOs in the original code)
775        + so far opps is called for every (i,j) point, and then operates in
776          the vertical; one may want to reorder the scheme in order operate in
777          horizontal slabs at the cost of (a lot of) memory, at least ten new 3D
778          fields)
779    o overhaul of IO so that we now have flags for MDSIO and/or MNC
780      - all verification tests compile and run with linux_ia32_g77
781      - defaults are compatible with current input files--nothing
782        should change if you were not previously using MNC
783      - MNC output has been added in numerous places (eg. timeave)
784        but there are still a few writes not yet do-able with MNC
785        (this is in progress)
786      - flags now allow for either/or/both use of MDSIO and MNC and
787        documentation will soon follow
788      - numerous small formatting cleanups for ProTeX
789    o add version info (via BUILD_INFO.h) to MNC and stdout
790    
791    checkpoint54e_post
792    o add two new packages
793      - pp81 (Packanowski and Philander, 1981), Richardson number and
794        stratification dependent mixing
795      - my82 (Mellor and Yamada, 1982) level 2 turbulence closure scheme
796      - these scheme operate in a similar manner as KPP (without ghat, of
797        course), however there is only one diffusivity that is used for both
798        temperature and salinity (and passive tracers)ç
799    o add offline package
800    o add "verification/dic_example" which contains a dic-gchem-ptracer setup
801      provided by Stephanie Dutkiewicz
802    o genmake2: add ability to search for C compilers and cleanup test output
803      - fixes recent SX-6 problems and should help with others (eg. HP-UX)
804    
805    checkpoint54d_post
806    o data.diagnostics: if levels() is unspecified then ALL levels are diagnosed
807    o bug fix in pkg/cal/cal_addtime.F for TheCalendar='model' day count is wrong,
808      leading to additional shift by 5 days each year of integration
809       (i.e. leading to considerable offset over the years)
810    o update global_ocean.cs32x15/thsice: use z* + RealFW + staggerTimeStep
811    o start with no AB and no initial filtering (staggerTimeStep):
812      change the results of test-exp: hs94.128x64x5, hs94.1x64x5 & hs94.cs-32x32x5
813    o move ocean specific S/R calls from forward_step.F to do_oceanic_phys.F
814      (external loading & cpl import/export stay in forward_step.F)
815    o update coupling interface to work with new staggerTimeStep
816    o change MDSIO ptracers_pickup.
817    o fix a bug in Flux deriv. vs Ts (pkg/aim_v23/phy_suflux_sice.F);
818    o genmake2 fixes so netcdf now works on halem ("osf1_alpha_*")
819    o bugs fixed in kpp_calc.F (ustarY) and external_forcing.F (Qsw & Partial-cell)
820    
821    checkpoint54c_post
822    o replace surfaceTendency U,V,S,T,Tice,Ptr by surfaceForcing U,V,S,T,Tice,Ptr
823      this affects (truncation error) output.txt of test-exp:
824       global_ocean_ebm,_pressure,.cs32x15(&.thsice), lab_sea & natl_box
825    o pkg/kpp: replace pMask by maskC to reduce memory size (one 3.D array)
826    o change Qnet to always be the net heat flux, (+upward).
827      affects (truncation error) output of natl_box exp.: updated
828    o define the max number of passive tracers in PTRACERS_SIZE.h
829    o start to test mnc routinely in exp0
830    o add sea-ice loading (sIceLoad) as a new forcing field.
831    
832    checkpoint54b_post
833    o add testreport "-j JOBS" option for parallel builds (tested and pretty
834       impressive on Altix and Opteron systems)
835    o diagnostics can now write NetCDF files through the mnc package
836    o staggerTimeStep & NLFS: update pkg aim_v23 & thsice; update aim.5l_cs output
837    o staggerTimeStep & multi-Dim-Advec: Exch(U,V) added
838    o staggerTimeStep & NLFS: rescale T & S surface tendencies.
839      affects (truncation error) output of lab_sea & natl_box exp.: updated
840    o change pickup _cd & _ptracers (old pickup restart: usePickupBeforeC54=.T.)
841    
842    checkpoint54a_post
843    o re-write staggerTimeStep: step fwd U,V and then T,S (reverse the order).
844    o change pickup file (to restart from old pickup, set usePickupBeforeC54=.T.)
845    o get a perfect restart when using RealFreshWaterFlux + NLFS (not finished)
846    o update output of all exp. that use staggerTimeStep (except hs94.cs & 2D)
847      + internal_wave (shift in writing cg2d_ini_res)
848    checkpoint54a_pre
849    
850    o require forcing_In_AB=.FALSE. and remove surfaceTendencyTice from pkg/seaice
851      - modified verification/lab_sea and natl_box_adjoint accordingly
852    
853  checkpoint54  checkpoint54
854  checkpoint53g_post  checkpoint53g_post
855  o prepare splitting of thermodynamics: store convect.counter in common block  o prepare splitting of thermodynamics: store convect.counter in common block
