4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o add new package rbcs (for relaxing ptracers at boundaries/depth/surface etc)
8    o add new offset feature to offline pkg (plus minor cleanup)
9    o cfc fixes for final year of integration
10    o clean up GCHEM_OPTIONS.h/DIC_OPTIONS.h (all options should
11      be in GCHEM_OPTIONS).
12    
13    checkpoint57x_post
14    o fix testreport Pb in multiple test experiment.
15    o cleanup our namelist syntax in verification:
16      - make it more F95 standards compliant (some work still needed)
17      - allows the vast majority of our tests to work with gfortran
18    o Non-Hydrostatic:
19     - put all NH variables (formerly in DYNVARS.h & GW.h) in NH_VARS.h
20     - fix exchange calls for CS-grid using the new EXCH_S3D_RL.
21    o Allow to apply AB on T,S rather than on AB(gT,gS):
22     - implemented within #ifdef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3
23     - use the same arrays (gtNm,gsNm) to hold tracer field at previous
24       time-steps (if AB(T,S)) and tendencies (if AB(gT,gS)).
25     - need a "clever" read_pickup to restart from the other AB formulation
26    o move local commom bloc /GlobalLo/ (used for singleCpuIO) in EESUPPORT.h
27    o remove some unused variables (reduces number of compiler warnings)
28    o adjoint
29      * Disable useVariableViscosity for adjoint for time being
30        (there are a number of extensive recomputations)
31      * Initialize certain variables needed for adjoint
32    
33    checkpoint57w_post
34    o pkg/mdsio: use MAX_LEN_FNAM (instead of hard coded 80) for file-names
35                 fix the singleCpuIO RS version of MDSWRITEFIELD
36       and add a WARNING if using globalFiles=T with multi-processors.
37    o write grid-file(s) in only one format (MDS or MNC): default=MNC (if
38      using MNC); can force MDS output by setting writegrid_mnc=F in data.mnc
39    o tracer advection scheme:
40      add DST-2 (=Lax-Wendroff) & 1rst order upwind schemes (the way to get
41       those 2 schemes before, changing GAD_FLUX_LIMITER.h + to recompile,
42       was not very convenient).
43      add implicit version for DST-3 & DST3_Flux_Limit vertical advection;  
44       (further tests needed for the implicit DST & Flux-Limiter schemes).
45    o PTRACERS: added namelist parameter PTRACERS_ref in analogy to tRef
46      and sRef for convenience, handy, when you want to initialize
47      ptracers in a large domain with a constant non-zero value. Also,
48      untangle ptracers_init.F a little.
49    
50    checkpoint57v_post
51    o change dome exp. to use variable viscosity in side-drag terms.
52    o remove all the files from the cfc_offline test since they are now
53      incorporated into tutorial_cfc_offline which has been producing
54      identical results for a few days of testing
55    o add new parameter: sideDragFactor to enable half-slip-side BC
56      and change side-drag S/R to use viscosity from mom_calc_visc
57      (can switch back by setting sideDragFactor=0.); affects results at
58      truncation level; regenerate output for exp.: global_ocean.cs32x10(x3),
59       global_ocean_ebm, global_ocean_pressure, matrix_example & MLAdjust(x5).
60    o vorticity & strain are now computed without masking, to account for
61      no-slip-side BC in variable viscosity calculation ; mask is applied
62      anyway later on, before computing advection/coriolis terms.
63    o modify exp4 to test new obcs support for reading from external files
64      and for passive tracers
65    o fix behavior of ptracers_monitor when monitor output is written to a
66      netcdf-file; still not independent of monitor.F (writes in the same
67      file).
68    o change default value of tRef (put a uniform, meaningful value for ocean
69      & atmos) and initialize sRef (was missing, as Martin mentioned).
70    o Redefine viscC?Leith*.  Change the coefficients of Leith viscosity
71      to be proportional to enstrophy dissipation length.  Thus,
72       viscC?leith?_new=pi*(viscC?leith?_old)^(1/3)
73      This is now consistent with Smagorinsky and with the manual.
74    
75    checkpoint57u_post
76    o OBCS and PTRACERS: add open boundary support for passive tracers
77      - either use homogenous (pseudo) v.Neumann conditions or prescribe
78        OB-values from file; this is not different from the way theta and salinity
79        are treated
80      - however, Orlanski-radiation conditions are not supported, and the model
81        will stop if you use pTracers and Orlanski at the same time.
82      - beefed up the rountine obcs_external_fields_load: now only those open
83        boundary values are overwritten with values from files for which there
84        are really files, otherwise the OB-fields remain untouched. This makes
85        it possible to use different OBs at different ends of the domain (as
86        with EXF)
87    o reduce number of exch calls in shap_filt (s2).
88    o CS-grid: fix divergence contribution to Leith viscosity. Affects (@
89      truncation level) 4/5 MLAdjust test results (11&12 digits match).
90    
91    checkpoint57t_post
92    o test biharmonic viscosity + no-slip with exp: global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
93    o finish adding brackets (coriolis S/R, vecinv) in multi-terms sum to get
94      same truncation, independent of the face number: affects affects several
95      test. exp.: Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
96    o fix bug in mom_v_sidedrag (biharmonic viscosity was counted 2 times);
97      note that biharmonic viscosity + no-slip was not tested in any experiment.
98    o fix bug in non-linear free-surf side-drag ; generate new output for
99      global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & global_ocean_pressure.
100    o make mnc honor the writeBinaryPrec flag for most kinds of output
101    o eesupp: split EEPARAMS into EESIZE/EEPARAMS and add a vector global sum
102    o minor change in averaging W (mom_vi_?_vertshear.F) that affects truncation
103      error; update output from global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
104    o add brackets in multi-terms sum to get same truncation, independent of
105      the face number (manage to get exactly same value of gU,gV at the cs-edge)
106      affects several test. exp. Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice).
107    o Clean, new version of mom_calc_visc.  Adds a new feature, viscAhRemax
108      and viscA4Remax, which allow one to limit the minimum viscosity by specifying
109      a maximum grid-scale Reynolds number.  Also, changes all length calculations
110      in the case of grid anisotropy to geometric mean of dx**2 and dy**2.
111      Suggested values of viscosity parameters found in mom_calc_visc.
112      Many new viscosity diagnostics available.
113    
114    checkpoint57s_post
115    o Add clearing-house for viscosity calculations, mom_calc_visc and
116      correct numerous bugs in LeithD and Smagorinsky discretizations.  
117      mom_calc_visc now allows for Smagorinsky, Leith and LeithD to be
118      used simultaneously, and to be used in mom_vecinv and mom_fluxform.
119      Mom_vecinv can be used with standard viscous calculation (mom_vi_hdissip.F)
120      and with Strain-Tension viscous term calculation (mom_hdissip.F).  
121      The Strain-Tension form is now called with useStrainTensonVisc=.true.
122      ViscAhStrain and viscAhTension are now retired.
123    o diagnostics "VISCAHD" & "VISCA4D" replace "VISCAH" & "VISCA4".
124    o In response to JMC's bug report, genmake2 now ignores any soft-links
125      that it finds in the *current* directory when searching for files.
126      Soft-links found in any other source directories will still work as
127      they did before.
128    o add HAVE_SETRLSTK define and useSETRLSTK flag (eedata) which calls
129      a C routine to unlimit the stack size
130    o mnc-ify pkg/aim snapshot vars
131    o mnc-ify pkg/land as requested by Daniel
132    o various changes to mnc including:
133      - all files use the new "BASENAME[[.ITER].{t|f}NUM].nc" format
134      - output can now be grouped so that all files within a group
135          change the ITER portion of their names in lock-step together
136      - can now read ("global") PER-FACE (in addition to PER-TILE) files
137          and works with both EXCH1 and EXCH2 (but needs more testing)
138      - writing works for all verification test cases w/ g77 on Linux
139    
140    checkpoint57r_post
141    o make MNC variable initialization happen earlier
142    o add diagnostics for (almost) each term of the momentum Eq.
143    o remove SST,SSS,UVEL_k2,VVEL_k2 diagnostics.
144    o move pkg timeave out of pkg-groups "oceanic" & "atmospheric" (pkg/pkg_groups)
145    o remove MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT option ;
146      add "dumpInitAndLast" to replace "nodumps" (and MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT).
147    o move some basic S/R (used elsewhere in the code) from pkg/mdsio to eesupp/src
148      allows to compile without pkg/mdsio (& test successfully hs94.1x64x5)
149    o add MNC output for adjoint of EXF (adexf), SEAICE (adseaice)
150    o add time-dependent SST, SSS control
151    o cost terms in ecco/ modularized (new cost_generic.F)
152    o cost_averages routines are modularized (new cost_averagesgeneric.F)
153    o new infrastructure for seaice model vs. obs misfits in seaice/
154      * driver from the_main_loop.F is seaice_cost_driver.F
155      * first term is AREA vs. SMR observation misfit (ALLOW_SEAICE_COST_SMR_AREA)
156      * gradient check in Exp. 6a of natl_box_adjoint/
157    o natl_box_adjoint input_seaice for Lab. Sea now available online via wget
158      (see README file)
159    
160    checkpoint57q_post
161    o fix initialisation Pb in calc_gw (get NANs in exp5 with g77)
162    o fix annoying months-old bug in mnc/mdsio output for seaice pkg
163      - bug was reported by Jean-Michel and Ian Fenty
164    o fix initialization Pb in AIM-Ocean coupled model (aim_sice2aim.F)
165      update exp. cpl_aim+ocn output.
166    o Implement 4-level checkpointing: AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
167      Needed for high-res. runs with large global files
168      to be able to limit tapelev size
169    o Changed some tests for adjoint:
170      * carbon/ now tests AUTODIFF_2_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
171      * natl_box_adjoint/code_bulk/ tests AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
172      * global_ocean.90x40x15/ back to default 3-level checkpointing
173    o Modifications to enable scripted COMMON to MODULE conversion
174      * verification/OpenAD/code/ has necessary scripts and description;
175      * converts, compiles and runs successfully;
176    
177    checkpoint57p_post
178    o reading of delXfile & delYfile moved from ini_parms.F to ini_grid.F
179    o move ${PKG}_MNC_INIT from ${PKG}_READ_PARAMS to ${PKG}_INIT_FIXED
180      (already the case for some pkgs, including recent MNC_init, e.g. thsice)
181    o call CALC_GW from DYNAMICS (instead of from FORWARD_STEP)
182    o Dissipation & phiHyd gradient are always added to gU,gV in timestep.F
183      (was already the case for dissipation with mom_vecinv,
184       and also the case for grad.PhiHyd when staggered-timeStep)
185      This will allow to put dissipation out-off the AB time-stepping.
186     Unfortunately, affects truncation error. Update output of exp. that "fails"
187      (cg2d matching number) and leave the others for later: front_relax(10),
188      global_ocean_pressure(10),ideal_2D_oce(10),internal_wave(9),lab_sea(12),
189      matrix_example(7!),natl_box(12),plume_on_slope(11),vermix(12x3,11x2).
190    
191    checkpoint57o_post
192    o fix MNC/MDSIO flags in PTRACERS so that (1) it works, and
193      (2) its ready to be documented during the 20050801 DocFest
194    o MNC-ify the gmredi package -- tested and works w/ and w/o mnc
195      for ideal_2D_oce and lab_sea on linux_ia32_g77
196    o set to #undef CTRL_SET_OLD_MAXCVARS_30
197      in global1x1_tot/code_seaice_adj to access indices 32, 33
198      (worth another tag)
199    
200    checkpoint57n_post
201    o adding precip control xx_precip 32
202    o adding swflux control xx_swflux 33
203    o Replacing 10 forcing penalty cost routines by 1 generic.
204    o Implementing partitioning in time-mean and variable adjustment
205      for atmos. state.
206    o Time-mean constant error is now read in data.ecco (instead of hard-coded)
207    o in natl_box_adjoint:
208      * updated exp 1 to 10
209        (but does not have time-mean vs. variable split results yet)
210    o updated global1x1/*_seaice_adj/
211      to incorporate latest changes
212    o enable useSingleCpuIO for mdsio vector routines
213      (applies in particular to tapelev I/O)
214    o removed inefficient K-loop in all active_file*control*.F
215    
216    checkpoint57m_post
217    o re-arrange exp. adjustment.cs-32x32x1 (adjust_nlfs.cs-32x32x1 merge into)
218      and advect_cs (use EXCH-2 and standard cs-32 grid files).
219    o pkg/exch2: filling of face-corner halo regions is optional
220      (ifdef W2_FILL_NULL_REGIONS) and is turned off by default.
221    
222    checkpoint57l_post
223     tag before updating tutorials (pre-release-2)
224    o add cos & sin of grid-direction orientation angle (curvilinear grid only,
225       for output and interpolation of input fields onto model grid)
226    o fix radius in mom_v_metric_cylinder.F (wrong by dy/2).
227       Affects results of exp. rotating_tank ; update output.txt.
228    o pkg/diagnostics: 2 new S/R to fill a diagnostics using a scaling factor
229          and taking the square quantity and/or using a fraction-weight field.
230    o fix aim_diagnostics_init.F mate numbers.
231    o add mnc output capability to diagnostics/diagstat and update
232      our cvsignore files for the ACSII output generated
233    
234    checkpoint57k_post
235    o lab_sea now uses diagnostics package and provides a suite of
236      new EXF diagnostics output.
237    
238    checkpoint57j_post
239    o exf
240      * bug fix in exf_bulkformulae for psimh (spotted by Eliyahu Biton):
241        Bracket missing in eqn. for psimh (eqn. 7 of Large & Pond, 1982);
242        terms -2*ATAN(x) + pi/2 were added to both stable and unstable case.
243      * extended diagnostics output
244        - now includes all EXF variables
245        - hs, hl moved to common block
246        - separate S/R for diagnostics, called after ctrl vector is added
247        - name changed for EXFsw -> EXFswnet, EXFlw -> EXFlwnet
248        - EXFqnet contains true Qnet (i.e. includes qsw)
249      * updated verif. lab_sea, global_with_exf
250      * Rearranging hflux (exf_mapfields -> exf_getforcing)
251        to ensure that diagnostics sees a true EXFqnet
252    o add matlab scripts for CS-grid vectors (in utils/cs_grid)
253    o diagnostics pkg: change pointers so that 1 diagnostic can be used
254      several times with different frequencies.
255    o mnc-ify the thsice package as requested by Daniel Enderton
256      - the monitor--MNC output needs work
257      - many attributes need to be added (most are currently blank)
258    o mnc-ify theaim_v23 package as requested by Daniel Enderton
259      - many attributes need to be added (most are currently blank)
260    o remove "groundAtK1" & "rkFac" (replaced by usingPCoords & -rkSign)
261    o add Sadourny like discretization to the 4th.O vorticity advection scheme
262    o fix bug in rStar code (calc_r_star.F) when used with topo/bathy.
263      update output.txt from: aim.5l_cs (& .thSI), cpl_aim+ocn,
264         fizhi-gridalt-hs and global_ocean.cs32x15 (& .thsice).
265    o fix few little things to avoid floating error with -ftrapuv (ifort v9)
266     (ini_spherical_polar_grid.F, calc_r_star.F, monitor/mon_surfcor.F)
267    
268    checkpoint57i_post
269    o Diagnostics package was changed: diagnostic allocation is now deactivated
270      by setting an empty file name in the namelist (used to be by setting 0 frequency)
271    o momentum advection (VI form) options: activate 4th.O vorticity Coriolis ;
272      add 1rst Order upwind vertical Shear.
273    o add a quick fix for A/B checkpointing in OFFLINE mode
274    o add IGNORE_TIME define and -ignore_time option to genmake2 as an
275      end-run around the C/Fortran linking horror in eesup/src/timers.F
276    o added pkg/runclock: allows user to terminate run based on wall clock
277    o added non-hydrostatic scaling parameter: nh_am2
278    o pkg/my82: futile attempt to make results compiler-independent by adding
279      some "_d 0", etc. no effect.
280    o for mnc output, fill the 'T' coordinate var with myTime and create a
281      separate 'iter' variable for iteration count
282    o pkg/diagnostics:
283      add new capability: output of Global/Regional & per-level statistics ;
284      tested against monitor output (including land & thSIce) on various exp.
285    o make seaice-pkg I/O type flags (MNC/MDS) more standard.
286    
287    checkpoint57h_done
288      tag after changing user customized files (DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h,
289      data.diagnostics, data.gchem, data.ptracers) is done.
290    
291    o pkg/diagnostics: prepare for Global/Regional statistics.
292      add 2nd namelist in data.diagnostics and update DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h
293    o remove "baseTime" (no used) from arg. list of DIFF_BASE_MULTIPLE
294      and rename it: DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE
295    
296    checkpoint57h_post
297    o move tIter0 from data.gchem to PTRACERS_Iter0 in data.ptracers
298    o pkg/diagnostics: change output frequency, now in seconds (instead
299      of Nb of iterations). This requires to change data.diagnostics.
300    checkpoint57h_pre
301    
302    o in mnc, let the user create the output dir if both mnc_outdir_date
303      and mnc_outdir_num are false
304    o add fflags() to pkg/diagnostics which allows one to specify, on a
305      per-file basis, the file precision [default behavior is unchanged]
306    o added diagnostics to pkg/kpp, including computation of mixed layer
307      depth based on a temperature/density criterion
308    o updated verification/natl_box to test the new pkg/kpp diagnostics
309    o bugs fixed (with useAbsVorticity=T & with useJamartMomAdv=T)
310    o test AB-3 code with 4th.Order advection scheme (advect_xy/input.ab3_c4)
311    o fix mnc flags in pkg/seaice so that they are "owned" by seaice,
312      not mnc -- this mistake was found by JMC and is now corrected
313    
314    checkpoint57g_post
315    o add Adams-Bashforth 3rd Order time stepping:
316      - default remains AB-2 (#undef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3)
317      - not yet implemented with NH, CD_Scheme, pTracers, MNC_pickup ...
318    checkpoint57g_pre
319    
320    o make lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax spatially varying
321      (default remains spatially uniform constant based on tau)
322    o added new control variables
323      * init. uVel, vVel, etanN
324      * lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax
325    o separate masks used for ctrl_pack/unpack 'from write_grid' output
326      (suggested by G. Forget)
327    
328    checkpoint57f_post
329    o add parameter "baseTime" = model base time = time at iteration zero
330      new function DIFF_BASE_MULTIPLE (replace DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE) to
331      account for baseTime shift
332    o move Coriolis arrays from PARAMS.h to GRID.h
333    checkpoint57f_pre
334    
335    o mnc-ifying the seaice package
336    o introduced an alternative length scale calculation for use in the limiting
337      maximum viscosity (off by default, see mom_vi_hdissip.F for details)
338    o S/R ptracers_calc_diff: argument list bug for CALL KPP_CALC_DIFF_S
339    o added modified Leith scheme with viscosity proportional to grad(Hdiv)
340      as well as grad(vort3).  Made it compatible with both approximate form
341      for the cubed sphere and full form of these gradients.  Added flag
342      useFullLeith to select between approximate and full form.  
343    o add "d0" in getcon.F to reduce differences between compilers/platforms
344      update output.txt of exp. fizhi-gridalt-hs
345    o change port_rand funtion to allow to set the seed.
346    o fix obscure MNC bug involving conversion between reals and integers
347      - it caused no problems with certain (eg. gcc, ifc) compilers but the
348        new version is now more standards-compliant
349    o adjoint-related modifications
350      * gad_dst3_adv_?: to be able to use advscheme=30 in adjoint
351      * gad_calc_rhs: fool adjoint, revert to advscheme=30 in reverse when using 33
352      * mom_vi_hdissip: to be able to use Leith scheme in adjoint
353    
354    checkpoint57e_post
355    o Adding eddy stress controls a la Ferreira et al.
356    checkpoint57e_pre (actually was tagged: eckpoint57e_pre)
357    
358    o fizhi pkg: fix AtoC and CtoA when called with same input & output array
359      update output.txt of exp. fizhi-gridalt-hs
360    o add more "Z" dimensions and associated coordinate vars to MNC
361    o pkg/exf: added twoDigitYear capability for option useExfYearlyFields
362    o parameter calendarDumps: when set, approximate months (30-31 days) and years
363      (360-372 days) for parameters chkPtFreq, pChkPtFreq, taveFreq, SEAICE_taveFreq,
364      KPP_taveFreq, and freq in pkg/diagnostics are converted to exact calendar
365      months and years.  Requires pkg/cal.
366    o diagnostics: add pickup functionality
367      - off by default for backwards compatibility
368      - current version only uses MDSIO -- MNC will be added
369    o allow to use pkg diagnostics for LAND pkg output & Shapiro Tendencies.
370    o pkg/shap_filt: fix for multi-tiles per face (CS-grid with EXCH2)
371    
372    checkpoint57d_post
373    o pkg/thsice used in the ocean: fix tile Pb related to sIceLoad forcing
374    o modify verification/ideal_2D_oce so that it tests the creation of mnc
375      output from the diagnostics package
376    o temporary fix in EXCH2_UV: add a 3rd call to fix the 24.tiles CS-grid set-up
377    o make genmake2 more portable by using ".$FS" instead of ".f" for more
378      of the test compilations (eg. IBM xlf on Mac OSX w/HFS filesys)
379    o add coordinate variables to the MNC output from the diagnostics package
380    o change MNC-flags default value: true when useMNC=TRUE
381    o add a "readgrid_mnc" flag to MNC and give model/src/ini_curvilinear_grid.F
382      the ability (off by default) to read the grid information using MNC
383    o lab_sea: use LSR_ERROR=1.E-12 for testing ; update output.txt
384    o diagnostics: fix a bug (sub-set of levels); keep full precision when averaging
385    o do snap-shot diagnostics at the middle of the time-interval (instead of
386      at the end).
387    o update exp. aim.5l_cs (use default LAND_OPTIONS.h file) and add
388      new test for AIM with thSIce + slab-ocean
389    o cpl_aim+ocn test: update output (optfile & default GMREDI_OPTIONS.h)
390    o move state variable diagnostics to the beginning of the time step ;
391      (note: still needs some work specially for snap-shot diagnostics)
392      duplicate & replace UVELVVEL diagnostics with UV_VEL_C & UV_VEL_Z
393    
394    checkpoint57c_post
395    o Change testing option (-ieee) to get closer agreement between g77 & ifort
396    o generate new output.txt files on faulks with g77 & the new -ieee option
397    checkpoint57c_pre
398    
399    o add "_d 0" in freeze ; change some "FLOAT" to "DFLOAT" and went back (TAF);
400      update output.txt of exp. global_ocean.90x40x15
401    o fix in ini_eos.F (one "_d 0" was missing): now g77 & ifc give much closer
402      results; update global_ocean_pressure & global_ocean.cs32x15 output.txt
403    o add saltFlux(+File) forcing capability with periodicExternalForcing
404    o allow to use pkg diagnostics for GM-Redi & ThSIce output
405    o diagnostics_fill: fill in up to sNx+1 or sNy+1 (if U,V or Z pt) for mnc.
406    o improvements for the MNC output from DIAGNOSTICS:
407      - correct handling of the unlimitied dimension
408      - all dims now have associated coordinate variables
409      - variables located at U, V, and Corner ("Z") points are now written
410        with the correct horzontal dimensions (eg. 'Xp1', 'Yp1') so that
411        *all* data points are output
412    o added seaice_summary.F and removed obsolete ALLOW_SEAICE's from pkg/seaice
413    o added pkg/seaice/seaice_monitor.F
414    o mdsio_readfield.F can now read files visible only to master MPI process.
415    o pkg/seaice: some test code for ice-modified ocean stress
416    o exf_getffields interpolation defaults to bilinear for all scalar forcing
417      fields (remains bicubic for wind velocity and stress).  This avoids, e.g.,
418      spurious negative numbers for precipitation and humidity.  Will cause
419      some small numerical differences for integrations using pkg/exf/exf_interp.F.
420    o pkg/ctrl/
421      * Add ctrlvec diagnostics in pack/unpack for nondimensional I/O
422        May be enabled via doPackDiag
423      *  introduce z-scaling of
424         + gradient (doZscalePack) and
425         + control (doZscaleUnpack)
426    o pkg/mdsio/
427      * enable useSingleCpuIO for state estimation (ctrl_pack/unpack) mdsio_gl.F
428      * N.B.: leave tiled I/O for tapelev (i.e. mds...vector)
429    
430    checkpoint57b_post
431    o simplify options in diagnostics_fill arguments (remove weird combinations)
432    o fix MNC coordinate variables so that they now contain per-face index
433      values (instead of xC,xG,yC,yG values) when run with EXCH2 since, in
434      general, EXCH2 grids are only aligned to a "local" coordinate system
435    o test diagnostics pkg in dic_example (no output) and ideal_2D_oce (with ouput)
436    o Implement instantaneous output within pkg diagnostics:
437      setting a negative frequency in data.diagnostics produces
438     "snap-shot" output (as opposed to time-average if freq > 0)
439    o move out off EQUIVALENCE all diagnostics that fizhi does not use ;
440      NOTE: change ptracer diagnostics name: use 2 characters to work with
441            more than 9 tracers. Add also diagnostics of advect & diffus flux.
442    o more CF compliance: convert all MNC 'iter' variables to 'T' so that it
443      becomes the coordinate variable for the 'T' dimension
444    o add CF-style coordinate variables to MNC
445      - just a first cut:  numbers are meaningless on the cubesphere and
446        missing along the T axis but otherwise it works!
447    o add surface flux diagnostics: TAUX, TAUY, TFLUX, TRELAX, TICE, SFLUX, SRELAX
448    o pkg/thSIce: read initial state from 6 files ; allow monitor to use MNC.
449    o add diagnostics of advective & diffusive flux for T & S (pTracers coming soon)
450      this is based directly on what the model compute, so that the content of
451      each diagnostics might be affected by switching options (e.g., implicitDiffusion)
452    o small changes for diagnostics (gad_biharm_?.F, arguments of S/R impldiff.F)
453    o clean up build options files for SunOS, in particular
454      - remove -traditional from xmakedepend
455      - change -xarch=v9 to -xarch=native for f77
456      - restore use of make (not gmake)
457      - add CC=gcc if using g77
458    o changes per discussion of AM, JMC, & EH3 today:
459      - move redundant "grid" variables out of "state" -- in preparation of
460        creating proper CF-style coordinate variables and in recognition
461        that any/all grid variables can be easily copied (eg. w/NCO) from
462        the grid files into any of the other NetCDF files
463      - *always* output grid variables with MDSIO (this will eventually be
464        changed)
465      - output MNC grid file if useMNC is true
466    o every instance of _END_MASTER() has been found and replaced with
467      _END_MASTER( myThid ) in order to satisfy certain picky Sun
468      preprocessors
469    o re-arrange diagnostics pkg initialisation:
470     - allow each package to extend the available diagnostics list
471     - add some checking and fix small problems (multi-threaded, ...)
472     - new S/R diagnostics_fill (replace fill_diagnostics):
473       look through the short list of active diag. (instead of the long list)
474       create function DIAGNOSTICS_IS_ON to tell if a diagnostics is active
475    
476    checkpoint57a_post
477    o this set of changes restores TAMC compatibility
478      tested for global_ocean.90x40x15 adjoint on trough
479      (what a pain)
480    
481    checkpoint57a_pre
482    o some modifs in tools/build_options for sunos
483    o call ctrl_pack for ctrl at end for optimcycle=0
484    
485    checkpoint57
486    o add horizontal bi-harmonic viscosity for vertical velocity
487      - new parameter viscA4W (defaults to viscA4)
488      - affects only non-hydrostatic code
489      - to be done: no-slip lateral boundary conditions
490    o switch back to "sflux = sflux - runoff" in exf_getforcing.F
491    o implement Implicit Vertical advection for pTracers
492    o depth convergence accelerator: replace deltaTtracer by dTtracerLev(k)
493      (implemented also for implicit vertical diffusion & advection)
494    o OBCS: extend application of tracer open boundary conditions
495      to a strip beyond the boundary of width Olx/Oly
496    o add call monitor to TAF set of required calls (flow directives)
497      and include in natl_box_adjoint
498    o untangle a few ifdefs related to cost, ctrl, autodiff
499      untangel a few ALLOW_ECCO_OPTIMIZATION
500    o Apply Cooper & Haines representative estimates also at sub-surface (k=Nr)
501      (theta2, salt2 in ecco_cost_weights)
502    
503    checkpoint56c_post
504    o OBCS as control variables
505      - update ctrl_ad_diff.list, obcs_ad_diff.list
506      - remove balance of obcs controls from default
507      - fix index bug nobcs in ctrl_init
508      - fix dummy fields filen in ctrl_pack
509      - add dummy weights for obcs
510    o lsopt: comment out fort.94 output
511    o optim:
512      - remove unnecessary header files
513      - adjusted namelists
514      - add xerbla.F to Makefile
515    o exf:
516      - multiple modifications of exf_check_range
517      - unit change in exf_init_runoff from [m/year] to [m/s]
518    o mdsio:
519      - i/o-vector change debugLevel from debLevA to debLevB
520    
521    checkpoint56b_post
522    o collect all ptracers output in an new routine (PTRACERS_OUTPUT) that
523      is called from DO_THE_MODEL_IO
524      - rename PTRACERS_STATV_WRITE to PTRACERS_WRITE_TIMEAVE
525      - introduce new parameter PTRACERS_dumpFreq (defaults to dumpFreq)
526      - clean up PTRACERS_WRITE_TIMEAVE a little
527    o add another verification experiment that tests both the cfc-pkg and
528      the gchem-pkg with GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING undefined, that is with
529      reactive tendencies treated inline with regular timestepping
530    o testreport previously did a lousy job of comparing small numbers, so
531      we (Ed and Martin) changed the  way the cut-off of 1.e-12 is
532      implemented in the little c-progam tmp_cmpnum.c which is embedded in
533      testreport.
534    o ptracers_monitor: bug fix for MPI
535    
536    checkpoint56a_post
537    o GCHEM: finish reorganizating the package
538      - forward_step calls GCHEM_CALC_TENDENDY, which computes gchemTendency
539        (introduces another 3D-array for each passive tracer, but only if
540        GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING is undefined. For GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING
541        gchemTendency is not needed because the timestep is done separately)
542      - gchemTendency is added to gPtr in GCHEM_ADD_TENDENCY
543      - GCHEM is now---more or less cleanly---separate from PTRACERS
544      - to bo done: handling of surfaceForcingPtr that is needed for KPP not
545        so clear to me how that should be done in a general way.
546    o CFC: improve formatting of output in CFC_ATMOS
547    o PTRACERS:
548      - rename GCHEM_MONITOR to PTRACERS_MONITOR and call it from MONITOR, so
549        that ALL experiments with ptracers enable can be checked. This makes
550        GCHEM_MONITOR obsolete.
551      - include a runtime parameter PTRACERS_monitorFreq that defaults to
552        monitorFreq
553      - set default PTRACERS_write_mdsio to false if PTRACERS_write_mnc is true
554    o add PTRACERS (PTR0[1-5]) to testreport output
555    o exf_check_range:
556      * default changed to .TRUE.
557      * will check values for niter0 if debLevA, every timestep if debLevB
558      * STOP in exf_check_range if 'out of range'
559      * range chosen generous to allow for potential extema
560      TBD: a version with stricter range
561           permitted range would be runtime parameters
562  o GMredi:  o GMredi:
563    - fix ldd97 slope limit ; extend valid domain of Psi-Bolus ;    - fix ldd97 slope limit ; extend valid domain of Psi-Bolus ;
564    - change S/R GRAD_SIGMA to be valid in the overlap on CS-grid.    - change S/R GRAD_SIGMA to be valid in the overlap on CS-grid.

573        be replaced by a 3D array that is computed before thermodynamics; for
574        this, the tracer ID iTracer had to be included into the parameter list
