5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o gmredi: fix bugs in slope tapering ldd97 (depthZ had the wrong sign)
8         and update lab_sea output.txt file.
9    
10    checkpoint57y_post
11    First step for a NLFS adjoint
12    o initially suppress rStar (new flag DISABLE_RSTAR_CODE)
13    o new init. routines for calc_r_star, calc_surf_dr
14    o still need to deal with ini_masks_etc
15    o testreport seemed happy
16    checkpoint57y_pre
17    
18    o obcs: always reset wVel & eta (to zero or prescribe it) at the OBs.
19    o add new package rbcs (for relaxing ptracers at boundaries/depth/surface etc)
20    o add new offset feature to offline pkg (plus minor cleanup)
21    o cfc fixes for final year of integration
22    o clean up GCHEM_OPTIONS.h/DIC_OPTIONS.h (all options should
23      be in GCHEM_OPTIONS).
24    
25    checkpoint57x_post
26    o fix testreport Pb in multiple test experiment.
27    o cleanup our namelist syntax in verification:
28      - make it more F95 standards compliant (some work still needed)
29      - allows the vast majority of our tests to work with gfortran
30    o Non-Hydrostatic:
31     - put all NH variables (formerly in DYNVARS.h & GW.h) in NH_VARS.h
32     - fix exchange calls for CS-grid using the new EXCH_S3D_RL.
33    o Allow to apply AB on T,S rather than on AB(gT,gS):
34     - implemented within #ifdef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3
35     - use the same arrays (gtNm,gsNm) to hold tracer field at previous
36       time-steps (if AB(T,S)) and tendencies (if AB(gT,gS)).
37     - need a "clever" read_pickup to restart from the other AB formulation
38    o move local commom bloc /GlobalLo/ (used for singleCpuIO) in EESUPPORT.h
39    o remove some unused variables (reduces number of compiler warnings)
40    o adjoint
41      * Disable useVariableViscosity for adjoint for time being
42        (there are a number of extensive recomputations)
43      * Initialize certain variables needed for adjoint
44    
45    checkpoint57w_post
46    o pkg/mdsio: use MAX_LEN_FNAM (instead of hard coded 80) for file-names
47                 fix the singleCpuIO RS version of MDSWRITEFIELD
48       and add a WARNING if using globalFiles=T with multi-processors.
49    o write grid-file(s) in only one format (MDS or MNC): default=MNC (if
50      using MNC); can force MDS output by setting writegrid_mnc=F in data.mnc
51    o tracer advection scheme:
52      add DST-2 (=Lax-Wendroff) & 1rst order upwind schemes (the way to get
53       those 2 schemes before, changing GAD_FLUX_LIMITER.h + to recompile,
54       was not very convenient).
55      add implicit version for DST-3 & DST3_Flux_Limit vertical advection;  
56       (further tests needed for the implicit DST & Flux-Limiter schemes).
57    o PTRACERS: added namelist parameter PTRACERS_ref in analogy to tRef
58      and sRef for convenience, handy, when you want to initialize
59      ptracers in a large domain with a constant non-zero value. Also,
60      untangle ptracers_init.F a little.
61    
62    checkpoint57v_post
63    o change dome exp. to use variable viscosity in side-drag terms.
64    o remove all the files from the cfc_offline test since they are now
65      incorporated into tutorial_cfc_offline which has been producing
66      identical results for a few days of testing
67    o add new parameter: sideDragFactor to enable half-slip-side BC
68      and change side-drag S/R to use viscosity from mom_calc_visc
69      (can switch back by setting sideDragFactor=0.); affects results at
70      truncation level; regenerate output for exp.: global_ocean.cs32x10(x3),
71       global_ocean_ebm, global_ocean_pressure, matrix_example & MLAdjust(x5).
72    o vorticity & strain are now computed without masking, to account for
73      no-slip-side BC in variable viscosity calculation ; mask is applied
74      anyway later on, before computing advection/coriolis terms.
75    o modify exp4 to test new obcs support for reading from external files
76      and for passive tracers
77    o fix behavior of ptracers_monitor when monitor output is written to a
78      netcdf-file; still not independent of monitor.F (writes in the same
79      file).
80    o change default value of tRef (put a uniform, meaningful value for ocean
81      & atmos) and initialize sRef (was missing, as Martin mentioned).
82    o Redefine viscC?Leith*.  Change the coefficients of Leith viscosity
83      to be proportional to enstrophy dissipation length.  Thus,
84       viscC?leith?_new=pi*(viscC?leith?_old)^(1/3)
85      This is now consistent with Smagorinsky and with the manual.
86    
87    checkpoint57u_post
88    o OBCS and PTRACERS: add open boundary support for passive tracers
89      - either use homogenous (pseudo) v.Neumann conditions or prescribe
90        OB-values from file; this is not different from the way theta and salinity
91        are treated
92      - however, Orlanski-radiation conditions are not supported, and the model
93        will stop if you use pTracers and Orlanski at the same time.
94      - beefed up the rountine obcs_external_fields_load: now only those open
95        boundary values are overwritten with values from files for which there
96        are really files, otherwise the OB-fields remain untouched. This makes
97        it possible to use different OBs at different ends of the domain (as
98        with EXF)
99    o reduce number of exch calls in shap_filt (s2).
100    o CS-grid: fix divergence contribution to Leith viscosity. Affects (@
101      truncation level) 4/5 MLAdjust test results (11&12 digits match).
102    
103    checkpoint57t_post
104    o test biharmonic viscosity + no-slip with exp: global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
105    o finish adding brackets (coriolis S/R, vecinv) in multi-terms sum to get
106      same truncation, independent of the face number: affects affects several
107      test. exp.: Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
108    o fix bug in mom_v_sidedrag (biharmonic viscosity was counted 2 times);
109      note that biharmonic viscosity + no-slip was not tested in any experiment.
110    o fix bug in non-linear free-surf side-drag ; generate new output for
111      global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & global_ocean_pressure.
112    o make mnc honor the writeBinaryPrec flag for most kinds of output
113    o eesupp: split EEPARAMS into EESIZE/EEPARAMS and add a vector global sum
114    o minor change in averaging W (mom_vi_?_vertshear.F) that affects truncation
115      error; update output from global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
116    o add brackets in multi-terms sum to get same truncation, independent of
117      the face number (manage to get exactly same value of gU,gV at the cs-edge)
118      affects several test. exp. Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice).
119    o Clean, new version of mom_calc_visc.  Adds a new feature, viscAhRemax
120      and viscA4Remax, which allow one to limit the minimum viscosity by specifying
121      a maximum grid-scale Reynolds number.  Also, changes all length calculations
122      in the case of grid anisotropy to geometric mean of dx**2 and dy**2.
123      Suggested values of viscosity parameters found in mom_calc_visc.
124      Many new viscosity diagnostics available.
125    
126    checkpoint57s_post
127    o Add clearing-house for viscosity calculations, mom_calc_visc and
128      correct numerous bugs in LeithD and Smagorinsky discretizations.  
129      mom_calc_visc now allows for Smagorinsky, Leith and LeithD to be
130      used simultaneously, and to be used in mom_vecinv and mom_fluxform.
131      Mom_vecinv can be used with standard viscous calculation (mom_vi_hdissip.F)
132      and with Strain-Tension viscous term calculation (mom_hdissip.F).  
133      The Strain-Tension form is now called with useStrainTensonVisc=.true.
134      ViscAhStrain and viscAhTension are now retired.
135    o diagnostics "VISCAHD" & "VISCA4D" replace "VISCAH" & "VISCA4".
136    o In response to JMC's bug report, genmake2 now ignores any soft-links
137      that it finds in the *current* directory when searching for files.
138      Soft-links found in any other source directories will still work as
139      they did before.
140    o add HAVE_SETRLSTK define and useSETRLSTK flag (eedata) which calls
141      a C routine to unlimit the stack size
142    o mnc-ify pkg/aim snapshot vars
143    o mnc-ify pkg/land as requested by Daniel
144    o various changes to mnc including:
145      - all files use the new "BASENAME[[.ITER].{t|f}NUM].nc" format
146      - output can now be grouped so that all files within a group
147          change the ITER portion of their names in lock-step together
148      - can now read ("global") PER-FACE (in addition to PER-TILE) files
149          and works with both EXCH1 and EXCH2 (but needs more testing)
150      - writing works for all verification test cases w/ g77 on Linux
151    
152    checkpoint57r_post
153    o make MNC variable initialization happen earlier
154    o add diagnostics for (almost) each term of the momentum Eq.
155    o remove SST,SSS,UVEL_k2,VVEL_k2 diagnostics.
156    o move pkg timeave out of pkg-groups "oceanic" & "atmospheric" (pkg/pkg_groups)
157    o remove MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT option ;
158      add "dumpInitAndLast" to replace "nodumps" (and MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT).
159    o move some basic S/R (used elsewhere in the code) from pkg/mdsio to eesupp/src
160      allows to compile without pkg/mdsio (& test successfully hs94.1x64x5)
161    o add MNC output for adjoint of EXF (adexf), SEAICE (adseaice)
162    o add time-dependent SST, SSS control
163    o cost terms in ecco/ modularized (new cost_generic.F)
164    o cost_averages routines are modularized (new cost_averagesgeneric.F)
165    o new infrastructure for seaice model vs. obs misfits in seaice/
166      * driver from the_main_loop.F is seaice_cost_driver.F
167      * first term is AREA vs. SMR observation misfit (ALLOW_SEAICE_COST_SMR_AREA)
168      * gradient check in Exp. 6a of natl_box_adjoint/
169    o natl_box_adjoint input_seaice for Lab. Sea now available online via wget
170      (see README file)
171    
172    checkpoint57q_post
173    o fix initialisation Pb in calc_gw (get NANs in exp5 with g77)
174    o fix annoying months-old bug in mnc/mdsio output for seaice pkg
175      - bug was reported by Jean-Michel and Ian Fenty
176    o fix initialization Pb in AIM-Ocean coupled model (aim_sice2aim.F)
177      update exp. cpl_aim+ocn output.
178    o Implement 4-level checkpointing: AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
179      Needed for high-res. runs with large global files
180      to be able to limit tapelev size
181    o Changed some tests for adjoint:
182      * carbon/ now tests AUTODIFF_2_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
183      * natl_box_adjoint/code_bulk/ tests AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
184      * global_ocean.90x40x15/ back to default 3-level checkpointing
185    o Modifications to enable scripted COMMON to MODULE conversion
186      * verification/OpenAD/code/ has necessary scripts and description;
187      * converts, compiles and runs successfully;
188    
189    checkpoint57p_post
190    o reading of delXfile & delYfile moved from ini_parms.F to ini_grid.F
191    o move ${PKG}_MNC_INIT from ${PKG}_READ_PARAMS to ${PKG}_INIT_FIXED
192      (already the case for some pkgs, including recent MNC_init, e.g. thsice)
193    o call CALC_GW from DYNAMICS (instead of from FORWARD_STEP)
194    o Dissipation & phiHyd gradient are always added to gU,gV in timestep.F
195      (was already the case for dissipation with mom_vecinv,
196       and also the case for grad.PhiHyd when staggered-timeStep)
197      This will allow to put dissipation out-off the AB time-stepping.
198     Unfortunately, affects truncation error. Update output of exp. that "fails"
199      (cg2d matching number) and leave the others for later: front_relax(10),
200      global_ocean_pressure(10),ideal_2D_oce(10),internal_wave(9),lab_sea(12),
201      matrix_example(7!),natl_box(12),plume_on_slope(11),vermix(12x3,11x2).
202    
203    checkpoint57o_post
204    o fix MNC/MDSIO flags in PTRACERS so that (1) it works, and
205      (2) its ready to be documented during the 20050801 DocFest
206    o MNC-ify the gmredi package -- tested and works w/ and w/o mnc
207      for ideal_2D_oce and lab_sea on linux_ia32_g77
208    o set to #undef CTRL_SET_OLD_MAXCVARS_30
209      in global1x1_tot/code_seaice_adj to access indices 32, 33
210      (worth another tag)
211    
212    checkpoint57n_post
213    o adding precip control xx_precip 32
214    o adding swflux control xx_swflux 33
215    o Replacing 10 forcing penalty cost routines by 1 generic.
216    o Implementing partitioning in time-mean and variable adjustment
217      for atmos. state.
218    o Time-mean constant error is now read in data.ecco (instead of hard-coded)
219    o in natl_box_adjoint:
220      * updated exp 1 to 10
221        (but does not have time-mean vs. variable split results yet)
222    o updated global1x1/*_seaice_adj/
223      to incorporate latest changes
224    o enable useSingleCpuIO for mdsio vector routines
225      (applies in particular to tapelev I/O)
226    o removed inefficient K-loop in all active_file*control*.F
227    
228    checkpoint57m_post
229    o re-arrange exp. adjustment.cs-32x32x1 (adjust_nlfs.cs-32x32x1 merge into)
230      and advect_cs (use EXCH-2 and standard cs-32 grid files).
231    o pkg/exch2: filling of face-corner halo regions is optional
232      (ifdef W2_FILL_NULL_REGIONS) and is turned off by default.
233    
234    checkpoint57l_post
235     tag before updating tutorials (pre-release-2)
236    o add cos & sin of grid-direction orientation angle (curvilinear grid only,
237       for output and interpolation of input fields onto model grid)
238    o fix radius in mom_v_metric_cylinder.F (wrong by dy/2).
239       Affects results of exp. rotating_tank ; update output.txt.
240    o pkg/diagnostics: 2 new S/R to fill a diagnostics using a scaling factor
241          and taking the square quantity and/or using a fraction-weight field.
242    o fix aim_diagnostics_init.F mate numbers.
243    o add mnc output capability to diagnostics/diagstat and update
244      our cvsignore files for the ACSII output generated
245    
246    checkpoint57k_post
247    o lab_sea now uses diagnostics package and provides a suite of
248      new EXF diagnostics output.
249    
250    checkpoint57j_post
251    o exf
252      * bug fix in exf_bulkformulae for psimh (spotted by Eliyahu Biton):
253        Bracket missing in eqn. for psimh (eqn. 7 of Large & Pond, 1982);
254        terms -2*ATAN(x) + pi/2 were added to both stable and unstable case.
255      * extended diagnostics output
256        - now includes all EXF variables
257        - hs, hl moved to common block
258        - separate S/R for diagnostics, called after ctrl vector is added
259        - name changed for EXFsw -> EXFswnet, EXFlw -> EXFlwnet
260        - EXFqnet contains true Qnet (i.e. includes qsw)
261      * updated verif. lab_sea, global_with_exf
262      * Rearranging hflux (exf_mapfields -> exf_getforcing)
263        to ensure that diagnostics sees a true EXFqnet
264    o add matlab scripts for CS-grid vectors (in utils/cs_grid)
265    o diagnostics pkg: change pointers so that 1 diagnostic can be used
266      several times with different frequencies.
267    o mnc-ify the thsice package as requested by Daniel Enderton
268      - the monitor--MNC output needs work
269      - many attributes need to be added (most are currently blank)
270    o mnc-ify theaim_v23 package as requested by Daniel Enderton
271      - many attributes need to be added (most are currently blank)
272    o remove "groundAtK1" & "rkFac" (replaced by usingPCoords & -rkSign)
273    o add Sadourny like discretization to the 4th.O vorticity advection scheme
274    o fix bug in rStar code (calc_r_star.F) when used with topo/bathy.
275      update output.txt from: aim.5l_cs (& .thSI), cpl_aim+ocn,
276         fizhi-gridalt-hs and global_ocean.cs32x15 (& .thsice).
277    o fix few little things to avoid floating error with -ftrapuv (ifort v9)
278     (ini_spherical_polar_grid.F, calc_r_star.F, monitor/mon_surfcor.F)
279    
280    checkpoint57i_post
281    o Diagnostics package was changed: diagnostic allocation is now deactivated
282      by setting an empty file name in the namelist (used to be by setting 0 frequency)
283    o momentum advection (VI form) options: activate 4th.O vorticity Coriolis ;
284      add 1rst Order upwind vertical Shear.
285    o add a quick fix for A/B checkpointing in OFFLINE mode
286    o add IGNORE_TIME define and -ignore_time option to genmake2 as an
287      end-run around the C/Fortran linking horror in eesup/src/timers.F
288    o added pkg/runclock: allows user to terminate run based on wall clock
289    o added non-hydrostatic scaling parameter: nh_am2
290    o pkg/my82: futile attempt to make results compiler-independent by adding
291      some "_d 0", etc. no effect.
292    o for mnc output, fill the 'T' coordinate var with myTime and create a
293      separate 'iter' variable for iteration count
294    o pkg/diagnostics:
295      add new capability: output of Global/Regional & per-level statistics ;
296      tested against monitor output (including land & thSIce) on various exp.
297    o make seaice-pkg I/O type flags (MNC/MDS) more standard.
298    
299    checkpoint57h_done
300      tag after changing user customized files (DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h,
301      data.diagnostics, data.gchem, data.ptracers) is done.
302    
303    o pkg/diagnostics: prepare for Global/Regional statistics.
304      add 2nd namelist in data.diagnostics and update DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h
305    o remove "baseTime" (no used) from arg. list of DIFF_BASE_MULTIPLE
306      and rename it: DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE
307    
308    checkpoint57h_post
309    o move tIter0 from data.gchem to PTRACERS_Iter0 in data.ptracers
310    o pkg/diagnostics: change output frequency, now in seconds (instead
311      of Nb of iterations). This requires to change data.diagnostics.
312    checkpoint57h_pre
313    
314    o in mnc, let the user create the output dir if both mnc_outdir_date
315      and mnc_outdir_num are false
316    o add fflags() to pkg/diagnostics which allows one to specify, on a
317      per-file basis, the file precision [default behavior is unchanged]
318    o added diagnostics to pkg/kpp, including computation of mixed layer
319      depth based on a temperature/density criterion
320    o updated verification/natl_box to test the new pkg/kpp diagnostics
321    o bugs fixed (with useAbsVorticity=T & with useJamartMomAdv=T)
322    o test AB-3 code with 4th.Order advection scheme (advect_xy/input.ab3_c4)
323    o fix mnc flags in pkg/seaice so that they are "owned" by seaice,
324      not mnc -- this mistake was found by JMC and is now corrected
325    
326    checkpoint57g_post
327    o add Adams-Bashforth 3rd Order time stepping:
328      - default remains AB-2 (#undef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3)
329      - not yet implemented with NH, CD_Scheme, pTracers, MNC_pickup ...
330    checkpoint57g_pre
331    
332    o make lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax spatially varying
333      (default remains spatially uniform constant based on tau)
334    o added new control variables
335      * init. uVel, vVel, etanN
336      * lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax
337    o separate masks used for ctrl_pack/unpack 'from write_grid' output
338      (suggested by G. Forget)
339    
340    checkpoint57f_post
341    o add parameter "baseTime" = model base time = time at iteration zero
342      new function DIFF_BASE_MULTIPLE (replace DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE) to
343      account for baseTime shift
344    o move Coriolis arrays from PARAMS.h to GRID.h
345    checkpoint57f_pre
346    
347    o mnc-ifying the seaice package
348    o introduced an alternative length scale calculation for use in the limiting
349      maximum viscosity (off by default, see mom_vi_hdissip.F for details)
350    o S/R ptracers_calc_diff: argument list bug for CALL KPP_CALC_DIFF_S
351    o added modified Leith scheme with viscosity proportional to grad(Hdiv)
352      as well as grad(vort3).  Made it compatible with both approximate form
353      for the cubed sphere and full form of these gradients.  Added flag
354      useFullLeith to select between approximate and full form.  
355    o add "d0" in getcon.F to reduce differences between compilers/platforms
356      update output.txt of exp. fizhi-gridalt-hs
357    o change port_rand funtion to allow to set the seed.
358    o fix obscure MNC bug involving conversion between reals and integers
359      - it caused no problems with certain (eg. gcc, ifc) compilers but the
360        new version is now more standards-compliant
361    o adjoint-related modifications
362      * gad_dst3_adv_?: to be able to use advscheme=30 in adjoint
363      * gad_calc_rhs: fool adjoint, revert to advscheme=30 in reverse when using 33
364      * mom_vi_hdissip: to be able to use Leith scheme in adjoint
365    
366    checkpoint57e_post
367    o Adding eddy stress controls a la Ferreira et al.
368    checkpoint57e_pre (actually was tagged: eckpoint57e_pre)
369    
370    o fizhi pkg: fix AtoC and CtoA when called with same input & output array
371      update output.txt of exp. fizhi-gridalt-hs
372    o add more "Z" dimensions and associated coordinate vars to MNC
373    o pkg/exf: added twoDigitYear capability for option useExfYearlyFields
374    o parameter calendarDumps: when set, approximate months (30-31 days) and years
375      (360-372 days) for parameters chkPtFreq, pChkPtFreq, taveFreq, SEAICE_taveFreq,
376      KPP_taveFreq, and freq in pkg/diagnostics are converted to exact calendar
377      months and years.  Requires pkg/cal.
378    o diagnostics: add pickup functionality
379      - off by default for backwards compatibility
380      - current version only uses MDSIO -- MNC will be added
381    o allow to use pkg diagnostics for LAND pkg output & Shapiro Tendencies.
382    o pkg/shap_filt: fix for multi-tiles per face (CS-grid with EXCH2)
383    
384    checkpoint57d_post
385    o pkg/thsice used in the ocean: fix tile Pb related to sIceLoad forcing
386    o modify verification/ideal_2D_oce so that it tests the creation of mnc
387      output from the diagnostics package
388    o temporary fix in EXCH2_UV: add a 3rd call to fix the 24.tiles CS-grid set-up
389    o make genmake2 more portable by using ".$FS" instead of ".f" for more
390      of the test compilations (eg. IBM xlf on Mac OSX w/HFS filesys)
391    o add coordinate variables to the MNC output from the diagnostics package
392    o change MNC-flags default value: true when useMNC=TRUE
393    o add a "readgrid_mnc" flag to MNC and give model/src/ini_curvilinear_grid.F
394      the ability (off by default) to read the grid information using MNC
395    o lab_sea: use LSR_ERROR=1.E-12 for testing ; update output.txt
396    o diagnostics: fix a bug (sub-set of levels); keep full precision when averaging
397    o do snap-shot diagnostics at the middle of the time-interval (instead of
398      at the end).
399    o update exp. aim.5l_cs (use default LAND_OPTIONS.h file) and add
400      new test for AIM with thSIce + slab-ocean
401    o cpl_aim+ocn test: update output (optfile & default GMREDI_OPTIONS.h)
402    o move state variable diagnostics to the beginning of the time step ;
403      (note: still needs some work specially for snap-shot diagnostics)
404      duplicate & replace UVELVVEL diagnostics with UV_VEL_C & UV_VEL_Z
405    
406    checkpoint57c_post
407    o Change testing option (-ieee) to get closer agreement between g77 & ifort
408    o generate new output.txt files on faulks with g77 & the new -ieee option
409    checkpoint57c_pre
410    
411    o add "_d 0" in freeze ; change some "FLOAT" to "DFLOAT" and went back (TAF);
412      update output.txt of exp. global_ocean.90x40x15
413    o fix in ini_eos.F (one "_d 0" was missing): now g77 & ifc give much closer
414      results; update global_ocean_pressure & global_ocean.cs32x15 output.txt
415    o add saltFlux(+File) forcing capability with periodicExternalForcing
416    o allow to use pkg diagnostics for GM-Redi & ThSIce output
417    o diagnostics_fill: fill in up to sNx+1 or sNy+1 (if U,V or Z pt) for mnc.
418    o improvements for the MNC output from DIAGNOSTICS:
419      - correct handling of the unlimitied dimension
420      - all dims now have associated coordinate variables
421      - variables located at U, V, and Corner ("Z") points are now written
422        with the correct horzontal dimensions (eg. 'Xp1', 'Yp1') so that
423        *all* data points are output
424    o added seaice_summary.F and removed obsolete ALLOW_SEAICE's from pkg/seaice
425    o added pkg/seaice/seaice_monitor.F
426    o mdsio_readfield.F can now read files visible only to master MPI process.
427    o pkg/seaice: some test code for ice-modified ocean stress
428    o exf_getffields interpolation defaults to bilinear for all scalar forcing
429      fields (remains bicubic for wind velocity and stress).  This avoids, e.g.,
430      spurious negative numbers for precipitation and humidity.  Will cause
431      some small numerical differences for integrations using pkg/exf/exf_interp.F.
432    o pkg/ctrl/
433      * Add ctrlvec diagnostics in pack/unpack for nondimensional I/O
434        May be enabled via doPackDiag
435      *  introduce z-scaling of
436         + gradient (doZscalePack) and
437         + control (doZscaleUnpack)
438    o pkg/mdsio/
439      * enable useSingleCpuIO for state estimation (ctrl_pack/unpack) mdsio_gl.F
440      * N.B.: leave tiled I/O for tapelev (i.e. mds...vector)
441    
442    checkpoint57b_post
443    o simplify options in diagnostics_fill arguments (remove weird combinations)
444    o fix MNC coordinate variables so that they now contain per-face index
445      values (instead of xC,xG,yC,yG values) when run with EXCH2 since, in
446      general, EXCH2 grids are only aligned to a "local" coordinate system
447    o test diagnostics pkg in dic_example (no output) and ideal_2D_oce (with ouput)
448    o Implement instantaneous output within pkg diagnostics:
449      setting a negative frequency in data.diagnostics produces
450     "snap-shot" output (as opposed to time-average if freq > 0)
451    o move out off EQUIVALENCE all diagnostics that fizhi does not use ;
452      NOTE: change ptracer diagnostics name: use 2 characters to work with
453            more than 9 tracers. Add also diagnostics of advect & diffus flux.
454    o more CF compliance: convert all MNC 'iter' variables to 'T' so that it
455      becomes the coordinate variable for the 'T' dimension
456    o add CF-style coordinate variables to MNC
457      - just a first cut:  numbers are meaningless on the cubesphere and
458        missing along the T axis but otherwise it works!
459    o add surface flux diagnostics: TAUX, TAUY, TFLUX, TRELAX, TICE, SFLUX, SRELAX
460    o pkg/thSIce: read initial state from 6 files ; allow monitor to use MNC.
461    o add diagnostics of advective & diffusive flux for T & S (pTracers coming soon)
462      this is based directly on what the model compute, so that the content of
463      each diagnostics might be affected by switching options (e.g., implicitDiffusion)
464    o small changes for diagnostics (gad_biharm_?.F, arguments of S/R impldiff.F)
465    o clean up build options files for SunOS, in particular
466      - remove -traditional from xmakedepend
467      - change -xarch=v9 to -xarch=native for f77
468      - restore use of make (not gmake)
469      - add CC=gcc if using g77
470    o changes per discussion of AM, JMC, & EH3 today:
471      - move redundant "grid" variables out of "state" -- in preparation of
472        creating proper CF-style coordinate variables and in recognition
473        that any/all grid variables can be easily copied (eg. w/NCO) from
474        the grid files into any of the other NetCDF files
475      - *always* output grid variables with MDSIO (this will eventually be
476        changed)
477      - output MNC grid file if useMNC is true
478    o every instance of _END_MASTER() has been found and replaced with
479      _END_MASTER( myThid ) in order to satisfy certain picky Sun
480      preprocessors
481    o re-arrange diagnostics pkg initialisation:
482     - allow each package to extend the available diagnostics list
483     - add some checking and fix small problems (multi-threaded, ...)
484     - new S/R diagnostics_fill (replace fill_diagnostics):
485       look through the short list of active diag. (instead of the long list)
486       create function DIAGNOSTICS_IS_ON to tell if a diagnostics is active
487    
488    checkpoint57a_post
489    o this set of changes restores TAMC compatibility
490      tested for global_ocean.90x40x15 adjoint on trough
491      (what a pain)
492    
493    checkpoint57a_pre
494    o some modifs in tools/build_options for sunos
495    o call ctrl_pack for ctrl at end for optimcycle=0
496    
497    checkpoint57
498    o add horizontal bi-harmonic viscosity for vertical velocity
499      - new parameter viscA4W (defaults to viscA4)
500      - affects only non-hydrostatic code
501      - to be done: no-slip lateral boundary conditions
502    o switch back to "sflux = sflux - runoff" in exf_getforcing.F
503    o implement Implicit Vertical advection for pTracers
504    o depth convergence accelerator: replace deltaTtracer by dTtracerLev(k)
505      (implemented also for implicit vertical diffusion & advection)
506    o OBCS: extend application of tracer open boundary conditions
507      to a strip beyond the boundary of width Olx/Oly
508    o add call monitor to TAF set of required calls (flow directives)
509      and include in natl_box_adjoint
510    o untangle a few ifdefs related to cost, ctrl, autodiff
511      untangel a few ALLOW_ECCO_OPTIMIZATION
512    o Apply Cooper & Haines representative estimates also at sub-surface (k=Nr)
513      (theta2, salt2 in ecco_cost_weights)
514    
515    checkpoint56c_post
516    o OBCS as control variables
517      - update ctrl_ad_diff.list, obcs_ad_diff.list
518      - remove balance of obcs controls from default
519      - fix index bug nobcs in ctrl_init
520      - fix dummy fields filen in ctrl_pack
521      - add dummy weights for obcs
522    o lsopt: comment out fort.94 output
523    o optim:
524      - remove unnecessary header files
525      - adjusted namelists
526      - add xerbla.F to Makefile
527    o exf:
528      - multiple modifications of exf_check_range
529      - unit change in exf_init_runoff from [m/year] to [m/s]
530    o mdsio:
531      - i/o-vector change debugLevel from debLevA to debLevB
532    
533    checkpoint56b_post
534    o collect all ptracers output in an new routine (PTRACERS_OUTPUT) that
535      is called from DO_THE_MODEL_IO
536      - rename PTRACERS_STATV_WRITE to PTRACERS_WRITE_TIMEAVE
537      - introduce new parameter PTRACERS_dumpFreq (defaults to dumpFreq)
538      - clean up PTRACERS_WRITE_TIMEAVE a little
539    o add another verification experiment that tests both the cfc-pkg and
540      the gchem-pkg with GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING undefined, that is with
541      reactive tendencies treated inline with regular timestepping
542    o testreport previously did a lousy job of comparing small numbers, so
543      we (Ed and Martin) changed the  way the cut-off of 1.e-12 is
544      implemented in the little c-progam tmp_cmpnum.c which is embedded in
545      testreport.
546    o ptracers_monitor: bug fix for MPI
547    
548    checkpoint56a_post
549    o GCHEM: finish reorganizating the package
550      - forward_step calls GCHEM_CALC_TENDENDY, which computes gchemTendency
551        (introduces another 3D-array for each passive tracer, but only if
552        GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING is undefined. For GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING
553        gchemTendency is not needed because the timestep is done separately)
554      - gchemTendency is added to gPtr in GCHEM_ADD_TENDENCY
555      - GCHEM is now---more or less cleanly---separate from PTRACERS
556      - to bo done: handling of surfaceForcingPtr that is needed for KPP not
557        so clear to me how that should be done in a general way.
558    o CFC: improve formatting of output in CFC_ATMOS
559    o PTRACERS:
560      - rename GCHEM_MONITOR to PTRACERS_MONITOR and call it from MONITOR, so
561        that ALL experiments with ptracers enable can be checked. This makes
562        GCHEM_MONITOR obsolete.
563      - include a runtime parameter PTRACERS_monitorFreq that defaults to
564        monitorFreq
565      - set default PTRACERS_write_mdsio to false if PTRACERS_write_mnc is true
566    o add PTRACERS (PTR0[1-5]) to testreport output
567    o exf_check_range:
568      * default changed to .TRUE.
569      * will check values for niter0 if debLevA, every timestep if debLevB
570      * STOP in exf_check_range if 'out of range'
571      * range chosen generous to allow for potential extema
572      TBD: a version with stricter range
573           permitted range would be runtime parameters
574  o GMredi:  o GMredi:
575    - fix ldd97 slope limit ; extend valid domain of Psi-Bolus ;    - fix ldd97 slope limit ; extend valid domain of Psi-Bolus ;
576    - 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.

583        this flag is now only visible within GCHEM-pkg routines.
584      - moved gchem_forcing_int temporarily into ptracers_forcing, this will
585        be replaced by a 3D array that is computed before thermodynamics; for
586        this, the tracer ID iTracer had to be included into the parameter list
587        of ptracers_forcing
588      - set up forward_step to call gchem_forcing, that will replace
