5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o make CG3D solver compatible with Free-surface at k > 1 (p-coordinate):
8      affects output (@ truncation level) of exp. plume_on_slope ; updated.
9    o fix the pickup behavior for obcs in combination with ptracers
10    o fix a bug in ptracers_external_fields_load
11    o no AB-2 at the first iteration for Gw (consistent with Gu,Gv,Gt,Gs ...)
12      affects results of NH experiments (but all our NH tests have Gw[it=1]==0 !!)
13    o transfered surface NH pressure to eta field (if exactConserv).
14    o gmredi: fix bugs in slope tapering ldd97 (depthZ had the wrong sign)
15         and update lab_sea output.txt file.
16    o completing 3-dim. relaxation code: additional term
17         1/tau*( theta(i,j,k) - thetaStar(i,j,k) )
18      in S/R EXTERNAL_FORCING_T (file external_forcing.F)
19      * At compile time, in "EXF_OPTIONS.h" set
20          #define  ALLOW_CLIMTEMP_RELAXATION
21          #define  ALLOW_CLIMSALT_RELAXATION
22      * At runtime in "data", under &PARM03 set (e.g., units in seconds)
23          tauThetaClimRelax3Dim = 15552000.0,
24          tauSaltClimRelax3Dim  = 15552000.0,
25      * 3 cases:
26          1) Use a constant-in-time 3-dim. field
27          2) Provide 12 3-dim. fields corresponding to Jan., ... , Dec.
28          3) Real-time relax. to time-evolving prescribed field
29    o Adding Laplacian-type smoothness constraint on
30      initial and boundary (forcing) controls (ic, bc)
31      * enable at compile-time via
32        ALLOW_SMOOTH_IC_COST_CONTRIBUTION, ALLOW_SMOOTH_BC_COST_CONTRIBUTION
33      * enable at run-time via mult_smooth_ic = 1, mult_smooth_bc = 1
34      * Absolute scale somewhat unclear so far
35      * no area weighting was included since no other cost term does so far
36    
37    checkpoint57y_post
38    First step for a NLFS adjoint
39    o initially suppress rStar (new flag DISABLE_RSTAR_CODE)
40    o new init. routines for calc_r_star, calc_surf_dr
41    o still need to deal with ini_masks_etc
42    o testreport seemed happy
43    checkpoint57y_pre
44    
45    o obcs: always reset wVel & eta (to zero or prescribe it) at the OBs.
46    o add new package rbcs (for relaxing ptracers at boundaries/depth/surface etc)
47    o add new offset feature to offline pkg (plus minor cleanup)
48    o cfc fixes for final year of integration
49    o clean up GCHEM_OPTIONS.h/DIC_OPTIONS.h (all options should
50      be in GCHEM_OPTIONS).
51    
52    checkpoint57x_post
53    o fix testreport Pb in multiple test experiment.
54    o cleanup our namelist syntax in verification:
55      - make it more F95 standards compliant (some work still needed)
56      - allows the vast majority of our tests to work with gfortran
57    o Non-Hydrostatic:
58     - put all NH variables (formerly in DYNVARS.h & GW.h) in NH_VARS.h
59     - fix exchange calls for CS-grid using the new EXCH_S3D_RL.
60    o Allow to apply AB on T,S rather than on AB(gT,gS):
61     - implemented within #ifdef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3
62     - use the same arrays (gtNm,gsNm) to hold tracer field at previous
63       time-steps (if AB(T,S)) and tendencies (if AB(gT,gS)).
64     - need a "clever" read_pickup to restart from the other AB formulation
65    o move local commom bloc /GlobalLo/ (used for singleCpuIO) in EESUPPORT.h
66    o remove some unused variables (reduces number of compiler warnings)
67    o adjoint
68      * Disable useVariableViscosity for adjoint for time being
69        (there are a number of extensive recomputations)
70      * Initialize certain variables needed for adjoint
71    
72    checkpoint57w_post
73    o pkg/mdsio: use MAX_LEN_FNAM (instead of hard coded 80) for file-names
74                 fix the singleCpuIO RS version of MDSWRITEFIELD
75       and add a WARNING if using globalFiles=T with multi-processors.
76    o write grid-file(s) in only one format (MDS or MNC): default=MNC (if
77      using MNC); can force MDS output by setting writegrid_mnc=F in data.mnc
78    o tracer advection scheme:
79      add DST-2 (=Lax-Wendroff) & 1rst order upwind schemes (the way to get
80       those 2 schemes before, changing GAD_FLUX_LIMITER.h + to recompile,
81       was not very convenient).
82      add implicit version for DST-3 & DST3_Flux_Limit vertical advection;  
83       (further tests needed for the implicit DST & Flux-Limiter schemes).
84    o PTRACERS: added namelist parameter PTRACERS_ref in analogy to tRef
85      and sRef for convenience, handy, when you want to initialize
86      ptracers in a large domain with a constant non-zero value. Also,
87      untangle ptracers_init.F a little.
88    
89    checkpoint57v_post
90    o change dome exp. to use variable viscosity in side-drag terms.
91    o remove all the files from the cfc_offline test since they are now
92      incorporated into tutorial_cfc_offline which has been producing
93      identical results for a few days of testing
94    o add new parameter: sideDragFactor to enable half-slip-side BC
95      and change side-drag S/R to use viscosity from mom_calc_visc
96      (can switch back by setting sideDragFactor=0.); affects results at
97      truncation level; regenerate output for exp.: global_ocean.cs32x10(x3),
98       global_ocean_ebm, global_ocean_pressure, matrix_example & MLAdjust(x5).
99    o vorticity & strain are now computed without masking, to account for
100      no-slip-side BC in variable viscosity calculation ; mask is applied
101      anyway later on, before computing advection/coriolis terms.
102    o modify exp4 to test new obcs support for reading from external files
103      and for passive tracers
104    o fix behavior of ptracers_monitor when monitor output is written to a
105      netcdf-file; still not independent of monitor.F (writes in the same
106      file).
107    o change default value of tRef (put a uniform, meaningful value for ocean
108      & atmos) and initialize sRef (was missing, as Martin mentioned).
109    o Redefine viscC?Leith*.  Change the coefficients of Leith viscosity
110      to be proportional to enstrophy dissipation length.  Thus,
111       viscC?leith?_new=pi*(viscC?leith?_old)^(1/3)
112      This is now consistent with Smagorinsky and with the manual.
113    
114    checkpoint57u_post
115    o OBCS and PTRACERS: add open boundary support for passive tracers
116      - either use homogenous (pseudo) v.Neumann conditions or prescribe
117        OB-values from file; this is not different from the way theta and salinity
118        are treated
119      - however, Orlanski-radiation conditions are not supported, and the model
120        will stop if you use pTracers and Orlanski at the same time.
121      - beefed up the rountine obcs_external_fields_load: now only those open
122        boundary values are overwritten with values from files for which there
123        are really files, otherwise the OB-fields remain untouched. This makes
124        it possible to use different OBs at different ends of the domain (as
125        with EXF)
126    o reduce number of exch calls in shap_filt (s2).
127    o CS-grid: fix divergence contribution to Leith viscosity. Affects (@
128      truncation level) 4/5 MLAdjust test results (11&12 digits match).
129    
130    checkpoint57t_post
131    o test biharmonic viscosity + no-slip with exp: global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
132    o finish adding brackets (coriolis S/R, vecinv) in multi-terms sum to get
133      same truncation, independent of the face number: affects affects several
134      test. exp.: Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
135    o fix bug in mom_v_sidedrag (biharmonic viscosity was counted 2 times);
136      note that biharmonic viscosity + no-slip was not tested in any experiment.
137    o fix bug in non-linear free-surf side-drag ; generate new output for
138      global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & global_ocean_pressure.
139    o make mnc honor the writeBinaryPrec flag for most kinds of output
140    o eesupp: split EEPARAMS into EESIZE/EEPARAMS and add a vector global sum
141    o minor change in averaging W (mom_vi_?_vertshear.F) that affects truncation
142      error; update output from global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
143    o add brackets in multi-terms sum to get same truncation, independent of
144      the face number (manage to get exactly same value of gU,gV at the cs-edge)
145      affects several test. exp. Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice).
146    o Clean, new version of mom_calc_visc.  Adds a new feature, viscAhRemax
147      and viscA4Remax, which allow one to limit the minimum viscosity by specifying
148      a maximum grid-scale Reynolds number.  Also, changes all length calculations
149      in the case of grid anisotropy to geometric mean of dx**2 and dy**2.
150      Suggested values of viscosity parameters found in mom_calc_visc.
151      Many new viscosity diagnostics available.
152    
153    checkpoint57s_post
154    o Add clearing-house for viscosity calculations, mom_calc_visc and
155      correct numerous bugs in LeithD and Smagorinsky discretizations.  
156      mom_calc_visc now allows for Smagorinsky, Leith and LeithD to be
157      used simultaneously, and to be used in mom_vecinv and mom_fluxform.
158      Mom_vecinv can be used with standard viscous calculation (mom_vi_hdissip.F)
159      and with Strain-Tension viscous term calculation (mom_hdissip.F).  
160      The Strain-Tension form is now called with useStrainTensonVisc=.true.
161      ViscAhStrain and viscAhTension are now retired.
162    o diagnostics "VISCAHD" & "VISCA4D" replace "VISCAH" & "VISCA4".
163    o In response to JMC's bug report, genmake2 now ignores any soft-links
164      that it finds in the *current* directory when searching for files.
165      Soft-links found in any other source directories will still work as
166      they did before.
167    o add HAVE_SETRLSTK define and useSETRLSTK flag (eedata) which calls
168      a C routine to unlimit the stack size
169    o mnc-ify pkg/aim snapshot vars
170    o mnc-ify pkg/land as requested by Daniel
171    o various changes to mnc including:
172      - all files use the new "BASENAME[[.ITER].{t|f}NUM].nc" format
173      - output can now be grouped so that all files within a group
174          change the ITER portion of their names in lock-step together
175      - can now read ("global") PER-FACE (in addition to PER-TILE) files
176          and works with both EXCH1 and EXCH2 (but needs more testing)
177      - writing works for all verification test cases w/ g77 on Linux
178    
179    checkpoint57r_post
180    o make MNC variable initialization happen earlier
181    o add diagnostics for (almost) each term of the momentum Eq.
182    o remove SST,SSS,UVEL_k2,VVEL_k2 diagnostics.
183    o move pkg timeave out of pkg-groups "oceanic" & "atmospheric" (pkg/pkg_groups)
184    o remove MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT option ;
185      add "dumpInitAndLast" to replace "nodumps" (and MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT).
186    o move some basic S/R (used elsewhere in the code) from pkg/mdsio to eesupp/src
187      allows to compile without pkg/mdsio (& test successfully hs94.1x64x5)
188    o add MNC output for adjoint of EXF (adexf), SEAICE (adseaice)
189    o add time-dependent SST, SSS control
190    o cost terms in ecco/ modularized (new cost_generic.F)
191    o cost_averages routines are modularized (new cost_averagesgeneric.F)
192    o new infrastructure for seaice model vs. obs misfits in seaice/
193      * driver from the_main_loop.F is seaice_cost_driver.F
194      * first term is AREA vs. SMR observation misfit (ALLOW_SEAICE_COST_SMR_AREA)
195      * gradient check in Exp. 6a of natl_box_adjoint/
196    o natl_box_adjoint input_seaice for Lab. Sea now available online via wget
197      (see README file)
198    
199    checkpoint57q_post
200    o fix initialisation Pb in calc_gw (get NANs in exp5 with g77)
201    o fix annoying months-old bug in mnc/mdsio output for seaice pkg
202      - bug was reported by Jean-Michel and Ian Fenty
203    o fix initialization Pb in AIM-Ocean coupled model (aim_sice2aim.F)
204      update exp. cpl_aim+ocn output.
205    o Implement 4-level checkpointing: AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
206      Needed for high-res. runs with large global files
207      to be able to limit tapelev size
208    o Changed some tests for adjoint:
209      * carbon/ now tests AUTODIFF_2_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
210      * natl_box_adjoint/code_bulk/ tests AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
211      * global_ocean.90x40x15/ back to default 3-level checkpointing
212    o Modifications to enable scripted COMMON to MODULE conversion
213      * verification/OpenAD/code/ has necessary scripts and description;
214      * converts, compiles and runs successfully;
215    
216    checkpoint57p_post
217    o reading of delXfile & delYfile moved from ini_parms.F to ini_grid.F
218    o move ${PKG}_MNC_INIT from ${PKG}_READ_PARAMS to ${PKG}_INIT_FIXED
219      (already the case for some pkgs, including recent MNC_init, e.g. thsice)
220    o call CALC_GW from DYNAMICS (instead of from FORWARD_STEP)
221    o Dissipation & phiHyd gradient are always added to gU,gV in timestep.F
222      (was already the case for dissipation with mom_vecinv,
223       and also the case for grad.PhiHyd when staggered-timeStep)
224      This will allow to put dissipation out-off the AB time-stepping.
225     Unfortunately, affects truncation error. Update output of exp. that "fails"
226      (cg2d matching number) and leave the others for later: front_relax(10),
227      global_ocean_pressure(10),ideal_2D_oce(10),internal_wave(9),lab_sea(12),
228      matrix_example(7!),natl_box(12),plume_on_slope(11),vermix(12x3,11x2).
229    
230    checkpoint57o_post
231    o fix MNC/MDSIO flags in PTRACERS so that (1) it works, and
232      (2) its ready to be documented during the 20050801 DocFest
233    o MNC-ify the gmredi package -- tested and works w/ and w/o mnc
234      for ideal_2D_oce and lab_sea on linux_ia32_g77
235    o set to #undef CTRL_SET_OLD_MAXCVARS_30
236      in global1x1_tot/code_seaice_adj to access indices 32, 33
237      (worth another tag)
238    
239    checkpoint57n_post
240    o adding precip control xx_precip 32
241    o adding swflux control xx_swflux 33
242    o Replacing 10 forcing penalty cost routines by 1 generic.
243    o Implementing partitioning in time-mean and variable adjustment
244      for atmos. state.
245    o Time-mean constant error is now read in data.ecco (instead of hard-coded)
246    o in natl_box_adjoint:
247      * updated exp 1 to 10
248        (but does not have time-mean vs. variable split results yet)
249    o updated global1x1/*_seaice_adj/
250      to incorporate latest changes
251    o enable useSingleCpuIO for mdsio vector routines
252      (applies in particular to tapelev I/O)
253    o removed inefficient K-loop in all active_file*control*.F
254    
255    checkpoint57m_post
256    o re-arrange exp. adjustment.cs-32x32x1 (adjust_nlfs.cs-32x32x1 merge into)
257      and advect_cs (use EXCH-2 and standard cs-32 grid files).
258    o pkg/exch2: filling of face-corner halo regions is optional
259      (ifdef W2_FILL_NULL_REGIONS) and is turned off by default.
260    
261    checkpoint57l_post
262     tag before updating tutorials (pre-release-2)
263    o add cos & sin of grid-direction orientation angle (curvilinear grid only,
264       for output and interpolation of input fields onto model grid)
265    o fix radius in mom_v_metric_cylinder.F (wrong by dy/2).
266       Affects results of exp. rotating_tank ; update output.txt.
267    o pkg/diagnostics: 2 new S/R to fill a diagnostics using a scaling factor
268          and taking the square quantity and/or using a fraction-weight field.
269    o fix aim_diagnostics_init.F mate numbers.
270    o add mnc output capability to diagnostics/diagstat and update
271      our cvsignore files for the ACSII output generated
272    
273    checkpoint57k_post
274    o lab_sea now uses diagnostics package and provides a suite of
275      new EXF diagnostics output.
276    
277    checkpoint57j_post
278    o exf
279      * bug fix in exf_bulkformulae for psimh (spotted by Eliyahu Biton):
280        Bracket missing in eqn. for psimh (eqn. 7 of Large & Pond, 1982);
281        terms -2*ATAN(x) + pi/2 were added to both stable and unstable case.
282      * extended diagnostics output
283        - now includes all EXF variables
284        - hs, hl moved to common block
285        - separate S/R for diagnostics, called after ctrl vector is added
286        - name changed for EXFsw -> EXFswnet, EXFlw -> EXFlwnet
287        - EXFqnet contains true Qnet (i.e. includes qsw)
288      * updated verif. lab_sea, global_with_exf
289      * Rearranging hflux (exf_mapfields -> exf_getforcing)
290        to ensure that diagnostics sees a true EXFqnet
291    o add matlab scripts for CS-grid vectors (in utils/cs_grid)
292    o diagnostics pkg: change pointers so that 1 diagnostic can be used
293      several times with different frequencies.
294    o mnc-ify the thsice package as requested by Daniel Enderton
295      - the monitor--MNC output needs work
296      - many attributes need to be added (most are currently blank)
297    o mnc-ify theaim_v23 package as requested by Daniel Enderton
298      - many attributes need to be added (most are currently blank)
299    o remove "groundAtK1" & "rkFac" (replaced by usingPCoords & -rkSign)
300    o add Sadourny like discretization to the 4th.O vorticity advection scheme
301    o fix bug in rStar code (calc_r_star.F) when used with topo/bathy.
302      update output.txt from: aim.5l_cs (& .thSI), cpl_aim+ocn,
303         fizhi-gridalt-hs and global_ocean.cs32x15 (& .thsice).
304    o fix few little things to avoid floating error with -ftrapuv (ifort v9)
305     (ini_spherical_polar_grid.F, calc_r_star.F, monitor/mon_surfcor.F)
306    
307    checkpoint57i_post
308    o Diagnostics package was changed: diagnostic allocation is now deactivated
309      by setting an empty file name in the namelist (used to be by setting 0 frequency)
310    o momentum advection (VI form) options: activate 4th.O vorticity Coriolis ;
311      add 1rst Order upwind vertical Shear.
312    o add a quick fix for A/B checkpointing in OFFLINE mode
313    o add IGNORE_TIME define and -ignore_time option to genmake2 as an
314      end-run around the C/Fortran linking horror in eesup/src/timers.F
315    o added pkg/runclock: allows user to terminate run based on wall clock
316    o added non-hydrostatic scaling parameter: nh_am2
317    o pkg/my82: futile attempt to make results compiler-independent by adding
318      some "_d 0", etc. no effect.
319    o for mnc output, fill the 'T' coordinate var with myTime and create a
320      separate 'iter' variable for iteration count
321    o pkg/diagnostics:
322      add new capability: output of Global/Regional & per-level statistics ;
323      tested against monitor output (including land & thSIce) on various exp.
324    o make seaice-pkg I/O type flags (MNC/MDS) more standard.
325    
326    checkpoint57h_done
327      tag after changing user customized files (DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h,
328      data.diagnostics, data.gchem, data.ptracers) is done.
329    
330    o pkg/diagnostics: prepare for Global/Regional statistics.
331      add 2nd namelist in data.diagnostics and update DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h
332    o remove "baseTime" (no used) from arg. list of DIFF_BASE_MULTIPLE
333      and rename it: DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE
334    
335    checkpoint57h_post
336    o move tIter0 from data.gchem to PTRACERS_Iter0 in data.ptracers
337    o pkg/diagnostics: change output frequency, now in seconds (instead
338      of Nb of iterations). This requires to change data.diagnostics.
339    checkpoint57h_pre
340    
341    o in mnc, let the user create the output dir if both mnc_outdir_date
342      and mnc_outdir_num are false
343    o add fflags() to pkg/diagnostics which allows one to specify, on a
344      per-file basis, the file precision [default behavior is unchanged]
345    o added diagnostics to pkg/kpp, including computation of mixed layer
346      depth based on a temperature/density criterion
347    o updated verification/natl_box to test the new pkg/kpp diagnostics
348    o bugs fixed (with useAbsVorticity=T & with useJamartMomAdv=T)
349    o test AB-3 code with 4th.Order advection scheme (advect_xy/input.ab3_c4)
350    o fix mnc flags in pkg/seaice so that they are "owned" by seaice,
351      not mnc -- this mistake was found by JMC and is now corrected
352    
353    checkpoint57g_post
354    o add Adams-Bashforth 3rd Order time stepping:
355      - default remains AB-2 (#undef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3)
356      - not yet implemented with NH, CD_Scheme, pTracers, MNC_pickup ...
357    checkpoint57g_pre
358    
359    o make lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax spatially varying
360      (default remains spatially uniform constant based on tau)
361    o added new control variables
362      * init. uVel, vVel, etanN
363      * lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax
364    o separate masks used for ctrl_pack/unpack 'from write_grid' output
365      (suggested by G. Forget)
366    
367    checkpoint57f_post
368    o add parameter "baseTime" = model base time = time at iteration zero
369      new function DIFF_BASE_MULTIPLE (replace DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE) to
370      account for baseTime shift
371    o move Coriolis arrays from PARAMS.h to GRID.h
372    checkpoint57f_pre
373    
374    o mnc-ifying the seaice package
375    o introduced an alternative length scale calculation for use in the limiting
376      maximum viscosity (off by default, see mom_vi_hdissip.F for details)
377    o S/R ptracers_calc_diff: argument list bug for CALL KPP_CALC_DIFF_S
378    o added modified Leith scheme with viscosity proportional to grad(Hdiv)
379      as well as grad(vort3).  Made it compatible with both approximate form
380      for the cubed sphere and full form of these gradients.  Added flag
381      useFullLeith to select between approximate and full form.  
382    o add "d0" in getcon.F to reduce differences between compilers/platforms
383      update output.txt of exp. fizhi-gridalt-hs
384    o change port_rand funtion to allow to set the seed.
385    o fix obscure MNC bug involving conversion between reals and integers
386      - it caused no problems with certain (eg. gcc, ifc) compilers but the
387        new version is now more standards-compliant
388    o adjoint-related modifications
389      * gad_dst3_adv_?: to be able to use advscheme=30 in adjoint
390      * gad_calc_rhs: fool adjoint, revert to advscheme=30 in reverse when using 33
391      * mom_vi_hdissip: to be able to use Leith scheme in adjoint
392    
393    checkpoint57e_post
394    o Adding eddy stress controls a la Ferreira et al.
395    checkpoint57e_pre (actually was tagged: eckpoint57e_pre)
396    
397    o fizhi pkg: fix AtoC and CtoA when called with same input & output array
398      update output.txt of exp. fizhi-gridalt-hs
399    o add more "Z" dimensions and associated coordinate vars to MNC
400    o pkg/exf: added twoDigitYear capability for option useExfYearlyFields
401    o parameter calendarDumps: when set, approximate months (30-31 days) and years
402      (360-372 days) for parameters chkPtFreq, pChkPtFreq, taveFreq, SEAICE_taveFreq,
403      KPP_taveFreq, and freq in pkg/diagnostics are converted to exact calendar
404      months and years.  Requires pkg/cal.
405    o diagnostics: add pickup functionality
406      - off by default for backwards compatibility
407      - current version only uses MDSIO -- MNC will be added
408    o allow to use pkg diagnostics for LAND pkg output & Shapiro Tendencies.
409    o pkg/shap_filt: fix for multi-tiles per face (CS-grid with EXCH2)
410    
411    checkpoint57d_post
412    o pkg/thsice used in the ocean: fix tile Pb related to sIceLoad forcing
413    o modify verification/ideal_2D_oce so that it tests the creation of mnc
414      output from the diagnostics package
415    o temporary fix in EXCH2_UV: add a 3rd call to fix the 24.tiles CS-grid set-up
416    o make genmake2 more portable by using ".$FS" instead of ".f" for more
417      of the test compilations (eg. IBM xlf on Mac OSX w/HFS filesys)
418    o add coordinate variables to the MNC output from the diagnostics package
419    o change MNC-flags default value: true when useMNC=TRUE
420    o add a "readgrid_mnc" flag to MNC and give model/src/ini_curvilinear_grid.F
421      the ability (off by default) to read the grid information using MNC
422    o lab_sea: use LSR_ERROR=1.E-12 for testing ; update output.txt
423    o diagnostics: fix a bug (sub-set of levels); keep full precision when averaging
424    o do snap-shot diagnostics at the middle of the time-interval (instead of
425      at the end).
426    o update exp. aim.5l_cs (use default LAND_OPTIONS.h file) and add
427      new test for AIM with thSIce + slab-ocean
428    o cpl_aim+ocn test: update output (optfile & default GMREDI_OPTIONS.h)
429    o move state variable diagnostics to the beginning of the time step ;
430      (note: still needs some work specially for snap-shot diagnostics)
431      duplicate & replace UVELVVEL diagnostics with UV_VEL_C & UV_VEL_Z
432    
433    checkpoint57c_post
434    o Change testing option (-ieee) to get closer agreement between g77 & ifort
435    o generate new output.txt files on faulks with g77 & the new -ieee option
436    checkpoint57c_pre
437    
438    o add "_d 0" in freeze ; change some "FLOAT" to "DFLOAT" and went back (TAF);
439      update output.txt of exp. global_ocean.90x40x15
440    o fix in ini_eos.F (one "_d 0" was missing): now g77 & ifc give much closer
441      results; update global_ocean_pressure & global_ocean.cs32x15 output.txt
442    o add saltFlux(+File) forcing capability with periodicExternalForcing
443    o allow to use pkg diagnostics for GM-Redi & ThSIce output
444    o diagnostics_fill: fill in up to sNx+1 or sNy+1 (if U,V or Z pt) for mnc.
445    o improvements for the MNC output from DIAGNOSTICS:
446      - correct handling of the unlimitied dimension
447      - all dims now have associated coordinate variables
448      - variables located at U, V, and Corner ("Z") points are now written
449        with the correct horzontal dimensions (eg. 'Xp1', 'Yp1') so that
450        *all* data points are output
451    o added seaice_summary.F and removed obsolete ALLOW_SEAICE's from pkg/seaice
452    o added pkg/seaice/seaice_monitor.F
453    o mdsio_readfield.F can now read files visible only to master MPI process.
454    o pkg/seaice: some test code for ice-modified ocean stress
455    o exf_getffields interpolation defaults to bilinear for all scalar forcing
456      fields (remains bicubic for wind velocity and stress).  This avoids, e.g.,
457      spurious negative numbers for precipitation and humidity.  Will cause
458      some small numerical differences for integrations using pkg/exf/exf_interp.F.
459    o pkg/ctrl/
460      * Add ctrlvec diagnostics in pack/unpack for nondimensional I/O
461        May be enabled via doPackDiag
462      *  introduce z-scaling of
463         + gradient (doZscalePack) and
464         + control (doZscaleUnpack)
465    o pkg/mdsio/
466      * enable useSingleCpuIO for state estimation (ctrl_pack/unpack) mdsio_gl.F
467      * N.B.: leave tiled I/O for tapelev (i.e. mds...vector)
468    
469    checkpoint57b_post
470    o simplify options in diagnostics_fill arguments (remove weird combinations)
471    o fix MNC coordinate variables so that they now contain per-face index
472      values (instead of xC,xG,yC,yG values) when run with EXCH2 since, in
473      general, EXCH2 grids are only aligned to a "local" coordinate system
474    o test diagnostics pkg in dic_example (no output) and ideal_2D_oce (with ouput)
475    o Implement instantaneous output within pkg diagnostics:
476      setting a negative frequency in data.diagnostics produces
477     "snap-shot" output (as opposed to time-average if freq > 0)
478    o move out off EQUIVALENCE all diagnostics that fizhi does not use ;
479      NOTE: change ptracer diagnostics name: use 2 characters to work with
480            more than 9 tracers. Add also diagnostics of advect & diffus flux.
481    o more CF compliance: convert all MNC 'iter' variables to 'T' so that it
482      becomes the coordinate variable for the 'T' dimension
483    o add CF-style coordinate variables to MNC
484      - just a first cut:  numbers are meaningless on the cubesphere and
485        missing along the T axis but otherwise it works!
486    o add surface flux diagnostics: TAUX, TAUY, TFLUX, TRELAX, TICE, SFLUX, SRELAX
487    o pkg/thSIce: read initial state from 6 files ; allow monitor to use MNC.
488    o add diagnostics of advective & diffusive flux for T & S (pTracers coming soon)
489      this is based directly on what the model compute, so that the content of
490      each diagnostics might be affected by switching options (e.g., implicitDiffusion)
491    o small changes for diagnostics (gad_biharm_?.F, arguments of S/R impldiff.F)
492    o clean up build options files for SunOS, in particular
493      - remove -traditional from xmakedepend
494      - change -xarch=v9 to -xarch=native for f77
495      - restore use of make (not gmake)
496      - add CC=gcc if using g77
497    o changes per discussion of AM, JMC, & EH3 today:
498      - move redundant "grid" variables out of "state" -- in preparation of
499        creating proper CF-style coordinate variables and in recognition
500        that any/all grid variables can be easily copied (eg. w/NCO) from
501        the grid files into any of the other NetCDF files
502      - *always* output grid variables with MDSIO (this will eventually be
503        changed)
504      - output MNC grid file if useMNC is true
505    o every instance of _END_MASTER() has been found and replaced with
506      _END_MASTER( myThid ) in order to satisfy certain picky Sun
507      preprocessors
508    o re-arrange diagnostics pkg initialisation:
509     - allow each package to extend the available diagnostics list
510     - add some checking and fix small problems (multi-threaded, ...)
511     - new S/R diagnostics_fill (replace fill_diagnostics):
512       look through the short list of active diag. (instead of the long list)
513       create function DIAGNOSTICS_IS_ON to tell if a diagnostics is active
514    
515    checkpoint57a_post
516    o this set of changes restores TAMC compatibility
517      tested for global_ocean.90x40x15 adjoint on trough
518      (what a pain)
519    
520    checkpoint57a_pre
521    o some modifs in tools/build_options for sunos
522    o call ctrl_pack for ctrl at end for optimcycle=0
523    
524    checkpoint57
525    o add horizontal bi-harmonic viscosity for vertical velocity
526      - new parameter viscA4W (defaults to viscA4)
527      - affects only non-hydrostatic code
528      - to be done: no-slip lateral boundary conditions
529    o switch back to "sflux = sflux - runoff" in exf_getforcing.F
530    o implement Implicit Vertical advection for pTracers
531    o depth convergence accelerator: replace deltaTtracer by dTtracerLev(k)
532      (implemented also for implicit vertical diffusion & advection)
533    o OBCS: extend application of tracer open boundary conditions
534      to a strip beyond the boundary of width Olx/Oly
535    o add call monitor to TAF set of required calls (flow directives)
536      and include in natl_box_adjoint
537    o untangle a few ifdefs related to cost, ctrl, autodiff
538      untangel a few ALLOW_ECCO_OPTIMIZATION
539    o Apply Cooper & Haines representative estimates also at sub-surface (k=Nr)
540      (theta2, salt2 in ecco_cost_weights)
541    
542    checkpoint56c_post
543    o OBCS as control variables
544      - update ctrl_ad_diff.list, obcs_ad_diff.list
545      - remove balance of obcs controls from default
546      - fix index bug nobcs in ctrl_init
547      - fix dummy fields filen in ctrl_pack
548      - add dummy weights for obcs
549    o lsopt: comment out fort.94 output
550    o optim:
551      - remove unnecessary header files
552      - adjusted namelists
553      - add xerbla.F to Makefile
554    o exf:
555      - multiple modifications of exf_check_range
556      - unit change in exf_init_runoff from [m/year] to [m/s]
557    o mdsio:
558      - i/o-vector change debugLevel from debLevA to debLevB
559    
560    checkpoint56b_post
561    o collect all ptracers output in an new routine (PTRACERS_OUTPUT) that
562      is called from DO_THE_MODEL_IO
563      - rename PTRACERS_STATV_WRITE to PTRACERS_WRITE_TIMEAVE
564      - introduce new parameter PTRACERS_dumpFreq (defaults to dumpFreq)
565      - clean up PTRACERS_WRITE_TIMEAVE a little
566    o add another verification experiment that tests both the cfc-pkg and
567      the gchem-pkg with GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING undefined, that is with
568      reactive tendencies treated inline with regular timestepping
569    o testreport previously did a lousy job of comparing small numbers, so
570      we (Ed and Martin) changed the  way the cut-off of 1.e-12 is
571      implemented in the little c-progam tmp_cmpnum.c which is embedded in
572      testreport.
573    o ptracers_monitor: bug fix for MPI
574    
575    checkpoint56a_post
576    o GCHEM: finish reorganizating the package
577      - forward_step calls GCHEM_CALC_TENDENDY, which computes gchemTendency
578        (introduces another 3D-array for each passive tracer, but only if
579        GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING is undefined. For GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING
580        gchemTendency is not needed because the timestep is done separately)
581      - gchemTendency is added to gPtr in GCHEM_ADD_TENDENCY
582      - GCHEM is now---more or less cleanly---separate from PTRACERS
583      - to bo done: handling of surfaceForcingPtr that is needed for KPP not
584        so clear to me how that should be done in a general way.
585    o CFC: improve formatting of output in CFC_ATMOS
586    o PTRACERS:
587      - rename GCHEM_MONITOR to PTRACERS_MONITOR and call it from MONITOR, so
588        that ALL experiments with ptracers enable can be checked. This makes
589        GCHEM_MONITOR obsolete.
590      - include a runtime parameter PTRACERS_monitorFreq that defaults to
591        monitorFreq
592      - set default PTRACERS_write_mdsio to false if PTRACERS_write_mnc is true
593    o add PTRACERS (PTR0[1-5]) to testreport output
594    o exf_check_range:
595      * default changed to .TRUE.
596      * will check values for niter0 if debLevA, every timestep if debLevB
597      * STOP in exf_check_range if 'out of range'
598      * range chosen generous to allow for potential extema
599      TBD: a version with stricter range
600           permitted range would be runtime parameters
601  o GMredi:  o GMredi:
602    - fix ldd97 slope limit ; extend valid domain of Psi-Bolus ;    - fix ldd97 slope limit ; extend valid domain of Psi-Bolus ;
603    - 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.

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