5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o ptracers adjoint:
8      * avoid extensive recomputatations
9      * fix missing re-init. of gptr (missed by TAF)
10    o obcs: add a flag (OBCSprintDiags, defaults is true) that allows
11      me to turn off the excessive output to STDOUT that this package produces
12    o move NH metric terms & 3.D Coriolis S/R to pkg/mom_common
13      and add those terms in Vector-Invariant formulation.
14    o in ctrl pkg, if ALLOW_CAL, use monthly mean controls
15      if the control period (xx_hfluxperiod etc) is 0
16    o in profiles pkg, clean routines and fix details
17    o in ecco pkg, reading ssh data:
18      fix problem in case the model does not start at iter0=0
19    o fix mnc-pickup/restart for ptracers
20    o new package prifiles:
21      code to compute profile-based cost by Gael Forget
22      (modifs in ecco, ctrl, autodiff)
23    o Benign bug fix in initialization (spotted by M. Mazloff) of
24      ctrl_set_globfld_xz.F ctrl_set_globfld_yz.F
25    
26    checkpoint58c_post
27    o adjoint: finish NLFS adjoint and provide reference output in
28      verification/global_ocean.90x40x15/results_ad_nlfs
29    o seaice: add an EVP solver following Hunke and Dukowicz (1997) and the
30      documentation of CICE. Turn on by defining SEAICE_ALLOW_EVP in
31      SEAICE_OPTIONS.h and SEAICEuseEVP=.true. in data.seaice. Works only
32      with SEAICE_CGRID defined.
33    o move calendarDumps from "data" to "data.cal" and clean-up the code
34      with a simple call to pkg/cal S/R: CAL_TIME2WRITE
35    o add useEXF & useCAL flags (for now, set in hard-coded way)
36    o add S/R to compute NH-metrics terms & Coriolis f' in vertical momentum
37      (were missing in NH mode, and wrong in quasihydrostatic mode).
38      waiting for Chris updated version of calc_gw to add those CALLs.
39    o fix bug in quasihydrostatic S/R ;
40      add a test for this option: global_ocean.90x40x15.qshyd
41    o new S/R "SET_PARMS": set parameters that might depend on the use of some pkgs.
42      (called from INITIALISE_FIXED, after INI_PARMS & PACKAGES_READPARAMS)
43    o add on/off flag useOffLine for package OFFLINE
44    o seaice:
45      - modify advection so that it works also on the C-grid
46      - extend loop ranges in seaice_lsr and seaice_dynsolver; fixes
47        problem in multi-tile runs with C-grid
48      - add flags for clipping ice velocities and/or masking solver forcing
49      - fix drag (ocean on ice) formulation and a bug that caused noise in the
50        C-grid solver
51      - added a few comments to seaice_diffusion.F
52      - separate C-grid and B-grid versions more cleanly (UVM and seaiceMaskU/V
53        are now exclusive)
54      - add a new ocean-ice stress coupling method (Hibler and Bryan, 1987) which
55        required re-ordering the code a little:
56       + make DAIRN global variable (defined in SEAICE)
57       + move computation of the viscosities eta and zeta into a new separate
58         routine (because I need to recompute them in seaice_ocean_stress.F)
59    
60    checkpoint58b_post
61    o AIM+thSIce: fix sign of Short-Wave through the Ice ;
62      update output.txt of exp. aim.5l_cs.thSI
63    o various mnc cleanups and improvements:
64      + shrink lookup tables by factor of ~4
65      + better error reporting when running out of lookup space
66      + able to handle longer path/file names (up to 500 chars)
67    o adjoint:
68      - Another overhaul of store dirs. for NLFS to eliminate  "hidden" recomputations.
69      - TBD: "hidden" mom_vecinv recomp. in dynamics
70    o change forcing_In_AB to affects both T,S forcing and Momentum forcing
71     (allow to differentiate between forcing components using new integer flags:
72      momForcingOutAB=1/0 & tracForcingOutAB=1/0)
73     and add new flag to put Dissipation tendency out of Adams-Bashforth.
74    o ecco
75      - enable trend removal from SSH anomaly obs.
76    o adjoint
77      - a fix for PmEpR when #undef EXACT_CONSERV
78      - fix of "hidden" recomp. in thermodynamics (no TAF warnings)
79      - try to fix "hidden" recomp. in forward_step for NLFS
80        (NLFS seems broken sometimes after I checked it in)
81    o seaice:
82     - add c-grid version of the dynamic solver:
83       + three new routines that are the c-grid substitute lsr, dynsolver
84         and ostres
85       + put a few fields that were local to dynsolver into global common
86         blocks, so that I can move the computation of stresses etc into
87         seaice_lsr (saves coding but may break the adjoint).
88     - replace more hardwired parameters by runtime parameters
89     - add ice masks that mask the rhs of the implicit solvers where there
90       is no ice (commented out in seaice_dynsolver, because i am not sure
91       if this works properly), eventually this should replace the clipping
92       of ice velocities in seaice_dynsolver to +/-40cm/s.
93    o remove the BUILD_INFO.h include from CPP_EEOPTIONS.h and explicitly
94      include it only where its needed
95    o move balancing of fluxes before the call of external_forcing_surf
96    o seaice:
97      - correct units of turning angles (now they are really in degrees)
98      - move computation of GWATX/Y out of main routine into dynsolver
99      - initialize GWATX/Y in seaice_init
100    o Apply mask on Fresh-Water flux (needed for SSH forcing).
101      update output.txt of exp. global_ocean_ebm & cpl_aim+ocn (affects cg2d residual)
102    o seaice: add runtime flags for turning angles (default to zero)
103    o Adding runtime parameter to exf/, ctrl/, to remove on-the-fly global mean
104      and trend from exf forcing and ctrl control adjustments
105    o fix variable aliasing in gad_calc_rhs that cannot be handled by TAF
106      (since checkpoint57x_post)
107    o change the default rotation period to 86164.s = the Earth rotation
108    o 1rst implementation of Implicit IGW using the 3-D solver (use3Dsolver=T)
109      and based on a reference stratification. Tested within hs94.cs-32x32x5.
110    o seaice advection: add code for choosing between the default (2nd order
111      central differences) and multiDim advection schemes provided by
112      pkg/generic_advdiff
113    o seaice:
114      - removed all references to SEAICE_GRID.h fields from
115        dynsolver, advect, diffus, lsr, without changing the results of lab_sea
116        (cubed-sphere configuration will change a little)
117      - grid computations in seaice_init are obsolete now.
118      - cleaned up code a little so that is easier to read (hopefully).
119      - added new (better?) discretizations of default advection and diffusion
120        (turn on with SEAICEuseFluxForm)
121      - replace 1 in 3d global fields by kSurface in growth.F
122      
123    checkpoint58a_post
124    o seaice:
125      - bug fix in advect.F
126    o shelfice:
127      - separate shelfice load anomaly from pload (breaks with time
128        dependent forcing), => introduce constant field shelficeLoadAnomaly.
129        Its default is 0., but it may be computed more cleverly from (unknown)
130        t- and s-profiles (tRef, sRef) and actual EOS. For now this has to be
131        done offline. A good approximation of the pressure load anomaly is
132        necessary to avoid large initial adjustment processes underneath
133        deep-reaching shelfice.
134      - small fix in ISOMIP shelfice_thermodynamics
135      - add more sophisticated thermodynamics of Hellmer (1989), this is
136        now the default
137      - give a few constants more intuitive names
138    o add code to balance EmPmP and Qnet at the end of do_ocean_physics. Useful
139      if bulk formulae are used in long integration (especially EmPmR). Turn
140      on with balanceEmPmR = .true. or balanceQnet = .true. in data, PARM01
141      if balancePrintMean, the imbalance that is substracted is printed to
142      STDOUT.
143    o fix bug (typo) in obcs_apply_eta.F
144    o add a new package shelfice which enables us to model the circulation
145      underneath shelf-ice with draughts of hundreds of meters.
146     - works
147     - to do: + include improved thermodynamics
148              + check whether kSurfC (from model/inc/SURFACE.h) can be used
149                instead of new field kTopC
150              + can we use topoFile, Ro_surf and existing code in ini_depth.F
151                instead of new field R_shelfIce and new code in ini_depth.F
152                and ini_mask_etc.F?
153              + adjust vertical mixing schemes?
154    o seaice pkg:
155     - add a cpp-flag to include a simple formula for a salinity dependent
156       freezing point of sea water at the surface
157     - change the contents of SEAICE_TEST_ICE_STRESS_1 so that zonal and
158       meridional stresses are now different (and hopefully correct)
159    o AIM pkg: change threshold on large-scale condensation to conserve Heat.
160       update results of aim.5l_LatLon test ; fix title & units of AIM diagnostics
161       and  change 3 diagnostics names (OSR,OSRCLR,KM -> TSR,TSRCLR,DRAG)
162    o pkg/diagnostics: add options and parameters for regional-statistics
163       diagnostics ; define regions by reading a region-mask from a file
164       (might add other options later)
165    o pkg/bulk_force:
166     - add option and parameters to use AIM surface-flux formulae.
167     - Change loading part: S/R BULKF_FIELDS_LOAD only take care of bulkf_fields ;
168       others forcing fields (defined in PARM05, parameter file "data") are loaded
169       from S/R EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD, as usually (with useBulkforce = T or F).
170     - initialise all bulkf_fields in bulkf_init.F ; do in-lining of exf_bulkcdn.F
171     - use the right EXCH call for uwind,vwind (to work on CS-grid).
172     - re-arrange header files (move parameters from BULKF.h to BULKF_PARAMS.h)
173       and parameters (note: calcWindStress replaces .NOT.readwindstress).
174     - cleaner interface with pkg/thSIce (new S/R THSICE_GET_PRECIP).
175    
176    checkpoint58
177    o add "--embed-source" option to genmake2 which, when the supporting
178      tools can be compiled (as determined by genmake2) will turn on the
179      embed_files package which then embeds the entire MITgcm source code
180      (*.[fFhc] + Makefile) used for the build within the executable
181      - requested by CNH but off by default
182      - adds a paltry <9MB to the mitgcmuv executable in most cases
183      - only writes the output when useEMBEDSRC in eedata is true
184    o clean up 3-dim. relaxation codes:
185      * Fix I/O inconsistency in pkg/rbcs: replace precFloat32 by readBinaryPrec
186      * Remove 3-dim. relaxation code from pkg/exf (now use only pkg/rbcs)
187      * Thanks to Tom Haine for testing!
188    
189    checkpoint57z_post
190    o make CG3D solver compatible with Free-surface at k > 1 (p-coordinate):
191      affects output (@ truncation level) of exp. plume_on_slope ; updated.
192    o fix the pickup behavior for obcs in combination with ptracers
193    o fix a bug in ptracers_external_fields_load
194    o no AB-2 at the first iteration for Gw (consistent with Gu,Gv,Gt,Gs ...)
195      affects results of NH experiments (but all our NH tests have Gw[it=1]==0 !!)
196    o transfered surface NH pressure to eta field (if exactConserv).
197    o gmredi: fix bugs in slope tapering ldd97 (depthZ had the wrong sign)
198         and update lab_sea output.txt file.
199    o completing 3-dim. relaxation code: additional term
200         1/tau*( theta(i,j,k) - thetaStar(i,j,k) )
201      in S/R EXTERNAL_FORCING_T (file external_forcing.F)
202      * At compile time, in "EXF_OPTIONS.h" set
203          #define  ALLOW_CLIMTEMP_RELAXATION
204          #define  ALLOW_CLIMSALT_RELAXATION
205      * At runtime in "data", under &PARM03 set (e.g., units in seconds)
206          tauThetaClimRelax3Dim = 15552000.0,
207          tauSaltClimRelax3Dim  = 15552000.0,
208      * 3 cases:
209          1) Use a constant-in-time 3-dim. field
210          2) Provide 12 3-dim. fields corresponding to Jan., ... , Dec.
211          3) Real-time relax. to time-evolving prescribed field
212    o Adding Laplacian-type smoothness constraint on
213      initial and boundary (forcing) controls (ic, bc)
214      * enable at compile-time via
215        ALLOW_SMOOTH_IC_COST_CONTRIBUTION, ALLOW_SMOOTH_BC_COST_CONTRIBUTION
216      * enable at run-time via mult_smooth_ic = 1, mult_smooth_bc = 1
217      * Absolute scale somewhat unclear so far
218      * no area weighting was included since no other cost term does so far
219    
220    checkpoint57y_post
221    First step for a NLFS adjoint
222    o initially suppress rStar (new flag DISABLE_RSTAR_CODE)
223    o new init. routines for calc_r_star, calc_surf_dr
224    o still need to deal with ini_masks_etc
225    o testreport seemed happy
226    checkpoint57y_pre
227    
228    o obcs: always reset wVel & eta (to zero or prescribe it) at the OBs.
229    o add new package rbcs (for relaxing ptracers at boundaries/depth/surface etc)
230    o add new offset feature to offline pkg (plus minor cleanup)
231    o cfc fixes for final year of integration
232    o clean up GCHEM_OPTIONS.h/DIC_OPTIONS.h (all options should
233      be in GCHEM_OPTIONS).
234    
235    checkpoint57x_post
236    o fix testreport Pb in multiple test experiment.
237    o cleanup our namelist syntax in verification:
238      - make it more F95 standards compliant (some work still needed)
239      - allows the vast majority of our tests to work with gfortran
240    o Non-Hydrostatic:
241     - put all NH variables (formerly in DYNVARS.h & GW.h) in NH_VARS.h
242     - fix exchange calls for CS-grid using the new EXCH_S3D_RL.
243    o Allow to apply AB on T,S rather than on AB(gT,gS):
244     - implemented within #ifdef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3
245     - use the same arrays (gtNm,gsNm) to hold tracer field at previous
246       time-steps (if AB(T,S)) and tendencies (if AB(gT,gS)).
247     - need a "clever" read_pickup to restart from the other AB formulation
248    o move local commom bloc /GlobalLo/ (used for singleCpuIO) in EESUPPORT.h
249    o remove some unused variables (reduces number of compiler warnings)
250    o adjoint
251      * Disable useVariableViscosity for adjoint for time being
252        (there are a number of extensive recomputations)
253      * Initialize certain variables needed for adjoint
254    
255    checkpoint57w_post
256    o pkg/mdsio: use MAX_LEN_FNAM (instead of hard coded 80) for file-names
257                 fix the singleCpuIO RS version of MDSWRITEFIELD
258       and add a WARNING if using globalFiles=T with multi-processors.
259    o write grid-file(s) in only one format (MDS or MNC): default=MNC (if
260      using MNC); can force MDS output by setting writegrid_mnc=F in data.mnc
261    o tracer advection scheme:
262      add DST-2 (=Lax-Wendroff) & 1rst order upwind schemes (the way to get
263       those 2 schemes before, changing GAD_FLUX_LIMITER.h + to recompile,
264       was not very convenient).
265      add implicit version for DST-3 & DST3_Flux_Limit vertical advection;  
266       (further tests needed for the implicit DST & Flux-Limiter schemes).
267    o PTRACERS: added namelist parameter PTRACERS_ref in analogy to tRef
268      and sRef for convenience, handy, when you want to initialize
269      ptracers in a large domain with a constant non-zero value. Also,
270      untangle ptracers_init.F a little.
271    
272    checkpoint57v_post
273    o change dome exp. to use variable viscosity in side-drag terms.
274    o remove all the files from the cfc_offline test since they are now
275      incorporated into tutorial_cfc_offline which has been producing
276      identical results for a few days of testing
277    o add new parameter: sideDragFactor to enable half-slip-side BC
278      and change side-drag S/R to use viscosity from mom_calc_visc
279      (can switch back by setting sideDragFactor=0.); affects results at
280      truncation level; regenerate output for exp.: global_ocean.cs32x10(x3),
281       global_ocean_ebm, global_ocean_pressure, matrix_example & MLAdjust(x5).
282    o vorticity & strain are now computed without masking, to account for
283      no-slip-side BC in variable viscosity calculation ; mask is applied
284      anyway later on, before computing advection/coriolis terms.
285    o modify exp4 to test new obcs support for reading from external files
286      and for passive tracers
287    o fix behavior of ptracers_monitor when monitor output is written to a
288      netcdf-file; still not independent of monitor.F (writes in the same
289      file).
290    o change default value of tRef (put a uniform, meaningful value for ocean
291      & atmos) and initialize sRef (was missing, as Martin mentioned).
292    o Redefine viscC?Leith*.  Change the coefficients of Leith viscosity
293      to be proportional to enstrophy dissipation length.  Thus,
294       viscC?leith?_new=pi*(viscC?leith?_old)^(1/3)
295      This is now consistent with Smagorinsky and with the manual.
296    
297    checkpoint57u_post
298    o OBCS and PTRACERS: add open boundary support for passive tracers
299      - either use homogenous (pseudo) v.Neumann conditions or prescribe
300        OB-values from file; this is not different from the way theta and salinity
301        are treated
302      - however, Orlanski-radiation conditions are not supported, and the model
303        will stop if you use pTracers and Orlanski at the same time.
304      - beefed up the rountine obcs_external_fields_load: now only those open
305        boundary values are overwritten with values from files for which there
306        are really files, otherwise the OB-fields remain untouched. This makes
307        it possible to use different OBs at different ends of the domain (as
308        with EXF)
309    o reduce number of exch calls in shap_filt (s2).
310    o CS-grid: fix divergence contribution to Leith viscosity. Affects (@
311      truncation level) 4/5 MLAdjust test results (11&12 digits match).
312    
313    checkpoint57t_post
314    o test biharmonic viscosity + no-slip with exp: global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
315    o finish adding brackets (coriolis S/R, vecinv) in multi-terms sum to get
316      same truncation, independent of the face number: affects affects several
317      test. exp.: Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
318    o fix bug in mom_v_sidedrag (biharmonic viscosity was counted 2 times);
319      note that biharmonic viscosity + no-slip was not tested in any experiment.
320    o fix bug in non-linear free-surf side-drag ; generate new output for
321      global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & global_ocean_pressure.
322    o make mnc honor the writeBinaryPrec flag for most kinds of output
323    o eesupp: split EEPARAMS into EESIZE/EEPARAMS and add a vector global sum
324    o minor change in averaging W (mom_vi_?_vertshear.F) that affects truncation
325      error; update output from global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
326    o add brackets in multi-terms sum to get same truncation, independent of
327      the face number (manage to get exactly same value of gU,gV at the cs-edge)
328      affects several test. exp. Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice).
329    o Clean, new version of mom_calc_visc.  Adds a new feature, viscAhRemax
330      and viscA4Remax, which allow one to limit the minimum viscosity by specifying
331      a maximum grid-scale Reynolds number.  Also, changes all length calculations
332      in the case of grid anisotropy to geometric mean of dx**2 and dy**2.
333      Suggested values of viscosity parameters found in mom_calc_visc.
334      Many new viscosity diagnostics available.
335    
336    checkpoint57s_post
337    o Add clearing-house for viscosity calculations, mom_calc_visc and
338      correct numerous bugs in LeithD and Smagorinsky discretizations.  
339      mom_calc_visc now allows for Smagorinsky, Leith and LeithD to be
340      used simultaneously, and to be used in mom_vecinv and mom_fluxform.
341      Mom_vecinv can be used with standard viscous calculation (mom_vi_hdissip.F)
342      and with Strain-Tension viscous term calculation (mom_hdissip.F).  
343      The Strain-Tension form is now called with useStrainTensonVisc=.true.
344      ViscAhStrain and viscAhTension are now retired.
345    o diagnostics "VISCAHD" & "VISCA4D" replace "VISCAH" & "VISCA4".
346    o In response to JMC's bug report, genmake2 now ignores any soft-links
347      that it finds in the *current* directory when searching for files.
348      Soft-links found in any other source directories will still work as
349      they did before.
350    o add HAVE_SETRLSTK define and useSETRLSTK flag (eedata) which calls
351      a C routine to unlimit the stack size
352    o mnc-ify pkg/aim snapshot vars
353    o mnc-ify pkg/land as requested by Daniel
354    o various changes to mnc including:
355      - all files use the new "BASENAME[[.ITER].{t|f}NUM].nc" format
356      - output can now be grouped so that all files within a group
357          change the ITER portion of their names in lock-step together
358      - can now read ("global") PER-FACE (in addition to PER-TILE) files
359          and works with both EXCH1 and EXCH2 (but needs more testing)
360      - writing works for all verification test cases w/ g77 on Linux
361    
362    checkpoint57r_post
363    o make MNC variable initialization happen earlier
364    o add diagnostics for (almost) each term of the momentum Eq.
365    o remove SST,SSS,UVEL_k2,VVEL_k2 diagnostics.
366    o move pkg timeave out of pkg-groups "oceanic" & "atmospheric" (pkg/pkg_groups)
367    o remove MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT option ;
368      add "dumpInitAndLast" to replace "nodumps" (and MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT).
369    o move some basic S/R (used elsewhere in the code) from pkg/mdsio to eesupp/src
370      allows to compile without pkg/mdsio (& test successfully hs94.1x64x5)
371    o add MNC output for adjoint of EXF (adexf), SEAICE (adseaice)
372    o add time-dependent SST, SSS control
373    o cost terms in ecco/ modularized (new cost_generic.F)
374    o cost_averages routines are modularized (new cost_averagesgeneric.F)
375    o new infrastructure for seaice model vs. obs misfits in seaice/
376      * driver from the_main_loop.F is seaice_cost_driver.F
377      * first term is AREA vs. SMR observation misfit (ALLOW_SEAICE_COST_SMR_AREA)
378      * gradient check in Exp. 6a of natl_box_adjoint/
379    o natl_box_adjoint input_seaice for Lab. Sea now available online via wget
380      (see README file)
381    
382    checkpoint57q_post
383    o fix initialisation Pb in calc_gw (get NANs in exp5 with g77)
384    o fix annoying months-old bug in mnc/mdsio output for seaice pkg
385      - bug was reported by Jean-Michel and Ian Fenty
386    o fix initialization Pb in AIM-Ocean coupled model (aim_sice2aim.F)
387      update exp. cpl_aim+ocn output.
388    o Implement 4-level checkpointing: AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
389      Needed for high-res. runs with large global files
390      to be able to limit tapelev size
391    o Changed some tests for adjoint:
392      * carbon/ now tests AUTODIFF_2_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
393      * natl_box_adjoint/code_bulk/ tests AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
394      * global_ocean.90x40x15/ back to default 3-level checkpointing
395    o Modifications to enable scripted COMMON to MODULE conversion
396      * verification/OpenAD/code/ has necessary scripts and description;
397      * converts, compiles and runs successfully;
398    
399    checkpoint57p_post
400    o reading of delXfile & delYfile moved from ini_parms.F to ini_grid.F
401    o move ${PKG}_MNC_INIT from ${PKG}_READ_PARAMS to ${PKG}_INIT_FIXED
402      (already the case for some pkgs, including recent MNC_init, e.g. thsice)
403    o call CALC_GW from DYNAMICS (instead of from FORWARD_STEP)
404    o Dissipation & phiHyd gradient are always added to gU,gV in timestep.F
405      (was already the case for dissipation with mom_vecinv,
406       and also the case for grad.PhiHyd when staggered-timeStep)
407      This will allow to put dissipation out-off the AB time-stepping.
408     Unfortunately, affects truncation error. Update output of exp. that "fails"
409      (cg2d matching number) and leave the others for later: front_relax(10),
410      global_ocean_pressure(10),ideal_2D_oce(10),internal_wave(9),lab_sea(12),
411      matrix_example(7!),natl_box(12),plume_on_slope(11),vermix(12x3,11x2).
412    
413    checkpoint57o_post
414    o fix MNC/MDSIO flags in PTRACERS so that (1) it works, and
415      (2) its ready to be documented during the 20050801 DocFest
416    o MNC-ify the gmredi package -- tested and works w/ and w/o mnc
417      for ideal_2D_oce and lab_sea on linux_ia32_g77
418    o set to #undef CTRL_SET_OLD_MAXCVARS_30
419      in global1x1_tot/code_seaice_adj to access indices 32, 33
420      (worth another tag)
421    
422    checkpoint57n_post
423    o adding precip control xx_precip 32
424    o adding swflux control xx_swflux 33
425    o Replacing 10 forcing penalty cost routines by 1 generic.
426    o Implementing partitioning in time-mean and variable adjustment
427      for atmos. state.
428    o Time-mean constant error is now read in data.ecco (instead of hard-coded)
429    o in natl_box_adjoint:
430      * updated exp 1 to 10
431        (but does not have time-mean vs. variable split results yet)
432    o updated global1x1/*_seaice_adj/
433      to incorporate latest changes
434    o enable useSingleCpuIO for mdsio vector routines
435      (applies in particular to tapelev I/O)
436    o removed inefficient K-loop in all active_file*control*.F
437    
438    checkpoint57m_post
439    o re-arrange exp. adjustment.cs-32x32x1 (adjust_nlfs.cs-32x32x1 merge into)
440      and advect_cs (use EXCH-2 and standard cs-32 grid files).
441    o pkg/exch2: filling of face-corner halo regions is optional
442      (ifdef W2_FILL_NULL_REGIONS) and is turned off by default.
443    
444    checkpoint57l_post
445     tag before updating tutorials (pre-release-2)
446    o add cos & sin of grid-direction orientation angle (curvilinear grid only,
447       for output and interpolation of input fields onto model grid)
448    o fix radius in mom_v_metric_cylinder.F (wrong by dy/2).
449       Affects results of exp. rotating_tank ; update output.txt.
450    o pkg/diagnostics: 2 new S/R to fill a diagnostics using a scaling factor
451          and taking the square quantity and/or using a fraction-weight field.
452    o fix aim_diagnostics_init.F mate numbers.
453    o add mnc output capability to diagnostics/diagstat and update
454      our cvsignore files for the ACSII output generated
455    
456    checkpoint57k_post
457    o lab_sea now uses diagnostics package and provides a suite of
458      new EXF diagnostics output.
459    
460    checkpoint57j_post
461    o exf
462      * bug fix in exf_bulkformulae for psimh (spotted by Eliyahu Biton):
463        Bracket missing in eqn. for psimh (eqn. 7 of Large & Pond, 1982);
464        terms -2*ATAN(x) + pi/2 were added to both stable and unstable case.
465      * extended diagnostics output
466        - now includes all EXF variables
467        - hs, hl moved to common block
468        - separate S/R for diagnostics, called after ctrl vector is added
469        - name changed for EXFsw -> EXFswnet, EXFlw -> EXFlwnet
470        - EXFqnet contains true Qnet (i.e. includes qsw)
471      * updated verif. lab_sea, global_with_exf
472      * Rearranging hflux (exf_mapfields -> exf_getforcing)
473        to ensure that diagnostics sees a true EXFqnet
474    o add matlab scripts for CS-grid vectors (in utils/cs_grid)
475    o diagnostics pkg: change pointers so that 1 diagnostic can be used
476      several times with different frequencies.
477    o mnc-ify the thsice package as requested by Daniel Enderton
478      - the monitor--MNC output needs work
479      - many attributes need to be added (most are currently blank)
480    o mnc-ify theaim_v23 package as requested by Daniel Enderton
481      - many attributes need to be added (most are currently blank)
482    o remove "groundAtK1" & "rkFac" (replaced by usingPCoords & -rkSign)
483    o add Sadourny like discretization to the 4th.O vorticity advection scheme
484    o fix bug in rStar code (calc_r_star.F) when used with topo/bathy.
485      update output.txt from: aim.5l_cs (& .thSI), cpl_aim+ocn,
486         fizhi-gridalt-hs and global_ocean.cs32x15 (& .thsice).
487    o fix few little things to avoid floating error with -ftrapuv (ifort v9)
488     (ini_spherical_polar_grid.F, calc_r_star.F, monitor/mon_surfcor.F)
489    
490    checkpoint57i_post
491    o Diagnostics package was changed: diagnostic allocation is now deactivated
492      by setting an empty file name in the namelist (used to be by setting 0 frequency)
493    o momentum advection (VI form) options: activate 4th.O vorticity Coriolis ;
494      add 1rst Order upwind vertical Shear.
495    o add a quick fix for A/B checkpointing in OFFLINE mode
496    o add IGNORE_TIME define and -ignore_time option to genmake2 as an
497      end-run around the C/Fortran linking horror in eesup/src/timers.F
498    o added pkg/runclock: allows user to terminate run based on wall clock
499    o added non-hydrostatic scaling parameter: nh_am2
500    o pkg/my82: futile attempt to make results compiler-independent by adding
501      some "_d 0", etc. no effect.
502    o for mnc output, fill the 'T' coordinate var with myTime and create a
503      separate 'iter' variable for iteration count
504    o pkg/diagnostics:
505      add new capability: output of Global/Regional & per-level statistics ;
506      tested against monitor output (including land & thSIce) on various exp.
507    o make seaice-pkg I/O type flags (MNC/MDS) more standard.
508    
509    checkpoint57h_done
510      tag after changing user customized files (DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h,
511      data.diagnostics, data.gchem, data.ptracers) is done.
512    
513    o pkg/diagnostics: prepare for Global/Regional statistics.
514      add 2nd namelist in data.diagnostics and update DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h
515    o remove "baseTime" (no used) from arg. list of DIFF_BASE_MULTIPLE
516      and rename it: DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE
517    
518    checkpoint57h_post
519    o move tIter0 from data.gchem to PTRACERS_Iter0 in data.ptracers
520    o pkg/diagnostics: change output frequency, now in seconds (instead
521      of Nb of iterations). This requires to change data.diagnostics.
522    checkpoint57h_pre
523    
524    o in mnc, let the user create the output dir if both mnc_outdir_date
525      and mnc_outdir_num are false
526    o add fflags() to pkg/diagnostics which allows one to specify, on a
527      per-file basis, the file precision [default behavior is unchanged]
528    o added diagnostics to pkg/kpp, including computation of mixed layer
529      depth based on a temperature/density criterion
530    o updated verification/natl_box to test the new pkg/kpp diagnostics
531    o bugs fixed (with useAbsVorticity=T & with useJamartMomAdv=T)
532    o test AB-3 code with 4th.Order advection scheme (advect_xy/input.ab3_c4)
533    o fix mnc flags in pkg/seaice so that they are "owned" by seaice,
534      not mnc -- this mistake was found by JMC and is now corrected
535    
536    checkpoint57g_post
537    o add Adams-Bashforth 3rd Order time stepping:
538      - default remains AB-2 (#undef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3)
539      - not yet implemented with NH, CD_Scheme, pTracers, MNC_pickup ...
540    checkpoint57g_pre
541    
542    o make lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax spatially varying
543      (default remains spatially uniform constant based on tau)
544    o added new control variables
545      * init. uVel, vVel, etanN
546      * lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax
547    o separate masks used for ctrl_pack/unpack 'from write_grid' output
548      (suggested by G. Forget)
549    
550    checkpoint57f_post
551    o add parameter "baseTime" = model base time = time at iteration zero
552      new function DIFF_BASE_MULTIPLE (replace DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE) to
553      account for baseTime shift
554    o move Coriolis arrays from PARAMS.h to GRID.h
555    checkpoint57f_pre
556    
557    o mnc-ifying the seaice package
558    o introduced an alternative length scale calculation for use in the limiting
559      maximum viscosity (off by default, see mom_vi_hdissip.F for details)
560    o S/R ptracers_calc_diff: argument list bug for CALL KPP_CALC_DIFF_S
561    o added modified Leith scheme with viscosity proportional to grad(Hdiv)
562      as well as grad(vort3).  Made it compatible with both approximate form
563      for the cubed sphere and full form of these gradients.  Added flag
564      useFullLeith to select between approximate and full form.  
565    o add "d0" in getcon.F to reduce differences between compilers/platforms
566      update output.txt of exp. fizhi-gridalt-hs
567    o change port_rand funtion to allow to set the seed.
568    o fix obscure MNC bug involving conversion between reals and integers
569      - it caused no problems with certain (eg. gcc, ifc) compilers but the
570        new version is now more standards-compliant
571    o adjoint-related modifications
572      * gad_dst3_adv_?: to be able to use advscheme=30 in adjoint
573      * gad_calc_rhs: fool adjoint, revert to advscheme=30 in reverse when using 33
574      * mom_vi_hdissip: to be able to use Leith scheme in adjoint
575    
576    checkpoint57e_post
577    o Adding eddy stress controls a la Ferreira et al.
578    checkpoint57e_pre (actually was tagged: eckpoint57e_pre)
579    
580    o fizhi pkg: fix AtoC and CtoA when called with same input & output array
581      update output.txt of exp. fizhi-gridalt-hs
582    o add more "Z" dimensions and associated coordinate vars to MNC
583    o pkg/exf: added twoDigitYear capability for option useExfYearlyFields
584    o parameter calendarDumps: when set, approximate months (30-31 days) and years
585      (360-372 days) for parameters chkPtFreq, pChkPtFreq, taveFreq, SEAICE_taveFreq,
586      KPP_taveFreq, and freq in pkg/diagnostics are converted to exact calendar
587      months and years.  Requires pkg/cal.
588    o diagnostics: add pickup functionality
589      - off by default for backwards compatibility
590      - current version only uses MDSIO -- MNC will be added
591    o allow to use pkg diagnostics for LAND pkg output & Shapiro Tendencies.
592    o pkg/shap_filt: fix for multi-tiles per face (CS-grid with EXCH2)
593    
594    checkpoint57d_post
595    o pkg/thsice used in the ocean: fix tile Pb related to sIceLoad forcing
596    o modify verification/ideal_2D_oce so that it tests the creation of mnc
597      output from the diagnostics package
598    o temporary fix in EXCH2_UV: add a 3rd call to fix the 24.tiles CS-grid set-up
599    o make genmake2 more portable by using ".$FS" instead of ".f" for more
600      of the test compilations (eg. IBM xlf on Mac OSX w/HFS filesys)
601    o add coordinate variables to the MNC output from the diagnostics package
602    o change MNC-flags default value: true when useMNC=TRUE
603    o add a "readgrid_mnc" flag to MNC and give model/src/ini_curvilinear_grid.F
604      the ability (off by default) to read the grid information using MNC
605    o lab_sea: use LSR_ERROR=1.E-12 for testing ; update output.txt
606    o diagnostics: fix a bug (sub-set of levels); keep full precision when averaging
607    o do snap-shot diagnostics at the middle of the time-interval (instead of
608      at the end).
609    o update exp. aim.5l_cs (use default LAND_OPTIONS.h file) and add
610      new test for AIM with thSIce + slab-ocean
611    o cpl_aim+ocn test: update output (optfile & default GMREDI_OPTIONS.h)
612    o move state variable diagnostics to the beginning of the time step ;
613      (note: still needs some work specially for snap-shot diagnostics)
614      duplicate & replace UVELVVEL diagnostics with UV_VEL_C & UV_VEL_Z
615    
616    checkpoint57c_post
617    o Change testing option (-ieee) to get closer agreement between g77 & ifort
618    o generate new output.txt files on faulks with g77 & the new -ieee option
619    checkpoint57c_pre
620    
621    o add "_d 0" in freeze ; change some "FLOAT" to "DFLOAT" and went back (TAF);
622      update output.txt of exp. global_ocean.90x40x15
623    o fix in ini_eos.F (one "_d 0" was missing): now g77 & ifc give much closer
624      results; update global_ocean_pressure & global_ocean.cs32x15 output.txt
625    o add saltFlux(+File) forcing capability with periodicExternalForcing
626    o allow to use pkg diagnostics for GM-Redi & ThSIce output
627    o diagnostics_fill: fill in up to sNx+1 or sNy+1 (if U,V or Z pt) for mnc.
628    o improvements for the MNC output from DIAGNOSTICS:
629      - correct handling of the unlimitied dimension
630      - all dims now have associated coordinate variables
631      - variables located at U, V, and Corner ("Z") points are now written
632        with the correct horzontal dimensions (eg. 'Xp1', 'Yp1') so that
633        *all* data points are output
634    o added seaice_summary.F and removed obsolete ALLOW_SEAICE's from pkg/seaice
635    o added pkg/seaice/seaice_monitor.F
636    o mdsio_readfield.F can now read files visible only to master MPI process.
637    o pkg/seaice: some test code for ice-modified ocean stress
638    o exf_getffields interpolation defaults to bilinear for all scalar forcing
639      fields (remains bicubic for wind velocity and stress).  This avoids, e.g.,
640      spurious negative numbers for precipitation and humidity.  Will cause
641      some small numerical differences for integrations using pkg/exf/exf_interp.F.
642    o pkg/ctrl/
643      * Add ctrlvec diagnostics in pack/unpack for nondimensional I/O
644        May be enabled via doPackDiag
645      *  introduce z-scaling of
646         + gradient (doZscalePack) and
647         + control (doZscaleUnpack)
648    o pkg/mdsio/
649      * enable useSingleCpuIO for state estimation (ctrl_pack/unpack) mdsio_gl.F
650      * N.B.: leave tiled I/O for tapelev (i.e. mds...vector)
651    
652    checkpoint57b_post
653    o simplify options in diagnostics_fill arguments (remove weird combinations)
654    o fix MNC coordinate variables so that they now contain per-face index
655      values (instead of xC,xG,yC,yG values) when run with EXCH2 since, in
656      general, EXCH2 grids are only aligned to a "local" coordinate system
657    o test diagnostics pkg in dic_example (no output) and ideal_2D_oce (with ouput)
658    o Implement instantaneous output within pkg diagnostics:
659      setting a negative frequency in data.diagnostics produces
660     "snap-shot" output (as opposed to time-average if freq > 0)
661    o move out off EQUIVALENCE all diagnostics that fizhi does not use ;
662      NOTE: change ptracer diagnostics name: use 2 characters to work with
663            more than 9 tracers. Add also diagnostics of advect & diffus flux.
664    o more CF compliance: convert all MNC 'iter' variables to 'T' so that it
665      becomes the coordinate variable for the 'T' dimension
666    o add CF-style coordinate variables to MNC
667      - just a first cut:  numbers are meaningless on the cubesphere and
668        missing along the T axis but otherwise it works!
669    o add surface flux diagnostics: TAUX, TAUY, TFLUX, TRELAX, TICE, SFLUX, SRELAX
670    o pkg/thSIce: read initial state from 6 files ; allow monitor to use MNC.
671    o add diagnostics of advective & diffusive flux for T & S (pTracers coming soon)
672      this is based directly on what the model compute, so that the content of
673      each diagnostics might be affected by switching options (e.g., implicitDiffusion)
674    o small changes for diagnostics (gad_biharm_?.F, arguments of S/R impldiff.F)
675    o clean up build options files for SunOS, in particular
676      - remove -traditional from xmakedepend
677      - change -xarch=v9 to -xarch=native for f77
678      - restore use of make (not gmake)
679      - add CC=gcc if using g77
680    o changes per discussion of AM, JMC, & EH3 today:
681      - move redundant "grid" variables out of "state" -- in preparation of
682        creating proper CF-style coordinate variables and in recognition
683        that any/all grid variables can be easily copied (eg. w/NCO) from
684        the grid files into any of the other NetCDF files
685      - *always* output grid variables with MDSIO (this will eventually be
686        changed)
687      - output MNC grid file if useMNC is true
688    o every instance of _END_MASTER() has been found and replaced with
689      _END_MASTER( myThid ) in order to satisfy certain picky Sun
690      preprocessors
691    o re-arrange diagnostics pkg initialisation:
692     - allow each package to extend the available diagnostics list
693     - add some checking and fix small problems (multi-threaded, ...)
694     - new S/R diagnostics_fill (replace fill_diagnostics):
695       look through the short list of active diag. (instead of the long list)
696       create function DIAGNOSTICS_IS_ON to tell if a diagnostics is active
697    
698    checkpoint57a_post
699    o this set of changes restores TAMC compatibility
700      tested for global_ocean.90x40x15 adjoint on trough
701      (what a pain)
702    
703    checkpoint57a_pre
704    o some modifs in tools/build_options for sunos
705    o call ctrl_pack for ctrl at end for optimcycle=0
706    
707    checkpoint57
708    o add horizontal bi-harmonic viscosity for vertical velocity
709      - new parameter viscA4W (defaults to viscA4)
710      - affects only non-hydrostatic code
711      - to be done: no-slip lateral boundary conditions
712    o switch back to "sflux = sflux - runoff" in exf_getforcing.F
713    o implement Implicit Vertical advection for pTracers
714    o depth convergence accelerator: replace deltaTtracer by dTtracerLev(k)
715      (implemented also for implicit vertical diffusion & advection)
716    o OBCS: extend application of tracer open boundary conditions
717      to a strip beyond the boundary of width Olx/Oly
718    o add call monitor to TAF set of required calls (flow directives)
719      and include in natl_box_adjoint
720    o untangle a few ifdefs related to cost, ctrl, autodiff
721      untangel a few ALLOW_ECCO_OPTIMIZATION
722    o Apply Cooper & Haines representative estimates also at sub-surface (k=Nr)
723      (theta2, salt2 in ecco_cost_weights)
724    
725    checkpoint56c_post
726    o OBCS as control variables
727      - update ctrl_ad_diff.list, obcs_ad_diff.list
728      - remove balance of obcs controls from default
729      - fix index bug nobcs in ctrl_init
730      - fix dummy fields filen in ctrl_pack
731      - add dummy weights for obcs
732    o lsopt: comment out fort.94 output
733    o optim:
734      - remove unnecessary header files
735      - adjusted namelists
736      - add xerbla.F to Makefile
737    o exf:
738      - multiple modifications of exf_check_range
739      - unit change in exf_init_runoff from [m/year] to [m/s]
740    o mdsio:
741      - i/o-vector change debugLevel from debLevA to debLevB
742    
743    checkpoint56b_post
744    o collect all ptracers output in an new routine (PTRACERS_OUTPUT) that
745      is called from DO_THE_MODEL_IO
746      - rename PTRACERS_STATV_WRITE to PTRACERS_WRITE_TIMEAVE
747      - introduce new parameter PTRACERS_dumpFreq (defaults to dumpFreq)
748      - clean up PTRACERS_WRITE_TIMEAVE a little
749    o add another verification experiment that tests both the cfc-pkg and
750      the gchem-pkg with GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING undefined, that is with
751      reactive tendencies treated inline with regular timestepping
752    o testreport previously did a lousy job of comparing small numbers, so
753      we (Ed and Martin) changed the  way the cut-off of 1.e-12 is
754      implemented in the little c-progam tmp_cmpnum.c which is embedded in
755      testreport.
756    o ptracers_monitor: bug fix for MPI
757    
758    checkpoint56a_post
759    o GCHEM: finish reorganizating the package
760      - forward_step calls GCHEM_CALC_TENDENDY, which computes gchemTendency
761        (introduces another 3D-array for each passive tracer, but only if
762        GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING is undefined. For GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING
763        gchemTendency is not needed because the timestep is done separately)
764      - gchemTendency is added to gPtr in GCHEM_ADD_TENDENCY
765      - GCHEM is now---more or less cleanly---separate from PTRACERS
766      - to bo done: handling of surfaceForcingPtr that is needed for KPP not
767        so clear to me how that should be done in a general way.
768    o CFC: improve formatting of output in CFC_ATMOS
769    o PTRACERS:
770      - rename GCHEM_MONITOR to PTRACERS_MONITOR and call it from MONITOR, so
771        that ALL experiments with ptracers enable can be checked. This makes
772        GCHEM_MONITOR obsolete.
773      - include a runtime parameter PTRACERS_monitorFreq that defaults to
774        monitorFreq
775      - set default PTRACERS_write_mdsio to false if PTRACERS_write_mnc is true
776    o add PTRACERS (PTR0[1-5]) to testreport output
777    o exf_check_range:
778      * default changed to .TRUE.
779      * will check values for niter0 if debLevA, every timestep if debLevB
780      * STOP in exf_check_range if 'out of range'
781      * range chosen generous to allow for potential extema
782      TBD: a version with stricter range
783           permitted range would be runtime parameters
784  o GMredi:  o GMredi:
785    - fix ldd97 slope limit ; extend valid domain of Psi-Bolus ;    - fix ldd97 slope limit ; extend valid domain of Psi-Bolus ;
786    - 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.

792      - renamed PTRACERS_SEPARATE_FORCING to GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING;
793        this flag is now only visible within GCHEM-pkg routines.
794      - moved gchem_forcing_int temporarily into ptracers_forcing, this will
795        be replaced by a 3D array that is computed before thermodynamics; for
796        this, the tracer ID iTracer had to be included into the parameter list
797        of ptracers_forcing
798      - set up forward_step to call gchem_forcing, that will replace
799        gchem_forcing_int in ptracers_forcing
800      - cleaning up
