5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    checkpoint58j_post
8    o new driver S/R: LOAD_FIELDS_DRIVER to load external forcing fields
9      from file (collects calls previously in FORWARD_STEP)
10    o move call to SEAICE_MODEL from FORWARD_STEP to DO_OCEANIC_PHYS
11    o adjoint store dir. adjusted accordingly
12    o genmake2
13      replace target "ad_taf" by $(EXE_AD) ; add $(EXE_AD) to the make CLEAN list.
14    
15    checkpoint58i_post
16    o pkg/seaice: add parameter that allows to scale/turn off effect of seaice
17      on wind stress (SEAICEstressFactor defaults to 1.)
18    o Total number of Timers is finite (<=40): comment out 2 non-essential one
19      in the_main_loop.F to avoid Pb (e.g., when running fizhi test)
20    o vector_invariant: fix highOrderVorticity(=4.th.Order) advection
21      on CS-grid: no longer loosing mass.
22    o exf & curvilinear-grid: no longer modify longitude xC & xG.
23    o pkg/ggl90: fix sloppy output and fix a bug
24    o pkg/seaice: added SEAICEuseEVPpickup parameter
25      - Set to false in order to start EVP solver with
26        non-EVP pickup files when using SEAICEuseEVP
27      - fix sign error in diffusion in seaice_calc_rhs
28    
29    checkpoint58h_post
30    * Modifications for bottom topography control
31      o replace hFacC by _hFacC at various places
32      o replace ALLOW_HFACC_CONTROL by ALLOW_DEPTH_CONTROL
33      o add non-self-adjoint cg2d_nsa
34      o update autodiff support routines
35      o re-initialise hfac after ctrl_depth_ini
36      o works for 5x5 box, doesnt work for global_ocean.90x40x15
37    * Adding verification for 5x5 box (4-layer) bottom topography control
38    
39    checkpoint58g_post
40    o pkg/diagnostics: implement "periodic averaging diagnostics" (e.g.,
41       used for mean seasonal cycle, mean diurnal cycle); add an example
42       in verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.thsice/data.diagnostics
43    o pkg/ggl90:
44      - add parameter (minimum surface kinetic energy)
45      - fix bug (avoiding division by zero)
46    o couple pkg/thsice to pkg/seaice:
47      - modify advection in seaice to accomodate new scalar fields to be advected
48      - only muliDimAdection scheme work with seaice/thsice
49      - mapping of thsice-variables to seaice-variables, back and forth
50      - does not break the verification experiments, but does not give the
51        desired results either
52    o pkg/seaice
53      - make (default) second order advection a bit less confusing?
54    
55    checkpoint58f_post
56    o couple pkg/thsice and pkg/exf (as a preparation for coupling pkg/thsice
57      to pkg/seaice):
58      - new routines thsice_map_exf and thsice_get_exf provide the interface
59      - add an additional formal parameter to thsice_solve4temp
60    o pkg/exf:
61      - add new fields wspeed, snowprecip (to be able to couple to thsice)
62      - correct Stefan-Boltzmann constant
63      - new parameter for longwave surface emittance
64      - separate some stuff from exf_bulkformulae into new routines  
65        exf_radiation, exf_wind
66      - add new parameters and constants: longwave emissivity for ocean, ice
67        and snow, evaporation parameters over ice
68      - decouple wind/stress computation from ALLOW_BULKFORMULA: always compute
69        either wind from stress or stress from wind
70    o pkg/thSIce:
71    - split thsice_step_fwd.F in 2 S/R: thsice_step_temp.F & thsice_step_fwd.F
72    - put i,j loops inside S/R: THSICE_ALBEDO, THSICE_SOLVE4TEMP, THSICE_EXTEND
73       and THSICE_CALC_THICKN
74    - for now, call to THSICE_GET_BULKF remains inside i,j loops.
75    - add CPP option: ALLOW_DBUG_THSICE and header file THSICE_DEBUG.h
76      to make debugging easier.
77    - affects results (@ truncation level) of global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice: update output
78    o pkg/bulk_force:
79      - clean-up comments and parameters ;
80      - add new Bulk-Formulae from Large and Yeager, 2004, NCAR/TN-460+STR ;
81    o fix bug in aim+thsice albedo: snow & ice thickness arguments were switched;
82      generate new output for test-experiment: aim.5l_cs.thSI
83    o results_ad : rename "output.txt_adm" to "output_adm.txt" and change
84      testreport accordingly
85    
86    checkpoint58e_post
87    o SEAICE_CGRID adjoint done
88    o R_STAR adjoint implemented.
89      * Seems to just work (based on global_ocean.90x40x15/code_ad_nlfs/ )
90      * need to sort out init. of h0facc, etc.
91    o Make pkg/profile fully independent of ecco,cost, etc. stuff
92      to be able to use it in pure forward.
93    
94    checkpoint58d_post
95    o upgrade simple test-experiment to tutorial example:
96     step.1: duplicate the experiment and (step.2) will remove the old copy.
97      tutorial_barotropic_gyre      <- copy of exp0     (R1:barotropic_gyre_in_a_box)
98      tutorial_baroclinic_gyre      <- copy of exp1     (R1:baroclinic_gyre_on_a_sphere)
99      tutorial_global_oce_latlon    <- empty for now    (R1:global_ocean_circulation)
100      tutorial_global_oce_biogeo    <- copy of dic_example
101      tutorial_deep_convection      <- almost like exp5 (R1:nonhydrostatic_deep_convection)
102      tutorial_plume_on_slope       <- copy of plume_on_slope
103      tutorial_tracer_adjsens       <- copy of carbon   (R1:tracer_adjoint_sensitivity)
104      tutorial_global_oce_optim     <- empty for now (David ?)
105      tutorial_global_oce_in_p      <- copy of global_ocean_pressure
106     some tutorials (R1) were already checked-in under tutorial_examples in release1_branch
107    o correct a sign problem in cost_scat.F
108    o obcs and ptracers: fix boundary conditions for advections schemes
109      with larger stencil
110    o thsice adjoint: start
111    o mom_vecinv: add ISOTROPIC_COS_SCALING flags to mom_vi_hdissip for
112      completeness
113    o mom_fluxform: fixing the mutual use of ISOTROPIC_COS_SCALING
114      and COSINEMETH_III, add comments in default CPP_OPTIONS.h
115    o ptracers adjoint:
116      * avoid extensive recomputatations
117      * fix missing re-init. of gptr (missed by TAF)
118    o obcs: add a flag (OBCSprintDiags, defaults is true) that allows
119      me to turn off the excessive output to STDOUT that this package produces
120    o move NH metric terms & 3.D Coriolis S/R to pkg/mom_common
121      and add those terms in Vector-Invariant formulation.
122    o in ctrl pkg, if ALLOW_CAL, use monthly mean controls
123      if the control period (xx_hfluxperiod etc) is 0
124    o in profiles pkg, clean routines and fix details
125    o in ecco pkg, reading ssh data:
126      fix problem in case the model does not start at iter0=0
127    o fix mnc-pickup/restart for ptracers
128    o new package prifiles:
129      code to compute profile-based cost by Gael Forget
130      (modifs in ecco, ctrl, autodiff)
131    o Benign bug fix in initialization (spotted by M. Mazloff) of
132      ctrl_set_globfld_xz.F ctrl_set_globfld_yz.F
133    
134    checkpoint58c_post
135    o adjoint: finish NLFS adjoint and provide reference output in
136      verification/global_ocean.90x40x15/results_ad_nlfs
137    o seaice: add an EVP solver following Hunke and Dukowicz (1997) and the
138      documentation of CICE. Turn on by defining SEAICE_ALLOW_EVP in
139      SEAICE_OPTIONS.h and SEAICEuseEVP=.true. in data.seaice. Works only
140      with SEAICE_CGRID defined.
141    o move calendarDumps from "data" to "data.cal" and clean-up the code
142      with a simple call to pkg/cal S/R: CAL_TIME2WRITE
143    o add useEXF & useCAL flags (for now, set in hard-coded way)
144    o add S/R to compute NH-metrics terms & Coriolis f' in vertical momentum
145      (were missing in NH mode, and wrong in quasihydrostatic mode).
146      waiting for Chris updated version of calc_gw to add those CALLs.
147    o fix bug in quasihydrostatic S/R ;
148      add a test for this option: global_ocean.90x40x15.qshyd
149    o new S/R "SET_PARMS": set parameters that might depend on the use of some pkgs.
150      (called from INITIALISE_FIXED, after INI_PARMS & PACKAGES_READPARAMS)
151    o add on/off flag useOffLine for package OFFLINE
152    o seaice:
153      - modify advection so that it works also on the C-grid
154      - extend loop ranges in seaice_lsr and seaice_dynsolver; fixes
155        problem in multi-tile runs with C-grid
156      - add flags for clipping ice velocities and/or masking solver forcing
157      - fix drag (ocean on ice) formulation and a bug that caused noise in the
158        C-grid solver
159      - added a few comments to seaice_diffusion.F
160      - separate C-grid and B-grid versions more cleanly (UVM and seaiceMaskU/V
161        are now exclusive)
162      - add a new ocean-ice stress coupling method (Hibler and Bryan, 1987) which
163        required re-ordering the code a little:
164       + make DAIRN global variable (defined in SEAICE)
165       + move computation of the viscosities eta and zeta into a new separate
166         routine (because I need to recompute them in seaice_ocean_stress.F)
167    
168    checkpoint58b_post
169    o AIM+thSIce: fix sign of Short-Wave through the Ice ;
170      update output.txt of exp. aim.5l_cs.thSI
171    o various mnc cleanups and improvements:
172      + shrink lookup tables by factor of ~4
173      + better error reporting when running out of lookup space
174      + able to handle longer path/file names (up to 500 chars)
175    o adjoint:
176      - Another overhaul of store dirs. for NLFS to eliminate  "hidden" recomputations.
177      - TBD: "hidden" mom_vecinv recomp. in dynamics
178    o change forcing_In_AB to affects both T,S forcing and Momentum forcing
179     (allow to differentiate between forcing components using new integer flags:
180      momForcingOutAB=1/0 & tracForcingOutAB=1/0)
181     and add new flag to put Dissipation tendency out of Adams-Bashforth.
182    o ecco
183      - enable trend removal from SSH anomaly obs.
184    o adjoint
185      - a fix for PmEpR when #undef EXACT_CONSERV
186      - fix of "hidden" recomp. in thermodynamics (no TAF warnings)
187      - try to fix "hidden" recomp. in forward_step for NLFS
188        (NLFS seems broken sometimes after I checked it in)
189    o seaice:
190     - add c-grid version of the dynamic solver:
191       + three new routines that are the c-grid substitute lsr, dynsolver
192         and ostres
193       + put a few fields that were local to dynsolver into global common
194         blocks, so that I can move the computation of stresses etc into
195         seaice_lsr (saves coding but may break the adjoint).
196     - replace more hardwired parameters by runtime parameters
197     - add ice masks that mask the rhs of the implicit solvers where there
198       is no ice (commented out in seaice_dynsolver, because i am not sure
199       if this works properly), eventually this should replace the clipping
200       of ice velocities in seaice_dynsolver to +/-40cm/s.
201    o remove the BUILD_INFO.h include from CPP_EEOPTIONS.h and explicitly
202      include it only where its needed
203    o move balancing of fluxes before the call of external_forcing_surf
204    o seaice:
205      - correct units of turning angles (now they are really in degrees)
206      - move computation of GWATX/Y out of main routine into dynsolver
207      - initialize GWATX/Y in seaice_init
208    o Apply mask on Fresh-Water flux (needed for SSH forcing).
209      update output.txt of exp. global_ocean_ebm & cpl_aim+ocn (affects cg2d residual)
210    o seaice: add runtime flags for turning angles (default to zero)
211    o Adding runtime parameter to exf/, ctrl/, to remove on-the-fly global mean
212      and trend from exf forcing and ctrl control adjustments
213    o fix variable aliasing in gad_calc_rhs that cannot be handled by TAF
214      (since checkpoint57x_post)
215    o change the default rotation period to 86164.s = the Earth rotation
216    o 1rst implementation of Implicit IGW using the 3-D solver (use3Dsolver=T)
217      and based on a reference stratification. Tested within hs94.cs-32x32x5.
218    o seaice advection: add code for choosing between the default (2nd order
219      central differences) and multiDim advection schemes provided by
220      pkg/generic_advdiff
221    o seaice:
222      - removed all references to SEAICE_GRID.h fields from
223        dynsolver, advect, diffus, lsr, without changing the results of lab_sea
224        (cubed-sphere configuration will change a little)
225      - grid computations in seaice_init are obsolete now.
226      - cleaned up code a little so that is easier to read (hopefully).
227      - added new (better?) discretizations of default advection and diffusion
228        (turn on with SEAICEuseFluxForm)
229      - replace 1 in 3d global fields by kSurface in growth.F
230      
231    checkpoint58a_post
232    o seaice:
233      - bug fix in advect.F
234    o shelfice:
235      - separate shelfice load anomaly from pload (breaks with time
236        dependent forcing), => introduce constant field shelficeLoadAnomaly.
237        Its default is 0., but it may be computed more cleverly from (unknown)
238        t- and s-profiles (tRef, sRef) and actual EOS. For now this has to be
239        done offline. A good approximation of the pressure load anomaly is
240        necessary to avoid large initial adjustment processes underneath
241        deep-reaching shelfice.
242      - small fix in ISOMIP shelfice_thermodynamics
243      - add more sophisticated thermodynamics of Hellmer (1989), this is
244        now the default
245      - give a few constants more intuitive names
246    o add code to balance EmPmP and Qnet at the end of do_ocean_physics. Useful
247      if bulk formulae are used in long integration (especially EmPmR). Turn
248      on with balanceEmPmR = .true. or balanceQnet = .true. in data, PARM01
249      if balancePrintMean, the imbalance that is substracted is printed to
250      STDOUT.
251    o fix bug (typo) in obcs_apply_eta.F
252    o add a new package shelfice which enables us to model the circulation
253      underneath shelf-ice with draughts of hundreds of meters.
254     - works
255     - to do: + include improved thermodynamics
256              + check whether kSurfC (from model/inc/SURFACE.h) can be used
257                instead of new field kTopC
258              + can we use topoFile, Ro_surf and existing code in ini_depth.F
259                instead of new field R_shelfIce and new code in ini_depth.F
260                and ini_mask_etc.F?
261              + adjust vertical mixing schemes?
262    o seaice pkg:
263     - add a cpp-flag to include a simple formula for a salinity dependent
264       freezing point of sea water at the surface
265     - change the contents of SEAICE_TEST_ICE_STRESS_1 so that zonal and
266       meridional stresses are now different (and hopefully correct)
267    o AIM pkg: change threshold on large-scale condensation to conserve Heat.
268       update results of aim.5l_LatLon test ; fix title & units of AIM diagnostics
269       and  change 3 diagnostics names (OSR,OSRCLR,KM -> TSR,TSRCLR,DRAG)
270    o pkg/diagnostics: add options and parameters for regional-statistics
271       diagnostics ; define regions by reading a region-mask from a file
272       (might add other options later)
273    o pkg/bulk_force:
274     - add option and parameters to use AIM surface-flux formulae.
275     - Change loading part: S/R BULKF_FIELDS_LOAD only take care of bulkf_fields ;
276       others forcing fields (defined in PARM05, parameter file "data") are loaded
277       from S/R EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD, as usually (with useBulkforce = T or F).
278     - initialise all bulkf_fields in bulkf_init.F ; do in-lining of exf_bulkcdn.F
279     - use the right EXCH call for uwind,vwind (to work on CS-grid).
280     - re-arrange header files (move parameters from BULKF.h to BULKF_PARAMS.h)
281       and parameters (note: calcWindStress replaces .NOT.readwindstress).
282     - cleaner interface with pkg/thSIce (new S/R THSICE_GET_PRECIP).
283    
284    checkpoint58
285    o add "--embed-source" option to genmake2 which, when the supporting
286      tools can be compiled (as determined by genmake2) will turn on the
287      embed_files package which then embeds the entire MITgcm source code
288      (*.[fFhc] + Makefile) used for the build within the executable
289      - requested by CNH but off by default
290      - adds a paltry <9MB to the mitgcmuv executable in most cases
291      - only writes the output when useEMBEDSRC in eedata is true
292    o clean up 3-dim. relaxation codes:
293      * Fix I/O inconsistency in pkg/rbcs: replace precFloat32 by readBinaryPrec
294      * Remove 3-dim. relaxation code from pkg/exf (now use only pkg/rbcs)
295      * Thanks to Tom Haine for testing!
296    
297    checkpoint57z_post
298    o make CG3D solver compatible with Free-surface at k > 1 (p-coordinate):
299      affects output (@ truncation level) of exp. plume_on_slope ; updated.
300    o fix the pickup behavior for obcs in combination with ptracers
301    o fix a bug in ptracers_external_fields_load
302    o no AB-2 at the first iteration for Gw (consistent with Gu,Gv,Gt,Gs ...)
303      affects results of NH experiments (but all our NH tests have Gw[it=1]==0 !!)
304    o transfered surface NH pressure to eta field (if exactConserv).
305    o gmredi: fix bugs in slope tapering ldd97 (depthZ had the wrong sign)
306         and update lab_sea output.txt file.
307    o completing 3-dim. relaxation code: additional term
308         1/tau*( theta(i,j,k) - thetaStar(i,j,k) )
309      in S/R EXTERNAL_FORCING_T (file external_forcing.F)
310      * At compile time, in "EXF_OPTIONS.h" set
311          #define  ALLOW_CLIMTEMP_RELAXATION
312          #define  ALLOW_CLIMSALT_RELAXATION
313      * At runtime in "data", under &PARM03 set (e.g., units in seconds)
314          tauThetaClimRelax3Dim = 15552000.0,
315          tauSaltClimRelax3Dim  = 15552000.0,
316      * 3 cases:
317          1) Use a constant-in-time 3-dim. field
318          2) Provide 12 3-dim. fields corresponding to Jan., ... , Dec.
319          3) Real-time relax. to time-evolving prescribed field
320    o Adding Laplacian-type smoothness constraint on
321      initial and boundary (forcing) controls (ic, bc)
322      * enable at compile-time via
323        ALLOW_SMOOTH_IC_COST_CONTRIBUTION, ALLOW_SMOOTH_BC_COST_CONTRIBUTION
324      * enable at run-time via mult_smooth_ic = 1, mult_smooth_bc = 1
325      * Absolute scale somewhat unclear so far
326      * no area weighting was included since no other cost term does so far
327    
328    checkpoint57y_post
329    First step for a NLFS adjoint
330    o initially suppress rStar (new flag DISABLE_RSTAR_CODE)
331    o new init. routines for calc_r_star, calc_surf_dr
332    o still need to deal with ini_masks_etc
333    o testreport seemed happy
334    checkpoint57y_pre
335    
336    o obcs: always reset wVel & eta (to zero or prescribe it) at the OBs.
337    o add new package rbcs (for relaxing ptracers at boundaries/depth/surface etc)
338    o add new offset feature to offline pkg (plus minor cleanup)
339    o cfc fixes for final year of integration
340    o clean up GCHEM_OPTIONS.h/DIC_OPTIONS.h (all options should
341      be in GCHEM_OPTIONS).
342    
343    checkpoint57x_post
344    o fix testreport Pb in multiple test experiment.
345    o cleanup our namelist syntax in verification:
346      - make it more F95 standards compliant (some work still needed)
347      - allows the vast majority of our tests to work with gfortran
348    o Non-Hydrostatic:
349     - put all NH variables (formerly in DYNVARS.h & GW.h) in NH_VARS.h
350     - fix exchange calls for CS-grid using the new EXCH_S3D_RL.
351    o Allow to apply AB on T,S rather than on AB(gT,gS):
352     - implemented within #ifdef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3
353     - use the same arrays (gtNm,gsNm) to hold tracer field at previous
354       time-steps (if AB(T,S)) and tendencies (if AB(gT,gS)).
355     - need a "clever" read_pickup to restart from the other AB formulation
356    o move local commom bloc /GlobalLo/ (used for singleCpuIO) in EESUPPORT.h
357    o remove some unused variables (reduces number of compiler warnings)
358    o adjoint
359      * Disable useVariableViscosity for adjoint for time being
360        (there are a number of extensive recomputations)
361      * Initialize certain variables needed for adjoint
362    
363    checkpoint57w_post
364    o pkg/mdsio: use MAX_LEN_FNAM (instead of hard coded 80) for file-names
365                 fix the singleCpuIO RS version of MDSWRITEFIELD
366       and add a WARNING if using globalFiles=T with multi-processors.
367    o write grid-file(s) in only one format (MDS or MNC): default=MNC (if
368      using MNC); can force MDS output by setting writegrid_mnc=F in data.mnc
369    o tracer advection scheme:
370      add DST-2 (=Lax-Wendroff) & 1rst order upwind schemes (the way to get
371       those 2 schemes before, changing GAD_FLUX_LIMITER.h + to recompile,
372       was not very convenient).
373      add implicit version for DST-3 & DST3_Flux_Limit vertical advection;  
374       (further tests needed for the implicit DST & Flux-Limiter schemes).
375    o PTRACERS: added namelist parameter PTRACERS_ref in analogy to tRef
376      and sRef for convenience, handy, when you want to initialize
377      ptracers in a large domain with a constant non-zero value. Also,
378      untangle ptracers_init.F a little.
379    
380    checkpoint57v_post
381    o change dome exp. to use variable viscosity in side-drag terms.
382    o remove all the files from the cfc_offline test since they are now
383      incorporated into tutorial_cfc_offline which has been producing
384      identical results for a few days of testing
385    o add new parameter: sideDragFactor to enable half-slip-side BC
386      and change side-drag S/R to use viscosity from mom_calc_visc
387      (can switch back by setting sideDragFactor=0.); affects results at
388      truncation level; regenerate output for exp.: global_ocean.cs32x10(x3),
389       global_ocean_ebm, global_ocean_pressure, matrix_example & MLAdjust(x5).
390    o vorticity & strain are now computed without masking, to account for
391      no-slip-side BC in variable viscosity calculation ; mask is applied
392      anyway later on, before computing advection/coriolis terms.
393    o modify exp4 to test new obcs support for reading from external files
394      and for passive tracers
395    o fix behavior of ptracers_monitor when monitor output is written to a
396      netcdf-file; still not independent of monitor.F (writes in the same
397      file).
398    o change default value of tRef (put a uniform, meaningful value for ocean
399      & atmos) and initialize sRef (was missing, as Martin mentioned).
400    o Redefine viscC?Leith*.  Change the coefficients of Leith viscosity
401      to be proportional to enstrophy dissipation length.  Thus,
402       viscC?leith?_new=pi*(viscC?leith?_old)^(1/3)
403      This is now consistent with Smagorinsky and with the manual.
404    
405    checkpoint57u_post
406    o OBCS and PTRACERS: add open boundary support for passive tracers
407      - either use homogenous (pseudo) v.Neumann conditions or prescribe
408        OB-values from file; this is not different from the way theta and salinity
409        are treated
410      - however, Orlanski-radiation conditions are not supported, and the model
411        will stop if you use pTracers and Orlanski at the same time.
412      - beefed up the rountine obcs_external_fields_load: now only those open
413        boundary values are overwritten with values from files for which there
414        are really files, otherwise the OB-fields remain untouched. This makes
415        it possible to use different OBs at different ends of the domain (as
416        with EXF)
417    o reduce number of exch calls in shap_filt (s2).
418    o CS-grid: fix divergence contribution to Leith viscosity. Affects (@
419      truncation level) 4/5 MLAdjust test results (11&12 digits match).
420    
421    checkpoint57t_post
422    o test biharmonic viscosity + no-slip with exp: global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
423    o finish adding brackets (coriolis S/R, vecinv) in multi-terms sum to get
424      same truncation, independent of the face number: affects affects several
425      test. exp.: Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
426    o fix bug in mom_v_sidedrag (biharmonic viscosity was counted 2 times);
427      note that biharmonic viscosity + no-slip was not tested in any experiment.
428    o fix bug in non-linear free-surf side-drag ; generate new output for
429      global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & global_ocean_pressure.
430    o make mnc honor the writeBinaryPrec flag for most kinds of output
431    o eesupp: split EEPARAMS into EESIZE/EEPARAMS and add a vector global sum
432    o minor change in averaging W (mom_vi_?_vertshear.F) that affects truncation
433      error; update output from global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
434    o add brackets in multi-terms sum to get same truncation, independent of
435      the face number (manage to get exactly same value of gU,gV at the cs-edge)
436      affects several test. exp. Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice).
437    o Clean, new version of mom_calc_visc.  Adds a new feature, viscAhRemax
438      and viscA4Remax, which allow one to limit the minimum viscosity by specifying
439      a maximum grid-scale Reynolds number.  Also, changes all length calculations
440      in the case of grid anisotropy to geometric mean of dx**2 and dy**2.
441      Suggested values of viscosity parameters found in mom_calc_visc.
442      Many new viscosity diagnostics available.
443    
444    checkpoint57s_post
445    o Add clearing-house for viscosity calculations, mom_calc_visc and
446      correct numerous bugs in LeithD and Smagorinsky discretizations.  
447      mom_calc_visc now allows for Smagorinsky, Leith and LeithD to be
448      used simultaneously, and to be used in mom_vecinv and mom_fluxform.
449      Mom_vecinv can be used with standard viscous calculation (mom_vi_hdissip.F)
450      and with Strain-Tension viscous term calculation (mom_hdissip.F).  
451      The Strain-Tension form is now called with useStrainTensonVisc=.true.
452      ViscAhStrain and viscAhTension are now retired.
453    o diagnostics "VISCAHD" & "VISCA4D" replace "VISCAH" & "VISCA4".
454    o In response to JMC's bug report, genmake2 now ignores any soft-links
455      that it finds in the *current* directory when searching for files.
456      Soft-links found in any other source directories will still work as
457      they did before.
458    o add HAVE_SETRLSTK define and useSETRLSTK flag (eedata) which calls
459      a C routine to unlimit the stack size
460    o mnc-ify pkg/aim snapshot vars
461    o mnc-ify pkg/land as requested by Daniel
462    o various changes to mnc including:
463      - all files use the new "BASENAME[[.ITER].{t|f}NUM].nc" format
464      - output can now be grouped so that all files within a group
465          change the ITER portion of their names in lock-step together
466      - can now read ("global") PER-FACE (in addition to PER-TILE) files
467          and works with both EXCH1 and EXCH2 (but needs more testing)
468      - writing works for all verification test cases w/ g77 on Linux
469    
470    checkpoint57r_post
471    o make MNC variable initialization happen earlier
472    o add diagnostics for (almost) each term of the momentum Eq.
473    o remove SST,SSS,UVEL_k2,VVEL_k2 diagnostics.
474    o move pkg timeave out of pkg-groups "oceanic" & "atmospheric" (pkg/pkg_groups)
475    o remove MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT option ;
476      add "dumpInitAndLast" to replace "nodumps" (and MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT).
477    o move some basic S/R (used elsewhere in the code) from pkg/mdsio to eesupp/src
478      allows to compile without pkg/mdsio (& test successfully hs94.1x64x5)
479    o add MNC output for adjoint of EXF (adexf), SEAICE (adseaice)
480    o add time-dependent SST, SSS control
481    o cost terms in ecco/ modularized (new cost_generic.F)
482    o cost_averages routines are modularized (new cost_averagesgeneric.F)
483    o new infrastructure for seaice model vs. obs misfits in seaice/
484      * driver from the_main_loop.F is seaice_cost_driver.F
485      * first term is AREA vs. SMR observation misfit (ALLOW_SEAICE_COST_SMR_AREA)
486      * gradient check in Exp. 6a of natl_box_adjoint/
487    o natl_box_adjoint input_seaice for Lab. Sea now available online via wget
488      (see README file)
489    
490    checkpoint57q_post
491    o fix initialisation Pb in calc_gw (get NANs in exp5 with g77)
492    o fix annoying months-old bug in mnc/mdsio output for seaice pkg
493      - bug was reported by Jean-Michel and Ian Fenty
494    o fix initialization Pb in AIM-Ocean coupled model (aim_sice2aim.F)
495      update exp. cpl_aim+ocn output.
496    o Implement 4-level checkpointing: AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
497      Needed for high-res. runs with large global files
498      to be able to limit tapelev size
499    o Changed some tests for adjoint:
500      * carbon/ now tests AUTODIFF_2_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
501      * natl_box_adjoint/code_bulk/ tests AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
502      * global_ocean.90x40x15/ back to default 3-level checkpointing
503    o Modifications to enable scripted COMMON to MODULE conversion
504      * verification/OpenAD/code/ has necessary scripts and description;
505      * converts, compiles and runs successfully;
506    
507    checkpoint57p_post
508    o reading of delXfile & delYfile moved from ini_parms.F to ini_grid.F
509    o move ${PKG}_MNC_INIT from ${PKG}_READ_PARAMS to ${PKG}_INIT_FIXED
510      (already the case for some pkgs, including recent MNC_init, e.g. thsice)
511    o call CALC_GW from DYNAMICS (instead of from FORWARD_STEP)
512    o Dissipation & phiHyd gradient are always added to gU,gV in timestep.F
513      (was already the case for dissipation with mom_vecinv,
514       and also the case for grad.PhiHyd when staggered-timeStep)
515      This will allow to put dissipation out-off the AB time-stepping.
516     Unfortunately, affects truncation error. Update output of exp. that "fails"
517      (cg2d matching number) and leave the others for later: front_relax(10),
518      global_ocean_pressure(10),ideal_2D_oce(10),internal_wave(9),lab_sea(12),
519      matrix_example(7!),natl_box(12),plume_on_slope(11),vermix(12x3,11x2).
520    
521    checkpoint57o_post
522    o fix MNC/MDSIO flags in PTRACERS so that (1) it works, and
523      (2) its ready to be documented during the 20050801 DocFest
524    o MNC-ify the gmredi package -- tested and works w/ and w/o mnc
525      for ideal_2D_oce and lab_sea on linux_ia32_g77
526    o set to #undef CTRL_SET_OLD_MAXCVARS_30
527      in global1x1_tot/code_seaice_adj to access indices 32, 33
528      (worth another tag)
529    
530    checkpoint57n_post
531    o adding precip control xx_precip 32
532    o adding swflux control xx_swflux 33
533    o Replacing 10 forcing penalty cost routines by 1 generic.
534    o Implementing partitioning in time-mean and variable adjustment
535      for atmos. state.
536    o Time-mean constant error is now read in data.ecco (instead of hard-coded)
537    o in natl_box_adjoint:
538      * updated exp 1 to 10
539        (but does not have time-mean vs. variable split results yet)
540    o updated global1x1/*_seaice_adj/
541      to incorporate latest changes
542    o enable useSingleCpuIO for mdsio vector routines
543      (applies in particular to tapelev I/O)
544    o removed inefficient K-loop in all active_file*control*.F
545    
546    checkpoint57m_post
547    o re-arrange exp. adjustment.cs-32x32x1 (adjust_nlfs.cs-32x32x1 merge into)
548      and advect_cs (use EXCH-2 and standard cs-32 grid files).
549    o pkg/exch2: filling of face-corner halo regions is optional
550      (ifdef W2_FILL_NULL_REGIONS) and is turned off by default.
551    
552    checkpoint57l_post
553     tag before updating tutorials (pre-release-2)
554    o add cos & sin of grid-direction orientation angle (curvilinear grid only,
555       for output and interpolation of input fields onto model grid)
556    o fix radius in mom_v_metric_cylinder.F (wrong by dy/2).
557       Affects results of exp. rotating_tank ; update output.txt.
558    o pkg/diagnostics: 2 new S/R to fill a diagnostics using a scaling factor
559          and taking the square quantity and/or using a fraction-weight field.
560    o fix aim_diagnostics_init.F mate numbers.
561    o add mnc output capability to diagnostics/diagstat and update
562      our cvsignore files for the ACSII output generated
563    
564    checkpoint57k_post
565    o lab_sea now uses diagnostics package and provides a suite of
566      new EXF diagnostics output.
567    
568    checkpoint57j_post
569    o exf
570      * bug fix in exf_bulkformulae for psimh (spotted by Eliyahu Biton):
571        Bracket missing in eqn. for psimh (eqn. 7 of Large & Pond, 1982);
572        terms -2*ATAN(x) + pi/2 were added to both stable and unstable case.
573      * extended diagnostics output
574        - now includes all EXF variables
575        - hs, hl moved to common block
576        - separate S/R for diagnostics, called after ctrl vector is added
577        - name changed for EXFsw -> EXFswnet, EXFlw -> EXFlwnet
578        - EXFqnet contains true Qnet (i.e. includes qsw)
579      * updated verif. lab_sea, global_with_exf
580      * Rearranging hflux (exf_mapfields -> exf_getforcing)
581        to ensure that diagnostics sees a true EXFqnet
582    o add matlab scripts for CS-grid vectors (in utils/cs_grid)
583    o diagnostics pkg: change pointers so that 1 diagnostic can be used
584      several times with different frequencies.
585    o mnc-ify the thsice package as requested by Daniel Enderton
586      - the monitor--MNC output needs work
587      - many attributes need to be added (most are currently blank)
588    o mnc-ify theaim_v23 package as requested by Daniel Enderton
589      - many attributes need to be added (most are currently blank)
590    o remove "groundAtK1" & "rkFac" (replaced by usingPCoords & -rkSign)
591    o add Sadourny like discretization to the 4th.O vorticity advection scheme
592    o fix bug in rStar code (calc_r_star.F) when used with topo/bathy.
593      update output.txt from: aim.5l_cs (& .thSI), cpl_aim+ocn,
594         fizhi-gridalt-hs and global_ocean.cs32x15 (& .thsice).
595    o fix few little things to avoid floating error with -ftrapuv (ifort v9)
596     (ini_spherical_polar_grid.F, calc_r_star.F, monitor/mon_surfcor.F)
597    
598    checkpoint57i_post
599    o Diagnostics package was changed: diagnostic allocation is now deactivated
600      by setting an empty file name in the namelist (used to be by setting 0 frequency)
601    o momentum advection (VI form) options: activate 4th.O vorticity Coriolis ;
602      add 1rst Order upwind vertical Shear.
603    o add a quick fix for A/B checkpointing in OFFLINE mode
604    o add IGNORE_TIME define and -ignore_time option to genmake2 as an
605      end-run around the C/Fortran linking horror in eesup/src/timers.F
606    o added pkg/runclock: allows user to terminate run based on wall clock
607    o added non-hydrostatic scaling parameter: nh_am2
608    o pkg/my82: futile attempt to make results compiler-independent by adding
609      some "_d 0", etc. no effect.
610    o for mnc output, fill the 'T' coordinate var with myTime and create a
611      separate 'iter' variable for iteration count
612    o pkg/diagnostics:
613      add new capability: output of Global/Regional & per-level statistics ;
614      tested against monitor output (including land & thSIce) on various exp.
615    o make seaice-pkg I/O type flags (MNC/MDS) more standard.
616    
617    checkpoint57h_done

619      data.diagnostics, data.gchem, data.ptracers) is done.
620    
621    o pkg/diagnostics: prepare for Global/Regional statistics.
622      add 2nd namelist in data.diagnostics and update DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h
623    o remove "baseTime" (no used) from arg. list of DIFF_BASE_MULTIPLE
624      and rename it: DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE
625    
626    checkpoint57h_post
627    o move tIter0 from data.gchem to PTRACERS_Iter0 in data.ptracers
628    o pkg/diagnostics: change output frequency, now in seconds (instead
629      of Nb of iterations). This requires to change data.diagnostics.
630    checkpoint57h_pre
631    
632    o in mnc, let the user create the output dir if both mnc_outdir_date
633      and mnc_outdir_num are false
634    o add fflags() to pkg/diagnostics which allows one to specify, on a
635      per-file basis, the file precision [default behavior is unchanged]
636    o added diagnostics to pkg/kpp, including computation of mixed layer
637      depth based on a temperature/density criterion
638    o updated verification/natl_box to test the new pkg/kpp diagnostics
639    o bugs fixed (with useAbsVorticity=T & with useJamartMomAdv=T)
640    o test AB-3 code with 4th.Order advection scheme (advect_xy/input.ab3_c4)
641    o fix mnc flags in pkg/seaice so that they are "owned" by seaice,
642      not mnc -- this mistake was found by JMC and is now corrected
643    
644    checkpoint57g_post
645    o add Adams-Bashforth 3rd Order time stepping:
646      - default remains AB-2 (#undef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3)
647      - not yet implemented with NH, CD_Scheme, pTracers, MNC_pickup ...
648    checkpoint57g_pre
649    
650    o make lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax spatially varying
651      (default remains spatially uniform constant based on tau)
652    o added new control variables
653      * init. uVel, vVel, etanN
654      * lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax
655    o separate masks used for ctrl_pack/unpack 'from write_grid' output
656      (suggested by G. Forget)
657    
658    checkpoint57f_post
659    o add parameter "baseTime" = model base time = time at iteration zero
660      new function DIFF_BASE_MULTIPLE (replace DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE) to
661      account for baseTime shift
662    o move Coriolis arrays from PARAMS.h to GRID.h
663    checkpoint57f_pre
664    
665    o mnc-ifying the seaice package

668    o S/R ptracers_calc_diff: argument list bug for CALL KPP_CALC_DIFF_S
669    o added modified Leith scheme with viscosity proportional to grad(Hdiv)
670      as well as grad(vort3).  Made it compatible with both approximate form
671      for the cubed sphere and full form of these gradients.  Added flag
672      useFullLeith to select between approximate and full form.  
673    o add "d0" in getcon.F to reduce differences between compilers/platforms
674      update output.txt of exp. fizhi-gridalt-hs
675    o change port_rand funtion to allow to set the seed.
676    o fix obscure MNC bug involving conversion between reals and integers
677      - it caused no problems with certain (eg. gcc, ifc) compilers but the
678        new version is now more standards-compliant
679    o adjoint-related modifications
680      * gad_dst3_adv_?: to be able to use advscheme=30 in adjoint
681      * gad_calc_rhs: fool adjoint, revert to advscheme=30 in reverse when using 33
682      * mom_vi_hdissip: to be able to use Leith scheme in adjoint
683    
684    checkpoint57e_post

689      update output.txt of exp. fizhi-gridalt-hs
690    o add more "Z" dimensions and associated coordinate vars to MNC
691    o pkg/exf: added twoDigitYear capability for option useExfYearlyFields
692    o parameter calendarDumps: when set, approximate months (30-31 days) and years
693      (360-372 days) for parameters chkPtFreq, pChkPtFreq, taveFreq, SEAICE_taveFreq,
694      KPP_taveFreq, and freq in pkg/diagnostics are converted to exact calendar
695      months and years.  Requires pkg/cal.
696    o diagnostics: add pickup functionality
697      - off by default for backwards compatibility
698      - current version only uses MDSIO -- MNC will be added
699    o allow to use pkg diagnostics for LAND pkg output & Shapiro Tendencies.
700    o pkg/shap_filt: fix for multi-tiles per face (CS-grid with EXCH2)
701    
702    checkpoint57d_post
703    o pkg/thsice used in the ocean: fix tile Pb related to sIceLoad forcing
704    o modify verification/ideal_2D_oce so that it tests the creation of mnc
705      output from the diagnostics package
706    o temporary fix in EXCH2_UV: add a 3rd call to fix the 24.tiles CS-grid set-up
707    o make genmake2 more portable by using ".$FS" instead of ".f" for more
708      of the test compilations (eg. IBM xlf on Mac OSX w/HFS filesys)
709    o add coordinate variables to the MNC output from the diagnostics package
710    o change MNC-flags default value: true when useMNC=TRUE
711    o add a "readgrid_mnc" flag to MNC and give model/src/ini_curvilinear_grid.F
712      the ability (off by default) to read the grid information using MNC
713    o lab_sea: use LSR_ERROR=1.E-12 for testing ; update output.txt
714    o diagnostics: fix a bug (sub-set of levels); keep full precision when averaging
715    o do snap-shot diagnostics at the middle of the time-interval (instead of
716      at the end).
717    o update exp. aim.5l_cs (use default LAND_OPTIONS.h file) and add
718      new test for AIM with thSIce + slab-ocean
719    o cpl_aim+ocn test: update output (optfile & default GMREDI_OPTIONS.h)
720    o move state variable diagnostics to the beginning of the time step ;
721      (note: still needs some work specially for snap-shot diagnostics)
722      duplicate & replace UVELVVEL diagnostics with UV_VEL_C & UV_VEL_Z
723    
724    checkpoint57c_post
725    o Change testing option (-ieee) to get closer agreement between g77 & ifort
726    o generate new output.txt files on faulks with g77 & the new -ieee option

728    
729    o add "_d 0" in freeze ; change some "FLOAT" to "DFLOAT" and went back (TAF);
730      update output.txt of exp. global_ocean.90x40x15
731    o fix in ini_eos.F (one "_d 0" was missing): now g77 & ifc give much closer
732      results; update global_ocean_pressure & global_ocean.cs32x15 output.txt
733    o add saltFlux(+File) forcing capability with periodicExternalForcing
734    o allow to use pkg diagnostics for GM-Redi & ThSIce output
735    o diagnostics_fill: fill in up to sNx+1 or sNy+1 (if U,V or Z pt) for mnc.
736    o improvements for the MNC output from DIAGNOSTICS:
737      - correct handling of the unlimitied dimension
738      - all dims now have associated coordinate variables
739      - variables located at U, V, and Corner ("Z") points are now written
740        with the correct horzontal dimensions (eg. 'Xp1', 'Yp1') so that
741        *all* data points are output
742    o added seaice_summary.F and removed obsolete ALLOW_SEAICE's from pkg/seaice
743    o added pkg/seaice/seaice_monitor.F
744    o mdsio_readfield.F can now read files visible only to master MPI process.
745    o pkg/seaice: some test code for ice-modified ocean stress
746    o exf_getffields interpolation defaults to bilinear for all scalar forcing
747      fields (remains bicubic for wind velocity and stress).  This avoids, e.g.,
748      spurious negative numbers for precipitation and humidity.  Will cause
749      some small numerical differences for integrations using pkg/exf/exf_interp.F.
750    o pkg/ctrl/
751      * Add ctrlvec diagnostics in pack/unpack for nondimensional I/O
752        May be enabled via doPackDiag
753      *  introduce z-scaling of
754         + gradient (doZscalePack) and
755         + control (doZscaleUnpack)
756    o pkg/mdsio/
757      * enable useSingleCpuIO for state estimation (ctrl_pack/unpack) mdsio_gl.F
758      * N.B.: leave tiled I/O for tapelev (i.e. mds...vector)
759    
760    checkpoint57b_post
761    o simplify options in diagnostics_fill arguments (remove weird combinations)
762    o fix MNC coordinate variables so that they now contain per-face index
763      values (instead of xC,xG,yC,yG values) when run with EXCH2 since, in
764      general, EXCH2 grids are only aligned to a "local" coordinate system
765    o test diagnostics pkg in dic_example (no output) and ideal_2D_oce (with ouput)
766    o Implement instantaneous output within pkg diagnostics:
767      setting a negative frequency in data.diagnostics produces
768     "snap-shot" output (as opposed to time-average if freq > 0)
769    o move out off EQUIVALENCE all diagnostics that fizhi does not use ;
770      NOTE: change ptracer diagnostics name: use 2 characters to work with
771            more than 9 tracers. Add also diagnostics of advect & diffus flux.
772    o more CF compliance: convert all MNC 'iter' variables to 'T' so that it
773      becomes the coordinate variable for the 'T' dimension
774    o add CF-style coordinate variables to MNC
775      - just a first cut:  numbers are meaningless on the cubesphere and
776        missing along the T axis but otherwise it works!
777    o add surface flux diagnostics: TAUX, TAUY, TFLUX, TRELAX, TICE, SFLUX, SRELAX
778    o pkg/thSIce: read initial state from 6 files ; allow monitor to use MNC.
779    o add diagnostics of advective & diffusive flux for T & S (pTracers coming soon)
780      this is based directly on what the model compute, so that the content of
781      each diagnostics might be affected by switching options (e.g., implicitDiffusion)
782    o small changes for diagnostics (gad_biharm_?.F, arguments of S/R impldiff.F)
783    o clean up build options files for SunOS, in particular
784      - remove -traditional from xmakedepend
785      - change -xarch=v9 to -xarch=native for f77
786      - restore use of make (not gmake)
787      - add CC=gcc if using g77
788    o changes per discussion of AM, JMC, & EH3 today:
789      - move redundant "grid" variables out of "state" -- in preparation of
790        creating proper CF-style coordinate variables and in recognition
791        that any/all grid variables can be easily copied (eg. w/NCO) from
792        the grid files into any of the other NetCDF files
793      - *always* output grid variables with MDSIO (this will eventually be
794        changed)
795      - output MNC grid file if useMNC is true
796    o every instance of _END_MASTER() has been found and replaced with
797      _END_MASTER( myThid ) in order to satisfy certain picky Sun
798      preprocessors
799    o re-arrange diagnostics pkg initialisation:
800     - allow each package to extend the available diagnostics list
801     - add some checking and fix small problems (multi-threaded, ...)
802     - new S/R diagnostics_fill (replace fill_diagnostics):
803       look through the short list of active diag. (instead of the long list)
804       create function DIAGNOSTICS_IS_ON to tell if a diagnostics is active
805    
806    checkpoint57a_post
807    o this set of changes restores TAMC compatibility
808      tested for global_ocean.90x40x15 adjoint on trough
809      (what a pain)
810    
811    checkpoint57a_pre
812    o some modifs in tools/build_options for sunos
813    o call ctrl_pack for ctrl at end for optimcycle=0
814    
815    checkpoint57
816    o add horizontal bi-harmonic viscosity for vertical velocity
817      - new parameter viscA4W (defaults to viscA4)
818      - affects only non-hydrostatic code
819      - to be done: no-slip lateral boundary conditions
820    o switch back to "sflux = sflux - runoff" in exf_getforcing.F
821    o implement Implicit Vertical advection for pTracers
822    o depth convergence accelerator: replace deltaTtracer by dTtracerLev(k)
823      (implemented also for implicit vertical diffusion & advection)
824    o OBCS: extend application of tracer open boundary conditions
825      to a strip beyond the boundary of width Olx/Oly
826    o add call monitor to TAF set of required calls (flow directives)
827      and include in natl_box_adjoint
828    o untangle a few ifdefs related to cost, ctrl, autodiff
829      untangel a few ALLOW_ECCO_OPTIMIZATION
830    o Apply Cooper & Haines representative estimates also at sub-surface (k=Nr)
831      (theta2, salt2 in ecco_cost_weights)
832    
833    checkpoint56c_post
834    o OBCS as control variables
835      - update ctrl_ad_diff.list, obcs_ad_diff.list
836      - remove balance of obcs controls from default
837      - fix index bug nobcs in ctrl_init
838      - fix dummy fields filen in ctrl_pack
839      - add dummy weights for obcs
840    o lsopt: comment out fort.94 output
841    o optim:
842      - remove unnecessary header files
843      - adjusted namelists
844      - add xerbla.F to Makefile
845    o exf:
846      - multiple modifications of exf_check_range
847      - unit change in exf_init_runoff from [m/year] to [m/s]
848    o mdsio:
849      - i/o-vector change debugLevel from debLevA to debLevB
850    
851    checkpoint56b_post
852    o collect all ptracers output in an new routine (PTRACERS_OUTPUT) that
853      is called from DO_THE_MODEL_IO
854      - rename PTRACERS_STATV_WRITE to PTRACERS_WRITE_TIMEAVE
855      - introduce new parameter PTRACERS_dumpFreq (defaults to dumpFreq)
856      - clean up PTRACERS_WRITE_TIMEAVE a little
857    o add another verification experiment that tests both the cfc-pkg and
858      the gchem-pkg with GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING undefined, that is with
859      reactive tendencies treated inline with regular timestepping
860    o testreport previously did a lousy job of comparing small numbers, so
861      we (Ed and Martin) changed the  way the cut-off of 1.e-12 is
862      implemented in the little c-progam tmp_cmpnum.c which is embedded in
863      testreport.
864    o ptracers_monitor: bug fix for MPI
865    
866    checkpoint56a_post
867    o GCHEM: finish reorganizating the package
868      - forward_step calls GCHEM_CALC_TENDENDY, which computes gchemTendency
869        (introduces another 3D-array for each passive tracer, but only if
870        GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING is undefined. For GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING
871        gchemTendency is not needed because the timestep is done separately)
872      - gchemTendency is added to gPtr in GCHEM_ADD_TENDENCY
873      - GCHEM is now---more or less cleanly---separate from PTRACERS
874      - to bo done: handling of surfaceForcingPtr that is needed for KPP not
875        so clear to me how that should be done in a general way.
876    o CFC: improve formatting of output in CFC_ATMOS
877    o PTRACERS:
878      - rename GCHEM_MONITOR to PTRACERS_MONITOR and call it from MONITOR, so
879        that ALL experiments with ptracers enable can be checked. This makes
880        GCHEM_MONITOR obsolete.
881      - include a runtime parameter PTRACERS_monitorFreq that defaults to
882        monitorFreq
883      - set default PTRACERS_write_mdsio to false if PTRACERS_write_mnc is true
884    o add PTRACERS (PTR0[1-5]) to testreport output
885    o exf_check_range:
886      * default changed to .TRUE.
887      * will check values for niter0 if debLevA, every timestep if debLevB
888      * STOP in exf_check_range if 'out of range'
889      * range chosen generous to allow for potential extema
890      TBD: a version with stricter range
891           permitted range would be runtime parameters
892  o GMredi:  o GMredi:
893    - fix ldd97 slope limit ; extend valid domain of Psi-Bolus ;    - fix ldd97 slope limit ; extend valid domain of Psi-Bolus ;
894    - 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.

900      - renamed PTRACERS_SEPARATE_FORCING to GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING;
901        this flag is now only visible within GCHEM-pkg routines.
902      - moved gchem_forcing_int temporarily into ptracers_forcing, this will
903        be replaced by a 3D array that is computed before thermodynamics; for
904        this, the tracer ID iTracer had to be included into the parameter list
905        of ptracers_forcing
906      - set up forward_step to call gchem_forcing, that will replace
907        gchem_forcing_int in ptracers_forcing
