5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o towards a standard way of dealing with multi-threading in MONITOR
8      and ${PKG}_MONITOR (all except ptracers_monitor) subroutines.
9    o Pass variable viscosities (vertical and horizontal, e.g., KPP or Leith)
10       to W momentum equation in nonhydrostatic and quasihydrostatic runs.  
11    o make exf_monitor & seaice_monitor independant of the main (dynamics) monitor.
12    o pkg/seaice: fix SEAICEuseEVPpickup parameter (put it in a commom block)
13    o generic_advdiff: DST advection S/R : use local copy of velocity to compute CFL
14       (problems ? with gradient check in bottom_ctrl_5x5 adjoint test)
15    o tracer advection:
16     - clean-up and simplify calc_common_factors.F
17     - make a local copy of velocity and pass it (as u,v,r_Trans) to DST tracer
18       advection subroutine (but still not used within DST advection S/R)
19    o rename pkg aim_ocn_coupler to atm_ocn_coupler (later on, will be used without aim)
20    
21    checkpoint58j_post
22    o new driver S/R: LOAD_FIELDS_DRIVER to load external forcing fields
23      from file (collects calls previously in FORWARD_STEP)
24    o move call to SEAICE_MODEL from FORWARD_STEP to DO_OCEANIC_PHYS
25    o adjoint store dir. adjusted accordingly
26    o genmake2
27      replace target "ad_taf" by $(EXE_AD) ; add $(EXE_AD) to the make CLEAN list.
28    
29    checkpoint58i_post
30    o pkg/seaice: add parameter that allows to scale/turn off effect of seaice
31      on wind stress (SEAICEstressFactor defaults to 1.)
32    o Total number of Timers is finite (<=40): comment out 2 non-essential one
33      in the_main_loop.F to avoid Pb (e.g., when running fizhi test)
34    o vector_invariant: fix highOrderVorticity(=4.th.Order) advection
35      on CS-grid: no longer loosing mass.
36    o exf & curvilinear-grid: no longer modify longitude xC & xG.
37    o pkg/ggl90: fix sloppy output and fix a bug
38    o pkg/seaice: added SEAICEuseEVPpickup parameter
39      - Set to false in order to start EVP solver with
40        non-EVP pickup files when using SEAICEuseEVP
41      - fix sign error in diffusion in seaice_calc_rhs
42    
43    checkpoint58h_post
44    * Modifications for bottom topography control
45      o replace hFacC by _hFacC at various places
46      o replace ALLOW_HFACC_CONTROL by ALLOW_DEPTH_CONTROL
47      o add non-self-adjoint cg2d_nsa
48      o update autodiff support routines
49      o re-initialise hfac after ctrl_depth_ini
50      o works for 5x5 box, doesnt work for global_ocean.90x40x15
51    * Adding verification for 5x5 box (4-layer) bottom topography control
52    
53    checkpoint58g_post
54    o pkg/diagnostics: implement "periodic averaging diagnostics" (e.g.,
55       used for mean seasonal cycle, mean diurnal cycle); add an example
56       in verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.thsice/data.diagnostics
57    o pkg/ggl90:
58      - add parameter (minimum surface kinetic energy)
59      - fix bug (avoiding division by zero)
60    o couple pkg/thsice to pkg/seaice:
61      - modify advection in seaice to accomodate new scalar fields to be advected
62      - only muliDimAdection scheme work with seaice/thsice
63      - mapping of thsice-variables to seaice-variables, back and forth
64      - does not break the verification experiments, but does not give the
65        desired results either
66    o pkg/seaice
67      - make (default) second order advection a bit less confusing?
68    
69    checkpoint58f_post
70    o couple pkg/thsice and pkg/exf (as a preparation for coupling pkg/thsice
71      to pkg/seaice):
72      - new routines thsice_map_exf and thsice_get_exf provide the interface
73      - add an additional formal parameter to thsice_solve4temp
74    o pkg/exf:
75      - add new fields wspeed, snowprecip (to be able to couple to thsice)
76      - correct Stefan-Boltzmann constant
77      - new parameter for longwave surface emittance
78      - separate some stuff from exf_bulkformulae into new routines  
79        exf_radiation, exf_wind
80      - add new parameters and constants: longwave emissivity for ocean, ice
81        and snow, evaporation parameters over ice
82      - decouple wind/stress computation from ALLOW_BULKFORMULA: always compute
83        either wind from stress or stress from wind
84    o pkg/thSIce:
85    - split thsice_step_fwd.F in 2 S/R: thsice_step_temp.F & thsice_step_fwd.F
86    - put i,j loops inside S/R: THSICE_ALBEDO, THSICE_SOLVE4TEMP, THSICE_EXTEND
87       and THSICE_CALC_THICKN
88    - for now, call to THSICE_GET_BULKF remains inside i,j loops.
89    - add CPP option: ALLOW_DBUG_THSICE and header file THSICE_DEBUG.h
90      to make debugging easier.
91    - affects results (@ truncation level) of global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice: update output
92    o pkg/bulk_force:
93      - clean-up comments and parameters ;
94      - add new Bulk-Formulae from Large and Yeager, 2004, NCAR/TN-460+STR ;
95    o fix bug in aim+thsice albedo: snow & ice thickness arguments were switched;
96      generate new output for test-experiment: aim.5l_cs.thSI
97    o results_ad : rename "output.txt_adm" to "output_adm.txt" and change
98      testreport accordingly
99    
100    checkpoint58e_post
101    o SEAICE_CGRID adjoint done
102    o R_STAR adjoint implemented.
103      * Seems to just work (based on global_ocean.90x40x15/code_ad_nlfs/ )
104      * need to sort out init. of h0facc, etc.
105    o Make pkg/profile fully independent of ecco,cost, etc. stuff
106      to be able to use it in pure forward.
107    
108    checkpoint58d_post
109    o upgrade simple test-experiment to tutorial example:
110     step.1: duplicate the experiment and (step.2) will remove the old copy.
111      tutorial_barotropic_gyre      <- copy of exp0     (R1:barotropic_gyre_in_a_box)
112      tutorial_baroclinic_gyre      <- copy of exp1     (R1:baroclinic_gyre_on_a_sphere)
113      tutorial_global_oce_latlon    <- empty for now    (R1:global_ocean_circulation)
114      tutorial_global_oce_biogeo    <- copy of dic_example
115      tutorial_deep_convection      <- almost like exp5 (R1:nonhydrostatic_deep_convection)
116      tutorial_plume_on_slope       <- copy of plume_on_slope
117      tutorial_tracer_adjsens       <- copy of carbon   (R1:tracer_adjoint_sensitivity)
118      tutorial_global_oce_optim     <- empty for now (David ?)
119      tutorial_global_oce_in_p      <- copy of global_ocean_pressure
120     some tutorials (R1) were already checked-in under tutorial_examples in release1_branch
121    o correct a sign problem in cost_scat.F
122    o obcs and ptracers: fix boundary conditions for advections schemes
123      with larger stencil
124    o thsice adjoint: start
125    o mom_vecinv: add ISOTROPIC_COS_SCALING flags to mom_vi_hdissip for
126      completeness
127    o mom_fluxform: fixing the mutual use of ISOTROPIC_COS_SCALING
128      and COSINEMETH_III, add comments in default CPP_OPTIONS.h
129    o ptracers adjoint:
130      * avoid extensive recomputatations
131      * fix missing re-init. of gptr (missed by TAF)
132    o obcs: add a flag (OBCSprintDiags, defaults is true) that allows
133      me to turn off the excessive output to STDOUT that this package produces
134    o move NH metric terms & 3.D Coriolis S/R to pkg/mom_common
135      and add those terms in Vector-Invariant formulation.
136    o in ctrl pkg, if ALLOW_CAL, use monthly mean controls
137      if the control period (xx_hfluxperiod etc) is 0
138    o in profiles pkg, clean routines and fix details
139    o in ecco pkg, reading ssh data:
140      fix problem in case the model does not start at iter0=0
141    o fix mnc-pickup/restart for ptracers
142    o new package prifiles:
143      code to compute profile-based cost by Gael Forget
144      (modifs in ecco, ctrl, autodiff)
145    o Benign bug fix in initialization (spotted by M. Mazloff) of
146      ctrl_set_globfld_xz.F ctrl_set_globfld_yz.F
147    
148    checkpoint58c_post
149    o adjoint: finish NLFS adjoint and provide reference output in
150      verification/global_ocean.90x40x15/results_ad_nlfs
151    o seaice: add an EVP solver following Hunke and Dukowicz (1997) and the
152      documentation of CICE. Turn on by defining SEAICE_ALLOW_EVP in
153      SEAICE_OPTIONS.h and SEAICEuseEVP=.true. in data.seaice. Works only
154      with SEAICE_CGRID defined.
155    o move calendarDumps from "data" to "data.cal" and clean-up the code
156      with a simple call to pkg/cal S/R: CAL_TIME2WRITE
157    o add useEXF & useCAL flags (for now, set in hard-coded way)
158    o add S/R to compute NH-metrics terms & Coriolis f' in vertical momentum
159      (were missing in NH mode, and wrong in quasihydrostatic mode).
160      waiting for Chris updated version of calc_gw to add those CALLs.
161    o fix bug in quasihydrostatic S/R ;
162      add a test for this option: global_ocean.90x40x15.qshyd
163    o new S/R "SET_PARMS": set parameters that might depend on the use of some pkgs.
164      (called from INITIALISE_FIXED, after INI_PARMS & PACKAGES_READPARAMS)
165    o add on/off flag useOffLine for package OFFLINE
166    o seaice:
167      - modify advection so that it works also on the C-grid
168      - extend loop ranges in seaice_lsr and seaice_dynsolver; fixes
169        problem in multi-tile runs with C-grid
170      - add flags for clipping ice velocities and/or masking solver forcing
171      - fix drag (ocean on ice) formulation and a bug that caused noise in the
172        C-grid solver
173      - added a few comments to seaice_diffusion.F
174      - separate C-grid and B-grid versions more cleanly (UVM and seaiceMaskU/V
175        are now exclusive)
176      - add a new ocean-ice stress coupling method (Hibler and Bryan, 1987) which
177        required re-ordering the code a little:
178       + make DAIRN global variable (defined in SEAICE)
179       + move computation of the viscosities eta and zeta into a new separate
180         routine (because I need to recompute them in seaice_ocean_stress.F)
181    
182    checkpoint58b_post
183    o AIM+thSIce: fix sign of Short-Wave through the Ice ;
184      update output.txt of exp. aim.5l_cs.thSI
185    o various mnc cleanups and improvements:
186      + shrink lookup tables by factor of ~4
187      + better error reporting when running out of lookup space
188      + able to handle longer path/file names (up to 500 chars)
189    o adjoint:
190      - Another overhaul of store dirs. for NLFS to eliminate  "hidden" recomputations.
191      - TBD: "hidden" mom_vecinv recomp. in dynamics
192    o change forcing_In_AB to affects both T,S forcing and Momentum forcing
193     (allow to differentiate between forcing components using new integer flags:
194      momForcingOutAB=1/0 & tracForcingOutAB=1/0)
195     and add new flag to put Dissipation tendency out of Adams-Bashforth.
196    o ecco
197      - enable trend removal from SSH anomaly obs.
198    o adjoint
199      - a fix for PmEpR when #undef EXACT_CONSERV
200      - fix of "hidden" recomp. in thermodynamics (no TAF warnings)
201      - try to fix "hidden" recomp. in forward_step for NLFS
202        (NLFS seems broken sometimes after I checked it in)
203    o seaice:
204     - add c-grid version of the dynamic solver:
205       + three new routines that are the c-grid substitute lsr, dynsolver
206         and ostres
207       + put a few fields that were local to dynsolver into global common
208         blocks, so that I can move the computation of stresses etc into
209         seaice_lsr (saves coding but may break the adjoint).
210     - replace more hardwired parameters by runtime parameters
211     - add ice masks that mask the rhs of the implicit solvers where there
212       is no ice (commented out in seaice_dynsolver, because i am not sure
213       if this works properly), eventually this should replace the clipping
214       of ice velocities in seaice_dynsolver to +/-40cm/s.
215    o remove the BUILD_INFO.h include from CPP_EEOPTIONS.h and explicitly
216      include it only where its needed
217    o move balancing of fluxes before the call of external_forcing_surf
218    o seaice:
219      - correct units of turning angles (now they are really in degrees)
220      - move computation of GWATX/Y out of main routine into dynsolver
221      - initialize GWATX/Y in seaice_init
222    o Apply mask on Fresh-Water flux (needed for SSH forcing).
223      update output.txt of exp. global_ocean_ebm & cpl_aim+ocn (affects cg2d residual)
224    o seaice: add runtime flags for turning angles (default to zero)
225    o Adding runtime parameter to exf/, ctrl/, to remove on-the-fly global mean
226      and trend from exf forcing and ctrl control adjustments
227    o fix variable aliasing in gad_calc_rhs that cannot be handled by TAF
228      (since checkpoint57x_post)
229    o change the default rotation period to 86164.s = the Earth rotation
230    o 1rst implementation of Implicit IGW using the 3-D solver (use3Dsolver=T)
231      and based on a reference stratification. Tested within hs94.cs-32x32x5.
232    o seaice advection: add code for choosing between the default (2nd order
233      central differences) and multiDim advection schemes provided by
234      pkg/generic_advdiff
235    o seaice:
236      - removed all references to SEAICE_GRID.h fields from
237        dynsolver, advect, diffus, lsr, without changing the results of lab_sea
238        (cubed-sphere configuration will change a little)
239      - grid computations in seaice_init are obsolete now.
240      - cleaned up code a little so that is easier to read (hopefully).
241      - added new (better?) discretizations of default advection and diffusion
242        (turn on with SEAICEuseFluxForm)
243      - replace 1 in 3d global fields by kSurface in growth.F
244      
245    checkpoint58a_post
246    o seaice:
247      - bug fix in advect.F
248    o shelfice:
249      - separate shelfice load anomaly from pload (breaks with time
250        dependent forcing), => introduce constant field shelficeLoadAnomaly.
251        Its default is 0., but it may be computed more cleverly from (unknown)
252        t- and s-profiles (tRef, sRef) and actual EOS. For now this has to be
253        done offline. A good approximation of the pressure load anomaly is
254        necessary to avoid large initial adjustment processes underneath
255        deep-reaching shelfice.
256      - small fix in ISOMIP shelfice_thermodynamics
257      - add more sophisticated thermodynamics of Hellmer (1989), this is
258        now the default
259      - give a few constants more intuitive names
260    o add code to balance EmPmP and Qnet at the end of do_ocean_physics. Useful
261      if bulk formulae are used in long integration (especially EmPmR). Turn
262      on with balanceEmPmR = .true. or balanceQnet = .true. in data, PARM01
263      if balancePrintMean, the imbalance that is substracted is printed to
264      STDOUT.
265    o fix bug (typo) in obcs_apply_eta.F
266    o add a new package shelfice which enables us to model the circulation
267      underneath shelf-ice with draughts of hundreds of meters.
268     - works
269     - to do: + include improved thermodynamics
270              + check whether kSurfC (from model/inc/SURFACE.h) can be used
271                instead of new field kTopC
272              + can we use topoFile, Ro_surf and existing code in ini_depth.F
273                instead of new field R_shelfIce and new code in ini_depth.F
274                and ini_mask_etc.F?
275              + adjust vertical mixing schemes?
276    o seaice pkg:
277     - add a cpp-flag to include a simple formula for a salinity dependent
278       freezing point of sea water at the surface
279     - change the contents of SEAICE_TEST_ICE_STRESS_1 so that zonal and
280       meridional stresses are now different (and hopefully correct)
281    o AIM pkg: change threshold on large-scale condensation to conserve Heat.
282       update results of aim.5l_LatLon test ; fix title & units of AIM diagnostics
283       and  change 3 diagnostics names (OSR,OSRCLR,KM -> TSR,TSRCLR,DRAG)
284    o pkg/diagnostics: add options and parameters for regional-statistics
285       diagnostics ; define regions by reading a region-mask from a file
286       (might add other options later)
287    o pkg/bulk_force:
288     - add option and parameters to use AIM surface-flux formulae.
289     - Change loading part: S/R BULKF_FIELDS_LOAD only take care of bulkf_fields ;
290       others forcing fields (defined in PARM05, parameter file "data") are loaded
291       from S/R EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD, as usually (with useBulkforce = T or F).
292     - initialise all bulkf_fields in bulkf_init.F ; do in-lining of exf_bulkcdn.F
293     - use the right EXCH call for uwind,vwind (to work on CS-grid).
294     - re-arrange header files (move parameters from BULKF.h to BULKF_PARAMS.h)
295       and parameters (note: calcWindStress replaces .NOT.readwindstress).
296     - cleaner interface with pkg/thSIce (new S/R THSICE_GET_PRECIP).
297    
298    checkpoint58
299    o add "--embed-source" option to genmake2 which, when the supporting
300      tools can be compiled (as determined by genmake2) will turn on the
301      embed_files package which then embeds the entire MITgcm source code
302      (*.[fFhc] + Makefile) used for the build within the executable
303      - requested by CNH but off by default
304      - adds a paltry <9MB to the mitgcmuv executable in most cases
305      - only writes the output when useEMBEDSRC in eedata is true
306    o clean up 3-dim. relaxation codes:
307      * Fix I/O inconsistency in pkg/rbcs: replace precFloat32 by readBinaryPrec
308      * Remove 3-dim. relaxation code from pkg/exf (now use only pkg/rbcs)
309      * Thanks to Tom Haine for testing!
310    
311    checkpoint57z_post
312    o make CG3D solver compatible with Free-surface at k > 1 (p-coordinate):
313      affects output (@ truncation level) of exp. plume_on_slope ; updated.
314    o fix the pickup behavior for obcs in combination with ptracers
315    o fix a bug in ptracers_external_fields_load
316    o no AB-2 at the first iteration for Gw (consistent with Gu,Gv,Gt,Gs ...)
317      affects results of NH experiments (but all our NH tests have Gw[it=1]==0 !!)
318    o transfered surface NH pressure to eta field (if exactConserv).
319    o gmredi: fix bugs in slope tapering ldd97 (depthZ had the wrong sign)
320         and update lab_sea output.txt file.
321    o completing 3-dim. relaxation code: additional term
322         1/tau*( theta(i,j,k) - thetaStar(i,j,k) )
323      in S/R EXTERNAL_FORCING_T (file external_forcing.F)
324      * At compile time, in "EXF_OPTIONS.h" set
325          #define  ALLOW_CLIMTEMP_RELAXATION
326          #define  ALLOW_CLIMSALT_RELAXATION
327      * At runtime in "data", under &PARM03 set (e.g., units in seconds)
328          tauThetaClimRelax3Dim = 15552000.0,
329          tauSaltClimRelax3Dim  = 15552000.0,
330      * 3 cases:
331          1) Use a constant-in-time 3-dim. field
332          2) Provide 12 3-dim. fields corresponding to Jan., ... , Dec.
333          3) Real-time relax. to time-evolving prescribed field
334    o Adding Laplacian-type smoothness constraint on
335      initial and boundary (forcing) controls (ic, bc)
336      * enable at compile-time via
337        ALLOW_SMOOTH_IC_COST_CONTRIBUTION, ALLOW_SMOOTH_BC_COST_CONTRIBUTION
338      * enable at run-time via mult_smooth_ic = 1, mult_smooth_bc = 1
339      * Absolute scale somewhat unclear so far
340      * no area weighting was included since no other cost term does so far
341    
342    checkpoint57y_post
343    First step for a NLFS adjoint
344    o initially suppress rStar (new flag DISABLE_RSTAR_CODE)
345    o new init. routines for calc_r_star, calc_surf_dr
346    o still need to deal with ini_masks_etc
347    o testreport seemed happy
348    checkpoint57y_pre
349    
350    o obcs: always reset wVel & eta (to zero or prescribe it) at the OBs.
351    o add new package rbcs (for relaxing ptracers at boundaries/depth/surface etc)
352    o add new offset feature to offline pkg (plus minor cleanup)
353    o cfc fixes for final year of integration
354    o clean up GCHEM_OPTIONS.h/DIC_OPTIONS.h (all options should
355      be in GCHEM_OPTIONS).
356    
357    checkpoint57x_post
358    o fix testreport Pb in multiple test experiment.
359    o cleanup our namelist syntax in verification:
360      - make it more F95 standards compliant (some work still needed)
361      - allows the vast majority of our tests to work with gfortran
362    o Non-Hydrostatic:
363     - put all NH variables (formerly in DYNVARS.h & GW.h) in NH_VARS.h
364     - fix exchange calls for CS-grid using the new EXCH_S3D_RL.
365    o Allow to apply AB on T,S rather than on AB(gT,gS):
366     - implemented within #ifdef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3
367     - use the same arrays (gtNm,gsNm) to hold tracer field at previous
368       time-steps (if AB(T,S)) and tendencies (if AB(gT,gS)).
369     - need a "clever" read_pickup to restart from the other AB formulation
370    o move local commom bloc /GlobalLo/ (used for singleCpuIO) in EESUPPORT.h
371    o remove some unused variables (reduces number of compiler warnings)
372    o adjoint
373      * Disable useVariableViscosity for adjoint for time being
374        (there are a number of extensive recomputations)
375      * Initialize certain variables needed for adjoint
376    
377    checkpoint57w_post
378    o pkg/mdsio: use MAX_LEN_FNAM (instead of hard coded 80) for file-names
379                 fix the singleCpuIO RS version of MDSWRITEFIELD
380       and add a WARNING if using globalFiles=T with multi-processors.
381    o write grid-file(s) in only one format (MDS or MNC): default=MNC (if
382      using MNC); can force MDS output by setting writegrid_mnc=F in data.mnc
383    o tracer advection scheme:
384      add DST-2 (=Lax-Wendroff) & 1rst order upwind schemes (the way to get
385       those 2 schemes before, changing GAD_FLUX_LIMITER.h + to recompile,
386       was not very convenient).
387      add implicit version for DST-3 & DST3_Flux_Limit vertical advection;  
388       (further tests needed for the implicit DST & Flux-Limiter schemes).
389    o PTRACERS: added namelist parameter PTRACERS_ref in analogy to tRef
390      and sRef for convenience, handy, when you want to initialize
391      ptracers in a large domain with a constant non-zero value. Also,
392      untangle ptracers_init.F a little.
393    
394    checkpoint57v_post
395    o change dome exp. to use variable viscosity in side-drag terms.
396    o remove all the files from the cfc_offline test since they are now
397      incorporated into tutorial_cfc_offline which has been producing
398      identical results for a few days of testing
399    o add new parameter: sideDragFactor to enable half-slip-side BC
400      and change side-drag S/R to use viscosity from mom_calc_visc
401      (can switch back by setting sideDragFactor=0.); affects results at
402      truncation level; regenerate output for exp.: global_ocean.cs32x10(x3),
403       global_ocean_ebm, global_ocean_pressure, matrix_example & MLAdjust(x5).
404    o vorticity & strain are now computed without masking, to account for
405      no-slip-side BC in variable viscosity calculation ; mask is applied
406      anyway later on, before computing advection/coriolis terms.
407    o modify exp4 to test new obcs support for reading from external files
408      and for passive tracers
409    o fix behavior of ptracers_monitor when monitor output is written to a
410      netcdf-file; still not independent of monitor.F (writes in the same
411      file).
412    o change default value of tRef (put a uniform, meaningful value for ocean
413      & atmos) and initialize sRef (was missing, as Martin mentioned).
414    o Redefine viscC?Leith*.  Change the coefficients of Leith viscosity
415      to be proportional to enstrophy dissipation length.  Thus,
416       viscC?leith?_new=pi*(viscC?leith?_old)^(1/3)
417      This is now consistent with Smagorinsky and with the manual.
418    
419    checkpoint57u_post
420    o OBCS and PTRACERS: add open boundary support for passive tracers
421      - either use homogenous (pseudo) v.Neumann conditions or prescribe
422        OB-values from file; this is not different from the way theta and salinity
423        are treated
424      - however, Orlanski-radiation conditions are not supported, and the model
425        will stop if you use pTracers and Orlanski at the same time.
426      - beefed up the rountine obcs_external_fields_load: now only those open
427        boundary values are overwritten with values from files for which there
428        are really files, otherwise the OB-fields remain untouched. This makes
429        it possible to use different OBs at different ends of the domain (as
430        with EXF)
431    o reduce number of exch calls in shap_filt (s2).
432    o CS-grid: fix divergence contribution to Leith viscosity. Affects (@
433      truncation level) 4/5 MLAdjust test results (11&12 digits match).
434    
435    checkpoint57t_post
436    o test biharmonic viscosity + no-slip with exp: global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
437    o finish adding brackets (coriolis S/R, vecinv) in multi-terms sum to get
438      same truncation, independent of the face number: affects affects several
439      test. exp.: Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
440    o fix bug in mom_v_sidedrag (biharmonic viscosity was counted 2 times);
441      note that biharmonic viscosity + no-slip was not tested in any experiment.
442    o fix bug in non-linear free-surf side-drag ; generate new output for
443      global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & global_ocean_pressure.
444    o make mnc honor the writeBinaryPrec flag for most kinds of output
445    o eesupp: split EEPARAMS into EESIZE/EEPARAMS and add a vector global sum
446    o minor change in averaging W (mom_vi_?_vertshear.F) that affects truncation
447      error; update output from global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
448    o add brackets in multi-terms sum to get same truncation, independent of
449      the face number (manage to get exactly same value of gU,gV at the cs-edge)
450      affects several test. exp. Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice).
451    o Clean, new version of mom_calc_visc.  Adds a new feature, viscAhRemax
452      and viscA4Remax, which allow one to limit the minimum viscosity by specifying
453      a maximum grid-scale Reynolds number.  Also, changes all length calculations
454      in the case of grid anisotropy to geometric mean of dx**2 and dy**2.
455      Suggested values of viscosity parameters found in mom_calc_visc.
456      Many new viscosity diagnostics available.
457    
458    checkpoint57s_post
459    o Add clearing-house for viscosity calculations, mom_calc_visc and
460      correct numerous bugs in LeithD and Smagorinsky discretizations.  
461      mom_calc_visc now allows for Smagorinsky, Leith and LeithD to be
462      used simultaneously, and to be used in mom_vecinv and mom_fluxform.
463      Mom_vecinv can be used with standard viscous calculation (mom_vi_hdissip.F)
464      and with Strain-Tension viscous term calculation (mom_hdissip.F).  
465      The Strain-Tension form is now called with useStrainTensonVisc=.true.
466      ViscAhStrain and viscAhTension are now retired.
467    o diagnostics "VISCAHD" & "VISCA4D" replace "VISCAH" & "VISCA4".
468    o In response to JMC's bug report, genmake2 now ignores any soft-links
469      that it finds in the *current* directory when searching for files.
470      Soft-links found in any other source directories will still work as
471      they did before.
472    o add HAVE_SETRLSTK define and useSETRLSTK flag (eedata) which calls
473      a C routine to unlimit the stack size
474    o mnc-ify pkg/aim snapshot vars
475    o mnc-ify pkg/land as requested by Daniel
476    o various changes to mnc including:
477      - all files use the new "BASENAME[[.ITER].{t|f}NUM].nc" format
478      - output can now be grouped so that all files within a group
479          change the ITER portion of their names in lock-step together
480      - can now read ("global") PER-FACE (in addition to PER-TILE) files
481          and works with both EXCH1 and EXCH2 (but needs more testing)
482      - writing works for all verification test cases w/ g77 on Linux
483    
484    checkpoint57r_post
485    o make MNC variable initialization happen earlier
486    o add diagnostics for (almost) each term of the momentum Eq.
487    o remove SST,SSS,UVEL_k2,VVEL_k2 diagnostics.
488    o move pkg timeave out of pkg-groups "oceanic" & "atmospheric" (pkg/pkg_groups)
489    o remove MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT option ;
490      add "dumpInitAndLast" to replace "nodumps" (and MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT).
491    o move some basic S/R (used elsewhere in the code) from pkg/mdsio to eesupp/src
492      allows to compile without pkg/mdsio (& test successfully hs94.1x64x5)
493    o add MNC output for adjoint of EXF (adexf), SEAICE (adseaice)
494    o add time-dependent SST, SSS control
495    o cost terms in ecco/ modularized (new cost_generic.F)
496    o cost_averages routines are modularized (new cost_averagesgeneric.F)
497    o new infrastructure for seaice model vs. obs misfits in seaice/
498      * driver from the_main_loop.F is seaice_cost_driver.F
499      * first term is AREA vs. SMR observation misfit (ALLOW_SEAICE_COST_SMR_AREA)
500      * gradient check in Exp. 6a of natl_box_adjoint/
501    o natl_box_adjoint input_seaice for Lab. Sea now available online via wget
502      (see README file)
503    
504    checkpoint57q_post
505    o fix initialisation Pb in calc_gw (get NANs in exp5 with g77)
506    o fix annoying months-old bug in mnc/mdsio output for seaice pkg
507      - bug was reported by Jean-Michel and Ian Fenty
508    o fix initialization Pb in AIM-Ocean coupled model (aim_sice2aim.F)
509      update exp. cpl_aim+ocn output.
510    o Implement 4-level checkpointing: AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
511      Needed for high-res. runs with large global files
512      to be able to limit tapelev size
513    o Changed some tests for adjoint:
514      * carbon/ now tests AUTODIFF_2_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
515      * natl_box_adjoint/code_bulk/ tests AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
516      * global_ocean.90x40x15/ back to default 3-level checkpointing
517    o Modifications to enable scripted COMMON to MODULE conversion
518      * verification/OpenAD/code/ has necessary scripts and description;
519      * converts, compiles and runs successfully;
520    
521    checkpoint57p_post
522    o reading of delXfile & delYfile moved from ini_parms.F to ini_grid.F
523    o move ${PKG}_MNC_INIT from ${PKG}_READ_PARAMS to ${PKG}_INIT_FIXED
524      (already the case for some pkgs, including recent MNC_init, e.g. thsice)
525    o call CALC_GW from DYNAMICS (instead of from FORWARD_STEP)
526    o Dissipation & phiHyd gradient are always added to gU,gV in timestep.F
527      (was already the case for dissipation with mom_vecinv,
528       and also the case for grad.PhiHyd when staggered-timeStep)
529      This will allow to put dissipation out-off the AB time-stepping.
530     Unfortunately, affects truncation error. Update output of exp. that "fails"
531      (cg2d matching number) and leave the others for later: front_relax(10),
532      global_ocean_pressure(10),ideal_2D_oce(10),internal_wave(9),lab_sea(12),
533      matrix_example(7!),natl_box(12),plume_on_slope(11),vermix(12x3,11x2).
534    
535    checkpoint57o_post
536    o fix MNC/MDSIO flags in PTRACERS so that (1) it works, and
537      (2) its ready to be documented during the 20050801 DocFest
538    o MNC-ify the gmredi package -- tested and works w/ and w/o mnc
539      for ideal_2D_oce and lab_sea on linux_ia32_g77
540    o set to #undef CTRL_SET_OLD_MAXCVARS_30
541      in global1x1_tot/code_seaice_adj to access indices 32, 33
542      (worth another tag)
543    
544    checkpoint57n_post
545    o adding precip control xx_precip 32
546    o adding swflux control xx_swflux 33
547    o Replacing 10 forcing penalty cost routines by 1 generic.
548    o Implementing partitioning in time-mean and variable adjustment
549      for atmos. state.
550    o Time-mean constant error is now read in data.ecco (instead of hard-coded)
551    o in natl_box_adjoint:
552      * updated exp 1 to 10
553        (but does not have time-mean vs. variable split results yet)
554    o updated global1x1/*_seaice_adj/
555      to incorporate latest changes
556    o enable useSingleCpuIO for mdsio vector routines
557      (applies in particular to tapelev I/O)
558    o removed inefficient K-loop in all active_file*control*.F
559    
560    checkpoint57m_post
561    o re-arrange exp. adjustment.cs-32x32x1 (adjust_nlfs.cs-32x32x1 merge into)
562      and advect_cs (use EXCH-2 and standard cs-32 grid files).
563    o pkg/exch2: filling of face-corner halo regions is optional
564      (ifdef W2_FILL_NULL_REGIONS) and is turned off by default.
565    
566    checkpoint57l_post
567     tag before updating tutorials (pre-release-2)
568    o add cos & sin of grid-direction orientation angle (curvilinear grid only,
569       for output and interpolation of input fields onto model grid)
570    o fix radius in mom_v_metric_cylinder.F (wrong by dy/2).
571       Affects results of exp. rotating_tank ; update output.txt.
572    o pkg/diagnostics: 2 new S/R to fill a diagnostics using a scaling factor
573          and taking the square quantity and/or using a fraction-weight field.
574    o fix aim_diagnostics_init.F mate numbers.
575    o add mnc output capability to diagnostics/diagstat and update
576      our cvsignore files for the ACSII output generated
577    
578    checkpoint57k_post
579    o lab_sea now uses diagnostics package and provides a suite of
580      new EXF diagnostics output.
581    
582    checkpoint57j_post
583    o exf
584      * bug fix in exf_bulkformulae for psimh (spotted by Eliyahu Biton):
585        Bracket missing in eqn. for psimh (eqn. 7 of Large & Pond, 1982);
586        terms -2*ATAN(x) + pi/2 were added to both stable and unstable case.
587      * extended diagnostics output
588        - now includes all EXF variables
589        - hs, hl moved to common block
590        - separate S/R for diagnostics, called after ctrl vector is added
591        - name changed for EXFsw -> EXFswnet, EXFlw -> EXFlwnet
592        - EXFqnet contains true Qnet (i.e. includes qsw)
593      * updated verif. lab_sea, global_with_exf
594      * Rearranging hflux (exf_mapfields -> exf_getforcing)
595        to ensure that diagnostics sees a true EXFqnet
596    o add matlab scripts for CS-grid vectors (in utils/cs_grid)
597    o diagnostics pkg: change pointers so that 1 diagnostic can be used
598      several times with different frequencies.
599    o mnc-ify the thsice package as requested by Daniel Enderton
600      - the monitor--MNC output needs work
601      - many attributes need to be added (most are currently blank)
602    o mnc-ify theaim_v23 package as requested by Daniel Enderton
603      - many attributes need to be added (most are currently blank)
604    o remove "groundAtK1" & "rkFac" (replaced by usingPCoords & -rkSign)
605    o add Sadourny like discretization to the 4th.O vorticity advection scheme
606    o fix bug in rStar code (calc_r_star.F) when used with topo/bathy.
607      update output.txt from: aim.5l_cs (& .thSI), cpl_aim+ocn,
608         fizhi-gridalt-hs and global_ocean.cs32x15 (& .thsice).
609    o fix few little things to avoid floating error with -ftrapuv (ifort v9)
610     (ini_spherical_polar_grid.F, calc_r_star.F, monitor/mon_surfcor.F)
611    
612    checkpoint57i_post
613    o Diagnostics package was changed: diagnostic allocation is now deactivated
614      by setting an empty file name in the namelist (used to be by setting 0 frequency)
615    o momentum advection (VI form) options: activate 4th.O vorticity Coriolis ;
616      add 1rst Order upwind vertical Shear.
617    o add a quick fix for A/B checkpointing in OFFLINE mode
618    o add IGNORE_TIME define and -ignore_time option to genmake2 as an
619      end-run around the C/Fortran linking horror in eesup/src/timers.F
620    o added pkg/runclock: allows user to terminate run based on wall clock
621    o added non-hydrostatic scaling parameter: nh_am2
622    o pkg/my82: futile attempt to make results compiler-independent by adding
623      some "_d 0", etc. no effect.
624    o for mnc output, fill the 'T' coordinate var with myTime and create a
625      separate 'iter' variable for iteration count
626    o pkg/diagnostics:
627      add new capability: output of Global/Regional & per-level statistics ;
628      tested against monitor output (including land & thSIce) on various exp.
629    o make seaice-pkg I/O type flags (MNC/MDS) more standard.
630    
631    checkpoint57h_done
632      tag after changing user customized files (DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h,
633      data.diagnostics, data.gchem, data.ptracers) is done.
634    
635    o pkg/diagnostics: prepare for Global/Regional statistics.
636      add 2nd namelist in data.diagnostics and update DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h
637    o remove "baseTime" (no used) from arg. list of DIFF_BASE_MULTIPLE
638      and rename it: DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE
639    
640    checkpoint57h_post
641    o move tIter0 from data.gchem to PTRACERS_Iter0 in data.ptracers
642    o pkg/diagnostics: change output frequency, now in seconds (instead
643      of Nb of iterations). This requires to change data.diagnostics.
644    checkpoint57h_pre
645    
646    o in mnc, let the user create the output dir if both mnc_outdir_date
647      and mnc_outdir_num are false
648    o add fflags() to pkg/diagnostics which allows one to specify, on a
649      per-file basis, the file precision [default behavior is unchanged]
650    o added diagnostics to pkg/kpp, including computation of mixed layer
651      depth based on a temperature/density criterion
652    o updated verification/natl_box to test the new pkg/kpp diagnostics
653    o bugs fixed (with useAbsVorticity=T & with useJamartMomAdv=T)
654    o test AB-3 code with 4th.Order advection scheme (advect_xy/input.ab3_c4)
655    o fix mnc flags in pkg/seaice so that they are "owned" by seaice,
656      not mnc -- this mistake was found by JMC and is now corrected
657    
658    checkpoint57g_post
659    o add Adams-Bashforth 3rd Order time stepping:
660      - default remains AB-2 (#undef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3)
661      - not yet implemented with NH, CD_Scheme, pTracers, MNC_pickup ...
662    checkpoint57g_pre
663    
664    o make lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax spatially varying
665      (default remains spatially uniform constant based on tau)
666    o added new control variables
667      * init. uVel, vVel, etanN
668      * lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax
669    o separate masks used for ctrl_pack/unpack 'from write_grid' output
670      (suggested by G. Forget)
671    
672    checkpoint57f_post
673    o add parameter "baseTime" = model base time = time at iteration zero
674      new function DIFF_BASE_MULTIPLE (replace DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE) to
675      account for baseTime shift
676    o move Coriolis arrays from PARAMS.h to GRID.h
677    checkpoint57f_pre
678    
679    o mnc-ifying the seaice package
680    o introduced an alternative length scale calculation for use in the limiting
681      maximum viscosity (off by default, see mom_vi_hdissip.F for details)
682    o S/R ptracers_calc_diff: argument list bug for CALL KPP_CALC_DIFF_S
683    o added modified Leith scheme with viscosity proportional to grad(Hdiv)
684      as well as grad(vort3).  Made it compatible with both approximate form
685      for the cubed sphere and full form of these gradients.  Added flag
686      useFullLeith to select between approximate and full form.  
687    o add "d0" in getcon.F to reduce differences between compilers/platforms
688      update output.txt of exp. fizhi-gridalt-hs
689    o change port_rand funtion to allow to set the seed.
690    o fix obscure MNC bug involving conversion between reals and integers
691      - it caused no problems with certain (eg. gcc, ifc) compilers but the
692        new version is now more standards-compliant
693    o adjoint-related modifications
694      * gad_dst3_adv_?: to be able to use advscheme=30 in adjoint
695      * gad_calc_rhs: fool adjoint, revert to advscheme=30 in reverse when using 33
696      * mom_vi_hdissip: to be able to use Leith scheme in adjoint
697    
698    checkpoint57e_post
699    o Adding eddy stress controls a la Ferreira et al.
700    checkpoint57e_pre (actually was tagged: eckpoint57e_pre)
701    
702    o fizhi pkg: fix AtoC and CtoA when called with same input & output array
703      update output.txt of exp. fizhi-gridalt-hs
704    o add more "Z" dimensions and associated coordinate vars to MNC
705    o pkg/exf: added twoDigitYear capability for option useExfYearlyFields
706    o parameter calendarDumps: when set, approximate months (30-31 days) and years
707      (360-372 days) for parameters chkPtFreq, pChkPtFreq, taveFreq, SEAICE_taveFreq,
708      KPP_taveFreq, and freq in pkg/diagnostics are converted to exact calendar
709      months and years.  Requires pkg/cal.
710    o diagnostics: add pickup functionality
711      - off by default for backwards compatibility
712      - current version only uses MDSIO -- MNC will be added
713    o allow to use pkg diagnostics for LAND pkg output & Shapiro Tendencies.
714    o pkg/shap_filt: fix for multi-tiles per face (CS-grid with EXCH2)
715    
716    checkpoint57d_post
717    o pkg/thsice used in the ocean: fix tile Pb related to sIceLoad forcing
718    o modify verification/ideal_2D_oce so that it tests the creation of mnc
719      output from the diagnostics package
720    o temporary fix in EXCH2_UV: add a 3rd call to fix the 24.tiles CS-grid set-up
721    o make genmake2 more portable by using ".$FS" instead of ".f" for more
722      of the test compilations (eg. IBM xlf on Mac OSX w/HFS filesys)
723    o add coordinate variables to the MNC output from the diagnostics package
724    o change MNC-flags default value: true when useMNC=TRUE
725    o add a "readgrid_mnc" flag to MNC and give model/src/ini_curvilinear_grid.F
726      the ability (off by default) to read the grid information using MNC
727    o lab_sea: use LSR_ERROR=1.E-12 for testing ; update output.txt
728    o diagnostics: fix a bug (sub-set of levels); keep full precision when averaging
729    o do snap-shot diagnostics at the middle of the time-interval (instead of
730      at the end).
731    o update exp. aim.5l_cs (use default LAND_OPTIONS.h file) and add
732      new test for AIM with thSIce + slab-ocean
733    o cpl_aim+ocn test: update output (optfile & default GMREDI_OPTIONS.h)
734    o move state variable diagnostics to the beginning of the time step ;
735      (note: still needs some work specially for snap-shot diagnostics)
736      duplicate & replace UVELVVEL diagnostics with UV_VEL_C & UV_VEL_Z
737    
738    checkpoint57c_post
739    o Change testing option (-ieee) to get closer agreement between g77 & ifort
740    o generate new output.txt files on faulks with g77 & the new -ieee option
741    checkpoint57c_pre
742    
743    o add "_d 0" in freeze ; change some "FLOAT" to "DFLOAT" and went back (TAF);
744      update output.txt of exp. global_ocean.90x40x15
745    o fix in ini_eos.F (one "_d 0" was missing): now g77 & ifc give much closer
746      results; update global_ocean_pressure & global_ocean.cs32x15 output.txt
747    o add saltFlux(+File) forcing capability with periodicExternalForcing
748    o allow to use pkg diagnostics for GM-Redi & ThSIce output
749    o diagnostics_fill: fill in up to sNx+1 or sNy+1 (if U,V or Z pt) for mnc.
750    o improvements for the MNC output from DIAGNOSTICS:
751      - correct handling of the unlimitied dimension
752      - all dims now have associated coordinate variables
753      - variables located at U, V, and Corner ("Z") points are now written
754        with the correct horzontal dimensions (eg. 'Xp1', 'Yp1') so that
755        *all* data points are output
756    o added seaice_summary.F and removed obsolete ALLOW_SEAICE's from pkg/seaice
757    o added pkg/seaice/seaice_monitor.F
758    o mdsio_readfield.F can now read files visible only to master MPI process.
759    o pkg/seaice: some test code for ice-modified ocean stress
760    o exf_getffields interpolation defaults to bilinear for all scalar forcing
761      fields (remains bicubic for wind velocity and stress).  This avoids, e.g.,
762      spurious negative numbers for precipitation and humidity.  Will cause
763      some small numerical differences for integrations using pkg/exf/exf_interp.F.
764    o pkg/ctrl/
765      * Add ctrlvec diagnostics in pack/unpack for nondimensional I/O
766        May be enabled via doPackDiag
767      *  introduce z-scaling of
768         + gradient (doZscalePack) and
769         + control (doZscaleUnpack)
770    o pkg/mdsio/
771      * enable useSingleCpuIO for state estimation (ctrl_pack/unpack) mdsio_gl.F
772      * N.B.: leave tiled I/O for tapelev (i.e. mds...vector)
773    
774    checkpoint57b_post
775    o simplify options in diagnostics_fill arguments (remove weird combinations)
776    o fix MNC coordinate variables so that they now contain per-face index
777      values (instead of xC,xG,yC,yG values) when run with EXCH2 since, in
778      general, EXCH2 grids are only aligned to a "local" coordinate system
779    o test diagnostics pkg in dic_example (no output) and ideal_2D_oce (with ouput)
780    o Implement instantaneous output within pkg diagnostics:
781      setting a negative frequency in data.diagnostics produces
782     "snap-shot" output (as opposed to time-average if freq > 0)
783    o move out off EQUIVALENCE all diagnostics that fizhi does not use ;
784      NOTE: change ptracer diagnostics name: use 2 characters to work with
785            more than 9 tracers. Add also diagnostics of advect & diffus flux.
786    o more CF compliance: convert all MNC 'iter' variables to 'T' so that it
787      becomes the coordinate variable for the 'T' dimension
788    o add CF-style coordinate variables to MNC
789      - just a first cut:  numbers are meaningless on the cubesphere and
790        missing along the T axis but otherwise it works!
791    o add surface flux diagnostics: TAUX, TAUY, TFLUX, TRELAX, TICE, SFLUX, SRELAX
792    o pkg/thSIce: read initial state from 6 files ; allow monitor to use MNC.
793    o add diagnostics of advective & diffusive flux for T & S (pTracers coming soon)
794      this is based directly on what the model compute, so that the content of
795      each diagnostics might be affected by switching options (e.g., implicitDiffusion)
796    o small changes for diagnostics (gad_biharm_?.F, arguments of S/R impldiff.F)
797    o clean up build options files for SunOS, in particular
798      - remove -traditional from xmakedepend
799      - change -xarch=v9 to -xarch=native for f77
800      - restore use of make (not gmake)
801      - add CC=gcc if using g77
802    o changes per discussion of AM, JMC, & EH3 today:
803      - move redundant "grid" variables out of "state" -- in preparation of
804        creating proper CF-style coordinate variables and in recognition
805        that any/all grid variables can be easily copied (eg. w/NCO) from
806        the grid files into any of the other NetCDF files
807      - *always* output grid variables with MDSIO (this will eventually be
808        changed)
809      - output MNC grid file if useMNC is true
810    o every instance of _END_MASTER() has been found and replaced with
811      _END_MASTER( myThid ) in order to satisfy certain picky Sun
812      preprocessors
813    o re-arrange diagnostics pkg initialisation:
814     - allow each package to extend the available diagnostics list
815     - add some checking and fix small problems (multi-threaded, ...)
816     - new S/R diagnostics_fill (replace fill_diagnostics):
817       look through the short list of active diag. (instead of the long list)
818       create function DIAGNOSTICS_IS_ON to tell if a diagnostics is active
819    
820    checkpoint57a_post
821    o this set of changes restores TAMC compatibility
822      tested for global_ocean.90x40x15 adjoint on trough
823      (what a pain)
824    
825    checkpoint57a_pre
826    o some modifs in tools/build_options for sunos
827    o call ctrl_pack for ctrl at end for optimcycle=0
828    
829    checkpoint57
830    o add horizontal bi-harmonic viscosity for vertical velocity
831      - new parameter viscA4W (defaults to viscA4)
832      - affects only non-hydrostatic code
833      - to be done: no-slip lateral boundary conditions
834    o switch back to "sflux = sflux - runoff" in exf_getforcing.F
835    o implement Implicit Vertical advection for pTracers
836    o depth convergence accelerator: replace deltaTtracer by dTtracerLev(k)
837      (implemented also for implicit vertical diffusion & advection)
838    o OBCS: extend application of tracer open boundary conditions
839      to a strip beyond the boundary of width Olx/Oly
840    o add call monitor to TAF set of required calls (flow directives)
841      and include in natl_box_adjoint
842    o untangle a few ifdefs related to cost, ctrl, autodiff
843      untangel a few ALLOW_ECCO_OPTIMIZATION
844    o Apply Cooper & Haines representative estimates also at sub-surface (k=Nr)
845      (theta2, salt2 in ecco_cost_weights)
846    
847    checkpoint56c_post
848    o OBCS as control variables
849      - update ctrl_ad_diff.list, obcs_ad_diff.list
850      - remove balance of obcs controls from default
851      - fix index bug nobcs in ctrl_init
852      - fix dummy fields filen in ctrl_pack
853      - add dummy weights for obcs
854    o lsopt: comment out fort.94 output
855    o optim:
856      - remove unnecessary header files
857      - adjusted namelists
858      - add xerbla.F to Makefile
859    o exf:
860      - multiple modifications of exf_check_range
861      - unit change in exf_init_runoff from [m/year] to [m/s]
862    o mdsio:
863      - i/o-vector change debugLevel from debLevA to debLevB
864    
865    checkpoint56b_post
866    o collect all ptracers output in an new routine (PTRACERS_OUTPUT) that
867      is called from DO_THE_MODEL_IO
868      - rename PTRACERS_STATV_WRITE to PTRACERS_WRITE_TIMEAVE
869      - introduce new parameter PTRACERS_dumpFreq (defaults to dumpFreq)
870      - clean up PTRACERS_WRITE_TIMEAVE a little
871    o add another verification experiment that tests both the cfc-pkg and
872      the gchem-pkg with GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING undefined, that is with
873      reactive tendencies treated inline with regular timestepping
874    o testreport previously did a lousy job of comparing small numbers, so
875      we (Ed and Martin) changed the  way the cut-off of 1.e-12 is
876      implemented in the little c-progam tmp_cmpnum.c which is embedded in
877      testreport.
878    o ptracers_monitor: bug fix for MPI
879    
880    checkpoint56a_post
881    o GCHEM: finish reorganizating the package
882      - forward_step calls GCHEM_CALC_TENDENDY, which computes gchemTendency
883        (introduces another 3D-array for each passive tracer, but only if
884        GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING is undefined. For GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING
885        gchemTendency is not needed because the timestep is done separately)
886      - gchemTendency is added to gPtr in GCHEM_ADD_TENDENCY
887      - GCHEM is now---more or less cleanly---separate from PTRACERS
888      - to bo done: handling of surfaceForcingPtr that is needed for KPP not
889        so clear to me how that should be done in a general way.
890    o CFC: improve formatting of output in CFC_ATMOS
891    o PTRACERS:
892      - rename GCHEM_MONITOR to PTRACERS_MONITOR and call it from MONITOR, so
893        that ALL experiments with ptracers enable can be checked. This makes
894        GCHEM_MONITOR obsolete.
895      - include a runtime parameter PTRACERS_monitorFreq that defaults to
896        monitorFreq
897      - set default PTRACERS_write_mdsio to false if PTRACERS_write_mnc is true
898    o add PTRACERS (PTR0[1-5]) to testreport output
899    o exf_check_range:
900      * default changed to .TRUE.
901      * will check values for niter0 if debLevA, every timestep if debLevB
902      * STOP in exf_check_range if 'out of range'
903      * range chosen generous to allow for potential extema
904      TBD: a version with stricter range
905           permitted range would be runtime parameters
906  o GMredi:  o GMredi:
907    - fix ldd97 slope limit ; extend valid domain of Psi-Bolus ;    - fix ldd97 slope limit ; extend valid domain of Psi-Bolus ;
908    - 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.

914      - renamed PTRACERS_SEPARATE_FORCING to GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING;
915        this flag is now only visible within GCHEM-pkg routines.
916      - moved gchem_forcing_int temporarily into ptracers_forcing, this will
917        be replaced by a 3D array that is computed before thermodynamics; for
918        this, the tracer ID iTracer had to be included into the parameter list
919        of ptracers_forcing
920      - set up forward_step to call gchem_forcing, that will replace
921        gchem_forcing_int in ptracers_forcing
