5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o calc_gw: true flux-form, account for horizontal grid spacing.
8      update rotating_tank results, but not plume_on_slope (affected at
9      truncation level, 11 digits).
10    
11    checkpoint58l_post
12    o calc_gw:
13     - take bi,bj loops outside calc_gw to fix Pb with local array KappaRU,V
14     - remove side-drag for now (need to fix it); update plume_on_slope results.
15     - fix for partial-cell & non-uniform dz; update plume_on_slope results.
16    o commit code to make SST/SSS weights spatially variable
17      (based on either variable in-situ or variable initial T/S weights)
18    o pkg/ecco:
19      * commit code to relax deviations of xx_theta, xx_salt to 5*sigma,
20        now based on horizontally varying weights wthetaLev, wsaltLev
21      * cost_averagesflags now returns year indices in addition to day, month
22      * sflux balance is performed on annual basis
23        (sflxumm, sfluxmm2, bal_sfluxmm)
24      * for SSH anomaly, separate more cleanly contrib from T/P, ERS, GFO,
25        including separate counting and multipliers
26    o pkg/rbcs
27      * add all necessary infrastructure for pkg/rbcs levN adjoint checkpointing
28    
29    checkpoint58k_post
30    o testreport:
31     - always build in dir. "build" (if not there, mkdir build instead of building
32       & running in input)
33     - run in dir run (if it exists), in build otherwise.
34     - call prepare_run (if input/prepare_run exists)
35     - run multi-threaded test (with new option: "-mth") if file input/eedata.mth exists.
36    o pkg/exf modifications to interpolation and rotation routines for more
37       reasonable treatment of North Pole singularity: for tracers North Pole
38       value is set to northernmost zonal-mean value, for zonal velocity it is
39       set to zero, and for meridional velocity it is set to northernmost value.
40    o pkg/exf/exf_check_range.F
41     - add tile index to diagnostics and move stop statement to the very
42       end of the routine.
43    o pkg/diagnostics: (diagnostics_main_init.F)
44      define title of isomorphic variables according to the current config.
45    o pkg/thsice with pkg/seaice dynamics:
46    - fix domain of computation (interior only, required for exf) and do exchanges
47    - seaice-dynamics forcing: add atmospheric and seaice loading to SSH gradient
48    o towards a standard way of dealing with multi-threading in MONITOR
49      and ${PKG}_MONITOR (all except ptracers_monitor) subroutines.
50    o Pass variable viscosities (vertical and horizontal, e.g., KPP or Leith)
51       to W momentum equation in nonhydrostatic and quasihydrostatic runs.  
52    o make exf_monitor & seaice_monitor independant of the main (dynamics) monitor.
53    o pkg/seaice: fix SEAICEuseEVPpickup parameter (put it in a commom block)
54    o generic_advdiff: DST advection S/R : use local copy of velocity to compute CFL
55       (problems ? with gradient check in bottom_ctrl_5x5 adjoint test)
56    o tracer advection:
57     - clean-up and simplify calc_common_factors.F
58     - make a local copy of velocity and pass it (as u,v,r_Trans) to DST tracer
59       advection subroutine (but still not used within DST advection S/R)
60    o rename pkg aim_ocn_coupler to atm_ocn_coupler (later on, will be used without aim)
61    
62    checkpoint58j_post
63    o new driver S/R: LOAD_FIELDS_DRIVER to load external forcing fields
64      from file (collects calls previously in FORWARD_STEP)
65    o move call to SEAICE_MODEL from FORWARD_STEP to DO_OCEANIC_PHYS
66    o adjoint store dir. adjusted accordingly
67    o genmake2
68      replace target "ad_taf" by $(EXE_AD) ; add $(EXE_AD) to the make CLEAN list.
69    
70    checkpoint58i_post
71    o pkg/seaice: add parameter that allows to scale/turn off effect of seaice
72      on wind stress (SEAICEstressFactor defaults to 1.)
73    o Total number of Timers is finite (<=40): comment out 2 non-essential one
74      in the_main_loop.F to avoid Pb (e.g., when running fizhi test)
75    o vector_invariant: fix highOrderVorticity(=4.th.Order) advection
76      on CS-grid: no longer loosing mass.
77    o exf & curvilinear-grid: no longer modify longitude xC & xG.
78    o pkg/ggl90: fix sloppy output and fix a bug
79    o pkg/seaice: added SEAICEuseEVPpickup parameter
80      - Set to false in order to start EVP solver with
81        non-EVP pickup files when using SEAICEuseEVP
82      - fix sign error in diffusion in seaice_calc_rhs
83    
84    checkpoint58h_post
85    * Modifications for bottom topography control
86      o replace hFacC by _hFacC at various places
87      o replace ALLOW_HFACC_CONTROL by ALLOW_DEPTH_CONTROL
88      o add non-self-adjoint cg2d_nsa
89      o update autodiff support routines
90      o re-initialise hfac after ctrl_depth_ini
91      o works for 5x5 box, doesnt work for global_ocean.90x40x15
92    * Adding verification for 5x5 box (4-layer) bottom topography control
93    
94    checkpoint58g_post
95    o pkg/diagnostics: implement "periodic averaging diagnostics" (e.g.,
96       used for mean seasonal cycle, mean diurnal cycle); add an example
97       in verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.thsice/data.diagnostics
98    o pkg/ggl90:
99      - add parameter (minimum surface kinetic energy)
100      - fix bug (avoiding division by zero)
101    o couple pkg/thsice to pkg/seaice:
102      - modify advection in seaice to accomodate new scalar fields to be advected
103      - only muliDimAdection scheme work with seaice/thsice
104      - mapping of thsice-variables to seaice-variables, back and forth
105      - does not break the verification experiments, but does not give the
106        desired results either
107    o pkg/seaice
108      - make (default) second order advection a bit less confusing?
109    
110    checkpoint58f_post
111    o couple pkg/thsice and pkg/exf (as a preparation for coupling pkg/thsice
112      to pkg/seaice):
113      - new routines thsice_map_exf and thsice_get_exf provide the interface
114      - add an additional formal parameter to thsice_solve4temp
115    o pkg/exf:
116      - add new fields wspeed, snowprecip (to be able to couple to thsice)
117      - correct Stefan-Boltzmann constant
118      - new parameter for longwave surface emittance
119      - separate some stuff from exf_bulkformulae into new routines  
120        exf_radiation, exf_wind
121      - add new parameters and constants: longwave emissivity for ocean, ice
122        and snow, evaporation parameters over ice
123      - decouple wind/stress computation from ALLOW_BULKFORMULA: always compute
124        either wind from stress or stress from wind
125    o pkg/thSIce:
126    - split thsice_step_fwd.F in 2 S/R: thsice_step_temp.F & thsice_step_fwd.F
127    - put i,j loops inside S/R: THSICE_ALBEDO, THSICE_SOLVE4TEMP, THSICE_EXTEND
128       and THSICE_CALC_THICKN
129    - for now, call to THSICE_GET_BULKF remains inside i,j loops.
130    - add CPP option: ALLOW_DBUG_THSICE and header file THSICE_DEBUG.h
131      to make debugging easier.
132    - affects results (@ truncation level) of global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice: update output
133    o pkg/bulk_force:
134      - clean-up comments and parameters ;
135      - add new Bulk-Formulae from Large and Yeager, 2004, NCAR/TN-460+STR ;
136    o fix bug in aim+thsice albedo: snow & ice thickness arguments were switched;
137      generate new output for test-experiment: aim.5l_cs.thSI
138    o results_ad : rename "output.txt_adm" to "output_adm.txt" and change
139      testreport accordingly
140    
141    checkpoint58e_post
142    o SEAICE_CGRID adjoint done
143    o R_STAR adjoint implemented.
144      * Seems to just work (based on global_ocean.90x40x15/code_ad_nlfs/ )
145      * need to sort out init. of h0facc, etc.
146    o Make pkg/profile fully independent of ecco,cost, etc. stuff
147      to be able to use it in pure forward.
148    
149    checkpoint58d_post
150    o upgrade simple test-experiment to tutorial example:
151     step.1: duplicate the experiment and (step.2) will remove the old copy.
152      tutorial_barotropic_gyre      <- copy of exp0     (R1:barotropic_gyre_in_a_box)
153      tutorial_baroclinic_gyre      <- copy of exp1     (R1:baroclinic_gyre_on_a_sphere)
154      tutorial_global_oce_latlon    <- empty for now    (R1:global_ocean_circulation)
155      tutorial_global_oce_biogeo    <- copy of dic_example
156      tutorial_deep_convection      <- almost like exp5 (R1:nonhydrostatic_deep_convection)
157      tutorial_plume_on_slope       <- copy of plume_on_slope
158      tutorial_tracer_adjsens       <- copy of carbon   (R1:tracer_adjoint_sensitivity)
159      tutorial_global_oce_optim     <- empty for now (David ?)
160      tutorial_global_oce_in_p      <- copy of global_ocean_pressure
161     some tutorials (R1) were already checked-in under tutorial_examples in release1_branch
162    o correct a sign problem in cost_scat.F
163    o obcs and ptracers: fix boundary conditions for advections schemes
164      with larger stencil
165    o thsice adjoint: start
166    o mom_vecinv: add ISOTROPIC_COS_SCALING flags to mom_vi_hdissip for
167      completeness
168    o mom_fluxform: fixing the mutual use of ISOTROPIC_COS_SCALING
169      and COSINEMETH_III, add comments in default CPP_OPTIONS.h
170    o ptracers adjoint:
171      * avoid extensive recomputatations
172      * fix missing re-init. of gptr (missed by TAF)
173    o obcs: add a flag (OBCSprintDiags, defaults is true) that allows
174      me to turn off the excessive output to STDOUT that this package produces
175    o move NH metric terms & 3.D Coriolis S/R to pkg/mom_common
176      and add those terms in Vector-Invariant formulation.
177    o in ctrl pkg, if ALLOW_CAL, use monthly mean controls
178      if the control period (xx_hfluxperiod etc) is 0
179    o in profiles pkg, clean routines and fix details
180    o in ecco pkg, reading ssh data:
181      fix problem in case the model does not start at iter0=0
182    o fix mnc-pickup/restart for ptracers
183    o new package prifiles:
184      code to compute profile-based cost by Gael Forget
185      (modifs in ecco, ctrl, autodiff)
186    o Benign bug fix in initialization (spotted by M. Mazloff) of
187      ctrl_set_globfld_xz.F ctrl_set_globfld_yz.F
188    
189    checkpoint58c_post
190    o adjoint: finish NLFS adjoint and provide reference output in
191      verification/global_ocean.90x40x15/results_ad_nlfs
192    o seaice: add an EVP solver following Hunke and Dukowicz (1997) and the
193      documentation of CICE. Turn on by defining SEAICE_ALLOW_EVP in
194      SEAICE_OPTIONS.h and SEAICEuseEVP=.true. in data.seaice. Works only
195      with SEAICE_CGRID defined.
196    o move calendarDumps from "data" to "data.cal" and clean-up the code
197      with a simple call to pkg/cal S/R: CAL_TIME2WRITE
198    o add useEXF & useCAL flags (for now, set in hard-coded way)
199    o add S/R to compute NH-metrics terms & Coriolis f' in vertical momentum
200      (were missing in NH mode, and wrong in quasihydrostatic mode).
201      waiting for Chris updated version of calc_gw to add those CALLs.
202    o fix bug in quasihydrostatic S/R ;
203      add a test for this option: global_ocean.90x40x15.qshyd
204    o new S/R "SET_PARMS": set parameters that might depend on the use of some pkgs.
205      (called from INITIALISE_FIXED, after INI_PARMS & PACKAGES_READPARAMS)
206    o add on/off flag useOffLine for package OFFLINE
207    o seaice:
208      - modify advection so that it works also on the C-grid
209      - extend loop ranges in seaice_lsr and seaice_dynsolver; fixes
210        problem in multi-tile runs with C-grid
211      - add flags for clipping ice velocities and/or masking solver forcing
212      - fix drag (ocean on ice) formulation and a bug that caused noise in the
213        C-grid solver
214      - added a few comments to seaice_diffusion.F
215      - separate C-grid and B-grid versions more cleanly (UVM and seaiceMaskU/V
216        are now exclusive)
217      - add a new ocean-ice stress coupling method (Hibler and Bryan, 1987) which
218        required re-ordering the code a little:
219       + make DAIRN global variable (defined in SEAICE)
220       + move computation of the viscosities eta and zeta into a new separate
221         routine (because I need to recompute them in seaice_ocean_stress.F)
222    
223    checkpoint58b_post
224    o AIM+thSIce: fix sign of Short-Wave through the Ice ;
225      update output.txt of exp. aim.5l_cs.thSI
226    o various mnc cleanups and improvements:
227      + shrink lookup tables by factor of ~4
228      + better error reporting when running out of lookup space
229      + able to handle longer path/file names (up to 500 chars)
230    o adjoint:
231      - Another overhaul of store dirs. for NLFS to eliminate  "hidden" recomputations.
232      - TBD: "hidden" mom_vecinv recomp. in dynamics
233    o change forcing_In_AB to affects both T,S forcing and Momentum forcing
234     (allow to differentiate between forcing components using new integer flags:
235      momForcingOutAB=1/0 & tracForcingOutAB=1/0)
236     and add new flag to put Dissipation tendency out of Adams-Bashforth.
237    o ecco
238      - enable trend removal from SSH anomaly obs.
239    o adjoint
240      - a fix for PmEpR when #undef EXACT_CONSERV
241      - fix of "hidden" recomp. in thermodynamics (no TAF warnings)
242      - try to fix "hidden" recomp. in forward_step for NLFS
243        (NLFS seems broken sometimes after I checked it in)
244    o seaice:
245     - add c-grid version of the dynamic solver:
246       + three new routines that are the c-grid substitute lsr, dynsolver
247         and ostres
248       + put a few fields that were local to dynsolver into global common
249         blocks, so that I can move the computation of stresses etc into
250         seaice_lsr (saves coding but may break the adjoint).
251     - replace more hardwired parameters by runtime parameters
252     - add ice masks that mask the rhs of the implicit solvers where there
253       is no ice (commented out in seaice_dynsolver, because i am not sure
254       if this works properly), eventually this should replace the clipping
255       of ice velocities in seaice_dynsolver to +/-40cm/s.
256    o remove the BUILD_INFO.h include from CPP_EEOPTIONS.h and explicitly
257      include it only where its needed
258    o move balancing of fluxes before the call of external_forcing_surf
259    o seaice:
260      - correct units of turning angles (now they are really in degrees)
261      - move computation of GWATX/Y out of main routine into dynsolver
262      - initialize GWATX/Y in seaice_init
263    o Apply mask on Fresh-Water flux (needed for SSH forcing).
264      update output.txt of exp. global_ocean_ebm & cpl_aim+ocn (affects cg2d residual)
265    o seaice: add runtime flags for turning angles (default to zero)
266    o Adding runtime parameter to exf/, ctrl/, to remove on-the-fly global mean
267      and trend from exf forcing and ctrl control adjustments
268    o fix variable aliasing in gad_calc_rhs that cannot be handled by TAF
269      (since checkpoint57x_post)
270    o change the default rotation period to 86164.s = the Earth rotation
271    o 1rst implementation of Implicit IGW using the 3-D solver (use3Dsolver=T)
272      and based on a reference stratification. Tested within hs94.cs-32x32x5.
273    o seaice advection: add code for choosing between the default (2nd order
274      central differences) and multiDim advection schemes provided by
275      pkg/generic_advdiff
276    o seaice:
277      - removed all references to SEAICE_GRID.h fields from
278        dynsolver, advect, diffus, lsr, without changing the results of lab_sea
279        (cubed-sphere configuration will change a little)
280      - grid computations in seaice_init are obsolete now.
281      - cleaned up code a little so that is easier to read (hopefully).
282      - added new (better?) discretizations of default advection and diffusion
283        (turn on with SEAICEuseFluxForm)
284      - replace 1 in 3d global fields by kSurface in growth.F
285      
286    checkpoint58a_post
287    o seaice:
288      - bug fix in advect.F
289    o shelfice:
290      - separate shelfice load anomaly from pload (breaks with time
291        dependent forcing), => introduce constant field shelficeLoadAnomaly.
292        Its default is 0., but it may be computed more cleverly from (unknown)
293        t- and s-profiles (tRef, sRef) and actual EOS. For now this has to be
294        done offline. A good approximation of the pressure load anomaly is
295        necessary to avoid large initial adjustment processes underneath
296        deep-reaching shelfice.
297      - small fix in ISOMIP shelfice_thermodynamics
298      - add more sophisticated thermodynamics of Hellmer (1989), this is
299        now the default
300      - give a few constants more intuitive names
301    o add code to balance EmPmP and Qnet at the end of do_ocean_physics. Useful
302      if bulk formulae are used in long integration (especially EmPmR). Turn
303      on with balanceEmPmR = .true. or balanceQnet = .true. in data, PARM01
304      if balancePrintMean, the imbalance that is substracted is printed to
305      STDOUT.
306    o fix bug (typo) in obcs_apply_eta.F
307    o add a new package shelfice which enables us to model the circulation
308      underneath shelf-ice with draughts of hundreds of meters.
309     - works
310     - to do: + include improved thermodynamics
311              + check whether kSurfC (from model/inc/SURFACE.h) can be used
312                instead of new field kTopC
313              + can we use topoFile, Ro_surf and existing code in ini_depth.F
314                instead of new field R_shelfIce and new code in ini_depth.F
315                and ini_mask_etc.F?
316              + adjust vertical mixing schemes?
317    o seaice pkg:
318     - add a cpp-flag to include a simple formula for a salinity dependent
319       freezing point of sea water at the surface
320     - change the contents of SEAICE_TEST_ICE_STRESS_1 so that zonal and
321       meridional stresses are now different (and hopefully correct)
322    o AIM pkg: change threshold on large-scale condensation to conserve Heat.
323       update results of aim.5l_LatLon test ; fix title & units of AIM diagnostics
324       and  change 3 diagnostics names (OSR,OSRCLR,KM -> TSR,TSRCLR,DRAG)
325    o pkg/diagnostics: add options and parameters for regional-statistics
326       diagnostics ; define regions by reading a region-mask from a file
327       (might add other options later)
328    o pkg/bulk_force:
329     - add option and parameters to use AIM surface-flux formulae.
330     - Change loading part: S/R BULKF_FIELDS_LOAD only take care of bulkf_fields ;
331       others forcing fields (defined in PARM05, parameter file "data") are loaded
332       from S/R EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD, as usually (with useBulkforce = T or F).
333     - initialise all bulkf_fields in bulkf_init.F ; do in-lining of exf_bulkcdn.F
334     - use the right EXCH call for uwind,vwind (to work on CS-grid).
335     - re-arrange header files (move parameters from BULKF.h to BULKF_PARAMS.h)
336       and parameters (note: calcWindStress replaces .NOT.readwindstress).
337     - cleaner interface with pkg/thSIce (new S/R THSICE_GET_PRECIP).
338    
339    checkpoint58
340    o add "--embed-source" option to genmake2 which, when the supporting
341      tools can be compiled (as determined by genmake2) will turn on the
342      embed_files package which then embeds the entire MITgcm source code
343      (*.[fFhc] + Makefile) used for the build within the executable
344      - requested by CNH but off by default
345      - adds a paltry <9MB to the mitgcmuv executable in most cases
346      - only writes the output when useEMBEDSRC in eedata is true
347    o clean up 3-dim. relaxation codes:
348      * Fix I/O inconsistency in pkg/rbcs: replace precFloat32 by readBinaryPrec
349      * Remove 3-dim. relaxation code from pkg/exf (now use only pkg/rbcs)
350      * Thanks to Tom Haine for testing!
351    
352    checkpoint57z_post
353    o make CG3D solver compatible with Free-surface at k > 1 (p-coordinate):
354      affects output (@ truncation level) of exp. plume_on_slope ; updated.
355    o fix the pickup behavior for obcs in combination with ptracers
356    o fix a bug in ptracers_external_fields_load
357    o no AB-2 at the first iteration for Gw (consistent with Gu,Gv,Gt,Gs ...)
358      affects results of NH experiments (but all our NH tests have Gw[it=1]==0 !!)
359    o transfered surface NH pressure to eta field (if exactConserv).
360    o gmredi: fix bugs in slope tapering ldd97 (depthZ had the wrong sign)
361         and update lab_sea output.txt file.
362    o completing 3-dim. relaxation code: additional term
363         1/tau*( theta(i,j,k) - thetaStar(i,j,k) )
364      in S/R EXTERNAL_FORCING_T (file external_forcing.F)
365      * At compile time, in "EXF_OPTIONS.h" set
366          #define  ALLOW_CLIMTEMP_RELAXATION
367          #define  ALLOW_CLIMSALT_RELAXATION
368      * At runtime in "data", under &PARM03 set (e.g., units in seconds)
369          tauThetaClimRelax3Dim = 15552000.0,
370          tauSaltClimRelax3Dim  = 15552000.0,
371      * 3 cases:
372          1) Use a constant-in-time 3-dim. field
373          2) Provide 12 3-dim. fields corresponding to Jan., ... , Dec.
374          3) Real-time relax. to time-evolving prescribed field
375    o Adding Laplacian-type smoothness constraint on
376      initial and boundary (forcing) controls (ic, bc)
377      * enable at compile-time via
378        ALLOW_SMOOTH_IC_COST_CONTRIBUTION, ALLOW_SMOOTH_BC_COST_CONTRIBUTION
379      * enable at run-time via mult_smooth_ic = 1, mult_smooth_bc = 1
380      * Absolute scale somewhat unclear so far
381      * no area weighting was included since no other cost term does so far
382    
383    checkpoint57y_post
384    First step for a NLFS adjoint
385    o initially suppress rStar (new flag DISABLE_RSTAR_CODE)
386    o new init. routines for calc_r_star, calc_surf_dr
387    o still need to deal with ini_masks_etc
388    o testreport seemed happy
389    checkpoint57y_pre
390    
391    o obcs: always reset wVel & eta (to zero or prescribe it) at the OBs.
392    o add new package rbcs (for relaxing ptracers at boundaries/depth/surface etc)
393    o add new offset feature to offline pkg (plus minor cleanup)
394    o cfc fixes for final year of integration
395    o clean up GCHEM_OPTIONS.h/DIC_OPTIONS.h (all options should
396      be in GCHEM_OPTIONS).
397    
398    checkpoint57x_post
399    o fix testreport Pb in multiple test experiment.
400    o cleanup our namelist syntax in verification:
401      - make it more F95 standards compliant (some work still needed)
402      - allows the vast majority of our tests to work with gfortran
403    o Non-Hydrostatic:
404     - put all NH variables (formerly in DYNVARS.h & GW.h) in NH_VARS.h
405     - fix exchange calls for CS-grid using the new EXCH_S3D_RL.
406    o Allow to apply AB on T,S rather than on AB(gT,gS):
407     - implemented within #ifdef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3
408     - use the same arrays (gtNm,gsNm) to hold tracer field at previous
409       time-steps (if AB(T,S)) and tendencies (if AB(gT,gS)).
410     - need a "clever" read_pickup to restart from the other AB formulation
411    o move local commom bloc /GlobalLo/ (used for singleCpuIO) in EESUPPORT.h
412    o remove some unused variables (reduces number of compiler warnings)
413    o adjoint
414      * Disable useVariableViscosity for adjoint for time being
415        (there are a number of extensive recomputations)
416      * Initialize certain variables needed for adjoint
417    
418    checkpoint57w_post
419    o pkg/mdsio: use MAX_LEN_FNAM (instead of hard coded 80) for file-names
420                 fix the singleCpuIO RS version of MDSWRITEFIELD
421       and add a WARNING if using globalFiles=T with multi-processors.
422    o write grid-file(s) in only one format (MDS or MNC): default=MNC (if
423      using MNC); can force MDS output by setting writegrid_mnc=F in data.mnc
424    o tracer advection scheme:
425      add DST-2 (=Lax-Wendroff) & 1rst order upwind schemes (the way to get
426       those 2 schemes before, changing GAD_FLUX_LIMITER.h + to recompile,
427       was not very convenient).
428      add implicit version for DST-3 & DST3_Flux_Limit vertical advection;  
429       (further tests needed for the implicit DST & Flux-Limiter schemes).
430    o PTRACERS: added namelist parameter PTRACERS_ref in analogy to tRef
431      and sRef for convenience, handy, when you want to initialize
432      ptracers in a large domain with a constant non-zero value. Also,
433      untangle ptracers_init.F a little.
434    
435    checkpoint57v_post
436    o change dome exp. to use variable viscosity in side-drag terms.
437    o remove all the files from the cfc_offline test since they are now
438      incorporated into tutorial_cfc_offline which has been producing
439      identical results for a few days of testing
440    o add new parameter: sideDragFactor to enable half-slip-side BC
441      and change side-drag S/R to use viscosity from mom_calc_visc
442      (can switch back by setting sideDragFactor=0.); affects results at
443      truncation level; regenerate output for exp.: global_ocean.cs32x10(x3),
444       global_ocean_ebm, global_ocean_pressure, matrix_example & MLAdjust(x5).
445    o vorticity & strain are now computed without masking, to account for
446      no-slip-side BC in variable viscosity calculation ; mask is applied
447      anyway later on, before computing advection/coriolis terms.
448    o modify exp4 to test new obcs support for reading from external files
449      and for passive tracers
450    o fix behavior of ptracers_monitor when monitor output is written to a
451      netcdf-file; still not independent of monitor.F (writes in the same
452      file).
453    o change default value of tRef (put a uniform, meaningful value for ocean
454      & atmos) and initialize sRef (was missing, as Martin mentioned).
455    o Redefine viscC?Leith*.  Change the coefficients of Leith viscosity
456      to be proportional to enstrophy dissipation length.  Thus,
457       viscC?leith?_new=pi*(viscC?leith?_old)^(1/3)
458      This is now consistent with Smagorinsky and with the manual.
459    
460    checkpoint57u_post
461    o OBCS and PTRACERS: add open boundary support for passive tracers
462      - either use homogenous (pseudo) v.Neumann conditions or prescribe
463        OB-values from file; this is not different from the way theta and salinity
464        are treated
465      - however, Orlanski-radiation conditions are not supported, and the model
466        will stop if you use pTracers and Orlanski at the same time.
467      - beefed up the rountine obcs_external_fields_load: now only those open
468        boundary values are overwritten with values from files for which there
469        are really files, otherwise the OB-fields remain untouched. This makes
470        it possible to use different OBs at different ends of the domain (as
471        with EXF)
472    o reduce number of exch calls in shap_filt (s2).
473    o CS-grid: fix divergence contribution to Leith viscosity. Affects (@
474      truncation level) 4/5 MLAdjust test results (11&12 digits match).
475    
476    checkpoint57t_post
477    o test biharmonic viscosity + no-slip with exp: global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
478    o finish adding brackets (coriolis S/R, vecinv) in multi-terms sum to get
479      same truncation, independent of the face number: affects affects several
480      test. exp.: Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
481    o fix bug in mom_v_sidedrag (biharmonic viscosity was counted 2 times);
482      note that biharmonic viscosity + no-slip was not tested in any experiment.
483    o fix bug in non-linear free-surf side-drag ; generate new output for
484      global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & global_ocean_pressure.
485    o make mnc honor the writeBinaryPrec flag for most kinds of output
486    o eesupp: split EEPARAMS into EESIZE/EEPARAMS and add a vector global sum
487    o minor change in averaging W (mom_vi_?_vertshear.F) that affects truncation
488      error; update output from global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
489    o add brackets in multi-terms sum to get same truncation, independent of
490      the face number (manage to get exactly same value of gU,gV at the cs-edge)
491      affects several test. exp. Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice).
492    o Clean, new version of mom_calc_visc.  Adds a new feature, viscAhRemax
493      and viscA4Remax, which allow one to limit the minimum viscosity by specifying
494      a maximum grid-scale Reynolds number.  Also, changes all length calculations
495      in the case of grid anisotropy to geometric mean of dx**2 and dy**2.
496      Suggested values of viscosity parameters found in mom_calc_visc.
497      Many new viscosity diagnostics available.
498    
499    checkpoint57s_post
500    o Add clearing-house for viscosity calculations, mom_calc_visc and
501      correct numerous bugs in LeithD and Smagorinsky discretizations.  
502      mom_calc_visc now allows for Smagorinsky, Leith and LeithD to be
503      used simultaneously, and to be used in mom_vecinv and mom_fluxform.
504      Mom_vecinv can be used with standard viscous calculation (mom_vi_hdissip.F)
505      and with Strain-Tension viscous term calculation (mom_hdissip.F).  
506      The Strain-Tension form is now called with useStrainTensonVisc=.true.
507      ViscAhStrain and viscAhTension are now retired.
508    o diagnostics "VISCAHD" & "VISCA4D" replace "VISCAH" & "VISCA4".
509    o In response to JMC's bug report, genmake2 now ignores any soft-links
510      that it finds in the *current* directory when searching for files.
511      Soft-links found in any other source directories will still work as
512      they did before.
513    o add HAVE_SETRLSTK define and useSETRLSTK flag (eedata) which calls
514      a C routine to unlimit the stack size
515    o mnc-ify pkg/aim snapshot vars
516    o mnc-ify pkg/land as requested by Daniel
517    o various changes to mnc including:
518      - all files use the new "BASENAME[[.ITER].{t|f}NUM].nc" format
519      - output can now be grouped so that all files within a group
520          change the ITER portion of their names in lock-step together
521      - can now read ("global") PER-FACE (in addition to PER-TILE) files
522          and works with both EXCH1 and EXCH2 (but needs more testing)
523      - writing works for all verification test cases w/ g77 on Linux
524    
525    checkpoint57r_post
526    o make MNC variable initialization happen earlier
527    o add diagnostics for (almost) each term of the momentum Eq.
528    o remove SST,SSS,UVEL_k2,VVEL_k2 diagnostics.
529    o move pkg timeave out of pkg-groups "oceanic" & "atmospheric" (pkg/pkg_groups)
530    o remove MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT option ;
531      add "dumpInitAndLast" to replace "nodumps" (and MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT).
532    o move some basic S/R (used elsewhere in the code) from pkg/mdsio to eesupp/src
533      allows to compile without pkg/mdsio (& test successfully hs94.1x64x5)
534    o add MNC output for adjoint of EXF (adexf), SEAICE (adseaice)
535    o add time-dependent SST, SSS control
536    o cost terms in ecco/ modularized (new cost_generic.F)
537    o cost_averages routines are modularized (new cost_averagesgeneric.F)
538    o new infrastructure for seaice model vs. obs misfits in seaice/
539      * driver from the_main_loop.F is seaice_cost_driver.F
540      * first term is AREA vs. SMR observation misfit (ALLOW_SEAICE_COST_SMR_AREA)
541      * gradient check in Exp. 6a of natl_box_adjoint/
542    o natl_box_adjoint input_seaice for Lab. Sea now available online via wget
543      (see README file)
544    
545    checkpoint57q_post
546    o fix initialisation Pb in calc_gw (get NANs in exp5 with g77)
547    o fix annoying months-old bug in mnc/mdsio output for seaice pkg
548      - bug was reported by Jean-Michel and Ian Fenty
549    o fix initialization Pb in AIM-Ocean coupled model (aim_sice2aim.F)
550      update exp. cpl_aim+ocn output.
551    o Implement 4-level checkpointing: AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
552      Needed for high-res. runs with large global files
553      to be able to limit tapelev size
554    o Changed some tests for adjoint:
555      * carbon/ now tests AUTODIFF_2_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
556      * natl_box_adjoint/code_bulk/ tests AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
557      * global_ocean.90x40x15/ back to default 3-level checkpointing
558    o Modifications to enable scripted COMMON to MODULE conversion
559      * verification/OpenAD/code/ has necessary scripts and description;
560      * converts, compiles and runs successfully;
561    
562    checkpoint57p_post
563    o reading of delXfile & delYfile moved from ini_parms.F to ini_grid.F
564    o move ${PKG}_MNC_INIT from ${PKG}_READ_PARAMS to ${PKG}_INIT_FIXED
565      (already the case for some pkgs, including recent MNC_init, e.g. thsice)
566    o call CALC_GW from DYNAMICS (instead of from FORWARD_STEP)
567    o Dissipation & phiHyd gradient are always added to gU,gV in timestep.F
568      (was already the case for dissipation with mom_vecinv,
569       and also the case for grad.PhiHyd when staggered-timeStep)
570      This will allow to put dissipation out-off the AB time-stepping.
571     Unfortunately, affects truncation error. Update output of exp. that "fails"
572      (cg2d matching number) and leave the others for later: front_relax(10),
573      global_ocean_pressure(10),ideal_2D_oce(10),internal_wave(9),lab_sea(12),
574      matrix_example(7!),natl_box(12),plume_on_slope(11),vermix(12x3,11x2).
575    
576    checkpoint57o_post
577    o fix MNC/MDSIO flags in PTRACERS so that (1) it works, and
578      (2) its ready to be documented during the 20050801 DocFest
579    o MNC-ify the gmredi package -- tested and works w/ and w/o mnc
580      for ideal_2D_oce and lab_sea on linux_ia32_g77
581    o set to #undef CTRL_SET_OLD_MAXCVARS_30
582      in global1x1_tot/code_seaice_adj to access indices 32, 33
583      (worth another tag)
584    
585    checkpoint57n_post
586    o adding precip control xx_precip 32
587    o adding swflux control xx_swflux 33
588    o Replacing 10 forcing penalty cost routines by 1 generic.
589    o Implementing partitioning in time-mean and variable adjustment
590      for atmos. state.
591    o Time-mean constant error is now read in data.ecco (instead of hard-coded)
592    o in natl_box_adjoint:
593      * updated exp 1 to 10
594        (but does not have time-mean vs. variable split results yet)
595    o updated global1x1/*_seaice_adj/
596      to incorporate latest changes
597    o enable useSingleCpuIO for mdsio vector routines
598      (applies in particular to tapelev I/O)
599    o removed inefficient K-loop in all active_file*control*.F
600    
601    checkpoint57m_post
602    o re-arrange exp. adjustment.cs-32x32x1 (adjust_nlfs.cs-32x32x1 merge into)
603      and advect_cs (use EXCH-2 and standard cs-32 grid files).
604    o pkg/exch2: filling of face-corner halo regions is optional
605      (ifdef W2_FILL_NULL_REGIONS) and is turned off by default.
606    
607    checkpoint57l_post
608     tag before updating tutorials (pre-release-2)
609    o add cos & sin of grid-direction orientation angle (curvilinear grid only,
610       for output and interpolation of input fields onto model grid)
611    o fix radius in mom_v_metric_cylinder.F (wrong by dy/2).
612       Affects results of exp. rotating_tank ; update output.txt.
613    o pkg/diagnostics: 2 new S/R to fill a diagnostics using a scaling factor
614          and taking the square quantity and/or using a fraction-weight field.
615    o fix aim_diagnostics_init.F mate numbers.
616    o add mnc output capability to diagnostics/diagstat and update
617      our cvsignore files for the ACSII output generated
618    
619    checkpoint57k_post
620    o lab_sea now uses diagnostics package and provides a suite of
621      new EXF diagnostics output.
622    
623    checkpoint57j_post
624    o exf
625      * bug fix in exf_bulkformulae for psimh (spotted by Eliyahu Biton):
626        Bracket missing in eqn. for psimh (eqn. 7 of Large & Pond, 1982);
627        terms -2*ATAN(x) + pi/2 were added to both stable and unstable case.
628      * extended diagnostics output
629        - now includes all EXF variables
630        - hs, hl moved to common block
631        - separate S/R for diagnostics, called after ctrl vector is added
632        - name changed for EXFsw -> EXFswnet, EXFlw -> EXFlwnet
633        - EXFqnet contains true Qnet (i.e. includes qsw)
634      * updated verif. lab_sea, global_with_exf
635      * Rearranging hflux (exf_mapfields -> exf_getforcing)
636        to ensure that diagnostics sees a true EXFqnet
637    o add matlab scripts for CS-grid vectors (in utils/cs_grid)
638    o diagnostics pkg: change pointers so that 1 diagnostic can be used
639      several times with different frequencies.
640    o mnc-ify the thsice package as requested by Daniel Enderton
641      - the monitor--MNC output needs work
642      - many attributes need to be added (most are currently blank)
643    o mnc-ify theaim_v23 package as requested by Daniel Enderton
644      - many attributes need to be added (most are currently blank)
645    o remove "groundAtK1" & "rkFac" (replaced by usingPCoords & -rkSign)
646    o add Sadourny like discretization to the 4th.O vorticity advection scheme
647    o fix bug in rStar code (calc_r_star.F) when used with topo/bathy.
648      update output.txt from: aim.5l_cs (& .thSI), cpl_aim+ocn,
649         fizhi-gridalt-hs and global_ocean.cs32x15 (& .thsice).
650    o fix few little things to avoid floating error with -ftrapuv (ifort v9)
651     (ini_spherical_polar_grid.F, calc_r_star.F, monitor/mon_surfcor.F)
652    
653    checkpoint57i_post
654    o Diagnostics package was changed: diagnostic allocation is now deactivated
655      by setting an empty file name in the namelist (used to be by setting 0 frequency)
656    o momentum advection (VI form) options: activate 4th.O vorticity Coriolis ;
657      add 1rst Order upwind vertical Shear.
658    o add a quick fix for A/B checkpointing in OFFLINE mode
659    o add IGNORE_TIME define and -ignore_time option to genmake2 as an
660      end-run around the C/Fortran linking horror in eesup/src/timers.F
661    o added pkg/runclock: allows user to terminate run based on wall clock
662    o added non-hydrostatic scaling parameter: nh_am2
663    o pkg/my82: futile attempt to make results compiler-independent by adding
664      some "_d 0", etc. no effect.
665    o for mnc output, fill the 'T' coordinate var with myTime and create a
666      separate 'iter' variable for iteration count
667    o pkg/diagnostics:
668      add new capability: output of Global/Regional & per-level statistics ;
669      tested against monitor output (including land & thSIce) on various exp.
670    o make seaice-pkg I/O type flags (MNC/MDS) more standard.
671    
672    checkpoint57h_done
673      tag after changing user customized files (DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h,
674      data.diagnostics, data.gchem, data.ptracers) is done.
675    
676    o pkg/diagnostics: prepare for Global/Regional statistics.
677      add 2nd namelist in data.diagnostics and update DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h
678    o remove "baseTime" (no used) from arg. list of DIFF_BASE_MULTIPLE
679      and rename it: DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE
680    
681    checkpoint57h_post
682    o move tIter0 from data.gchem to PTRACERS_Iter0 in data.ptracers
683    o pkg/diagnostics: change output frequency, now in seconds (instead
684      of Nb of iterations). This requires to change data.diagnostics.
685    checkpoint57h_pre
686    
687    o in mnc, let the user create the output dir if both mnc_outdir_date
688      and mnc_outdir_num are false
689    o add fflags() to pkg/diagnostics which allows one to specify, on a
690      per-file basis, the file precision [default behavior is unchanged]
691    o added diagnostics to pkg/kpp, including computation of mixed layer
692      depth based on a temperature/density criterion
693    o updated verification/natl_box to test the new pkg/kpp diagnostics
694    o bugs fixed (with useAbsVorticity=T & with useJamartMomAdv=T)
695    o test AB-3 code with 4th.Order advection scheme (advect_xy/input.ab3_c4)
696    o fix mnc flags in pkg/seaice so that they are "owned" by seaice,
697      not mnc -- this mistake was found by JMC and is now corrected
698    
699    checkpoint57g_post
700    o add Adams-Bashforth 3rd Order time stepping:
701      - default remains AB-2 (#undef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3)
702      - not yet implemented with NH, CD_Scheme, pTracers, MNC_pickup ...
703    checkpoint57g_pre
704    
705    o make lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax spatially varying
706      (default remains spatially uniform constant based on tau)
707    o added new control variables
708      * init. uVel, vVel, etanN
709      * lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax
710    o separate masks used for ctrl_pack/unpack 'from write_grid' output
711      (suggested by G. Forget)
712    
713    checkpoint57f_post
714    o add parameter "baseTime" = model base time = time at iteration zero
715      new function DIFF_BASE_MULTIPLE (replace DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE) to
716      account for baseTime shift
717    o move Coriolis arrays from PARAMS.h to GRID.h
718    checkpoint57f_pre
719    
720    o mnc-ifying the seaice package
721    o introduced an alternative length scale calculation for use in the limiting
722      maximum viscosity (off by default, see mom_vi_hdissip.F for details)
723    o S/R ptracers_calc_diff: argument list bug for CALL KPP_CALC_DIFF_S
724    o added modified Leith scheme with viscosity proportional to grad(Hdiv)
725      as well as grad(vort3).  Made it compatible with both approximate form
726      for the cubed sphere and full form of these gradients.  Added flag
727      useFullLeith to select between approximate and full form.  
728    o add "d0" in getcon.F to reduce differences between compilers/platforms
729      update output.txt of exp. fizhi-gridalt-hs
730    o change port_rand funtion to allow to set the seed.
731    o fix obscure MNC bug involving conversion between reals and integers
732      - it caused no problems with certain (eg. gcc, ifc) compilers but the
733        new version is now more standards-compliant
734    o adjoint-related modifications
735      * gad_dst3_adv_?: to be able to use advscheme=30 in adjoint
736      * gad_calc_rhs: fool adjoint, revert to advscheme=30 in reverse when using 33
737      * mom_vi_hdissip: to be able to use Leith scheme in adjoint
738    
739    checkpoint57e_post
740    o Adding eddy stress controls a la Ferreira et al.
741    checkpoint57e_pre (actually was tagged: eckpoint57e_pre)
742    
743    o fizhi pkg: fix AtoC and CtoA when called with same input & output array
744      update output.txt of exp. fizhi-gridalt-hs
745    o add more "Z" dimensions and associated coordinate vars to MNC
746    o pkg/exf: added twoDigitYear capability for option useExfYearlyFields
747    o parameter calendarDumps: when set, approximate months (30-31 days) and years
748      (360-372 days) for parameters chkPtFreq, pChkPtFreq, taveFreq, SEAICE_taveFreq,
749      KPP_taveFreq, and freq in pkg/diagnostics are converted to exact calendar
750      months and years.  Requires pkg/cal.
751    o diagnostics: add pickup functionality
752      - off by default for backwards compatibility
753      - current version only uses MDSIO -- MNC will be added
754    o allow to use pkg diagnostics for LAND pkg output & Shapiro Tendencies.
755    o pkg/shap_filt: fix for multi-tiles per face (CS-grid with EXCH2)
756    
757    checkpoint57d_post
758    o pkg/thsice used in the ocean: fix tile Pb related to sIceLoad forcing
759    o modify verification/ideal_2D_oce so that it tests the creation of mnc
760      output from the diagnostics package
761    o temporary fix in EXCH2_UV: add a 3rd call to fix the 24.tiles CS-grid set-up
762    o make genmake2 more portable by using ".$FS" instead of ".f" for more
763      of the test compilations (eg. IBM xlf on Mac OSX w/HFS filesys)
764    o add coordinate variables to the MNC output from the diagnostics package
765    o change MNC-flags default value: true when useMNC=TRUE
766    o add a "readgrid_mnc" flag to MNC and give model/src/ini_curvilinear_grid.F
767      the ability (off by default) to read the grid information using MNC
768    o lab_sea: use LSR_ERROR=1.E-12 for testing ; update output.txt
769    o diagnostics: fix a bug (sub-set of levels); keep full precision when averaging
770    o do snap-shot diagnostics at the middle of the time-interval (instead of
771      at the end).
772    o update exp. aim.5l_cs (use default LAND_OPTIONS.h file) and add
773      new test for AIM with thSIce + slab-ocean
774    o cpl_aim+ocn test: update output (optfile & default GMREDI_OPTIONS.h)
775    o move state variable diagnostics to the beginning of the time step ;
776      (note: still needs some work specially for snap-shot diagnostics)
777      duplicate & replace UVELVVEL diagnostics with UV_VEL_C & UV_VEL_Z
778    
779    checkpoint57c_post
780    o Change testing option (-ieee) to get closer agreement between g77 & ifort
781    o generate new output.txt files on faulks with g77 & the new -ieee option
782    checkpoint57c_pre
783    
784    o add "_d 0" in freeze ; change some "FLOAT" to "DFLOAT" and went back (TAF);
785      update output.txt of exp. global_ocean.90x40x15
786    o fix in ini_eos.F (one "_d 0" was missing): now g77 & ifc give much closer
787      results; update global_ocean_pressure & global_ocean.cs32x15 output.txt
788    o add saltFlux(+File) forcing capability with periodicExternalForcing
789    o allow to use pkg diagnostics for GM-Redi & ThSIce output
790    o diagnostics_fill: fill in up to sNx+1 or sNy+1 (if U,V or Z pt) for mnc.
791    o improvements for the MNC output from DIAGNOSTICS:
792      - correct handling of the unlimitied dimension
793      - all dims now have associated coordinate variables
794      - variables located at U, V, and Corner ("Z") points are now written
795        with the correct horzontal dimensions (eg. 'Xp1', 'Yp1') so that
796        *all* data points are output
797    o added seaice_summary.F and removed obsolete ALLOW_SEAICE's from pkg/seaice
798    o added pkg/seaice/seaice_monitor.F
799    o mdsio_readfield.F can now read files visible only to master MPI process.
800    o pkg/seaice: some test code for ice-modified ocean stress
801    o exf_getffields interpolation defaults to bilinear for all scalar forcing
802      fields (remains bicubic for wind velocity and stress).  This avoids, e.g.,
803      spurious negative numbers for precipitation and humidity.  Will cause
804      some small numerical differences for integrations using pkg/exf/exf_interp.F.
805    o pkg/ctrl/
806      * Add ctrlvec diagnostics in pack/unpack for nondimensional I/O
807        May be enabled via doPackDiag
808      *  introduce z-scaling of
809         + gradient (doZscalePack) and
810         + control (doZscaleUnpack)
811    o pkg/mdsio/
812      * enable useSingleCpuIO for state estimation (ctrl_pack/unpack) mdsio_gl.F
813      * N.B.: leave tiled I/O for tapelev (i.e. mds...vector)
814    
815    checkpoint57b_post
816    o simplify options in diagnostics_fill arguments (remove weird combinations)
817    o fix MNC coordinate variables so that they now contain per-face index
818      values (instead of xC,xG,yC,yG values) when run with EXCH2 since, in
819      general, EXCH2 grids are only aligned to a "local" coordinate system
820    o test diagnostics pkg in dic_example (no output) and ideal_2D_oce (with ouput)
821    o Implement instantaneous output within pkg diagnostics:
822      setting a negative frequency in data.diagnostics produces
823     "snap-shot" output (as opposed to time-average if freq > 0)
824    o move out off EQUIVALENCE all diagnostics that fizhi does not use ;
825      NOTE: change ptracer diagnostics name: use 2 characters to work with
826            more than 9 tracers. Add also diagnostics of advect & diffus flux.
827    o more CF compliance: convert all MNC 'iter' variables to 'T' so that it
828      becomes the coordinate variable for the 'T' dimension
829    o add CF-style coordinate variables to MNC
830      - just a first cut:  numbers are meaningless on the cubesphere and
831        missing along the T axis but otherwise it works!
832    o add surface flux diagnostics: TAUX, TAUY, TFLUX, TRELAX, TICE, SFLUX, SRELAX
833    o pkg/thSIce: read initial state from 6 files ; allow monitor to use MNC.
834    o add diagnostics of advective & diffusive flux for T & S (pTracers coming soon)
835      this is based directly on what the model compute, so that the content of
836      each diagnostics might be affected by switching options (e.g., implicitDiffusion)
837    o small changes for diagnostics (gad_biharm_?.F, arguments of S/R impldiff.F)
838    o clean up build options files for SunOS, in particular
839      - remove -traditional from xmakedepend
840      - change -xarch=v9 to -xarch=native for f77
841      - restore use of make (not gmake)
842      - add CC=gcc if using g77
843    o changes per discussion of AM, JMC, & EH3 today:
844      - move redundant "grid" variables out of "state" -- in preparation of
845        creating proper CF-style coordinate variables and in recognition
846        that any/all grid variables can be easily copied (eg. w/NCO) from
847        the grid files into any of the other NetCDF files
848      - *always* output grid variables with MDSIO (this will eventually be
849        changed)
850      - output MNC grid file if useMNC is true
851    o every instance of _END_MASTER() has been found and replaced with
852      _END_MASTER( myThid ) in order to satisfy certain picky Sun
853      preprocessors
854    o re-arrange diagnostics pkg initialisation:
855     - allow each package to extend the available diagnostics list
856     - add some checking and fix small problems (multi-threaded, ...)
857     - new S/R diagnostics_fill (replace fill_diagnostics):
858       look through the short list of active diag. (instead of the long list)
859       create function DIAGNOSTICS_IS_ON to tell if a diagnostics is active
860    
861    checkpoint57a_post
862    o this set of changes restores TAMC compatibility
863      tested for global_ocean.90x40x15 adjoint on trough
864      (what a pain)
865    
866    checkpoint57a_pre
867    o some modifs in tools/build_options for sunos
868    o call ctrl_pack for ctrl at end for optimcycle=0
869    
870    checkpoint57
871    o add horizontal bi-harmonic viscosity for vertical velocity
872      - new parameter viscA4W (defaults to viscA4)
873      - affects only non-hydrostatic code
874      - to be done: no-slip lateral boundary conditions
875    o switch back to "sflux = sflux - runoff" in exf_getforcing.F
876    o implement Implicit Vertical advection for pTracers
877    o depth convergence accelerator: replace deltaTtracer by dTtracerLev(k)
878      (implemented also for implicit vertical diffusion & advection)
879    o OBCS: extend application of tracer open boundary conditions
880      to a strip beyond the boundary of width Olx/Oly
881    o add call monitor to TAF set of required calls (flow directives)
882      and include in natl_box_adjoint
883    o untangle a few ifdefs related to cost, ctrl, autodiff
884      untangel a few ALLOW_ECCO_OPTIMIZATION
885    o Apply Cooper & Haines representative estimates also at sub-surface (k=Nr)
886      (theta2, salt2 in ecco_cost_weights)
887    
888    checkpoint56c_post
889    o OBCS as control variables
890      - update ctrl_ad_diff.list, obcs_ad_diff.list
891      - remove balance of obcs controls from default
892      - fix index bug nobcs in ctrl_init
893      - fix dummy fields filen in ctrl_pack
894      - add dummy weights for obcs
895    o lsopt: comment out fort.94 output
896    o optim:
897      - remove unnecessary header files
898      - adjusted namelists
899      - add xerbla.F to Makefile
900    o exf:
901      - multiple modifications of exf_check_range
902      - unit change in exf_init_runoff from [m/year] to [m/s]
903    o mdsio:
904      - i/o-vector change debugLevel from debLevA to debLevB
905    
906    checkpoint56b_post
907    o collect all ptracers output in an new routine (PTRACERS_OUTPUT) that
908      is called from DO_THE_MODEL_IO
909      - rename PTRACERS_STATV_WRITE to PTRACERS_WRITE_TIMEAVE
910      - introduce new parameter PTRACERS_dumpFreq (defaults to dumpFreq)
911      - clean up PTRACERS_WRITE_TIMEAVE a little
912    o add another verification experiment that tests both the cfc-pkg and
913      the gchem-pkg with GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING undefined, that is with
914      reactive tendencies treated inline with regular timestepping
915    o testreport previously did a lousy job of comparing small numbers, so
916      we (Ed and Martin) changed the  way the cut-off of 1.e-12 is
917      implemented in the little c-progam tmp_cmpnum.c which is embedded in
918      testreport.
919    o ptracers_monitor: bug fix for MPI
920    
921    checkpoint56a_post
922    o GCHEM: finish reorganizating the package
923      - forward_step calls GCHEM_CALC_TENDENDY, which computes gchemTendency
924        (introduces another 3D-array for each passive tracer, but only if
925        GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING is undefined. For GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING
926        gchemTendency is not needed because the timestep is done separately)
927      - gchemTendency is added to gPtr in GCHEM_ADD_TENDENCY
928      - GCHEM is now---more or less cleanly---separate from PTRACERS
929      - to bo done: handling of surfaceForcingPtr that is needed for KPP not
930        so clear to me how that should be done in a general way.
931    o CFC: improve formatting of output in CFC_ATMOS
932    o PTRACERS:
933      - rename GCHEM_MONITOR to PTRACERS_MONITOR and call it from MONITOR, so
934        that ALL experiments with ptracers enable can be checked. This makes
935        GCHEM_MONITOR obsolete.
936      - include a runtime parameter PTRACERS_monitorFreq that defaults to
937        monitorFreq
938      - set default PTRACERS_write_mdsio to false if PTRACERS_write_mnc is true
939    o add PTRACERS (PTR0[1-5]) to testreport output
940    o exf_check_range:
941      * default changed to .TRUE.
942      * will check values for niter0 if debLevA, every timestep if debLevB
943      * STOP in exf_check_range if 'out of range'
944      * range chosen generous to allow for potential extema
945      TBD: a version with stricter range
946           permitted range would be runtime parameters
947  o GMredi:  o GMredi:
948    - fix ldd97 slope limit ; extend valid domain of Psi-Bolus ;    - fix ldd97 slope limit ; extend valid domain of Psi-Bolus ;
949    - 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.

955      - renamed PTRACERS_SEPARATE_FORCING to GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING;
956        this flag is now only visible within GCHEM-pkg routines.
957      - moved gchem_forcing_int temporarily into ptracers_forcing, this will
958        be replaced by a 3D array that is computed before thermodynamics; for
959        this, the tracer ID iTracer had to be included into the parameter list
960        of ptracers_forcing
961      - set up forward_step to call gchem_forcing, that will replace
962        gchem_forcing_int in ptracers_forcing
