4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o use standard version of PTRACERS_INI_VARIA in tutorial_tracer_adjsens
8      (identical results) and the standard version of EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD
9      in natl_box (affects results @ truncation level: update output.txt)
10    o multi-threading and IO:
11      - replace some call to MDSIO S/R by the corresponding READ/WRITE_FLD S/R.
12      - remove most of BEGIN_MASTER/ END_MASTER around READ/WRITE_FLD S/R calls
13        (needed to work with SingleCpuIO): tested in all verif. exp.
14    o GAD: use simpler DST3 formulation as default (old version left within #ifdef)
15      affects the results (but none of the verification test uses this scheme).
16    o Adding some pkg/diagnostics capability to pkg/seaice
17      (will certainly be subject to changes)
18    
19    checkpoint58q_post
20    o added CPP_EEOPTIONS.h flag DISABLE_MPI_READY_TO_RECEIVE.  Speeds up
21      1/6-deg Southern Ocean configuration by 8% on IBM Datastar and
22      high_res_cube configuration by 4% on Columbia.
23    o clean-up multi-threaded problems (reported by debugger tcheck on ACES);
24      add (in global_with_exf/code) a version of EXF_INTERP_READ without
25      dynamical allocation (seems to work in multi-threaded).
26    o new function "MASTER_CPU_IO" (=T if master thread & master CPU, if using
27      single CPU io) so that TAF does not have to see EESUPPORT.h
28    o pkg/seaice: implement sea-ice loading (when using RealFreshWaterFlux)
29    
30    checkpoint58p_post
31    o obcs: stop if obcs is used with useCDscheme = .true.
32    o shelfice:
33     - fix a sign error so that no slip at shelfice interface works
34     - remove stop for combination non-hydrostatic code and shelfice. That does
35       not mean, that the results are correct, but at least they are numerically
36       stable
37    o diagnoctics: modify UVELPHI and VVELPHI to include hfac (i.e. mass-weighted)
38    o added adjoint exch routined for all exch*3d* routines
39      and updated flow directives
40    
41    checkpoint58o_post
42    o replace calls to EXCH_Z & EXCH_UV_AGRID: use the new _3D_ version ;
43      remove old subroutines (_XY_ & _XYZ_); update the adjoint version.
44    o change controling S/R for writing pickup file (new S/R do_write_pickup)
45      and clean-up reading/writing of pickup files.
46    o fix local version of read/write pickup (NH part) in rotating_tank/code
47    o simplify EXCH interface:
48     - change _XYZ_ interface to _3D_ subroutine (with 3rd dim in argument list)
49     - not often used EXCH S/R (exch_z, exch_uv_agrid): keep only the _3D_ version
50    o added the regrid package
51    o shelfice:
52     - add a simple boundary layer scheme to reduce noise
53     - fix the indexing in shelfice_u/v_drag so that there will be actually drag
54    
55    checkpoint58n_post
56    o fix globalArea multi-threaded calculation: need to apply GLOBAL_SUM to
57       local variable (not in common block).
58    o lot of small changes for multi-threaded. Most tests (using OMP & ifort) pass.
59      - still problems with pkgs: mnc, exp2, dic, cal, exf (and probably more);
60      - still BEGIN_MASTER/END_MASTER to remove around READ/WRITE_FLD S/R calls
61        to work with SingleCpuIO.
62    o add "_d 0" to real constant of pkg/cfc subroutines ;
63       update exp. cfc_exemple & tutorial_cfc_offline output files.
64    o multi-threading and IO:
65      - all threads call READ_FLD S/R (needed if using SingleCpuIO):
66        (no BEGIN_MASTER/ END_MASTER around the call, but inside MDSIO S/R.
67      - barrier before and after reading.
68      - stop if other than master is calling MDS_WRITELOCAL (if #undef IO_THREAD_SAFE)
69      - avoid using MDS_WRITELOCAL for LAND pkg output.
70      - new S/R AIM_WRITE_PHYS (replaces AIM_WRITE_LOCAL) to write AIM physics
71        common-block variables ; Allows multi-threading with master-thread IO.
72    o change default MAX_NO_THREADS from 32 to 4 ;
73      and stop cleanly when MAX_NO_THREADS is too small.
74    o add S/R BAR_CHECK to check multi-threaded barrier synchronization
75    
76    checkpoint58m_post
77    o add a Non-Hydroatatic test (with 3-D Coriolis, NHMTerms, biharmonic Visc.
78       and side-drag) on CS-grid : global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
79    o make "tutorial_global_oce_latlon" from standard "global_ocean.90x40x15" exp.
80       keep global_ocean.90x40x15 (for AD testing) with former secondary test
81       (".qshyd") as the main test (mv output.qshyd.txt to output.txt)
82    o CVS modules: update MITgcm_verif_basic; remove MITgcm_verif_ocean & _verif_atmos;
83        add MITgcm_tutorials (= code + all the tutorials)
84    o ecco, option to compute cost for total ssh (mean+anom)
85    o consistent with addition of ptracer and ssh in pkg/profiles
86    o profiles: adding ptracer and ssh
87    o testreport: change multi-test output-file name
88      (from output.txt.{name} to output.{name}.txt)
89    o profiles: now ok for mutli-tiles case
90    o seaice: add 4 parameters for different advection schemes for area,
91      (effective) seaice thickness, enthalphy, and snow height. Their default
92      is the standard parameter SEAICEadvScheme
93    o calc_gw:
94     - add cosFacU in zonal viscous flux (harmonic.visc.).
95     - put back side-drag (call new S/R MOM_W_SIDEDRAG) and output.txt.
96       of tutorial_plume_on_slope.
97    o obcs_calc.F : fix index Pb in OBSeta & OBNeta (Thanks to Gianmaria).
98    o calc_gw: true flux-form, account for horizontal grid spacing.
99      update rotating_tank results, but not plume_on_slope (affected at
100      truncation level, 11 digits).
101    
102    checkpoint58l_post
103    o calc_gw:
104     - take bi,bj loops outside calc_gw to fix Pb with local array KappaRU,V
105     - remove side-drag for now (need to fix it); update plume_on_slope results.
106     - fix for partial-cell & non-uniform dz; update plume_on_slope results.
107    o commit code to make SST/SSS weights spatially variable
108      (based on either variable in-situ or variable initial T/S weights)
109    o pkg/ecco:
110      * commit code to relax deviations of xx_theta, xx_salt to 5*sigma,
111        now based on horizontally varying weights wthetaLev, wsaltLev
112      * cost_averagesflags now returns year indices in addition to day, month
113      * sflux balance is performed on annual basis
114        (sflxumm, sfluxmm2, bal_sfluxmm)
115      * for SSH anomaly, separate more cleanly contrib from T/P, ERS, GFO,
116        including separate counting and multipliers
117    o pkg/rbcs
118      * add all necessary infrastructure for pkg/rbcs levN adjoint checkpointing
119    
120    checkpoint58k_post
121    o testreport:
122     - always build in dir. "build" (if not there, mkdir build instead of building
123       & running in input)
124     - run in dir run (if it exists), in build otherwise.
125     - call prepare_run (if input/prepare_run exists)
126     - run multi-threaded test (with new option: "-mth") if file input/eedata.mth exists.
127    o pkg/exf modifications to interpolation and rotation routines for more
128       reasonable treatment of North Pole singularity: for tracers North Pole
129       value is set to northernmost zonal-mean value, for zonal velocity it is
130       set to zero, and for meridional velocity it is set to northernmost value.
131    o pkg/exf/exf_check_range.F
132     - add tile index to diagnostics and move stop statement to the very
133       end of the routine.
134    o pkg/diagnostics: (diagnostics_main_init.F)
135      define title of isomorphic variables according to the current config.
136    o pkg/thsice with pkg/seaice dynamics:
137    - fix domain of computation (interior only, required for exf) and do exchanges
138    - seaice-dynamics forcing: add atmospheric and seaice loading to SSH gradient
139    o towards a standard way of dealing with multi-threading in MONITOR
140      and ${PKG}_MONITOR (all except ptracers_monitor) subroutines.
141    o Pass variable viscosities (vertical and horizontal, e.g., KPP or Leith)
142       to W momentum equation in nonhydrostatic and quasihydrostatic runs.  
143    o make exf_monitor & seaice_monitor independant of the main (dynamics) monitor.
144    o pkg/seaice: fix SEAICEuseEVPpickup parameter (put it in a commom block)
145    o generic_advdiff: DST advection S/R : use local copy of velocity to compute CFL
146       (problems ? with gradient check in bottom_ctrl_5x5 adjoint test)
147    o tracer advection:
148     - clean-up and simplify calc_common_factors.F
149     - make a local copy of velocity and pass it (as u,v,r_Trans) to DST tracer
150       advection subroutine (but still not used within DST advection S/R)
151    o rename pkg aim_ocn_coupler to atm_ocn_coupler (later on, will be used without aim)
152    
153    checkpoint58j_post
154    o new driver S/R: LOAD_FIELDS_DRIVER to load external forcing fields
155      from file (collects calls previously in FORWARD_STEP)
156    o move call to SEAICE_MODEL from FORWARD_STEP to DO_OCEANIC_PHYS
157    o adjoint store dir. adjusted accordingly
158    o genmake2
159      replace target "ad_taf" by $(EXE_AD) ; add $(EXE_AD) to the make CLEAN list.
160    
161    checkpoint58i_post
162    o pkg/seaice: add parameter that allows to scale/turn off effect of seaice
163      on wind stress (SEAICEstressFactor defaults to 1.)
164    o Total number of Timers is finite (<=40): comment out 2 non-essential one
165      in the_main_loop.F to avoid Pb (e.g., when running fizhi test)
166    o vector_invariant: fix highOrderVorticity(=4.th.Order) advection
167      on CS-grid: no longer loosing mass.
168    o exf & curvilinear-grid: no longer modify longitude xC & xG.
169    o pkg/ggl90: fix sloppy output and fix a bug
170    o pkg/seaice: added SEAICEuseEVPpickup parameter
171      - Set to false in order to start EVP solver with
172        non-EVP pickup files when using SEAICEuseEVP
173      - fix sign error in diffusion in seaice_calc_rhs
174    
175    checkpoint58h_post
176    * Modifications for bottom topography control
177      o replace hFacC by _hFacC at various places
178      o replace ALLOW_HFACC_CONTROL by ALLOW_DEPTH_CONTROL
179      o add non-self-adjoint cg2d_nsa
180      o update autodiff support routines
181      o re-initialise hfac after ctrl_depth_ini
182      o works for 5x5 box, doesnt work for global_ocean.90x40x15
183    * Adding verification for 5x5 box (4-layer) bottom topography control
184    
185    checkpoint58g_post
186    o pkg/diagnostics: implement "periodic averaging diagnostics" (e.g.,
187       used for mean seasonal cycle, mean diurnal cycle); add an example
188       in verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.thsice/data.diagnostics
189    o pkg/ggl90:
190      - add parameter (minimum surface kinetic energy)
191      - fix bug (avoiding division by zero)
192    o couple pkg/thsice to pkg/seaice:
193      - modify advection in seaice to accomodate new scalar fields to be advected
194      - only muliDimAdection scheme work with seaice/thsice
195      - mapping of thsice-variables to seaice-variables, back and forth
196      - does not break the verification experiments, but does not give the
197        desired results either
198    o pkg/seaice
199      - make (default) second order advection a bit less confusing?
200    
201    checkpoint58f_post
202    o couple pkg/thsice and pkg/exf (as a preparation for coupling pkg/thsice
203      to pkg/seaice):
204      - new routines thsice_map_exf and thsice_get_exf provide the interface
205      - add an additional formal parameter to thsice_solve4temp
206    o pkg/exf:
207      - add new fields wspeed, snowprecip (to be able to couple to thsice)
208      - correct Stefan-Boltzmann constant
209      - new parameter for longwave surface emittance
210      - separate some stuff from exf_bulkformulae into new routines  
211        exf_radiation, exf_wind
212      - add new parameters and constants: longwave emissivity for ocean, ice
213        and snow, evaporation parameters over ice
214      - decouple wind/stress computation from ALLOW_BULKFORMULA: always compute
215        either wind from stress or stress from wind
216    o pkg/thSIce:
217    - split thsice_step_fwd.F in 2 S/R: thsice_step_temp.F & thsice_step_fwd.F
218    - put i,j loops inside S/R: THSICE_ALBEDO, THSICE_SOLVE4TEMP, THSICE_EXTEND
219       and THSICE_CALC_THICKN
220    - for now, call to THSICE_GET_BULKF remains inside i,j loops.
221    - add CPP option: ALLOW_DBUG_THSICE and header file THSICE_DEBUG.h
222      to make debugging easier.
223    - affects results (@ truncation level) of global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice: update output
224    o pkg/bulk_force:
225      - clean-up comments and parameters ;
226      - add new Bulk-Formulae from Large and Yeager, 2004, NCAR/TN-460+STR ;
227    o fix bug in aim+thsice albedo: snow & ice thickness arguments were switched;
228      generate new output for test-experiment: aim.5l_cs.thSI
229    o results_ad : rename "output.txt_adm" to "output_adm.txt" and change
230      testreport accordingly
231    
232    checkpoint58e_post
233    o SEAICE_CGRID adjoint done
234    o R_STAR adjoint implemented.
235      * Seems to just work (based on global_ocean.90x40x15/code_ad_nlfs/ )
236      * need to sort out init. of h0facc, etc.
237    o Make pkg/profile fully independent of ecco,cost, etc. stuff
238      to be able to use it in pure forward.
239    
240    checkpoint58d_post
241    o upgrade simple test-experiment to tutorial example:
242     step.1: duplicate the experiment and (step.2) will remove the old copy.
243      tutorial_barotropic_gyre      <- copy of exp0     (R1:barotropic_gyre_in_a_box)
244      tutorial_baroclinic_gyre      <- copy of exp1     (R1:baroclinic_gyre_on_a_sphere)
245      tutorial_global_oce_latlon    <- empty for now    (R1:global_ocean_circulation)
246      tutorial_global_oce_biogeo    <- copy of dic_example
247      tutorial_deep_convection      <- almost like exp5 (R1:nonhydrostatic_deep_convection)
248      tutorial_plume_on_slope       <- copy of plume_on_slope
249      tutorial_tracer_adjsens       <- copy of carbon   (R1:tracer_adjoint_sensitivity)
250      tutorial_global_oce_optim     <- empty for now (David ?)
251      tutorial_global_oce_in_p      <- copy of global_ocean_pressure
252     some tutorials (R1) were already checked-in under tutorial_examples in release1_branch
253    o correct a sign problem in cost_scat.F
254    o obcs and ptracers: fix boundary conditions for advections schemes
255      with larger stencil
256    o thsice adjoint: start
257    o mom_vecinv: add ISOTROPIC_COS_SCALING flags to mom_vi_hdissip for
258      completeness
259    o mom_fluxform: fixing the mutual use of ISOTROPIC_COS_SCALING
260      and COSINEMETH_III, add comments in default CPP_OPTIONS.h
261    o ptracers adjoint:
262      * avoid extensive recomputatations
263      * fix missing re-init. of gptr (missed by TAF)
264    o obcs: add a flag (OBCSprintDiags, defaults is true) that allows
265      me to turn off the excessive output to STDOUT that this package produces
266    o move NH metric terms & 3.D Coriolis S/R to pkg/mom_common
267      and add those terms in Vector-Invariant formulation.
268    o in ctrl pkg, if ALLOW_CAL, use monthly mean controls
269      if the control period (xx_hfluxperiod etc) is 0
270    o in profiles pkg, clean routines and fix details
271    o in ecco pkg, reading ssh data:
272      fix problem in case the model does not start at iter0=0
273    o fix mnc-pickup/restart for ptracers
274    o new package prifiles:
275      code to compute profile-based cost by Gael Forget
276      (modifs in ecco, ctrl, autodiff)
277    o Benign bug fix in initialization (spotted by M. Mazloff) of
278      ctrl_set_globfld_xz.F ctrl_set_globfld_yz.F
279    
280    checkpoint58c_post
281    o adjoint: finish NLFS adjoint and provide reference output in
282      verification/global_ocean.90x40x15/results_ad_nlfs
283    o seaice: add an EVP solver following Hunke and Dukowicz (1997) and the
284      documentation of CICE. Turn on by defining SEAICE_ALLOW_EVP in
285      SEAICE_OPTIONS.h and SEAICEuseEVP=.true. in data.seaice. Works only
286      with SEAICE_CGRID defined.
287    o move calendarDumps from "data" to "data.cal" and clean-up the code
288      with a simple call to pkg/cal S/R: CAL_TIME2WRITE
289    o add useEXF & useCAL flags (for now, set in hard-coded way)
290    o add S/R to compute NH-metrics terms & Coriolis f' in vertical momentum
291      (were missing in NH mode, and wrong in quasihydrostatic mode).
292      waiting for Chris updated version of calc_gw to add those CALLs.
293    o fix bug in quasihydrostatic S/R ;
294      add a test for this option: global_ocean.90x40x15.qshyd
295    o new S/R "SET_PARMS": set parameters that might depend on the use of some pkgs.
296      (called from INITIALISE_FIXED, after INI_PARMS & PACKAGES_READPARAMS)
297    o add on/off flag useOffLine for package OFFLINE
298    o seaice:
299      - modify advection so that it works also on the C-grid
300      - extend loop ranges in seaice_lsr and seaice_dynsolver; fixes
301        problem in multi-tile runs with C-grid
302      - add flags for clipping ice velocities and/or masking solver forcing
303      - fix drag (ocean on ice) formulation and a bug that caused noise in the
304        C-grid solver
305      - added a few comments to seaice_diffusion.F
306      - separate C-grid and B-grid versions more cleanly (UVM and seaiceMaskU/V
307        are now exclusive)
308      - add a new ocean-ice stress coupling method (Hibler and Bryan, 1987) which
309        required re-ordering the code a little:
310       + make DAIRN global variable (defined in SEAICE)
311       + move computation of the viscosities eta and zeta into a new separate
312         routine (because I need to recompute them in seaice_ocean_stress.F)
313    
314    checkpoint58b_post
315    o AIM+thSIce: fix sign of Short-Wave through the Ice ;
316      update output.txt of exp. aim.5l_cs.thSI
317    o various mnc cleanups and improvements:
318      + shrink lookup tables by factor of ~4
319      + better error reporting when running out of lookup space
320      + able to handle longer path/file names (up to 500 chars)
321    o adjoint:
322      - Another overhaul of store dirs. for NLFS to eliminate  "hidden" recomputations.
323      - TBD: "hidden" mom_vecinv recomp. in dynamics
324    o change forcing_In_AB to affects both T,S forcing and Momentum forcing
325     (allow to differentiate between forcing components using new integer flags:
326      momForcingOutAB=1/0 & tracForcingOutAB=1/0)
327     and add new flag to put Dissipation tendency out of Adams-Bashforth.
328    o ecco
329      - enable trend removal from SSH anomaly obs.
330    o adjoint
331      - a fix for PmEpR when #undef EXACT_CONSERV
332      - fix of "hidden" recomp. in thermodynamics (no TAF warnings)
333      - try to fix "hidden" recomp. in forward_step for NLFS
334        (NLFS seems broken sometimes after I checked it in)
335    o seaice:
336     - add c-grid version of the dynamic solver:
337       + three new routines that are the c-grid substitute lsr, dynsolver
338         and ostres
339       + put a few fields that were local to dynsolver into global common
340         blocks, so that I can move the computation of stresses etc into
341         seaice_lsr (saves coding but may break the adjoint).
342     - replace more hardwired parameters by runtime parameters
343     - add ice masks that mask the rhs of the implicit solvers where there
344       is no ice (commented out in seaice_dynsolver, because i am not sure
345       if this works properly), eventually this should replace the clipping
346       of ice velocities in seaice_dynsolver to +/-40cm/s.
347    o remove the BUILD_INFO.h include from CPP_EEOPTIONS.h and explicitly
348      include it only where its needed
349    o move balancing of fluxes before the call of external_forcing_surf
350    o seaice:
351      - correct units of turning angles (now they are really in degrees)
352      - move computation of GWATX/Y out of main routine into dynsolver
353      - initialize GWATX/Y in seaice_init
354    o Apply mask on Fresh-Water flux (needed for SSH forcing).
355      update output.txt of exp. global_ocean_ebm & cpl_aim+ocn (affects cg2d residual)
356    o seaice: add runtime flags for turning angles (default to zero)
357    o Adding runtime parameter to exf/, ctrl/, to remove on-the-fly global mean
358      and trend from exf forcing and ctrl control adjustments
359    o fix variable aliasing in gad_calc_rhs that cannot be handled by TAF
360      (since checkpoint57x_post)
361    o change the default rotation period to 86164.s = the Earth rotation
362    o 1rst implementation of Implicit IGW using the 3-D solver (use3Dsolver=T)
363      and based on a reference stratification. Tested within hs94.cs-32x32x5.
364    o seaice advection: add code for choosing between the default (2nd order
365      central differences) and multiDim advection schemes provided by
366      pkg/generic_advdiff
367    o seaice:
368      - removed all references to SEAICE_GRID.h fields from
369        dynsolver, advect, diffus, lsr, without changing the results of lab_sea
370        (cubed-sphere configuration will change a little)
371      - grid computations in seaice_init are obsolete now.
372      - cleaned up code a little so that is easier to read (hopefully).
373      - added new (better?) discretizations of default advection and diffusion
374        (turn on with SEAICEuseFluxForm)
375      - replace 1 in 3d global fields by kSurface in growth.F
376      
377    checkpoint58a_post
378    o seaice:
379      - bug fix in advect.F
380    o shelfice:
381      - separate shelfice load anomaly from pload (breaks with time
382        dependent forcing), => introduce constant field shelficeLoadAnomaly.
383        Its default is 0., but it may be computed more cleverly from (unknown)
384        t- and s-profiles (tRef, sRef) and actual EOS. For now this has to be
385        done offline. A good approximation of the pressure load anomaly is
386        necessary to avoid large initial adjustment processes underneath
387        deep-reaching shelfice.
388      - small fix in ISOMIP shelfice_thermodynamics
389      - add more sophisticated thermodynamics of Hellmer (1989), this is
390        now the default
391      - give a few constants more intuitive names
392    o add code to balance EmPmP and Qnet at the end of do_ocean_physics. Useful
393      if bulk formulae are used in long integration (especially EmPmR). Turn
394      on with balanceEmPmR = .true. or balanceQnet = .true. in data, PARM01
395      if balancePrintMean, the imbalance that is substracted is printed to
396      STDOUT.
397    o fix bug (typo) in obcs_apply_eta.F
398    o add a new package shelfice which enables us to model the circulation
399      underneath shelf-ice with draughts of hundreds of meters.
400     - works
401     - to do: + include improved thermodynamics
402              + check whether kSurfC (from model/inc/SURFACE.h) can be used
403                instead of new field kTopC
404              + can we use topoFile, Ro_surf and existing code in ini_depth.F
405                instead of new field R_shelfIce and new code in ini_depth.F
406                and ini_mask_etc.F?
407              + adjust vertical mixing schemes?
408    o seaice pkg:
409     - add a cpp-flag to include a simple formula for a salinity dependent
410       freezing point of sea water at the surface
411     - change the contents of SEAICE_TEST_ICE_STRESS_1 so that zonal and
412       meridional stresses are now different (and hopefully correct)
413    o AIM pkg: change threshold on large-scale condensation to conserve Heat.
414       update results of aim.5l_LatLon test ; fix title & units of AIM diagnostics
415       and  change 3 diagnostics names (OSR,OSRCLR,KM -> TSR,TSRCLR,DRAG)
416    o pkg/diagnostics: add options and parameters for regional-statistics
417       diagnostics ; define regions by reading a region-mask from a file
418       (might add other options later)
419    o pkg/bulk_force:
420     - add option and parameters to use AIM surface-flux formulae.
421     - Change loading part: S/R BULKF_FIELDS_LOAD only take care of bulkf_fields ;
422       others forcing fields (defined in PARM05, parameter file "data") are loaded
423       from S/R EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD, as usually (with useBulkforce = T or F).
424     - initialise all bulkf_fields in bulkf_init.F ; do in-lining of exf_bulkcdn.F
425     - use the right EXCH call for uwind,vwind (to work on CS-grid).
426     - re-arrange header files (move parameters from BULKF.h to BULKF_PARAMS.h)
427       and parameters (note: calcWindStress replaces .NOT.readwindstress).
428     - cleaner interface with pkg/thSIce (new S/R THSICE_GET_PRECIP).
429    
430    checkpoint58
431    o add "--embed-source" option to genmake2 which, when the supporting
432      tools can be compiled (as determined by genmake2) will turn on the
433      embed_files package which then embeds the entire MITgcm source code
434      (*.[fFhc] + Makefile) used for the build within the executable
435      - requested by CNH but off by default
436      - adds a paltry <9MB to the mitgcmuv executable in most cases
437      - only writes the output when useEMBEDSRC in eedata is true
438    o clean up 3-dim. relaxation codes:
439      * Fix I/O inconsistency in pkg/rbcs: replace precFloat32 by readBinaryPrec
440      * Remove 3-dim. relaxation code from pkg/exf (now use only pkg/rbcs)
441      * Thanks to Tom Haine for testing!
442    
443    checkpoint57z_post
444    o make CG3D solver compatible with Free-surface at k > 1 (p-coordinate):
445      affects output (@ truncation level) of exp. plume_on_slope ; updated.
446    o fix the pickup behavior for obcs in combination with ptracers
447    o fix a bug in ptracers_external_fields_load
448    o no AB-2 at the first iteration for Gw (consistent with Gu,Gv,Gt,Gs ...)
449      affects results of NH experiments (but all our NH tests have Gw[it=1]==0 !!)
450    o transfered surface NH pressure to eta field (if exactConserv).
451    o gmredi: fix bugs in slope tapering ldd97 (depthZ had the wrong sign)
452         and update lab_sea output.txt file.
453    o completing 3-dim. relaxation code: additional term
454         1/tau*( theta(i,j,k) - thetaStar(i,j,k) )
455      in S/R EXTERNAL_FORCING_T (file external_forcing.F)
456      * At compile time, in "EXF_OPTIONS.h" set
457          #define  ALLOW_CLIMTEMP_RELAXATION
458          #define  ALLOW_CLIMSALT_RELAXATION
459      * At runtime in "data", under &PARM03 set (e.g., units in seconds)
460          tauThetaClimRelax3Dim = 15552000.0,
461          tauSaltClimRelax3Dim  = 15552000.0,
462      * 3 cases:
463          1) Use a constant-in-time 3-dim. field
464          2) Provide 12 3-dim. fields corresponding to Jan., ... , Dec.
465          3) Real-time relax. to time-evolving prescribed field
466    o Adding Laplacian-type smoothness constraint on
467      initial and boundary (forcing) controls (ic, bc)
468      * enable at compile-time via
469        ALLOW_SMOOTH_IC_COST_CONTRIBUTION, ALLOW_SMOOTH_BC_COST_CONTRIBUTION
470      * enable at run-time via mult_smooth_ic = 1, mult_smooth_bc = 1
471      * Absolute scale somewhat unclear so far
472      * no area weighting was included since no other cost term does so far
473    
474    checkpoint57y_post
475    First step for a NLFS adjoint
476    o initially suppress rStar (new flag DISABLE_RSTAR_CODE)
477    o new init. routines for calc_r_star, calc_surf_dr
478    o still need to deal with ini_masks_etc
479    o testreport seemed happy
480    checkpoint57y_pre
481    
482    o obcs: always reset wVel & eta (to zero or prescribe it) at the OBs.
483    o add new package rbcs (for relaxing ptracers at boundaries/depth/surface etc)
484    o add new offset feature to offline pkg (plus minor cleanup)
485    o cfc fixes for final year of integration
486    o clean up GCHEM_OPTIONS.h/DIC_OPTIONS.h (all options should
487      be in GCHEM_OPTIONS).
488    
489    checkpoint57x_post
490    o fix testreport Pb in multiple test experiment.
491    o cleanup our namelist syntax in verification:
492      - make it more F95 standards compliant (some work still needed)
493      - allows the vast majority of our tests to work with gfortran
494    o Non-Hydrostatic:
495     - put all NH variables (formerly in DYNVARS.h & GW.h) in NH_VARS.h
496     - fix exchange calls for CS-grid using the new EXCH_S3D_RL.
497    o Allow to apply AB on T,S rather than on AB(gT,gS):
498     - implemented within #ifdef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3
499     - use the same arrays (gtNm,gsNm) to hold tracer field at previous
500       time-steps (if AB(T,S)) and tendencies (if AB(gT,gS)).
501     - need a "clever" read_pickup to restart from the other AB formulation
502    o move local commom bloc /GlobalLo/ (used for singleCpuIO) in EESUPPORT.h
503    o remove some unused variables (reduces number of compiler warnings)
504    o adjoint
505      * Disable useVariableViscosity for adjoint for time being
506        (there are a number of extensive recomputations)
507      * Initialize certain variables needed for adjoint
508    
509    checkpoint57w_post
510    o pkg/mdsio: use MAX_LEN_FNAM (instead of hard coded 80) for file-names
511                 fix the singleCpuIO RS version of MDSWRITEFIELD
512       and add a WARNING if using globalFiles=T with multi-processors.
513    o write grid-file(s) in only one format (MDS or MNC): default=MNC (if
514      using MNC); can force MDS output by setting writegrid_mnc=F in data.mnc
515    o tracer advection scheme:
516      add DST-2 (=Lax-Wendroff) & 1rst order upwind schemes (the way to get
517       those 2 schemes before, changing GAD_FLUX_LIMITER.h + to recompile,
518       was not very convenient).
519      add implicit version for DST-3 & DST3_Flux_Limit vertical advection;  
520       (further tests needed for the implicit DST & Flux-Limiter schemes).
521    o PTRACERS: added namelist parameter PTRACERS_ref in analogy to tRef
522      and sRef for convenience, handy, when you want to initialize
523      ptracers in a large domain with a constant non-zero value. Also,
524      untangle ptracers_init.F a little.
525    
526    checkpoint57v_post
527    o change dome exp. to use variable viscosity in side-drag terms.
528    o remove all the files from the cfc_offline test since they are now
529      incorporated into tutorial_cfc_offline which has been producing
530      identical results for a few days of testing
531    o add new parameter: sideDragFactor to enable half-slip-side BC
532      and change side-drag S/R to use viscosity from mom_calc_visc
533      (can switch back by setting sideDragFactor=0.); affects results at
534      truncation level; regenerate output for exp.: global_ocean.cs32x10(x3),
535       global_ocean_ebm, global_ocean_pressure, matrix_example & MLAdjust(x5).
536    o vorticity & strain are now computed without masking, to account for
537      no-slip-side BC in variable viscosity calculation ; mask is applied
538      anyway later on, before computing advection/coriolis terms.
539    o modify exp4 to test new obcs support for reading from external files
540      and for passive tracers
541    o fix behavior of ptracers_monitor when monitor output is written to a
542      netcdf-file; still not independent of monitor.F (writes in the same
543      file).
544    o change default value of tRef (put a uniform, meaningful value for ocean
545      & atmos) and initialize sRef (was missing, as Martin mentioned).
546    o Redefine viscC?Leith*.  Change the coefficients of Leith viscosity
547      to be proportional to enstrophy dissipation length.  Thus,
548       viscC?leith?_new=pi*(viscC?leith?_old)^(1/3)
549      This is now consistent with Smagorinsky and with the manual.
550    
551    checkpoint57u_post
552    o OBCS and PTRACERS: add open boundary support for passive tracers
553      - either use homogenous (pseudo) v.Neumann conditions or prescribe
554        OB-values from file; this is not different from the way theta and salinity
555        are treated
556      - however, Orlanski-radiation conditions are not supported, and the model
557        will stop if you use pTracers and Orlanski at the same time.
558      - beefed up the rountine obcs_external_fields_load: now only those open
559        boundary values are overwritten with values from files for which there
560        are really files, otherwise the OB-fields remain untouched. This makes
561        it possible to use different OBs at different ends of the domain (as
562        with EXF)
563    o reduce number of exch calls in shap_filt (s2).
564    o CS-grid: fix divergence contribution to Leith viscosity. Affects (@
565      truncation level) 4/5 MLAdjust test results (11&12 digits match).
566    
567    checkpoint57t_post
568    o test biharmonic viscosity + no-slip with exp: global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
569    o finish adding brackets (coriolis S/R, vecinv) in multi-terms sum to get
570      same truncation, independent of the face number: affects affects several
571      test. exp.: Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
572    o fix bug in mom_v_sidedrag (biharmonic viscosity was counted 2 times);
573      note that biharmonic viscosity + no-slip was not tested in any experiment.
574    o fix bug in non-linear free-surf side-drag ; generate new output for
575      global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & global_ocean_pressure.
576    o make mnc honor the writeBinaryPrec flag for most kinds of output
577    o eesupp: split EEPARAMS into EESIZE/EEPARAMS and add a vector global sum
578    o minor change in averaging W (mom_vi_?_vertshear.F) that affects truncation
579      error; update output from global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
580    o add brackets in multi-terms sum to get same truncation, independent of
581      the face number (manage to get exactly same value of gU,gV at the cs-edge)
582      affects several test. exp. Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice).
583    o Clean, new version of mom_calc_visc.  Adds a new feature, viscAhRemax
584      and viscA4Remax, which allow one to limit the minimum viscosity by specifying
585      a maximum grid-scale Reynolds number.  Also, changes all length calculations
586      in the case of grid anisotropy to geometric mean of dx**2 and dy**2.
587      Suggested values of viscosity parameters found in mom_calc_visc.
588      Many new viscosity diagnostics available.
589    
590    checkpoint57s_post
591    o Add clearing-house for viscosity calculations, mom_calc_visc and
592      correct numerous bugs in LeithD and Smagorinsky discretizations.  
593      mom_calc_visc now allows for Smagorinsky, Leith and LeithD to be
594      used simultaneously, and to be used in mom_vecinv and mom_fluxform.
595      Mom_vecinv can be used with standard viscous calculation (mom_vi_hdissip.F)
596      and with Strain-Tension viscous term calculation (mom_hdissip.F).  
597      The Strain-Tension form is now called with useStrainTensonVisc=.true.
598      ViscAhStrain and viscAhTension are now retired.
599    o diagnostics "VISCAHD" & "VISCA4D" replace "VISCAH" & "VISCA4".
600    o In response to JMC's bug report, genmake2 now ignores any soft-links
601      that it finds in the *current* directory when searching for files.
602      Soft-links found in any other source directories will still work as
603      they did before.
604    o add HAVE_SETRLSTK define and useSETRLSTK flag (eedata) which calls
605      a C routine to unlimit the stack size
606    o mnc-ify pkg/aim snapshot vars
607    o mnc-ify pkg/land as requested by Daniel
608    o various changes to mnc including:
609      - all files use the new "BASENAME[[.ITER].{t|f}NUM].nc" format
610      - output can now be grouped so that all files within a group
611          change the ITER portion of their names in lock-step together
612      - can now read ("global") PER-FACE (in addition to PER-TILE) files
613          and works with both EXCH1 and EXCH2 (but needs more testing)
614      - writing works for all verification test cases w/ g77 on Linux
615    
616    checkpoint57r_post
617    o make MNC variable initialization happen earlier
618    o add diagnostics for (almost) each term of the momentum Eq.
619    o remove SST,SSS,UVEL_k2,VVEL_k2 diagnostics.
620    o move pkg timeave out of pkg-groups "oceanic" & "atmospheric" (pkg/pkg_groups)
621    o remove MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT option ;
622      add "dumpInitAndLast" to replace "nodumps" (and MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT).
623    o move some basic S/R (used elsewhere in the code) from pkg/mdsio to eesupp/src
624      allows to compile without pkg/mdsio (& test successfully hs94.1x64x5)
625    o add MNC output for adjoint of EXF (adexf), SEAICE (adseaice)
626    o add time-dependent SST, SSS control
627    o cost terms in ecco/ modularized (new cost_generic.F)
628    o cost_averages routines are modularized (new cost_averagesgeneric.F)
629    o new infrastructure for seaice model vs. obs misfits in seaice/
630      * driver from the_main_loop.F is seaice_cost_driver.F
631      * first term is AREA vs. SMR observation misfit (ALLOW_SEAICE_COST_SMR_AREA)
632      * gradient check in Exp. 6a of natl_box_adjoint/
633    o natl_box_adjoint input_seaice for Lab. Sea now available online via wget
634      (see README file)
635    
636    checkpoint57q_post
637    o fix initialisation Pb in calc_gw (get NANs in exp5 with g77)
638    o fix annoying months-old bug in mnc/mdsio output for seaice pkg
639      - bug was reported by Jean-Michel and Ian Fenty
640    o fix initialization Pb in AIM-Ocean coupled model (aim_sice2aim.F)
641      update exp. cpl_aim+ocn output.
642    o Implement 4-level checkpointing: AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
643      Needed for high-res. runs with large global files
644      to be able to limit tapelev size
645    o Changed some tests for adjoint:
646      * carbon/ now tests AUTODIFF_2_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
647      * natl_box_adjoint/code_bulk/ tests AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
648      * global_ocean.90x40x15/ back to default 3-level checkpointing
649    o Modifications to enable scripted COMMON to MODULE conversion
650      * verification/OpenAD/code/ has necessary scripts and description;
651      * converts, compiles and runs successfully;
652    
653    checkpoint57p_post
654    o reading of delXfile & delYfile moved from ini_parms.F to ini_grid.F
655    o move ${PKG}_MNC_INIT from ${PKG}_READ_PARAMS to ${PKG}_INIT_FIXED
656      (already the case for some pkgs, including recent MNC_init, e.g. thsice)
657    o call CALC_GW from DYNAMICS (instead of from FORWARD_STEP)
658    o Dissipation & phiHyd gradient are always added to gU,gV in timestep.F
659      (was already the case for dissipation with mom_vecinv,
660       and also the case for grad.PhiHyd when staggered-timeStep)
661      This will allow to put dissipation out-off the AB time-stepping.
662     Unfortunately, affects truncation error. Update output of exp. that "fails"
663      (cg2d matching number) and leave the others for later: front_relax(10),
664      global_ocean_pressure(10),ideal_2D_oce(10),internal_wave(9),lab_sea(12),
665      matrix_example(7!),natl_box(12),plume_on_slope(11),vermix(12x3,11x2).
666    
667    checkpoint57o_post
668    o fix MNC/MDSIO flags in PTRACERS so that (1) it works, and
669      (2) its ready to be documented during the 20050801 DocFest
670    o MNC-ify the gmredi package -- tested and works w/ and w/o mnc
671      for ideal_2D_oce and lab_sea on linux_ia32_g77
672    o set to #undef CTRL_SET_OLD_MAXCVARS_30
673      in global1x1_tot/code_seaice_adj to access indices 32, 33
674      (worth another tag)
675    
676    checkpoint57n_post
677    o adding precip control xx_precip 32
678    o adding swflux control xx_swflux 33
679    o Replacing 10 forcing penalty cost routines by 1 generic.
680    o Implementing partitioning in time-mean and variable adjustment
681      for atmos. state.
682    o Time-mean constant error is now read in data.ecco (instead of hard-coded)
683    o in natl_box_adjoint:
684      * updated exp 1 to 10
685        (but does not have time-mean vs. variable split results yet)
686    o updated global1x1/*_seaice_adj/
687      to incorporate latest changes
688    o enable useSingleCpuIO for mdsio vector routines
689      (applies in particular to tapelev I/O)
690    o removed inefficient K-loop in all active_file*control*.F
691    
692    checkpoint57m_post
693    o re-arrange exp. adjustment.cs-32x32x1 (adjust_nlfs.cs-32x32x1 merge into)
694      and advect_cs (use EXCH-2 and standard cs-32 grid files).
695    o pkg/exch2: filling of face-corner halo regions is optional
696      (ifdef W2_FILL_NULL_REGIONS) and is turned off by default.
697    
698    checkpoint57l_post
699     tag before updating tutorials (pre-release-2)
700    o add cos & sin of grid-direction orientation angle (curvilinear grid only,
701       for output and interpolation of input fields onto model grid)
702    o fix radius in mom_v_metric_cylinder.F (wrong by dy/2).
703       Affects results of exp. rotating_tank ; update output.txt.
704    o pkg/diagnostics: 2 new S/R to fill a diagnostics using a scaling factor
705          and taking the square quantity and/or using a fraction-weight field.
706    o fix aim_diagnostics_init.F mate numbers.
707    o add mnc output capability to diagnostics/diagstat and update
708      our cvsignore files for the ACSII output generated
709    
710    checkpoint57k_post
711    o lab_sea now uses diagnostics package and provides a suite of
712      new EXF diagnostics output.
713    
714    checkpoint57j_post
715    o exf
716      * bug fix in exf_bulkformulae for psimh (spotted by Eliyahu Biton):
717        Bracket missing in eqn. for psimh (eqn. 7 of Large & Pond, 1982);
718        terms -2*ATAN(x) + pi/2 were added to both stable and unstable case.
719      * extended diagnostics output
720        - now includes all EXF variables
721        - hs, hl moved to common block
722        - separate S/R for diagnostics, called after ctrl vector is added
723        - name changed for EXFsw -> EXFswnet, EXFlw -> EXFlwnet
724        - EXFqnet contains true Qnet (i.e. includes qsw)
725      * updated verif. lab_sea, global_with_exf
726      * Rearranging hflux (exf_mapfields -> exf_getforcing)
727        to ensure that diagnostics sees a true EXFqnet
728    o add matlab scripts for CS-grid vectors (in utils/cs_grid)
729    o diagnostics pkg: change pointers so that 1 diagnostic can be used
730      several times with different frequencies.
731    o mnc-ify the thsice package as requested by Daniel Enderton
732      - the monitor--MNC output needs work
733      - many attributes need to be added (most are currently blank)
734    o mnc-ify theaim_v23 package as requested by Daniel Enderton
735      - many attributes need to be added (most are currently blank)
736    o remove "groundAtK1" & "rkFac" (replaced by usingPCoords & -rkSign)
737    o add Sadourny like discretization to the 4th.O vorticity advection scheme
738    o fix bug in rStar code (calc_r_star.F) when used with topo/bathy.
739      update output.txt from: aim.5l_cs (& .thSI), cpl_aim+ocn,
740         fizhi-gridalt-hs and global_ocean.cs32x15 (& .thsice).
741    o fix few little things to avoid floating error with -ftrapuv (ifort v9)
742     (ini_spherical_polar_grid.F, calc_r_star.F, monitor/mon_surfcor.F)
743    
744    checkpoint57i_post
745    o Diagnostics package was changed: diagnostic allocation is now deactivated
746      by setting an empty file name in the namelist (used to be by setting 0 frequency)
747    o momentum advection (VI form) options: activate 4th.O vorticity Coriolis ;
748      add 1rst Order upwind vertical Shear.
749    o add a quick fix for A/B checkpointing in OFFLINE mode
750    o add IGNORE_TIME define and -ignore_time option to genmake2 as an
751      end-run around the C/Fortran linking horror in eesup/src/timers.F
752    o added pkg/runclock: allows user to terminate run based on wall clock
753    o added non-hydrostatic scaling parameter: nh_am2
754    o pkg/my82: futile attempt to make results compiler-independent by adding
755      some "_d 0", etc. no effect.
756    o for mnc output, fill the 'T' coordinate var with myTime and create a
757      separate 'iter' variable for iteration count
758    o pkg/diagnostics:
759      add new capability: output of Global/Regional & per-level statistics ;
760      tested against monitor output (including land & thSIce) on various exp.
761    o make seaice-pkg I/O type flags (MNC/MDS) more standard.
762    
763    checkpoint57h_done
764      tag after changing user customized files (DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h,
765      data.diagnostics, data.gchem, data.ptracers) is done.
766    
767    o pkg/diagnostics: prepare for Global/Regional statistics.
768      add 2nd namelist in data.diagnostics and update DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h
769    o remove "baseTime" (no used) from arg. list of DIFF_BASE_MULTIPLE
770      and rename it: DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE
771    
772    checkpoint57h_post
773    o move tIter0 from data.gchem to PTRACERS_Iter0 in data.ptracers
774    o pkg/diagnostics: change output frequency, now in seconds (instead
775      of Nb of iterations). This requires to change data.diagnostics.
776    checkpoint57h_pre
777    
778    o in mnc, let the user create the output dir if both mnc_outdir_date
779      and mnc_outdir_num are false
780    o add fflags() to pkg/diagnostics which allows one to specify, on a
781      per-file basis, the file precision [default behavior is unchanged]
782    o added diagnostics to pkg/kpp, including computation of mixed layer
783      depth based on a temperature/density criterion
784    o updated verification/natl_box to test the new pkg/kpp diagnostics
785    o bugs fixed (with useAbsVorticity=T & with useJamartMomAdv=T)
786    o test AB-3 code with 4th.Order advection scheme (advect_xy/input.ab3_c4)
787    o fix mnc flags in pkg/seaice so that they are "owned" by seaice,
788      not mnc -- this mistake was found by JMC and is now corrected
789    
790    checkpoint57g_post
791    o add Adams-Bashforth 3rd Order time stepping:
792      - default remains AB-2 (#undef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3)
793      - not yet implemented with NH, CD_Scheme, pTracers, MNC_pickup ...
794    checkpoint57g_pre
795    
796    o make lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax spatially varying
797      (default remains spatially uniform constant based on tau)
798    o added new control variables
799      * init. uVel, vVel, etanN
800      * lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax
801    o separate masks used for ctrl_pack/unpack 'from write_grid' output
802      (suggested by G. Forget)
803    
804    checkpoint57f_post
805    o add parameter "baseTime" = model base time = time at iteration zero
806      new function DIFF_BASE_MULTIPLE (replace DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE) to
807      account for baseTime shift
808    o move Coriolis arrays from PARAMS.h to GRID.h
809    checkpoint57f_pre
810    
811    o mnc-ifying the seaice package
812    o introduced an alternative length scale calculation for use in the limiting
813      maximum viscosity (off by default, see mom_vi_hdissip.F for details)
814    o S/R ptracers_calc_diff: argument list bug for CALL KPP_CALC_DIFF_S
815    o added modified Leith scheme with viscosity proportional to grad(Hdiv)
816      as well as grad(vort3).  Made it compatible with both approximate form
817      for the cubed sphere and full form of these gradients.  Added flag
818      useFullLeith to select between approximate and full form.  
819    o add "d0" in getcon.F to reduce differences between compilers/platforms
820      update output.txt of exp. fizhi-gridalt-hs
821    o change port_rand funtion to allow to set the seed.
822    o fix obscure MNC bug involving conversion between reals and integers
823      - it caused no problems with certain (eg. gcc, ifc) compilers but the
824        new version is now more standards-compliant
825    o adjoint-related modifications
826      * gad_dst3_adv_?: to be able to use advscheme=30 in adjoint
827      * gad_calc_rhs: fool adjoint, revert to advscheme=30 in reverse when using 33
828      * mom_vi_hdissip: to be able to use Leith scheme in adjoint
829    
830    checkpoint57e_post
831    o Adding eddy stress controls a la Ferreira et al.
832    checkpoint57e_pre (actually was tagged: eckpoint57e_pre)
833    
834    o fizhi pkg: fix AtoC and CtoA when called with same input & output array
835      update output.txt of exp. fizhi-gridalt-hs
836    o add more "Z" dimensions and associated coordinate vars to MNC
837    o pkg/exf: added twoDigitYear capability for option useExfYearlyFields
838    o parameter calendarDumps: when set, approximate months (30-31 days) and years
839      (360-372 days) for parameters chkPtFreq, pChkPtFreq, taveFreq, SEAICE_taveFreq,
840      KPP_taveFreq, and freq in pkg/diagnostics are converted to exact calendar
841      months and years.  Requires pkg/cal.
842    o diagnostics: add pickup functionality
843      - off by default for backwards compatibility
844      - current version only uses MDSIO -- MNC will be added
845    o allow to use pkg diagnostics for LAND pkg output & Shapiro Tendencies.
846    o pkg/shap_filt: fix for multi-tiles per face (CS-grid with EXCH2)
847    
848    checkpoint57d_post
849    o pkg/thsice used in the ocean: fix tile Pb related to sIceLoad forcing
850    o modify verification/ideal_2D_oce so that it tests the creation of mnc
851      output from the diagnostics package
852    o temporary fix in EXCH2_UV: add a 3rd call to fix the 24.tiles CS-grid set-up
853    o make genmake2 more portable by using ".$FS" instead of ".f" for more
854      of the test compilations (eg. IBM xlf on Mac OSX w/HFS filesys)
855    o add coordinate variables to the MNC output from the diagnostics package
856    o change MNC-flags default value: true when useMNC=TRUE
857    o add a "readgrid_mnc" flag to MNC and give model/src/ini_curvilinear_grid.F
858      the ability (off by default) to read the grid information using MNC
859    o lab_sea: use LSR_ERROR=1.E-12 for testing ; update output.txt
860    o diagnostics: fix a bug (sub-set of levels); keep full precision when averaging
861    o do snap-shot diagnostics at the middle of the time-interval (instead of
862      at the end).
863    o update exp. aim.5l_cs (use default LAND_OPTIONS.h file) and add
864      new test for AIM with thSIce + slab-ocean
865    o cpl_aim+ocn test: update output (optfile & default GMREDI_OPTIONS.h)
866    o move state variable diagnostics to the beginning of the time step ;
867      (note: still needs some work specially for snap-shot diagnostics)
868      duplicate & replace UVELVVEL diagnostics with UV_VEL_C & UV_VEL_Z
869    
870    checkpoint57c_post
871    o Change testing option (-ieee) to get closer agreement between g77 & ifort
872    o generate new output.txt files on faulks with g77 & the new -ieee option
873    checkpoint57c_pre
874    
875    o add "_d 0" in freeze ; change some "FLOAT" to "DFLOAT" and went back (TAF);
876      update output.txt of exp. global_ocean.90x40x15
877    o fix in ini_eos.F (one "_d 0" was missing): now g77 & ifc give much closer
878      results; update global_ocean_pressure & global_ocean.cs32x15 output.txt
879    o add saltFlux(+File) forcing capability with periodicExternalForcing
880    o allow to use pkg diagnostics for GM-Redi & ThSIce output
881    o diagnostics_fill: fill in up to sNx+1 or sNy+1 (if U,V or Z pt) for mnc.
882    o improvements for the MNC output from DIAGNOSTICS:
883      - correct handling of the unlimitied dimension
884      - all dims now have associated coordinate variables
885      - variables located at U, V, and Corner ("Z") points are now written
886        with the correct horzontal dimensions (eg. 'Xp1', 'Yp1') so that
887        *all* data points are output
888    o added seaice_summary.F and removed obsolete ALLOW_SEAICE's from pkg/seaice
889    o added pkg/seaice/seaice_monitor.F
890    o mdsio_readfield.F can now read files visible only to master MPI process.
891    o pkg/seaice: some test code for ice-modified ocean stress
892    o exf_getffields interpolation defaults to bilinear for all scalar forcing
893      fields (remains bicubic for wind velocity and stress).  This avoids, e.g.,
894      spurious negative numbers for precipitation and humidity.  Will cause
895      some small numerical differences for integrations using pkg/exf/exf_interp.F.
896    o pkg/ctrl/
897      * Add ctrlvec diagnostics in pack/unpack for nondimensional I/O
898        May be enabled via doPackDiag
899      *  introduce z-scaling of
900         + gradient (doZscalePack) and
901         + control (doZscaleUnpack)
902    o pkg/mdsio/
903      * enable useSingleCpuIO for state estimation (ctrl_pack/unpack) mdsio_gl.F
904      * N.B.: leave tiled I/O for tapelev (i.e. mds...vector)
905    
906    checkpoint57b_post
907    o simplify options in diagnostics_fill arguments (remove weird combinations)
908    o fix MNC coordinate variables so that they now contain per-face index
909      values (instead of xC,xG,yC,yG values) when run with EXCH2 since, in
910      general, EXCH2 grids are only aligned to a "local" coordinate system
911    o test diagnostics pkg in dic_example (no output) and ideal_2D_oce (with ouput)
912    o Implement instantaneous output within pkg diagnostics:
913      setting a negative frequency in data.diagnostics produces
914     "snap-shot" output (as opposed to time-average if freq > 0)
915    o move out off EQUIVALENCE all diagnostics that fizhi does not use ;
916      NOTE: change ptracer diagnostics name: use 2 characters to work with
917            more than 9 tracers. Add also diagnostics of advect & diffus flux.
918    o more CF compliance: convert all MNC 'iter' variables to 'T' so that it
919      becomes the coordinate variable for the 'T' dimension
920    o add CF-style coordinate variables to MNC
921      - just a first cut:  numbers are meaningless on the cubesphere and
922        missing along the T axis but otherwise it works!
923    o add surface flux diagnostics: TAUX, TAUY, TFLUX, TRELAX, TICE, SFLUX, SRELAX
924    o pkg/thSIce: read initial state from 6 files ; allow monitor to use MNC.
925    o add diagnostics of advective & diffusive flux for T & S (pTracers coming soon)
926      this is based directly on what the model compute, so that the content of
927      each diagnostics might be affected by switching options (e.g., implicitDiffusion)
928    o small changes for diagnostics (gad_biharm_?.F, arguments of S/R impldiff.F)
929    o clean up build options files for SunOS, in particular
930      - remove -traditional from xmakedepend
931      - change -xarch=v9 to -xarch=native for f77
932      - restore use of make (not gmake)
933      - add CC=gcc if using g77
934    o changes per discussion of AM, JMC, & EH3 today:
935      - move redundant "grid" variables out of "state" -- in preparation of
936        creating proper CF-style coordinate variables and in recognition
937        that any/all grid variables can be easily copied (eg. w/NCO) from
938        the grid files into any of the other NetCDF files
939      - *always* output grid variables with MDSIO (this will eventually be
940        changed)
941      - output MNC grid file if useMNC is true
942    o every instance of _END_MASTER() has been found and replaced with
943      _END_MASTER( myThid ) in order to satisfy certain picky Sun
944      preprocessors
945    o re-arrange diagnostics pkg initialisation:
946     - allow each package to extend the available diagnostics list
947     - add some checking and fix small problems (multi-threaded, ...)
948     - new S/R diagnostics_fill (replace fill_diagnostics):
949       look through the short list of active diag. (instead of the long list)
950       create function DIAGNOSTICS_IS_ON to tell if a diagnostics is active
951    
952    checkpoint57a_post
953    o this set of changes restores TAMC compatibility
954      tested for global_ocean.90x40x15 adjoint on trough
955      (what a pain)
956    
957    checkpoint57a_pre
958    o some modifs in tools/build_options for sunos
959    o call ctrl_pack for ctrl at end for optimcycle=0
960    
961    checkpoint57
962    o add horizontal bi-harmonic viscosity for vertical velocity
963      - new parameter viscA4W (defaults to viscA4)
964      - affects only non-hydrostatic code
965      - to be done: no-slip lateral boundary conditions
966    o switch back to "sflux = sflux - runoff" in exf_getforcing.F
967    o implement Implicit Vertical advection for pTracers
968    o depth convergence accelerator: replace deltaTtracer by dTtracerLev(k)
969      (implemented also for implicit vertical diffusion & advection)
970    o OBCS: extend application of tracer open boundary conditions
971      to a strip beyond the boundary of width Olx/Oly
972    o add call monitor to TAF set of required calls (flow directives)
973      and include in natl_box_adjoint
974    o untangle a few ifdefs related to cost, ctrl, autodiff
975      untangel a few ALLOW_ECCO_OPTIMIZATION
976    o Apply Cooper & Haines representative estimates also at sub-surface (k=Nr)
977      (theta2, salt2 in ecco_cost_weights)
978    
979    checkpoint56c_post
980    o OBCS as control variables
981      - update ctrl_ad_diff.list, obcs_ad_diff.list
982      - remove balance of obcs controls from default
983      - fix index bug nobcs in ctrl_init
984      - fix dummy fields filen in ctrl_pack
985      - add dummy weights for obcs
986    o lsopt: comment out fort.94 output
987    o optim:
988      - remove unnecessary header files
989      - adjusted namelists
990      - add xerbla.F to Makefile
991    o exf:
992      - multiple modifications of exf_check_range
993      - unit change in exf_init_runoff from [m/year] to [m/s]
994    o mdsio:
995      - i/o-vector change debugLevel from debLevA to debLevB
996    
997    checkpoint56b_post
998    o collect all ptracers output in an new routine (PTRACERS_OUTPUT) that
999      is called from DO_THE_MODEL_IO
1000      - rename PTRACERS_STATV_WRITE to PTRACERS_WRITE_TIMEAVE
1001      - introduce new parameter PTRACERS_dumpFreq (defaults to dumpFreq)
1002      - clean up PTRACERS_WRITE_TIMEAVE a little
1003    o add another verification experiment that tests both the cfc-pkg and
1004      the gchem-pkg with GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING undefined, that is with
1005      reactive tendencies treated inline with regular timestepping
1006    o testreport previously did a lousy job of comparing small numbers, so
1007      we (Ed and Martin) changed the  way the cut-off of 1.e-12 is
1008      implemented in the little c-progam tmp_cmpnum.c which is embedded in
1009      testreport.
1010    o ptracers_monitor: bug fix for MPI
1011    
1012    checkpoint56a_post
1013    o GCHEM: finish reorganizating the package
1014      - forward_step calls GCHEM_CALC_TENDENDY, which computes gchemTendency
1015        (introduces another 3D-array for each passive tracer, but only if
1016        GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING is undefined. For GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING
1017        gchemTendency is not needed because the timestep is done separately)
1018      - gchemTendency is added to gPtr in GCHEM_ADD_TENDENCY
1019      - GCHEM is now---more or less cleanly---separate from PTRACERS
1020      - to bo done: handling of surfaceForcingPtr that is needed for KPP not
1021        so clear to me how that should be done in a general way.
1022    o CFC: improve formatting of output in CFC_ATMOS
1023    o PTRACERS:
1024      - rename GCHEM_MONITOR to PTRACERS_MONITOR and call it from MONITOR, so
1025        that ALL experiments with ptracers enable can be checked. This makes
1026        GCHEM_MONITOR obsolete.
1027      - include a runtime parameter PTRACERS_monitorFreq that defaults to
1028        monitorFreq
1029      - set default PTRACERS_write_mdsio to false if PTRACERS_write_mnc is true
1030    o add PTRACERS (PTR0[1-5]) to testreport output
1031    o exf_check_range:
1032      * default changed to .TRUE.
1033      * will check values for niter0 if debLevA, every timestep if debLevB
1034      * STOP in exf_check_range if 'out of range'
1035      * range chosen generous to allow for potential extema
1036      TBD: a version with stricter range
1037           permitted range would be runtime parameters
1038  o GMredi:  o GMredi:
1039    - fix ldd97 slope limit ; extend valid domain of Psi-Bolus ;    - fix ldd97 slope limit ; extend valid domain of Psi-Bolus ;
1040    - 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.

1046      - renamed PTRACERS_SEPARATE_FORCING to GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING;
1047        this flag is now only visible within GCHEM-pkg routines.
1048      - moved gchem_forcing_int temporarily into ptracers_forcing, this will
1049        be replaced by a 3D array that is computed before thermodynamics; for
1050        this, the tracer ID iTracer had to be included into the parameter list
1051        of ptracers_forcing
1052      - set up forward_step to call gchem_forcing, that will replace
1053        gchem_forcing_int in ptracers_forcing
1054      - cleaning up
