5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o pkg/exf:
8      - fix wind-stress location: defined on A-grid (if ALLOW_ATM_WIND &
9        ALLOW_BULKFORMULAE or USE_EXF_INTERPOLATION), otherwise, defined on C-grid
10      - move exf header files from lower_case.h to UPPER_CASE.h ;
11        add missing cvs Header & Name
12      - add adjoint routines and flow dirs for newly used exch_uv_agrid routines
13    o pkg/seaice:
14      - remove seaice_exch and seaice_exch_uv
15      - remove superfluous exchange of theta
16      - add myThid to seaice_budget_ocean/ice
17      - add new interface for atmospheric wind forcing (C-grid only)
18        + new routine
19        + two new field (taux, tauy for stress over ice)
20        + removed one global field (DAIRN) for C-grid case only
21    o pkg/thsise
22      - 2nd set of modifs for thsice adjoint in conjunction with exf
23    
24    checkpoint58y_post
25    o Added capability for latitudinal dependence of Bryan and Lewis, 1979
26      vertical diffusivity, similar to that in MOM4; turned on using
27      #define ALLOW_BL79_LAT_VARY in CPP_OPTIONS.h and specified using
28      diffKrBL79*, diffKrBLEQ*, and BL79LatVary in runtime data file.
29    o Added capability for 3D specification of background vertical diffusion
30      coefficient.  This is done by (i) #define ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR
31      in CPP_OPTIONS.h and (ii) specifying file diffKrFile in runtime
32      "data" file that contains the 3D vertical diffusivity coefficients.
33    o ice dynamics (pkg/seaice) with thsice thermodynamics:
34      - add code within pkg thsice to advect & diffuse sea-ice fields
35      similar to (and will replace) what has been added in  seaice_advdiff.F,
36      but: - conserving Mass, Heat & Salt.
37           - better when using non-linear advection scheme (not yet fully tested)
38           - can also be used in atmospheric set-up (for now, only the diffusion).
39    
40    checkpoint58x_post
41    o IO option for global-file compact format:
42      - add options when generating topology (utils/exch2/matlab-topology-generator)
43      - add I/O capability (pkg/mdsio).
44      - adapt utils/matlab/rdmds.m to read this format.
45      for now long-line format not yet supported by pkg/mdsio (& exch2).
46    o shelfice: add a few diagnostics
47    
48    checkpoint58w_post
49    o p-coord. non-hydrostatic using reference profile for w <-> omega conversion:
50      rVel2wUnit & wUnit2rVel are computed from reference profile Tref,Sref
51      (and replace horiVertRatio in NH code).
52      Update output of exp.: tutorial_global_oce_in_p (useNHMTerms !)
53                         and tutorial_plume_on_slope (sensitive to truncation)
54    o seaice: if ALLOW_ATM_WIND is undefined use wind stress
55      directly to drive seaice model (C-grid only)
56    o exf: when input wind-stress (#undef ALLOW_ATM_WIND):
57     - reintroduce computation of wind from stress,
58     - compute tau (in exf_bulkformulae.F) from windstress averaged to
59       mass points to avoid tau = 0
60     - fix serious bug: (1/3) in Fortran is not the same as (1./3.)
61    o rdmnc.m: make it work with "global" files created with gluemnc
62    o rdmnc.m : some improvements in dealing with singleton dimension
63      (tested on all testreport mnc output files).
64    o genmake2: disable pkg/profiles if netcdf test fails.
65    o cpl_aim+ocn exp.: use consistent rhoConstFresh in Atm & Ocn; update output.
66    o move call to cal_readparms up to make calendar parameters/variable available
67      to all packages
68    
69    checkpoint58v_post
70    o change EOS (from POLY3 to JMD95P) in global_ocean.90x45x15 to get
71      useDynP_inEos_Zc tested.
72    o pkg/exf: changes to properly interpolate/mask/scale initial fields
73    o utils/matlab/cs_grid/read_cs: routines to speed up reading of CS510 fields
74      and portions thereof.  See read_cs.txt for description and examples.
75    o utils/matlab/cs_grid/bk_line: to compute transport through passages,
76      add a script (grt_circ_bkl.m) to generate broken-line between 2 points,
77      following the great-circle arc between those 2 points.
78    o trap un-initialized variable with pathscale compiler on weddell.mit.edu
79      (thanks to Constantinos): fix few problems and get (almost) all exp to pass.
80    o 2nd-Order Moment Advection Scheme (Prather, 1986): first check-in
81     - enable by setting #define GAD_ALLOW_SOM_ADVECT (in GAD_OPTIONS.h)
82     - used without limiter (AdvScheme=80) or with Prather limiter (AdvScheme=81)
83     - still needs work (not working with some options ; efficiency to improve)
84       and serious testing.
85     - use this scheme for temperature & salinity in 2 advection test exp.:
86       advect_xy & advect_xz, respectively.
87    
88    checkpoint58u_post
89    o new test-exp: fizhi-cs-32x32x40 (40 levels) to replace the 10 levels.
90    o move call to INI_FORCING from PACKAGES_INIT_VARIABLES to INITIALISE_VARIA.
91    o testreport: add option "-skipdir" to skip some test.
92    o exf: when input wind-stress (#undef ALLOW_ATM_WIND), by-pass turbulent
93      momentum calculation.
94    o gad_advection: fix vertAdvecScheme (if different from advectionScheme)
95    o some cleaning: usePickupBeforeC35 no longer supported ; remove this option.
96      remove checkpoint.F and the_correction_step.F (no longer used);
97      do the k loop inside CYCLE_TRACER (supposed to be more efficient).
98    o add option (linFSConserveTr) to correct for tracer source/sink due to
99      Linear Free surface
100    o pkg/seaice: fix a bug in the flooding algorithm: turn off the snow machine
101    o pkg/thsice: fix reading mnc-pickups
102    
103    checkpoint58t_post
104    o pkg/diagnostics: fix multi-threaded output (when singleCpuIO=F)
105    o pkg/mdsio:
106     - clean-up mdsio_readfield.F & mdsio_writefield_new.F and
107       move to new files: mdsio_read_field.F (S/R MDS_READ_FIELD) &
108       mdsio_write_field.F (S/R MDS_WRITE_FIELD);
109     - fix multi-threaded singleCpuIO option in MDS_WRITE_FIELD
110     - collect old S/R  in one file: mdsio_rw_field.F (now just a call to
111       either MDS_READ_FIELD or MDS_WRITE_FIELD )
112     - new S/R (to replace MDSWRITEMETA), which allows to write more
113       informations (variable names, time ...) to meta files.
114     - modify rdmds.m to give back the meta file content.
115    o pkg/diagnostics: change vertical interpolation to be safer, and more
116       flexible (define p-levels to interpolate to in data.diagnostics);
117      add argument to S/R DIAGNOSTICS_GET_POINTERS to catch the right
118       diagnostic pointer.
119    o pkg/seaice: more cleaning up of seaice_growth, added many comments
120    o pkg/exf: put runoff0 and runoff1 into the appropriate common block
121    o fix multi-category seaice:
122     - change cpp flag SEAICE_MULTILEVEL to more meaningful name:
123       SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY
124     - fix short wave heat flux
125    o pkg/seaice: change default (SEAICE_OPTIONS.h): use C-grid dynamics
126       and allow to use EVP solver. Change forward lab_sea: test both EVP
127       solver and LSR solver, and use C-grid dynamics (like lab_sea adjoint)
128    o Initial check-in of lab_sea adjoint
129      (very similar to natl_box_adjoint/code_seaice)
130      * used C-grid and EVP solver
131      * used KPP, GM/Redi
132      * uses inAdExact=.TRUE.
133      * gradient checks fail for both ADM and TLM
134        due to sensitive snow melt code in seaice_grwoth (look for "JZ")
135        f.d. gradients actually seem more problematic than ADM, TLM gradients;
136        issue is related to forward mismatch between g77 an ifort
137    o pkg/seaice: overhaul of thermodynamics
138     - growth.F and groatb.F are replaced by new routine seaice_growth.F
139     - budget.F is replaced by two new routines seaice_budget_ocean/ice.F
140     - move a few global fields out of SEAICE.h into seaice_growth.F and
141       make them 2D (FICE/QNETO/ ...)
142     - remove FO (it is the same as QNETO)
143     - introduce a few local fields to avoid modifying external fields such
144       as atemp, etc.
145    
146    checkpoint58s_post
147    o pkg/exf: moved exf_init_runoff.F to exf_init.F and exf_set_gen.F
148      changed exf_set_gen.F so that
149        genperiod=0 means input file is one time-constant field and
150        genperiod=-12 means input file contains 12 monthly means
151    o CG2D: use pre-computed solver main-diagonal (stored in common block);
152      this affects truncation error ; generate new output file for exp. which
153      fails: exp4(12d), fizhi-cs-aqualev20(12d), front_relax(10d),
154        global_ocean.90x40x15(10d), global_ocean.cs32x15(10d).thsice(11d).viscA4(10d),
155        ideal_2D_oce(10d), internal_wave(09d), isomip.htd(11d), matrix_example(07d),
156        MLAdjust(4x11d,12d), natl_box(11d), rotating_tank(12d),
157        tutorial_global_oce_in_p(10d), tutorial_plume_on_slope(11d),
158        vermix(12d).ggl90(12d).my82(11d).opps(12d).pp81(11d)
159    o start implementation of deep-atmosphere and anelastic formulation
160    o verification: remove 2nd copy of input files and use script "prepare_run"
161      to make a symbolic link to the 1rst copy (reduce downloaded size by ~81.M)
162    o mom_common/vecinv/fluxform: fix a few initialisation isssues
163    o profiles: fix for multithreaded case
164    
165    o diagnostics: rename few diags:
166      s/'PRESSURE'/'RCENTER '/g
167      s/'TICE    '/'oceFreez'/g
168      s/'TAUX    '/'oceTAUX '/g
169      s/'TAUY    '/'oceTAUY '/g
170      s/'SWFLUX  '/'oceQsw  '/g
171      s/DIFx/DFxE/g
172      s/DIFy/DFyE/g
173      and add few ocean-forcing diagnostics:
174      atmPload, sIceLoad, oceQnet, oceFWflx, oceSflux, surForcT & surForcS
175    o modifications to pkg/seaice/growth.F and budget.F, which change results of
176      lab_sea experiment: HSNOW was sometimes treated as effective and sometimes
177      as actual snow thickness.  It now refers everywhere to effective snow
178      thickness, meaning that for non-zero AREA, actual thickness is HEFF/AREA.
179    
180    checkpoint58r_post
181    o modifications to pkg/seaice/growth.F, which change results of
182      lab_sea experiment: fixes pertain to melting snow over open water, to
183      masking EVAP under sea ice, and to using the correct AREA variable for
184      computations of EVAP, PRECIP, HSNOW, and GHEFF
185    o add ability to read bathy, salt, and theta using MNC (off by def)
186    o add flooding algorithm and advection of HSNOW for pkg/seaice;
187      both are turned off by default and do no change any results
188    o seaice advection with pkg/thsice: a step toward the use of non-linear
189      advection scheme, but #ifdef or commented out for now (requires more EXCH).
190    o use standard version of PTRACERS_INI_VARIA in tutorial_tracer_adjsens
191      (identical results) and the standard version of EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD
192      in natl_box (affects results @ truncation level: update output.txt)
193    o multi-threading and IO:
194      - replace some call to MDSIO S/R by the corresponding READ/WRITE_FLD S/R.
195      - remove most of BEGIN_MASTER/ END_MASTER around READ/WRITE_FLD S/R calls
196        (needed to work with SingleCpuIO): tested in all verif. exp.
197    o GAD: use simpler DST3 formulation as default (old version left within #ifdef)
198      affects the results (but none of the verification test uses this scheme).
199    o Adding some pkg/diagnostics capability to pkg/seaice
200      (will certainly be subject to changes)
201    o ctrl: adding new control variables:
202      lwflux, lwdown, evap, snowprecip, apressure, runoff
203    
204    checkpoint58q_post
205    o added CPP_EEOPTIONS.h flag DISABLE_MPI_READY_TO_RECEIVE.  Speeds up
206      1/6-deg Southern Ocean configuration by 8% on IBM Datastar and
207      high_res_cube configuration by 4% on Columbia.
208    o clean-up multi-threaded problems (reported by debugger tcheck on ACES);
209      add (in global_with_exf/code) a version of EXF_INTERP_READ without
210      dynamical allocation (seems to work in multi-threaded).
211    o new function "MASTER_CPU_IO" (=T if master thread & master CPU, if using
212      single CPU io) so that TAF does not have to see EESUPPORT.h
213    o pkg/seaice: implement sea-ice loading (when using RealFreshWaterFlux)
214    
215    checkpoint58p_post
216    o obcs: stop if obcs is used with useCDscheme = .true.
217    o shelfice:
218     - fix a sign error so that no slip at shelfice interface works
219     - remove stop for combination non-hydrostatic code and shelfice. That does
220       not mean, that the results are correct, but at least they are numerically
221       stable
222    o diagnoctics: modify UVELPHI and VVELPHI to include hfac (i.e. mass-weighted)
223    o added adjoint exch routined for all exch*3d* routines
224      and updated flow directives
225    
226    checkpoint58o_post
227    o replace calls to EXCH_Z & EXCH_UV_AGRID: use the new _3D_ version ;
228      remove old subroutines (_XY_ & _XYZ_); update the adjoint version.
229    o change controling S/R for writing pickup file (new S/R do_write_pickup)
230      and clean-up reading/writing of pickup files.
231    o fix local version of read/write pickup (NH part) in rotating_tank/code
232    o simplify EXCH interface:
233     - change _XYZ_ interface to _3D_ subroutine (with 3rd dim in argument list)
234     - not often used EXCH S/R (exch_z, exch_uv_agrid): keep only the _3D_ version
235    o added the regrid package
236    o shelfice:
237     - add a simple boundary layer scheme to reduce noise
238     - fix the indexing in shelfice_u/v_drag so that there will be actually drag
239    
240    checkpoint58n_post
241    o fix globalArea multi-threaded calculation: need to apply GLOBAL_SUM to
242       local variable (not in common block).
243    o lot of small changes for multi-threaded. Most tests (using OMP & ifort) pass.
244      - still problems with pkgs: mnc, exp2, dic, cal, exf (and probably more);
245      - still BEGIN_MASTER/END_MASTER to remove around READ/WRITE_FLD S/R calls
246        to work with SingleCpuIO.
247    o add "_d 0" to real constant of pkg/cfc subroutines ;
248       update exp. cfc_exemple & tutorial_cfc_offline output files.
249    o multi-threading and IO:
250      - all threads call READ_FLD S/R (needed if using SingleCpuIO):
251        (no BEGIN_MASTER/ END_MASTER around the call, but inside MDSIO S/R.
252      - barrier before and after reading.
253      - stop if other than master is calling MDS_WRITELOCAL (if #undef IO_THREAD_SAFE)
254      - avoid using MDS_WRITELOCAL for LAND pkg output.
255      - new S/R AIM_WRITE_PHYS (replaces AIM_WRITE_LOCAL) to write AIM physics
256        common-block variables ; Allows multi-threading with master-thread IO.
257    o change default MAX_NO_THREADS from 32 to 4 ;
258      and stop cleanly when MAX_NO_THREADS is too small.
259    o add S/R BAR_CHECK to check multi-threaded barrier synchronization
260    
261    checkpoint58m_post
262    o add a Non-Hydroatatic test (with 3-D Coriolis, NHMTerms, biharmonic Visc.
263       and side-drag) on CS-grid : global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
264    o make "tutorial_global_oce_latlon" from standard "global_ocean.90x40x15" exp.
265       keep global_ocean.90x40x15 (for AD testing) with former secondary test
266       (".qshyd") as the main test (mv output.qshyd.txt to output.txt)
267    o CVS modules: update MITgcm_verif_basic; remove MITgcm_verif_ocean & _verif_atmos;
268        add MITgcm_tutorials (= code + all the tutorials)
269    o ecco, option to compute cost for total ssh (mean+anom)
270    o consistent with addition of ptracer and ssh in pkg/profiles
271    o profiles: adding ptracer and ssh
272    o testreport: change multi-test output-file name
273      (from output.txt.{name} to output.{name}.txt)
274    o profiles: now ok for mutli-tiles case
275    o seaice: add 4 parameters for different advection schemes for area,
276      (effective) seaice thickness, enthalphy, and snow height. Their default
277      is the standard parameter SEAICEadvScheme
278    o calc_gw:
279     - add cosFacU in zonal viscous flux (harmonic.visc.).
280     - put back side-drag (call new S/R MOM_W_SIDEDRAG) and output.txt.
281       of tutorial_plume_on_slope.
282    o obcs_calc.F : fix index Pb in OBSeta & OBNeta (Thanks to Gianmaria).
283    o calc_gw: true flux-form, account for horizontal grid spacing.
284      update rotating_tank results, but not plume_on_slope (affected at
285      truncation level, 11 digits).
286    
287    checkpoint58l_post
288    o calc_gw:
289     - take bi,bj loops outside calc_gw to fix Pb with local array KappaRU,V
290     - remove side-drag for now (need to fix it); update plume_on_slope results.
291     - fix for partial-cell & non-uniform dz; update plume_on_slope results.
292    o commit code to make SST/SSS weights spatially variable
293      (based on either variable in-situ or variable initial T/S weights)
294    o pkg/ecco:
295      * commit code to relax deviations of xx_theta, xx_salt to 5*sigma,
296        now based on horizontally varying weights wthetaLev, wsaltLev
297      * cost_averagesflags now returns year indices in addition to day, month
298      * sflux balance is performed on annual basis
299        (sflxumm, sfluxmm2, bal_sfluxmm)
300      * for SSH anomaly, separate more cleanly contrib from T/P, ERS, GFO,
301        including separate counting and multipliers
302    o pkg/rbcs
303      * add all necessary infrastructure for pkg/rbcs levN adjoint checkpointing
304    
305    checkpoint58k_post
306    o testreport:
307     - always build in dir. "build" (if not there, mkdir build instead of building
308       & running in input)
309     - run in dir run (if it exists), in build otherwise.
310     - call prepare_run (if input/prepare_run exists)
311     - run multi-threaded test (with new option: "-mth") if file input/eedata.mth exists.
312    o pkg/exf modifications to interpolation and rotation routines for more
313       reasonable treatment of North Pole singularity: for tracers North Pole
314       value is set to northernmost zonal-mean value, for zonal velocity it is
315       set to zero, and for meridional velocity it is set to northernmost value.
316    o pkg/exf/exf_check_range.F
317     - add tile index to diagnostics and move stop statement to the very
318       end of the routine.
319    o pkg/diagnostics: (diagnostics_main_init.F)
320      define title of isomorphic variables according to the current config.
321    o pkg/thsice with pkg/seaice dynamics:
322    - fix domain of computation (interior only, required for exf) and do exchanges
323    - seaice-dynamics forcing: add atmospheric and seaice loading to SSH gradient
324    o towards a standard way of dealing with multi-threading in MONITOR
325      and ${PKG}_MONITOR (all except ptracers_monitor) subroutines.
326    o Pass variable viscosities (vertical and horizontal, e.g., KPP or Leith)
327       to W momentum equation in nonhydrostatic and quasihydrostatic runs.  
328    o make exf_monitor & seaice_monitor independant of the main (dynamics) monitor.
329    o pkg/seaice: fix SEAICEuseEVPpickup parameter (put it in a commom block)
330    o generic_advdiff: DST advection S/R : use local copy of velocity to compute CFL
331       (problems ? with gradient check in bottom_ctrl_5x5 adjoint test)
332    o tracer advection:
333     - clean-up and simplify calc_common_factors.F
334     - make a local copy of velocity and pass it (as u,v,r_Trans) to DST tracer
335       advection subroutine (but still not used within DST advection S/R)
336    o rename pkg aim_ocn_coupler to atm_ocn_coupler (later on, will be used without aim)
337    
338    checkpoint58j_post
339    o new driver S/R: LOAD_FIELDS_DRIVER to load external forcing fields
340      from file (collects calls previously in FORWARD_STEP)
341    o move call to SEAICE_MODEL from FORWARD_STEP to DO_OCEANIC_PHYS
342    o adjoint store dir. adjusted accordingly
343    o genmake2
344      replace target "ad_taf" by $(EXE_AD) ; add $(EXE_AD) to the make CLEAN list.
345    
346    checkpoint58i_post
347    o pkg/seaice: add parameter that allows to scale/turn off effect of seaice
348      on wind stress (SEAICEstressFactor defaults to 1.)
349    o Total number of Timers is finite (<=40): comment out 2 non-essential one
350      in the_main_loop.F to avoid Pb (e.g., when running fizhi test)
351    o vector_invariant: fix highOrderVorticity(=4.th.Order) advection
352      on CS-grid: no longer loosing mass.
353    o exf & curvilinear-grid: no longer modify longitude xC & xG.
354    o pkg/ggl90: fix sloppy output and fix a bug
355    o pkg/seaice: added SEAICEuseEVPpickup parameter
356      - Set to false in order to start EVP solver with
357        non-EVP pickup files when using SEAICEuseEVP
358      - fix sign error in diffusion in seaice_calc_rhs
359    
360    checkpoint58h_post
361    * Modifications for bottom topography control
362      o replace hFacC by _hFacC at various places
363      o replace ALLOW_HFACC_CONTROL by ALLOW_DEPTH_CONTROL
364      o add non-self-adjoint cg2d_nsa
365      o update autodiff support routines
366      o re-initialise hfac after ctrl_depth_ini
367      o works for 5x5 box, doesnt work for global_ocean.90x40x15
368    * Adding verification for 5x5 box (4-layer) bottom topography control
369    
370    checkpoint58g_post
371    o pkg/diagnostics: implement "periodic averaging diagnostics" (e.g.,
372       used for mean seasonal cycle, mean diurnal cycle); add an example
373       in verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.thsice/data.diagnostics
374    o pkg/ggl90:
375      - add parameter (minimum surface kinetic energy)
376      - fix bug (avoiding division by zero)
377    o couple pkg/thsice to pkg/seaice:
378      - modify advection in seaice to accomodate new scalar fields to be advected
379      - only muliDimAdection scheme work with seaice/thsice
380      - mapping of thsice-variables to seaice-variables, back and forth
381      - does not break the verification experiments, but does not give the
382        desired results either
383    o pkg/seaice
384      - make (default) second order advection a bit less confusing?
385    
386    checkpoint58f_post
387    o couple pkg/thsice and pkg/exf (as a preparation for coupling pkg/thsice
388      to pkg/seaice):
389      - new routines thsice_map_exf and thsice_get_exf provide the interface
390      - add an additional formal parameter to thsice_solve4temp
391    o pkg/exf:
392      - add new fields wspeed, snowprecip (to be able to couple to thsice)
393      - correct Stefan-Boltzmann constant
394      - new parameter for longwave surface emittance
395      - separate some stuff from exf_bulkformulae into new routines  
396        exf_radiation, exf_wind
397      - add new parameters and constants: longwave emissivity for ocean, ice
398        and snow, evaporation parameters over ice
399      - decouple wind/stress computation from ALLOW_BULKFORMULA: always compute
400        either wind from stress or stress from wind
401    o pkg/thSIce:
402    - split thsice_step_fwd.F in 2 S/R: thsice_step_temp.F & thsice_step_fwd.F
403    - put i,j loops inside S/R: THSICE_ALBEDO, THSICE_SOLVE4TEMP, THSICE_EXTEND
404       and THSICE_CALC_THICKN
405    - for now, call to THSICE_GET_BULKF remains inside i,j loops.
406    - add CPP option: ALLOW_DBUG_THSICE and header file THSICE_DEBUG.h
407      to make debugging easier.
408    - affects results (@ truncation level) of global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice: update output
409    o pkg/bulk_force:
410      - clean-up comments and parameters ;
411      - add new Bulk-Formulae from Large and Yeager, 2004, NCAR/TN-460+STR ;
412    o fix bug in aim+thsice albedo: snow & ice thickness arguments were switched;
413      generate new output for test-experiment: aim.5l_cs.thSI
414    o results_ad : rename "output.txt_adm" to "output_adm.txt" and change
415      testreport accordingly
416    
417    checkpoint58e_post
418    o SEAICE_CGRID adjoint done
419    o R_STAR adjoint implemented.
420      * Seems to just work (based on global_ocean.90x40x15/code_ad_nlfs/ )
421      * need to sort out init. of h0facc, etc.
422    o Make pkg/profile fully independent of ecco,cost, etc. stuff
423      to be able to use it in pure forward.
424    
425    checkpoint58d_post
426    o upgrade simple test-experiment to tutorial example:
427     step.1: duplicate the experiment and (step.2) will remove the old copy.
428      tutorial_barotropic_gyre      <- copy of exp0     (R1:barotropic_gyre_in_a_box)
429      tutorial_baroclinic_gyre      <- copy of exp1     (R1:baroclinic_gyre_on_a_sphere)
430      tutorial_global_oce_latlon    <- empty for now    (R1:global_ocean_circulation)
431      tutorial_global_oce_biogeo    <- copy of dic_example
432      tutorial_deep_convection      <- almost like exp5 (R1:nonhydrostatic_deep_convection)
433      tutorial_plume_on_slope       <- copy of plume_on_slope
434      tutorial_tracer_adjsens       <- copy of carbon   (R1:tracer_adjoint_sensitivity)
435      tutorial_global_oce_optim     <- empty for now (David ?)
436      tutorial_global_oce_in_p      <- copy of global_ocean_pressure
437     some tutorials (R1) were already checked-in under tutorial_examples in release1_branch
438    o correct a sign problem in cost_scat.F
439    o obcs and ptracers: fix boundary conditions for advections schemes
440      with larger stencil
441    o thsice adjoint: start
442    o mom_vecinv: add ISOTROPIC_COS_SCALING flags to mom_vi_hdissip for
443      completeness
444    o mom_fluxform: fixing the mutual use of ISOTROPIC_COS_SCALING
445      and COSINEMETH_III, add comments in default CPP_OPTIONS.h
446    o ptracers adjoint:
447      * avoid extensive recomputatations
448      * fix missing re-init. of gptr (missed by TAF)
449    o obcs: add a flag (OBCSprintDiags, defaults is true) that allows
450      me to turn off the excessive output to STDOUT that this package produces
451    o move NH metric terms & 3.D Coriolis S/R to pkg/mom_common
452      and add those terms in Vector-Invariant formulation.
453    o in ctrl pkg, if ALLOW_CAL, use monthly mean controls
454      if the control period (xx_hfluxperiod etc) is 0
455    o in profiles pkg, clean routines and fix details
456    o in ecco pkg, reading ssh data:
457      fix problem in case the model does not start at iter0=0
458    o fix mnc-pickup/restart for ptracers
459    o new package prifiles:
460      code to compute profile-based cost by Gael Forget
461      (modifs in ecco, ctrl, autodiff)
462    o Benign bug fix in initialization (spotted by M. Mazloff) of
463      ctrl_set_globfld_xz.F ctrl_set_globfld_yz.F
464    
465    checkpoint58c_post
466    o adjoint: finish NLFS adjoint and provide reference output in
467      verification/global_ocean.90x40x15/results_ad_nlfs
468    o seaice: add an EVP solver following Hunke and Dukowicz (1997) and the
469      documentation of CICE. Turn on by defining SEAICE_ALLOW_EVP in
470      SEAICE_OPTIONS.h and SEAICEuseEVP=.true. in data.seaice. Works only
471      with SEAICE_CGRID defined.
472    o move calendarDumps from "data" to "data.cal" and clean-up the code
473      with a simple call to pkg/cal S/R: CAL_TIME2WRITE
474    o add useEXF & useCAL flags (for now, set in hard-coded way)
475    o add S/R to compute NH-metrics terms & Coriolis f' in vertical momentum
476      (were missing in NH mode, and wrong in quasihydrostatic mode).
477      waiting for Chris updated version of calc_gw to add those CALLs.
478    o fix bug in quasihydrostatic S/R ;
479      add a test for this option: global_ocean.90x40x15.qshyd
480    o new S/R "SET_PARMS": set parameters that might depend on the use of some pkgs.
481      (called from INITIALISE_FIXED, after INI_PARMS & PACKAGES_READPARAMS)
482    o add on/off flag useOffLine for package OFFLINE
483    o seaice:
484      - modify advection so that it works also on the C-grid
485      - extend loop ranges in seaice_lsr and seaice_dynsolver; fixes
486        problem in multi-tile runs with C-grid
487      - add flags for clipping ice velocities and/or masking solver forcing
488      - fix drag (ocean on ice) formulation and a bug that caused noise in the
489        C-grid solver
490      - added a few comments to seaice_diffusion.F
491      - separate C-grid and B-grid versions more cleanly (UVM and seaiceMaskU/V
492        are now exclusive)
493      - add a new ocean-ice stress coupling method (Hibler and Bryan, 1987) which
494        required re-ordering the code a little:
495       + make DAIRN global variable (defined in SEAICE)
496       + move computation of the viscosities eta and zeta into a new separate
497         routine (because I need to recompute them in seaice_ocean_stress.F)
498    
499    checkpoint58b_post
500    o AIM+thSIce: fix sign of Short-Wave through the Ice ;
501      update output.txt of exp. aim.5l_cs.thSI
502    o various mnc cleanups and improvements:
503      + shrink lookup tables by factor of ~4
504      + better error reporting when running out of lookup space
505      + able to handle longer path/file names (up to 500 chars)
506    o adjoint:
507      - Another overhaul of store dirs. for NLFS to eliminate  "hidden" recomputations.
508      - TBD: "hidden" mom_vecinv recomp. in dynamics
509    o change forcing_In_AB to affects both T,S forcing and Momentum forcing
510     (allow to differentiate between forcing components using new integer flags:
511      momForcingOutAB=1/0 & tracForcingOutAB=1/0)
512     and add new flag to put Dissipation tendency out of Adams-Bashforth.
513    o ecco
514      - enable trend removal from SSH anomaly obs.
515    o adjoint
516      - a fix for PmEpR when #undef EXACT_CONSERV
517      - fix of "hidden" recomp. in thermodynamics (no TAF warnings)
518      - try to fix "hidden" recomp. in forward_step for NLFS
519        (NLFS seems broken sometimes after I checked it in)
520    o seaice:
521     - add c-grid version of the dynamic solver:
522       + three new routines that are the c-grid substitute lsr, dynsolver
523         and ostres
524       + put a few fields that were local to dynsolver into global common
525         blocks, so that I can move the computation of stresses etc into
526         seaice_lsr (saves coding but may break the adjoint).
527     - replace more hardwired parameters by runtime parameters
528     - add ice masks that mask the rhs of the implicit solvers where there
529       is no ice (commented out in seaice_dynsolver, because i am not sure
530       if this works properly), eventually this should replace the clipping
531       of ice velocities in seaice_dynsolver to +/-40cm/s.
532    o remove the BUILD_INFO.h include from CPP_EEOPTIONS.h and explicitly
533      include it only where its needed
534    o move balancing of fluxes before the call of external_forcing_surf
535    o seaice:
536      - correct units of turning angles (now they are really in degrees)
537      - move computation of GWATX/Y out of main routine into dynsolver
538      - initialize GWATX/Y in seaice_init
539    o Apply mask on Fresh-Water flux (needed for SSH forcing).
540      update output.txt of exp. global_ocean_ebm & cpl_aim+ocn (affects cg2d residual)
541    o seaice: add runtime flags for turning angles (default to zero)
542    o Adding runtime parameter to exf/, ctrl/, to remove on-the-fly global mean
543      and trend from exf forcing and ctrl control adjustments
544    o fix variable aliasing in gad_calc_rhs that cannot be handled by TAF
545      (since checkpoint57x_post)
546    o change the default rotation period to 86164.s = the Earth rotation
547    o 1rst implementation of Implicit IGW using the 3-D solver (use3Dsolver=T)
548      and based on a reference stratification. Tested within hs94.cs-32x32x5.
549    o seaice advection: add code for choosing between the default (2nd order
550      central differences) and multiDim advection schemes provided by
551      pkg/generic_advdiff
552    o seaice:
553      - removed all references to SEAICE_GRID.h fields from
554        dynsolver, advect, diffus, lsr, without changing the results of lab_sea
555        (cubed-sphere configuration will change a little)
556      - grid computations in seaice_init are obsolete now.
557      - cleaned up code a little so that is easier to read (hopefully).
558      - added new (better?) discretizations of default advection and diffusion
559        (turn on with SEAICEuseFluxForm)
560      - replace 1 in 3d global fields by kSurface in growth.F
561      
562    checkpoint58a_post
563    o seaice:
564      - bug fix in advect.F
565    o shelfice:
566      - separate shelfice load anomaly from pload (breaks with time
567        dependent forcing), => introduce constant field shelficeLoadAnomaly.
568        Its default is 0., but it may be computed more cleverly from (unknown)
569        t- and s-profiles (tRef, sRef) and actual EOS. For now this has to be
570        done offline. A good approximation of the pressure load anomaly is
571        necessary to avoid large initial adjustment processes underneath
572        deep-reaching shelfice.
573      - small fix in ISOMIP shelfice_thermodynamics
574      - add more sophisticated thermodynamics of Hellmer (1989), this is
575        now the default
576      - give a few constants more intuitive names
577    o add code to balance EmPmP and Qnet at the end of do_ocean_physics. Useful
578      if bulk formulae are used in long integration (especially EmPmR). Turn
579      on with balanceEmPmR = .true. or balanceQnet = .true. in data, PARM01
580      if balancePrintMean, the imbalance that is substracted is printed to
581      STDOUT.
582    o fix bug (typo) in obcs_apply_eta.F
583    o add a new package shelfice which enables us to model the circulation
584      underneath shelf-ice with draughts of hundreds of meters.
585     - works
586     - to do: + include improved thermodynamics
587              + check whether kSurfC (from model/inc/SURFACE.h) can be used
588                instead of new field kTopC
589              + can we use topoFile, Ro_surf and existing code in ini_depth.F
590                instead of new field R_shelfIce and new code in ini_depth.F
591                and ini_mask_etc.F?
592              + adjust vertical mixing schemes?
593    o seaice pkg:
594     - add a cpp-flag to include a simple formula for a salinity dependent
595       freezing point of sea water at the surface
596     - change the contents of SEAICE_TEST_ICE_STRESS_1 so that zonal and
597       meridional stresses are now different (and hopefully correct)
598    o AIM pkg: change threshold on large-scale condensation to conserve Heat.
599       update results of aim.5l_LatLon test ; fix title & units of AIM diagnostics
600       and  change 3 diagnostics names (OSR,OSRCLR,KM -> TSR,TSRCLR,DRAG)
601    o pkg/diagnostics: add options and parameters for regional-statistics
602       diagnostics ; define regions by reading a region-mask from a file
603       (might add other options later)
604    o pkg/bulk_force:
605     - add option and parameters to use AIM surface-flux formulae.
606     - Change loading part: S/R BULKF_FIELDS_LOAD only take care of bulkf_fields ;
607       others forcing fields (defined in PARM05, parameter file "data") are loaded
608       from S/R EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD, as usually (with useBulkforce = T or F).
609     - initialise all bulkf_fields in bulkf_init.F ; do in-lining of exf_bulkcdn.F
610     - use the right EXCH call for uwind,vwind (to work on CS-grid).
611     - re-arrange header files (move parameters from BULKF.h to BULKF_PARAMS.h)
612       and parameters (note: calcWindStress replaces .NOT.readwindstress).
613     - cleaner interface with pkg/thSIce (new S/R THSICE_GET_PRECIP).
614    
615    checkpoint58
616    o add "--embed-source" option to genmake2 which, when the supporting
617      tools can be compiled (as determined by genmake2) will turn on the
618      embed_files package which then embeds the entire MITgcm source code
619      (*.[fFhc] + Makefile) used for the build within the executable
620      - requested by CNH but off by default
621      - adds a paltry <9MB to the mitgcmuv executable in most cases
622      - only writes the output when useEMBEDSRC in eedata is true
623    o clean up 3-dim. relaxation codes:
624      * Fix I/O inconsistency in pkg/rbcs: replace precFloat32 by readBinaryPrec
625      * Remove 3-dim. relaxation code from pkg/exf (now use only pkg/rbcs)
626      * Thanks to Tom Haine for testing!
627    
628    checkpoint57z_post
629    o make CG3D solver compatible with Free-surface at k > 1 (p-coordinate):
630      affects output (@ truncation level) of exp. plume_on_slope ; updated.
631    o fix the pickup behavior for obcs in combination with ptracers
632    o fix a bug in ptracers_external_fields_load
633    o no AB-2 at the first iteration for Gw (consistent with Gu,Gv,Gt,Gs ...)
634      affects results of NH experiments (but all our NH tests have Gw[it=1]==0 !!)
635    o transfered surface NH pressure to eta field (if exactConserv).
636    o gmredi: fix bugs in slope tapering ldd97 (depthZ had the wrong sign)
637         and update lab_sea output.txt file.
638    o completing 3-dim. relaxation code: additional term
639         1/tau*( theta(i,j,k) - thetaStar(i,j,k) )
640      in S/R EXTERNAL_FORCING_T (file external_forcing.F)
641      * At compile time, in "EXF_OPTIONS.h" set
642          #define  ALLOW_CLIMTEMP_RELAXATION
643          #define  ALLOW_CLIMSALT_RELAXATION
644      * At runtime in "data", under &PARM03 set (e.g., units in seconds)
645          tauThetaClimRelax3Dim = 15552000.0,
646          tauSaltClimRelax3Dim  = 15552000.0,
647      * 3 cases:
648          1) Use a constant-in-time 3-dim. field
649          2) Provide 12 3-dim. fields corresponding to Jan., ... , Dec.
650          3) Real-time relax. to time-evolving prescribed field
651    o Adding Laplacian-type smoothness constraint on
652      initial and boundary (forcing) controls (ic, bc)
653      * enable at compile-time via
654        ALLOW_SMOOTH_IC_COST_CONTRIBUTION, ALLOW_SMOOTH_BC_COST_CONTRIBUTION
655      * enable at run-time via mult_smooth_ic = 1, mult_smooth_bc = 1
656      * Absolute scale somewhat unclear so far
657      * no area weighting was included since no other cost term does so far
658    
659    checkpoint57y_post
660    First step for a NLFS adjoint
661    o initially suppress rStar (new flag DISABLE_RSTAR_CODE)
662    o new init. routines for calc_r_star, calc_surf_dr
663    o still need to deal with ini_masks_etc
664    o testreport seemed happy
665    checkpoint57y_pre
666    
667    o obcs: always reset wVel & eta (to zero or prescribe it) at the OBs.
668    o add new package rbcs (for relaxing ptracers at boundaries/depth/surface etc)
669    o add new offset feature to offline pkg (plus minor cleanup)
670    o cfc fixes for final year of integration
671    o clean up GCHEM_OPTIONS.h/DIC_OPTIONS.h (all options should
672      be in GCHEM_OPTIONS).
673    
674    checkpoint57x_post
675    o fix testreport Pb in multiple test experiment.
676    o cleanup our namelist syntax in verification:
677      - make it more F95 standards compliant (some work still needed)
678      - allows the vast majority of our tests to work with gfortran
679    o Non-Hydrostatic:
680     - put all NH variables (formerly in DYNVARS.h & GW.h) in NH_VARS.h
681     - fix exchange calls for CS-grid using the new EXCH_S3D_RL.
682    o Allow to apply AB on T,S rather than on AB(gT,gS):
683     - implemented within #ifdef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3
684     - use the same arrays (gtNm,gsNm) to hold tracer field at previous
685       time-steps (if AB(T,S)) and tendencies (if AB(gT,gS)).
686     - need a "clever" read_pickup to restart from the other AB formulation
687    o move local commom bloc /GlobalLo/ (used for singleCpuIO) in EESUPPORT.h
688    o remove some unused variables (reduces number of compiler warnings)
689    o adjoint
690      * Disable useVariableViscosity for adjoint for time being
691        (there are a number of extensive recomputations)
692      * Initialize certain variables needed for adjoint
693    
694    checkpoint57w_post
695    o pkg/mdsio: use MAX_LEN_FNAM (instead of hard coded 80) for file-names
696                 fix the singleCpuIO RS version of MDSWRITEFIELD
697       and add a WARNING if using globalFiles=T with multi-processors.
698    o write grid-file(s) in only one format (MDS or MNC): default=MNC (if
699      using MNC); can force MDS output by setting writegrid_mnc=F in data.mnc
700    o tracer advection scheme:
701      add DST-2 (=Lax-Wendroff) & 1rst order upwind schemes (the way to get
702       those 2 schemes before, changing GAD_FLUX_LIMITER.h + to recompile,
703       was not very convenient).
704      add implicit version for DST-3 & DST3_Flux_Limit vertical advection;  
705       (further tests needed for the implicit DST & Flux-Limiter schemes).
706    o PTRACERS: added namelist parameter PTRACERS_ref in analogy to tRef
707      and sRef for convenience, handy, when you want to initialize
708      ptracers in a large domain with a constant non-zero value. Also,
709      untangle ptracers_init.F a little.
710    
711    checkpoint57v_post
712    o change dome exp. to use variable viscosity in side-drag terms.
713    o remove all the files from the cfc_offline test since they are now
714      incorporated into tutorial_cfc_offline which has been producing
715      identical results for a few days of testing
716    o add new parameter: sideDragFactor to enable half-slip-side BC
717      and change side-drag S/R to use viscosity from mom_calc_visc
718      (can switch back by setting sideDragFactor=0.); affects results at
719      truncation level; regenerate output for exp.: global_ocean.cs32x10(x3),
720       global_ocean_ebm, global_ocean_pressure, matrix_example & MLAdjust(x5).
721    o vorticity & strain are now computed without masking, to account for
722      no-slip-side BC in variable viscosity calculation ; mask is applied
723      anyway later on, before computing advection/coriolis terms.
724    o modify exp4 to test new obcs support for reading from external files
725      and for passive tracers
726    o fix behavior of ptracers_monitor when monitor output is written to a
727      netcdf-file; still not independent of monitor.F (writes in the same
728      file).
729    o change default value of tRef (put a uniform, meaningful value for ocean
730      & atmos) and initialize sRef (was missing, as Martin mentioned).
731    o Redefine viscC?Leith*.  Change the coefficients of Leith viscosity
732      to be proportional to enstrophy dissipation length.  Thus,
733       viscC?leith?_new=pi*(viscC?leith?_old)^(1/3)
734      This is now consistent with Smagorinsky and with the manual.
735    
736    checkpoint57u_post
737    o OBCS and PTRACERS: add open boundary support for passive tracers
738      - either use homogenous (pseudo) v.Neumann conditions or prescribe
739        OB-values from file; this is not different from the way theta and salinity
740        are treated
741      - however, Orlanski-radiation conditions are not supported, and the model
742        will stop if you use pTracers and Orlanski at the same time.
743      - beefed up the rountine obcs_external_fields_load: now only those open
744        boundary values are overwritten with values from files for which there
745        are really files, otherwise the OB-fields remain untouched. This makes
746        it possible to use different OBs at different ends of the domain (as
747        with EXF)
748    o reduce number of exch calls in shap_filt (s2).
749    o CS-grid: fix divergence contribution to Leith viscosity. Affects (@
750      truncation level) 4/5 MLAdjust test results (11&12 digits match).
751    
752    checkpoint57t_post
753    o test biharmonic viscosity + no-slip with exp: global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
754    o finish adding brackets (coriolis S/R, vecinv) in multi-terms sum to get
755      same truncation, independent of the face number: affects affects several
756      test. exp.: Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
757    o fix bug in mom_v_sidedrag (biharmonic viscosity was counted 2 times);
758      note that biharmonic viscosity + no-slip was not tested in any experiment.
759    o fix bug in non-linear free-surf side-drag ; generate new output for
760      global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & global_ocean_pressure.
761    o make mnc honor the writeBinaryPrec flag for most kinds of output
762    o eesupp: split EEPARAMS into EESIZE/EEPARAMS and add a vector global sum
763    o minor change in averaging W (mom_vi_?_vertshear.F) that affects truncation
764      error; update output from global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
765    o add brackets in multi-terms sum to get same truncation, independent of
766      the face number (manage to get exactly same value of gU,gV at the cs-edge)
767      affects several test. exp. Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice).
768    o Clean, new version of mom_calc_visc.  Adds a new feature, viscAhRemax
769      and viscA4Remax, which allow one to limit the minimum viscosity by specifying
770      a maximum grid-scale Reynolds number.  Also, changes all length calculations
771      in the case of grid anisotropy to geometric mean of dx**2 and dy**2.
772      Suggested values of viscosity parameters found in mom_calc_visc.
773      Many new viscosity diagnostics available.
774    
775    checkpoint57s_post
776    o Add clearing-house for viscosity calculations, mom_calc_visc and
777      correct numerous bugs in LeithD and Smagorinsky discretizations.  
778      mom_calc_visc now allows for Smagorinsky, Leith and LeithD to be
779      used simultaneously, and to be used in mom_vecinv and mom_fluxform.
780      Mom_vecinv can be used with standard viscous calculation (mom_vi_hdissip.F)
781      and with Strain-Tension viscous term calculation (mom_hdissip.F).  
782      The Strain-Tension form is now called with useStrainTensonVisc=.true.
783      ViscAhStrain and viscAhTension are now retired.
784    o diagnostics "VISCAHD" & "VISCA4D" replace "VISCAH" & "VISCA4".
785    o In response to JMC's bug report, genmake2 now ignores any soft-links
786      that it finds in the *current* directory when searching for files.
787      Soft-links found in any other source directories will still work as
788      they did before.
789    o add HAVE_SETRLSTK define and useSETRLSTK flag (eedata) which calls
790      a C routine to unlimit the stack size
791    o mnc-ify pkg/aim snapshot vars
792    o mnc-ify pkg/land as requested by Daniel
793    o various changes to mnc including:
794      - all files use the new "BASENAME[[.ITER].{t|f}NUM].nc" format
795      - output can now be grouped so that all files within a group
796          change the ITER portion of their names in lock-step together
797      - can now read ("global") PER-FACE (in addition to PER-TILE) files
798          and works with both EXCH1 and EXCH2 (but needs more testing)
799      - writing works for all verification test cases w/ g77 on Linux
800    
801    checkpoint57r_post
802    o make MNC variable initialization happen earlier
803    o add diagnostics for (almost) each term of the momentum Eq.
804    o remove SST,SSS,UVEL_k2,VVEL_k2 diagnostics.
805    o move pkg timeave out of pkg-groups "oceanic" & "atmospheric" (pkg/pkg_groups)
806    o remove MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT option ;
807      add "dumpInitAndLast" to replace "nodumps" (and MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT).
808    o move some basic S/R (used elsewhere in the code) from pkg/mdsio to eesupp/src
809      allows to compile without pkg/mdsio (& test successfully hs94.1x64x5)
810    o add MNC output for adjoint of EXF (adexf), SEAICE (adseaice)
811    o add time-dependent SST, SSS control
812    o cost terms in ecco/ modularized (new cost_generic.F)
813    o cost_averages routines are modularized (new cost_averagesgeneric.F)
814    o new infrastructure for seaice model vs. obs misfits in seaice/
815      * driver from the_main_loop.F is seaice_cost_driver.F
816      * first term is AREA vs. SMR observation misfit (ALLOW_SEAICE_COST_SMR_AREA)
817      * gradient check in Exp. 6a of natl_box_adjoint/
818    o natl_box_adjoint input_seaice for Lab. Sea now available online via wget
819      (see README file)
820    
821    checkpoint57q_post
822    o fix initialisation Pb in calc_gw (get NANs in exp5 with g77)
823    o fix annoying months-old bug in mnc/mdsio output for seaice pkg
824      - bug was reported by Jean-Michel and Ian Fenty
825    o fix initialization Pb in AIM-Ocean coupled model (aim_sice2aim.F)
826      update exp. cpl_aim+ocn output.
827    o Implement 4-level checkpointing: AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
828      Needed for high-res. runs with large global files
829      to be able to limit tapelev size
830    o Changed some tests for adjoint:
831      * carbon/ now tests AUTODIFF_2_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
832      * natl_box_adjoint/code_bulk/ tests AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
833      * global_ocean.90x40x15/ back to default 3-level checkpointing
834    o Modifications to enable scripted COMMON to MODULE conversion
835      * verification/OpenAD/code/ has necessary scripts and description;
836      * converts, compiles and runs successfully;
837    
838    checkpoint57p_post
839    o reading of delXfile & delYfile moved from ini_parms.F to ini_grid.F
840    o move ${PKG}_MNC_INIT from ${PKG}_READ_PARAMS to ${PKG}_INIT_FIXED
841      (already the case for some pkgs, including recent MNC_init, e.g. thsice)
842    o call CALC_GW from DYNAMICS (instead of from FORWARD_STEP)
843    o Dissipation & phiHyd gradient are always added to gU,gV in timestep.F
844      (was already the case for dissipation with mom_vecinv,
845       and also the case for grad.PhiHyd when staggered-timeStep)
846      This will allow to put dissipation out-off the AB time-stepping.
847     Unfortunately, affects truncation error. Update output of exp. that "fails"
848      (cg2d matching number) and leave the others for later: front_relax(10),
849      global_ocean_pressure(10),ideal_2D_oce(10),internal_wave(9),lab_sea(12),
850      matrix_example(7!),natl_box(12),plume_on_slope(11),vermix(12x3,11x2).
851    
852    checkpoint57o_post
853    o fix MNC/MDSIO flags in PTRACERS so that (1) it works, and
854      (2) its ready to be documented during the 20050801 DocFest
855    o MNC-ify the gmredi package -- tested and works w/ and w/o mnc
856      for ideal_2D_oce and lab_sea on linux_ia32_g77
857    o set to #undef CTRL_SET_OLD_MAXCVARS_30
858      in global1x1_tot/code_seaice_adj to access indices 32, 33
859      (worth another tag)
860    
861    checkpoint57n_post
862    o adding precip control xx_precip 32
863    o adding swflux control xx_swflux 33
864    o Replacing 10 forcing penalty cost routines by 1 generic.
865    o Implementing partitioning in time-mean and variable adjustment
866      for atmos. state.
867    o Time-mean constant error is now read in data.ecco (instead of hard-coded)
868    o in natl_box_adjoint:
869      * updated exp 1 to 10
870        (but does not have time-mean vs. variable split results yet)
871    o updated global1x1/*_seaice_adj/
872      to incorporate latest changes
873    o enable useSingleCpuIO for mdsio vector routines
874      (applies in particular to tapelev I/O)
875    o removed inefficient K-loop in all active_file*control*.F
876    
877    checkpoint57m_post
878    o re-arrange exp. adjustment.cs-32x32x1 (adjust_nlfs.cs-32x32x1 merge into)
879      and advect_cs (use EXCH-2 and standard cs-32 grid files).
880    o pkg/exch2: filling of face-corner halo regions is optional
881      (ifdef W2_FILL_NULL_REGIONS) and is turned off by default.
882    
883    checkpoint57l_post
884     tag before updating tutorials (pre-release-2)
885    o add cos & sin of grid-direction orientation angle (curvilinear grid only,
886       for output and interpolation of input fields onto model grid)
887    o fix radius in mom_v_metric_cylinder.F (wrong by dy/2).
888       Affects results of exp. rotating_tank ; update output.txt.
889    o pkg/diagnostics: 2 new S/R to fill a diagnostics using a scaling factor
890          and taking the square quantity and/or using a fraction-weight field.
891    o fix aim_diagnostics_init.F mate numbers.
892    o add mnc output capability to diagnostics/diagstat and update
893      our cvsignore files for the ACSII output generated

897      new EXF diagnostics output.
898    
899    checkpoint57j_post
900    o exf
901      * bug fix in exf_bulkformulae for psimh (spotted by Eliyahu Biton):
902        Bracket missing in eqn. for psimh (eqn. 7 of Large & Pond, 1982);
903        terms -2*ATAN(x) + pi/2 were added to both stable and unstable case.
904      * extended diagnostics output
905        - now includes all EXF variables
906        - hs, hl moved to common block
907        - separate S/R for diagnostics, called after ctrl vector is added
908        - name changed for EXFsw -> EXFswnet, EXFlw -> EXFlwnet
909        - EXFqnet contains true Qnet (i.e. includes qsw)
910      * updated verif. lab_sea, global_with_exf
911      * Rearranging hflux (exf_mapfields -> exf_getforcing)
912        to ensure that diagnostics sees a true EXFqnet
913    o add matlab scripts for CS-grid vectors (in utils/cs_grid)
914    o diagnostics pkg: change pointers so that 1 diagnostic can be used
915      several times with different frequencies.
916    o mnc-ify the thsice package as requested by Daniel Enderton
917      - the monitor--MNC output needs work
918      - many attributes need to be added (most are currently blank)
919    o mnc-ify theaim_v23 package as requested by Daniel Enderton
920      - many attributes need to be added (most are currently blank)
921    o remove "groundAtK1" & "rkFac" (replaced by usingPCoords & -rkSign)
922    o add Sadourny like discretization to the 4th.O vorticity advection scheme
923    o fix bug in rStar code (calc_r_star.F) when used with topo/bathy.
924      update output.txt from: aim.5l_cs (& .thSI), cpl_aim+ocn,
925         fizhi-gridalt-hs and global_ocean.cs32x15 (& .thsice).
926    o fix few little things to avoid floating error with -ftrapuv (ifort v9)
927     (ini_spherical_polar_grid.F, calc_r_star.F, monitor/mon_surfcor.F)
928    
929    checkpoint57i_post
930    o Diagnostics package was changed: diagnostic allocation is now deactivated
931      by setting an empty file name in the namelist (used to be by setting 0 frequency)
932    o momentum advection (VI form) options: activate 4th.O vorticity Coriolis ;
933      add 1rst Order upwind vertical Shear.
934    o add a quick fix for A/B checkpointing in OFFLINE mode
935    o add IGNORE_TIME define and -ignore_time option to genmake2 as an
936      end-run around the C/Fortran linking horror in eesup/src/timers.F
937    o added pkg/runclock: allows user to terminate run based on wall clock
938    o added non-hydrostatic scaling parameter: nh_am2
939    o pkg/my82: futile attempt to make results compiler-independent by adding
940      some "_d 0", etc. no effect.
941    o for mnc output, fill the 'T' coordinate var with myTime and create a
942      separate 'iter' variable for iteration count
943    o pkg/diagnostics:
944      add new capability: output of Global/Regional & per-level statistics ;
945      tested against monitor output (including land & thSIce) on various exp.

952    o pkg/diagnostics: prepare for Global/Regional statistics.
953      add 2nd namelist in data.diagnostics and update DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h
954    o remove "baseTime" (no used) from arg. list of DIFF_BASE_MULTIPLE
955      and rename it: DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE
956    
957    checkpoint57h_post
958    o move tIter0 from data.gchem to PTRACERS_Iter0 in data.ptracers
959    o pkg/diagnostics: change output frequency, now in seconds (instead
960      of Nb of iterations). This requires to change data.diagnostics.
961    checkpoint57h_pre
962    
963    o in mnc, let the user create the output dir if both mnc_outdir_date
964      and mnc_outdir_num are false
965    o add fflags() to pkg/diagnostics which allows one to specify, on a
966      per-file basis, the file precision [default behavior is unchanged]
967    o added diagnostics to pkg/kpp, including computation of mixed layer
968      depth based on a temperature/density criterion
969    o updated verification/natl_box to test the new pkg/kpp diagnostics
970    o bugs fixed (with useAbsVorticity=T & with useJamartMomAdv=T)
971    o test AB-3 code with 4th.Order advection scheme (advect_xy/input.ab3_c4)
972    o fix mnc flags in pkg/seaice so that they are "owned" by seaice,
973      not mnc -- this mistake was found by JMC and is now corrected
974    
975    checkpoint57g_post
976    o add Adams-Bashforth 3rd Order time stepping:
977      - default remains AB-2 (#undef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3)
978      - not yet implemented with NH, CD_Scheme, pTracers, MNC_pickup ...
979    checkpoint57g_pre
980    
981    o make lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax spatially varying
982      (default remains spatially uniform constant based on tau)
983    o added new control variables
984      * init. uVel, vVel, etanN
985      * lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax
986    o separate masks used for ctrl_pack/unpack 'from write_grid' output
987      (suggested by G. Forget)

1000    o added modified Leith scheme with viscosity proportional to grad(Hdiv)
1001      as well as grad(vort3).  Made it compatible with both approximate form
1002      for the cubed sphere and full form of these gradients.  Added flag
1003      useFullLeith to select between approximate and full form.  
1004    o add "d0" in getcon.F to reduce differences between compilers/platforms
1005      update output.txt of exp. fizhi-gridalt-hs
1006    o change port_rand funtion to allow to set the seed.
1007    o fix obscure MNC bug involving conversion between reals and integers
1008      - it caused no problems with certain (eg. gcc, ifc) compilers but the
1009        new version is now more standards-compliant
1010    o adjoint-related modifications
1011      * gad_dst3_adv_?: to be able to use advscheme=30 in adjoint
1012      * gad_calc_rhs: fool adjoint, revert to advscheme=30 in reverse when using 33

1024      (360-372 days) for parameters chkPtFreq, pChkPtFreq, taveFreq, SEAICE_taveFreq,
1025      KPP_taveFreq, and freq in pkg/diagnostics are converted to exact calendar
1026      months and years.  Requires pkg/cal.
1027    o diagnostics: add pickup functionality
1028      - off by default for backwards compatibility
1029      - current version only uses MDSIO -- MNC will be added
1030    o allow to use pkg diagnostics for LAND pkg output & Shapiro Tendencies.
1031    o pkg/shap_filt: fix for multi-tiles per face (CS-grid with EXCH2)
1032

1034    o pkg/thsice used in the ocean: fix tile Pb related to sIceLoad forcing
1035    o modify verification/ideal_2D_oce so that it tests the creation of mnc
1036      output from the diagnostics package
1037    o temporary fix in EXCH2_UV: add a 3rd call to fix the 24.tiles CS-grid set-up
1038    o make genmake2 more portable by using ".$FS" instead of ".f" for more
1039      of the test compilations (eg. IBM xlf on Mac OSX w/HFS filesys)
1040    o add coordinate variables to the MNC output from the diagnostics package
1041    o change MNC-flags default value: true when useMNC=TRUE
1042    o add a "readgrid_mnc" flag to MNC and give model/src/ini_curvilinear_grid.F
1043      the ability (off by default) to read the grid information using MNC
1044    o lab_sea: use LSR_ERROR=1.E-12 for testing ; update output.txt
1045    o diagnostics: fix a bug (sub-set of levels); keep full precision when averaging
1046    o do snap-shot diagnostics at the middle of the time-interval (instead of
1047      at the end).
1048    o update exp. aim.5l_cs (use default LAND_OPTIONS.h file) and add
1049      new test for AIM with thSIce + slab-ocean
1050    o cpl_aim+ocn test: update output (optfile & default GMREDI_OPTIONS.h)
1051    o move state variable diagnostics to the beginning of the time step ;
1052      (note: still needs some work specially for snap-shot diagnostics)
1053      duplicate & replace UVELVVEL diagnostics with UV_VEL_C & UV_VEL_Z
1054    
1055    checkpoint57c_post

1061      update output.txt of exp. global_ocean.90x40x15
1062    o fix in ini_eos.F (one "_d 0" was missing): now g77 & ifc give much closer
1063      results; update global_ocean_pressure & global_ocean.cs32x15 output.txt
1064    o add saltFlux(+File) forcing capability with periodicExternalForcing
1065    o allow to use pkg diagnostics for GM-Redi & ThSIce output
1066    o diagnostics_fill: fill in up to sNx+1 or sNy+1 (if U,V or Z pt) for mnc.
1067    o improvements for the MNC output from DIAGNOSTICS:
1068      - correct handling of the unlimitied dimension
1069      - all dims now have associated coordinate variables
1070      - variables located at U, V, and Corner ("Z") points are now written
1071        with the correct horzontal dimensions (eg. 'Xp1', 'Yp1') so that
1072        *all* data points are output
1073    o added seaice_summary.F and removed obsolete ALLOW_SEAICE's from pkg/seaice
1074    o added pkg/seaice/seaice_monitor.F
1075    o mdsio_readfield.F can now read files visible only to master MPI process.
1076    o pkg/seaice: some test code for ice-modified ocean stress
1077    o exf_getffields interpolation defaults to bilinear for all scalar forcing
1078      fields (remains bicubic for wind velocity and stress).  This avoids, e.g.,
1079      spurious negative numbers for precipitation and humidity.  Will cause
1080      some small numerical differences for integrations using pkg/exf/exf_interp.F.
1081    o pkg/ctrl/
1082      * Add ctrlvec diagnostics in pack/unpack for nondimensional I/O
1083        May be enabled via doPackDiag
1084      *  introduce z-scaling of
1085         + gradient (doZscalePack) and
1086         + control (doZscaleUnpack)
1087    o pkg/mdsio/
1088      * enable useSingleCpuIO for state estimation (ctrl_pack/unpack) mdsio_gl.F
1089      * N.B.: leave tiled I/O for tapelev (i.e. mds...vector)
1090    
1091    checkpoint57b_post
1092    o simplify options in diagnostics_fill arguments (remove weird combinations)
1093    o fix MNC coordinate variables so that they now contain per-face index
1094      values (instead of xC,xG,yC,yG values) when run with EXCH2 since, in
1095      general, EXCH2 grids are only aligned to a "local" coordinate system
1096    o test diagnostics pkg in dic_example (no output) and ideal_2D_oce (with ouput)
1097    o Implement instantaneous output within pkg diagnostics:
1098      setting a negative frequency in data.diagnostics produces
1099     "snap-shot" output (as opposed to time-average if freq > 0)
1100    o move out off EQUIVALENCE all diagnostics that fizhi does not use ;
1101      NOTE: change ptracer diagnostics name: use 2 characters to work with
1102            more than 9 tracers. Add also diagnostics of advect & diffus flux.
1103    o more CF compliance: convert all MNC 'iter' variables to 'T' so that it
1104      becomes the coordinate variable for the 'T' dimension
1105    o add CF-style coordinate variables to MNC
1106      - just a first cut:  numbers are meaningless on the cubesphere and
1107        missing along the T axis but otherwise it works!
1108    o add surface flux diagnostics: TAUX, TAUY, TFLUX, TRELAX, TICE, SFLUX, SRELAX
1109    o pkg/thSIce: read initial state from 6 files ; allow monitor to use MNC.
1110    o add diagnostics of advective & diffusive flux for T & S (pTracers coming soon)
1111      this is based directly on what the model compute, so that the content of
1112      each diagnostics might be affected by switching options (e.g., implicitDiffusion)
1113    o small changes for diagnostics (gad_biharm_?.F, arguments of S/R impldiff.F)
1114    o clean up build options files for SunOS, in particular
1115      - remove -traditional from xmakedepend
1116      - change -xarch=v9 to -xarch=native for f77
1117      - restore use of make (not gmake)
1118      - add CC=gcc if using g77
1119    o changes per discussion of AM, JMC, & EH3 today:
1120      - move redundant "grid" variables out of "state" -- in preparation of
1121        creating proper CF-style coordinate variables and in recognition
1122        that any/all grid variables can be easily copied (eg. w/NCO) from
1123        the grid files into any of the other NetCDF files
1124      - *always* output grid variables with MDSIO (this will eventually be
1125        changed)
1126      - output MNC grid file if useMNC is true
1127    o every instance of _END_MASTER() has been found and replaced with
1128      _END_MASTER( myThid ) in order to satisfy certain picky Sun
1129      preprocessors
1130    o re-arrange diagnostics pkg initialisation:
1131     - allow each package to extend the available diagnostics list
1132     - add some checking and fix small problems (multi-threaded, ...)
1133     - new S/R diagnostics_fill (replace fill_diagnostics):
1134       look through the short list of active diag. (instead of the long list)
1135       create function DIAGNOSTICS_IS_ON to tell if a diagnostics is active
1136    
1137    checkpoint57a_post
1138    o this set of changes restores TAMC compatibility
1139      tested for global_ocean.90x40x15 adjoint on trough
1140      (what a pain)
1141    
1142    checkpoint57a_pre
1143    o some modifs in tools/build_options for sunos
1144    o call ctrl_pack for ctrl at end for optimcycle=0
1145    
1146    checkpoint57
1147    o add horizontal bi-harmonic viscosity for vertical velocity
1148      - new parameter viscA4W (defaults to viscA4)
1149      - affects only non-hydrostatic code
1150      - to be done: no-slip lateral boundary conditions
1151    o switch back to "sflux = sflux - runoff" in exf_getforcing.F
1152    o implement Implicit Vertical advection for pTracers
1153    o depth convergence accelerator: replace deltaTtracer by dTtracerLev(k)
1154      (implemented also for implicit vertical diffusion & advection)
1155    o OBCS: extend application of tracer open boundary conditions
1156      to a strip beyond the boundary of width Olx/Oly
1157    o add call monitor to TAF set of required calls (flow directives)
1158      and include in natl_box_adjoint
1159    o untangle a few ifdefs related to cost, ctrl, autodiff
1160      untangel a few ALLOW_ECCO_OPTIMIZATION
1161    o Apply Cooper & Haines representative estimates also at sub-surface (k=Nr)
1162      (theta2, salt2 in ecco_cost_weights)
1163    
1164    checkpoint56c_post
1165    o OBCS as control variables
1166      - update ctrl_ad_diff.list, obcs_ad_diff.list
1167      - remove balance of obcs controls from default
1168      - fix index bug nobcs in ctrl_init
1169      - fix dummy fields filen in ctrl_pack
1170      - add dummy weights for obcs
1171    o lsopt: comment out fort.94 output
1172    o optim:
1173      - remove unnecessary header files
1174      - adjusted namelists
1175      - add xerbla.F to Makefile
1176    o exf:
1177      - multiple modifications of exf_check_range
1178      - unit change in exf_init_runoff from [m/year] to [m/s]
1179    o mdsio:
1180      - i/o-vector change debugLevel from debLevA to debLevB
1181    
1182    checkpoint56b_post
1183    o collect all ptracers output in an new routine (PTRACERS_OUTPUT) that
1184      is called from DO_THE_MODEL_IO
1185      - rename PTRACERS_STATV_WRITE to PTRACERS_WRITE_TIMEAVE
1186      - introduce new parameter PTRACERS_dumpFreq (defaults to dumpFreq)
1187      - clean up PTRACERS_WRITE_TIMEAVE a little
1188    o add another verification experiment that tests both the cfc-pkg and
1189      the gchem-pkg with GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING undefined, that is with
1190      reactive tendencies treated inline with regular timestepping
1191    o testreport previously did a lousy job of comparing small numbers, so
1192      we (Ed and Martin) changed the  way the cut-off of 1.e-12 is
1193      implemented in the little c-progam tmp_cmpnum.c which is embedded in
1194      testreport.
1195    o ptracers_monitor: bug fix for MPI
1196    
1197    checkpoint56a_post
1198    o GCHEM: finish reorganizating the package
1199      - forward_step calls GCHEM_CALC_TENDENDY, which computes gchemTendency
1200        (introduces another 3D-array for each passive tracer, but only if
1201        GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING is undefined. For GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING
1202        gchemTendency is not needed because the timestep is done separately)
1203      - gchemTendency is added to gPtr in GCHEM_ADD_TENDENCY
1204      - GCHEM is now---more or less cleanly---separate from PTRACERS
1205      - to bo done: handling of surfaceForcingPtr that is needed for KPP not
1206        so clear to me how that should be done in a general way.
1207    o CFC: improve formatting of output in CFC_ATMOS
1208    o PTRACERS:
1209      - rename GCHEM_MONITOR to PTRACERS_MONITOR and call it from MONITOR, so
1210        that ALL experiments with ptracers enable can be checked. This makes
1211        GCHEM_MONITOR obsolete.
1212      - include a runtime parameter PTRACERS_monitorFreq that defaults to
1213        monitorFreq
1214      - set default PTRACERS_write_mdsio to false if PTRACERS_write_mnc is true
1215    o add PTRACERS (PTR0[1-5]) to testreport output
1216    o exf_check_range:
1217      * default changed to .TRUE.
1218      * will check values for niter0 if debLevA, every timestep if debLevB
1219      * STOP in exf_check_range if 'out of range'
1220      * range chosen generous to allow for potential extema
1221      TBD: a version with stricter range
1222           permitted range would be runtime parameters
1223  o GMredi:  o GMredi:
1224    - fix ldd97 slope limit ; extend valid domain of Psi-Bolus ;    - fix ldd97 slope limit ; extend valid domain of Psi-Bolus ;
1225    - 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.
# Line 11  o GCHEM: Line 1228  o GCHEM:

1230    - introduced a useGCHEM runtime flag and applied it everywhere.    - introduced a useGCHEM runtime flag and applied it everywhere.
1231      - renamed PTRACERS_SEPARATE_FORCING to GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING;
1232        this flag is now only visible within GCHEM-pkg routines.
1233      - moved gchem_forcing_int temporarily into ptracers_forcing, this will
1234        be replaced by a 3D array that is computed before thermodynamics; for
1235        this, the tracer ID iTracer had to be included into the parameter list
1236        of ptracers_forcing
1237      - set up forward_step to call gchem_forcing, that will replace
1238        gchem_forcing_int in ptracers_forcing
1239      - cleaning up
1240  o small cleaning of exch2: remove files that are also in eesupp/src  o small cleaning of exch2: remove files that are also in eesupp/src
