5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o make CG3D solver compatible with Free-surface at k > 1 (p-coordinate):
8      affects output (@ truncation level) of exp. plume_on_slope ; updated.
9    o fix the pickup behavior for obcs in combination with ptracers
10    o fix a bug in ptracers_external_fields_load
11    o no AB-2 at the first iteration for Gw (consistent with Gu,Gv,Gt,Gs ...)
12      affects results of NH experiments (but all our NH tests have Gw[it=1]==0 !!)
13    o transfered surface NH pressure to eta field (if exactConserv).
14    o gmredi: fix bugs in slope tapering ldd97 (depthZ had the wrong sign)
15         and update lab_sea output.txt file.
16    o completing 3-dim. relaxation code: additional term
17         1/tau*( theta(i,j,k) - thetaStar(i,j,k) )
18      in S/R EXTERNAL_FORCING_T (file external_forcing.F)
19      * At compile time, in "EXF_OPTIONS.h" set
20          #define  ALLOW_CLIMTEMP_RELAXATION
21          #define  ALLOW_CLIMSALT_RELAXATION
22      * At runtime in "data", under &PARM03 set (e.g., units in seconds)
23          tauThetaClimRelax3Dim = 15552000.0,
24          tauSaltClimRelax3Dim  = 15552000.0,
25      * 3 cases:
26          1) Use a constant-in-time 3-dim. field
27          2) Provide 12 3-dim. fields corresponding to Jan., ... , Dec.
28          3) Real-time relax. to time-evolving prescribed field
29    o Adding Laplacian-type smoothness constraint on forcing controls
30      * enable at compile-time via ALLOW_SMOOTH_BOUNDARY_CTRL_COST
31      * enable at run-time via mult_smooth = 1
32      * Absolute scale somewhat unclear so far
33      * no area weighting was included since no other cost term does so far
34    
35    checkpoint57y_post
36    First step for a NLFS adjoint
37    o initially suppress rStar (new flag DISABLE_RSTAR_CODE)
38    o new init. routines for calc_r_star, calc_surf_dr
39    o still need to deal with ini_masks_etc
40    o testreport seemed happy
41    checkpoint57y_pre
42    
43    o obcs: always reset wVel & eta (to zero or prescribe it) at the OBs.
44    o add new package rbcs (for relaxing ptracers at boundaries/depth/surface etc)
45    o add new offset feature to offline pkg (plus minor cleanup)
46    o cfc fixes for final year of integration
47    o clean up GCHEM_OPTIONS.h/DIC_OPTIONS.h (all options should
48      be in GCHEM_OPTIONS).
49    
50    checkpoint57x_post
51    o fix testreport Pb in multiple test experiment.
52    o cleanup our namelist syntax in verification:
53      - make it more F95 standards compliant (some work still needed)
54      - allows the vast majority of our tests to work with gfortran
55    o Non-Hydrostatic:
56     - put all NH variables (formerly in DYNVARS.h & GW.h) in NH_VARS.h
57     - fix exchange calls for CS-grid using the new EXCH_S3D_RL.
58    o Allow to apply AB on T,S rather than on AB(gT,gS):
59     - implemented within #ifdef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3
60     - use the same arrays (gtNm,gsNm) to hold tracer field at previous
61       time-steps (if AB(T,S)) and tendencies (if AB(gT,gS)).
62     - need a "clever" read_pickup to restart from the other AB formulation
63    o move local commom bloc /GlobalLo/ (used for singleCpuIO) in EESUPPORT.h
64    o remove some unused variables (reduces number of compiler warnings)
65    o adjoint
66      * Disable useVariableViscosity for adjoint for time being
67        (there are a number of extensive recomputations)
68      * Initialize certain variables needed for adjoint
69    
70    checkpoint57w_post
71    o pkg/mdsio: use MAX_LEN_FNAM (instead of hard coded 80) for file-names
72                 fix the singleCpuIO RS version of MDSWRITEFIELD
73       and add a WARNING if using globalFiles=T with multi-processors.
74    o write grid-file(s) in only one format (MDS or MNC): default=MNC (if
75      using MNC); can force MDS output by setting writegrid_mnc=F in data.mnc
76    o tracer advection scheme:
77      add DST-2 (=Lax-Wendroff) & 1rst order upwind schemes (the way to get
78       those 2 schemes before, changing GAD_FLUX_LIMITER.h + to recompile,
79       was not very convenient).
80      add implicit version for DST-3 & DST3_Flux_Limit vertical advection;  
81       (further tests needed for the implicit DST & Flux-Limiter schemes).
82    o PTRACERS: added namelist parameter PTRACERS_ref in analogy to tRef
83      and sRef for convenience, handy, when you want to initialize
84      ptracers in a large domain with a constant non-zero value. Also,
85      untangle ptracers_init.F a little.
86    
87    checkpoint57v_post
88    o change dome exp. to use variable viscosity in side-drag terms.
89    o remove all the files from the cfc_offline test since they are now
90      incorporated into tutorial_cfc_offline which has been producing
91      identical results for a few days of testing
92    o add new parameter: sideDragFactor to enable half-slip-side BC
93      and change side-drag S/R to use viscosity from mom_calc_visc
94      (can switch back by setting sideDragFactor=0.); affects results at
95      truncation level; regenerate output for exp.: global_ocean.cs32x10(x3),
96       global_ocean_ebm, global_ocean_pressure, matrix_example & MLAdjust(x5).
97    o vorticity & strain are now computed without masking, to account for
98      no-slip-side BC in variable viscosity calculation ; mask is applied
99      anyway later on, before computing advection/coriolis terms.
100    o modify exp4 to test new obcs support for reading from external files
101      and for passive tracers
102    o fix behavior of ptracers_monitor when monitor output is written to a
103      netcdf-file; still not independent of monitor.F (writes in the same
104      file).
105    o change default value of tRef (put a uniform, meaningful value for ocean
106      & atmos) and initialize sRef (was missing, as Martin mentioned).
107    o Redefine viscC?Leith*.  Change the coefficients of Leith viscosity
108      to be proportional to enstrophy dissipation length.  Thus,
109       viscC?leith?_new=pi*(viscC?leith?_old)^(1/3)
110      This is now consistent with Smagorinsky and with the manual.
111    
112    checkpoint57u_post
113    o OBCS and PTRACERS: add open boundary support for passive tracers
114      - either use homogenous (pseudo) v.Neumann conditions or prescribe
115        OB-values from file; this is not different from the way theta and salinity
116        are treated
117      - however, Orlanski-radiation conditions are not supported, and the model
118        will stop if you use pTracers and Orlanski at the same time.
119      - beefed up the rountine obcs_external_fields_load: now only those open
120        boundary values are overwritten with values from files for which there
121        are really files, otherwise the OB-fields remain untouched. This makes
122        it possible to use different OBs at different ends of the domain (as
123        with EXF)
124    o reduce number of exch calls in shap_filt (s2).
125    o CS-grid: fix divergence contribution to Leith viscosity. Affects (@
126      truncation level) 4/5 MLAdjust test results (11&12 digits match).
127    
128    checkpoint57t_post
129    o test biharmonic viscosity + no-slip with exp: global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
130    o finish adding brackets (coriolis S/R, vecinv) in multi-terms sum to get
131      same truncation, independent of the face number: affects affects several
132      test. exp.: Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
133    o fix bug in mom_v_sidedrag (biharmonic viscosity was counted 2 times);
134      note that biharmonic viscosity + no-slip was not tested in any experiment.
135    o fix bug in non-linear free-surf side-drag ; generate new output for
136      global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & global_ocean_pressure.
137    o make mnc honor the writeBinaryPrec flag for most kinds of output
138    o eesupp: split EEPARAMS into EESIZE/EEPARAMS and add a vector global sum
139    o minor change in averaging W (mom_vi_?_vertshear.F) that affects truncation
140      error; update output from global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
141    o add brackets in multi-terms sum to get same truncation, independent of
142      the face number (manage to get exactly same value of gU,gV at the cs-edge)
143      affects several test. exp. Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice).
144    o Clean, new version of mom_calc_visc.  Adds a new feature, viscAhRemax
145      and viscA4Remax, which allow one to limit the minimum viscosity by specifying
146      a maximum grid-scale Reynolds number.  Also, changes all length calculations
147      in the case of grid anisotropy to geometric mean of dx**2 and dy**2.
148      Suggested values of viscosity parameters found in mom_calc_visc.
149      Many new viscosity diagnostics available.
150    
151    checkpoint57s_post
152    o Add clearing-house for viscosity calculations, mom_calc_visc and
153      correct numerous bugs in LeithD and Smagorinsky discretizations.  
154      mom_calc_visc now allows for Smagorinsky, Leith and LeithD to be
155      used simultaneously, and to be used in mom_vecinv and mom_fluxform.
156      Mom_vecinv can be used with standard viscous calculation (mom_vi_hdissip.F)
157      and with Strain-Tension viscous term calculation (mom_hdissip.F).  
158      The Strain-Tension form is now called with useStrainTensonVisc=.true.
159      ViscAhStrain and viscAhTension are now retired.
160    o diagnostics "VISCAHD" & "VISCA4D" replace "VISCAH" & "VISCA4".
161    o In response to JMC's bug report, genmake2 now ignores any soft-links
162      that it finds in the *current* directory when searching for files.
163      Soft-links found in any other source directories will still work as
164      they did before.
165    o add HAVE_SETRLSTK define and useSETRLSTK flag (eedata) which calls
166      a C routine to unlimit the stack size
167    o mnc-ify pkg/aim snapshot vars
168    o mnc-ify pkg/land as requested by Daniel
169    o various changes to mnc including:
170      - all files use the new "BASENAME[[.ITER].{t|f}NUM].nc" format
171      - output can now be grouped so that all files within a group
172          change the ITER portion of their names in lock-step together
173      - can now read ("global") PER-FACE (in addition to PER-TILE) files
174          and works with both EXCH1 and EXCH2 (but needs more testing)
175      - writing works for all verification test cases w/ g77 on Linux
176    
177    checkpoint57r_post
178    o make MNC variable initialization happen earlier
179    o add diagnostics for (almost) each term of the momentum Eq.
180    o remove SST,SSS,UVEL_k2,VVEL_k2 diagnostics.
181    o move pkg timeave out of pkg-groups "oceanic" & "atmospheric" (pkg/pkg_groups)
182    o remove MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT option ;
183      add "dumpInitAndLast" to replace "nodumps" (and MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT).
184    o move some basic S/R (used elsewhere in the code) from pkg/mdsio to eesupp/src
185      allows to compile without pkg/mdsio (& test successfully hs94.1x64x5)
186    o add MNC output for adjoint of EXF (adexf), SEAICE (adseaice)
187    o add time-dependent SST, SSS control
188    o cost terms in ecco/ modularized (new cost_generic.F)
189    o cost_averages routines are modularized (new cost_averagesgeneric.F)
190    o new infrastructure for seaice model vs. obs misfits in seaice/
191      * driver from the_main_loop.F is seaice_cost_driver.F
192      * first term is AREA vs. SMR observation misfit (ALLOW_SEAICE_COST_SMR_AREA)
193      * gradient check in Exp. 6a of natl_box_adjoint/
194    o natl_box_adjoint input_seaice for Lab. Sea now available online via wget
195      (see README file)
196    
197    checkpoint57q_post
198    o fix initialisation Pb in calc_gw (get NANs in exp5 with g77)
199    o fix annoying months-old bug in mnc/mdsio output for seaice pkg
200      - bug was reported by Jean-Michel and Ian Fenty
201    o fix initialization Pb in AIM-Ocean coupled model (aim_sice2aim.F)
202      update exp. cpl_aim+ocn output.
203    o Implement 4-level checkpointing: AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
204      Needed for high-res. runs with large global files
205      to be able to limit tapelev size
206    o Changed some tests for adjoint:
207      * carbon/ now tests AUTODIFF_2_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
208      * natl_box_adjoint/code_bulk/ tests AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
209      * global_ocean.90x40x15/ back to default 3-level checkpointing
210    o Modifications to enable scripted COMMON to MODULE conversion
211      * verification/OpenAD/code/ has necessary scripts and description;
212      * converts, compiles and runs successfully;
213    
214    checkpoint57p_post
215    o reading of delXfile & delYfile moved from ini_parms.F to ini_grid.F
216    o move ${PKG}_MNC_INIT from ${PKG}_READ_PARAMS to ${PKG}_INIT_FIXED
217      (already the case for some pkgs, including recent MNC_init, e.g. thsice)
218    o call CALC_GW from DYNAMICS (instead of from FORWARD_STEP)
219    o Dissipation & phiHyd gradient are always added to gU,gV in timestep.F
220      (was already the case for dissipation with mom_vecinv,
221       and also the case for grad.PhiHyd when staggered-timeStep)
222      This will allow to put dissipation out-off the AB time-stepping.
223     Unfortunately, affects truncation error. Update output of exp. that "fails"
224      (cg2d matching number) and leave the others for later: front_relax(10),
225      global_ocean_pressure(10),ideal_2D_oce(10),internal_wave(9),lab_sea(12),
226      matrix_example(7!),natl_box(12),plume_on_slope(11),vermix(12x3,11x2).
227    
228    checkpoint57o_post
229    o fix MNC/MDSIO flags in PTRACERS so that (1) it works, and
230      (2) its ready to be documented during the 20050801 DocFest
231    o MNC-ify the gmredi package -- tested and works w/ and w/o mnc
232      for ideal_2D_oce and lab_sea on linux_ia32_g77
233    o set to #undef CTRL_SET_OLD_MAXCVARS_30
234      in global1x1_tot/code_seaice_adj to access indices 32, 33
235      (worth another tag)
236    
237    checkpoint57n_post
238    o adding precip control xx_precip 32
239    o adding swflux control xx_swflux 33
240    o Replacing 10 forcing penalty cost routines by 1 generic.
241    o Implementing partitioning in time-mean and variable adjustment
242      for atmos. state.
243    o Time-mean constant error is now read in data.ecco (instead of hard-coded)
244    o in natl_box_adjoint:
245      * updated exp 1 to 10
246        (but does not have time-mean vs. variable split results yet)
247    o updated global1x1/*_seaice_adj/
248      to incorporate latest changes
249    o enable useSingleCpuIO for mdsio vector routines
250      (applies in particular to tapelev I/O)
251    o removed inefficient K-loop in all active_file*control*.F
252    
253    checkpoint57m_post
254    o re-arrange exp. adjustment.cs-32x32x1 (adjust_nlfs.cs-32x32x1 merge into)
255      and advect_cs (use EXCH-2 and standard cs-32 grid files).
256    o pkg/exch2: filling of face-corner halo regions is optional
257      (ifdef W2_FILL_NULL_REGIONS) and is turned off by default.
258    
259    checkpoint57l_post
260     tag before updating tutorials (pre-release-2)
261    o add cos & sin of grid-direction orientation angle (curvilinear grid only,
262       for output and interpolation of input fields onto model grid)
263    o fix radius in mom_v_metric_cylinder.F (wrong by dy/2).
264       Affects results of exp. rotating_tank ; update output.txt.
265    o pkg/diagnostics: 2 new S/R to fill a diagnostics using a scaling factor
266          and taking the square quantity and/or using a fraction-weight field.
267    o fix aim_diagnostics_init.F mate numbers.
268    o add mnc output capability to diagnostics/diagstat and update
269      our cvsignore files for the ACSII output generated
270    
271    checkpoint57k_post
272    o lab_sea now uses diagnostics package and provides a suite of
273      new EXF diagnostics output.
274    
275    checkpoint57j_post
276    o exf
277      * bug fix in exf_bulkformulae for psimh (spotted by Eliyahu Biton):
278        Bracket missing in eqn. for psimh (eqn. 7 of Large & Pond, 1982);
279        terms -2*ATAN(x) + pi/2 were added to both stable and unstable case.
280      * extended diagnostics output
281        - now includes all EXF variables
282        - hs, hl moved to common block
283        - separate S/R for diagnostics, called after ctrl vector is added
284        - name changed for EXFsw -> EXFswnet, EXFlw -> EXFlwnet
285        - EXFqnet contains true Qnet (i.e. includes qsw)
286      * updated verif. lab_sea, global_with_exf
287      * Rearranging hflux (exf_mapfields -> exf_getforcing)
288        to ensure that diagnostics sees a true EXFqnet
289    o add matlab scripts for CS-grid vectors (in utils/cs_grid)
290    o diagnostics pkg: change pointers so that 1 diagnostic can be used
291      several times with different frequencies.
292    o mnc-ify the thsice package as requested by Daniel Enderton
293      - the monitor--MNC output needs work
294      - many attributes need to be added (most are currently blank)
295    o mnc-ify theaim_v23 package as requested by Daniel Enderton
296      - many attributes need to be added (most are currently blank)
297    o remove "groundAtK1" & "rkFac" (replaced by usingPCoords & -rkSign)
298    o add Sadourny like discretization to the 4th.O vorticity advection scheme
299    o fix bug in rStar code (calc_r_star.F) when used with topo/bathy.
300      update output.txt from: aim.5l_cs (& .thSI), cpl_aim+ocn,
301         fizhi-gridalt-hs and global_ocean.cs32x15 (& .thsice).
302    o fix few little things to avoid floating error with -ftrapuv (ifort v9)
303     (ini_spherical_polar_grid.F, calc_r_star.F, monitor/mon_surfcor.F)
304    
305    checkpoint57i_post
306    o Diagnostics package was changed: diagnostic allocation is now deactivated
307      by setting an empty file name in the namelist (used to be by setting 0 frequency)
308    o momentum advection (VI form) options: activate 4th.O vorticity Coriolis ;
309      add 1rst Order upwind vertical Shear.
310    o add a quick fix for A/B checkpointing in OFFLINE mode
311    o add IGNORE_TIME define and -ignore_time option to genmake2 as an
312      end-run around the C/Fortran linking horror in eesup/src/timers.F
313    o added pkg/runclock: allows user to terminate run based on wall clock
314    o added non-hydrostatic scaling parameter: nh_am2
315    o pkg/my82: futile attempt to make results compiler-independent by adding
316      some "_d 0", etc. no effect.
317    o for mnc output, fill the 'T' coordinate var with myTime and create a
318      separate 'iter' variable for iteration count
319    o pkg/diagnostics:
320      add new capability: output of Global/Regional & per-level statistics ;
321      tested against monitor output (including land & thSIce) on various exp.
322    o make seaice-pkg I/O type flags (MNC/MDS) more standard.
323    
324    checkpoint57h_done
325      tag after changing user customized files (DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h,
326      data.diagnostics, data.gchem, data.ptracers) is done.
327    
328    o pkg/diagnostics: prepare for Global/Regional statistics.
329      add 2nd namelist in data.diagnostics and update DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h
330    o remove "baseTime" (no used) from arg. list of DIFF_BASE_MULTIPLE
331      and rename it: DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE
332    
333    checkpoint57h_post
334    o move tIter0 from data.gchem to PTRACERS_Iter0 in data.ptracers
335    o pkg/diagnostics: change output frequency, now in seconds (instead
336      of Nb of iterations). This requires to change data.diagnostics.
337    checkpoint57h_pre
338    
339    o in mnc, let the user create the output dir if both mnc_outdir_date
340      and mnc_outdir_num are false
341    o add fflags() to pkg/diagnostics which allows one to specify, on a
342      per-file basis, the file precision [default behavior is unchanged]
343    o added diagnostics to pkg/kpp, including computation of mixed layer
344      depth based on a temperature/density criterion
345    o updated verification/natl_box to test the new pkg/kpp diagnostics
346    o bugs fixed (with useAbsVorticity=T & with useJamartMomAdv=T)
347    o test AB-3 code with 4th.Order advection scheme (advect_xy/input.ab3_c4)
348    o fix mnc flags in pkg/seaice so that they are "owned" by seaice,
349      not mnc -- this mistake was found by JMC and is now corrected
350    
351    checkpoint57g_post
352    o add Adams-Bashforth 3rd Order time stepping:
353      - default remains AB-2 (#undef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3)
354      - not yet implemented with NH, CD_Scheme, pTracers, MNC_pickup ...
355    checkpoint57g_pre
356    
357    o make lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax spatially varying
358      (default remains spatially uniform constant based on tau)
359    o added new control variables
360      * init. uVel, vVel, etanN
361      * lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax
362    o separate masks used for ctrl_pack/unpack 'from write_grid' output
363      (suggested by G. Forget)
364    
365    checkpoint57f_post
366    o add parameter "baseTime" = model base time = time at iteration zero
367      new function DIFF_BASE_MULTIPLE (replace DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE) to
368      account for baseTime shift
369    o move Coriolis arrays from PARAMS.h to GRID.h
370    checkpoint57f_pre
371    
372    o mnc-ifying the seaice package
373    o introduced an alternative length scale calculation for use in the limiting
374      maximum viscosity (off by default, see mom_vi_hdissip.F for details)
375    o S/R ptracers_calc_diff: argument list bug for CALL KPP_CALC_DIFF_S
376    o added modified Leith scheme with viscosity proportional to grad(Hdiv)
377      as well as grad(vort3).  Made it compatible with both approximate form
378      for the cubed sphere and full form of these gradients.  Added flag
379      useFullLeith to select between approximate and full form.  
380    o add "d0" in getcon.F to reduce differences between compilers/platforms
381      update output.txt of exp. fizhi-gridalt-hs
382    o change port_rand funtion to allow to set the seed.
383    o fix obscure MNC bug involving conversion between reals and integers
384      - it caused no problems with certain (eg. gcc, ifc) compilers but the
385        new version is now more standards-compliant
386    o adjoint-related modifications
387      * gad_dst3_adv_?: to be able to use advscheme=30 in adjoint
388      * gad_calc_rhs: fool adjoint, revert to advscheme=30 in reverse when using 33
389      * mom_vi_hdissip: to be able to use Leith scheme in adjoint
390    
391    checkpoint57e_post
392    o Adding eddy stress controls a la Ferreira et al.
393    checkpoint57e_pre (actually was tagged: eckpoint57e_pre)
394    
395    o fizhi pkg: fix AtoC and CtoA when called with same input & output array
396      update output.txt of exp. fizhi-gridalt-hs
397    o add more "Z" dimensions and associated coordinate vars to MNC
398    o pkg/exf: added twoDigitYear capability for option useExfYearlyFields
399    o parameter calendarDumps: when set, approximate months (30-31 days) and years
400      (360-372 days) for parameters chkPtFreq, pChkPtFreq, taveFreq, SEAICE_taveFreq,
401      KPP_taveFreq, and freq in pkg/diagnostics are converted to exact calendar
402      months and years.  Requires pkg/cal.
403  o diagnostics: add pickup functionality  o diagnostics: add pickup functionality
404    - off by default for backwards compatibility    - off by default for backwards compatibility
405    - current version only uses MDSIO -- MNC will be added    - current version only uses MDSIO -- MNC will be added
