4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7  o adding precip control xx_precip  checkpoint58b_post
8  o moved ptracer ctrl index 17 -> 32  o AIM+thSIce: fix sign of Short-Wave through the Ice ;
9      update output.txt of exp. aim.5l_cs.thSI
10    o various mnc cleanups and improvements:
11      + shrink lookup tables by factor of ~4
12      + better error reporting when running out of lookup space
13      + able to handle longer path/file names (up to 500 chars)
14    o adjoint:
15      - Another overhaul of store dirs. for NLFS to eliminate  "hidden" recomputations.
16      - TBD: "hidden" mom_vecinv recomp. in dynamics
17    o change forcing_In_AB to affects both T,S forcing and Momentum forcing
18     (allow to differentiate between forcing components using new integer flags:
19      momForcingOutAB=1/0 & tracForcingOutAB=1/0)
20     and add new flag to put Dissipation tendency out of Adams-Bashforth.
21    o ecco
22      - enable trend removal from SSH anomaly obs.
23    o adjoint
24      - a fix for PmEpR when #undef EXACT_CONSERV
25      - fix of "hidden" recomp. in thermodynamics (no TAF warnings)
26      - try to fix "hidden" recomp. in forward_step for NLFS
27        (NLFS seems broken sometimes after I checked it in)
28    o seaice:
29     - add c-grid version of the dynamic solver:
30       + three new routines that are the c-grid substitute lsr, dynsolver
31         and ostres
32       + put a few fields that were local to dynsolver into global common
33         blocks, so that I can move the computation of stresses etc into
34         seaice_lsr (saves coding but may break the adjoint).
35     - replace more hardwired parameters by runtime parameters
36     - add ice masks that mask the rhs of the implicit solvers where there
37       is no ice (commented out in seaice_dynsolver, because i am not sure
38       if this works properly), eventually this should replace the clipping
39       of ice velocities in seaice_dynsolver to +/-40cm/s.
40    o remove the BUILD_INFO.h include from CPP_EEOPTIONS.h and explicitly
41      include it only where its needed
42    o move balancing of fluxes before the call of external_forcing_surf
43    o seaice:
44      - correct units of turning angles (now they are really in degrees)
45      - move computation of GWATX/Y out of main routine into dynsolver
46      - initialize GWATX/Y in seaice_init
47    o Apply mask on Fresh-Water flux (needed for SSH forcing).
48      update output.txt of exp. global_ocean_ebm & cpl_aim+ocn (affects cg2d residual)
49    o seaice: add runtime flags for turning angles (default to zero)
50    o Adding runtime parameter to exf/, ctrl/, to remove on-the-fly global mean
51      and trend from exf forcing and ctrl control adjustments
52    o fix variable aliasing in gad_calc_rhs that cannot be handled by TAF
53      (since checkpoint57x_post)
54    o change the default rotation period to 86164.s = the Earth rotation
55    o 1rst implementation of Implicit IGW using the 3-D solver (use3Dsolver=T)
56      and based on a reference stratification. Tested within hs94.cs-32x32x5.
57    o seaice advection: add code for choosing between the default (2nd order
58      central differences) and multiDim advection schemes provided by
59      pkg/generic_advdiff
60    o seaice:
61      - removed all references to SEAICE_GRID.h fields from
62        dynsolver, advect, diffus, lsr, without changing the results of lab_sea
63        (cubed-sphere configuration will change a little)
64      - grid computations in seaice_init are obsolete now.
65      - cleaned up code a little so that is easier to read (hopefully).
66      - added new (better?) discretizations of default advection and diffusion
67        (turn on with SEAICEuseFluxForm)
68      - replace 1 in 3d global fields by kSurface in growth.F
69      
70    checkpoint58a_post
71    o seaice:
72      - bug fix in advect.F
73    o shelfice:
74      - separate shelfice load anomaly from pload (breaks with time
75        dependent forcing), => introduce constant field shelficeLoadAnomaly.
76        Its default is 0., but it may be computed more cleverly from (unknown)
77        t- and s-profiles (tRef, sRef) and actual EOS. For now this has to be
78        done offline. A good approximation of the pressure load anomaly is
79        necessary to avoid large initial adjustment processes underneath
80        deep-reaching shelfice.
81      - small fix in ISOMIP shelfice_thermodynamics
82      - add more sophisticated thermodynamics of Hellmer (1989), this is
83        now the default
84      - give a few constants more intuitive names
85    o add code to balance EmPmP and Qnet at the end of do_ocean_physics. Useful
86      if bulk formulae are used in long integration (especially EmPmR). Turn
87      on with balanceEmPmR = .true. or balanceQnet = .true. in data, PARM01
88      if balancePrintMean, the imbalance that is substracted is printed to
89      STDOUT.
90    o fix bug (typo) in obcs_apply_eta.F
91    o add a new package shelfice which enables us to model the circulation
92      underneath shelf-ice with draughts of hundreds of meters.
93     - works
94     - to do: + include improved thermodynamics
95              + check whether kSurfC (from model/inc/SURFACE.h) can be used
96                instead of new field kTopC
97              + can we use topoFile, Ro_surf and existing code in ini_depth.F
98                instead of new field R_shelfIce and new code in ini_depth.F
99                and ini_mask_etc.F?
100              + adjust vertical mixing schemes?
101    o seaice pkg:
102     - add a cpp-flag to include a simple formula for a salinity dependent
103       freezing point of sea water at the surface
104     - change the contents of SEAICE_TEST_ICE_STRESS_1 so that zonal and
105       meridional stresses are now different (and hopefully correct)
106    o AIM pkg: change threshold on large-scale condensation to conserve Heat.
107       update results of aim.5l_LatLon test ; fix title & units of AIM diagnostics
108       and  change 3 diagnostics names (OSR,OSRCLR,KM -> TSR,TSRCLR,DRAG)
109    o pkg/diagnostics: add options and parameters for regional-statistics
110       diagnostics ; define regions by reading a region-mask from a file
111       (might add other options later)
112    o pkg/bulk_force:
113     - add option and parameters to use AIM surface-flux formulae.
114     - Change loading part: S/R BULKF_FIELDS_LOAD only take care of bulkf_fields ;
115       others forcing fields (defined in PARM05, parameter file "data") are loaded
116       from S/R EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD, as usually (with useBulkforce = T or F).
117     - initialise all bulkf_fields in bulkf_init.F ; do in-lining of exf_bulkcdn.F
118     - use the right EXCH call for uwind,vwind (to work on CS-grid).
119     - re-arrange header files (move parameters from BULKF.h to BULKF_PARAMS.h)
120       and parameters (note: calcWindStress replaces .NOT.readwindstress).
121     - cleaner interface with pkg/thSIce (new S/R THSICE_GET_PRECIP).
122    
123    checkpoint58
124    o add "--embed-source" option to genmake2 which, when the supporting
125      tools can be compiled (as determined by genmake2) will turn on the
126      embed_files package which then embeds the entire MITgcm source code
127      (*.[fFhc] + Makefile) used for the build within the executable
128      - requested by CNH but off by default
129      - adds a paltry <9MB to the mitgcmuv executable in most cases
130      - only writes the output when useEMBEDSRC in eedata is true
131    o clean up 3-dim. relaxation codes:
132      * Fix I/O inconsistency in pkg/rbcs: replace precFloat32 by readBinaryPrec
133      * Remove 3-dim. relaxation code from pkg/exf (now use only pkg/rbcs)
134      * Thanks to Tom Haine for testing!
135    
136    checkpoint57z_post
137    o make CG3D solver compatible with Free-surface at k > 1 (p-coordinate):
138      affects output (@ truncation level) of exp. plume_on_slope ; updated.
139    o fix the pickup behavior for obcs in combination with ptracers
140    o fix a bug in ptracers_external_fields_load
141    o no AB-2 at the first iteration for Gw (consistent with Gu,Gv,Gt,Gs ...)
142      affects results of NH experiments (but all our NH tests have Gw[it=1]==0 !!)
143    o transfered surface NH pressure to eta field (if exactConserv).
144    o gmredi: fix bugs in slope tapering ldd97 (depthZ had the wrong sign)
145         and update lab_sea output.txt file.
146    o completing 3-dim. relaxation code: additional term
147         1/tau*( theta(i,j,k) - thetaStar(i,j,k) )
148      in S/R EXTERNAL_FORCING_T (file external_forcing.F)
149      * At compile time, in "EXF_OPTIONS.h" set
150          #define  ALLOW_CLIMTEMP_RELAXATION
151          #define  ALLOW_CLIMSALT_RELAXATION
152      * At runtime in "data", under &PARM03 set (e.g., units in seconds)
153          tauThetaClimRelax3Dim = 15552000.0,
154          tauSaltClimRelax3Dim  = 15552000.0,
155      * 3 cases:
156          1) Use a constant-in-time 3-dim. field
157          2) Provide 12 3-dim. fields corresponding to Jan., ... , Dec.
158          3) Real-time relax. to time-evolving prescribed field
159    o Adding Laplacian-type smoothness constraint on
160      initial and boundary (forcing) controls (ic, bc)
161      * enable at compile-time via
162        ALLOW_SMOOTH_IC_COST_CONTRIBUTION, ALLOW_SMOOTH_BC_COST_CONTRIBUTION
163      * enable at run-time via mult_smooth_ic = 1, mult_smooth_bc = 1
164      * Absolute scale somewhat unclear so far
165      * no area weighting was included since no other cost term does so far
166    
167    checkpoint57y_post
168    First step for a NLFS adjoint
169    o initially suppress rStar (new flag DISABLE_RSTAR_CODE)
170    o new init. routines for calc_r_star, calc_surf_dr
171    o still need to deal with ini_masks_etc
172    o testreport seemed happy
173    checkpoint57y_pre
174    
175    o obcs: always reset wVel & eta (to zero or prescribe it) at the OBs.
176    o add new package rbcs (for relaxing ptracers at boundaries/depth/surface etc)
177    o add new offset feature to offline pkg (plus minor cleanup)
178    o cfc fixes for final year of integration
179    o clean up GCHEM_OPTIONS.h/DIC_OPTIONS.h (all options should
180      be in GCHEM_OPTIONS).
181    
182    checkpoint57x_post
183    o fix testreport Pb in multiple test experiment.
184    o cleanup our namelist syntax in verification:
185      - make it more F95 standards compliant (some work still needed)
186      - allows the vast majority of our tests to work with gfortran
187    o Non-Hydrostatic:
188     - put all NH variables (formerly in DYNVARS.h & GW.h) in NH_VARS.h
189     - fix exchange calls for CS-grid using the new EXCH_S3D_RL.
190    o Allow to apply AB on T,S rather than on AB(gT,gS):
191     - implemented within #ifdef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3
192     - use the same arrays (gtNm,gsNm) to hold tracer field at previous
193       time-steps (if AB(T,S)) and tendencies (if AB(gT,gS)).
194     - need a "clever" read_pickup to restart from the other AB formulation
195    o move local commom bloc /GlobalLo/ (used for singleCpuIO) in EESUPPORT.h
196    o remove some unused variables (reduces number of compiler warnings)
197    o adjoint
198      * Disable useVariableViscosity for adjoint for time being
199        (there are a number of extensive recomputations)
200      * Initialize certain variables needed for adjoint
201    
202    checkpoint57w_post
203    o pkg/mdsio: use MAX_LEN_FNAM (instead of hard coded 80) for file-names
204                 fix the singleCpuIO RS version of MDSWRITEFIELD
205       and add a WARNING if using globalFiles=T with multi-processors.
206    o write grid-file(s) in only one format (MDS or MNC): default=MNC (if
207      using MNC); can force MDS output by setting writegrid_mnc=F in data.mnc
208    o tracer advection scheme:
209      add DST-2 (=Lax-Wendroff) & 1rst order upwind schemes (the way to get
210       those 2 schemes before, changing GAD_FLUX_LIMITER.h + to recompile,
211       was not very convenient).
212      add implicit version for DST-3 & DST3_Flux_Limit vertical advection;  
213       (further tests needed for the implicit DST & Flux-Limiter schemes).
214    o PTRACERS: added namelist parameter PTRACERS_ref in analogy to tRef
215      and sRef for convenience, handy, when you want to initialize
216      ptracers in a large domain with a constant non-zero value. Also,
217      untangle ptracers_init.F a little.
218    
219    checkpoint57v_post
220    o change dome exp. to use variable viscosity in side-drag terms.
221    o remove all the files from the cfc_offline test since they are now
222      incorporated into tutorial_cfc_offline which has been producing
223      identical results for a few days of testing
224    o add new parameter: sideDragFactor to enable half-slip-side BC
225      and change side-drag S/R to use viscosity from mom_calc_visc
226      (can switch back by setting sideDragFactor=0.); affects results at
227      truncation level; regenerate output for exp.: global_ocean.cs32x10(x3),
228       global_ocean_ebm, global_ocean_pressure, matrix_example & MLAdjust(x5).
229    o vorticity & strain are now computed without masking, to account for
230      no-slip-side BC in variable viscosity calculation ; mask is applied
231      anyway later on, before computing advection/coriolis terms.
232    o modify exp4 to test new obcs support for reading from external files
233      and for passive tracers
234    o fix behavior of ptracers_monitor when monitor output is written to a
235      netcdf-file; still not independent of monitor.F (writes in the same
236      file).
237    o change default value of tRef (put a uniform, meaningful value for ocean
238      & atmos) and initialize sRef (was missing, as Martin mentioned).
239    o Redefine viscC?Leith*.  Change the coefficients of Leith viscosity
240      to be proportional to enstrophy dissipation length.  Thus,
241       viscC?leith?_new=pi*(viscC?leith?_old)^(1/3)
242      This is now consistent with Smagorinsky and with the manual.
243    
244    checkpoint57u_post
245    o OBCS and PTRACERS: add open boundary support for passive tracers
246      - either use homogenous (pseudo) v.Neumann conditions or prescribe
247        OB-values from file; this is not different from the way theta and salinity
248        are treated
249      - however, Orlanski-radiation conditions are not supported, and the model
250        will stop if you use pTracers and Orlanski at the same time.
251      - beefed up the rountine obcs_external_fields_load: now only those open
252        boundary values are overwritten with values from files for which there
253        are really files, otherwise the OB-fields remain untouched. This makes
254        it possible to use different OBs at different ends of the domain (as
255        with EXF)
256    o reduce number of exch calls in shap_filt (s2).
257    o CS-grid: fix divergence contribution to Leith viscosity. Affects (@
258      truncation level) 4/5 MLAdjust test results (11&12 digits match).
259    
260    checkpoint57t_post
261    o test biharmonic viscosity + no-slip with exp: global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
262    o finish adding brackets (coriolis S/R, vecinv) in multi-terms sum to get
263      same truncation, independent of the face number: affects affects several
264      test. exp.: Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
265    o fix bug in mom_v_sidedrag (biharmonic viscosity was counted 2 times);
266      note that biharmonic viscosity + no-slip was not tested in any experiment.
267    o fix bug in non-linear free-surf side-drag ; generate new output for
268      global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & global_ocean_pressure.
269    o make mnc honor the writeBinaryPrec flag for most kinds of output
270    o eesupp: split EEPARAMS into EESIZE/EEPARAMS and add a vector global sum
271    o minor change in averaging W (mom_vi_?_vertshear.F) that affects truncation
272      error; update output from global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
273    o add brackets in multi-terms sum to get same truncation, independent of
274      the face number (manage to get exactly same value of gU,gV at the cs-edge)
275      affects several test. exp. Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice).
276    o Clean, new version of mom_calc_visc.  Adds a new feature, viscAhRemax
277      and viscA4Remax, which allow one to limit the minimum viscosity by specifying
278      a maximum grid-scale Reynolds number.  Also, changes all length calculations
279      in the case of grid anisotropy to geometric mean of dx**2 and dy**2.
280      Suggested values of viscosity parameters found in mom_calc_visc.
281      Many new viscosity diagnostics available.
282    
283    checkpoint57s_post
284    o Add clearing-house for viscosity calculations, mom_calc_visc and
285      correct numerous bugs in LeithD and Smagorinsky discretizations.  
286      mom_calc_visc now allows for Smagorinsky, Leith and LeithD to be
287      used simultaneously, and to be used in mom_vecinv and mom_fluxform.
288      Mom_vecinv can be used with standard viscous calculation (mom_vi_hdissip.F)
289      and with Strain-Tension viscous term calculation (mom_hdissip.F).  
290      The Strain-Tension form is now called with useStrainTensonVisc=.true.
291      ViscAhStrain and viscAhTension are now retired.
292    o diagnostics "VISCAHD" & "VISCA4D" replace "VISCAH" & "VISCA4".
293    o In response to JMC's bug report, genmake2 now ignores any soft-links
294      that it finds in the *current* directory when searching for files.
295      Soft-links found in any other source directories will still work as
296      they did before.
297    o add HAVE_SETRLSTK define and useSETRLSTK flag (eedata) which calls
298      a C routine to unlimit the stack size
299    o mnc-ify pkg/aim snapshot vars
300    o mnc-ify pkg/land as requested by Daniel
301    o various changes to mnc including:
302      - all files use the new "BASENAME[[.ITER].{t|f}NUM].nc" format
303      - output can now be grouped so that all files within a group
304          change the ITER portion of their names in lock-step together
305      - can now read ("global") PER-FACE (in addition to PER-TILE) files
306          and works with both EXCH1 and EXCH2 (but needs more testing)
307      - writing works for all verification test cases w/ g77 on Linux
308    
309    checkpoint57r_post
310    o make MNC variable initialization happen earlier
311    o add diagnostics for (almost) each term of the momentum Eq.
312    o remove SST,SSS,UVEL_k2,VVEL_k2 diagnostics.
313    o move pkg timeave out of pkg-groups "oceanic" & "atmospheric" (pkg/pkg_groups)
314    o remove MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT option ;
315      add "dumpInitAndLast" to replace "nodumps" (and MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT).
316    o move some basic S/R (used elsewhere in the code) from pkg/mdsio to eesupp/src
317      allows to compile without pkg/mdsio (& test successfully hs94.1x64x5)
318    o add MNC output for adjoint of EXF (adexf), SEAICE (adseaice)
319    o add time-dependent SST, SSS control
320    o cost terms in ecco/ modularized (new cost_generic.F)
321    o cost_averages routines are modularized (new cost_averagesgeneric.F)
322    o new infrastructure for seaice model vs. obs misfits in seaice/
323      * driver from the_main_loop.F is seaice_cost_driver.F
324      * first term is AREA vs. SMR observation misfit (ALLOW_SEAICE_COST_SMR_AREA)
325      * gradient check in Exp. 6a of natl_box_adjoint/
326    o natl_box_adjoint input_seaice for Lab. Sea now available online via wget
327      (see README file)
328    
329    checkpoint57q_post
330    o fix initialisation Pb in calc_gw (get NANs in exp5 with g77)
331    o fix annoying months-old bug in mnc/mdsio output for seaice pkg
332      - bug was reported by Jean-Michel and Ian Fenty
333    o fix initialization Pb in AIM-Ocean coupled model (aim_sice2aim.F)
334      update exp. cpl_aim+ocn output.
335    o Implement 4-level checkpointing: AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
336      Needed for high-res. runs with large global files
337      to be able to limit tapelev size
338    o Changed some tests for adjoint:
339      * carbon/ now tests AUTODIFF_2_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
340      * natl_box_adjoint/code_bulk/ tests AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
341      * global_ocean.90x40x15/ back to default 3-level checkpointing
342    o Modifications to enable scripted COMMON to MODULE conversion
343      * verification/OpenAD/code/ has necessary scripts and description;
344      * converts, compiles and runs successfully;
345    
346    checkpoint57p_post
347    o reading of delXfile & delYfile moved from ini_parms.F to ini_grid.F
348    o move ${PKG}_MNC_INIT from ${PKG}_READ_PARAMS to ${PKG}_INIT_FIXED
349      (already the case for some pkgs, including recent MNC_init, e.g. thsice)
350    o call CALC_GW from DYNAMICS (instead of from FORWARD_STEP)
351    o Dissipation & phiHyd gradient are always added to gU,gV in timestep.F
352      (was already the case for dissipation with mom_vecinv,
353       and also the case for grad.PhiHyd when staggered-timeStep)
354      This will allow to put dissipation out-off the AB time-stepping.
355     Unfortunately, affects truncation error. Update output of exp. that "fails"
356      (cg2d matching number) and leave the others for later: front_relax(10),
357      global_ocean_pressure(10),ideal_2D_oce(10),internal_wave(9),lab_sea(12),
358      matrix_example(7!),natl_box(12),plume_on_slope(11),vermix(12x3,11x2).
