4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7  o adding precip control xx_precip  o pkg/diagnostics: (diagnostics_main_init.F)
8  o moved ptracer ctrl index 17 -> 32    define title of isomorphic variables according to the current config.
9    o pkg/thsice with pkg/seaice dynamics:
10    - fix domain of computation (interior only, required for exf) and do exchanges
11    - seaice-dynamics forcing: add atmospheric and seaice loading to SSH gradient
12    o towards a standard way of dealing with multi-threading in MONITOR
13      and ${PKG}_MONITOR (all except ptracers_monitor) subroutines.
14    o Pass variable viscosities (vertical and horizontal, e.g., KPP or Leith)
15       to W momentum equation in nonhydrostatic and quasihydrostatic runs.  
16    o make exf_monitor & seaice_monitor independant of the main (dynamics) monitor.
17    o pkg/seaice: fix SEAICEuseEVPpickup parameter (put it in a commom block)
18    o generic_advdiff: DST advection S/R : use local copy of velocity to compute CFL
19       (problems ? with gradient check in bottom_ctrl_5x5 adjoint test)
20    o tracer advection:
21     - clean-up and simplify calc_common_factors.F
22     - make a local copy of velocity and pass it (as u,v,r_Trans) to DST tracer
23       advection subroutine (but still not used within DST advection S/R)
24    o rename pkg aim_ocn_coupler to atm_ocn_coupler (later on, will be used without aim)
25    
26    checkpoint58j_post
27    o new driver S/R: LOAD_FIELDS_DRIVER to load external forcing fields
28      from file (collects calls previously in FORWARD_STEP)
29    o move call to SEAICE_MODEL from FORWARD_STEP to DO_OCEANIC_PHYS
30    o adjoint store dir. adjusted accordingly
31    o genmake2
32      replace target "ad_taf" by $(EXE_AD) ; add $(EXE_AD) to the make CLEAN list.
33    
34    checkpoint58i_post
35    o pkg/seaice: add parameter that allows to scale/turn off effect of seaice
36      on wind stress (SEAICEstressFactor defaults to 1.)
37    o Total number of Timers is finite (<=40): comment out 2 non-essential one
38      in the_main_loop.F to avoid Pb (e.g., when running fizhi test)
39    o vector_invariant: fix highOrderVorticity(=4.th.Order) advection
40      on CS-grid: no longer loosing mass.
41    o exf & curvilinear-grid: no longer modify longitude xC & xG.
42    o pkg/ggl90: fix sloppy output and fix a bug
43    o pkg/seaice: added SEAICEuseEVPpickup parameter
44      - Set to false in order to start EVP solver with
45        non-EVP pickup files when using SEAICEuseEVP
46      - fix sign error in diffusion in seaice_calc_rhs
47    
48    checkpoint58h_post
49    * Modifications for bottom topography control
50      o replace hFacC by _hFacC at various places
51      o replace ALLOW_HFACC_CONTROL by ALLOW_DEPTH_CONTROL
52      o add non-self-adjoint cg2d_nsa
53      o update autodiff support routines
54      o re-initialise hfac after ctrl_depth_ini
55      o works for 5x5 box, doesnt work for global_ocean.90x40x15
56    * Adding verification for 5x5 box (4-layer) bottom topography control
57    
58    checkpoint58g_post
59    o pkg/diagnostics: implement "periodic averaging diagnostics" (e.g.,
60       used for mean seasonal cycle, mean diurnal cycle); add an example
61       in verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.thsice/data.diagnostics
62    o pkg/ggl90:
63      - add parameter (minimum surface kinetic energy)
64      - fix bug (avoiding division by zero)
65    o couple pkg/thsice to pkg/seaice:
66      - modify advection in seaice to accomodate new scalar fields to be advected
67      - only muliDimAdection scheme work with seaice/thsice
68      - mapping of thsice-variables to seaice-variables, back and forth
69      - does not break the verification experiments, but does not give the
70        desired results either
71    o pkg/seaice
72      - make (default) second order advection a bit less confusing?
73    
74    checkpoint58f_post
75    o couple pkg/thsice and pkg/exf (as a preparation for coupling pkg/thsice
76      to pkg/seaice):
77      - new routines thsice_map_exf and thsice_get_exf provide the interface
78      - add an additional formal parameter to thsice_solve4temp
79    o pkg/exf:
80      - add new fields wspeed, snowprecip (to be able to couple to thsice)
81      - correct Stefan-Boltzmann constant
82      - new parameter for longwave surface emittance
83      - separate some stuff from exf_bulkformulae into new routines  
84        exf_radiation, exf_wind
85      - add new parameters and constants: longwave emissivity for ocean, ice
86        and snow, evaporation parameters over ice
87      - decouple wind/stress computation from ALLOW_BULKFORMULA: always compute
88        either wind from stress or stress from wind
89    o pkg/thSIce:
90    - split thsice_step_fwd.F in 2 S/R: thsice_step_temp.F & thsice_step_fwd.F
91    - put i,j loops inside S/R: THSICE_ALBEDO, THSICE_SOLVE4TEMP, THSICE_EXTEND
92       and THSICE_CALC_THICKN
93    - for now, call to THSICE_GET_BULKF remains inside i,j loops.
94    - add CPP option: ALLOW_DBUG_THSICE and header file THSICE_DEBUG.h
95      to make debugging easier.
96    - affects results (@ truncation level) of global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice: update output
97    o pkg/bulk_force:
98      - clean-up comments and parameters ;
99      - add new Bulk-Formulae from Large and Yeager, 2004, NCAR/TN-460+STR ;
100    o fix bug in aim+thsice albedo: snow & ice thickness arguments were switched;
101      generate new output for test-experiment: aim.5l_cs.thSI
102    o results_ad : rename "output.txt_adm" to "output_adm.txt" and change
103      testreport accordingly
104    
105    checkpoint58e_post
106    o SEAICE_CGRID adjoint done
107    o R_STAR adjoint implemented.
108      * Seems to just work (based on global_ocean.90x40x15/code_ad_nlfs/ )
109      * need to sort out init. of h0facc, etc.
110    o Make pkg/profile fully independent of ecco,cost, etc. stuff
111      to be able to use it in pure forward.
112    
113    checkpoint58d_post
114    o upgrade simple test-experiment to tutorial example:
115     step.1: duplicate the experiment and (step.2) will remove the old copy.
116      tutorial_barotropic_gyre      <- copy of exp0     (R1:barotropic_gyre_in_a_box)
117      tutorial_baroclinic_gyre      <- copy of exp1     (R1:baroclinic_gyre_on_a_sphere)
118      tutorial_global_oce_latlon    <- empty for now    (R1:global_ocean_circulation)
119      tutorial_global_oce_biogeo    <- copy of dic_example
120      tutorial_deep_convection      <- almost like exp5 (R1:nonhydrostatic_deep_convection)
121      tutorial_plume_on_slope       <- copy of plume_on_slope
122      tutorial_tracer_adjsens       <- copy of carbon   (R1:tracer_adjoint_sensitivity)
123      tutorial_global_oce_optim     <- empty for now (David ?)
124      tutorial_global_oce_in_p      <- copy of global_ocean_pressure
125     some tutorials (R1) were already checked-in under tutorial_examples in release1_branch
126    o correct a sign problem in cost_scat.F
127    o obcs and ptracers: fix boundary conditions for advections schemes
128      with larger stencil
129    o thsice adjoint: start
130    o mom_vecinv: add ISOTROPIC_COS_SCALING flags to mom_vi_hdissip for
131      completeness
132    o mom_fluxform: fixing the mutual use of ISOTROPIC_COS_SCALING
133      and COSINEMETH_III, add comments in default CPP_OPTIONS.h
134    o ptracers adjoint:
135      * avoid extensive recomputatations
136      * fix missing re-init. of gptr (missed by TAF)
137    o obcs: add a flag (OBCSprintDiags, defaults is true) that allows
138      me to turn off the excessive output to STDOUT that this package produces
139    o move NH metric terms & 3.D Coriolis S/R to pkg/mom_common
140      and add those terms in Vector-Invariant formulation.
141    o in ctrl pkg, if ALLOW_CAL, use monthly mean controls
142      if the control period (xx_hfluxperiod etc) is 0
143    o in profiles pkg, clean routines and fix details
144    o in ecco pkg, reading ssh data:
145      fix problem in case the model does not start at iter0=0
146    o fix mnc-pickup/restart for ptracers
147    o new package prifiles:
148      code to compute profile-based cost by Gael Forget
149      (modifs in ecco, ctrl, autodiff)
150    o Benign bug fix in initialization (spotted by M. Mazloff) of
151      ctrl_set_globfld_xz.F ctrl_set_globfld_yz.F
152    
153    checkpoint58c_post
154    o adjoint: finish NLFS adjoint and provide reference output in
155      verification/global_ocean.90x40x15/results_ad_nlfs
156    o seaice: add an EVP solver following Hunke and Dukowicz (1997) and the
157      documentation of CICE. Turn on by defining SEAICE_ALLOW_EVP in
158      SEAICE_OPTIONS.h and SEAICEuseEVP=.true. in data.seaice. Works only
159      with SEAICE_CGRID defined.
160    o move calendarDumps from "data" to "data.cal" and clean-up the code
161      with a simple call to pkg/cal S/R: CAL_TIME2WRITE
162    o add useEXF & useCAL flags (for now, set in hard-coded way)
163    o add S/R to compute NH-metrics terms & Coriolis f' in vertical momentum
164      (were missing in NH mode, and wrong in quasihydrostatic mode).
165      waiting for Chris updated version of calc_gw to add those CALLs.
166    o fix bug in quasihydrostatic S/R ;
167      add a test for this option: global_ocean.90x40x15.qshyd
168    o new S/R "SET_PARMS": set parameters that might depend on the use of some pkgs.
169      (called from INITIALISE_FIXED, after INI_PARMS & PACKAGES_READPARAMS)
170    o add on/off flag useOffLine for package OFFLINE
171    o seaice:
172      - modify advection so that it works also on the C-grid
173      - extend loop ranges in seaice_lsr and seaice_dynsolver; fixes
174        problem in multi-tile runs with C-grid
175      - add flags for clipping ice velocities and/or masking solver forcing
176      - fix drag (ocean on ice) formulation and a bug that caused noise in the
177        C-grid solver
178      - added a few comments to seaice_diffusion.F
179      - separate C-grid and B-grid versions more cleanly (UVM and seaiceMaskU/V
180        are now exclusive)
181      - add a new ocean-ice stress coupling method (Hibler and Bryan, 1987) which
182        required re-ordering the code a little:
183       + make DAIRN global variable (defined in SEAICE)
184       + move computation of the viscosities eta and zeta into a new separate
185         routine (because I need to recompute them in seaice_ocean_stress.F)
186    
187    checkpoint58b_post
188    o AIM+thSIce: fix sign of Short-Wave through the Ice ;
189      update output.txt of exp. aim.5l_cs.thSI
190    o various mnc cleanups and improvements:
191      + shrink lookup tables by factor of ~4
192      + better error reporting when running out of lookup space
193      + able to handle longer path/file names (up to 500 chars)
194    o adjoint:
195      - Another overhaul of store dirs. for NLFS to eliminate  "hidden" recomputations.
196      - TBD: "hidden" mom_vecinv recomp. in dynamics
197    o change forcing_In_AB to affects both T,S forcing and Momentum forcing
198     (allow to differentiate between forcing components using new integer flags:
199      momForcingOutAB=1/0 & tracForcingOutAB=1/0)
200     and add new flag to put Dissipation tendency out of Adams-Bashforth.
201    o ecco
202      - enable trend removal from SSH anomaly obs.
203    o adjoint
204      - a fix for PmEpR when #undef EXACT_CONSERV
205      - fix of "hidden" recomp. in thermodynamics (no TAF warnings)
206      - try to fix "hidden" recomp. in forward_step for NLFS
207        (NLFS seems broken sometimes after I checked it in)
208    o seaice:
209     - add c-grid version of the dynamic solver:
210       + three new routines that are the c-grid substitute lsr, dynsolver
211         and ostres
212       + put a few fields that were local to dynsolver into global common
213         blocks, so that I can move the computation of stresses etc into
214         seaice_lsr (saves coding but may break the adjoint).
215     - replace more hardwired parameters by runtime parameters
216     - add ice masks that mask the rhs of the implicit solvers where there
217       is no ice (commented out in seaice_dynsolver, because i am not sure
218       if this works properly), eventually this should replace the clipping
219       of ice velocities in seaice_dynsolver to +/-40cm/s.
220    o remove the BUILD_INFO.h include from CPP_EEOPTIONS.h and explicitly
221      include it only where its needed
222    o move balancing of fluxes before the call of external_forcing_surf
223    o seaice:
224      - correct units of turning angles (now they are really in degrees)
225      - move computation of GWATX/Y out of main routine into dynsolver
226      - initialize GWATX/Y in seaice_init
227    o Apply mask on Fresh-Water flux (needed for SSH forcing).
228      update output.txt of exp. global_ocean_ebm & cpl_aim+ocn (affects cg2d residual)
229    o seaice: add runtime flags for turning angles (default to zero)
230    o Adding runtime parameter to exf/, ctrl/, to remove on-the-fly global mean
231      and trend from exf forcing and ctrl control adjustments
232    o fix variable aliasing in gad_calc_rhs that cannot be handled by TAF
233      (since checkpoint57x_post)
234    o change the default rotation period to 86164.s = the Earth rotation
235    o 1rst implementation of Implicit IGW using the 3-D solver (use3Dsolver=T)
236      and based on a reference stratification. Tested within hs94.cs-32x32x5.
237    o seaice advection: add code for choosing between the default (2nd order
238      central differences) and multiDim advection schemes provided by
239      pkg/generic_advdiff
240    o seaice:
241      - removed all references to SEAICE_GRID.h fields from
242        dynsolver, advect, diffus, lsr, without changing the results of lab_sea
243        (cubed-sphere configuration will change a little)
244      - grid computations in seaice_init are obsolete now.
245      - cleaned up code a little so that is easier to read (hopefully).
246      - added new (better?) discretizations of default advection and diffusion
247        (turn on with SEAICEuseFluxForm)
248      - replace 1 in 3d global fields by kSurface in growth.F
249      
250    checkpoint58a_post
251    o seaice:
252      - bug fix in advect.F
253    o shelfice:
254      - separate shelfice load anomaly from pload (breaks with time
255        dependent forcing), => introduce constant field shelficeLoadAnomaly.
256        Its default is 0., but it may be computed more cleverly from (unknown)
257        t- and s-profiles (tRef, sRef) and actual EOS. For now this has to be
258        done offline. A good approximation of the pressure load anomaly is
259        necessary to avoid large initial adjustment processes underneath
260        deep-reaching shelfice.
261      - small fix in ISOMIP shelfice_thermodynamics
262      - add more sophisticated thermodynamics of Hellmer (1989), this is
263        now the default
264      - give a few constants more intuitive names
265    o add code to balance EmPmP and Qnet at the end of do_ocean_physics. Useful
266      if bulk formulae are used in long integration (especially EmPmR). Turn
267      on with balanceEmPmR = .true. or balanceQnet = .true. in data, PARM01
268      if balancePrintMean, the imbalance that is substracted is printed to
269      STDOUT.
270    o fix bug (typo) in obcs_apply_eta.F
271    o add a new package shelfice which enables us to model the circulation
272      underneath shelf-ice with draughts of hundreds of meters.
273     - works
274     - to do: + include improved thermodynamics
275              + check whether kSurfC (from model/inc/SURFACE.h) can be used
276                instead of new field kTopC
277              + can we use topoFile, Ro_surf and existing code in ini_depth.F
278                instead of new field R_shelfIce and new code in ini_depth.F
279                and ini_mask_etc.F?
280              + adjust vertical mixing schemes?
281    o seaice pkg:
282     - add a cpp-flag to include a simple formula for a salinity dependent
283       freezing point of sea water at the surface
284     - change the contents of SEAICE_TEST_ICE_STRESS_1 so that zonal and
285       meridional stresses are now different (and hopefully correct)
286    o AIM pkg: change threshold on large-scale condensation to conserve Heat.
287       update results of aim.5l_LatLon test ; fix title & units of AIM diagnostics
288       and  change 3 diagnostics names (OSR,OSRCLR,KM -> TSR,TSRCLR,DRAG)
289    o pkg/diagnostics: add options and parameters for regional-statistics
290       diagnostics ; define regions by reading a region-mask from a file
291       (might add other options later)
292    o pkg/bulk_force:
293     - add option and parameters to use AIM surface-flux formulae.
294     - Change loading part: S/R BULKF_FIELDS_LOAD only take care of bulkf_fields ;
295       others forcing fields (defined in PARM05, parameter file "data") are loaded
296       from S/R EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD, as usually (with useBulkforce = T or F).
297     - initialise all bulkf_fields in bulkf_init.F ; do in-lining of exf_bulkcdn.F
298     - use the right EXCH call for uwind,vwind (to work on CS-grid).
299     - re-arrange header files (move parameters from BULKF.h to BULKF_PARAMS.h)
300       and parameters (note: calcWindStress replaces .NOT.readwindstress).
301     - cleaner interface with pkg/thSIce (new S/R THSICE_GET_PRECIP).
302    
303    checkpoint58
304    o add "--embed-source" option to genmake2 which, when the supporting
305      tools can be compiled (as determined by genmake2) will turn on the
306      embed_files package which then embeds the entire MITgcm source code
307      (*.[fFhc] + Makefile) used for the build within the executable
308      - requested by CNH but off by default
309      - adds a paltry <9MB to the mitgcmuv executable in most cases
310      - only writes the output when useEMBEDSRC in eedata is true
311    o clean up 3-dim. relaxation codes:
312      * Fix I/O inconsistency in pkg/rbcs: replace precFloat32 by readBinaryPrec
313      * Remove 3-dim. relaxation code from pkg/exf (now use only pkg/rbcs)
314      * Thanks to Tom Haine for testing!
315    
316    checkpoint57z_post
317    o make CG3D solver compatible with Free-surface at k > 1 (p-coordinate):
318      affects output (@ truncation level) of exp. plume_on_slope ; updated.
319    o fix the pickup behavior for obcs in combination with ptracers
320    o fix a bug in ptracers_external_fields_load
321    o no AB-2 at the first iteration for Gw (consistent with Gu,Gv,Gt,Gs ...)
322      affects results of NH experiments (but all our NH tests have Gw[it=1]==0 !!)
323    o transfered surface NH pressure to eta field (if exactConserv).
324    o gmredi: fix bugs in slope tapering ldd97 (depthZ had the wrong sign)
325         and update lab_sea output.txt file.
326    o completing 3-dim. relaxation code: additional term
327         1/tau*( theta(i,j,k) - thetaStar(i,j,k) )
328      in S/R EXTERNAL_FORCING_T (file external_forcing.F)
329      * At compile time, in "EXF_OPTIONS.h" set
330          #define  ALLOW_CLIMTEMP_RELAXATION
331          #define  ALLOW_CLIMSALT_RELAXATION
332      * At runtime in "data", under &PARM03 set (e.g., units in seconds)
333          tauThetaClimRelax3Dim = 15552000.0,
334          tauSaltClimRelax3Dim  = 15552000.0,
335      * 3 cases:
336          1) Use a constant-in-time 3-dim. field
337          2) Provide 12 3-dim. fields corresponding to Jan., ... , Dec.
338          3) Real-time relax. to time-evolving prescribed field
339    o Adding Laplacian-type smoothness constraint on
340      initial and boundary (forcing) controls (ic, bc)
341      * enable at compile-time via
342        ALLOW_SMOOTH_IC_COST_CONTRIBUTION, ALLOW_SMOOTH_BC_COST_CONTRIBUTION
343      * enable at run-time via mult_smooth_ic = 1, mult_smooth_bc = 1
344      * Absolute scale somewhat unclear so far
345      * no area weighting was included since no other cost term does so far
346    
347    checkpoint57y_post
348    First step for a NLFS adjoint
349    o initially suppress rStar (new flag DISABLE_RSTAR_CODE)
350    o new init. routines for calc_r_star, calc_surf_dr
351    o still need to deal with ini_masks_etc
352    o testreport seemed happy
353    checkpoint57y_pre
354    
355    o obcs: always reset wVel & eta (to zero or prescribe it) at the OBs.
356    o add new package rbcs (for relaxing ptracers at boundaries/depth/surface etc)
357    o add new offset feature to offline pkg (plus minor cleanup)
358    o cfc fixes for final year of integration
359    o clean up GCHEM_OPTIONS.h/DIC_OPTIONS.h (all options should
360      be in GCHEM_OPTIONS).
361    
362    checkpoint57x_post
363    o fix testreport Pb in multiple test experiment.
364    o cleanup our namelist syntax in verification:
365      - make it more F95 standards compliant (some work still needed)
366      - allows the vast majority of our tests to work with gfortran
367    o Non-Hydrostatic:
368     - put all NH variables (formerly in DYNVARS.h & GW.h) in NH_VARS.h
369     - fix exchange calls for CS-grid using the new EXCH_S3D_RL.
370    o Allow to apply AB on T,S rather than on AB(gT,gS):
371     - implemented within #ifdef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3
372     - use the same arrays (gtNm,gsNm) to hold tracer field at previous
373       time-steps (if AB(T,S)) and tendencies (if AB(gT,gS)).
374     - need a "clever" read_pickup to restart from the other AB formulation
375    o move local commom bloc /GlobalLo/ (used for singleCpuIO) in EESUPPORT.h
376    o remove some unused variables (reduces number of compiler warnings)
377    o adjoint
378      * Disable useVariableViscosity for adjoint for time being
379        (there are a number of extensive recomputations)
380      * Initialize certain variables needed for adjoint
381    
382    checkpoint57w_post
383    o pkg/mdsio: use MAX_LEN_FNAM (instead of hard coded 80) for file-names
384                 fix the singleCpuIO RS version of MDSWRITEFIELD
385       and add a WARNING if using globalFiles=T with multi-processors.
386    o write grid-file(s) in only one format (MDS or MNC): default=MNC (if
387      using MNC); can force MDS output by setting writegrid_mnc=F in data.mnc
388    o tracer advection scheme:
389      add DST-2 (=Lax-Wendroff) & 1rst order upwind schemes (the way to get
390       those 2 schemes before, changing GAD_FLUX_LIMITER.h + to recompile,
391       was not very convenient).
392      add implicit version for DST-3 & DST3_Flux_Limit vertical advection;  
393       (further tests needed for the implicit DST & Flux-Limiter schemes).
394    o PTRACERS: added namelist parameter PTRACERS_ref in analogy to tRef
395      and sRef for convenience, handy, when you want to initialize
396      ptracers in a large domain with a constant non-zero value. Also,
397      untangle ptracers_init.F a little.
398    
399    checkpoint57v_post
400    o change dome exp. to use variable viscosity in side-drag terms.
401    o remove all the files from the cfc_offline test since they are now
402      incorporated into tutorial_cfc_offline which has been producing
403      identical results for a few days of testing
404    o add new parameter: sideDragFactor to enable half-slip-side BC
405      and change side-drag S/R to use viscosity from mom_calc_visc
406      (can switch back by setting sideDragFactor=0.); affects results at
407      truncation level; regenerate output for exp.: global_ocean.cs32x10(x3),
408       global_ocean_ebm, global_ocean_pressure, matrix_example & MLAdjust(x5).
409    o vorticity & strain are now computed without masking, to account for
410      no-slip-side BC in variable viscosity calculation ; mask is applied
411      anyway later on, before computing advection/coriolis terms.
412    o modify exp4 to test new obcs support for reading from external files
413      and for passive tracers
414    o fix behavior of ptracers_monitor when monitor output is written to a
415      netcdf-file; still not independent of monitor.F (writes in the same
416      file).
417    o change default value of tRef (put a uniform, meaningful value for ocean
418      & atmos) and initialize sRef (was missing, as Martin mentioned).
419    o Redefine viscC?Leith*.  Change the coefficients of Leith viscosity
420      to be proportional to enstrophy dissipation length.  Thus,
421       viscC?leith?_new=pi*(viscC?leith?_old)^(1/3)
422      This is now consistent with Smagorinsky and with the manual.
423    
424    checkpoint57u_post
425    o OBCS and PTRACERS: add open boundary support for passive tracers
426      - either use homogenous (pseudo) v.Neumann conditions or prescribe
427        OB-values from file; this is not different from the way theta and salinity
428        are treated
429      - however, Orlanski-radiation conditions are not supported, and the model
430        will stop if you use pTracers and Orlanski at the same time.
431      - beefed up the rountine obcs_external_fields_load: now only those open
432        boundary values are overwritten with values from files for which there
433        are really files, otherwise the OB-fields remain untouched. This makes
434        it possible to use different OBs at different ends of the domain (as
435        with EXF)
436    o reduce number of exch calls in shap_filt (s2).
437    o CS-grid: fix divergence contribution to Leith viscosity. Affects (@
438      truncation level) 4/5 MLAdjust test results (11&12 digits match).
439    
440    checkpoint57t_post
441    o test biharmonic viscosity + no-slip with exp: global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
442    o finish adding brackets (coriolis S/R, vecinv) in multi-terms sum to get
443      same truncation, independent of the face number: affects affects several
444      test. exp.: Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
445    o fix bug in mom_v_sidedrag (biharmonic viscosity was counted 2 times);
446      note that biharmonic viscosity + no-slip was not tested in any experiment.
447    o fix bug in non-linear free-surf side-drag ; generate new output for
448      global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & global_ocean_pressure.
449    o make mnc honor the writeBinaryPrec flag for most kinds of output
450    o eesupp: split EEPARAMS into EESIZE/EEPARAMS and add a vector global sum
451    o minor change in averaging W (mom_vi_?_vertshear.F) that affects truncation
452      error; update output from global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
453    o add brackets in multi-terms sum to get same truncation, independent of
454      the face number (manage to get exactly same value of gU,gV at the cs-edge)
455      affects several test. exp. Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice).
456    o Clean, new version of mom_calc_visc.  Adds a new feature, viscAhRemax
457      and viscA4Remax, which allow one to limit the minimum viscosity by specifying
458      a maximum grid-scale Reynolds number.  Also, changes all length calculations
459      in the case of grid anisotropy to geometric mean of dx**2 and dy**2.
460      Suggested values of viscosity parameters found in mom_calc_visc.
461      Many new viscosity diagnostics available.
462    
463    checkpoint57s_post
464    o Add clearing-house for viscosity calculations, mom_calc_visc and
465      correct numerous bugs in LeithD and Smagorinsky discretizations.  
466      mom_calc_visc now allows for Smagorinsky, Leith and LeithD to be
467      used simultaneously, and to be used in mom_vecinv and mom_fluxform.
468      Mom_vecinv can be used with standard viscous calculation (mom_vi_hdissip.F)
469      and with Strain-Tension viscous term calculation (mom_hdissip.F).  
470      The Strain-Tension form is now called with useStrainTensonVisc=.true.
471      ViscAhStrain and viscAhTension are now retired.
472    o diagnostics "VISCAHD" & "VISCA4D" replace "VISCAH" & "VISCA4".
473    o In response to JMC's bug report, genmake2 now ignores any soft-links
474      that it finds in the *current* directory when searching for files.
475      Soft-links found in any other source directories will still work as
476      they did before.
477    o add HAVE_SETRLSTK define and useSETRLSTK flag (eedata) which calls
478      a C routine to unlimit the stack size
479    o mnc-ify pkg/aim snapshot vars
480    o mnc-ify pkg/land as requested by Daniel
481    o various changes to mnc including:
482      - all files use the new "BASENAME[[.ITER].{t|f}NUM].nc" format
483      - output can now be grouped so that all files within a group
484          change the ITER portion of their names in lock-step together
485      - can now read ("global") PER-FACE (in addition to PER-TILE) files
486          and works with both EXCH1 and EXCH2 (but needs more testing)
487      - writing works for all verification test cases w/ g77 on Linux
488    
489    checkpoint57r_post
490    o make MNC variable initialization happen earlier
491    o add diagnostics for (almost) each term of the momentum Eq.
492    o remove SST,SSS,UVEL_k2,VVEL_k2 diagnostics.
493    o move pkg timeave out of pkg-groups "oceanic" & "atmospheric" (pkg/pkg_groups)
494    o remove MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT option ;
495      add "dumpInitAndLast" to replace "nodumps" (and MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT).
496    o move some basic S/R (used elsewhere in the code) from pkg/mdsio to eesupp/src
497      allows to compile without pkg/mdsio (& test successfully hs94.1x64x5)
498    o add MNC output for adjoint of EXF (adexf), SEAICE (adseaice)
499    o add time-dependent SST, SSS control
500    o cost terms in ecco/ modularized (new cost_generic.F)
501    o cost_averages routines are modularized (new cost_averagesgeneric.F)
502    o new infrastructure for seaice model vs. obs misfits in seaice/
503      * driver from the_main_loop.F is seaice_cost_driver.F
504      * first term is AREA vs. SMR observation misfit (ALLOW_SEAICE_COST_SMR_AREA)
505      * gradient check in Exp. 6a of natl_box_adjoint/
506    o natl_box_adjoint input_seaice for Lab. Sea now available online via wget
507      (see README file)
508    
509    checkpoint57q_post
510    o fix initialisation Pb in calc_gw (get NANs in exp5 with g77)
511    o fix annoying months-old bug in mnc/mdsio output for seaice pkg
512      - bug was reported by Jean-Michel and Ian Fenty
513    o fix initialization Pb in AIM-Ocean coupled model (aim_sice2aim.F)
514      update exp. cpl_aim+ocn output.
515    o Implement 4-level checkpointing: AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
516      Needed for high-res. runs with large global files
517      to be able to limit tapelev size
518    o Changed some tests for adjoint:
519      * carbon/ now tests AUTODIFF_2_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
520      * natl_box_adjoint/code_bulk/ tests AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
521      * global_ocean.90x40x15/ back to default 3-level checkpointing
522    o Modifications to enable scripted COMMON to MODULE conversion
523      * verification/OpenAD/code/ has necessary scripts and description;
524      * converts, compiles and runs successfully;
525    
526    checkpoint57p_post
527    o reading of delXfile & delYfile moved from ini_parms.F to ini_grid.F
528    o move ${PKG}_MNC_INIT from ${PKG}_READ_PARAMS to ${PKG}_INIT_FIXED
529      (already the case for some pkgs, including recent MNC_init, e.g. thsice)
530    o call CALC_GW from DYNAMICS (instead of from FORWARD_STEP)
531    o Dissipation & phiHyd gradient are always added to gU,gV in timestep.F
532      (was already the case for dissipation with mom_vecinv,
533       and also the case for grad.PhiHyd when staggered-timeStep)
534      This will allow to put dissipation out-off the AB time-stepping.
535     Unfortunately, affects truncation error. Update output of exp. that "fails"
536      (cg2d matching number) and leave the others for later: front_relax(10),
537      global_ocean_pressure(10),ideal_2D_oce(10),internal_wave(9),lab_sea(12),
538      matrix_example(7!),natl_box(12),plume_on_slope(11),vermix(12x3,11x2).
539    
540    checkpoint57o_post
541    o fix MNC/MDSIO flags in PTRACERS so that (1) it works, and
542      (2) its ready to be documented during the 20050801 DocFest
543    o MNC-ify the gmredi package -- tested and works w/ and w/o mnc
544      for ideal_2D_oce and lab_sea on linux_ia32_g77
545    o set to #undef CTRL_SET_OLD_MAXCVARS_30
546      in global1x1_tot/code_seaice_adj to access indices 32, 33
547      (worth another tag)
548    
549    checkpoint57n_post
550    o adding precip control xx_precip 32
551    o adding swflux control xx_swflux 33
552    o Replacing 10 forcing penalty cost routines by 1 generic.
553    o Implementing partitioning in time-mean and variable adjustment
554      for atmos. state.
555    o Time-mean constant error is now read in data.ecco (instead of hard-coded)
556  o in natl_box_adjoint:  o in natl_box_adjoint:
557    * updated: results_bulk/    * updated exp 1 to 10
558    * not yet updated: results/, results_seaice/      (but does not have time-mean vs. variable split results yet)
559    o updated global1x1/*_seaice_adj/
560      to incorporate latest changes
561    o enable useSingleCpuIO for mdsio vector routines
562      (applies in particular to tapelev I/O)
563    o removed inefficient K-loop in all active_file*control*.F
564    
565  checkpoint57m_post  checkpoint57m_post
566  o re-arrange exp. adjustment.cs-32x32x1 (adjust_nlfs.cs-32x32x1 merge into)  o re-arrange exp. adjustment.cs-32x32x1 (adjust_nlfs.cs-32x32x1 merge into)
