4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7  o adding precip control xx_precip  o verification: remove 2nd copy of input files and use script "prepare_run"
8  o moved ptracer ctrl index 17 -> 32    to make a symbolic link to the 1rst copy (reduce downloaded size by ~81.M)
9    o mom_common/vecinv/fluxform: fix a few initialisation isssues
10    o profiles: fix for multithreaded case
11    
12    o diagnostics: rename few diags:
13      s/'PRESSURE'/'RCENTER '/g
14      s/'TICE    '/'oceFreez'/g
15      s/'TAUX    '/'oceTAUX '/g
16      s/'TAUY    '/'oceTAUY '/g
17      s/'SWFLUX  '/'oceQsw  '/g
18      s/DIFx/DFxE/g
19      s/DIFy/DFyE/g
20      and add few ocean-forcing diagnostics:
21      atmPload, sIceLoad, oceQnet, oceFWflx, oceSflux, surForcT & surForcS
22    o modifications to pkg/seaice/growth.F and budget.F, which change results of
23      lab_sea experiment: HSNOW was sometimes treated as effective and sometimes
24      as actual snow thickness.  It now refers everywhere to effective snow
25      thickness, meaning that for non-zero AREA, actual thickness is HEFF/AREA.
26    
27    checkpoint58r_post
28    o modifications to pkg/seaice/growth.F, which change results of
29      lab_sea experiment: fixes pertain to melting snow over open water, to
30      masking EVAP under sea ice, and to using the correct AREA variable for
31      computations of EVAP, PRECIP, HSNOW, and GHEFF
32    o add ability to read bathy, salt, and theta using MNC (off by def)
33    o add flooding algorithm and advection of HSNOW for pkg/seaice;
34      both are turned off by default and do no change any results
35    o seaice advection with pkg/thsice: a step toward the use of non-linear
36      advection scheme, but #ifdef or commented out for now (requires more EXCH).
37    o use standard version of PTRACERS_INI_VARIA in tutorial_tracer_adjsens
38      (identical results) and the standard version of EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD
39      in natl_box (affects results @ truncation level: update output.txt)
40    o multi-threading and IO:
41      - replace some call to MDSIO S/R by the corresponding READ/WRITE_FLD S/R.
42      - remove most of BEGIN_MASTER/ END_MASTER around READ/WRITE_FLD S/R calls
43        (needed to work with SingleCpuIO): tested in all verif. exp.
44    o GAD: use simpler DST3 formulation as default (old version left within #ifdef)
45      affects the results (but none of the verification test uses this scheme).
46    o Adding some pkg/diagnostics capability to pkg/seaice
47      (will certainly be subject to changes)
48    o ctrl: adding new control variables:
49      lwflux, lwdown, evap, snowprecip, apressure, runoff
50    
51    checkpoint58q_post
52    o added CPP_EEOPTIONS.h flag DISABLE_MPI_READY_TO_RECEIVE.  Speeds up
53      1/6-deg Southern Ocean configuration by 8% on IBM Datastar and
54      high_res_cube configuration by 4% on Columbia.
55    o clean-up multi-threaded problems (reported by debugger tcheck on ACES);
56      add (in global_with_exf/code) a version of EXF_INTERP_READ without
57      dynamical allocation (seems to work in multi-threaded).
58    o new function "MASTER_CPU_IO" (=T if master thread & master CPU, if using
59      single CPU io) so that TAF does not have to see EESUPPORT.h
60    o pkg/seaice: implement sea-ice loading (when using RealFreshWaterFlux)
61    
62    checkpoint58p_post
63    o obcs: stop if obcs is used with useCDscheme = .true.
64    o shelfice:
65     - fix a sign error so that no slip at shelfice interface works
66     - remove stop for combination non-hydrostatic code and shelfice. That does
67       not mean, that the results are correct, but at least they are numerically
68       stable
69    o diagnoctics: modify UVELPHI and VVELPHI to include hfac (i.e. mass-weighted)
70    o added adjoint exch routined for all exch*3d* routines
71      and updated flow directives
72    
73    checkpoint58o_post
74    o replace calls to EXCH_Z & EXCH_UV_AGRID: use the new _3D_ version ;
75      remove old subroutines (_XY_ & _XYZ_); update the adjoint version.
76    o change controling S/R for writing pickup file (new S/R do_write_pickup)
77      and clean-up reading/writing of pickup files.
78    o fix local version of read/write pickup (NH part) in rotating_tank/code
79    o simplify EXCH interface:
80     - change _XYZ_ interface to _3D_ subroutine (with 3rd dim in argument list)
81     - not often used EXCH S/R (exch_z, exch_uv_agrid): keep only the _3D_ version
82    o added the regrid package
83    o shelfice:
84     - add a simple boundary layer scheme to reduce noise
85     - fix the indexing in shelfice_u/v_drag so that there will be actually drag
86    
87    checkpoint58n_post
88    o fix globalArea multi-threaded calculation: need to apply GLOBAL_SUM to
89       local variable (not in common block).
90    o lot of small changes for multi-threaded. Most tests (using OMP & ifort) pass.
91      - still problems with pkgs: mnc, exp2, dic, cal, exf (and probably more);
92      - still BEGIN_MASTER/END_MASTER to remove around READ/WRITE_FLD S/R calls
93        to work with SingleCpuIO.
94    o add "_d 0" to real constant of pkg/cfc subroutines ;
95       update exp. cfc_exemple & tutorial_cfc_offline output files.
96    o multi-threading and IO:
97      - all threads call READ_FLD S/R (needed if using SingleCpuIO):
98        (no BEGIN_MASTER/ END_MASTER around the call, but inside MDSIO S/R.
99      - barrier before and after reading.
100      - stop if other than master is calling MDS_WRITELOCAL (if #undef IO_THREAD_SAFE)
101      - avoid using MDS_WRITELOCAL for LAND pkg output.
102      - new S/R AIM_WRITE_PHYS (replaces AIM_WRITE_LOCAL) to write AIM physics
103        common-block variables ; Allows multi-threading with master-thread IO.
104    o change default MAX_NO_THREADS from 32 to 4 ;
105      and stop cleanly when MAX_NO_THREADS is too small.
106    o add S/R BAR_CHECK to check multi-threaded barrier synchronization
107    
108    checkpoint58m_post
109    o add a Non-Hydroatatic test (with 3-D Coriolis, NHMTerms, biharmonic Visc.
110       and side-drag) on CS-grid : global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
111    o make "tutorial_global_oce_latlon" from standard "global_ocean.90x40x15" exp.
112       keep global_ocean.90x40x15 (for AD testing) with former secondary test
113       (".qshyd") as the main test (mv output.qshyd.txt to output.txt)
114    o CVS modules: update MITgcm_verif_basic; remove MITgcm_verif_ocean & _verif_atmos;
115        add MITgcm_tutorials (= code + all the tutorials)
116    o ecco, option to compute cost for total ssh (mean+anom)
117    o consistent with addition of ptracer and ssh in pkg/profiles
118    o profiles: adding ptracer and ssh
119    o testreport: change multi-test output-file name
120      (from output.txt.{name} to output.{name}.txt)
121    o profiles: now ok for mutli-tiles case
122    o seaice: add 4 parameters for different advection schemes for area,
123      (effective) seaice thickness, enthalphy, and snow height. Their default
124      is the standard parameter SEAICEadvScheme
125    o calc_gw:
126     - add cosFacU in zonal viscous flux (harmonic.visc.).
127     - put back side-drag (call new S/R MOM_W_SIDEDRAG) and output.txt.
128       of tutorial_plume_on_slope.
129    o obcs_calc.F : fix index Pb in OBSeta & OBNeta (Thanks to Gianmaria).
130    o calc_gw: true flux-form, account for horizontal grid spacing.
131      update rotating_tank results, but not plume_on_slope (affected at
132      truncation level, 11 digits).
133    
134    checkpoint58l_post
135    o calc_gw:
136     - take bi,bj loops outside calc_gw to fix Pb with local array KappaRU,V
137     - remove side-drag for now (need to fix it); update plume_on_slope results.
138     - fix for partial-cell & non-uniform dz; update plume_on_slope results.
139    o commit code to make SST/SSS weights spatially variable
140      (based on either variable in-situ or variable initial T/S weights)
141    o pkg/ecco:
142      * commit code to relax deviations of xx_theta, xx_salt to 5*sigma,
143        now based on horizontally varying weights wthetaLev, wsaltLev
144      * cost_averagesflags now returns year indices in addition to day, month
145      * sflux balance is performed on annual basis
146        (sflxumm, sfluxmm2, bal_sfluxmm)
147      * for SSH anomaly, separate more cleanly contrib from T/P, ERS, GFO,
148        including separate counting and multipliers
149    o pkg/rbcs
150      * add all necessary infrastructure for pkg/rbcs levN adjoint checkpointing
151    
152    checkpoint58k_post
153    o testreport:
154     - always build in dir. "build" (if not there, mkdir build instead of building
155       & running in input)
156     - run in dir run (if it exists), in build otherwise.
157     - call prepare_run (if input/prepare_run exists)
158     - run multi-threaded test (with new option: "-mth") if file input/eedata.mth exists.
159    o pkg/exf modifications to interpolation and rotation routines for more
160       reasonable treatment of North Pole singularity: for tracers North Pole
161       value is set to northernmost zonal-mean value, for zonal velocity it is
162       set to zero, and for meridional velocity it is set to northernmost value.
163    o pkg/exf/exf_check_range.F
164     - add tile index to diagnostics and move stop statement to the very
165       end of the routine.
166    o pkg/diagnostics: (diagnostics_main_init.F)
167      define title of isomorphic variables according to the current config.
168    o pkg/thsice with pkg/seaice dynamics:
169    - fix domain of computation (interior only, required for exf) and do exchanges
170    - seaice-dynamics forcing: add atmospheric and seaice loading to SSH gradient
171    o towards a standard way of dealing with multi-threading in MONITOR
172      and ${PKG}_MONITOR (all except ptracers_monitor) subroutines.
173    o Pass variable viscosities (vertical and horizontal, e.g., KPP or Leith)
174       to W momentum equation in nonhydrostatic and quasihydrostatic runs.  
175    o make exf_monitor & seaice_monitor independant of the main (dynamics) monitor.
176    o pkg/seaice: fix SEAICEuseEVPpickup parameter (put it in a commom block)
177    o generic_advdiff: DST advection S/R : use local copy of velocity to compute CFL
178       (problems ? with gradient check in bottom_ctrl_5x5 adjoint test)
179    o tracer advection:
180     - clean-up and simplify calc_common_factors.F
181     - make a local copy of velocity and pass it (as u,v,r_Trans) to DST tracer
182       advection subroutine (but still not used within DST advection S/R)
183    o rename pkg aim_ocn_coupler to atm_ocn_coupler (later on, will be used without aim)
184    
185    checkpoint58j_post
186    o new driver S/R: LOAD_FIELDS_DRIVER to load external forcing fields
187      from file (collects calls previously in FORWARD_STEP)
188    o move call to SEAICE_MODEL from FORWARD_STEP to DO_OCEANIC_PHYS
189    o adjoint store dir. adjusted accordingly
190    o genmake2
191      replace target "ad_taf" by $(EXE_AD) ; add $(EXE_AD) to the make CLEAN list.
192    
193    checkpoint58i_post
194    o pkg/seaice: add parameter that allows to scale/turn off effect of seaice
195      on wind stress (SEAICEstressFactor defaults to 1.)
196    o Total number of Timers is finite (<=40): comment out 2 non-essential one
197      in the_main_loop.F to avoid Pb (e.g., when running fizhi test)
198    o vector_invariant: fix highOrderVorticity(=4.th.Order) advection
199      on CS-grid: no longer loosing mass.
200    o exf & curvilinear-grid: no longer modify longitude xC & xG.
201    o pkg/ggl90: fix sloppy output and fix a bug
202    o pkg/seaice: added SEAICEuseEVPpickup parameter
203      - Set to false in order to start EVP solver with
204        non-EVP pickup files when using SEAICEuseEVP
205      - fix sign error in diffusion in seaice_calc_rhs
206    
207    checkpoint58h_post

212      o update autodiff support routines
213      o re-initialise hfac after ctrl_depth_ini
214      o works for 5x5 box, doesnt work for global_ocean.90x40x15
215    * Adding verification for 5x5 box (4-layer) bottom topography control
216    
217    checkpoint58g_post
218    o pkg/diagnostics: implement "periodic averaging diagnostics" (e.g.,
219       used for mean seasonal cycle, mean diurnal cycle); add an example
220       in verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.thsice/data.diagnostics
221    o pkg/ggl90:
222      - add parameter (minimum surface kinetic energy)
223      - fix bug (avoiding division by zero)
224    o couple pkg/thsice to pkg/seaice:
225      - modify advection in seaice to accomodate new scalar fields to be advected
226      - only muliDimAdection scheme work with seaice/thsice
227      - mapping of thsice-variables to seaice-variables, back and forth
228      - does not break the verification experiments, but does not give the
229        desired results either
230    o pkg/seaice
231      - make (default) second order advection a bit less confusing?
232    
233    checkpoint58f_post
234    o couple pkg/thsice and pkg/exf (as a preparation for coupling pkg/thsice
235      to pkg/seaice):
236      - new routines thsice_map_exf and thsice_get_exf provide the interface
237      - add an additional formal parameter to thsice_solve4temp
238    o pkg/exf:
239      - add new fields wspeed, snowprecip (to be able to couple to thsice)
240      - correct Stefan-Boltzmann constant
241      - new parameter for longwave surface emittance
242      - separate some stuff from exf_bulkformulae into new routines  
243        exf_radiation, exf_wind
244      - add new parameters and constants: longwave emissivity for ocean, ice
245        and snow, evaporation parameters over ice
246      - decouple wind/stress computation from ALLOW_BULKFORMULA: always compute
247        either wind from stress or stress from wind
248    o pkg/thSIce:
249    - split thsice_step_fwd.F in 2 S/R: thsice_step_temp.F & thsice_step_fwd.F
250    - put i,j loops inside S/R: THSICE_ALBEDO, THSICE_SOLVE4TEMP, THSICE_EXTEND
251       and THSICE_CALC_THICKN
252    - for now, call to THSICE_GET_BULKF remains inside i,j loops.
253    - add CPP option: ALLOW_DBUG_THSICE and header file THSICE_DEBUG.h
254      to make debugging easier.
255    - affects results (@ truncation level) of global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice: update output
256    o pkg/bulk_force:
257      - clean-up comments and parameters ;
258      - add new Bulk-Formulae from Large and Yeager, 2004, NCAR/TN-460+STR ;
259    o fix bug in aim+thsice albedo: snow & ice thickness arguments were switched;
260      generate new output for test-experiment: aim.5l_cs.thSI
261    o results_ad : rename "output.txt_adm" to "output_adm.txt" and change
262      testreport accordingly
263    
264    checkpoint58e_post
265    o SEAICE_CGRID adjoint done
266    o R_STAR adjoint implemented.
267      * Seems to just work (based on global_ocean.90x40x15/code_ad_nlfs/ )
268      * need to sort out init. of h0facc, etc.
269    o Make pkg/profile fully independent of ecco,cost, etc. stuff
270      to be able to use it in pure forward.
271    
272    checkpoint58d_post
273    o upgrade simple test-experiment to tutorial example:
274     step.1: duplicate the experiment and (step.2) will remove the old copy.
275      tutorial_barotropic_gyre      <- copy of exp0     (R1:barotropic_gyre_in_a_box)
276      tutorial_baroclinic_gyre      <- copy of exp1     (R1:baroclinic_gyre_on_a_sphere)
277      tutorial_global_oce_latlon    <- empty for now    (R1:global_ocean_circulation)
278      tutorial_global_oce_biogeo    <- copy of dic_example
279      tutorial_deep_convection      <- almost like exp5 (R1:nonhydrostatic_deep_convection)
280      tutorial_plume_on_slope       <- copy of plume_on_slope
281      tutorial_tracer_adjsens       <- copy of carbon   (R1:tracer_adjoint_sensitivity)
282      tutorial_global_oce_optim     <- empty for now (David ?)
283      tutorial_global_oce_in_p      <- copy of global_ocean_pressure
284     some tutorials (R1) were already checked-in under tutorial_examples in release1_branch
285    o correct a sign problem in cost_scat.F
286    o obcs and ptracers: fix boundary conditions for advections schemes
287      with larger stencil
288    o thsice adjoint: start
289    o mom_vecinv: add ISOTROPIC_COS_SCALING flags to mom_vi_hdissip for
290      completeness
291    o mom_fluxform: fixing the mutual use of ISOTROPIC_COS_SCALING
292      and COSINEMETH_III, add comments in default CPP_OPTIONS.h

294      * avoid extensive recomputatations
295      * fix missing re-init. of gptr (missed by TAF)
296    o obcs: add a flag (OBCSprintDiags, defaults is true) that allows
297      me to turn off the excessive output to STDOUT that this package produces
298    o move NH metric terms & 3.D Coriolis S/R to pkg/mom_common
299      and add those terms in Vector-Invariant formulation.
300    o in ctrl pkg, if ALLOW_CAL, use monthly mean controls
301      if the control period (xx_hfluxperiod etc) is 0
302    o in profiles pkg, clean routines and fix details
303    o in ecco pkg, reading ssh data:
304      fix problem in case the model does not start at iter0=0
305    o fix mnc-pickup/restart for ptracers
306    o new package prifiles:
307      code to compute profile-based cost by Gael Forget
308      (modifs in ecco, ctrl, autodiff)
309    o Benign bug fix in initialization (spotted by M. Mazloff) of
310      ctrl_set_globfld_xz.F ctrl_set_globfld_yz.F
311    
312    checkpoint58c_post
313    o adjoint: finish NLFS adjoint and provide reference output in
314      verification/global_ocean.90x40x15/results_ad_nlfs
315    o seaice: add an EVP solver following Hunke and Dukowicz (1997) and the
316      documentation of CICE. Turn on by defining SEAICE_ALLOW_EVP in
317      SEAICE_OPTIONS.h and SEAICEuseEVP=.true. in data.seaice. Works only
318      with SEAICE_CGRID defined.
319    o move calendarDumps from "data" to "data.cal" and clean-up the code
320      with a simple call to pkg/cal S/R: CAL_TIME2WRITE
321    o add useEXF & useCAL flags (for now, set in hard-coded way)
322    o add S/R to compute NH-metrics terms & Coriolis f' in vertical momentum
323      (were missing in NH mode, and wrong in quasihydrostatic mode).
324      waiting for Chris updated version of calc_gw to add those CALLs.
325    o fix bug in quasihydrostatic S/R ;
326      add a test for this option: global_ocean.90x40x15.qshyd
327    o new S/R "SET_PARMS": set parameters that might depend on the use of some pkgs.
328      (called from INITIALISE_FIXED, after INI_PARMS & PACKAGES_READPARAMS)
329    o add on/off flag useOffLine for package OFFLINE
330    o seaice:
331      - modify advection so that it works also on the C-grid
332      - extend loop ranges in seaice_lsr and seaice_dynsolver; fixes
333        problem in multi-tile runs with C-grid
334      - add flags for clipping ice velocities and/or masking solver forcing
335      - fix drag (ocean on ice) formulation and a bug that caused noise in the
336        C-grid solver
337      - added a few comments to seaice_diffusion.F
338      - separate C-grid and B-grid versions more cleanly (UVM and seaiceMaskU/V
339        are now exclusive)
340      - add a new ocean-ice stress coupling method (Hibler and Bryan, 1987) which
341        required re-ordering the code a little:
342       + make DAIRN global variable (defined in SEAICE)
343       + move computation of the viscosities eta and zeta into a new separate
344         routine (because I need to recompute them in seaice_ocean_stress.F)
345    
346    checkpoint58b_post
347    o AIM+thSIce: fix sign of Short-Wave through the Ice ;
348      update output.txt of exp. aim.5l_cs.thSI
349    o various mnc cleanups and improvements:
350      + shrink lookup tables by factor of ~4
351      + better error reporting when running out of lookup space
352      + able to handle longer path/file names (up to 500 chars)
353    o adjoint:
354      - Another overhaul of store dirs. for NLFS to eliminate  "hidden" recomputations.
355      - TBD: "hidden" mom_vecinv recomp. in dynamics
356    o change forcing_In_AB to affects both T,S forcing and Momentum forcing
357     (allow to differentiate between forcing components using new integer flags:
358      momForcingOutAB=1/0 & tracForcingOutAB=1/0)
359     and add new flag to put Dissipation tendency out of Adams-Bashforth.
360    o ecco
361      - enable trend removal from SSH anomaly obs.
362    o adjoint
363      - a fix for PmEpR when #undef EXACT_CONSERV
364      - fix of "hidden" recomp. in thermodynamics (no TAF warnings)
365      - try to fix "hidden" recomp. in forward_step for NLFS
366        (NLFS seems broken sometimes after I checked it in)
367    o seaice:
368     - add c-grid version of the dynamic solver:
369       + three new routines that are the c-grid substitute lsr, dynsolver
370         and ostres
371       + put a few fields that were local to dynsolver into global common
372         blocks, so that I can move the computation of stresses etc into
373         seaice_lsr (saves coding but may break the adjoint).
374     - replace more hardwired parameters by runtime parameters
375     - add ice masks that mask the rhs of the implicit solvers where there
376       is no ice (commented out in seaice_dynsolver, because i am not sure
377       if this works properly), eventually this should replace the clipping
378       of ice velocities in seaice_dynsolver to +/-40cm/s.
379    o remove the BUILD_INFO.h include from CPP_EEOPTIONS.h and explicitly
380      include it only where its needed
381    o move balancing of fluxes before the call of external_forcing_surf
382    o seaice:
383      - correct units of turning angles (now they are really in degrees)
384      - move computation of GWATX/Y out of main routine into dynsolver
385      - initialize GWATX/Y in seaice_init
386    o Apply mask on Fresh-Water flux (needed for SSH forcing).
387      update output.txt of exp. global_ocean_ebm & cpl_aim+ocn (affects cg2d residual)
388    o seaice: add runtime flags for turning angles (default to zero)
389    o Adding runtime parameter to exf/, ctrl/, to remove on-the-fly global mean
390      and trend from exf forcing and ctrl control adjustments
391    o fix variable aliasing in gad_calc_rhs that cannot be handled by TAF
392      (since checkpoint57x_post)
393    o change the default rotation period to 86164.s = the Earth rotation
394    o 1rst implementation of Implicit IGW using the 3-D solver (use3Dsolver=T)
395      and based on a reference stratification. Tested within hs94.cs-32x32x5.
396    o seaice advection: add code for choosing between the default (2nd order
397      central differences) and multiDim advection schemes provided by
398      pkg/generic_advdiff
399    o seaice:
400      - removed all references to SEAICE_GRID.h fields from
401        dynsolver, advect, diffus, lsr, without changing the results of lab_sea
402        (cubed-sphere configuration will change a little)
403      - grid computations in seaice_init are obsolete now.
404      - cleaned up code a little so that is easier to read (hopefully).
405      - added new (better?) discretizations of default advection and diffusion
406        (turn on with SEAICEuseFluxForm)
407      - replace 1 in 3d global fields by kSurface in growth.F
408      
409    checkpoint58a_post
410    o seaice:
411      - bug fix in advect.F
412    o shelfice:
413      - separate shelfice load anomaly from pload (breaks with time
414        dependent forcing), => introduce constant field shelficeLoadAnomaly.
415        Its default is 0., but it may be computed more cleverly from (unknown)
416        t- and s-profiles (tRef, sRef) and actual EOS. For now this has to be
417        done offline. A good approximation of the pressure load anomaly is
418        necessary to avoid large initial adjustment processes underneath
419        deep-reaching shelfice.
420      - small fix in ISOMIP shelfice_thermodynamics
421      - add more sophisticated thermodynamics of Hellmer (1989), this is
422        now the default
423      - give a few constants more intuitive names
424    o add code to balance EmPmP and Qnet at the end of do_ocean_physics. Useful
425      if bulk formulae are used in long integration (especially EmPmR). Turn
426      on with balanceEmPmR = .true. or balanceQnet = .true. in data, PARM01
427      if balancePrintMean, the imbalance that is substracted is printed to
428      STDOUT.
429    o fix bug (typo) in obcs_apply_eta.F
430    o add a new package shelfice which enables us to model the circulation
431      underneath shelf-ice with draughts of hundreds of meters.
432     - works
433     - to do: + include improved thermodynamics
434              + check whether kSurfC (from model/inc/SURFACE.h) can be used
435                instead of new field kTopC
436              + can we use topoFile, Ro_surf and existing code in ini_depth.F
437                instead of new field R_shelfIce and new code in ini_depth.F
438                and ini_mask_etc.F?
439              + adjust vertical mixing schemes?
440    o seaice pkg:
441     - add a cpp-flag to include a simple formula for a salinity dependent
442       freezing point of sea water at the surface
443     - change the contents of SEAICE_TEST_ICE_STRESS_1 so that zonal and
444       meridional stresses are now different (and hopefully correct)
445    o AIM pkg: change threshold on large-scale condensation to conserve Heat.
446       update results of aim.5l_LatLon test ; fix title & units of AIM diagnostics
447       and  change 3 diagnostics names (OSR,OSRCLR,KM -> TSR,TSRCLR,DRAG)
448    o pkg/diagnostics: add options and parameters for regional-statistics
449       diagnostics ; define regions by reading a region-mask from a file
450       (might add other options later)
451    o pkg/bulk_force:
452     - add option and parameters to use AIM surface-flux formulae.
453     - Change loading part: S/R BULKF_FIELDS_LOAD only take care of bulkf_fields ;
454       others forcing fields (defined in PARM05, parameter file "data") are loaded
455       from S/R EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD, as usually (with useBulkforce = T or F).
456     - initialise all bulkf_fields in bulkf_init.F ; do in-lining of exf_bulkcdn.F
457     - use the right EXCH call for uwind,vwind (to work on CS-grid).
458     - re-arrange header files (move parameters from BULKF.h to BULKF_PARAMS.h)
459       and parameters (note: calcWindStress replaces .NOT.readwindstress).
460     - cleaner interface with pkg/thSIce (new S/R THSICE_GET_PRECIP).
461    
462    checkpoint58
463    o add "--embed-source" option to genmake2 which, when the supporting
464      tools can be compiled (as determined by genmake2) will turn on the
465      embed_files package which then embeds the entire MITgcm source code
466      (*.[fFhc] + Makefile) used for the build within the executable
467      - requested by CNH but off by default
468      - adds a paltry <9MB to the mitgcmuv executable in most cases
469      - only writes the output when useEMBEDSRC in eedata is true
470    o clean up 3-dim. relaxation codes:
471      * Fix I/O inconsistency in pkg/rbcs: replace precFloat32 by readBinaryPrec
472      * Remove 3-dim. relaxation code from pkg/exf (now use only pkg/rbcs)
473      * Thanks to Tom Haine for testing!
474    
475    checkpoint57z_post
476    o make CG3D solver compatible with Free-surface at k > 1 (p-coordinate):
477      affects output (@ truncation level) of exp. plume_on_slope ; updated.
478    o fix the pickup behavior for obcs in combination with ptracers
479    o fix a bug in ptracers_external_fields_load
480    o no AB-2 at the first iteration for Gw (consistent with Gu,Gv,Gt,Gs ...)
481      affects results of NH experiments (but all our NH tests have Gw[it=1]==0 !!)
482    o transfered surface NH pressure to eta field (if exactConserv).
483    o gmredi: fix bugs in slope tapering ldd97 (depthZ had the wrong sign)
484         and update lab_sea output.txt file.
485    o completing 3-dim. relaxation code: additional term
486         1/tau*( theta(i,j,k) - thetaStar(i,j,k) )
487      in S/R EXTERNAL_FORCING_T (file external_forcing.F)
488      * At compile time, in "EXF_OPTIONS.h" set
489          #define  ALLOW_CLIMTEMP_RELAXATION
490          #define  ALLOW_CLIMSALT_RELAXATION
491      * At runtime in "data", under &PARM03 set (e.g., units in seconds)
492          tauThetaClimRelax3Dim = 15552000.0,
493          tauSaltClimRelax3Dim  = 15552000.0,
494      * 3 cases:
495          1) Use a constant-in-time 3-dim. field
496          2) Provide 12 3-dim. fields corresponding to Jan., ... , Dec.
497          3) Real-time relax. to time-evolving prescribed field
498    o Adding Laplacian-type smoothness constraint on
499      initial and boundary (forcing) controls (ic, bc)
500      * enable at compile-time via
501        ALLOW_SMOOTH_IC_COST_CONTRIBUTION, ALLOW_SMOOTH_BC_COST_CONTRIBUTION
502      * enable at run-time via mult_smooth_ic = 1, mult_smooth_bc = 1
503      * Absolute scale somewhat unclear so far
504      * no area weighting was included since no other cost term does so far
505    
506    checkpoint57y_post
507    First step for a NLFS adjoint
508    o initially suppress rStar (new flag DISABLE_RSTAR_CODE)
509    o new init. routines for calc_r_star, calc_surf_dr
510    o still need to deal with ini_masks_etc
511    o testreport seemed happy
512    checkpoint57y_pre
513    
514    o obcs: always reset wVel & eta (to zero or prescribe it) at the OBs.
515    o add new package rbcs (for relaxing ptracers at boundaries/depth/surface etc)
516    o add new offset feature to offline pkg (plus minor cleanup)
517    o cfc fixes for final year of integration
518    o clean up GCHEM_OPTIONS.h/DIC_OPTIONS.h (all options should
519      be in GCHEM_OPTIONS).
520    
521    checkpoint57x_post
522    o fix testreport Pb in multiple test experiment.
523    o cleanup our namelist syntax in verification:
524      - make it more F95 standards compliant (some work still needed)
525      - allows the vast majority of our tests to work with gfortran
526    o Non-Hydrostatic:
527     - put all NH variables (formerly in DYNVARS.h & GW.h) in NH_VARS.h
528     - fix exchange calls for CS-grid using the new EXCH_S3D_RL.
529    o Allow to apply AB on T,S rather than on AB(gT,gS):
530     - implemented within #ifdef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3
531     - use the same arrays (gtNm,gsNm) to hold tracer field at previous
532       time-steps (if AB(T,S)) and tendencies (if AB(gT,gS)).
533     - need a "clever" read_pickup to restart from the other AB formulation
534    o move local commom bloc /GlobalLo/ (used for singleCpuIO) in EESUPPORT.h
535    o remove some unused variables (reduces number of compiler warnings)
536    o adjoint
537      * Disable useVariableViscosity for adjoint for time being
538        (there are a number of extensive recomputations)
539      * Initialize certain variables needed for adjoint
540    
541    checkpoint57w_post
542    o pkg/mdsio: use MAX_LEN_FNAM (instead of hard coded 80) for file-names
543                 fix the singleCpuIO RS version of MDSWRITEFIELD
544       and add a WARNING if using globalFiles=T with multi-processors.
545    o write grid-file(s) in only one format (MDS or MNC): default=MNC (if
546      using MNC); can force MDS output by setting writegrid_mnc=F in data.mnc
547    o tracer advection scheme:
548      add DST-2 (=Lax-Wendroff) & 1rst order upwind schemes (the way to get
549       those 2 schemes before, changing GAD_FLUX_LIMITER.h + to recompile,
550       was not very convenient).
551      add implicit version for DST-3 & DST3_Flux_Limit vertical advection;  
552       (further tests needed for the implicit DST & Flux-Limiter schemes).
553    o PTRACERS: added namelist parameter PTRACERS_ref in analogy to tRef
554      and sRef for convenience, handy, when you want to initialize
555      ptracers in a large domain with a constant non-zero value. Also,
556      untangle ptracers_init.F a little.
557    
558    checkpoint57v_post
559    o change dome exp. to use variable viscosity in side-drag terms.
560    o remove all the files from the cfc_offline test since they are now
561      incorporated into tutorial_cfc_offline which has been producing
562      identical results for a few days of testing
563    o add new parameter: sideDragFactor to enable half-slip-side BC
564      and change side-drag S/R to use viscosity from mom_calc_visc
565      (can switch back by setting sideDragFactor=0.); affects results at
566      truncation level; regenerate output for exp.: global_ocean.cs32x10(x3),
567       global_ocean_ebm, global_ocean_pressure, matrix_example & MLAdjust(x5).
568    o vorticity & strain are now computed without masking, to account for
569      no-slip-side BC in variable viscosity calculation ; mask is applied
570      anyway later on, before computing advection/coriolis terms.
571    o modify exp4 to test new obcs support for reading from external files
572      and for passive tracers
573    o fix behavior of ptracers_monitor when monitor output is written to a
574      netcdf-file; still not independent of monitor.F (writes in the same
575      file).
576    o change default value of tRef (put a uniform, meaningful value for ocean
577      & atmos) and initialize sRef (was missing, as Martin mentioned).
578    o Redefine viscC?Leith*.  Change the coefficients of Leith viscosity
579      to be proportional to enstrophy dissipation length.  Thus,
580       viscC?leith?_new=pi*(viscC?leith?_old)^(1/3)
581      This is now consistent with Smagorinsky and with the manual.
582    
583    checkpoint57u_post
584    o OBCS and PTRACERS: add open boundary support for passive tracers
585      - either use homogenous (pseudo) v.Neumann conditions or prescribe
586        OB-values from file; this is not different from the way theta and salinity
587        are treated
588      - however, Orlanski-radiation conditions are not supported, and the model
589        will stop if you use pTracers and Orlanski at the same time.
590      - beefed up the rountine obcs_external_fields_load: now only those open
591        boundary values are overwritten with values from files for which there
592        are really files, otherwise the OB-fields remain untouched. This makes
593        it possible to use different OBs at different ends of the domain (as
594        with EXF)
595    o reduce number of exch calls in shap_filt (s2).
596    o CS-grid: fix divergence contribution to Leith viscosity. Affects (@
597      truncation level) 4/5 MLAdjust test results (11&12 digits match).
598    
599    checkpoint57t_post
600    o test biharmonic viscosity + no-slip with exp: global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
601    o finish adding brackets (coriolis S/R, vecinv) in multi-terms sum to get
602      same truncation, independent of the face number: affects affects several
603      test. exp.: Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
604    o fix bug in mom_v_sidedrag (biharmonic viscosity was counted 2 times);
605      note that biharmonic viscosity + no-slip was not tested in any experiment.
606    o fix bug in non-linear free-surf side-drag ; generate new output for
607      global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & global_ocean_pressure.
608    o make mnc honor the writeBinaryPrec flag for most kinds of output
609    o eesupp: split EEPARAMS into EESIZE/EEPARAMS and add a vector global sum
610    o minor change in averaging W (mom_vi_?_vertshear.F) that affects truncation
611      error; update output from global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
612    o add brackets in multi-terms sum to get same truncation, independent of
613      the face number (manage to get exactly same value of gU,gV at the cs-edge)
614      affects several test. exp. Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice).
615    o Clean, new version of mom_calc_visc.  Adds a new feature, viscAhRemax
616      and viscA4Remax, which allow one to limit the minimum viscosity by specifying
617      a maximum grid-scale Reynolds number.  Also, changes all length calculations
618      in the case of grid anisotropy to geometric mean of dx**2 and dy**2.
619      Suggested values of viscosity parameters found in mom_calc_visc.
620      Many new viscosity diagnostics available.
621    
622    checkpoint57s_post
623    o Add clearing-house for viscosity calculations, mom_calc_visc and
624      correct numerous bugs in LeithD and Smagorinsky discretizations.  
625      mom_calc_visc now allows for Smagorinsky, Leith and LeithD to be
626      used simultaneously, and to be used in mom_vecinv and mom_fluxform.
627      Mom_vecinv can be used with standard viscous calculation (mom_vi_hdissip.F)
628      and with Strain-Tension viscous term calculation (mom_hdissip.F).  
629      The Strain-Tension form is now called with useStrainTensonVisc=.true.
630      ViscAhStrain and viscAhTension are now retired.
631    o diagnostics "VISCAHD" & "VISCA4D" replace "VISCAH" & "VISCA4".
632    o In response to JMC's bug report, genmake2 now ignores any soft-links
633      that it finds in the *current* directory when searching for files.
634      Soft-links found in any other source directories will still work as
635      they did before.
636    o add HAVE_SETRLSTK define and useSETRLSTK flag (eedata) which calls
637      a C routine to unlimit the stack size
638    o mnc-ify pkg/aim snapshot vars
639    o mnc-ify pkg/land as requested by Daniel
640    o various changes to mnc including:
641      - all files use the new "BASENAME[[.ITER].{t|f}NUM].nc" format
642      - output can now be grouped so that all files within a group
643          change the ITER portion of their names in lock-step together
644      - can now read ("global") PER-FACE (in addition to PER-TILE) files
645          and works with both EXCH1 and EXCH2 (but needs more testing)
646      - writing works for all verification test cases w/ g77 on Linux
647    
648    checkpoint57r_post
649    o make MNC variable initialization happen earlier
650    o add diagnostics for (almost) each term of the momentum Eq.
651    o remove SST,SSS,UVEL_k2,VVEL_k2 diagnostics.
652    o move pkg timeave out of pkg-groups "oceanic" & "atmospheric" (pkg/pkg_groups)
653    o remove MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT option ;
654      add "dumpInitAndLast" to replace "nodumps" (and MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT).
655    o move some basic S/R (used elsewhere in the code) from pkg/mdsio to eesupp/src
656      allows to compile without pkg/mdsio (& test successfully hs94.1x64x5)
657    o add MNC output for adjoint of EXF (adexf), SEAICE (adseaice)
658    o add time-dependent SST, SSS control
659    o cost terms in ecco/ modularized (new cost_generic.F)
660    o cost_averages routines are modularized (new cost_averagesgeneric.F)
661    o new infrastructure for seaice model vs. obs misfits in seaice/
662      * driver from the_main_loop.F is seaice_cost_driver.F
663      * first term is AREA vs. SMR observation misfit (ALLOW_SEAICE_COST_SMR_AREA)
664      * gradient check in Exp. 6a of natl_box_adjoint/
665    o natl_box_adjoint input_seaice for Lab. Sea now available online via wget
666      (see README file)
667    
668    checkpoint57q_post
669    o fix initialisation Pb in calc_gw (get NANs in exp5 with g77)
670    o fix annoying months-old bug in mnc/mdsio output for seaice pkg
671      - bug was reported by Jean-Michel and Ian Fenty
672    o fix initialization Pb in AIM-Ocean coupled model (aim_sice2aim.F)
673      update exp. cpl_aim+ocn output.
674    o Implement 4-level checkpointing: AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
675      Needed for high-res. runs with large global files
676      to be able to limit tapelev size
677    o Changed some tests for adjoint:
678      * carbon/ now tests AUTODIFF_2_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
679      * natl_box_adjoint/code_bulk/ tests AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
680      * global_ocean.90x40x15/ back to default 3-level checkpointing
681    o Modifications to enable scripted COMMON to MODULE conversion
682      * verification/OpenAD/code/ has necessary scripts and description;
683      * converts, compiles and runs successfully;
684    
685    checkpoint57p_post
686    o reading of delXfile & delYfile moved from ini_parms.F to ini_grid.F
687    o move ${PKG}_MNC_INIT from ${PKG}_READ_PARAMS to ${PKG}_INIT_FIXED
688      (already the case for some pkgs, including recent MNC_init, e.g. thsice)
689    o call CALC_GW from DYNAMICS (instead of from FORWARD_STEP)
690    o Dissipation & phiHyd gradient are always added to gU,gV in timestep.F
691      (was already the case for dissipation with mom_vecinv,
692       and also the case for grad.PhiHyd when staggered-timeStep)
693      This will allow to put dissipation out-off the AB time-stepping.
694     Unfortunately, affects truncation error. Update output of exp. that "fails"
695      (cg2d matching number) and leave the others for later: front_relax(10),
696      global_ocean_pressure(10),ideal_2D_oce(10),internal_wave(9),lab_sea(12),
697      matrix_example(7!),natl_box(12),plume_on_slope(11),vermix(12x3,11x2).
698    
699    checkpoint57o_post
700    o fix MNC/MDSIO flags in PTRACERS so that (1) it works, and
701      (2) its ready to be documented during the 20050801 DocFest
702    o MNC-ify the gmredi package -- tested and works w/ and w/o mnc
703      for ideal_2D_oce and lab_sea on linux_ia32_g77
704    o set to #undef CTRL_SET_OLD_MAXCVARS_30
705      in global1x1_tot/code_seaice_adj to access indices 32, 33
706      (worth another tag)
707    
708    checkpoint57n_post
709    o adding precip control xx_precip 32
710    o adding swflux control xx_swflux 33
711    o Replacing 10 forcing penalty cost routines by 1 generic.
712    o Implementing partitioning in time-mean and variable adjustment
713      for atmos. state.
714    o Time-mean constant error is now read in data.ecco (instead of hard-coded)
715  o in natl_box_adjoint:  o in natl_box_adjoint:
716    * updated: results_bulk/    * updated exp 1 to 10
717    * not yet updated: results/, results_seaice/      (but does not have time-mean vs. variable split results yet)
718    o updated global1x1/*_seaice_adj/
719      to incorporate latest changes
