4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7  o adding precip control xx_precip  o pkg/kpp: replaced _KPP_RL with _RL
8  o moved ptracer ctrl index 17 -> 32  o bug fixes for vertical diffusivity computations when both KPP and
9        3D diffusivity arrays are used.
10    o pkg/seaice: fix bug in evp solver, while doing that
11      - change (improve?) discretization of stress computations for both
12        cgrid-lsr and evp solver
13      - add a new routine to compute strain rates
14      - the above changes lab_sea results
15      - add no slip conditions for evp solver (off by default), lsr-version
16        may follow
17      - fix exchange for shear at Z-points (does not change lab_sea)
18      - retire SEAICEuseEVP, instead turn on EVP by setting SEAICE_deltaTevp
19        (to force the user to pick a time step since there is not "safe" way
20        of choosing it)
21      - add principal stress diagnostics
22      - rearrange fields for evp a little to avoid having to call a: too many
23        exchanges and b: exchanges for stress trensor components which we do
24        not have.
25      - modify Hibler+Bryan (1987) stress coupling so that it reuses information
26        of evp, complete rewrite for lsr case (latter is does not yet work
27        in all cases)
28    o pkg/kpp: add code to have mixing in shelf ice caverns
29    
30    checkpoint59
31    o pkg/exf:
32      - fix wind-stress location: defined on A-grid (if ALLOW_ATM_WIND &
33        ALLOW_BULKFORMULAE or USE_EXF_INTERPOLATION), otherwise, defined on C-grid
34      - move exf header files from lower_case.h to UPPER_CASE.h ;
35        add missing cvs Header & Name
36      - add adjoint routines and flow dirs for newly used exch_uv_agrid routines
37      - add namelist param. selectStressGridPosition, exf_monFreq
38      - retire many _CLIM routines, and remove data.exf_clim
39        + params moved to data.exf
40        + climsst, climsss now handled by exf_set_gen, i.e.
41          climss?period=0 refers to constant field,
42          climss?period=-12 to monthly forcing
43      - split up namelists in data.exf
44    o pkg/seaice:
45      - remove seaice_exch and seaice_exch_uv
46      - remove superfluous exchange of theta
47      - add myThid to seaice_budget_ocean/ice
48      - add new interface for atmospheric wind forcing (C-grid only)
49        + new routine
50        + two new field (taux, tauy for stress over ice)
51        + removed one global field (DAIRN) for C-grid case only
52    o pkg/thsise
53      - 2nd set of modifs for thsice adjoint in conjunction with exf
54    o enable runtime flag useEXF (useCAL is set to .T. if useEXF=.T.)
55    
56    checkpoint58y_post
57    o Added capability for latitudinal dependence of Bryan and Lewis, 1979
58      vertical diffusivity, similar to that in MOM4; turned on using
59      #define ALLOW_BL79_LAT_VARY in CPP_OPTIONS.h and specified using
60      diffKrBL79*, diffKrBLEQ*, and BL79LatVary in runtime data file.
61    o Added capability for 3D specification of background vertical diffusion
62      coefficient.  This is done by (i) #define ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR
63      in CPP_OPTIONS.h and (ii) specifying file diffKrFile in runtime
64      "data" file that contains the 3D vertical diffusivity coefficients.
65    o ice dynamics (pkg/seaice) with thsice thermodynamics:
66      - add code within pkg thsice to advect & diffuse sea-ice fields
67      similar to (and will replace) what has been added in  seaice_advdiff.F,
68      but: - conserving Mass, Heat & Salt.
69           - better when using non-linear advection scheme (not yet fully tested)
70           - can also be used in atmospheric set-up (for now, only the diffusion).
71    
72    checkpoint58x_post
73    o IO option for global-file compact format:
74      - add options when generating topology (utils/exch2/matlab-topology-generator)
75      - add I/O capability (pkg/mdsio).
76      - adapt utils/matlab/rdmds.m to read this format.
77      for now long-line format not yet supported by pkg/mdsio (& exch2).
78    o shelfice: add a few diagnostics
79    
80    checkpoint58w_post
81    o p-coord. non-hydrostatic using reference profile for w <-> omega conversion:
82      rVel2wUnit & wUnit2rVel are computed from reference profile Tref,Sref
83      (and replace horiVertRatio in NH code).
84      Update output of exp.: tutorial_global_oce_in_p (useNHMTerms !)
85                         and tutorial_plume_on_slope (sensitive to truncation)
86    o seaice: if ALLOW_ATM_WIND is undefined use wind stress
87      directly to drive seaice model (C-grid only)
88    o exf: when input wind-stress (#undef ALLOW_ATM_WIND):
89     - reintroduce computation of wind from stress,
90     - compute tau (in exf_bulkformulae.F) from windstress averaged to
91       mass points to avoid tau = 0
92     - fix serious bug: (1/3) in Fortran is not the same as (1./3.)
93    o rdmnc.m: make it work with "global" files created with gluemnc
94    o rdmnc.m : some improvements in dealing with singleton dimension
95      (tested on all testreport mnc output files).
96    o genmake2: disable pkg/profiles if netcdf test fails.
97    o cpl_aim+ocn exp.: use consistent rhoConstFresh in Atm & Ocn; update output.
98    o move call to cal_readparms up to make calendar parameters/variable available
99      to all packages
100    
101    checkpoint58v_post
102    o change EOS (from POLY3 to JMD95P) in global_ocean.90x45x15 to get
103      useDynP_inEos_Zc tested.
104    o pkg/exf: changes to properly interpolate/mask/scale initial fields
105    o utils/matlab/cs_grid/read_cs: routines to speed up reading of CS510 fields
106      and portions thereof.  See read_cs.txt for description and examples.
107    o utils/matlab/cs_grid/bk_line: to compute transport through passages,
108      add a script (grt_circ_bkl.m) to generate broken-line between 2 points,
109      following the great-circle arc between those 2 points.
110    o trap un-initialized variable with pathscale compiler on weddell.mit.edu
111      (thanks to Constantinos): fix few problems and get (almost) all exp to pass.
112    o 2nd-Order Moment Advection Scheme (Prather, 1986): first check-in
113     - enable by setting #define GAD_ALLOW_SOM_ADVECT (in GAD_OPTIONS.h)
114     - used without limiter (AdvScheme=80) or with Prather limiter (AdvScheme=81)
115     - still needs work (not working with some options ; efficiency to improve)
116       and serious testing.
117     - use this scheme for temperature & salinity in 2 advection test exp.:
118       advect_xy & advect_xz, respectively.
119    
120    checkpoint58u_post
121    o new test-exp: fizhi-cs-32x32x40 (40 levels) to replace the 10 levels.
122    o move call to INI_FORCING from PACKAGES_INIT_VARIABLES to INITIALISE_VARIA.
123    o testreport: add option "-skipdir" to skip some test.
124    o exf: when input wind-stress (#undef ALLOW_ATM_WIND), by-pass turbulent
125      momentum calculation.
126    o gad_advection: fix vertAdvecScheme (if different from advectionScheme)
127    o some cleaning: usePickupBeforeC35 no longer supported ; remove this option.
128      remove checkpoint.F and the_correction_step.F (no longer used);
129      do the k loop inside CYCLE_TRACER (supposed to be more efficient).
130    o add option (linFSConserveTr) to correct for tracer source/sink due to
131      Linear Free surface
132    o pkg/seaice: fix a bug in the flooding algorithm: turn off the snow machine
133    o pkg/thsice: fix reading mnc-pickups
134    
135    checkpoint58t_post
136    o pkg/diagnostics: fix multi-threaded output (when singleCpuIO=F)
137    o pkg/mdsio:
138     - clean-up mdsio_readfield.F & mdsio_writefield_new.F and
139       move to new files: mdsio_read_field.F (S/R MDS_READ_FIELD) &
140       mdsio_write_field.F (S/R MDS_WRITE_FIELD);
141     - fix multi-threaded singleCpuIO option in MDS_WRITE_FIELD
142     - collect old S/R  in one file: mdsio_rw_field.F (now just a call to
143       either MDS_READ_FIELD or MDS_WRITE_FIELD )
144     - new S/R (to replace MDSWRITEMETA), which allows to write more
145       informations (variable names, time ...) to meta files.
146     - modify rdmds.m to give back the meta file content.
147    o pkg/diagnostics: change vertical interpolation to be safer, and more
148       flexible (define p-levels to interpolate to in data.diagnostics);
149      add argument to S/R DIAGNOSTICS_GET_POINTERS to catch the right
150       diagnostic pointer.
151    o pkg/seaice: more cleaning up of seaice_growth, added many comments
152    o pkg/exf: put runoff0 and runoff1 into the appropriate common block
153    o fix multi-category seaice:
154     - change cpp flag SEAICE_MULTILEVEL to more meaningful name:
155       SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY
156     - fix short wave heat flux
157    o pkg/seaice: change default (SEAICE_OPTIONS.h): use C-grid dynamics
158       and allow to use EVP solver. Change forward lab_sea: test both EVP
159       solver and LSR solver, and use C-grid dynamics (like lab_sea adjoint)
160    o Initial check-in of lab_sea adjoint
161      (very similar to natl_box_adjoint/code_seaice)
162      * used C-grid and EVP solver
163      * used KPP, GM/Redi
164      * uses inAdExact=.TRUE.
165      * gradient checks fail for both ADM and TLM
166        due to sensitive snow melt code in seaice_grwoth (look for "JZ")
167        f.d. gradients actually seem more problematic than ADM, TLM gradients;
168        issue is related to forward mismatch between g77 an ifort
169    o pkg/seaice: overhaul of thermodynamics
170     - growth.F and groatb.F are replaced by new routine seaice_growth.F
171     - budget.F is replaced by two new routines seaice_budget_ocean/ice.F
172     - move a few global fields out of SEAICE.h into seaice_growth.F and
173       make them 2D (FICE/QNETO/ ...)
174     - remove FO (it is the same as QNETO)
175     - introduce a few local fields to avoid modifying external fields such
176       as atemp, etc.
177    
178    checkpoint58s_post
179    o pkg/exf: moved exf_init_runoff.F to exf_init.F and exf_set_gen.F
180      changed exf_set_gen.F so that
181        genperiod=0 means input file is one time-constant field and
182        genperiod=-12 means input file contains 12 monthly means
183    o CG2D: use pre-computed solver main-diagonal (stored in common block);
184      this affects truncation error ; generate new output file for exp. which
185      fails: exp4(12d), fizhi-cs-aqualev20(12d), front_relax(10d),
186        global_ocean.90x40x15(10d), global_ocean.cs32x15(10d).thsice(11d).viscA4(10d),
187        ideal_2D_oce(10d), internal_wave(09d), isomip.htd(11d), matrix_example(07d),
188        MLAdjust(4x11d,12d), natl_box(11d), rotating_tank(12d),
189        tutorial_global_oce_in_p(10d), tutorial_plume_on_slope(11d),
190        vermix(12d).ggl90(12d).my82(11d).opps(12d).pp81(11d)
191    o start implementation of deep-atmosphere and anelastic formulation
192    o verification: remove 2nd copy of input files and use script "prepare_run"
193      to make a symbolic link to the 1rst copy (reduce downloaded size by ~81.M)
194    o mom_common/vecinv/fluxform: fix a few initialisation isssues
195    o profiles: fix for multithreaded case
196    
197    o diagnostics: rename few diags:
198      s/'PRESSURE'/'RCENTER '/g
199      s/'TICE    '/'oceFreez'/g
200      s/'TAUX    '/'oceTAUX '/g
201      s/'TAUY    '/'oceTAUY '/g
202      s/'SWFLUX  '/'oceQsw  '/g
203      s/DIFx/DFxE/g
204      s/DIFy/DFyE/g
205      and add few ocean-forcing diagnostics:
206      atmPload, sIceLoad, oceQnet, oceFWflx, oceSflux, surForcT & surForcS
207    o modifications to pkg/seaice/growth.F and budget.F, which change results of
208      lab_sea experiment: HSNOW was sometimes treated as effective and sometimes
209      as actual snow thickness.  It now refers everywhere to effective snow
210      thickness, meaning that for non-zero AREA, actual thickness is HEFF/AREA.
211    
212    checkpoint58r_post
213    o modifications to pkg/seaice/growth.F, which change results of
214      lab_sea experiment: fixes pertain to melting snow over open water, to
215      masking EVAP under sea ice, and to using the correct AREA variable for
216      computations of EVAP, PRECIP, HSNOW, and GHEFF
217    o add ability to read bathy, salt, and theta using MNC (off by def)
218    o add flooding algorithm and advection of HSNOW for pkg/seaice;
219      both are turned off by default and do no change any results
220    o seaice advection with pkg/thsice: a step toward the use of non-linear
221      advection scheme, but #ifdef or commented out for now (requires more EXCH).
222    o use standard version of PTRACERS_INI_VARIA in tutorial_tracer_adjsens
223      (identical results) and the standard version of EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD
224      in natl_box (affects results @ truncation level: update output.txt)
225    o multi-threading and IO:
226      - replace some call to MDSIO S/R by the corresponding READ/WRITE_FLD S/R.
227      - remove most of BEGIN_MASTER/ END_MASTER around READ/WRITE_FLD S/R calls
228        (needed to work with SingleCpuIO): tested in all verif. exp.
229    o GAD: use simpler DST3 formulation as default (old version left within #ifdef)
230      affects the results (but none of the verification test uses this scheme).
231    o Adding some pkg/diagnostics capability to pkg/seaice
232      (will certainly be subject to changes)
233    o ctrl: adding new control variables:
234      lwflux, lwdown, evap, snowprecip, apressure, runoff
235    
236    checkpoint58q_post
237    o added CPP_EEOPTIONS.h flag DISABLE_MPI_READY_TO_RECEIVE.  Speeds up
238      1/6-deg Southern Ocean configuration by 8% on IBM Datastar and
239      high_res_cube configuration by 4% on Columbia.
240    o clean-up multi-threaded problems (reported by debugger tcheck on ACES);
241      add (in global_with_exf/code) a version of EXF_INTERP_READ without
242      dynamical allocation (seems to work in multi-threaded).
243    o new function "MASTER_CPU_IO" (=T if master thread & master CPU, if using
244      single CPU io) so that TAF does not have to see EESUPPORT.h
245    o pkg/seaice: implement sea-ice loading (when using RealFreshWaterFlux)
246    
247    checkpoint58p_post
248    o obcs: stop if obcs is used with useCDscheme = .true.
249    o shelfice:
250     - fix a sign error so that no slip at shelfice interface works
251     - remove stop for combination non-hydrostatic code and shelfice. That does
252       not mean, that the results are correct, but at least they are numerically
253       stable
254    o diagnoctics: modify UVELPHI and VVELPHI to include hfac (i.e. mass-weighted)
255    o added adjoint exch routined for all exch*3d* routines
256      and updated flow directives
257    
258    checkpoint58o_post
259    o replace calls to EXCH_Z & EXCH_UV_AGRID: use the new _3D_ version ;
260      remove old subroutines (_XY_ & _XYZ_); update the adjoint version.
261    o change controling S/R for writing pickup file (new S/R do_write_pickup)
262      and clean-up reading/writing of pickup files.
263    o fix local version of read/write pickup (NH part) in rotating_tank/code
264    o simplify EXCH interface:
265     - change _XYZ_ interface to _3D_ subroutine (with 3rd dim in argument list)
266     - not often used EXCH S/R (exch_z, exch_uv_agrid): keep only the _3D_ version
267    o added the regrid package
268    o shelfice:
269     - add a simple boundary layer scheme to reduce noise
270     - fix the indexing in shelfice_u/v_drag so that there will be actually drag
271    
272    checkpoint58n_post
273    o fix globalArea multi-threaded calculation: need to apply GLOBAL_SUM to
274       local variable (not in common block).
275    o lot of small changes for multi-threaded. Most tests (using OMP & ifort) pass.
276      - still problems with pkgs: mnc, exp2, dic, cal, exf (and probably more);
277      - still BEGIN_MASTER/END_MASTER to remove around READ/WRITE_FLD S/R calls
278        to work with SingleCpuIO.
279    o add "_d 0" to real constant of pkg/cfc subroutines ;
280       update exp. cfc_exemple & tutorial_cfc_offline output files.
281    o multi-threading and IO:
282      - all threads call READ_FLD S/R (needed if using SingleCpuIO):
283        (no BEGIN_MASTER/ END_MASTER around the call, but inside MDSIO S/R.
284      - barrier before and after reading.
285      - stop if other than master is calling MDS_WRITELOCAL (if #undef IO_THREAD_SAFE)
286      - avoid using MDS_WRITELOCAL for LAND pkg output.
287      - new S/R AIM_WRITE_PHYS (replaces AIM_WRITE_LOCAL) to write AIM physics
288        common-block variables ; Allows multi-threading with master-thread IO.
289    o change default MAX_NO_THREADS from 32 to 4 ;
290      and stop cleanly when MAX_NO_THREADS is too small.
291    o add S/R BAR_CHECK to check multi-threaded barrier synchronization
292    
293    checkpoint58m_post
294    o add a Non-Hydroatatic test (with 3-D Coriolis, NHMTerms, biharmonic Visc.
295       and side-drag) on CS-grid : global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
296    o make "tutorial_global_oce_latlon" from standard "global_ocean.90x40x15" exp.
297       keep global_ocean.90x40x15 (for AD testing) with former secondary test
298       (".qshyd") as the main test (mv output.qshyd.txt to output.txt)
299    o CVS modules: update MITgcm_verif_basic; remove MITgcm_verif_ocean & _verif_atmos;
300        add MITgcm_tutorials (= code + all the tutorials)
301    o ecco, option to compute cost for total ssh (mean+anom)
302    o consistent with addition of ptracer and ssh in pkg/profiles
303    o profiles: adding ptracer and ssh
304    o testreport: change multi-test output-file name
305      (from output.txt.{name} to output.{name}.txt)
306    o profiles: now ok for mutli-tiles case
307    o seaice: add 4 parameters for different advection schemes for area,
308      (effective) seaice thickness, enthalphy, and snow height. Their default
309      is the standard parameter SEAICEadvScheme
310    o calc_gw:
311     - add cosFacU in zonal viscous flux (harmonic.visc.).
312     - put back side-drag (call new S/R MOM_W_SIDEDRAG) and output.txt.
313       of tutorial_plume_on_slope.
314    o obcs_calc.F : fix index Pb in OBSeta & OBNeta (Thanks to Gianmaria).
315    o calc_gw: true flux-form, account for horizontal grid spacing.
316      update rotating_tank results, but not plume_on_slope (affected at
317      truncation level, 11 digits).
318    
319    checkpoint58l_post
320    o calc_gw:
321     - take bi,bj loops outside calc_gw to fix Pb with local array KappaRU,V
322     - remove side-drag for now (need to fix it); update plume_on_slope results.
323     - fix for partial-cell & non-uniform dz; update plume_on_slope results.
324    o commit code to make SST/SSS weights spatially variable
325      (based on either variable in-situ or variable initial T/S weights)
326    o pkg/ecco:
327      * commit code to relax deviations of xx_theta, xx_salt to 5*sigma,
328        now based on horizontally varying weights wthetaLev, wsaltLev
329      * cost_averagesflags now returns year indices in addition to day, month
330      * sflux balance is performed on annual basis
331        (sflxumm, sfluxmm2, bal_sfluxmm)
332      * for SSH anomaly, separate more cleanly contrib from T/P, ERS, GFO,
333        including separate counting and multipliers
334    o pkg/rbcs
335      * add all necessary infrastructure for pkg/rbcs levN adjoint checkpointing
336    
337    checkpoint58k_post
338    o testreport:
339     - always build in dir. "build" (if not there, mkdir build instead of building
340       & running in input)
341     - run in dir run (if it exists), in build otherwise.
342     - call prepare_run (if input/prepare_run exists)
343     - run multi-threaded test (with new option: "-mth") if file input/eedata.mth exists.
344    o pkg/exf modifications to interpolation and rotation routines for more
345       reasonable treatment of North Pole singularity: for tracers North Pole
346       value is set to northernmost zonal-mean value, for zonal velocity it is
347       set to zero, and for meridional velocity it is set to northernmost value.
348    o pkg/exf/exf_check_range.F
349     - add tile index to diagnostics and move stop statement to the very
350       end of the routine.
351    o pkg/diagnostics: (diagnostics_main_init.F)
352      define title of isomorphic variables according to the current config.
353    o pkg/thsice with pkg/seaice dynamics:
354    - fix domain of computation (interior only, required for exf) and do exchanges
355    - seaice-dynamics forcing: add atmospheric and seaice loading to SSH gradient
356    o towards a standard way of dealing with multi-threading in MONITOR
357      and ${PKG}_MONITOR (all except ptracers_monitor) subroutines.
358    o Pass variable viscosities (vertical and horizontal, e.g., KPP or Leith)
359       to W momentum equation in nonhydrostatic and quasihydrostatic runs.  
360    o make exf_monitor & seaice_monitor independant of the main (dynamics) monitor.
361    o pkg/seaice: fix SEAICEuseEVPpickup parameter (put it in a commom block)
362    o generic_advdiff: DST advection S/R : use local copy of velocity to compute CFL
363       (problems ? with gradient check in bottom_ctrl_5x5 adjoint test)
364    o tracer advection:
365     - clean-up and simplify calc_common_factors.F
366     - make a local copy of velocity and pass it (as u,v,r_Trans) to DST tracer
367       advection subroutine (but still not used within DST advection S/R)
368    o rename pkg aim_ocn_coupler to atm_ocn_coupler (later on, will be used without aim)
369    
370    checkpoint58j_post
371    o new driver S/R: LOAD_FIELDS_DRIVER to load external forcing fields
372      from file (collects calls previously in FORWARD_STEP)
373    o move call to SEAICE_MODEL from FORWARD_STEP to DO_OCEANIC_PHYS
374    o adjoint store dir. adjusted accordingly
375    o genmake2
376      replace target "ad_taf" by $(EXE_AD) ; add $(EXE_AD) to the make CLEAN list.
377    
378    checkpoint58i_post
379    o pkg/seaice: add parameter that allows to scale/turn off effect of seaice
380      on wind stress (SEAICEstressFactor defaults to 1.)
381    o Total number of Timers is finite (<=40): comment out 2 non-essential one
382      in the_main_loop.F to avoid Pb (e.g., when running fizhi test)
383    o vector_invariant: fix highOrderVorticity(=4.th.Order) advection
384      on CS-grid: no longer loosing mass.
385    o exf & curvilinear-grid: no longer modify longitude xC & xG.
386    o pkg/ggl90: fix sloppy output and fix a bug
387    o pkg/seaice: added SEAICEuseEVPpickup parameter
388      - Set to false in order to start EVP solver with
389        non-EVP pickup files when using SEAICEuseEVP
390      - fix sign error in diffusion in seaice_calc_rhs
391    
392    checkpoint58h_post
393    * Modifications for bottom topography control
394      o replace hFacC by _hFacC at various places
395      o replace ALLOW_HFACC_CONTROL by ALLOW_DEPTH_CONTROL
396      o add non-self-adjoint cg2d_nsa
397      o update autodiff support routines
398      o re-initialise hfac after ctrl_depth_ini
399      o works for 5x5 box, doesnt work for global_ocean.90x40x15
400    * Adding verification for 5x5 box (4-layer) bottom topography control
401    
402    checkpoint58g_post
403    o pkg/diagnostics: implement "periodic averaging diagnostics" (e.g.,
404       used for mean seasonal cycle, mean diurnal cycle); add an example
405       in verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.thsice/data.diagnostics
406    o pkg/ggl90:
407      - add parameter (minimum surface kinetic energy)
408      - fix bug (avoiding division by zero)
409    o couple pkg/thsice to pkg/seaice:
410      - modify advection in seaice to accomodate new scalar fields to be advected
411      - only muliDimAdection scheme work with seaice/thsice
412      - mapping of thsice-variables to seaice-variables, back and forth
413      - does not break the verification experiments, but does not give the
414        desired results either
415    o pkg/seaice
416      - make (default) second order advection a bit less confusing?
417    
418    checkpoint58f_post
419    o couple pkg/thsice and pkg/exf (as a preparation for coupling pkg/thsice
420      to pkg/seaice):
421      - new routines thsice_map_exf and thsice_get_exf provide the interface
422      - add an additional formal parameter to thsice_solve4temp
423    o pkg/exf:
424      - add new fields wspeed, snowprecip (to be able to couple to thsice)
425      - correct Stefan-Boltzmann constant
426      - new parameter for longwave surface emittance
427      - separate some stuff from exf_bulkformulae into new routines  
428        exf_radiation, exf_wind
429      - add new parameters and constants: longwave emissivity for ocean, ice
430        and snow, evaporation parameters over ice
431      - decouple wind/stress computation from ALLOW_BULKFORMULA: always compute
432        either wind from stress or stress from wind
433    o pkg/thSIce:
434    - split thsice_step_fwd.F in 2 S/R: thsice_step_temp.F & thsice_step_fwd.F
435    - put i,j loops inside S/R: THSICE_ALBEDO, THSICE_SOLVE4TEMP, THSICE_EXTEND
436       and THSICE_CALC_THICKN
437    - for now, call to THSICE_GET_BULKF remains inside i,j loops.
438    - add CPP option: ALLOW_DBUG_THSICE and header file THSICE_DEBUG.h
439      to make debugging easier.
440    - affects results (@ truncation level) of global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice: update output
441    o pkg/bulk_force:
442      - clean-up comments and parameters ;
443      - add new Bulk-Formulae from Large and Yeager, 2004, NCAR/TN-460+STR ;
444    o fix bug in aim+thsice albedo: snow & ice thickness arguments were switched;
445      generate new output for test-experiment: aim.5l_cs.thSI
446    o results_ad : rename "output.txt_adm" to "output_adm.txt" and change
447      testreport accordingly
448    
449    checkpoint58e_post
450    o SEAICE_CGRID adjoint done
451    o R_STAR adjoint implemented.
452      * Seems to just work (based on global_ocean.90x40x15/code_ad_nlfs/ )
453      * need to sort out init. of h0facc, etc.
454    o Make pkg/profile fully independent of ecco,cost, etc. stuff
455      to be able to use it in pure forward.
456    
457    checkpoint58d_post
458    o upgrade simple test-experiment to tutorial example:
459     step.1: duplicate the experiment and (step.2) will remove the old copy.
460      tutorial_barotropic_gyre      <- copy of exp0     (R1:barotropic_gyre_in_a_box)
461      tutorial_baroclinic_gyre      <- copy of exp1     (R1:baroclinic_gyre_on_a_sphere)
462      tutorial_global_oce_latlon    <- empty for now    (R1:global_ocean_circulation)
463      tutorial_global_oce_biogeo    <- copy of dic_example
464      tutorial_deep_convection      <- almost like exp5 (R1:nonhydrostatic_deep_convection)
465      tutorial_plume_on_slope       <- copy of plume_on_slope
466      tutorial_tracer_adjsens       <- copy of carbon   (R1:tracer_adjoint_sensitivity)
467      tutorial_global_oce_optim     <- empty for now (David ?)
468      tutorial_global_oce_in_p      <- copy of global_ocean_pressure
469     some tutorials (R1) were already checked-in under tutorial_examples in release1_branch
470    o correct a sign problem in cost_scat.F
471    o obcs and ptracers: fix boundary conditions for advections schemes
472      with larger stencil
473    o thsice adjoint: start
474    o mom_vecinv: add ISOTROPIC_COS_SCALING flags to mom_vi_hdissip for
475      completeness
476    o mom_fluxform: fixing the mutual use of ISOTROPIC_COS_SCALING
477      and COSINEMETH_III, add comments in default CPP_OPTIONS.h
478    o ptracers adjoint:
479      * avoid extensive recomputatations
480      * fix missing re-init. of gptr (missed by TAF)
481    o obcs: add a flag (OBCSprintDiags, defaults is true) that allows
482      me to turn off the excessive output to STDOUT that this package produces
483    o move NH metric terms & 3.D Coriolis S/R to pkg/mom_common
484      and add those terms in Vector-Invariant formulation.
485    o in ctrl pkg, if ALLOW_CAL, use monthly mean controls
486      if the control period (xx_hfluxperiod etc) is 0
487    o in profiles pkg, clean routines and fix details
488    o in ecco pkg, reading ssh data:
489      fix problem in case the model does not start at iter0=0
490    o fix mnc-pickup/restart for ptracers
491    o new package prifiles:
492      code to compute profile-based cost by Gael Forget
493      (modifs in ecco, ctrl, autodiff)
494    o Benign bug fix in initialization (spotted by M. Mazloff) of
495      ctrl_set_globfld_xz.F ctrl_set_globfld_yz.F
496    
497    checkpoint58c_post
498    o adjoint: finish NLFS adjoint and provide reference output in
499      verification/global_ocean.90x40x15/results_ad_nlfs
500    o seaice: add an EVP solver following Hunke and Dukowicz (1997) and the
501      documentation of CICE. Turn on by defining SEAICE_ALLOW_EVP in
502      SEAICE_OPTIONS.h and SEAICEuseEVP=.true. in data.seaice. Works only
503      with SEAICE_CGRID defined.
504    o move calendarDumps from "data" to "data.cal" and clean-up the code
505      with a simple call to pkg/cal S/R: CAL_TIME2WRITE
506    o add useEXF & useCAL flags (for now, set in hard-coded way)
507    o add S/R to compute NH-metrics terms & Coriolis f' in vertical momentum
508      (were missing in NH mode, and wrong in quasihydrostatic mode).
509      waiting for Chris updated version of calc_gw to add those CALLs.
510    o fix bug in quasihydrostatic S/R ;
511      add a test for this option: global_ocean.90x40x15.qshyd
512    o new S/R "SET_PARMS": set parameters that might depend on the use of some pkgs.
513      (called from INITIALISE_FIXED, after INI_PARMS & PACKAGES_READPARAMS)
514    o add on/off flag useOffLine for package OFFLINE
515    o seaice:
516      - modify advection so that it works also on the C-grid
517      - extend loop ranges in seaice_lsr and seaice_dynsolver; fixes
518        problem in multi-tile runs with C-grid
519      - add flags for clipping ice velocities and/or masking solver forcing
520      - fix drag (ocean on ice) formulation and a bug that caused noise in the
521        C-grid solver
522      - added a few comments to seaice_diffusion.F
523      - separate C-grid and B-grid versions more cleanly (UVM and seaiceMaskU/V
524        are now exclusive)
525      - add a new ocean-ice stress coupling method (Hibler and Bryan, 1987) which
526        required re-ordering the code a little:
527       + make DAIRN global variable (defined in SEAICE)
528       + move computation of the viscosities eta and zeta into a new separate
529         routine (because I need to recompute them in seaice_ocean_stress.F)
530    
531    checkpoint58b_post
532    o AIM+thSIce: fix sign of Short-Wave through the Ice ;
533      update output.txt of exp. aim.5l_cs.thSI
534    o various mnc cleanups and improvements:
535      + shrink lookup tables by factor of ~4
536      + better error reporting when running out of lookup space
537      + able to handle longer path/file names (up to 500 chars)
538    o adjoint:
539      - Another overhaul of store dirs. for NLFS to eliminate  "hidden" recomputations.
540      - TBD: "hidden" mom_vecinv recomp. in dynamics
541    o change forcing_In_AB to affects both T,S forcing and Momentum forcing
542     (allow to differentiate between forcing components using new integer flags:
543      momForcingOutAB=1/0 & tracForcingOutAB=1/0)
544     and add new flag to put Dissipation tendency out of Adams-Bashforth.
545    o ecco
546      - enable trend removal from SSH anomaly obs.
547    o adjoint
548      - a fix for PmEpR when #undef EXACT_CONSERV
549      - fix of "hidden" recomp. in thermodynamics (no TAF warnings)
550      - try to fix "hidden" recomp. in forward_step for NLFS
551        (NLFS seems broken sometimes after I checked it in)
552    o seaice:
553     - add c-grid version of the dynamic solver:
554       + three new routines that are the c-grid substitute lsr, dynsolver
555         and ostres
556       + put a few fields that were local to dynsolver into global common
557         blocks, so that I can move the computation of stresses etc into
558         seaice_lsr (saves coding but may break the adjoint).
559     - replace more hardwired parameters by runtime parameters
560     - add ice masks that mask the rhs of the implicit solvers where there
561       is no ice (commented out in seaice_dynsolver, because i am not sure
562       if this works properly), eventually this should replace the clipping
563       of ice velocities in seaice_dynsolver to +/-40cm/s.
564    o remove the BUILD_INFO.h include from CPP_EEOPTIONS.h and explicitly
565      include it only where its needed
566    o move balancing of fluxes before the call of external_forcing_surf
567    o seaice:
568      - correct units of turning angles (now they are really in degrees)
569      - move computation of GWATX/Y out of main routine into dynsolver
570      - initialize GWATX/Y in seaice_init
571    o Apply mask on Fresh-Water flux (needed for SSH forcing).
572      update output.txt of exp. global_ocean_ebm & cpl_aim+ocn (affects cg2d residual)
573    o seaice: add runtime flags for turning angles (default to zero)
574    o Adding runtime parameter to exf/, ctrl/, to remove on-the-fly global mean
575      and trend from exf forcing and ctrl control adjustments
576    o fix variable aliasing in gad_calc_rhs that cannot be handled by TAF
577      (since checkpoint57x_post)
578    o change the default rotation period to 86164.s = the Earth rotation
579    o 1rst implementation of Implicit IGW using the 3-D solver (use3Dsolver=T)
580      and based on a reference stratification. Tested within hs94.cs-32x32x5.
581    o seaice advection: add code for choosing between the default (2nd order
582      central differences) and multiDim advection schemes provided by
583      pkg/generic_advdiff
584    o seaice:
585      - removed all references to SEAICE_GRID.h fields from
586        dynsolver, advect, diffus, lsr, without changing the results of lab_sea
587        (cubed-sphere configuration will change a little)
588      - grid computations in seaice_init are obsolete now.
589      - cleaned up code a little so that is easier to read (hopefully).
590      - added new (better?) discretizations of default advection and diffusion
591        (turn on with SEAICEuseFluxForm)
592      - replace 1 in 3d global fields by kSurface in growth.F
593      
594    checkpoint58a_post
595    o seaice:
596      - bug fix in advect.F
597    o shelfice:
598      - separate shelfice load anomaly from pload (breaks with time
599        dependent forcing), => introduce constant field shelficeLoadAnomaly.
600        Its default is 0., but it may be computed more cleverly from (unknown)
601        t- and s-profiles (tRef, sRef) and actual EOS. For now this has to be
602        done offline. A good approximation of the pressure load anomaly is
603        necessary to avoid large initial adjustment processes underneath
604        deep-reaching shelfice.
605      - small fix in ISOMIP shelfice_thermodynamics
606      - add more sophisticated thermodynamics of Hellmer (1989), this is
607        now the default
608      - give a few constants more intuitive names
609    o add code to balance EmPmP and Qnet at the end of do_ocean_physics. Useful
610      if bulk formulae are used in long integration (especially EmPmR). Turn
611      on with balanceEmPmR = .true. or balanceQnet = .true. in data, PARM01
612      if balancePrintMean, the imbalance that is substracted is printed to
613      STDOUT.
614    o fix bug (typo) in obcs_apply_eta.F
615    o add a new package shelfice which enables us to model the circulation
616      underneath shelf-ice with draughts of hundreds of meters.
617     - works
618     - to do: + include improved thermodynamics
619              + check whether kSurfC (from model/inc/SURFACE.h) can be used
620                instead of new field kTopC
621              + can we use topoFile, Ro_surf and existing code in ini_depth.F
622                instead of new field R_shelfIce and new code in ini_depth.F
623                and ini_mask_etc.F?
624              + adjust vertical mixing schemes?
625    o seaice pkg:
626     - add a cpp-flag to include a simple formula for a salinity dependent
627       freezing point of sea water at the surface
628     - change the contents of SEAICE_TEST_ICE_STRESS_1 so that zonal and
629       meridional stresses are now different (and hopefully correct)
630    o AIM pkg: change threshold on large-scale condensation to conserve Heat.
631       update results of aim.5l_LatLon test ; fix title & units of AIM diagnostics
632       and  change 3 diagnostics names (OSR,OSRCLR,KM -> TSR,TSRCLR,DRAG)
633    o pkg/diagnostics: add options and parameters for regional-statistics
634       diagnostics ; define regions by reading a region-mask from a file
635       (might add other options later)
636    o pkg/bulk_force:
637     - add option and parameters to use AIM surface-flux formulae.
638     - Change loading part: S/R BULKF_FIELDS_LOAD only take care of bulkf_fields ;
639       others forcing fields (defined in PARM05, parameter file "data") are loaded
640       from S/R EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD, as usually (with useBulkforce = T or F).
641     - initialise all bulkf_fields in bulkf_init.F ; do in-lining of exf_bulkcdn.F
642     - use the right EXCH call for uwind,vwind (to work on CS-grid).
643     - re-arrange header files (move parameters from BULKF.h to BULKF_PARAMS.h)
644       and parameters (note: calcWindStress replaces .NOT.readwindstress).
645     - cleaner interface with pkg/thSIce (new S/R THSICE_GET_PRECIP).
646    
647    checkpoint58
648    o add "--embed-source" option to genmake2 which, when the supporting
649      tools can be compiled (as determined by genmake2) will turn on the
650      embed_files package which then embeds the entire MITgcm source code
651      (*.[fFhc] + Makefile) used for the build within the executable
652      - requested by CNH but off by default
653      - adds a paltry <9MB to the mitgcmuv executable in most cases
654      - only writes the output when useEMBEDSRC in eedata is true
655    o clean up 3-dim. relaxation codes:
656      * Fix I/O inconsistency in pkg/rbcs: replace precFloat32 by readBinaryPrec
657      * Remove 3-dim. relaxation code from pkg/exf (now use only pkg/rbcs)
658      * Thanks to Tom Haine for testing!
659    
660    checkpoint57z_post
661    o make CG3D solver compatible with Free-surface at k > 1 (p-coordinate):
662      affects output (@ truncation level) of exp. plume_on_slope ; updated.
663    o fix the pickup behavior for obcs in combination with ptracers
664    o fix a bug in ptracers_external_fields_load
665    o no AB-2 at the first iteration for Gw (consistent with Gu,Gv,Gt,Gs ...)
666      affects results of NH experiments (but all our NH tests have Gw[it=1]==0 !!)
667    o transfered surface NH pressure to eta field (if exactConserv).
668    o gmredi: fix bugs in slope tapering ldd97 (depthZ had the wrong sign)
669         and update lab_sea output.txt file.
670    o completing 3-dim. relaxation code: additional term
671         1/tau*( theta(i,j,k) - thetaStar(i,j,k) )
672      in S/R EXTERNAL_FORCING_T (file external_forcing.F)
673      * At compile time, in "EXF_OPTIONS.h" set
674          #define  ALLOW_CLIMTEMP_RELAXATION
675          #define  ALLOW_CLIMSALT_RELAXATION
676      * At runtime in "data", under &PARM03 set (e.g., units in seconds)
677          tauThetaClimRelax3Dim = 15552000.0,
678          tauSaltClimRelax3Dim  = 15552000.0,
679      * 3 cases:
680          1) Use a constant-in-time 3-dim. field
681          2) Provide 12 3-dim. fields corresponding to Jan., ... , Dec.
682          3) Real-time relax. to time-evolving prescribed field
683    o Adding Laplacian-type smoothness constraint on
684      initial and boundary (forcing) controls (ic, bc)
685      * enable at compile-time via
686        ALLOW_SMOOTH_IC_COST_CONTRIBUTION, ALLOW_SMOOTH_BC_COST_CONTRIBUTION
687      * enable at run-time via mult_smooth_ic = 1, mult_smooth_bc = 1
688      * Absolute scale somewhat unclear so far
689      * no area weighting was included since no other cost term does so far
690    
691    checkpoint57y_post
692    First step for a NLFS adjoint
693    o initially suppress rStar (new flag DISABLE_RSTAR_CODE)
694    o new init. routines for calc_r_star, calc_surf_dr
695    o still need to deal with ini_masks_etc
696    o testreport seemed happy
697    checkpoint57y_pre
698    
699    o obcs: always reset wVel & eta (to zero or prescribe it) at the OBs.
700    o add new package rbcs (for relaxing ptracers at boundaries/depth/surface etc)
701    o add new offset feature to offline pkg (plus minor cleanup)
702    o cfc fixes for final year of integration
703    o clean up GCHEM_OPTIONS.h/DIC_OPTIONS.h (all options should
704      be in GCHEM_OPTIONS).
705    
706    checkpoint57x_post
707    o fix testreport Pb in multiple test experiment.
708    o cleanup our namelist syntax in verification:
709      - make it more F95 standards compliant (some work still needed)
710      - allows the vast majority of our tests to work with gfortran
711    o Non-Hydrostatic:
712     - put all NH variables (formerly in DYNVARS.h & GW.h) in NH_VARS.h
713     - fix exchange calls for CS-grid using the new EXCH_S3D_RL.
714    o Allow to apply AB on T,S rather than on AB(gT,gS):
715     - implemented within #ifdef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3
716     - use the same arrays (gtNm,gsNm) to hold tracer field at previous
717       time-steps (if AB(T,S)) and tendencies (if AB(gT,gS)).
718     - need a "clever" read_pickup to restart from the other AB formulation
719    o move local commom bloc /GlobalLo/ (used for singleCpuIO) in EESUPPORT.h
720    o remove some unused variables (reduces number of compiler warnings)
721    o adjoint
722      * Disable useVariableViscosity for adjoint for time being
723        (there are a number of extensive recomputations)
724      * Initialize certain variables needed for adjoint
725    
726    checkpoint57w_post
727    o pkg/mdsio: use MAX_LEN_FNAM (instead of hard coded 80) for file-names
728                 fix the singleCpuIO RS version of MDSWRITEFIELD
729       and add a WARNING if using globalFiles=T with multi-processors.
730    o write grid-file(s) in only one format (MDS or MNC): default=MNC (if
731      using MNC); can force MDS output by setting writegrid_mnc=F in data.mnc
732    o tracer advection scheme:
733      add DST-2 (=Lax-Wendroff) & 1rst order upwind schemes (the way to get
734       those 2 schemes before, changing GAD_FLUX_LIMITER.h + to recompile,
735       was not very convenient).
736      add implicit version for DST-3 & DST3_Flux_Limit vertical advection;  
737       (further tests needed for the implicit DST & Flux-Limiter schemes).
738    o PTRACERS: added namelist parameter PTRACERS_ref in analogy to tRef
739      and sRef for convenience, handy, when you want to initialize
740      ptracers in a large domain with a constant non-zero value. Also,
741      untangle ptracers_init.F a little.
742    
743    checkpoint57v_post
744    o change dome exp. to use variable viscosity in side-drag terms.
745    o remove all the files from the cfc_offline test since they are now
746      incorporated into tutorial_cfc_offline which has been producing
747      identical results for a few days of testing
748    o add new parameter: sideDragFactor to enable half-slip-side BC
749      and change side-drag S/R to use viscosity from mom_calc_visc
750      (can switch back by setting sideDragFactor=0.); affects results at
751      truncation level; regenerate output for exp.: global_ocean.cs32x10(x3),
752       global_ocean_ebm, global_ocean_pressure, matrix_example & MLAdjust(x5).
753    o vorticity & strain are now computed without masking, to account for
754      no-slip-side BC in variable viscosity calculation ; mask is applied
755      anyway later on, before computing advection/coriolis terms.
756    o modify exp4 to test new obcs support for reading from external files
757      and for passive tracers
758    o fix behavior of ptracers_monitor when monitor output is written to a
759      netcdf-file; still not independent of monitor.F (writes in the same
760      file).
761    o change default value of tRef (put a uniform, meaningful value for ocean
762      & atmos) and initialize sRef (was missing, as Martin mentioned).
763    o Redefine viscC?Leith*.  Change the coefficients of Leith viscosity
764      to be proportional to enstrophy dissipation length.  Thus,
765       viscC?leith?_new=pi*(viscC?leith?_old)^(1/3)
766      This is now consistent with Smagorinsky and with the manual.
767    
768    checkpoint57u_post
769    o OBCS and PTRACERS: add open boundary support for passive tracers
770      - either use homogenous (pseudo) v.Neumann conditions or prescribe
771        OB-values from file; this is not different from the way theta and salinity
772        are treated
773      - however, Orlanski-radiation conditions are not supported, and the model
774        will stop if you use pTracers and Orlanski at the same time.
775      - beefed up the rountine obcs_external_fields_load: now only those open
776        boundary values are overwritten with values from files for which there
777        are really files, otherwise the OB-fields remain untouched. This makes
778        it possible to use different OBs at different ends of the domain (as
779        with EXF)
780    o reduce number of exch calls in shap_filt (s2).
781    o CS-grid: fix divergence contribution to Leith viscosity. Affects (@
782      truncation level) 4/5 MLAdjust test results (11&12 digits match).
783    
784    checkpoint57t_post
785    o test biharmonic viscosity + no-slip with exp: global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
786    o finish adding brackets (coriolis S/R, vecinv) in multi-terms sum to get
787      same truncation, independent of the face number: affects affects several
788      test. exp.: Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
789    o fix bug in mom_v_sidedrag (biharmonic viscosity was counted 2 times);
790      note that biharmonic viscosity + no-slip was not tested in any experiment.
791    o fix bug in non-linear free-surf side-drag ; generate new output for
792      global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & global_ocean_pressure.
793    o make mnc honor the writeBinaryPrec flag for most kinds of output
794    o eesupp: split EEPARAMS into EESIZE/EEPARAMS and add a vector global sum
795    o minor change in averaging W (mom_vi_?_vertshear.F) that affects truncation
796      error; update output from global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
797    o add brackets in multi-terms sum to get same truncation, independent of
798      the face number (manage to get exactly same value of gU,gV at the cs-edge)
799      affects several test. exp. Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice).
800    o Clean, new version of mom_calc_visc.  Adds a new feature, viscAhRemax
801      and viscA4Remax, which allow one to limit the minimum viscosity by specifying
802      a maximum grid-scale Reynolds number.  Also, changes all length calculations
803      in the case of grid anisotropy to geometric mean of dx**2 and dy**2.
804      Suggested values of viscosity parameters found in mom_calc_visc.
805      Many new viscosity diagnostics available.
806    
807    checkpoint57s_post
808    o Add clearing-house for viscosity calculations, mom_calc_visc and
809      correct numerous bugs in LeithD and Smagorinsky discretizations.  
810      mom_calc_visc now allows for Smagorinsky, Leith and LeithD to be
811      used simultaneously, and to be used in mom_vecinv and mom_fluxform.
812      Mom_vecinv can be used with standard viscous calculation (mom_vi_hdissip.F)
813      and with Strain-Tension viscous term calculation (mom_hdissip.F).  
814      The Strain-Tension form is now called with useStrainTensonVisc=.true.
815      ViscAhStrain and viscAhTension are now retired.
816    o diagnostics "VISCAHD" & "VISCA4D" replace "VISCAH" & "VISCA4".
817    o In response to JMC's bug report, genmake2 now ignores any soft-links
818      that it finds in the *current* directory when searching for files.
819      Soft-links found in any other source directories will still work as
820      they did before.
821    o add HAVE_SETRLSTK define and useSETRLSTK flag (eedata) which calls
822      a C routine to unlimit the stack size
823    o mnc-ify pkg/aim snapshot vars
824    o mnc-ify pkg/land as requested by Daniel
825    o various changes to mnc including:
826      - all files use the new "BASENAME[[.ITER].{t|f}NUM].nc" format
827      - output can now be grouped so that all files within a group
828          change the ITER portion of their names in lock-step together
829      - can now read ("global") PER-FACE (in addition to PER-TILE) files
830          and works with both EXCH1 and EXCH2 (but needs more testing)
831      - writing works for all verification test cases w/ g77 on Linux
832    
833    checkpoint57r_post
834    o make MNC variable initialization happen earlier
835    o add diagnostics for (almost) each term of the momentum Eq.
836    o remove SST,SSS,UVEL_k2,VVEL_k2 diagnostics.
837    o move pkg timeave out of pkg-groups "oceanic" & "atmospheric" (pkg/pkg_groups)
838    o remove MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT option ;
839      add "dumpInitAndLast" to replace "nodumps" (and MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT).
840    o move some basic S/R (used elsewhere in the code) from pkg/mdsio to eesupp/src
841      allows to compile without pkg/mdsio (& test successfully hs94.1x64x5)
842    o add MNC output for adjoint of EXF (adexf), SEAICE (adseaice)
843    o add time-dependent SST, SSS control
844    o cost terms in ecco/ modularized (new cost_generic.F)
845    o cost_averages routines are modularized (new cost_averagesgeneric.F)
846    o new infrastructure for seaice model vs. obs misfits in seaice/
847      * driver from the_main_loop.F is seaice_cost_driver.F
848      * first term is AREA vs. SMR observation misfit (ALLOW_SEAICE_COST_SMR_AREA)
849      * gradient check in Exp. 6a of natl_box_adjoint/
850    o natl_box_adjoint input_seaice for Lab. Sea now available online via wget
851      (see README file)
852    
853    checkpoint57q_post
854    o fix initialisation Pb in calc_gw (get NANs in exp5 with g77)
855    o fix annoying months-old bug in mnc/mdsio output for seaice pkg
856      - bug was reported by Jean-Michel and Ian Fenty
857    o fix initialization Pb in AIM-Ocean coupled model (aim_sice2aim.F)
858      update exp. cpl_aim+ocn output.
859    o Implement 4-level checkpointing: AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
860      Needed for high-res. runs with large global files
861      to be able to limit tapelev size
862    o Changed some tests for adjoint:
863      * carbon/ now tests AUTODIFF_2_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
864      * natl_box_adjoint/code_bulk/ tests AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
865      * global_ocean.90x40x15/ back to default 3-level checkpointing
866    o Modifications to enable scripted COMMON to MODULE conversion
867      * verification/OpenAD/code/ has necessary scripts and description;
868      * converts, compiles and runs successfully;
869    
870    checkpoint57p_post
871    o reading of delXfile & delYfile moved from ini_parms.F to ini_grid.F
872    o move ${PKG}_MNC_INIT from ${PKG}_READ_PARAMS to ${PKG}_INIT_FIXED
873      (already the case for some pkgs, including recent MNC_init, e.g. thsice)
874    o call CALC_GW from DYNAMICS (instead of from FORWARD_STEP)
875    o Dissipation & phiHyd gradient are always added to gU,gV in timestep.F
876      (was already the case for dissipation with mom_vecinv,
877       and also the case for grad.PhiHyd when staggered-timeStep)
878      This will allow to put dissipation out-off the AB time-stepping.
879     Unfortunately, affects truncation error. Update output of exp. that "fails"
880      (cg2d matching number) and leave the others for later: front_relax(10),
881      global_ocean_pressure(10),ideal_2D_oce(10),internal_wave(9),lab_sea(12),
882      matrix_example(7!),natl_box(12),plume_on_slope(11),vermix(12x3,11x2).
883    
884    checkpoint57o_post
885    o fix MNC/MDSIO flags in PTRACERS so that (1) it works, and
886      (2) its ready to be documented during the 20050801 DocFest
887    o MNC-ify the gmredi package -- tested and works w/ and w/o mnc
888      for ideal_2D_oce and lab_sea on linux_ia32_g77
889    o set to #undef CTRL_SET_OLD_MAXCVARS_30
890      in global1x1_tot/code_seaice_adj to access indices 32, 33
891      (worth another tag)
892    
893    checkpoint57n_post
894    o adding precip control xx_precip 32
895    o adding swflux control xx_swflux 33
896    o Replacing 10 forcing penalty cost routines by 1 generic.
897    o Implementing partitioning in time-mean and variable adjustment
898      for atmos. state.
899    o Time-mean constant error is now read in data.ecco (instead of hard-coded)
900  o in natl_box_adjoint:  o in natl_box_adjoint:
901    * updated: results_bulk/    * updated exp 1 to 10
902    * not yet updated: results/, results_seaice/      (but does not have time-mean vs. variable split results yet)
903    o updated global1x1/*_seaice_adj/
904      to incorporate latest changes
905    o enable useSingleCpuIO for mdsio vector routines
906      (applies in particular to tapelev I/O)
907    o removed inefficient K-loop in all active_file*control*.F
908    
909  checkpoint57m_post  checkpoint57m_post
910  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)
