5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o 1rst implementation of Implicit IGW using the 3-D solver (use3Dsolver=T)
8      and based on a reference stratification. Tested within hs94.cs-32x32x5.
9    o seaice advection: add code for choosing between the default (2nd order
10      central differences) and multiDim advection schemes provided by
11      pkg/generic_advdiff
12    o seaice:
13      - removed all references to SEAICE_GRID.h fields from
14        dynsolver, advect, diffus, lsr, without changing the results of lab_sea
15        (cubed-sphere configuration will change a little)
16      - grid computations in seaice_init are obsolete now.
17      - cleaned up code a little so that is easier to read (hopefully).
18      - added new (better?) discretizations of default advection and diffusion
19        (turn on with SEAICEuseFluxForm)
20      - replace 1 in 3d global fields by kSurface in growth.F
21      
22    checkpoint58a_post
23    o seaice:
24      - bug fix in advect.F
25    o shelfice:
26      - separate shelfice load anomaly from pload (breaks with time
27        dependent forcing), => introduce constant field shelficeLoadAnomaly.
28        Its default is 0., but it may be computed more cleverly from (unknown)
29        t- and s-profiles (tRef, sRef) and actual EOS. For now this has to be
30        done offline. A good approximation of the pressure load anomaly is
31        necessary to avoid large initial adjustment processes underneath
32        deep-reaching shelfice.
33      - small fix in ISOMIP shelfice_thermodynamics
34      - add more sophisticated thermodynamics of Hellmer (1989), this is
35        now the default
36      - give a few constants more intuitive names
37    o add code to balance EmPmP and Qnet at the end of do_ocean_physics. Useful
38      if bulk formulae are used in long integration (especially EmPmR). Turn
39      on with balanceEmPmR = .true. or balanceQnet = .true. in data, PARM01
40      if balancePrintMean, the imbalance that is substracted is printed to
41      STDOUT.
42    o fix bug (typo) in obcs_apply_eta.F
43    o add a new package shelfice which enables us to model the circulation
44      underneath shelf-ice with draughts of hundreds of meters.
45     - works
46     - to do: + include improved thermodynamics
47              + check whether kSurfC (from model/inc/SURFACE.h) can be used
48                instead of new field kTopC
49              + can we use topoFile, Ro_surf and existing code in ini_depth.F
50                instead of new field R_shelfIce and new code in ini_depth.F
51                and ini_mask_etc.F?
52              + adjust vertical mixing schemes?
53    o seaice pkg:
54     - add a cpp-flag to include a simple formula for a salinity dependent
55       freezing point of sea water at the surface
56     - change the contents of SEAICE_TEST_ICE_STRESS_1 so that zonal and
57       meridional stresses are now different (and hopefully correct)
58    o AIM pkg: change threshold on large-scale condensation to conserve Heat.
59       update results of aim.5l_LatLon test ; fix title & units of AIM diagnostics
60       and  change 3 diagnostics names (OSR,OSRCLR,KM -> TSR,TSRCLR,DRAG)
61    o pkg/diagnostics: add options and parameters for regional-statistics
62       diagnostics ; define regions by reading a region-mask from a file
63       (might add other options later)
64    o pkg/bulk_force:
65     - add option and parameters to use AIM surface-flux formulae.
66     - Change loading part: S/R BULKF_FIELDS_LOAD only take care of bulkf_fields ;
67       others forcing fields (defined in PARM05, parameter file "data") are loaded
68       from S/R EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD, as usually (with useBulkforce = T or F).
69     - initialise all bulkf_fields in bulkf_init.F ; do in-lining of exf_bulkcdn.F
70     - use the right EXCH call for uwind,vwind (to work on CS-grid).
71     - re-arrange header files (move parameters from BULKF.h to BULKF_PARAMS.h)
72       and parameters (note: calcWindStress replaces .NOT.readwindstress).
73     - cleaner interface with pkg/thSIce (new S/R THSICE_GET_PRECIP).
74    
75    checkpoint58
76    o add "--embed-source" option to genmake2 which, when the supporting
77      tools can be compiled (as determined by genmake2) will turn on the
78      embed_files package which then embeds the entire MITgcm source code
79      (*.[fFhc] + Makefile) used for the build within the executable
80      - requested by CNH but off by default
81      - adds a paltry <9MB to the mitgcmuv executable in most cases
82      - only writes the output when useEMBEDSRC in eedata is true
83    o clean up 3-dim. relaxation codes:
84      * Fix I/O inconsistency in pkg/rbcs: replace precFloat32 by readBinaryPrec
85      * Remove 3-dim. relaxation code from pkg/exf (now use only pkg/rbcs)
86      * Thanks to Tom Haine for testing!
87    
88    checkpoint57z_post
89    o make CG3D solver compatible with Free-surface at k > 1 (p-coordinate):
90      affects output (@ truncation level) of exp. plume_on_slope ; updated.
91    o fix the pickup behavior for obcs in combination with ptracers
92    o fix a bug in ptracers_external_fields_load
93    o no AB-2 at the first iteration for Gw (consistent with Gu,Gv,Gt,Gs ...)
94      affects results of NH experiments (but all our NH tests have Gw[it=1]==0 !!)
95    o transfered surface NH pressure to eta field (if exactConserv).
96    o gmredi: fix bugs in slope tapering ldd97 (depthZ had the wrong sign)
97         and update lab_sea output.txt file.
98    o completing 3-dim. relaxation code: additional term
99         1/tau*( theta(i,j,k) - thetaStar(i,j,k) )
100      in S/R EXTERNAL_FORCING_T (file external_forcing.F)
101      * At compile time, in "EXF_OPTIONS.h" set
102          #define  ALLOW_CLIMTEMP_RELAXATION
103          #define  ALLOW_CLIMSALT_RELAXATION
104      * At runtime in "data", under &PARM03 set (e.g., units in seconds)
105          tauThetaClimRelax3Dim = 15552000.0,
106          tauSaltClimRelax3Dim  = 15552000.0,
107      * 3 cases:
108          1) Use a constant-in-time 3-dim. field
109          2) Provide 12 3-dim. fields corresponding to Jan., ... , Dec.
110          3) Real-time relax. to time-evolving prescribed field
111    o Adding Laplacian-type smoothness constraint on
112      initial and boundary (forcing) controls (ic, bc)
113      * enable at compile-time via
114        ALLOW_SMOOTH_IC_COST_CONTRIBUTION, ALLOW_SMOOTH_BC_COST_CONTRIBUTION
115      * enable at run-time via mult_smooth_ic = 1, mult_smooth_bc = 1
116      * Absolute scale somewhat unclear so far
117      * no area weighting was included since no other cost term does so far
118    
119    checkpoint57y_post
120    First step for a NLFS adjoint
121    o initially suppress rStar (new flag DISABLE_RSTAR_CODE)
122    o new init. routines for calc_r_star, calc_surf_dr
123    o still need to deal with ini_masks_etc
124    o testreport seemed happy
125    checkpoint57y_pre
126    
127    o obcs: always reset wVel & eta (to zero or prescribe it) at the OBs.
128    o add new package rbcs (for relaxing ptracers at boundaries/depth/surface etc)
129    o add new offset feature to offline pkg (plus minor cleanup)
130    o cfc fixes for final year of integration
131    o clean up GCHEM_OPTIONS.h/DIC_OPTIONS.h (all options should
132      be in GCHEM_OPTIONS).
133    
134    checkpoint57x_post
135    o fix testreport Pb in multiple test experiment.
136    o cleanup our namelist syntax in verification:
137      - make it more F95 standards compliant (some work still needed)
138      - allows the vast majority of our tests to work with gfortran
139    o Non-Hydrostatic:
140     - put all NH variables (formerly in DYNVARS.h & GW.h) in NH_VARS.h
141     - fix exchange calls for CS-grid using the new EXCH_S3D_RL.
142    o Allow to apply AB on T,S rather than on AB(gT,gS):
143     - implemented within #ifdef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3
144     - use the same arrays (gtNm,gsNm) to hold tracer field at previous
145       time-steps (if AB(T,S)) and tendencies (if AB(gT,gS)).
146     - need a "clever" read_pickup to restart from the other AB formulation
147    o move local commom bloc /GlobalLo/ (used for singleCpuIO) in EESUPPORT.h
148    o remove some unused variables (reduces number of compiler warnings)
149    o adjoint
150      * Disable useVariableViscosity for adjoint for time being
151        (there are a number of extensive recomputations)
152      * Initialize certain variables needed for adjoint
153    
154    checkpoint57w_post
155    o pkg/mdsio: use MAX_LEN_FNAM (instead of hard coded 80) for file-names
156                 fix the singleCpuIO RS version of MDSWRITEFIELD
157       and add a WARNING if using globalFiles=T with multi-processors.
158    o write grid-file(s) in only one format (MDS or MNC): default=MNC (if
159      using MNC); can force MDS output by setting writegrid_mnc=F in data.mnc
160    o tracer advection scheme:
161      add DST-2 (=Lax-Wendroff) & 1rst order upwind schemes (the way to get
162       those 2 schemes before, changing GAD_FLUX_LIMITER.h + to recompile,
163       was not very convenient).
164      add implicit version for DST-3 & DST3_Flux_Limit vertical advection;  
165       (further tests needed for the implicit DST & Flux-Limiter schemes).
166    o PTRACERS: added namelist parameter PTRACERS_ref in analogy to tRef
167      and sRef for convenience, handy, when you want to initialize
168      ptracers in a large domain with a constant non-zero value. Also,
169      untangle ptracers_init.F a little.
170    
171    checkpoint57v_post
172    o change dome exp. to use variable viscosity in side-drag terms.
173    o remove all the files from the cfc_offline test since they are now
174      incorporated into tutorial_cfc_offline which has been producing
175      identical results for a few days of testing
176    o add new parameter: sideDragFactor to enable half-slip-side BC
177      and change side-drag S/R to use viscosity from mom_calc_visc
178      (can switch back by setting sideDragFactor=0.); affects results at
179      truncation level; regenerate output for exp.: global_ocean.cs32x10(x3),
180       global_ocean_ebm, global_ocean_pressure, matrix_example & MLAdjust(x5).
181    o vorticity & strain are now computed without masking, to account for
182      no-slip-side BC in variable viscosity calculation ; mask is applied
183      anyway later on, before computing advection/coriolis terms.
184    o modify exp4 to test new obcs support for reading from external files
185      and for passive tracers
186    o fix behavior of ptracers_monitor when monitor output is written to a
187      netcdf-file; still not independent of monitor.F (writes in the same
188      file).
189    o change default value of tRef (put a uniform, meaningful value for ocean
190      & atmos) and initialize sRef (was missing, as Martin mentioned).
191    o Redefine viscC?Leith*.  Change the coefficients of Leith viscosity
192      to be proportional to enstrophy dissipation length.  Thus,
193       viscC?leith?_new=pi*(viscC?leith?_old)^(1/3)
194      This is now consistent with Smagorinsky and with the manual.
195    
196    checkpoint57u_post
197    o OBCS and PTRACERS: add open boundary support for passive tracers
198      - either use homogenous (pseudo) v.Neumann conditions or prescribe
199        OB-values from file; this is not different from the way theta and salinity
200        are treated
201      - however, Orlanski-radiation conditions are not supported, and the model
202        will stop if you use pTracers and Orlanski at the same time.
203      - beefed up the rountine obcs_external_fields_load: now only those open
204        boundary values are overwritten with values from files for which there
205        are really files, otherwise the OB-fields remain untouched. This makes
206        it possible to use different OBs at different ends of the domain (as
207        with EXF)
208    o reduce number of exch calls in shap_filt (s2).
209    o CS-grid: fix divergence contribution to Leith viscosity. Affects (@
210      truncation level) 4/5 MLAdjust test results (11&12 digits match).
211    
212    checkpoint57t_post
213    o test biharmonic viscosity + no-slip with exp: global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
214    o finish adding brackets (coriolis S/R, vecinv) in multi-terms sum to get
215      same truncation, independent of the face number: affects affects several
216      test. exp.: Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
217    o fix bug in mom_v_sidedrag (biharmonic viscosity was counted 2 times);
218      note that biharmonic viscosity + no-slip was not tested in any experiment.
219    o fix bug in non-linear free-surf side-drag ; generate new output for
220      global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & global_ocean_pressure.
221    o make mnc honor the writeBinaryPrec flag for most kinds of output
222    o eesupp: split EEPARAMS into EESIZE/EEPARAMS and add a vector global sum
223    o minor change in averaging W (mom_vi_?_vertshear.F) that affects truncation
224      error; update output from global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
225    o add brackets in multi-terms sum to get same truncation, independent of
226      the face number (manage to get exactly same value of gU,gV at the cs-edge)
227      affects several test. exp. Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice).
228    o Clean, new version of mom_calc_visc.  Adds a new feature, viscAhRemax
229      and viscA4Remax, which allow one to limit the minimum viscosity by specifying
230      a maximum grid-scale Reynolds number.  Also, changes all length calculations
231      in the case of grid anisotropy to geometric mean of dx**2 and dy**2.
232      Suggested values of viscosity parameters found in mom_calc_visc.
233      Many new viscosity diagnostics available.
234    
235    checkpoint57s_post
236    o Add clearing-house for viscosity calculations, mom_calc_visc and
237      correct numerous bugs in LeithD and Smagorinsky discretizations.  
238      mom_calc_visc now allows for Smagorinsky, Leith and LeithD to be
239      used simultaneously, and to be used in mom_vecinv and mom_fluxform.
240      Mom_vecinv can be used with standard viscous calculation (mom_vi_hdissip.F)
241      and with Strain-Tension viscous term calculation (mom_hdissip.F).  
242      The Strain-Tension form is now called with useStrainTensonVisc=.true.
243      ViscAhStrain and viscAhTension are now retired.
244    o diagnostics "VISCAHD" & "VISCA4D" replace "VISCAH" & "VISCA4".
245    o In response to JMC's bug report, genmake2 now ignores any soft-links
246      that it finds in the *current* directory when searching for files.
247      Soft-links found in any other source directories will still work as
248      they did before.
249    o add HAVE_SETRLSTK define and useSETRLSTK flag (eedata) which calls
250      a C routine to unlimit the stack size
251    o mnc-ify pkg/aim snapshot vars
252    o mnc-ify pkg/land as requested by Daniel
253    o various changes to mnc including:
254      - all files use the new "BASENAME[[.ITER].{t|f}NUM].nc" format
255      - output can now be grouped so that all files within a group
256          change the ITER portion of their names in lock-step together
257      - can now read ("global") PER-FACE (in addition to PER-TILE) files
258          and works with both EXCH1 and EXCH2 (but needs more testing)
259      - writing works for all verification test cases w/ g77 on Linux
260    
261    checkpoint57r_post
262    o make MNC variable initialization happen earlier
263    o add diagnostics for (almost) each term of the momentum Eq.
264    o remove SST,SSS,UVEL_k2,VVEL_k2 diagnostics.
265    o move pkg timeave out of pkg-groups "oceanic" & "atmospheric" (pkg/pkg_groups)
266    o remove MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT option ;
267      add "dumpInitAndLast" to replace "nodumps" (and MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT).
268    o move some basic S/R (used elsewhere in the code) from pkg/mdsio to eesupp/src
269      allows to compile without pkg/mdsio (& test successfully hs94.1x64x5)
270    o add MNC output for adjoint of EXF (adexf), SEAICE (adseaice)
271    o add time-dependent SST, SSS control
272    o cost terms in ecco/ modularized (new cost_generic.F)
273    o cost_averages routines are modularized (new cost_averagesgeneric.F)
274    o new infrastructure for seaice model vs. obs misfits in seaice/
275      * driver from the_main_loop.F is seaice_cost_driver.F
276      * first term is AREA vs. SMR observation misfit (ALLOW_SEAICE_COST_SMR_AREA)
277      * gradient check in Exp. 6a of natl_box_adjoint/
278    o natl_box_adjoint input_seaice for Lab. Sea now available online via wget
279      (see README file)
280    
281    checkpoint57q_post
282    o fix initialisation Pb in calc_gw (get NANs in exp5 with g77)
283    o fix annoying months-old bug in mnc/mdsio output for seaice pkg
284      - bug was reported by Jean-Michel and Ian Fenty
285    o fix initialization Pb in AIM-Ocean coupled model (aim_sice2aim.F)
286      update exp. cpl_aim+ocn output.
287    o Implement 4-level checkpointing: AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
288      Needed for high-res. runs with large global files
289      to be able to limit tapelev size
290    o Changed some tests for adjoint:
291      * carbon/ now tests AUTODIFF_2_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
292      * natl_box_adjoint/code_bulk/ tests AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
293      * global_ocean.90x40x15/ back to default 3-level checkpointing
294    o Modifications to enable scripted COMMON to MODULE conversion
295      * verification/OpenAD/code/ has necessary scripts and description;
296      * converts, compiles and runs successfully;
297    
298    checkpoint57p_post
299    o reading of delXfile & delYfile moved from ini_parms.F to ini_grid.F
300    o move ${PKG}_MNC_INIT from ${PKG}_READ_PARAMS to ${PKG}_INIT_FIXED
301      (already the case for some pkgs, including recent MNC_init, e.g. thsice)
302    o call CALC_GW from DYNAMICS (instead of from FORWARD_STEP)
303    o Dissipation & phiHyd gradient are always added to gU,gV in timestep.F
304      (was already the case for dissipation with mom_vecinv,
305       and also the case for grad.PhiHyd when staggered-timeStep)
306      This will allow to put dissipation out-off the AB time-stepping.
307     Unfortunately, affects truncation error. Update output of exp. that "fails"
308      (cg2d matching number) and leave the others for later: front_relax(10),
309      global_ocean_pressure(10),ideal_2D_oce(10),internal_wave(9),lab_sea(12),
310      matrix_example(7!),natl_box(12),plume_on_slope(11),vermix(12x3,11x2).
311    
312  checkpoint57o_post  checkpoint57o_post
313  o fix MNC/MDSIO flags in PTRACERS so that (1) it works, and  o fix MNC/MDSIO flags in PTRACERS so that (1) it works, and
314    (2) its ready to be documented during the 20050801 DocFest    (2) its ready to be documented during the 20050801 DocFest
