4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o profiles: now ok for mutli-threaded case
8    o seaice: add 4 parameters for different advection schemes for area,
9      (effective) seaice thickness, enthalphy, and snow height. Their default
10      is the standard parameter SEAICEadvScheme
11    o calc_gw:
12     - add cosFacU in zonal viscous flux (harmonic.visc.).
13     - put back side-drag (call new S/R MOM_W_SIDEDRAG) and output.txt.
14       of tutorial_plume_on_slope.
15    o obcs_calc.F : fix index Pb in OBSeta & OBNeta (Thanks to Gianmaria).
16    o calc_gw: true flux-form, account for horizontal grid spacing.
17      update rotating_tank results, but not plume_on_slope (affected at
18      truncation level, 11 digits).
19    
20    checkpoint58l_post
21    o calc_gw:
22     - take bi,bj loops outside calc_gw to fix Pb with local array KappaRU,V
23     - remove side-drag for now (need to fix it); update plume_on_slope results.
24     - fix for partial-cell & non-uniform dz; update plume_on_slope results.
25    o commit code to make SST/SSS weights spatially variable
26      (based on either variable in-situ or variable initial T/S weights)
27    o pkg/ecco:
28      * commit code to relax deviations of xx_theta, xx_salt to 5*sigma,
29        now based on horizontally varying weights wthetaLev, wsaltLev
30      * cost_averagesflags now returns year indices in addition to day, month
31      * sflux balance is performed on annual basis
32        (sflxumm, sfluxmm2, bal_sfluxmm)
33      * for SSH anomaly, separate more cleanly contrib from T/P, ERS, GFO,
34        including separate counting and multipliers
35    o pkg/rbcs
36      * add all necessary infrastructure for pkg/rbcs levN adjoint checkpointing
37    
38    checkpoint58k_post
39    o testreport:
40     - always build in dir. "build" (if not there, mkdir build instead of building
41       & running in input)
42     - run in dir run (if it exists), in build otherwise.
43     - call prepare_run (if input/prepare_run exists)
44     - run multi-threaded test (with new option: "-mth") if file input/eedata.mth exists.
45    o pkg/exf modifications to interpolation and rotation routines for more
46       reasonable treatment of North Pole singularity: for tracers North Pole
47       value is set to northernmost zonal-mean value, for zonal velocity it is
48       set to zero, and for meridional velocity it is set to northernmost value.
49    o pkg/exf/exf_check_range.F
50     - add tile index to diagnostics and move stop statement to the very
51       end of the routine.
52    o pkg/diagnostics: (diagnostics_main_init.F)
53      define title of isomorphic variables according to the current config.
54    o pkg/thsice with pkg/seaice dynamics:
55    - fix domain of computation (interior only, required for exf) and do exchanges
56    - seaice-dynamics forcing: add atmospheric and seaice loading to SSH gradient
57    o towards a standard way of dealing with multi-threading in MONITOR
58      and ${PKG}_MONITOR (all except ptracers_monitor) subroutines.
59    o Pass variable viscosities (vertical and horizontal, e.g., KPP or Leith)
60       to W momentum equation in nonhydrostatic and quasihydrostatic runs.  
61    o make exf_monitor & seaice_monitor independant of the main (dynamics) monitor.
62    o pkg/seaice: fix SEAICEuseEVPpickup parameter (put it in a commom block)
63    o generic_advdiff: DST advection S/R : use local copy of velocity to compute CFL
64       (problems ? with gradient check in bottom_ctrl_5x5 adjoint test)
65    o tracer advection:
66     - clean-up and simplify calc_common_factors.F
67     - make a local copy of velocity and pass it (as u,v,r_Trans) to DST tracer
68       advection subroutine (but still not used within DST advection S/R)
69    o rename pkg aim_ocn_coupler to atm_ocn_coupler (later on, will be used without aim)
70    
71    checkpoint58j_post
72    o new driver S/R: LOAD_FIELDS_DRIVER to load external forcing fields
73      from file (collects calls previously in FORWARD_STEP)
74    o move call to SEAICE_MODEL from FORWARD_STEP to DO_OCEANIC_PHYS
75    o adjoint store dir. adjusted accordingly
76    o genmake2
77      replace target "ad_taf" by $(EXE_AD) ; add $(EXE_AD) to the make CLEAN list.
78    
79    checkpoint58i_post
80    o pkg/seaice: add parameter that allows to scale/turn off effect of seaice
81      on wind stress (SEAICEstressFactor defaults to 1.)
82    o Total number of Timers is finite (<=40): comment out 2 non-essential one
83      in the_main_loop.F to avoid Pb (e.g., when running fizhi test)
84    o vector_invariant: fix highOrderVorticity(=4.th.Order) advection
85      on CS-grid: no longer loosing mass.
86    o exf & curvilinear-grid: no longer modify longitude xC & xG.
87    o pkg/ggl90: fix sloppy output and fix a bug
88    o pkg/seaice: added SEAICEuseEVPpickup parameter
89      - Set to false in order to start EVP solver with
90        non-EVP pickup files when using SEAICEuseEVP
91      - fix sign error in diffusion in seaice_calc_rhs
92    
93    checkpoint58h_post
94    * Modifications for bottom topography control
95      o replace hFacC by _hFacC at various places
96      o replace ALLOW_HFACC_CONTROL by ALLOW_DEPTH_CONTROL
97      o add non-self-adjoint cg2d_nsa
98      o update autodiff support routines
99      o re-initialise hfac after ctrl_depth_ini
100      o works for 5x5 box, doesnt work for global_ocean.90x40x15
101    * Adding verification for 5x5 box (4-layer) bottom topography control
102    
103    checkpoint58g_post
104    o pkg/diagnostics: implement "periodic averaging diagnostics" (e.g.,
105       used for mean seasonal cycle, mean diurnal cycle); add an example
106       in verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.thsice/data.diagnostics
107    o pkg/ggl90:
108      - add parameter (minimum surface kinetic energy)
109      - fix bug (avoiding division by zero)
110    o couple pkg/thsice to pkg/seaice:
111      - modify advection in seaice to accomodate new scalar fields to be advected
112      - only muliDimAdection scheme work with seaice/thsice
113      - mapping of thsice-variables to seaice-variables, back and forth
114      - does not break the verification experiments, but does not give the
115        desired results either
116    o pkg/seaice
117      - make (default) second order advection a bit less confusing?
118    
119    checkpoint58f_post
120    o couple pkg/thsice and pkg/exf (as a preparation for coupling pkg/thsice
121      to pkg/seaice):
122      - new routines thsice_map_exf and thsice_get_exf provide the interface
123      - add an additional formal parameter to thsice_solve4temp
124    o pkg/exf:
125      - add new fields wspeed, snowprecip (to be able to couple to thsice)
126      - correct Stefan-Boltzmann constant
127      - new parameter for longwave surface emittance
128      - separate some stuff from exf_bulkformulae into new routines  
129        exf_radiation, exf_wind
130      - add new parameters and constants: longwave emissivity for ocean, ice
131        and snow, evaporation parameters over ice
132      - decouple wind/stress computation from ALLOW_BULKFORMULA: always compute
133        either wind from stress or stress from wind
134    o pkg/thSIce:
135    - split thsice_step_fwd.F in 2 S/R: thsice_step_temp.F & thsice_step_fwd.F
136    - put i,j loops inside S/R: THSICE_ALBEDO, THSICE_SOLVE4TEMP, THSICE_EXTEND
137       and THSICE_CALC_THICKN
138    - for now, call to THSICE_GET_BULKF remains inside i,j loops.
139    - add CPP option: ALLOW_DBUG_THSICE and header file THSICE_DEBUG.h
140      to make debugging easier.
141    - affects results (@ truncation level) of global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice: update output
142    o pkg/bulk_force:
143      - clean-up comments and parameters ;
144      - add new Bulk-Formulae from Large and Yeager, 2004, NCAR/TN-460+STR ;
145    o fix bug in aim+thsice albedo: snow & ice thickness arguments were switched;
146      generate new output for test-experiment: aim.5l_cs.thSI
147    o results_ad : rename "output.txt_adm" to "output_adm.txt" and change
148      testreport accordingly
149    
150    checkpoint58e_post
151    o SEAICE_CGRID adjoint done
152    o R_STAR adjoint implemented.
153      * Seems to just work (based on global_ocean.90x40x15/code_ad_nlfs/ )
154      * need to sort out init. of h0facc, etc.
155    o Make pkg/profile fully independent of ecco,cost, etc. stuff
156      to be able to use it in pure forward.
157    
158    checkpoint58d_post
159    o upgrade simple test-experiment to tutorial example:
160     step.1: duplicate the experiment and (step.2) will remove the old copy.
161      tutorial_barotropic_gyre      <- copy of exp0     (R1:barotropic_gyre_in_a_box)
162      tutorial_baroclinic_gyre      <- copy of exp1     (R1:baroclinic_gyre_on_a_sphere)
163      tutorial_global_oce_latlon    <- empty for now    (R1:global_ocean_circulation)
164      tutorial_global_oce_biogeo    <- copy of dic_example
165      tutorial_deep_convection      <- almost like exp5 (R1:nonhydrostatic_deep_convection)
166      tutorial_plume_on_slope       <- copy of plume_on_slope
167      tutorial_tracer_adjsens       <- copy of carbon   (R1:tracer_adjoint_sensitivity)
168      tutorial_global_oce_optim     <- empty for now (David ?)
169      tutorial_global_oce_in_p      <- copy of global_ocean_pressure
170     some tutorials (R1) were already checked-in under tutorial_examples in release1_branch
171    o correct a sign problem in cost_scat.F
172    o obcs and ptracers: fix boundary conditions for advections schemes
173      with larger stencil
174    o thsice adjoint: start
175    o mom_vecinv: add ISOTROPIC_COS_SCALING flags to mom_vi_hdissip for
176      completeness
177    o mom_fluxform: fixing the mutual use of ISOTROPIC_COS_SCALING
178      and COSINEMETH_III, add comments in default CPP_OPTIONS.h
179    o ptracers adjoint:
180      * avoid extensive recomputatations
181      * fix missing re-init. of gptr (missed by TAF)
182    o obcs: add a flag (OBCSprintDiags, defaults is true) that allows
183      me to turn off the excessive output to STDOUT that this package produces
184    o move NH metric terms & 3.D Coriolis S/R to pkg/mom_common
185      and add those terms in Vector-Invariant formulation.
186    o in ctrl pkg, if ALLOW_CAL, use monthly mean controls
187      if the control period (xx_hfluxperiod etc) is 0
188    o in profiles pkg, clean routines and fix details
189    o in ecco pkg, reading ssh data:
190      fix problem in case the model does not start at iter0=0
191    o fix mnc-pickup/restart for ptracers
192    o new package prifiles:
193      code to compute profile-based cost by Gael Forget
194      (modifs in ecco, ctrl, autodiff)
195    o Benign bug fix in initialization (spotted by M. Mazloff) of
196      ctrl_set_globfld_xz.F ctrl_set_globfld_yz.F
197    
198    checkpoint58c_post
199    o adjoint: finish NLFS adjoint and provide reference output in
200      verification/global_ocean.90x40x15/results_ad_nlfs
201    o seaice: add an EVP solver following Hunke and Dukowicz (1997) and the
202      documentation of CICE. Turn on by defining SEAICE_ALLOW_EVP in
203      SEAICE_OPTIONS.h and SEAICEuseEVP=.true. in data.seaice. Works only
204      with SEAICE_CGRID defined.
205    o move calendarDumps from "data" to "data.cal" and clean-up the code
206      with a simple call to pkg/cal S/R: CAL_TIME2WRITE
207    o add useEXF & useCAL flags (for now, set in hard-coded way)
208    o add S/R to compute NH-metrics terms & Coriolis f' in vertical momentum
209      (were missing in NH mode, and wrong in quasihydrostatic mode).
210      waiting for Chris updated version of calc_gw to add those CALLs.
211    o fix bug in quasihydrostatic S/R ;
212      add a test for this option: global_ocean.90x40x15.qshyd
213    o new S/R "SET_PARMS": set parameters that might depend on the use of some pkgs.
214      (called from INITIALISE_FIXED, after INI_PARMS & PACKAGES_READPARAMS)
215    o add on/off flag useOffLine for package OFFLINE
216    o seaice:
217      - modify advection so that it works also on the C-grid
218      - extend loop ranges in seaice_lsr and seaice_dynsolver; fixes
219        problem in multi-tile runs with C-grid
220      - add flags for clipping ice velocities and/or masking solver forcing
221      - fix drag (ocean on ice) formulation and a bug that caused noise in the
222        C-grid solver
223      - added a few comments to seaice_diffusion.F
224      - separate C-grid and B-grid versions more cleanly (UVM and seaiceMaskU/V
225        are now exclusive)
226      - add a new ocean-ice stress coupling method (Hibler and Bryan, 1987) which
227        required re-ordering the code a little:
228       + make DAIRN global variable (defined in SEAICE)
229       + move computation of the viscosities eta and zeta into a new separate
230         routine (because I need to recompute them in seaice_ocean_stress.F)
231    
232    checkpoint58b_post
233    o AIM+thSIce: fix sign of Short-Wave through the Ice ;
234      update output.txt of exp. aim.5l_cs.thSI
235    o various mnc cleanups and improvements:
236      + shrink lookup tables by factor of ~4
237      + better error reporting when running out of lookup space
238      + able to handle longer path/file names (up to 500 chars)
239    o adjoint:
240      - Another overhaul of store dirs. for NLFS to eliminate  "hidden" recomputations.
241      - TBD: "hidden" mom_vecinv recomp. in dynamics
242    o change forcing_In_AB to affects both T,S forcing and Momentum forcing
243     (allow to differentiate between forcing components using new integer flags:
244      momForcingOutAB=1/0 & tracForcingOutAB=1/0)
245     and add new flag to put Dissipation tendency out of Adams-Bashforth.
246    o ecco
247      - enable trend removal from SSH anomaly obs.
248    o adjoint
249      - a fix for PmEpR when #undef EXACT_CONSERV
250      - fix of "hidden" recomp. in thermodynamics (no TAF warnings)
251      - try to fix "hidden" recomp. in forward_step for NLFS
252        (NLFS seems broken sometimes after I checked it in)
253    o seaice:
254     - add c-grid version of the dynamic solver:
255       + three new routines that are the c-grid substitute lsr, dynsolver
256         and ostres
257       + put a few fields that were local to dynsolver into global common
258         blocks, so that I can move the computation of stresses etc into
259         seaice_lsr (saves coding but may break the adjoint).
260     - replace more hardwired parameters by runtime parameters
261     - add ice masks that mask the rhs of the implicit solvers where there
262       is no ice (commented out in seaice_dynsolver, because i am not sure
263       if this works properly), eventually this should replace the clipping
264       of ice velocities in seaice_dynsolver to +/-40cm/s.
265    o remove the BUILD_INFO.h include from CPP_EEOPTIONS.h and explicitly
266      include it only where its needed
267    o move balancing of fluxes before the call of external_forcing_surf
268    o seaice:
269      - correct units of turning angles (now they are really in degrees)
270      - move computation of GWATX/Y out of main routine into dynsolver
271      - initialize GWATX/Y in seaice_init
272    o Apply mask on Fresh-Water flux (needed for SSH forcing).
273      update output.txt of exp. global_ocean_ebm & cpl_aim+ocn (affects cg2d residual)
274    o seaice: add runtime flags for turning angles (default to zero)
275    o Adding runtime parameter to exf/, ctrl/, to remove on-the-fly global mean
276      and trend from exf forcing and ctrl control adjustments
277    o fix variable aliasing in gad_calc_rhs that cannot be handled by TAF
278      (since checkpoint57x_post)
279    o change the default rotation period to 86164.s = the Earth rotation
280    o 1rst implementation of Implicit IGW using the 3-D solver (use3Dsolver=T)
281      and based on a reference stratification. Tested within hs94.cs-32x32x5.
282    o seaice advection: add code for choosing between the default (2nd order
283      central differences) and multiDim advection schemes provided by
284      pkg/generic_advdiff
285    o seaice:
286      - removed all references to SEAICE_GRID.h fields from
287        dynsolver, advect, diffus, lsr, without changing the results of lab_sea
288        (cubed-sphere configuration will change a little)
289      - grid computations in seaice_init are obsolete now.
290      - cleaned up code a little so that is easier to read (hopefully).
291      - added new (better?) discretizations of default advection and diffusion
292        (turn on with SEAICEuseFluxForm)
293      - replace 1 in 3d global fields by kSurface in growth.F
294      
295    checkpoint58a_post
296    o seaice:
297      - bug fix in advect.F
298    o shelfice:
299      - separate shelfice load anomaly from pload (breaks with time
300        dependent forcing), => introduce constant field shelficeLoadAnomaly.
301        Its default is 0., but it may be computed more cleverly from (unknown)
302        t- and s-profiles (tRef, sRef) and actual EOS. For now this has to be
303        done offline. A good approximation of the pressure load anomaly is
304        necessary to avoid large initial adjustment processes underneath
305        deep-reaching shelfice.
306      - small fix in ISOMIP shelfice_thermodynamics
307      - add more sophisticated thermodynamics of Hellmer (1989), this is
308        now the default
309      - give a few constants more intuitive names
310    o add code to balance EmPmP and Qnet at the end of do_ocean_physics. Useful
311      if bulk formulae are used in long integration (especially EmPmR). Turn
312      on with balanceEmPmR = .true. or balanceQnet = .true. in data, PARM01
313      if balancePrintMean, the imbalance that is substracted is printed to
314      STDOUT.
315    o fix bug (typo) in obcs_apply_eta.F
316    o add a new package shelfice which enables us to model the circulation
317      underneath shelf-ice with draughts of hundreds of meters.
318     - works
319     - to do: + include improved thermodynamics
320              + check whether kSurfC (from model/inc/SURFACE.h) can be used
321                instead of new field kTopC
322              + can we use topoFile, Ro_surf and existing code in ini_depth.F
323                instead of new field R_shelfIce and new code in ini_depth.F
324                and ini_mask_etc.F?
325              + adjust vertical mixing schemes?
326    o seaice pkg:
327     - add a cpp-flag to include a simple formula for a salinity dependent
328       freezing point of sea water at the surface
329     - change the contents of SEAICE_TEST_ICE_STRESS_1 so that zonal and
330       meridional stresses are now different (and hopefully correct)
331    o AIM pkg: change threshold on large-scale condensation to conserve Heat.
332       update results of aim.5l_LatLon test ; fix title & units of AIM diagnostics
333       and  change 3 diagnostics names (OSR,OSRCLR,KM -> TSR,TSRCLR,DRAG)
334    o pkg/diagnostics: add options and parameters for regional-statistics
335       diagnostics ; define regions by reading a region-mask from a file
336       (might add other options later)
337    o pkg/bulk_force:
338     - add option and parameters to use AIM surface-flux formulae.
339     - Change loading part: S/R BULKF_FIELDS_LOAD only take care of bulkf_fields ;
340       others forcing fields (defined in PARM05, parameter file "data") are loaded
341       from S/R EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD, as usually (with useBulkforce = T or F).
342     - initialise all bulkf_fields in bulkf_init.F ; do in-lining of exf_bulkcdn.F
343     - use the right EXCH call for uwind,vwind (to work on CS-grid).
344     - re-arrange header files (move parameters from BULKF.h to BULKF_PARAMS.h)
345       and parameters (note: calcWindStress replaces .NOT.readwindstress).
346     - cleaner interface with pkg/thSIce (new S/R THSICE_GET_PRECIP).
347    
348    checkpoint58
349    o add "--embed-source" option to genmake2 which, when the supporting
350      tools can be compiled (as determined by genmake2) will turn on the
351      embed_files package which then embeds the entire MITgcm source code
352      (*.[fFhc] + Makefile) used for the build within the executable
353      - requested by CNH but off by default
354      - adds a paltry <9MB to the mitgcmuv executable in most cases
355      - only writes the output when useEMBEDSRC in eedata is true
356    o clean up 3-dim. relaxation codes:
357      * Fix I/O inconsistency in pkg/rbcs: replace precFloat32 by readBinaryPrec
358      * Remove 3-dim. relaxation code from pkg/exf (now use only pkg/rbcs)
359      * Thanks to Tom Haine for testing!
360    
361    checkpoint57z_post
362    o make CG3D solver compatible with Free-surface at k > 1 (p-coordinate):
363      affects output (@ truncation level) of exp. plume_on_slope ; updated.
364    o fix the pickup behavior for obcs in combination with ptracers
365    o fix a bug in ptracers_external_fields_load
366    o no AB-2 at the first iteration for Gw (consistent with Gu,Gv,Gt,Gs ...)
367      affects results of NH experiments (but all our NH tests have Gw[it=1]==0 !!)
368    o transfered surface NH pressure to eta field (if exactConserv).
369    o gmredi: fix bugs in slope tapering ldd97 (depthZ had the wrong sign)
370         and update lab_sea output.txt file.
371    o completing 3-dim. relaxation code: additional term
372         1/tau*( theta(i,j,k) - thetaStar(i,j,k) )
373      in S/R EXTERNAL_FORCING_T (file external_forcing.F)
374      * At compile time, in "EXF_OPTIONS.h" set
375          #define  ALLOW_CLIMTEMP_RELAXATION
376          #define  ALLOW_CLIMSALT_RELAXATION
377      * At runtime in "data", under &PARM03 set (e.g., units in seconds)
378          tauThetaClimRelax3Dim = 15552000.0,
379          tauSaltClimRelax3Dim  = 15552000.0,
380      * 3 cases:
381          1) Use a constant-in-time 3-dim. field
382          2) Provide 12 3-dim. fields corresponding to Jan., ... , Dec.
383          3) Real-time relax. to time-evolving prescribed field
384    o Adding Laplacian-type smoothness constraint on
385      initial and boundary (forcing) controls (ic, bc)
386      * enable at compile-time via
387        ALLOW_SMOOTH_IC_COST_CONTRIBUTION, ALLOW_SMOOTH_BC_COST_CONTRIBUTION
388      * enable at run-time via mult_smooth_ic = 1, mult_smooth_bc = 1
389      * Absolute scale somewhat unclear so far
390      * no area weighting was included since no other cost term does so far
391    
392    checkpoint57y_post
393    First step for a NLFS adjoint
394    o initially suppress rStar (new flag DISABLE_RSTAR_CODE)
395    o new init. routines for calc_r_star, calc_surf_dr
396    o still need to deal with ini_masks_etc
397    o testreport seemed happy
398    checkpoint57y_pre
399    
400    o obcs: always reset wVel & eta (to zero or prescribe it) at the OBs.
401    o add new package rbcs (for relaxing ptracers at boundaries/depth/surface etc)
402    o add new offset feature to offline pkg (plus minor cleanup)
403    o cfc fixes for final year of integration
404    o clean up GCHEM_OPTIONS.h/DIC_OPTIONS.h (all options should
405      be in GCHEM_OPTIONS).
406    
407    checkpoint57x_post
408    o fix testreport Pb in multiple test experiment.
409    o cleanup our namelist syntax in verification:
410      - make it more F95 standards compliant (some work still needed)
411      - allows the vast majority of our tests to work with gfortran
412    o Non-Hydrostatic:
413     - put all NH variables (formerly in DYNVARS.h & GW.h) in NH_VARS.h
414     - fix exchange calls for CS-grid using the new EXCH_S3D_RL.
415    o Allow to apply AB on T,S rather than on AB(gT,gS):
416     - implemented within #ifdef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3
417     - use the same arrays (gtNm,gsNm) to hold tracer field at previous
418       time-steps (if AB(T,S)) and tendencies (if AB(gT,gS)).
419     - need a "clever" read_pickup to restart from the other AB formulation
420    o move local commom bloc /GlobalLo/ (used for singleCpuIO) in EESUPPORT.h
421    o remove some unused variables (reduces number of compiler warnings)
422    o adjoint
423      * Disable useVariableViscosity for adjoint for time being
424        (there are a number of extensive recomputations)
425      * Initialize certain variables needed for adjoint
426    
427    checkpoint57w_post
428    o pkg/mdsio: use MAX_LEN_FNAM (instead of hard coded 80) for file-names
429                 fix the singleCpuIO RS version of MDSWRITEFIELD
430       and add a WARNING if using globalFiles=T with multi-processors.
431    o write grid-file(s) in only one format (MDS or MNC): default=MNC (if
432      using MNC); can force MDS output by setting writegrid_mnc=F in data.mnc
433    o tracer advection scheme:
434      add DST-2 (=Lax-Wendroff) & 1rst order upwind schemes (the way to get
435       those 2 schemes before, changing GAD_FLUX_LIMITER.h + to recompile,
436       was not very convenient).
437      add implicit version for DST-3 & DST3_Flux_Limit vertical advection;  
438       (further tests needed for the implicit DST & Flux-Limiter schemes).
439    o PTRACERS: added namelist parameter PTRACERS_ref in analogy to tRef
440      and sRef for convenience, handy, when you want to initialize
441      ptracers in a large domain with a constant non-zero value. Also,
442      untangle ptracers_init.F a little.
443    
444    checkpoint57v_post
445    o change dome exp. to use variable viscosity in side-drag terms.
446    o remove all the files from the cfc_offline test since they are now
447      incorporated into tutorial_cfc_offline which has been producing
448      identical results for a few days of testing
449    o add new parameter: sideDragFactor to enable half-slip-side BC
450      and change side-drag S/R to use viscosity from mom_calc_visc
451      (can switch back by setting sideDragFactor=0.); affects results at
452      truncation level; regenerate output for exp.: global_ocean.cs32x10(x3),
453       global_ocean_ebm, global_ocean_pressure, matrix_example & MLAdjust(x5).
454    o vorticity & strain are now computed without masking, to account for
455      no-slip-side BC in variable viscosity calculation ; mask is applied
456      anyway later on, before computing advection/coriolis terms.
457    o modify exp4 to test new obcs support for reading from external files
458      and for passive tracers
459    o fix behavior of ptracers_monitor when monitor output is written to a
460      netcdf-file; still not independent of monitor.F (writes in the same
461      file).
462    o change default value of tRef (put a uniform, meaningful value for ocean
463      & atmos) and initialize sRef (was missing, as Martin mentioned).
464    o Redefine viscC?Leith*.  Change the coefficients of Leith viscosity
465      to be proportional to enstrophy dissipation length.  Thus,
466       viscC?leith?_new=pi*(viscC?leith?_old)^(1/3)
467      This is now consistent with Smagorinsky and with the manual.
468    
469    checkpoint57u_post
470    o OBCS and PTRACERS: add open boundary support for passive tracers
471      - either use homogenous (pseudo) v.Neumann conditions or prescribe
472        OB-values from file; this is not different from the way theta and salinity
473        are treated
474      - however, Orlanski-radiation conditions are not supported, and the model
475        will stop if you use pTracers and Orlanski at the same time.
476      - beefed up the rountine obcs_external_fields_load: now only those open
477        boundary values are overwritten with values from files for which there
478        are really files, otherwise the OB-fields remain untouched. This makes
479        it possible to use different OBs at different ends of the domain (as
480        with EXF)
481    o reduce number of exch calls in shap_filt (s2).
482    o CS-grid: fix divergence contribution to Leith viscosity. Affects (@
483      truncation level) 4/5 MLAdjust test results (11&12 digits match).
484    
485    checkpoint57t_post
486    o test biharmonic viscosity + no-slip with exp: global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
487    o finish adding brackets (coriolis S/R, vecinv) in multi-terms sum to get
488      same truncation, independent of the face number: affects affects several
489      test. exp.: Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
490    o fix bug in mom_v_sidedrag (biharmonic viscosity was counted 2 times);
491      note that biharmonic viscosity + no-slip was not tested in any experiment.
492    o fix bug in non-linear free-surf side-drag ; generate new output for
493      global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & global_ocean_pressure.
494    o make mnc honor the writeBinaryPrec flag for most kinds of output
495    o eesupp: split EEPARAMS into EESIZE/EEPARAMS and add a vector global sum
496    o minor change in averaging W (mom_vi_?_vertshear.F) that affects truncation
497      error; update output from global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
498    o add brackets in multi-terms sum to get same truncation, independent of
499      the face number (manage to get exactly same value of gU,gV at the cs-edge)
500      affects several test. exp. Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice).
501    o Clean, new version of mom_calc_visc.  Adds a new feature, viscAhRemax
502      and viscA4Remax, which allow one to limit the minimum viscosity by specifying
503      a maximum grid-scale Reynolds number.  Also, changes all length calculations
504      in the case of grid anisotropy to geometric mean of dx**2 and dy**2.
505      Suggested values of viscosity parameters found in mom_calc_visc.
506      Many new viscosity diagnostics available.
507    
508    checkpoint57s_post
509    o Add clearing-house for viscosity calculations, mom_calc_visc and
510      correct numerous bugs in LeithD and Smagorinsky discretizations.  
511      mom_calc_visc now allows for Smagorinsky, Leith and LeithD to be
512      used simultaneously, and to be used in mom_vecinv and mom_fluxform.
513      Mom_vecinv can be used with standard viscous calculation (mom_vi_hdissip.F)
514      and with Strain-Tension viscous term calculation (mom_hdissip.F).  
515      The Strain-Tension form is now called with useStrainTensonVisc=.true.
516      ViscAhStrain and viscAhTension are now retired.
517    o diagnostics "VISCAHD" & "VISCA4D" replace "VISCAH" & "VISCA4".
518    o In response to JMC's bug report, genmake2 now ignores any soft-links
519      that it finds in the *current* directory when searching for files.
520      Soft-links found in any other source directories will still work as
521      they did before.
522    o add HAVE_SETRLSTK define and useSETRLSTK flag (eedata) which calls
523      a C routine to unlimit the stack size
524    o mnc-ify pkg/aim snapshot vars
525    o mnc-ify pkg/land as requested by Daniel
526    o various changes to mnc including:
527      - all files use the new "BASENAME[[.ITER].{t|f}NUM].nc" format
528      - output can now be grouped so that all files within a group
529          change the ITER portion of their names in lock-step together
530      - can now read ("global") PER-FACE (in addition to PER-TILE) files
531          and works with both EXCH1 and EXCH2 (but needs more testing)
532      - writing works for all verification test cases w/ g77 on Linux
533    
534    checkpoint57r_post
535    o make MNC variable initialization happen earlier
536    o add diagnostics for (almost) each term of the momentum Eq.
537    o remove SST,SSS,UVEL_k2,VVEL_k2 diagnostics.
538  o move pkg timeave out of pkg-groups "oceanic" & "atmospheric" (pkg/pkg_groups)  o move pkg timeave out of pkg-groups "oceanic" & "atmospheric" (pkg/pkg_groups)
539  o remove MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT option ;  o remove MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT option ;
540    add "dumpInitAndLast" to replace "nodumps" (and MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT).    add "dumpInitAndLast" to replace "nodumps" (and MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT).
541  o move some basic S/R (used elsewhere in the code) from pkg/mdsio to eesupp/src  o move some basic S/R (used elsewhere in the code) from pkg/mdsio to eesupp/src
542    allows to compile without pkg/mdsio (& test successfully hs94.1x64x5)    allows to compile without pkg/mdsio (& test successfully hs94.1x64x5)
543    o add MNC output for adjoint of EXF (adexf), SEAICE (adseaice)
544    o add time-dependent SST, SSS control
545    o cost terms in ecco/ modularized (new cost_generic.F)
546    o cost_averages routines are modularized (new cost_averagesgeneric.F)
547    o new infrastructure for seaice model vs. obs misfits in seaice/
548      * driver from the_main_loop.F is seaice_cost_driver.F
549      * first term is AREA vs. SMR observation misfit (ALLOW_SEAICE_COST_SMR_AREA)
550      * gradient check in Exp. 6a of natl_box_adjoint/
551    o natl_box_adjoint input_seaice for Lab. Sea now available online via wget
552      (see README file)
553    
554  checkpoint57q_post  checkpoint57q_post
555  o fix initialisation Pb in calc_gw (get NANs in exp5 with g77)  o fix initialisation Pb in calc_gw (get NANs in exp5 with g77)
