4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o seaice: add runtime flags for turning angles (default to zero)
8    o Adding runtime parameter to exf/, ctrl/, to remove on-the-fly global mean
9      and trend from exf forcing and ctrl control adjustments
10    o fix variable aliasing in gad_calc_rhs that cannot be handled by TAF
11      (since checkpoint57x_post)
12    o change the default rotation period to 86164.s = the Earth rotation
13    o 1rst implementation of Implicit IGW using the 3-D solver (use3Dsolver=T)
14      and based on a reference stratification. Tested within hs94.cs-32x32x5.
15    o seaice advection: add code for choosing between the default (2nd order
16      central differences) and multiDim advection schemes provided by
17      pkg/generic_advdiff
18    o seaice:
19      - removed all references to SEAICE_GRID.h fields from
20        dynsolver, advect, diffus, lsr, without changing the results of lab_sea
21        (cubed-sphere configuration will change a little)
22      - grid computations in seaice_init are obsolete now.
23      - cleaned up code a little so that is easier to read (hopefully).
24      - added new (better?) discretizations of default advection and diffusion
25        (turn on with SEAICEuseFluxForm)
26      - replace 1 in 3d global fields by kSurface in growth.F
27      
28    checkpoint58a_post
29    o seaice:
30      - bug fix in advect.F
31    o shelfice:
32      - separate shelfice load anomaly from pload (breaks with time
33        dependent forcing), => introduce constant field shelficeLoadAnomaly.
34        Its default is 0., but it may be computed more cleverly from (unknown)
35        t- and s-profiles (tRef, sRef) and actual EOS. For now this has to be
36        done offline. A good approximation of the pressure load anomaly is
37        necessary to avoid large initial adjustment processes underneath
38        deep-reaching shelfice.
39      - small fix in ISOMIP shelfice_thermodynamics
40      - add more sophisticated thermodynamics of Hellmer (1989), this is
41        now the default
42      - give a few constants more intuitive names
43    o add code to balance EmPmP and Qnet at the end of do_ocean_physics. Useful
44      if bulk formulae are used in long integration (especially EmPmR). Turn
45      on with balanceEmPmR = .true. or balanceQnet = .true. in data, PARM01
46      if balancePrintMean, the imbalance that is substracted is printed to
47      STDOUT.
48    o fix bug (typo) in obcs_apply_eta.F
49    o add a new package shelfice which enables us to model the circulation
50      underneath shelf-ice with draughts of hundreds of meters.
51     - works
52     - to do: + include improved thermodynamics
53              + check whether kSurfC (from model/inc/SURFACE.h) can be used
54                instead of new field kTopC
55              + can we use topoFile, Ro_surf and existing code in ini_depth.F
56                instead of new field R_shelfIce and new code in ini_depth.F
57                and ini_mask_etc.F?
58              + adjust vertical mixing schemes?
59    o seaice pkg:
60     - add a cpp-flag to include a simple formula for a salinity dependent
61       freezing point of sea water at the surface
62     - change the contents of SEAICE_TEST_ICE_STRESS_1 so that zonal and
63       meridional stresses are now different (and hopefully correct)
64    o AIM pkg: change threshold on large-scale condensation to conserve Heat.
65       update results of aim.5l_LatLon test ; fix title & units of AIM diagnostics
66       and  change 3 diagnostics names (OSR,OSRCLR,KM -> TSR,TSRCLR,DRAG)
67    o pkg/diagnostics: add options and parameters for regional-statistics
68       diagnostics ; define regions by reading a region-mask from a file
69       (might add other options later)
70    o pkg/bulk_force:
71     - add option and parameters to use AIM surface-flux formulae.
72     - Change loading part: S/R BULKF_FIELDS_LOAD only take care of bulkf_fields ;
73       others forcing fields (defined in PARM05, parameter file "data") are loaded
74       from S/R EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD, as usually (with useBulkforce = T or F).
75     - initialise all bulkf_fields in bulkf_init.F ; do in-lining of exf_bulkcdn.F
76     - use the right EXCH call for uwind,vwind (to work on CS-grid).
77     - re-arrange header files (move parameters from BULKF.h to BULKF_PARAMS.h)
78       and parameters (note: calcWindStress replaces .NOT.readwindstress).
79     - cleaner interface with pkg/thSIce (new S/R THSICE_GET_PRECIP).
80    
81    checkpoint58
82    o add "--embed-source" option to genmake2 which, when the supporting
83      tools can be compiled (as determined by genmake2) will turn on the
84      embed_files package which then embeds the entire MITgcm source code
85      (*.[fFhc] + Makefile) used for the build within the executable
86      - requested by CNH but off by default
87      - adds a paltry <9MB to the mitgcmuv executable in most cases
88      - only writes the output when useEMBEDSRC in eedata is true
89    o clean up 3-dim. relaxation codes:
90      * Fix I/O inconsistency in pkg/rbcs: replace precFloat32 by readBinaryPrec
91      * Remove 3-dim. relaxation code from pkg/exf (now use only pkg/rbcs)
92      * Thanks to Tom Haine for testing!
93    
94    checkpoint57z_post
95    o make CG3D solver compatible with Free-surface at k > 1 (p-coordinate):
96      affects output (@ truncation level) of exp. plume_on_slope ; updated.
97    o fix the pickup behavior for obcs in combination with ptracers
98    o fix a bug in ptracers_external_fields_load
99    o no AB-2 at the first iteration for Gw (consistent with Gu,Gv,Gt,Gs ...)
100      affects results of NH experiments (but all our NH tests have Gw[it=1]==0 !!)
101    o transfered surface NH pressure to eta field (if exactConserv).
102    o gmredi: fix bugs in slope tapering ldd97 (depthZ had the wrong sign)
103         and update lab_sea output.txt file.
104    o completing 3-dim. relaxation code: additional term
105         1/tau*( theta(i,j,k) - thetaStar(i,j,k) )
106      in S/R EXTERNAL_FORCING_T (file external_forcing.F)
107      * At compile time, in "EXF_OPTIONS.h" set
108          #define  ALLOW_CLIMTEMP_RELAXATION
109          #define  ALLOW_CLIMSALT_RELAXATION
110      * At runtime in "data", under &PARM03 set (e.g., units in seconds)
111          tauThetaClimRelax3Dim = 15552000.0,
112          tauSaltClimRelax3Dim  = 15552000.0,
113      * 3 cases:
114          1) Use a constant-in-time 3-dim. field
115          2) Provide 12 3-dim. fields corresponding to Jan., ... , Dec.
116          3) Real-time relax. to time-evolving prescribed field
117    o Adding Laplacian-type smoothness constraint on
118      initial and boundary (forcing) controls (ic, bc)
119      * enable at compile-time via
120        ALLOW_SMOOTH_IC_COST_CONTRIBUTION, ALLOW_SMOOTH_BC_COST_CONTRIBUTION
121      * enable at run-time via mult_smooth_ic = 1, mult_smooth_bc = 1
122      * Absolute scale somewhat unclear so far
123      * no area weighting was included since no other cost term does so far
124    
125    checkpoint57y_post
126    First step for a NLFS adjoint
127    o initially suppress rStar (new flag DISABLE_RSTAR_CODE)
128    o new init. routines for calc_r_star, calc_surf_dr
129    o still need to deal with ini_masks_etc
130    o testreport seemed happy
131    checkpoint57y_pre
132    
133    o obcs: always reset wVel & eta (to zero or prescribe it) at the OBs.
134    o add new package rbcs (for relaxing ptracers at boundaries/depth/surface etc)
135    o add new offset feature to offline pkg (plus minor cleanup)
136    o cfc fixes for final year of integration
137    o clean up GCHEM_OPTIONS.h/DIC_OPTIONS.h (all options should
138      be in GCHEM_OPTIONS).
139    
140    checkpoint57x_post
141    o fix testreport Pb in multiple test experiment.
142    o cleanup our namelist syntax in verification:
143      - make it more F95 standards compliant (some work still needed)
144      - allows the vast majority of our tests to work with gfortran
145    o Non-Hydrostatic:
146     - put all NH variables (formerly in DYNVARS.h & GW.h) in NH_VARS.h
147     - fix exchange calls for CS-grid using the new EXCH_S3D_RL.
148    o Allow to apply AB on T,S rather than on AB(gT,gS):
149     - implemented within #ifdef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3
150     - use the same arrays (gtNm,gsNm) to hold tracer field at previous
151       time-steps (if AB(T,S)) and tendencies (if AB(gT,gS)).
152     - need a "clever" read_pickup to restart from the other AB formulation
153    o move local commom bloc /GlobalLo/ (used for singleCpuIO) in EESUPPORT.h
154    o remove some unused variables (reduces number of compiler warnings)
155    o adjoint
156      * Disable useVariableViscosity for adjoint for time being
157        (there are a number of extensive recomputations)
158      * Initialize certain variables needed for adjoint
159    
160    checkpoint57w_post
161    o pkg/mdsio: use MAX_LEN_FNAM (instead of hard coded 80) for file-names
162                 fix the singleCpuIO RS version of MDSWRITEFIELD
163       and add a WARNING if using globalFiles=T with multi-processors.
164    o write grid-file(s) in only one format (MDS or MNC): default=MNC (if
165      using MNC); can force MDS output by setting writegrid_mnc=F in data.mnc
166    o tracer advection scheme:
167      add DST-2 (=Lax-Wendroff) & 1rst order upwind schemes (the way to get
168       those 2 schemes before, changing GAD_FLUX_LIMITER.h + to recompile,
169       was not very convenient).
170      add implicit version for DST-3 & DST3_Flux_Limit vertical advection;  
171       (further tests needed for the implicit DST & Flux-Limiter schemes).
172    o PTRACERS: added namelist parameter PTRACERS_ref in analogy to tRef
173      and sRef for convenience, handy, when you want to initialize
174      ptracers in a large domain with a constant non-zero value. Also,
175      untangle ptracers_init.F a little.
176    
177    checkpoint57v_post
178    o change dome exp. to use variable viscosity in side-drag terms.
179    o remove all the files from the cfc_offline test since they are now
180      incorporated into tutorial_cfc_offline which has been producing
181      identical results for a few days of testing
182    o add new parameter: sideDragFactor to enable half-slip-side BC
183      and change side-drag S/R to use viscosity from mom_calc_visc
184      (can switch back by setting sideDragFactor=0.); affects results at
185      truncation level; regenerate output for exp.: global_ocean.cs32x10(x3),
186       global_ocean_ebm, global_ocean_pressure, matrix_example & MLAdjust(x5).
187    o vorticity & strain are now computed without masking, to account for
188      no-slip-side BC in variable viscosity calculation ; mask is applied
189      anyway later on, before computing advection/coriolis terms.
190    o modify exp4 to test new obcs support for reading from external files
191      and for passive tracers
192    o fix behavior of ptracers_monitor when monitor output is written to a
193      netcdf-file; still not independent of monitor.F (writes in the same
194      file).
195    o change default value of tRef (put a uniform, meaningful value for ocean
196      & atmos) and initialize sRef (was missing, as Martin mentioned).
197    o Redefine viscC?Leith*.  Change the coefficients of Leith viscosity
198      to be proportional to enstrophy dissipation length.  Thus,
199       viscC?leith?_new=pi*(viscC?leith?_old)^(1/3)
200      This is now consistent with Smagorinsky and with the manual.
201    
202    checkpoint57u_post
203    o OBCS and PTRACERS: add open boundary support for passive tracers
204      - either use homogenous (pseudo) v.Neumann conditions or prescribe
205        OB-values from file; this is not different from the way theta and salinity
206        are treated
207      - however, Orlanski-radiation conditions are not supported, and the model
208        will stop if you use pTracers and Orlanski at the same time.
209      - beefed up the rountine obcs_external_fields_load: now only those open
210        boundary values are overwritten with values from files for which there
211        are really files, otherwise the OB-fields remain untouched. This makes
212        it possible to use different OBs at different ends of the domain (as
213        with EXF)
214    o reduce number of exch calls in shap_filt (s2).
215    o CS-grid: fix divergence contribution to Leith viscosity. Affects (@
216      truncation level) 4/5 MLAdjust test results (11&12 digits match).
217    
218    checkpoint57t_post
219    o test biharmonic viscosity + no-slip with exp: global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
220    o finish adding brackets (coriolis S/R, vecinv) in multi-terms sum to get
221      same truncation, independent of the face number: affects affects several
222      test. exp.: Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
223    o fix bug in mom_v_sidedrag (biharmonic viscosity was counted 2 times);
224      note that biharmonic viscosity + no-slip was not tested in any experiment.
225  o fix bug in non-linear free-surf side-drag ; generate new output for  o fix bug in non-linear free-surf side-drag ; generate new output for
226    global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & global_ocean_pressure.    global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & global_ocean_pressure.
