5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o change the default rotation period to 86164.s = the Earth rotation
8    o 1rst implementation of Implicit IGW using the 3-D solver (use3Dsolver=T)
9      and based on a reference stratification. Tested within hs94.cs-32x32x5.
10    o seaice advection: add code for choosing between the default (2nd order
11      central differences) and multiDim advection schemes provided by
12      pkg/generic_advdiff
13    o seaice:
14      - removed all references to SEAICE_GRID.h fields from
15        dynsolver, advect, diffus, lsr, without changing the results of lab_sea
16        (cubed-sphere configuration will change a little)
17      - grid computations in seaice_init are obsolete now.
18      - cleaned up code a little so that is easier to read (hopefully).
19      - added new (better?) discretizations of default advection and diffusion
20        (turn on with SEAICEuseFluxForm)
21      - replace 1 in 3d global fields by kSurface in growth.F
22      
23    checkpoint58a_post
24    o seaice:
25      - bug fix in advect.F
26    o shelfice:
27      - separate shelfice load anomaly from pload (breaks with time
28        dependent forcing), => introduce constant field shelficeLoadAnomaly.
29        Its default is 0., but it may be computed more cleverly from (unknown)
30        t- and s-profiles (tRef, sRef) and actual EOS. For now this has to be
31        done offline. A good approximation of the pressure load anomaly is
32        necessary to avoid large initial adjustment processes underneath
33        deep-reaching shelfice.
34      - small fix in ISOMIP shelfice_thermodynamics
35      - add more sophisticated thermodynamics of Hellmer (1989), this is
36        now the default
37      - give a few constants more intuitive names
38    o add code to balance EmPmP and Qnet at the end of do_ocean_physics. Useful
39      if bulk formulae are used in long integration (especially EmPmR). Turn
40      on with balanceEmPmR = .true. or balanceQnet = .true. in data, PARM01
41      if balancePrintMean, the imbalance that is substracted is printed to
42      STDOUT.
43    o fix bug (typo) in obcs_apply_eta.F
44    o add a new package shelfice which enables us to model the circulation
45      underneath shelf-ice with draughts of hundreds of meters.
46     - works
47     - to do: + include improved thermodynamics
48              + check whether kSurfC (from model/inc/SURFACE.h) can be used
49                instead of new field kTopC
50              + can we use topoFile, Ro_surf and existing code in ini_depth.F
51                instead of new field R_shelfIce and new code in ini_depth.F
52                and ini_mask_etc.F?
53              + adjust vertical mixing schemes?
54    o seaice pkg:
55     - add a cpp-flag to include a simple formula for a salinity dependent
56       freezing point of sea water at the surface
57     - change the contents of SEAICE_TEST_ICE_STRESS_1 so that zonal and
58       meridional stresses are now different (and hopefully correct)
59    o AIM pkg: change threshold on large-scale condensation to conserve Heat.
60       update results of aim.5l_LatLon test ; fix title & units of AIM diagnostics
61       and  change 3 diagnostics names (OSR,OSRCLR,KM -> TSR,TSRCLR,DRAG)
62    o pkg/diagnostics: add options and parameters for regional-statistics
63       diagnostics ; define regions by reading a region-mask from a file
64       (might add other options later)
65    o pkg/bulk_force:
66     - add option and parameters to use AIM surface-flux formulae.
67     - Change loading part: S/R BULKF_FIELDS_LOAD only take care of bulkf_fields ;
68       others forcing fields (defined in PARM05, parameter file "data") are loaded
69       from S/R EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD, as usually (with useBulkforce = T or F).
70     - initialise all bulkf_fields in bulkf_init.F ; do in-lining of exf_bulkcdn.F
71     - use the right EXCH call for uwind,vwind (to work on CS-grid).
72     - re-arrange header files (move parameters from BULKF.h to BULKF_PARAMS.h)
73       and parameters (note: calcWindStress replaces .NOT.readwindstress).
74     - cleaner interface with pkg/thSIce (new S/R THSICE_GET_PRECIP).
75    
76    checkpoint58
77    o add "--embed-source" option to genmake2 which, when the supporting
78      tools can be compiled (as determined by genmake2) will turn on the
79      embed_files package which then embeds the entire MITgcm source code
80      (*.[fFhc] + Makefile) used for the build within the executable
81      - requested by CNH but off by default
82      - adds a paltry <9MB to the mitgcmuv executable in most cases
83      - only writes the output when useEMBEDSRC in eedata is true
84    o clean up 3-dim. relaxation codes:
85      * Fix I/O inconsistency in pkg/rbcs: replace precFloat32 by readBinaryPrec
86      * Remove 3-dim. relaxation code from pkg/exf (now use only pkg/rbcs)
87      * Thanks to Tom Haine for testing!
88    
89    checkpoint57z_post
90    o make CG3D solver compatible with Free-surface at k > 1 (p-coordinate):
91      affects output (@ truncation level) of exp. plume_on_slope ; updated.
92    o fix the pickup behavior for obcs in combination with ptracers
93    o fix a bug in ptracers_external_fields_load
94    o no AB-2 at the first iteration for Gw (consistent with Gu,Gv,Gt,Gs ...)
95      affects results of NH experiments (but all our NH tests have Gw[it=1]==0 !!)
96    o transfered surface NH pressure to eta field (if exactConserv).
97    o gmredi: fix bugs in slope tapering ldd97 (depthZ had the wrong sign)
98         and update lab_sea output.txt file.
99    o completing 3-dim. relaxation code: additional term
100         1/tau*( theta(i,j,k) - thetaStar(i,j,k) )
101      in S/R EXTERNAL_FORCING_T (file external_forcing.F)
102      * At compile time, in "EXF_OPTIONS.h" set
103          #define  ALLOW_CLIMTEMP_RELAXATION
104          #define  ALLOW_CLIMSALT_RELAXATION
105      * At runtime in "data", under &PARM03 set (e.g., units in seconds)
106          tauThetaClimRelax3Dim = 15552000.0,
107          tauSaltClimRelax3Dim  = 15552000.0,
108      * 3 cases:
109          1) Use a constant-in-time 3-dim. field
110          2) Provide 12 3-dim. fields corresponding to Jan., ... , Dec.
111          3) Real-time relax. to time-evolving prescribed field
112    o Adding Laplacian-type smoothness constraint on
113      initial and boundary (forcing) controls (ic, bc)
114      * enable at compile-time via
115        ALLOW_SMOOTH_IC_COST_CONTRIBUTION, ALLOW_SMOOTH_BC_COST_CONTRIBUTION
116      * enable at run-time via mult_smooth_ic = 1, mult_smooth_bc = 1
117      * Absolute scale somewhat unclear so far
118      * no area weighting was included since no other cost term does so far
119    
120    checkpoint57y_post
121    First step for a NLFS adjoint
122    o initially suppress rStar (new flag DISABLE_RSTAR_CODE)
123    o new init. routines for calc_r_star, calc_surf_dr
124    o still need to deal with ini_masks_etc
125    o testreport seemed happy
126    checkpoint57y_pre
127    
128    o obcs: always reset wVel & eta (to zero or prescribe it) at the OBs.
129    o add new package rbcs (for relaxing ptracers at boundaries/depth/surface etc)
130    o add new offset feature to offline pkg (plus minor cleanup)
131    o cfc fixes for final year of integration
132    o clean up GCHEM_OPTIONS.h/DIC_OPTIONS.h (all options should
133      be in GCHEM_OPTIONS).
134    
135    checkpoint57x_post
136    o fix testreport Pb in multiple test experiment.
137    o cleanup our namelist syntax in verification:
138      - make it more F95 standards compliant (some work still needed)
139      - allows the vast majority of our tests to work with gfortran
140    o Non-Hydrostatic:
141     - put all NH variables (formerly in DYNVARS.h & GW.h) in NH_VARS.h
142     - fix exchange calls for CS-grid using the new EXCH_S3D_RL.
143    o Allow to apply AB on T,S rather than on AB(gT,gS):
144     - implemented within #ifdef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3
145     - use the same arrays (gtNm,gsNm) to hold tracer field at previous
146       time-steps (if AB(T,S)) and tendencies (if AB(gT,gS)).
147     - need a "clever" read_pickup to restart from the other AB formulation
148    o move local commom bloc /GlobalLo/ (used for singleCpuIO) in EESUPPORT.h
149    o remove some unused variables (reduces number of compiler warnings)
150    o adjoint
151      * Disable useVariableViscosity for adjoint for time being
152        (there are a number of extensive recomputations)
153      * Initialize certain variables needed for adjoint
154    
155    checkpoint57w_post
156    o pkg/mdsio: use MAX_LEN_FNAM (instead of hard coded 80) for file-names
157                 fix the singleCpuIO RS version of MDSWRITEFIELD
158       and add a WARNING if using globalFiles=T with multi-processors.
159    o write grid-file(s) in only one format (MDS or MNC): default=MNC (if
160      using MNC); can force MDS output by setting writegrid_mnc=F in data.mnc
161    o tracer advection scheme:
162      add DST-2 (=Lax-Wendroff) & 1rst order upwind schemes (the way to get
163       those 2 schemes before, changing GAD_FLUX_LIMITER.h + to recompile,
164       was not very convenient).
165      add implicit version for DST-3 & DST3_Flux_Limit vertical advection;  
166       (further tests needed for the implicit DST & Flux-Limiter schemes).
167    o PTRACERS: added namelist parameter PTRACERS_ref in analogy to tRef
168      and sRef for convenience, handy, when you want to initialize
169      ptracers in a large domain with a constant non-zero value. Also,
170      untangle ptracers_init.F a little.
171    
172    checkpoint57v_post
173    o change dome exp. to use variable viscosity in side-drag terms.
174    o remove all the files from the cfc_offline test since they are now
175      incorporated into tutorial_cfc_offline which has been producing
176      identical results for a few days of testing
177    o add new parameter: sideDragFactor to enable half-slip-side BC
178      and change side-drag S/R to use viscosity from mom_calc_visc
179      (can switch back by setting sideDragFactor=0.); affects results at
180      truncation level; regenerate output for exp.: global_ocean.cs32x10(x3),
181       global_ocean_ebm, global_ocean_pressure, matrix_example & MLAdjust(x5).
182    o vorticity & strain are now computed without masking, to account for
183      no-slip-side BC in variable viscosity calculation ; mask is applied
184      anyway later on, before computing advection/coriolis terms.
185    o modify exp4 to test new obcs support for reading from external files
186      and for passive tracers
187    o fix behavior of ptracers_monitor when monitor output is written to a
188      netcdf-file; still not independent of monitor.F (writes in the same
189      file).
190    o change default value of tRef (put a uniform, meaningful value for ocean
191      & atmos) and initialize sRef (was missing, as Martin mentioned).
192    o Redefine viscC?Leith*.  Change the coefficients of Leith viscosity
193      to be proportional to enstrophy dissipation length.  Thus,
194       viscC?leith?_new=pi*(viscC?leith?_old)^(1/3)
195      This is now consistent with Smagorinsky and with the manual.
196    
197    checkpoint57u_post
198    o OBCS and PTRACERS: add open boundary support for passive tracers
199      - either use homogenous (pseudo) v.Neumann conditions or prescribe
200        OB-values from file; this is not different from the way theta and salinity
201        are treated
202      - however, Orlanski-radiation conditions are not supported, and the model
203        will stop if you use pTracers and Orlanski at the same time.
204      - beefed up the rountine obcs_external_fields_load: now only those open
205        boundary values are overwritten with values from files for which there
206        are really files, otherwise the OB-fields remain untouched. This makes
207        it possible to use different OBs at different ends of the domain (as
208        with EXF)
209    o reduce number of exch calls in shap_filt (s2).
210    o CS-grid: fix divergence contribution to Leith viscosity. Affects (@
211      truncation level) 4/5 MLAdjust test results (11&12 digits match).
212    
213    checkpoint57t_post
214    o test biharmonic viscosity + no-slip with exp: global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
215    o finish adding brackets (coriolis S/R, vecinv) in multi-terms sum to get
216      same truncation, independent of the face number: affects affects several
217      test. exp.: Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
218    o fix bug in mom_v_sidedrag (biharmonic viscosity was counted 2 times);
219      note that biharmonic viscosity + no-slip was not tested in any experiment.
220    o fix bug in non-linear free-surf side-drag ; generate new output for
221      global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & global_ocean_pressure.
222    o make mnc honor the writeBinaryPrec flag for most kinds of output
223    o eesupp: split EEPARAMS into EESIZE/EEPARAMS and add a vector global sum
224    o minor change in averaging W (mom_vi_?_vertshear.F) that affects truncation
225      error; update output from global_ocean.cs32x15(+.thsice) & MLAdjust (all 5).
226    o add brackets in multi-terms sum to get same truncation, independent of
227      the face number (manage to get exactly same value of gU,gV at the cs-edge)
228      affects several test. exp. Update global_ocean.cs32x15 (+.thsice).
229    o Clean, new version of mom_calc_visc.  Adds a new feature, viscAhRemax
230      and viscA4Remax, which allow one to limit the minimum viscosity by specifying
231      a maximum grid-scale Reynolds number.  Also, changes all length calculations
232      in the case of grid anisotropy to geometric mean of dx**2 and dy**2.
233      Suggested values of viscosity parameters found in mom_calc_visc.
234      Many new viscosity diagnostics available.
235    
236    checkpoint57s_post
237    o Add clearing-house for viscosity calculations, mom_calc_visc and
238      correct numerous bugs in LeithD and Smagorinsky discretizations.  
239      mom_calc_visc now allows for Smagorinsky, Leith and LeithD to be
240      used simultaneously, and to be used in mom_vecinv and mom_fluxform.
241      Mom_vecinv can be used with standard viscous calculation (mom_vi_hdissip.F)
242      and with Strain-Tension viscous term calculation (mom_hdissip.F).  
243      The Strain-Tension form is now called with useStrainTensonVisc=.true.
244      ViscAhStrain and viscAhTension are now retired.
245    o diagnostics "VISCAHD" & "VISCA4D" replace "VISCAH" & "VISCA4".
246    o In response to JMC's bug report, genmake2 now ignores any soft-links
247      that it finds in the *current* directory when searching for files.
248      Soft-links found in any other source directories will still work as
249      they did before.
250    o add HAVE_SETRLSTK define and useSETRLSTK flag (eedata) which calls
251      a C routine to unlimit the stack size
252    o mnc-ify pkg/aim snapshot vars
253    o mnc-ify pkg/land as requested by Daniel
254    o various changes to mnc including:
255      - all files use the new "BASENAME[[.ITER].{t|f}NUM].nc" format
256      - output can now be grouped so that all files within a group
257          change the ITER portion of their names in lock-step together
258      - can now read ("global") PER-FACE (in addition to PER-TILE) files
259          and works with both EXCH1 and EXCH2 (but needs more testing)
260      - writing works for all verification test cases w/ g77 on Linux
261    
262    checkpoint57r_post
263    o make MNC variable initialization happen earlier
264    o add diagnostics for (almost) each term of the momentum Eq.
265    o remove SST,SSS,UVEL_k2,VVEL_k2 diagnostics.
266    o move pkg timeave out of pkg-groups "oceanic" & "atmospheric" (pkg/pkg_groups)
267    o remove MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT option ;
268      add "dumpInitAndLast" to replace "nodumps" (and MINIMAL_TAVE_OUTPUT).
269    o move some basic S/R (used elsewhere in the code) from pkg/mdsio to eesupp/src
270      allows to compile without pkg/mdsio (& test successfully hs94.1x64x5)
271    o add MNC output for adjoint of EXF (adexf), SEAICE (adseaice)
272    o add time-dependent SST, SSS control
273    o cost terms in ecco/ modularized (new cost_generic.F)
274    o cost_averages routines are modularized (new cost_averagesgeneric.F)
275    o new infrastructure for seaice model vs. obs misfits in seaice/
276      * driver from the_main_loop.F is seaice_cost_driver.F
277      * first term is AREA vs. SMR observation misfit (ALLOW_SEAICE_COST_SMR_AREA)
278      * gradient check in Exp. 6a of natl_box_adjoint/
279    o natl_box_adjoint input_seaice for Lab. Sea now available online via wget
280      (see README file)
281    
282    checkpoint57q_post
283    o fix initialisation Pb in calc_gw (get NANs in exp5 with g77)
284    o fix annoying months-old bug in mnc/mdsio output for seaice pkg
285      - bug was reported by Jean-Michel and Ian Fenty
286    o fix initialization Pb in AIM-Ocean coupled model (aim_sice2aim.F)
287      update exp. cpl_aim+ocn output.
288    o Implement 4-level checkpointing: AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
289      Needed for high-res. runs with large global files
290      to be able to limit tapelev size
291    o Changed some tests for adjoint:
292      * carbon/ now tests AUTODIFF_2_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
293      * natl_box_adjoint/code_bulk/ tests AUTODIFF_4_LEVEL_CHECKPOINT
294      * global_ocean.90x40x15/ back to default 3-level checkpointing
295    o Modifications to enable scripted COMMON to MODULE conversion
296      * verification/OpenAD/code/ has necessary scripts and description;
297      * converts, compiles and runs successfully;
298    
299    checkpoint57p_post
300    o reading of delXfile & delYfile moved from ini_parms.F to ini_grid.F
301    o move ${PKG}_MNC_INIT from ${PKG}_READ_PARAMS to ${PKG}_INIT_FIXED
302      (already the case for some pkgs, including recent MNC_init, e.g. thsice)
303    o call CALC_GW from DYNAMICS (instead of from FORWARD_STEP)
304    o Dissipation & phiHyd gradient are always added to gU,gV in timestep.F
305      (was already the case for dissipation with mom_vecinv,
306       and also the case for grad.PhiHyd when staggered-timeStep)
307      This will allow to put dissipation out-off the AB time-stepping.
308     Unfortunately, affects truncation error. Update output of exp. that "fails"
309      (cg2d matching number) and leave the others for later: front_relax(10),
310      global_ocean_pressure(10),ideal_2D_oce(10),internal_wave(9),lab_sea(12),
311      matrix_example(7!),natl_box(12),plume_on_slope(11),vermix(12x3,11x2).
312    
313    checkpoint57o_post
314    o fix MNC/MDSIO flags in PTRACERS so that (1) it works, and
315      (2) its ready to be documented during the 20050801 DocFest
316    o MNC-ify the gmredi package -- tested and works w/ and w/o mnc
317      for ideal_2D_oce and lab_sea on linux_ia32_g77
318    o set to #undef CTRL_SET_OLD_MAXCVARS_30
319      in global1x1_tot/code_seaice_adj to access indices 32, 33
320      (worth another tag)
321    
322    checkpoint57n_post
323    o adding precip control xx_precip 32
324    o adding swflux control xx_swflux 33
325    o Replacing 10 forcing penalty cost routines by 1 generic.
326    o Implementing partitioning in time-mean and variable adjustment
327      for atmos. state.
328    o Time-mean constant error is now read in data.ecco (instead of hard-coded)
329    o in natl_box_adjoint:
330      * updated exp 1 to 10
331        (but does not have time-mean vs. variable split results yet)
332    o updated global1x1/*_seaice_adj/
333      to incorporate latest changes
334    o enable useSingleCpuIO for mdsio vector routines
335      (applies in particular to tapelev I/O)
336    o removed inefficient K-loop in all active_file*control*.F
337    
338    checkpoint57m_post
339    o re-arrange exp. adjustment.cs-32x32x1 (adjust_nlfs.cs-32x32x1 merge into)
340      and advect_cs (use EXCH-2 and standard cs-32 grid files).
341    o pkg/exch2: filling of face-corner halo regions is optional
342      (ifdef W2_FILL_NULL_REGIONS) and is turned off by default.
343    
344    checkpoint57l_post
345     tag before updating tutorials (pre-release-2)
346    o add cos & sin of grid-direction orientation angle (curvilinear grid only,
347       for output and interpolation of input fields onto model grid)
348    o fix radius in mom_v_metric_cylinder.F (wrong by dy/2).
349       Affects results of exp. rotating_tank ; update output.txt.
350    o pkg/diagnostics: 2 new S/R to fill a diagnostics using a scaling factor
351          and taking the square quantity and/or using a fraction-weight field.
352    o fix aim_diagnostics_init.F mate numbers.
353    o add mnc output capability to diagnostics/diagstat and update
354      our cvsignore files for the ACSII output generated
355    
356    checkpoint57k_post
357    o lab_sea now uses diagnostics package and provides a suite of
358      new EXF diagnostics output.
359    
360    checkpoint57j_post
361    o exf
362      * bug fix in exf_bulkformulae for psimh (spotted by Eliyahu Biton):
363        Bracket missing in eqn. for psimh (eqn. 7 of Large & Pond, 1982);
364        terms -2*ATAN(x) + pi/2 were added to both stable and unstable case.
365      * extended diagnostics output
366        - now includes all EXF variables
367        - hs, hl moved to common block
368        - separate S/R for diagnostics, called after ctrl vector is added
369        - name changed for EXFsw -> EXFswnet, EXFlw -> EXFlwnet
370        - EXFqnet contains true Qnet (i.e. includes qsw)
371      * updated verif. lab_sea, global_with_exf
372      * Rearranging hflux (exf_mapfields -> exf_getforcing)
373        to ensure that diagnostics sees a true EXFqnet
374    o add matlab scripts for CS-grid vectors (in utils/cs_grid)
375    o diagnostics pkg: change pointers so that 1 diagnostic can be used
376      several times with different frequencies.
377    o mnc-ify the thsice package as requested by Daniel Enderton
378      - the monitor--MNC output needs work
379      - many attributes need to be added (most are currently blank)
380    o mnc-ify theaim_v23 package as requested by Daniel Enderton
381      - many attributes need to be added (most are currently blank)
382    o remove "groundAtK1" & "rkFac" (replaced by usingPCoords & -rkSign)
383    o add Sadourny like discretization to the 4th.O vorticity advection scheme
384    o fix bug in rStar code (calc_r_star.F) when used with topo/bathy.
385      update output.txt from: aim.5l_cs (& .thSI), cpl_aim+ocn,
386         fizhi-gridalt-hs and global_ocean.cs32x15 (& .thsice).
387    o fix few little things to avoid floating error with -ftrapuv (ifort v9)
388     (ini_spherical_polar_grid.F, calc_r_star.F, monitor/mon_surfcor.F)
389    
390    checkpoint57i_post
391    o Diagnostics package was changed: diagnostic allocation is now deactivated
392      by setting an empty file name in the namelist (used to be by setting 0 frequency)
393    o momentum advection (VI form) options: activate 4th.O vorticity Coriolis ;
394      add 1rst Order upwind vertical Shear.
395    o add a quick fix for A/B checkpointing in OFFLINE mode
396    o add IGNORE_TIME define and -ignore_time option to genmake2 as an
397      end-run around the C/Fortran linking horror in eesup/src/timers.F
398    o added pkg/runclock: allows user to terminate run based on wall clock
399    o added non-hydrostatic scaling parameter: nh_am2
400    o pkg/my82: futile attempt to make results compiler-independent by adding
401      some "_d 0", etc. no effect.
402    o for mnc output, fill the 'T' coordinate var with myTime and create a
403      separate 'iter' variable for iteration count
404    o pkg/diagnostics:
405      add new capability: output of Global/Regional & per-level statistics ;
406      tested against monitor output (including land & thSIce) on various exp.
407    o make seaice-pkg I/O type flags (MNC/MDS) more standard.
408    
409    checkpoint57h_done
410      tag after changing user customized files (DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h,
411      data.diagnostics, data.gchem, data.ptracers) is done.
412    
413    o pkg/diagnostics: prepare for Global/Regional statistics.
414      add 2nd namelist in data.diagnostics and update DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h
415    o remove "baseTime" (no used) from arg. list of DIFF_BASE_MULTIPLE
416      and rename it: DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE
417    
418    checkpoint57h_post
419    o move tIter0 from data.gchem to PTRACERS_Iter0 in data.ptracers
420    o pkg/diagnostics: change output frequency, now in seconds (instead
421      of Nb of iterations). This requires to change data.diagnostics.
422    checkpoint57h_pre
423    
424    o in mnc, let the user create the output dir if both mnc_outdir_date
425      and mnc_outdir_num are false
426    o add fflags() to pkg/diagnostics which allows one to specify, on a
427      per-file basis, the file precision [default behavior is unchanged]
428    o added diagnostics to pkg/kpp, including computation of mixed layer
429      depth based on a temperature/density criterion
430    o updated verification/natl_box to test the new pkg/kpp diagnostics
431    o bugs fixed (with useAbsVorticity=T & with useJamartMomAdv=T)
432    o test AB-3 code with 4th.Order advection scheme (advect_xy/input.ab3_c4)
433    o fix mnc flags in pkg/seaice so that they are "owned" by seaice,
434      not mnc -- this mistake was found by JMC and is now corrected
435    
436    checkpoint57g_post
437    o add Adams-Bashforth 3rd Order time stepping:
438      - default remains AB-2 (#undef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3)
439      - not yet implemented with NH, CD_Scheme, pTracers, MNC_pickup ...
440    checkpoint57g_pre
441    
442    o make lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax spatially varying
443      (default remains spatially uniform constant based on tau)
444    o added new control variables
445      * init. uVel, vVel, etanN
446      * lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax
447    o separate masks used for ctrl_pack/unpack 'from write_grid' output
448      (suggested by G. Forget)
449    
450    checkpoint57f_post
451    o add parameter "baseTime" = model base time = time at iteration zero
452      new function DIFF_BASE_MULTIPLE (replace DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE) to
453      account for baseTime shift
454    o move Coriolis arrays from PARAMS.h to GRID.h
455    checkpoint57f_pre
456    
457    o mnc-ifying the seaice package
458    o introduced an alternative length scale calculation for use in the limiting
459      maximum viscosity (off by default, see mom_vi_hdissip.F for details)
460    o S/R ptracers_calc_diff: argument list bug for CALL KPP_CALC_DIFF_S
461    o added modified Leith scheme with viscosity proportional to grad(Hdiv)
462      as well as grad(vort3).  Made it compatible with both approximate form
463      for the cubed sphere and full form of these gradients.  Added flag
464      useFullLeith to select between approximate and full form.  
465    o add "d0" in getcon.F to reduce differences between compilers/platforms
466      update output.txt of exp. fizhi-gridalt-hs
467    o change port_rand funtion to allow to set the seed.
468    o fix obscure MNC bug involving conversion between reals and integers
469      - it caused no problems with certain (eg. gcc, ifc) compilers but the
470        new version is now more standards-compliant
471    o adjoint-related modifications
472      * gad_dst3_adv_?: to be able to use advscheme=30 in adjoint
473      * gad_calc_rhs: fool adjoint, revert to advscheme=30 in reverse when using 33
474      * mom_vi_hdissip: to be able to use Leith scheme in adjoint
475    
476    checkpoint57e_post
477    o Adding eddy stress controls a la Ferreira et al.
478    checkpoint57e_pre (actually was tagged: eckpoint57e_pre)
479    
480    o fizhi pkg: fix AtoC and CtoA when called with same input & output array
481      update output.txt of exp. fizhi-gridalt-hs
482    o add more "Z" dimensions and associated coordinate vars to MNC
483    o pkg/exf: added twoDigitYear capability for option useExfYearlyFields
484    o parameter calendarDumps: when set, approximate months (30-31 days) and years
485      (360-372 days) for parameters chkPtFreq, pChkPtFreq, taveFreq, SEAICE_taveFreq,
486      KPP_taveFreq, and freq in pkg/diagnostics are converted to exact calendar
487      months and years.  Requires pkg/cal.
488    o diagnostics: add pickup functionality
489      - off by default for backwards compatibility
490      - current version only uses MDSIO -- MNC will be added
491    o allow to use pkg diagnostics for LAND pkg output & Shapiro Tendencies.
492    o pkg/shap_filt: fix for multi-tiles per face (CS-grid with EXCH2)
493    
494    checkpoint57d_post
495    o pkg/thsice used in the ocean: fix tile Pb related to sIceLoad forcing
496    o modify verification/ideal_2D_oce so that it tests the creation of mnc
497      output from the diagnostics package
498    o temporary fix in EXCH2_UV: add a 3rd call to fix the 24.tiles CS-grid set-up
499    o make genmake2 more portable by using ".$FS" instead of ".f" for more
500      of the test compilations (eg. IBM xlf on Mac OSX w/HFS filesys)
501    o add coordinate variables to the MNC output from the diagnostics package
502    o change MNC-flags default value: true when useMNC=TRUE
503    o add a "readgrid_mnc" flag to MNC and give model/src/ini_curvilinear_grid.F
504      the ability (off by default) to read the grid information using MNC
505    o lab_sea: use LSR_ERROR=1.E-12 for testing ; update output.txt
506    o diagnostics: fix a bug (sub-set of levels); keep full precision when averaging
507    o do snap-shot diagnostics at the middle of the time-interval (instead of
508      at the end).
509    o update exp. aim.5l_cs (use default LAND_OPTIONS.h file) and add
510      new test for AIM with thSIce + slab-ocean
511    o cpl_aim+ocn test: update output (optfile & default GMREDI_OPTIONS.h)
512    o move state variable diagnostics to the beginning of the time step ;
513      (note: still needs some work specially for snap-shot diagnostics)
514      duplicate & replace UVELVVEL diagnostics with UV_VEL_C & UV_VEL_Z
515    
516    checkpoint57c_post
517    o Change testing option (-ieee) to get closer agreement between g77 & ifort
518    o generate new output.txt files on faulks with g77 & the new -ieee option
519    checkpoint57c_pre
520    
521    o add "_d 0" in freeze ; change some "FLOAT" to "DFLOAT" and went back (TAF);
522      update output.txt of exp. global_ocean.90x40x15
523    o fix in ini_eos.F (one "_d 0" was missing): now g77 & ifc give much closer
524      results; update global_ocean_pressure & global_ocean.cs32x15 output.txt
525    o add saltFlux(+File) forcing capability with periodicExternalForcing
526    o allow to use pkg diagnostics for GM-Redi & ThSIce output
527    o diagnostics_fill: fill in up to sNx+1 or sNy+1 (if U,V or Z pt) for mnc.
528    o improvements for the MNC output from DIAGNOSTICS:
529      - correct handling of the unlimitied dimension
530      - all dims now have associated coordinate variables
531      - variables located at U, V, and Corner ("Z") points are now written
532        with the correct horzontal dimensions (eg. 'Xp1', 'Yp1') so that
533        *all* data points are output
534    o added seaice_summary.F and removed obsolete ALLOW_SEAICE's from pkg/seaice
535    o added pkg/seaice/seaice_monitor.F
536    o mdsio_readfield.F can now read files visible only to master MPI process.
537    o pkg/seaice: some test code for ice-modified ocean stress
538    o exf_getffields interpolation defaults to bilinear for all scalar forcing
539      fields (remains bicubic for wind velocity and stress).  This avoids, e.g.,
540      spurious negative numbers for precipitation and humidity.  Will cause
541      some small numerical differences for integrations using pkg/exf/exf_interp.F.
542    o pkg/ctrl/
543      * Add ctrlvec diagnostics in pack/unpack for nondimensional I/O
544        May be enabled via doPackDiag
545      *  introduce z-scaling of
546         + gradient (doZscalePack) and
547         + control (doZscaleUnpack)
548    o pkg/mdsio/
549      * enable useSingleCpuIO for state estimation (ctrl_pack/unpack) mdsio_gl.F
550      * N.B.: leave tiled I/O for tapelev (i.e. mds...vector)
551    
552    checkpoint57b_post
553    o simplify options in diagnostics_fill arguments (remove weird combinations)
554    o fix MNC coordinate variables so that they now contain per-face index
555      values (instead of xC,xG,yC,yG values) when run with EXCH2 since, in
556      general, EXCH2 grids are only aligned to a "local" coordinate system
557    o test diagnostics pkg in dic_example (no output) and ideal_2D_oce (with ouput)
558    o Implement instantaneous output within pkg diagnostics:
559      setting a negative frequency in data.diagnostics produces
560     "snap-shot" output (as opposed to time-average if freq > 0)
561    o move out off EQUIVALENCE all diagnostics that fizhi does not use ;
562      NOTE: change ptracer diagnostics name: use 2 characters to work with
563            more than 9 tracers. Add also diagnostics of advect & diffus flux.
564    o more CF compliance: convert all MNC 'iter' variables to 'T' so that it
565      becomes the coordinate variable for the 'T' dimension
566    o add CF-style coordinate variables to MNC
567      - just a first cut:  numbers are meaningless on the cubesphere and
568        missing along the T axis but otherwise it works!
569    o add surface flux diagnostics: TAUX, TAUY, TFLUX, TRELAX, TICE, SFLUX, SRELAX
570    o pkg/thSIce: read initial state from 6 files ; allow monitor to use MNC.
571    o add diagnostics of advective & diffusive flux for T & S (pTracers coming soon)
572      this is based directly on what the model compute, so that the content of
573      each diagnostics might be affected by switching options (e.g., implicitDiffusion)
574    o small changes for diagnostics (gad_biharm_?.F, arguments of S/R impldiff.F)
575    o clean up build options files for SunOS, in particular
576      - remove -traditional from xmakedepend
577      - change -xarch=v9 to -xarch=native for f77
578      - restore use of make (not gmake)
579      - add CC=gcc if using g77
580    o changes per discussion of AM, JMC, & EH3 today:
581      - move redundant "grid" variables out of "state" -- in preparation of
582        creating proper CF-style coordinate variables and in recognition
583        that any/all grid variables can be easily copied (eg. w/NCO) from
584        the grid files into any of the other NetCDF files
585      - *always* output grid variables with MDSIO (this will eventually be
586        changed)
587      - output MNC grid file if useMNC is true
588    o every instance of _END_MASTER() has been found and replaced with
589      _END_MASTER( myThid ) in order to satisfy certain picky Sun
590      preprocessors
591    o re-arrange diagnostics pkg initialisation:
592     - allow each package to extend the available diagnostics list
593     - add some checking and fix small problems (multi-threaded, ...)
594     - new S/R diagnostics_fill (replace fill_diagnostics):
595       look through the short list of active diag. (instead of the long list)
596       create function DIAGNOSTICS_IS_ON to tell if a diagnostics is active
597    
598    checkpoint57a_post
599    o this set of changes restores TAMC compatibility
600      tested for global_ocean.90x40x15 adjoint on trough
601      (what a pain)
602    
603    checkpoint57a_pre
604    o some modifs in tools/build_options for sunos
605    o call ctrl_pack for ctrl at end for optimcycle=0
606    
607    checkpoint57
608    o add horizontal bi-harmonic viscosity for vertical velocity
609      - new parameter viscA4W (defaults to viscA4)
610      - affects only non-hydrostatic code
611      - to be done: no-slip lateral boundary conditions
612    o switch back to "sflux = sflux - runoff" in exf_getforcing.F
613    o implement Implicit Vertical advection for pTracers
614    o depth convergence accelerator: replace deltaTtracer by dTtracerLev(k)
615      (implemented also for implicit vertical diffusion & advection)
616    o OBCS: extend application of tracer open boundary conditions
617      to a strip beyond the boundary of width Olx/Oly
618    o add call monitor to TAF set of required calls (flow directives)
619      and include in natl_box_adjoint
620    o untangle a few ifdefs related to cost, ctrl, autodiff
621      untangel a few ALLOW_ECCO_OPTIMIZATION
622    o Apply Cooper & Haines representative estimates also at sub-surface (k=Nr)
623      (theta2, salt2 in ecco_cost_weights)
624    
625    checkpoint56c_post
626    o OBCS as control variables
627      - update ctrl_ad_diff.list, obcs_ad_diff.list
628      - remove balance of obcs controls from default
629      - fix index bug nobcs in ctrl_init
630      - fix dummy fields filen in ctrl_pack
631      - add dummy weights for obcs
632    o lsopt: comment out fort.94 output
633    o optim:
634      - remove unnecessary header files
635      - adjusted namelists
636      - add xerbla.F to Makefile
637    o exf:
638      - multiple modifications of exf_check_range
639      - unit change in exf_init_runoff from [m/year] to [m/s]
640    o mdsio:
641      - i/o-vector change debugLevel from debLevA to debLevB
642    
643    checkpoint56b_post
644    o collect all ptracers output in an new routine (PTRACERS_OUTPUT) that
645      is called from DO_THE_MODEL_IO
646      - rename PTRACERS_STATV_WRITE to PTRACERS_WRITE_TIMEAVE
647      - introduce new parameter PTRACERS_dumpFreq (defaults to dumpFreq)
648      - clean up PTRACERS_WRITE_TIMEAVE a little
649    o add another verification experiment that tests both the cfc-pkg and
650      the gchem-pkg with GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING undefined, that is with
651      reactive tendencies treated inline with regular timestepping
652    o testreport previously did a lousy job of comparing small numbers, so
653      we (Ed and Martin) changed the  way the cut-off of 1.e-12 is
654      implemented in the little c-progam tmp_cmpnum.c which is embedded in
655      testreport.
656    o ptracers_monitor: bug fix for MPI
657    
658    checkpoint56a_post
659    o GCHEM: finish reorganizating the package
660      - forward_step calls GCHEM_CALC_TENDENDY, which computes gchemTendency
661        (introduces another 3D-array for each passive tracer, but only if
662        GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING is undefined. For GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING
663        gchemTendency is not needed because the timestep is done separately)
664      - gchemTendency is added to gPtr in GCHEM_ADD_TENDENCY
665      - GCHEM is now---more or less cleanly---separate from PTRACERS
666      - to bo done: handling of surfaceForcingPtr that is needed for KPP not
667        so clear to me how that should be done in a general way.
668    o CFC: improve formatting of output in CFC_ATMOS
669    o PTRACERS:
670      - rename GCHEM_MONITOR to PTRACERS_MONITOR and call it from MONITOR, so
671        that ALL experiments with ptracers enable can be checked. This makes
672        GCHEM_MONITOR obsolete.
673      - include a runtime parameter PTRACERS_monitorFreq that defaults to
674        monitorFreq
675      - set default PTRACERS_write_mdsio to false if PTRACERS_write_mnc is true
676    o add PTRACERS (PTR0[1-5]) to testreport output
677    o exf_check_range:
678      * default changed to .TRUE.
679      * will check values for niter0 if debLevA, every timestep if debLevB
680      * STOP in exf_check_range if 'out of range'
681      * range chosen generous to allow for potential extema
682      TBD: a version with stricter range
683           permitted range would be runtime parameters
684    o GMredi:
685      - fix ldd97 slope limit ; extend valid domain of Psi-Bolus ;
686      - change S/R GRAD_SIGMA to be valid in the overlap on CS-grid.
687      - change the default GMREDI_OPTIONS.h: compile everything except Visbeck
688    o GCHEM:
689      - move call to GCHEM_FORCING_SEP, so that it is now called before
690        the blocking exchanges to avoid computing halos in GCHEM_FORCING_SEP
691      - introduced a useGCHEM runtime flag and applied it everywhere.
692      - renamed PTRACERS_SEPARATE_FORCING to GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING;
693        this flag is now only visible within GCHEM-pkg routines.
694      - moved gchem_forcing_int temporarily into ptracers_forcing, this will
695        be replaced by a 3D array that is computed before thermodynamics; for
696        this, the tracer ID iTracer had to be included into the parameter list
697        of ptracers_forcing
698      - set up forward_step to call gchem_forcing, that will replace
699        gchem_forcing_int in ptracers_forcing
700      - cleaning up
701    o small cleaning of exch2: remove files that are also in eesupp/src
702    
703    checkpoint56
704    o AIM: read land-Fraction earlier (from ini-fixed) and monitor land at nIter0
705    o mnc: cleanup "full" files--fixes out-of-memory problem
706    o ECCO-GODAE
707      * model/, pkg/, code/, input/ now complete w.r.t. ECCO-GODAE production setup
708      * fully merged and updated from SIO code
709        windstress sign change affects
710        - exf_inscal_[u/v]stress
711        - sign of xx_tau[u/v] adjustments
712        - signs in cost_scat
713      * ctrl_get_gen: avoid update of tau[u/v] for first few days
714      * natl_box_adjoint updated and compressed
715      * 2-level checkpoint switch added
716        (tested in EXP. 1 of natl_box_adjoint)
717      * new switch doInitXX to avoid init. of xx_... in optimcycle=0
718    o SVD
719      * first complete, non-hacked version for SVD calculations
720      * all interfaces clean w.r.t to handling of xx_..., adxx_..., g_xx_...
721        performed via direct access files admtlm_vector.it????
722        (via ctrl_[un]pack)
723      * optimcycle is used for ARPACK iteration counter
724        (note: adxx_... is iterated, rather than xx_...; latter is constant!)
725      * EV problem ok w.r.t. L2-norm in tangent space; need to check other norms
726        and add linear transforms where necessary
727      * controls are initial/final SST, SSS (can be extended; need to check
728        ctrl_set_[un]pack_xyz.F according to ctrl_set_[un]pack_xy.F
729    o mdsio: filename info to both stderr, stdout
730    o exf: exf_inscal_runoff: separated default conversion [m/year] -> [m/sec]
731      from sign change
732    
733    checkpoint55j_post
734    o isolate dissipation tendency (allow to keep it out off AB) in V.I form.
735      affects (truncation level) output.txt of global_ocean.cs32x15(&.thsice)
736    o add consistent build directories and .cvsignore files to verification
737    o added viscA4GridMin and viscA4GridMax for more control on biharmonic viscosity
738    o make all subroutines 30 or less characters in length for certain older
739      compilers to work (a thorough search only turns up two routines in
740      pkg/ptracers)
741    o allow (vecinv only) a different horiz. viscosity for Divergence and Vorticity;
742      affects (truncation level) output.txt of global_ocean.cs32x15(&.thsice)
743    
744    checkpoint55i_post
745    o change arrays for total vertical diffusivity (2.D if explicit,
746      3.D if implicit) ; each ptracer uses its own background value.
747    o added mnc/NetCDF output capability to ocn_compon_interf
748      - added bits to verification/cpl_aim+ocn so that it can run on
749        ITRDA and other clusters without the mpirun "-wd" option
750    o fixed wayward endif in mom_fluxform.F that messed up cyclindrical
751      configuration
752    o give MNC the ability to create additional files rather than
753      exceeding a specified file size limit "MNC_MAX_FILESIZE"
754      - the default is just less than 2GB which is a practical limit
755        on many systems
756    o Compute the non-local term using either KPP vertical diffusivity (=default)
757       or the total vertical diffusivity (when KPP_ghatUseTotalDiffus=T)
758    
759    checkpoint55h_post
760    o add verification test "vermix"
761    o remove all the *_ioinc flags and replace with the single global
762      outputTypesInclusive flag
763    o allow to set a vertical profile of vertical diffusivity for T & S
764    o call PACKAGE_BOOT & PACKAGES_READPARMS just after INI_PARMS
765    o useMNC moved from data.mnc to data.pkg
766    
767    checkpoint55g_post
768    o Renaming carbon AD experiments to comply with testreport conventions
769    o Updating adjoint of Held-Suarez hs94.1x64x5
770    o Fixing directives for non-ECCO forward_step, after ECCO directives
771      have been fixed to avoid recomp. of do_oceanic_phys
772      Works well for global_ocean.90x40x15,
773      but recomp. issue remains for carbon
774    o Updating adjoint output for natl_box_adjoint after
775      pkg/ecco has been modified (see taga c55d_post)
776    
777    checkpoint55f_post
778    o rename to timeave_init_fixed
779    
780    checkpoint55e_post
781    o some delicate re-shuffle of store directives to avoid one
782      extra call of do_oceanic_physics
783      affects ecco_the_main_loop.F, do_oceanic_physics.F
784      checkpoint_lev1_directives.h
785    o NB: this may break global_ocean adjoint temporarily,
786      but it is clear how to fix it. Will do later, need this now.
787    
788    checkpoint55d_post
789    o ECCO specific cost function terms (up-to-date with 1x1 runs)
790    o ecco_cost_weights is modified to 1x1 runs
791    o modifs to allow observations to be read in as
792      single file or yearly files
793    o enable to read exf forcing fields as either
794      single file or yearly files (flag useExfYearlyFields)
795    checkpoint55d_pre
796    
797    o switch between 2-level and 3-level checkpointing
798    o add ability of MNC to write local and "partial" (eg. 2D slices where
799      the full 3D field is never actually stored) arrays to NetCDF files
800      with the correct (that is, the complete multi-dimensional) set of
801      array indicies
802      - used in mom_vecinv() to write the diagFreq output
803      - tested (demonstrated) in verification/aim.5l_cs
804    o further mnc-ification
805      - add verification/lab_sea to the list with mnc setups
806      - fix undefined mnc v-names in cd_code
807      - add kpp to mnc output (both snapshot and timeave)
808    o non-hydrostatic code
809      - added horizontal viscosity parameter viscAhW for w, that replaces viscAh
810        in calc_gw.F
811      - defaults to viscAh
812      - this is useful, when I want to use viscAh=0 (e.g., only biharmonic
813        friction or Leith) in non-hydrostatic mode, as long as there is
814        no biharmonic friction and/or Leigth or equivalent for vertical velocity.
815    o pkg/cost
816      extend simple cost functions to treat time mean quantities
817      (T,U,V) via cost_accumulate_state from cost_tile
818    o multidimAdvection on CS-grid: implement the full 3 pass ; overlap needs to
819        be 2 times larger than the minimum size the advection scheme requires.
820        now get a perfect conservation of salt in advect_cs test-exp (updated)
821    o GGL90 (Gaspar's TKE mixed layer)
822      - add horizontal diffusion of TKE, requires exchanges in
823        do_fields_blocking_exchanges, horizontal diffusivity is zero by
824        default. In OPA there is no horizontal diffusion of TKE but the
825        mixing coefficients are computed from a horizontal average of TKE of
826        6 points or so. I think that diffusion has a little more physical
827        justification.
828      - clean up ggl90_calc in the hope of reducing memory usage (this hope
829        was in vain)
830      - mask tke-variable in ggl90_init
831    o fix mask Pb in multidimAdvection on CS-grid (still a small Pb with ipass)
832    o fix biharmonic diffusion on CS-grid.
833    o more obcs stuff
834      - added obcs_external_fields_load as an alternative to the EXF-pkg option
835        for reading boundary values. This routine is called from
836        obcs_prescribe_read
837      - updated obcs_check
838      - changed sponge layer relaxation parameter units for days to seconds
839      - turned off sponge layer by default
840      - changed argument list of OBCS_CALC to myTime+deltaTclock
841      - fixed about 35 bugs in obcs_external_fields_load
842    
843    checkpoint55c_post
844    o obcs stuff
845      - new runtime flags useOBCSprescribe, useOBCSbalance
846      - re-arranged obcs_calc
847      - moved exf_getobcs to obcs_prescibe_read
848        obcs_prescibe_read is called after ORLANSKI stuff
849        and independent of it (executable can contain all).
850      - updated obcs_check
851      - added exchanges for U,V,gU,gV for useOBCSprescribe=.TRUE.
852        These may be necessary only if tangential velocities are
853        prescribed at OB, not sure, needs testing.
854    o make the MNC_CW_ADD_VATTR_* subroutines all take scalar arguments
855      which simplifies the calls and passes the ifc check-bounds test
856    
857    checkpoint55b_post
858    o add a 2D scalar, Z location, exchange_2 routine.
859    o EXCH_UV for CS-grid: add one u,v in the corner-halo region, allows
860      to compute vorticity on a wider stencil [e.g., vort3(0,1)&(1,0)]
861      affects advect_cs results (for the wrong reason): update output.txt
862    o use a more standard discretization for biharmonic viscosity ;
863     (original version still available with #define MOM_VI_ORIGINAL_VISCA4 )
864      affects results of dome set-up: update output.txt
865    o fix gad_advection.F (CubedSphere part), back to version 1.23
866    o fix bug in mom_vi_del2uv.F (CubedSphere part).
867    
868    checkpoint55a_post
869    o merged code to
870      * prescribe/read time-dependent open boundaries
871        (works in conjunction with exf, cal)
872      * sponge layer code for open boundaries
873      * each boundary N/S/E/W now has its own CPP option
874        (healthy for the adjoint)
875    
876    checkpoint55
877    o up-to-date adjoint of previous breaks
878      - natl_box_adjoint: problem for exp 12, 13: cost = 0. needs fix
879      - global_ocean_ebm: adjoint still needs fix (TLM ok)
880      - global_ocean.90x40x15: extended GMREDI_OPTIONS.h
881      - carbon: * remove tr1-related adjoint verification
882                * add ptracer as control variable
883    o remove all tr1-related code (ALLOW_PASSIVE_TRACER)
884      (adjoint stuff still has some tr1 'names', but all use ptracer arrays)
885    
886    checkpoint54f_post
887    o in verification/carbin/ remove experiment related to
888      ALLOW_PASSIVE_TRACER (array tr1 etc)
889      code_ad/ input_ad/ results_ad
890    
891    o add two new packages
892      - ggl90, TKE-model of Gaspar et al. (1990), Blanke+Delecluse (1993)
893        + subject to optimization (memory)
894      - opps, OPPS (ocean penetrative plume scheme) of Paluszkiewicz+Romea (1997)
895        + subject to reordering (many GOTOs in the original code)
896        + so far opps is called for every (i,j) point, and then operates in
897          the vertical; one may want to reorder the scheme in order operate in
898          horizontal slabs at the cost of (a lot of) memory, at least ten new 3D
899          fields)
900    o overhaul of IO so that we now have flags for MDSIO and/or MNC
901      - all verification tests compile and run with linux_ia32_g77
902      - defaults are compatible with current input files--nothing
903        should change if you were not previously using MNC
904      - MNC output has been added in numerous places (eg. timeave)
905        but there are still a few writes not yet do-able with MNC
906        (this is in progress)
907      - flags now allow for either/or/both use of MDSIO and MNC and
908        documentation will soon follow
909      - numerous small formatting cleanups for ProTeX
910    o add version info (via BUILD_INFO.h) to MNC and stdout
911    
912    checkpoint54e_post
913    o add two new packages
914      - pp81 (Packanowski and Philander, 1981), Richardson number and
915        stratification dependent mixing
916      - my82 (Mellor and Yamada, 1982) level 2 turbulence closure scheme
917      - these scheme operate in a similar manner as KPP (without ghat, of
918        course), however there is only one diffusivity that is used for both
919        temperature and salinity (and passive tracers)ç
920    o add offline package
921    o add "verification/dic_example" which contains a dic-gchem-ptracer setup
922      provided by Stephanie Dutkiewicz
923    o genmake2: add ability to search for C compilers and cleanup test output
924      - fixes recent SX-6 problems and should help with others (eg. HP-UX)
925    
926    checkpoint54d_post
927    o data.diagnostics: if levels() is unspecified then ALL levels are diagnosed
928    o bug fix in pkg/cal/cal_addtime.F for TheCalendar='model' day count is wrong,
929      leading to additional shift by 5 days each year of integration
930       (i.e. leading to considerable offset over the years)
931    o update global_ocean.cs32x15/thsice: use z* + RealFW + staggerTimeStep
932    o start with no AB and no initial filtering (staggerTimeStep):
933      change the results of test-exp: hs94.128x64x5, hs94.1x64x5 & hs94.cs-32x32x5
934    o move ocean specific S/R calls from forward_step.F to do_oceanic_phys.F
935      (external loading & cpl import/export stay in forward_step.F)
936    o update coupling interface to work with new staggerTimeStep
937    o change MDSIO ptracers_pickup.
938    o fix a bug in Flux deriv. vs Ts (pkg/aim_v23/phy_suflux_sice.F);
939    o genmake2 fixes so netcdf now works on halem ("osf1_alpha_*")
940    o bugs fixed in kpp_calc.F (ustarY) and external_forcing.F (Qsw & Partial-cell)
941    
942    checkpoint54c_post
943    o replace surfaceTendency U,V,S,T,Tice,Ptr by surfaceForcing U,V,S,T,Tice,Ptr
944      this affects (truncation error) output.txt of test-exp:
945       global_ocean_ebm,_pressure,.cs32x15(&.thsice), lab_sea & natl_box
946    o pkg/kpp: replace pMask by maskC to reduce memory size (one 3.D array)
947    o change Qnet to always be the net heat flux, (+upward).
948      affects (truncation error) output of natl_box exp.: updated
949    o define the max number of passive tracers in PTRACERS_SIZE.h
950    o start to test mnc routinely in exp0
951    o add sea-ice loading (sIceLoad) as a new forcing field.
952    
953    checkpoint54b_post
954    o add testreport "-j JOBS" option for parallel builds (tested and pretty
955       impressive on Altix and Opteron systems)
956    o diagnostics can now write NetCDF files through the mnc package
957    o staggerTimeStep & NLFS: update pkg aim_v23 & thsice; update aim.5l_cs output
958    o staggerTimeStep & multi-Dim-Advec: Exch(U,V) added
959    o staggerTimeStep & NLFS: rescale T & S surface tendencies.
960      affects (truncation error) output of lab_sea & natl_box exp.: updated
961    o change pickup _cd & _ptracers (old pickup restart: usePickupBeforeC54=.T.)
962    
963    checkpoint54a_post
964    o re-write staggerTimeStep: step fwd U,V and then T,S (reverse the order).
965    o change pickup file (to restart from old pickup, set usePickupBeforeC54=.T.)
966    o get a perfect restart when using RealFreshWaterFlux + NLFS (not finished)
967    o update output of all exp. that use staggerTimeStep (except hs94.cs & 2D)
968      + internal_wave (shift in writing cg2d_ini_res)
969    checkpoint54a_pre
970    
971    o require forcing_In_AB=.FALSE. and remove surfaceTendencyTice from pkg/seaice
972      - modified verification/lab_sea and natl_box_adjoint accordingly
973    
974    checkpoint54
975    checkpoint53g_post
976    o prepare splitting of thermodynamics: store convect.counter in common block
977    o store d.etaH/dt (instead of Div.hV) in common ; affects (truncation error)
978      output of: global_ocean.cs32x15, global_ocean_pressure & internal_wave
979    o cnh's modifs to gad_advection.F for cube-sphere multi-dim advection
980    o new parameter "nShapS": allow to treat differently S from T (nShapT)
981    o separate Vert.Advec.Scheme from horizontal Advec.Scheme (T & S)
982    o restore adjointability
983    
984    checkpoint53f_post
985    o modifications that affect AIM experiment results (update output.txt):
986      - no advection of S at top interface Nr (pkg/generic_advdiff)
987      - air surf. temp: use lower value between T0 & T1 (phy_suflux_prep.F)
988    o AIM pkg:
989      - include stability function into surf.Flux derivative relative to Tsurf
990      - calculate clear-sky radiation & surface temp. change (for diagnostics)
991    
992    checkpoint53e_post
993    o merged cylindrical coord configuration
994    o added rotating_tank experiment
995    checkpoint53e_pre
996    
997    checkpoint53d_post
998    o faulks upgraded: re-generate output.txt that have changed:
999       global_ocean.cs32x15(.thsice), global_ocean_ebm, lab_sea, natl_box
1000    o Added Bryan and Lewis, 1979, vertical diffusivity profile
1001    o pkg/land: fix problem in land_impl_temp.F when Ts arround freezing.
1002    o added Sadourny discretization of Coriolis
1003      - moved some PARAMETERS from mom_*_coriolis.F to PARAMS.h
1004      - re-enabled use of omega3 (useAbsVorticity)
1005    o added Leith (Phys. Fluids, 1968, 10, 1409-1416) variable viscosity for
1006      vector-invariant equations
1007      - note: does *NOT* yet use same variable visc. for no-slip BC's.
1008    o recoded the lateral boundary conditions for non-hydrostatic w, this time
1009      hopefully without new bugs
1010      - still to do: biharmonic friction for non-hydrostatic w
1011    o bug fix for mom_*_sidedrag: rA -> rAs,rAw
1012    o regenerated output for global_ocean_ebm (using -ieee)
1013    o fix mom_common/mom_*_sidedrag.F to recover numeric output prior to creation
1014      of mom_common/
1015      - simple re-arrangement of instructions within computing loop
1016    checkpoint53d_pre
1017    
1018    checkpoint53c_post
1019    o new version of coupler for AIM+thSIce and Ocean models
1020     - new fields (SSS,h_MixLayer ...) are exchanged through the coupler
1021     - land: change Evaporation of snow
1022     - aim with thSIce: fix bug in snow-precip.
1023    o changes to calc_gw.F
1024     - bug fix for w^2 term near the bottom boundary
1025     - (hopefully) improve the lateral slip boundary condtions for use with
1026        partial/looped cells
1027      - because the bug fix changes two verification experiments anyway (exp5
1028        and plume on slope), change the lateral boundary condition from half slip
1029        to the value of no_slip_sides
1030    o ebm package wasnt quite up to the parallel task. Fixed that.
1031    o Adjoint of EBM package + verification
1032      * TLM OK
1033      * ADM not sufficient accuracy yet (needs further testing)
1034    
1035    checkpoint53b_post
1036    o Commiting new energy balance model to repository
1037      * package is pkg/ebm
1038      * verif. is verification/global_ocean_ebm
1039      * references are in ebm_driver.F
1040    C      * X. Wang, P. Stone and J. Marotzke, 1999:
1041    C        Global thermohaline circulation. Part I:
1042    C        Sensitivity to atmospheric moisture transport.
1043    C        J. Climate 12(1), 71-82
1044    C      * X. Wang, P. Stone and J. Marotzke, 1999:
1045    C        Global thermohaline circulation. Part II:
1046    C        Sensitivity with interactive transport.
1047    C        J. Climate 12(1), 83-91
1048    C      * M. Nakamura, P. Stone and J. Marotzke, 1994:
1049    C        Destabilization of the thermohaline circulation
1050    C        by atmospheric eddy transports.
1051    C        J. Climate 7(12), 1870-1882
1052    o Will need long integration testing.
1053    checkpoint53b_pre
1054    
1055    o created pkg/mom_common in preparation for variable viscosity code
1056    o renamed and split ini_mnc_io
1057    o pkg/land: only liquid water can diffuse or run-off
1058    o AIM using land: soil wetness availability account for snow
1059    o added printMapIncludesZeros to EEPARMS namelist
1060    
1061    checkpoint53a_post
1062    o restore TAMC compatiility for exf_constants.h
1063      (no usage of _d in .h)
1064    o Additional storing in KPP in an attempt to fix
1065      TAMC problem with adjoint of KPP code.
1066      (no success...)
1067      Identical code works fine with TAF.
1068    o Fixed verification/natl_box_adjoint experiments.
1069      Initial conditions for Experiments 4 and 5 are now
1070      set to "SEAICE_initialHEFF=0", which is more reasonable,
1071      and hence gives results closer to that of Experiment 2.
1072      Experiment 6 requires "SEAICE_initialHEFF=1" and is working once again.
1073    
1074    checkpoint53
1075    o stable checkpoint with up to date adjoint
1076      TLM tests only run for 1st grdchk at the moment. Its unclear if
1077      this is a code problem or a problem with resetting code for g_
1078      variables that is being autogenerated wrong.
1079      Otherwise:
1080       o code is testing well on Linux (P4 and AMD), SGI Alitix and Irix.
1081       o IBM and HPQ tests could not be run because NCAR (IBM) and NCCS (HPQ)
1082         are both still in chaos following their security messes.
1083    
1084    checkpoint52n_post
1085    o various build (mostly genmake2) changes including:
1086      - ability to build/run more easily within Cygwin and MacOS X
1087      - more complicated Makefiles with a stronger dependence on Gnu Make
1088    o pkg/seaice modifications
1089      - added SEAICE_deltaTtherm and SEAICE_deltaTdyn in order to reduce cost
1090        of pkg/seaice.  For time being, SEAICE_deltaTtherm = deltaTtracer
1091        and SEAICE_deltaTdyn must be integer multiple of SEAICE_deltaTtherm
1092      - changed proxy for geostrophic velocity and updated
1093        verification/lab_sea/results/* accordingly
1094      - removed ADI dynamic solver from pkg/seaice
1095      - replaced all occurrences of 1/CSTICE or 1/CSUICE
1096        they caused a segmentation fault under certain circumstances
1097      - removed unused field WATR
1098    o bug fix in exf-package:
1099      -  u/vwind are defined at tracer/pressure points. The values of u/vwindmask
1100         now reflect that.
1101    o small fixes in the cal-package:
1102      - set reference date to first of January for the 'model'-calendar
1103      - failing of cal_CheckDate in cal_FullDate now actually results in a
1104        warning
1105    o small modifications in exf-package to increase flexibility:
1106      - change climtempfreeze from a constant to a runtime parameter that
1107        is specified in data.exf_clim (default = -1.9)
1108      - introduce runtime parameter windstressmax (default = 2.0) that is
1109        specified in data.exf
1110    o fix in pkg/thsice:
1111      - update Evap (Tsf changes) to be consistent with Latent heat flux
1112      - maintain snow precipitation unchanged (even if Tsf >=0).
1113     both affect global_ocean.cs32x15/(.thsice) results ; update output.txt.thsice
1114

1116    o commented out call to cal_GetMonthsRec in swfrac.F and added some comments;
1117      this does not change any of the results, because myIter=0 in swfrac always
1118      lead to jwtype=2 (the default anyway), but the call makes little sense
1119      as a default
1120    o no SHORTWAVE HEATING lost at the bottom; affects lab_sea output; updated
1121    o re-work pkg/thsice interface with ocean & bulk_force pkg to allow
1122      atmospheric model (AIM) to use it ; add a "slab ocean" component.
1123    o pkg/aim_v23 : add interface to call thermodynamic sea-ice (thsice)
1124    o update global_ocean.cs32x15/output (.thsice) after changes in pkg/thsice
1125    o extending useSingleCpuIO option to work with new exch2 I/O format
1126      - old-style, missing-tile I/O is still accessible by defining CPP
1127        option MISSING_TILE_IO in pkg/mdsio/MDSIO_OPTIONS.h
1128    o monitor package can write to NetCDF files and/or STDOUT
1129    o fix re-definition bug in MNC_GRID_INIT_ALL()
1130    o doc/api_reference added
1131      - a framework for building an API Reference Manual using all
1132        the "protex" comments embedded in the code
1133      - see pkg/generic_advdiff, pkg/mnc for examples
1134    o MNC:
1135      - make myThid the last argument for all subroutines
1136      - new default for the grid files: NO halos
1137      - add useMNC and other run-time flags
1138      - separate per-file-group handling of the unlimited dimension
1139      - early initialization of MNC w/ flags read at the eeboot stage
1140        and lookup tables set in initialize_fixed
1141      - write all MNC output to a freshly-created directory
1142    o thermodynamics sea-ice (thsice) is now tested with testreport.
1143    o test exp. advect_cs: use the standard cs32 grid ; update output.
1144    o Added functionality to grdchk:
1145      pick global i,j,k position (or nearest wet) where to perform check.
1146    
1147    checkpoint52l_post
1148    o new land formulation:
1149      a) use ground enthalpy as prognostic variable to ensure exact
1150         energy conservation.
1151      b) account for water temperature and for latent heat of freezing
1152         in all processes (rain, run-off, ground storage)
1153      c) compute surface and ground temperature implicitly.
1154    o aim_v23 modification for new land model:
1155      a) Treat separately land / ocean / sea-ice surface fluxes
1156         to allow implicit computation of land & sea-ice surface temp.
1157      b) add snow precipitation.
1158    checkpoint52l_pre
1159    
1160    o fix problem (when 1 tile is empty) in min/max monitor.
1161    o fix bug in timeAve (u,vZetatave in common block)
1162    o no restoring terms under ice for pkg/seaice
1163    o moved SEAICE_DO_DIAGS to S/R do_the_model_io
1164    o bug fix for pkg/seaice pickups
1165    o change MNC call locations and add coordinate attributes
1166  o mask vorticity at the corner ; affects global_ocean.cs output  o mask vorticity at the corner ; affects global_ocean.cs output
1167  o fix ini_curvilinear_grid ; test CS experiments with mpi  o fix ini_curvilinear_grid ; test CS experiments with mpi
1168  o aim.5l_cs: modify sea-ice fraction input file ; update output  o aim.5l_cs: modify sea-ice fraction input file ; update output
