4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o pkg/ptracers: add second-order moment advection schemes (80 and 81);
8      this uses a dynamically allocated internal state data structure
9      (#define PTRACERS_ALLOW_DYN_STATE in PTRACERS_OPTIONS.h)
10      and requires a fortran 90 compiler
11    
12    checkpoint59q
13    o pkg/mom_vecinv: Add energy & enstrophy conserving scheme (selectVortScheme=3)
14       (from Sadourny, described by Burridge & Haseler, ECMWF Rep.4, 1977)
15    o Refresh tutorial_global_oce_biogeo, notably:
16      - change bathymetry (put back seamounts in ACC, use hFacs)
17      - change EOS (POLY3 --> JMD95Z)
18      - use Bryan-Lewis vertical diffusivity
19      - use multidimensional advection
20      - remove old virtual virtual in dic pkg, now done through ptracer pkg
21      - change a couple of parameters in dic pkg
22    o pkg/ctrl: change formula in adctrl_bound.F and add a parameter to ctrl_map_ini_gen.F
23    o pkg/obcs: change default to OBCSfixTopo = .true.,
24      - set OBCSfixTopo=.false. in exp4/input/data.obcs to reproduce old result
25      - replace "debugMode" with "debugLevel .GE. debLevB"
26    o implementation of TAF directives for gchem,cfc,dic
27    o remove "exp5" (replaced by tutorial_deep_convection).
28    o pkg/obcs: add code to fix topography gradients normal to open boundaries;
29      this requires computing the index fields OB_Jn/Js/Ie/Iw in obcs_readparms;
30      the code can be turned on by setting OBCSfixTopo = .true. in data.obcs
31      --> changes results in exp4, seaice_obcs
32    o tutorial_deep_convection :
33      update the set-up and increase resolution and domain size ; start
34      from pseudo initial conditions = output at t=120mn in order to see
35      something happening when running testreport.
36    o pkg/seaice: add os7mp as an advection scheme
37                  add check for advection schemes
38                  add a flag for restoring T and S underneath sea ice
39    o pkg/my82: add netcdf-support and diagnostics
40    o thsice pkg:
41      - Now hsMax limits snow height by turning it into ice following
42        flooding scheme (and now conserving energy)
43      - Slight rewriting of the formula in thsice_calc_thick.F
44      - Parameter rhowi eliminated to be replaced by floodFac = (rhosw-rhoi)/rhos
45      --> changes results of global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn and global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice
46    
47    checkpoint59p
48    o gchem / dic / cfc :
49      - add useDIC, useCFC , read from "data.gchem" (& hold in GCHEM.h);
50      - add new parameter files: "data.dic" & "data.cfc" ;
51      - various re-arrangement in initialisation & header file ;
52      - fix tutorial_global_oce_biogeo for multi-threaded test.
53    o pkg/dic: test for "pickup_dic" file when restarting ;
54      if no pickup-file, can restart with a re-initialised pH (same as it did
55      before) providing pickupStrictlyMatch is set to False.
56    o change argument list of S/R PTRACERS_WRITE_PICKUP & MYPACKAGE_WRITE_PICKUP
57      + fix call to S/R GGL90_WRITE_PICKUP & DIC_WRITE_PICKUP
58    o add a "warning" (to Error msg file) when an Active Tracer is not using AB-2
59      and staggerTimeStep is off (needed for stability of Internal-wave dynamics).
60    o move out of PARAMS.h & data the last pieces of old-ptracer code: tauTr1ClimRelax,
61     & lambdaTr1ClimRelax ; put those 2 params in PTRACERS_PARAMS.h & data.ptracers
62       (note: not clear to me what lambdaTr1ClimRelax is still used for ...)
63    o pkg/mom_vecinv: - new parameter "selectVortScheme" to select which
64       scheme to use for vorticty-term ;
65     - compute upwindVorticity=T case within mom_vi_u/v_coriolis_c4.F
66       (with default selectVortScheme, return to original discretisation)
67     - remove weird combination (e.g.: upwindVorticity & highOrderVorticity)
68    o pkg/seaice: add a line to the summary to indicate grid type (B/C)
69    o in mom_calc_visc, fix average value of viscAh_W & viscA4_W next to the
70      bottom ; only used with variable horizontal viscosity and non-hydrostatic.
71      also fix diagnostics VISCAHW & VISCA4W.
72    
73    checkpoint59o
74    o dome/code/obcs_calc.F: avoid division by zero (detected using gfortran).
75    o change the loop ordering in most gad_*_adv_x.F to improve vectorization:
76      move a few statemens out the main loop into separate loops
77    o pkg/shelfice:
78      - sort out freshwater flux; convert freshwater fluxes to mass fluxes
79        (kg/m^2/s), does not break tests, because in verification/isomip,
80        rhoConstFresh=rhoConst (by accident)
81      - rearrange computation of tLoc, sLoc, pLoc to make code more efficient
82      - move S/R find_rho_scalar, pkg/ecco/sw_ptmp.F, pkg/ecco/sw_adtg.F into
83        new file model/src/seawater.F, so that they are available for all pkgs.
84      - convert potential temperature into in-situ temperature. This changes the
85        isomip tests => update tests
86    o add a flag writePickupAtEnd (default=true) to be able to suppress
87      writing a pickup at the last timestep
88    o tools/mpack-1.6 :
89      - disable automake (not working) and autoconf (not needed).
90      - update to version 1.6.4 which fix MD5 code on some 64 bits platforms
91        also cleaner with much less compilation warnings.
92    o pkg/profiles:
93      rename profiles_interp_mean_genericgrid as profiles_interp_mean_gg
94      (for "less than 32 characters name" compiler requirement)
95    o pkg/obcs and pkg/exf: added capability to specify seaice open boundary
96      conditions that have a different sampling frequency than S/T/U/V obcs
97    o pkg/diagnostics (stats-diags):
98      - fix global Min/Max in case 1 processor get only empty tiles
99    o genmake2: replace (4 times)
100         make genmake_tc_1.o >> genmake_warnings 2>&1
101      with
102         COMM="$CC $CFLAGS -c genmake_tc_1.c"
103         echo $COMM >> genmake_warnings
104         $COMM >> genmake_warnings 2>&1
105      to make genmake2 always see the value of CC as specified in the optfile.
106    o generic_advdiff: - prather advection scheme (SOM) coded for CS-grid.
107      - add diagnostics for 1srt & 2nd Order moments and sub-grid variance.
108      - modify verification advect_cs test to test SOM-advection on CS-grid.
109    o pkg/ctrl:
110      - Rewrite of ctrl_map_ini_ecco.F,
111        introducing a generic routine (ctrl_map_ini_gen.F).
112      - Modification of ctrl_bound/adctrl_bound handling control vector bounds.
113    
114    checkpoint59n
115    o pkg/diagnostics: for large number of diagnostics, store diagnostic mate
116      number in dedicate array "hdiag":
117      - new version of S/R DIAGNOSTICS_ADD2LIST : DIAGNOSTICS_ADDTOLIST
118        with 1 more argument (mate number); modify old version DIAGNOSTICS_ADD2LIST.
119      - many small changes (integer format) for large number of diagnostics
120      - start to use DIAGNOSTICS_ADDTOLIST (necessary for diagnostics with
121        a counter mate) in pkg diagnostics, ptracers, thsice & aim_v23.
122    o add parameter rotateGrid and Euler angles EulerPhi/Theta/Psi. For
123      usingSphericalGrid, this allows to define the rotated grid coordinates
124      via phiMin/thetaMin/dxSpacing/dySpacing, etc., but then re-compute the
125      geographical coordinates according to the inverse of the rotation defined
126      by the Euler angles, so that Coriolis parameter and online-interpolation by
127      exf works with the geographical coordinates on XC/YC/XG/YG.
128      Naturally, this feature does not work with all packages, so some
129      combinations are prohibited in config_summary (flt, flt_zonal, ecco,
130      profiles), because there the coordinates are assumed to be regular
131      spherical grid coordinates.
132    o pkg/gmredi,ctrl,ecco,autodiff,grdchk and model/src,inc:
133      - introduce isopycnal diffusion coefficient control.
134    o tools/adjoint_options:
135      - additional control vector components.
136    o pkg/mnc: have mnc create marginally meaning full coordinate variables
137      (that is the grid indices) if usingCurvilinearGrid and NOT EXCH2
138    o pkg/mypackage:
139      - add example of read/write pickup for state-var ;
140      - add entry points to the main code for state-vars diags & write-pickup.
141    o pkg/exf: rewrite of exf_getffieldrec.F to properly deal with year
142      transitions for useExfYearlyFields
143      - add new subroutine that determines the file to read from for
144        use*YearlyFields = .TRUE. and .FALSE.
145      - add a verification experiment to global_with_exf that tests
146        useExfYearlyFields with USE_EXF_INTERPOLATION defined
147    o pkg/obcs/exf: add useOBCSYearlyFields (=.FALSE.) to obcs with exf in
148      analogy to useExfYearlyFields; rearrange obcs_prescribe_read: two new
149      subroutines (which could be generated from a template, because they are
150      almost identical), for now they are included in obcs_prescribe_read.F for
151      simplicity
152    o pkg/exf:
153      - add a little more diagnostic to exf_interp_read (in analogy to
154        mds_read_field, can be turned off with debugLevel < debugLevA=1)
155      - improve vectorizability of exf_interp for TARGET_NEC_SX, makes code
156        ugly but fast by unrolling short inner loops, inserting a unroll=8
157        directive in routine lagran, and splitting a loop and making do while the
158        outermost loop (the latter requires the intoduction of index arrays)
159    o pkg/obcs: replace obcs_apply_area/heff/hsalt/hsnow with obcs_apply_seaice
160    o pkg/seaice: moved DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE from seaice_model to seaice_dynsolver
161      http://forge.csail.mit.edu/pipermail/mitgcm-devel/2008-January/003173.html
162    o verification/seaice_obcs: updated for restart test and latest options
163    o pkg/seaice: add a new flag SEAICEuseTEM to use a slightly different
164      ice rheology (so-called truncated ellipse, that gets rid of tensile stress);
165      for now this is only available for the C-grid code and also within
166      #ifdef SEAICE_ALLOW_TEM, because this option may slow down the EVP code
167    
168    checkpoint59m
169    o pkg/seaice: use different time constant for melting (SEAICE_gamma_t)
170      and freezing (SEAICE_gamma_t_frz) ice due to mixed layer temperature
171    o gad_som : fix flux output (& diagnostics) to have same units as other  
172      advection scheme fluxes (was previously multiplied by deltaT).  
173    o added verification/seaice_obcs both to test seaice open boundaries
174      and to provide an example matlab scrpt for generating them
175    o added verification/lab_sea/input.salt_plume for testing pkg/salt_plume
176    o pkg/salt_plume: clean up salt_plume_frac.F to
177      remove redundancy in PlumeMethod 1 and 4
178    o pkg/kpp: added saltplume diagnostics
179    o pkg/obcs and pkg/seaice:
180      - do not set uice and vice to zero when OB*icefile are unspecified
181      - OBCS_SEAICE_AVOID_CONVERGENCE is undefined by default
182      - moved seaice tracer obcs after call to seaice_growth
183    o pkg/salt_plume: added various options for salt plume depth
184      criterion and for vertical distribution of the salt
185    
186    checkpoint59l
187    o pkg/ptracers: new version of ptracers pickup:
188      read meta file and write only fields which are needed to restart.
189      ( same logic as main pickup file ; also using pickupStrictlyMatch )
190    o pkg/seaice:
191      - add timescale for melting due to warm mixed layer as a means of
192        setting SEAICE_availHeatFrac more conveniently
193      - add a CPP-flag/runtime parameter check for flooding algorithm
194      - reformulated availHeat in seaice_growth.F to be independent of AREA
195    o change units attribute of EmPmR netcdf variables to kg/m^2/s to reflect recent
196      unit changes
197    o pkg/obcs: added OBCS_SEAICE_AVOID_CONVERGENCE constraint
198    o cg2d.F: add 3 compiler directives that speed up this routine by 30% on a NEC
199      SX vector computer.
200    o pkg/seaice:
201      - removed SEAICE_FFIELDS.h and seaice_get_forcing.F
202        seaice forcing fields can now be read only through pkg/exf
203      - removed some unused halos
204    o no longer write pickup from THE_MODEL_MAIN but always from FORWARD_STEP
205    o pkg/exf: added useRelativeWind EXF_PARAM.h option for subtracting U/VVEL
206      or U/VICE from U/VWIND before computing U/VSTRESS
207    
208    checkpoint59k
209    o pkg/seaice: ICE2WATR=SEAICE_rhoIce/rhoConst for consistency between
210      dynamics and thermodynamics. Set ICE2WATR=0.92 to reproduce older results.
211    o fix un-initialised variable problem (in mom_vecinv & shap_filt):
212      all experiments pass when compile with un-initialised var. checking option.
213    o added pkg/salt_plume
214    o script to test restart (for now, in MITgcm_contrib/jmc_script)
215    o pkg/seaice: new read/write pickup version.
216      read meta file and write only fields which are needed to restart.
217      ( same logic as main pickup file ; also using pickupStrictlyMatch )
218    o pkg/seaice: fix bug in seaice_ocean_stress (call of seaice_calc_strainrates)
219    o lab_sea.hb87: modify the domain & update output.hb87.txt :
220      lat-long grid & no-slip BC in seaice-dynamics produce different sigma12
221      at j=1 & j=Ny+1 : this case is not treated correctly in the restart
222      process. Fixed here by closing the domain at the Northern boundary.
223    o pkg/rw: cleaning-up: call directly new MDSIO S/R MDS_READ/WRITE_FIELD.
224    o pkg/mdsio: add new arguments to MDS_READ/WRITE_FIELD for reading/writing
225      a set of consecutive levels in/from a 3-D array.
226    o pkg/ptracers:
227      use a 2 characters string ioLabel to identify tracer (if more than 99 tracers).
228      to-do: fix pkg/diagnostics when large number of diagnostics are defined.
229    
230    checkpoint59j
231    o in pkgs: dic, obcs, offline, rbcs:
232      standard way to compute coeff. for time interpolation between 2 time reccords
233      which retains full precision (& make results less dependent on compiler).
234      update output of exp: tutorial_cfc_offline & tutorial_global_oce_biogeo.
235    o pkg/cfc: if compiled with exf and seaice, cfc now can use fields from those
236      packages instead of reading ice cover and wind speed separately
237    o split PTRACERS.h in 2 header files: PTRACERS_FIELDS.h & PTRACERS_PARAMS.h
238     (keep a temporary version of PTRACERS.h in verification/OpenAD/code_ad_openad
239      to allow to compile customized code before the update)
240    o cleaning-up:
241      - fix CPP instruction syntax in pkg/obcs
242      - replace (some) call to MDSIO S/R with call to RW interface S/R ; and
243        add #ifdef ALLOW_MDSIO elsewhere (allows to compile without pkg/mdsio)
244      - fix some threads issue in IO parts.
245    o pkg/dic:
246      - add tons of "_d 0" (--> much better testreports !)
247       and then update outputs of tutorial_global_oce_biogeo
248    o pkg/mom_fluxform:
249      add a special version of momentum advection intended to conserve momentum
250      next to a bathymetry step or a coastline edge. (default = off = #undef)
251    o new read/write pickup version:
252      - for now, only implemented for main (mdsio) pickup file.
253      - write out only what is needed to restart; merge pickup_nh , pickup_ph
254        and main pickup together.
255      - read meta file; read only what is needed to restart; stop if a field
256        is missing (if pickupStrictlyMatch=T, = the default) or try to restart
257        if it make sense (even if the restart is not perfect).
258      - if no meta file, assume that pickup to read corresponds exactly to
259        a pickup that would currently be written.
260      - read pickup written in the old format (until checkpoint59i) if it
261        recognizes an old meta file (no field-list).
262      - add a meta file in exp. which starts from a pickup: 2 cases:
263        a) minimal meta file (with just file precision) + pickupStrictlyMatch=F
264         e.g.: global_ocean.90x40x15/input/pickup.0000036000.meta
265        b) a meta file describing the content of the associated pickup file
266         e.g.: tutorial_global_oce_biogeo/input/pickup.0004248000.meta
267    o pkg/mdsio & pkg/rw:
268      - new routine to read a meta file ; new set of routine to read
269        Multiple-fields file (with meta file).
270    o added open boundary conditions capability for seaice
271        HSNOW, HSALT, UICE, and VICE
272    
273    checkpoint59i
274    o adjoint:
275      * fix multiDimAdvection adjoint
276        (partial recomputation problem by TAF for fVerT(:,:,kDown)
277        and comlev1 size definition (maxpass vs. max. number of tracers)
278      * verification/global_ocean.90x45x15 adjoint now tests
279        NLFS and multiDimAdvection using DST3 (=30)
280      * verification/lab_sea now tests multiDimAdvection using DST3 (=30)
281    o pkg/kpp: add "_d 0" to real constant (if missing);
282      update output of exp: natl_box (10.digits); vermix (std, 7.digits)
283      and lab_sea, 3.FW (only 6,4,6 digits match) & AD (8.digits).
284    o prepare for "clever pickup" implementation: add new header file "RESTART.h"
285      for internal parameters related to restart process (formerly from PARAMS.h)
286      and add startAB parameter to argument list of S/R ADAMS_BASHFORTH2.
287    o more standard interface to {PKG}_WRITE_PICKUP with pickup suffix passed
288      as argument. (only atm2d & obcs write_pickup have not yet been updated)
289    o pkg/monitor:
290      - use GLOBAL_SUM_TILE instead of _GLOBAL_SUM
291      - fix mon_stats_rs (statistics over the full domain, even where field is zero)
292      - account for deep Atmosphere factor and density factor (anelastic)
293    o added open boundary conditions capability for seaice HEFF and AREA
294    o pkg/shelfice: add option for convservative form of Hellmer&Olbers (1989)
295      thermodynamics
296      - requires a little reorganization, which affects the testreport results
297        of isomip.htd (only 7 digits of cg2d agree) => update/modify experiment,
298        so that now the conservative form is tested
299      - add a few comments
300    o add missing cvs Header: or Name: in eesupp/*, pkg/* & verification/code*
301    o add a little bit of code to gad_os7mp_adv_?.F to help vectorization
302    o add new diagnostics to seaice: advective, diffusive fluxes (only for
303      multidim-advection, for scheme 2 they are not filled) and transports,
304      thermodynamic growth rates
305    o change units of EmPmR (inside the code, + within coupling interface)
306      from m/s to kg/m2/s (mass flux) but leave input file unchanged.
307      Affects results @ truncation level (cg2d match) and update output of
308       experiments: lab_sea(6), global_ocean.90x40x15(10),
309      global_ocean.cs32x15(11x3,10), natl_box(11), tutorial_global_oce_latlon(11)
310      + adjoint results: global_ocean_ebm(11) and lab_sea (12).
311      Coupled set-up: allow to restart from previous pickups (cpl_oldPickup=T).
312      Next: will retire convertEmP2rUnit (simply using mass2rUnit instead).
313    
314    checkpoint59h
315    o pkg/exf:
316      - improve vectorization by moving if-statement out of loops in
317        exf_mapfields, exf_radiation
318      - exf_bulkformulae.F: introduce 2D fields and vectorize code
319    o pkg/kpp: added the salt plume scheme (ALLOW_SALT_PLUME) to KPP package
320    o testreport:
321      - allow to test for Qnet & SeaIce monitor output; clean-up ALLOW_BULK_OFFLINE
322        monitor & update offline_exf_seaice exp. output.
323      - AD testing: pass/FAIL according to Grad. output accuracy (instead of Cost)
324    o pkg/seaice:
325      - bug fix in the evp solver: boundary conditions were affected be
326        masking of zMax/zMin (changes results)
327      - minor bug fix in boundary conditions in seaice_calc_strainrates
328        (changes results for no_slip)
329      - seaice_lsr.F: make interpolation of eta dependent on boundaries
330      - replace hardcoded lower limit for zeta (zMin) by runtime parameter
331      - add a test to lab_sea, that tests the Hibler and Bryan (1987) ocean
332        stress formulation and no-slip boundary conditions
333    o pkg/ptracers: Temporary fix for PTRACERS_useGMRedi & PTRACERS_useKPP
334      in gad_calc_rhs.F ; add few safety stops in initialisation phase.
335    o pkg/seaice: a first HSALT time stepping equation has been checked in
336    o pkg/seaice: replaced maskW with seaiceMaskU and maskS with seaiceMaskV
337      in seaice_lsr.F; this solves the pkg/seaice-pkg/obcs problem
338      without requiring DO-IF statements
339    o pkg/thsice:
340      use continuous power-law function for partition of energy between lateral
341      melting/freezing and thinning/thickening ; old code using step function
342      still available with #undef THSICE_FRACEN_POWERLAW
343      update output of exp: aim.5l_cs.thSI, global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn & .thsice
344    o testreport: change AD testing : check against results/output_adm.txt
345      using same scripts as for forward test.
346    
347    checkpoint59g
348    o adjoint testing: in preparation for changing testreport:
349      - output format: cost and grad written on separated lines
350      - ad output results in directory "results" (instead of "results_ad")
351    o pkg/seaice: adding ice salinity HSALT as a prognostic variable
352    o pkg/seaice: changes for using pkg/seaice with pkg/obcs
353    o pkg/ecco: allow user defined cost function contributions
354    o testreport:
355      Allow to choose (per experiment) the list of tested output variables
356       and the main variable (used to issue a pass/FAIL ) ;
357      - for now, done by adding the specific list in file: [exp]/input/tr_checklist
358      - default is unchanged: >cg2d< , (T,S,U,V,5 tracers)_[min,max,mean,StD] ;
359      Also modify printing of summary:
360       a) ">" NN "<" indicates the "main" variable (used for pass/FAIL)
361       b) echo the list of tested variables in the individual summary.txt of
362          each experiment.
363    o new S/R GLOBAL_SUM_TILE to compute global sum independently of number of
364      threads and number of processes (with #define GLOBAL_SUM_SEND_RECV)
365      (but still depend on the tile decompostion of the domain).
366    o pkg/seaice: change a discretization detail to make the B-grid code
367      "more symmetric". This change is likely to remove all "ridges/leads" that
368      where quasi-aligned with the grid in B-grid solutions. It may also be
369      the solution to the stress coupling issues with the B-grid.
370    o each tested exp: add a "run" directory with a standard ".cvsignore" file ;
371      remove .cvsignore from input dir. (since testreport no longer run here).
372    o pkg/thsice:
373     - cleaning: move common block out of "THSICE_2DYN.h" (removed) to "THSICE_VARS.h"
374     - fix reshaping of sea-ice just after advection:
375       melt all the ice only if ice-volume is too small.
376     - re-visit lateral/thinning repartition of melting (modifs from May 04, 2007):
377       prevent lateral melting if sea-ice fraction is too close to iceMaskMin ;
378     and update experiment global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn (+start from pickup files).
379    o external_forcing_surf : extend the use of salt_EvPrRn & temp_EvPrRn (fresh-water
380      tracer content) to linFS or no RealFreshWaterFlux ; default remains unchanged.
381    o define mass2rUnit & rUnit2mass as units conversion factor, used for surface
382      forcing. mass2rUnit: from mass per unit area [kg/m2] to r-coordinate unit
383      (z-coord: =1/rhoConst ; p-coord: =gravity) ; rUnit2mass is just the reverse;
384      and remove horiVertRatio (& recip_horiVertRatio). Affects truncation error
385      of exp. global_oce_in_p: 10 16 16 14 16 13 16 16 16 13 13 13 16 13 13 12 16
386      -> update output.txt
387    o pkg/cd_code: add brackets in multiple terms sum (S/R CD_CODE_SCHEME):
388     this affects truncation error: -> update output.txt of exp:
389      global_ocean.90x40x15 (fw&adm), lab_sea (fw&adm) & lab_sea.lsr,
390      ideal_2D_oce, isomip.htd, natl_box, tutorial_global_oce_latlon.
391    
392    checkpoint59f
393    o pkg/autodiff: zero_adj resets an ajoint variable to zero (in adjoint mode)
394    o pkg/ctrl: ctrl_bound  forces parameter corrections to stay in
395      a bounded range (in forward mode)
396    o pkg/ecco, ctrl, autodiff and mom_common:
397     internal parameter controls, completements of implementations
398    o add few EXCH S/R (UV_BGRID, UV_DGRID, SM) for B & D-Grid velocity & 2nd Moment Sxy.
399    o use UV_BGRID exch for dxV,dyU: for now, only with pkg/exch2 & forward ;
400      (not seem any difference in testing results).
401    o pkg/cd_code: use the right EXCH calls (for CS-grid); but problem remains
402       at face corners.
403    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
404     - in GAD.h, define as parameters (iMinAdvR,iMaxAdvR,jMinAdvR,jMaxAdvR)
405      loop range indices for computing vertical advection tendency
406      and do the calculation in the interior only (no overlap) ;
407      for now, only implemented for SOM advection (to save CPU time).
408     - add argument "withSigns" to S/R FILL_CS_CORNER_TR_RL (needed for SOM_xy moment)
409    o exch2 adjoint
410      First set of changes:
411      - add exch2 hand-written adjoint templates
412      - exch2 hand-written no longer use TAF-flag 'nownew_arg'
413        This will require cleanup in pkg/autodiff/*.F
414        (changed routines currently kept separate in verif. code/)
415      - Comment all relevant #ifndef ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC
416        that used to hide exch2 or cubed-sphere specific code
417        (commented via 'cph-exch2')
418    o pkg/seaice
419      - Close southern and western boundaries for UICE/VICE when useOBCS=.TRUE.
420    o pkg/bulk_force: fix loading into Qsw of Short-Wave flux; and update
421       output of global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice .
422    
423    checkpoint59e
424    o exch2: new S/R that only use the cube-tracer (center-position) exchange:
425      for B-grid vector (not yet tested) and C-grid vector (<- only used
426      when option W2_USE_R1_ONLY in W2_OPTIONS.h is defined).
427    o starting implementation of Duffy et al. (GRL 1999) salt plume scheme
428      (#ifdef ALLOW_SALT_PLUME)
429    o gather_2d/scatter_2d: removed halo regions
430    o gmredi: add option (GM_taper_scheme='fm07') for Ferrari & McWilliams 2007
431      scheme and the corresponding test case (under front_relax dir). For now,
432      only available with Skew-flux form and not yet tested in realistic set-up.
433      adjoint: store directives updated, but gradient checks deteriorated,
434      so maybe GM/Redi adjoint is now broken.
435    o seaice adjoint
436      * add AREA, HEFF, HSNOW as control variable
437        (should not change lab_sea results)
438      * CTRL_OPTIONS.h needs new flag: CTRL_SET_OLD_MAXCVARS_40
439    o pkg/seaice:
440      * added computation of saltFlux in seaice_growth;
441        For time being, sea ice salinity is assumed constant
442        contribution of snow flooding to freshening of sea ice is neglected.
443        SEAICE_salinity is set in SEAICE_PARM01 of data.seaice and it
444        defaults to 0.0 in order to maintain backward compatibility.
445        Typical values for SEAICE_salinity are 4 to 10 g/kg.
446      * replaced dRf(1) with dRf(kSurface)*hFacC(kSurface) in seaice_growth.F
447      * added SEAICE_availHeatFrac, which specifies fraction of surface level
448        heat content used to melt or grow ice
449      * commented out cap of HICE: it helps keep ice thinner
450      * reintroduced cap of HEFF via MAX_HEFF and SEAICE_CAP_HEFF option
451      * applied OBCS T/S mask to HEFFM sea ice mask
452    
453    checkpoint59d
454    o standard name: {PKG}_DIAGNOSTICS_STATE to fill diagnostics array
455     for {PKG} state variables, and called from DO_STATEVARS_DIAGS.
456     (keep {PKG}_DIAGNOSTICS_FILL for non-state variables diagnostics)
457    o pkg/gmredi (gmredi_readparms.F): add some missing "_d 0"
458     and change default value of parameter "GM_Small_Number";
459     update output of exp: lab_sea (x2), cfc_example, global_ocean.90x40x15,
460       global_ocean.cs32x15 (x4), global_ocean_ebm, global_with_exf,  
461       tutorial_global_oce_biogeo, tutorial_global_oce_latlon
462    o pkg/ecco: cost function when applying pkg/smooth to controls
463    o pkg/ctrl: add forcingPrecond run time parameter
464    o pkg/seaice:
465     - replace ZMIN=4.e8 with ZMIN=0. in dynsolver.F as in C-grid code
466     - fix bug in metric terms of u-equation in LSR solver (implicit part),
467       changes verification/lab_sea
468     - rearrange implicit part of u-equation in LSR solver to make it easier to
469       read, understand, and debug. This causes changes at the truncation level.
470     - fix (serious) bug in the boundary conditions (sign error in the implicit
471       part) of the LSR solver. Changes all LSR results.
472     - fixed problem with HSNOW initialization to avoid thick snow when AREA
473       is initilized with small values - does not change lab_sea results.
474     - added HsnowFile initialization capability
475    o pkg/smooth: addition to model/src and pkg/ctrl so allow
476     initialization of pkg/smooth and application to control vector
477    o pkg/seaice: fix another bug in the LSR no-slip boundary conditons
478    o dependencies: pkg/profiles requires pkg/cal
479    o pkg/profiles:
480     - added option ALLOW_PROFILES_GENERICGRID
481         -> pkg/profiles can thus be used with any grid (e.g. cs32x15) assuming
482         that interpolation information (grid points and coefficients) is provided
483         within the netcdf input files.
484         -> sample matlab scripts can be found in MITgcm_contrib/gael
485         that allow you to prepare netcdf input files.
486     - also modified: cleaner include statements, cleaner error print statements,
487       cleaner stops when error, and more tests of the netcdf input files consistency.
488    o additional test (in global_ocean.cs32x15) using seaice+thsice pkgs.
489    o pkg/seaice:
490     - move seaice-diagnostics from seaice_do_diags to do_statevars_diags; this
491       requires a new routine: seaice_diagnostics_fill.F
492     - make sure that seaice does not move if not forced (pressure replacement
493       method, Hibler and Ip, 1995), changes results
494     - and new damping criterion for EVP solver according to Hunke, JCP, 2001
495     - SEAICE_evpDampC = > 0. turns it on (615. is the recommended value).
496       It is turned off by default (=-1.), because it changes the results.
497     - make it possible to read AREA from a file, too.
498    
499    checkpoint59c
500    o add S/R and diagnostics for oceanic mixed-layer depth
501    o move GMRedi call after all vertical mixing schemes (including KPP)
502    o pkg/thsice:
503     - ensure iceMask > iceMaskMin : this problem appeared after May-04 modifs
504      (melt only laterally if thin ice): update output of global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice
505    o pkg/obcs:
506     - bug fix for balance code
507    o pkg/seaice:
508      - allow values of SEAICE_elasticParm > 1
509      - add new parameter SEAICE_evpTauRelax as an alternative
510        to SEAICE_elasticParm
511      - make lsr boundary conditions free slip (by default), changes result
512      - add code for no slip boundary conditions for lsr
513      - set minimum of zeta to zero (and not 4e8) (changes results)
514      - add a cap on AREA after advecting AREA if seaice_growth is not called
515    o change calculation of Visbeck K:
516      - no longer depend on tapering scheme; instead, compute slope (limited
517        by GM_maxSlope). this is equivalent to what was comuted before with
518        clipping or linear tappering.
519      - fix vertical averaging (wrong by 1/2 level)
520      - leave the old version (but will not be maintained) within
521        #ifdef OLD_VISBECK_CALC / #endif
522      - update output of exp. ideal_2D_oce
523    o change error catch in calc_r_star to improve vectorization
524    o exf runoff and seaice: remove ALLOW_SEAICE from exf pkg files and
525      add #define ALLOW_RUNOFF in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h (when not using exf).
526    o adjoint:
527      Re-organized adjoint checkpointing according to Matt Mazloff
528      (but with modifs/completions/cleanups)
529      Storing is now bundled into large arrays to optimized I/O
530      (and second step in cleanup of the_main_loop)
531    
532    checkpoint59b
533    o coupler (pkg/atm_ocn_coupler, pkg/ocn_compon_interf, pkg/atm2d):
534      - export/import (between ocean & coupler) fields needed for ocean DIC.
535    o pkg/seaice:
536      - get rid of three more exchanges seaice_calc_viscosities (required
537        different loop boundaries in seaice_lsr and seaice_ocean_stress)
538      - bug fix in seaice_ocean_stress (update of lab_sea required)
539      - reduce loop boundaries to necessary minimum also in seaice_evp
540      - go back to the old way of computing deltaC/Z as the adjoint likes that
541        better
542    o Refresh of tutorial_global_oce_latlon (includes changing salinity-like
543      passive tracer to an Age Tracer) + update output.txt
544    o pkg/exf:
545      - implement A-grid / C-grid selection for wind-stress input files.
546      - clean-up exf_wind.F (remove us, use wspeed instead ; add wStress)
547      for now, in exf_bulk_largeyeager04.F only :
548      - change implementation for case where windspeed + 2. components wind-stress
549        are read-in. AND use rhoConstFresh to convert evap.
550    o pkg/seaice:
551      - use correct EXCH_UV for wind-forcing (on A-grid).
552      - change SEAICE_OPTIONS.h to limit the number of option combinations (regarding
553        SEAICE_EXTERNAL_FORCING & SEAICE_EXTERNAL_FLUXES); add corresponding stops.
554    o pkg/exf:
555      - default EXF options are now set in EXF_OPTIONS.h (ifndef ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC)
556      EXF_INTERPOLATION:
557      - merge global_with_exf/code version of exf_interp_read.F
558        to the main code ;
559      - Add new option: EXF_INTERP_USE_DYNALLOC to use Dynamical Allocation when
560        reading the file ; Important: This options needs to be defined to recover
561        previous code.
562        otherwise, use fixed size array to read in (size=exf_interp_bufferSize).
563      - no longer loose real*8 precision along the way when using exf_iprec=64.
564    o pkg/seaice: rearrangement of common blocks (really needs more cleaning up)
565      - change discretisation of evp-solver in order to avoid another exchange
566        (changes lab_sea) and clean up a little
567      - replace SQRT(MAX(deltaC,SEAICE_EPS)) by MAX(SQRT(deltaC),SEAICE_EPS)
568        help the adjoint (this also changes the results slightly)
569      - add a few "_d 0" where they had been missing in seaice_evp.F
570      - cleaning up: remove unused seaice_calc_rhs.F
571    o pkg/exf: some cleaning-up:
572      - change various "constants" into runtime parameters
573      - cleaned-up Large&Yeager04 routine which should eventually
574        replace exf_bulkformulae.F (changed names of S/R and CPP)
575        and merged various ALLOW_ATM_WIND options
576     only used with thsice pkg (in thsice_get_exf.F):
577      - implement fixed turbulent transfert Coeff over ice (as in Large&Yeager04)
578        which are used when useStabilityFct_overIce=TRUE (= the default)
579      - change default values of ice & snow emissivity and scale downward LW
580        by ice & snow emissivity.
581    o pkg/thsice:
582     fix few little problems, in thsice_calc_thickn.F:
583      - growth vertically (and not laterally) if iceFrac == iceMaskMax
584      - melt only laterally if hIce < hThinIce (as the comments say)
585      and in thsice_extend.F:
586      - allow to form ice even when iceFrac == iceMaskMax (by increasing thickness)
587      - start to form ice as soon as the minimum ice-volume is reachable.
588     update output of test-exp: aim.5l_cs(thSI), global_ocean.cs32x15(thsice),
589      and cpl_aim+ocn
590    o pkg/kpp
591     - move computation of surface related input fields to KPP into a new
592       subroutine kpp_forcing_surf.F
593     - remove wrong (within bi,bj loops) EXCH calls.
594     - little cleaning (add argument myThid in last position, cvs header ...)
595     - for now, fix conservation problem by exchanging KPPviscAz (may not
596       be the best fix)
597    o pkg/seaice
598     - check for inconsistent evp parameter/cpp-flag combination
599     - remove leftover errIO flat for obsolete name list error handling
600    o OpenAD
601     - changed verification/OpenAD to full baroclinic setup (including GM/Redi)
602    
603    checkpoint59a
604    o pkg/seaice: some parameter clarifications and a little bit of clean up
605    o pkg/thsice: rename run-time parameters:
606       himin       -> hIceMin
607       himin0      -> hThinIce
608       hihig       -> hThickIce
609       i0          -> i0swFrac
610       transCoef   -> bMeltCoef
611       frac_energy -> fracMelting
612      add new parameters: hNewIceMax, fracFreezing, dhSnowLin
613       with default values (for now) that do not change the results.
614      remove old version of thsice vars advection in pkg/seaice.
615    o in FFIELDS.h:
616      - replace #ifndef ALLOW_EXF  by #ifndef EXCLUDE_FFIELDS_LOAD
617      - make pLoad & sIceLoad always available (but still only used if
618         ATMOSPHERIC_LOADING is #define).
619    o pkg/kpp: replaced _KPP_RL with _RL
620    o bug fixes for vertical diffusivity computations when both KPP and
621        3D diffusivity arrays are used; pkg/kpp/kpp_calc_diff_s & _t.F
622        are no longer updating the vertical diffusivity array
623        (passed as argument) but are (re-) setting those arrays.
624    o pkg/seaice: fix bug in evp solver, while doing that
625      - change (improve?) discretization of stress computations for both
626        cgrid-lsr and evp solver
627      - add a new routine to compute strain rates
628      - the above changes lab_sea results
629      - add no slip conditions for evp solver (off by default), lsr-version
630        may follow
631      - fix exchange for shear at Z-points (does not change lab_sea)
632      - retire SEAICEuseEVP, instead turn on EVP by setting SEAICE_deltaTevp
633        (to force the user to pick a time step since there is not "safe" way
634        of choosing it)
635      - add principal stress diagnostics
636      - rearrange fields for evp a little to avoid having to call a: too many
637        exchanges and b: exchanges for stress trensor components which we do
638        not have.
639      - modify Hibler+Bryan (1987) stress coupling so that it reuses information
640        of evp, complete rewrite for lsr case (latter is does not yet work
641        in all cases)
642    o pkg/kpp: add code to have mixing in shelf ice caverns
643      - add myThid to all kpp routines (long overdue)
644    
645    checkpoint59
646    o pkg/exf:
647      - fix wind-stress location: defined on A-grid (if ALLOW_ATM_WIND &
648        ALLOW_BULKFORMULAE or USE_EXF_INTERPOLATION), otherwise, defined on C-grid
649      - move exf header files from lower_case.h to UPPER_CASE.h ;
650        add missing cvs Header & Name
651      - add adjoint routines and flow dirs for newly used exch_uv_agrid routines
652      - add namelist param. selectStressGridPosition, exf_monFreq
653      - retire many _CLIM routines, and remove data.exf_clim
654        + params moved to data.exf
655        + climsst, climsss now handled by exf_set_gen, i.e.
656          climss?period=0 refers to constant field,
657          climss?period=-12 to monthly forcing
658      - split up namelists in data.exf
659    o pkg/seaice:
660      - remove seaice_exch and seaice_exch_uv
661      - remove superfluous exchange of theta
662      - add myThid to seaice_budget_ocean/ice
663      - add new interface for atmospheric wind forcing (C-grid only)
664        + new routine
665        + two new field (taux, tauy for stress over ice)
666        + removed one global field (DAIRN) for C-grid case only
667    o pkg/thsise
668      - 2nd set of modifs for thsice adjoint in conjunction with exf
669    o enable runtime flag useEXF (useCAL is set to .T. if useEXF=.T.)
670    
671    checkpoint58y_post
672    o Added capability for latitudinal dependence of Bryan and Lewis, 1979
673      vertical diffusivity, similar to that in MOM4; turned on using
674      #define ALLOW_BL79_LAT_VARY in CPP_OPTIONS.h and specified using
675      diffKrBL79*, diffKrBLEQ*, and BL79LatVary in runtime data file.
676    o Added capability for 3D specification of background vertical diffusion
677      coefficient.  This is done by (i) #define ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR
678      in CPP_OPTIONS.h and (ii) specifying file diffKrFile in runtime
679      "data" file that contains the 3D vertical diffusivity coefficients.
680    o ice dynamics (pkg/seaice) with thsice thermodynamics:
681      - add code within pkg thsice to advect & diffuse sea-ice fields
682      similar to (and will replace) what has been added in  seaice_advdiff.F,
683      but: - conserving Mass, Heat & Salt.
684           - better when using non-linear advection scheme (not yet fully tested)
685           - can also be used in atmospheric set-up (for now, only the diffusion).
686    
687    checkpoint58x_post
688    o IO option for global-file compact format:
689      - add options when generating topology (utils/exch2/matlab-topology-generator)
690      - add I/O capability (pkg/mdsio).
691      - adapt utils/matlab/rdmds.m to read this format.
692      for now long-line format not yet supported by pkg/mdsio (& exch2).
693    o shelfice: add a few diagnostics
694    
695    checkpoint58w_post
696    o p-coord. non-hydrostatic using reference profile for w <-> omega conversion:
697      rVel2wUnit & wUnit2rVel are computed from reference profile Tref,Sref
698      (and replace horiVertRatio in NH code).
699      Update output of exp.: tutorial_global_oce_in_p (useNHMTerms !)
700                         and tutorial_plume_on_slope (sensitive to truncation)
701    o seaice: if ALLOW_ATM_WIND is undefined use wind stress
702      directly to drive seaice model (C-grid only)
703    o exf: when input wind-stress (#undef ALLOW_ATM_WIND):
704     - reintroduce computation of wind from stress,
705     - compute tau (in exf_bulkformulae.F) from windstress averaged to
706       mass points to avoid tau = 0
707     - fix serious bug: (1/3) in Fortran is not the same as (1./3.)
708    o rdmnc.m: make it work with "global" files created with gluemnc
709    o rdmnc.m : some improvements in dealing with singleton dimension
710      (tested on all testreport mnc output files).
711    o genmake2: disable pkg/profiles if netcdf test fails.
712    o cpl_aim+ocn exp.: use consistent rhoConstFresh in Atm & Ocn; update output.
713    o move call to cal_readparms up to make calendar parameters/variable available
714      to all packages
715    
716    checkpoint58v_post
717    o change EOS (from POLY3 to JMD95P) in global_ocean.90x45x15 to get
718      useDynP_inEos_Zc tested.
719    o pkg/exf: changes to properly interpolate/mask/scale initial fields
720    o utils/matlab/cs_grid/read_cs: routines to speed up reading of CS510 fields
721      and portions thereof.  See read_cs.txt for description and examples.
722    o utils/matlab/cs_grid/bk_line: to compute transport through passages,
723      add a script (grt_circ_bkl.m) to generate broken-line between 2 points,
724      following the great-circle arc between those 2 points.
725    o trap un-initialized variable with pathscale compiler on weddell.mit.edu
726      (thanks to Constantinos): fix few problems and get (almost) all exp to pass.
727    o 2nd-Order Moment Advection Scheme (Prather, 1986): first check-in
728     - enable by setting #define GAD_ALLOW_SOM_ADVECT (in GAD_OPTIONS.h)
729     - used without limiter (AdvScheme=80) or with Prather limiter (AdvScheme=81)
730     - still needs work (not working with some options ; efficiency to improve)
731       and serious testing.
732     - use this scheme for temperature & salinity in 2 advection test exp.:
733       advect_xy & advect_xz, respectively.
734    
735    checkpoint58u_post
736    o new test-exp: fizhi-cs-32x32x40 (40 levels) to replace the 10 levels.
737    o move call to INI_FORCING from PACKAGES_INIT_VARIABLES to INITIALISE_VARIA.
738    o testreport: add option "-skipdir" to skip some test.
739    o exf: when input wind-stress (#undef ALLOW_ATM_WIND), by-pass turbulent
740      momentum calculation.
741    o gad_advection: fix vertAdvecScheme (if different from advectionScheme)
742    o some cleaning: usePickupBeforeC35 no longer supported ; remove this option.
743      remove checkpoint.F and the_correction_step.F (no longer used);
744      do the k loop inside CYCLE_TRACER (supposed to be more efficient).
745    o add option (linFSConserveTr) to correct for tracer source/sink due to
746      Linear Free surface
747    o pkg/seaice: fix a bug in the flooding algorithm: turn off the snow machine
748    o pkg/thsice: fix reading mnc-pickups
749    
750    checkpoint58t_post
751    o pkg/diagnostics: fix multi-threaded output (when singleCpuIO=F)
752    o pkg/mdsio:
753     - clean-up mdsio_readfield.F & mdsio_writefield_new.F and
754       move to new files: mdsio_read_field.F (S/R MDS_READ_FIELD) &
755       mdsio_write_field.F (S/R MDS_WRITE_FIELD);
756     - fix multi-threaded singleCpuIO option in MDS_WRITE_FIELD
757     - collect old S/R  in one file: mdsio_rw_field.F (now just a call to
758       either MDS_READ_FIELD or MDS_WRITE_FIELD )
759     - new S/R (to replace MDSWRITEMETA), which allows to write more
760       informations (variable names, time ...) to meta files.
761     - modify rdmds.m to give back the meta file content.
762    o pkg/diagnostics: change vertical interpolation to be safer, and more
763       flexible (define p-levels to interpolate to in data.diagnostics);
764      add argument to S/R DIAGNOSTICS_GET_POINTERS to catch the right
765       diagnostic pointer.
766    o pkg/seaice: more cleaning up of seaice_growth, added many comments
767    o pkg/exf: put runoff0 and runoff1 into the appropriate common block
768    o fix multi-category seaice:
769     - change cpp flag SEAICE_MULTILEVEL to more meaningful name:
770       SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY
771     - fix short wave heat flux
772    o pkg/seaice: change default (SEAICE_OPTIONS.h): use C-grid dynamics
773       and allow to use EVP solver. Change forward lab_sea: test both EVP
774       solver and LSR solver, and use C-grid dynamics (like lab_sea adjoint)
775    o Initial check-in of lab_sea adjoint
776      (very similar to natl_box_adjoint/code_seaice)
777      * used C-grid and EVP solver
778      * used KPP, GM/Redi
779      * uses inAdExact=.TRUE.
780      * gradient checks fail for both ADM and TLM
781        due to sensitive snow melt code in seaice_grwoth (look for "JZ")
782        f.d. gradients actually seem more problematic than ADM, TLM gradients;
783        issue is related to forward mismatch between g77 an ifort
784    o pkg/seaice: overhaul of thermodynamics
785     - growth.F and groatb.F are replaced by new routine seaice_growth.F
786     - budget.F is replaced by two new routines seaice_budget_ocean/ice.F
787     - move a few global fields out of SEAICE.h into seaice_growth.F and
788       make them 2D (FICE/QNETO/ ...)
789     - remove FO (it is the same as QNETO)
790     - introduce a few local fields to avoid modifying external fields such
791       as atemp, etc.
792    
793    checkpoint58s_post
794    o pkg/exf: moved exf_init_runoff.F to exf_init.F and exf_set_gen.F
795      changed exf_set_gen.F so that
796        genperiod=0 means input file is one time-constant field and
797        genperiod=-12 means input file contains 12 monthly means
798    o CG2D: use pre-computed solver main-diagonal (stored in common block);
799      this affects truncation error ; generate new output file for exp. which
800      fails: exp4(12d), fizhi-cs-aqualev20(12d), front_relax(10d),
801        global_ocean.90x40x15(10d), global_ocean.cs32x15(10d).thsice(11d).viscA4(10d),
802        ideal_2D_oce(10d), internal_wave(09d), isomip.htd(11d), matrix_example(07d),
803        MLAdjust(4x11d,12d), natl_box(11d), rotating_tank(12d),
804        tutorial_global_oce_in_p(10d), tutorial_plume_on_slope(11d),
805        vermix(12d).ggl90(12d).my82(11d).opps(12d).pp81(11d)
806    o start implementation of deep-atmosphere and anelastic formulation
807    o verification: remove 2nd copy of input files and use script "prepare_run"
808      to make a symbolic link to the 1rst copy (reduce downloaded size by ~81.M)
809    o mom_common/vecinv/fluxform: fix a few initialisation isssues
810    o profiles: fix for multithreaded case
811    
812    o diagnostics: rename few diags:
813      s/'PRESSURE'/'RCENTER '/g
814      s/'TICE    '/'oceFreez'/g
815      s/'TAUX    '/'oceTAUX '/g
816      s/'TAUY    '/'oceTAUY '/g
817      s/'SWFLUX  '/'oceQsw  '/g
818      s/DIFx/DFxE/g
819      s/DIFy/DFyE/g
820      and add few ocean-forcing diagnostics:
821      atmPload, sIceLoad, oceQnet, oceFWflx, oceSflux, surForcT & surForcS
822    o modifications to pkg/seaice/growth.F and budget.F, which change results of
823      lab_sea experiment: HSNOW was sometimes treated as effective and sometimes
824      as actual snow thickness.  It now refers everywhere to effective snow
825      thickness, meaning that for non-zero AREA, actual thickness is HEFF/AREA.
826    
827    checkpoint58r_post
828    o modifications to pkg/seaice/growth.F, which change results of
829      lab_sea experiment: fixes pertain to melting snow over open water, to
830      masking EVAP under sea ice, and to using the correct AREA variable for
831      computations of EVAP, PRECIP, HSNOW, and GHEFF
832    o add ability to read bathy, salt, and theta using MNC (off by def)
833    o add flooding algorithm and advection of HSNOW for pkg/seaice;
834      both are turned off by default and do no change any results
835    o seaice advection with pkg/thsice: a step toward the use of non-linear
836      advection scheme, but #ifdef or commented out for now (requires more EXCH).
837    o use standard version of PTRACERS_INI_VARIA in tutorial_tracer_adjsens
838      (identical results) and the standard version of EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD
839      in natl_box (affects results @ truncation level: update output.txt)
840    o multi-threading and IO:
841      - replace some call to MDSIO S/R by the corresponding READ/WRITE_FLD S/R.
842      - remove most of BEGIN_MASTER/ END_MASTER around READ/WRITE_FLD S/R calls
843        (needed to work with SingleCpuIO): tested in all verif. exp.
844    o GAD: use simpler DST3 formulation as default (old version left within #ifdef)
845      affects the results (but none of the verification test uses this scheme).
846    o Adding some pkg/diagnostics capability to pkg/seaice
847      (will certainly be subject to changes)
848    o ctrl: adding new control variables:
849      lwflux, lwdown, evap, snowprecip, apressure, runoff
850    
851    checkpoint58q_post
852    o added CPP_EEOPTIONS.h flag DISABLE_MPI_READY_TO_RECEIVE.  Speeds up
853      1/6-deg Southern Ocean configuration by 8% on IBM Datastar and
854      high_res_cube configuration by 4% on Columbia.
855    o clean-up multi-threaded problems (reported by debugger tcheck on ACES);
856      add (in global_with_exf/code) a version of EXF_INTERP_READ without
857      dynamical allocation (seems to work in multi-threaded).
858    o new function "MASTER_CPU_IO" (=T if master thread & master CPU, if using
859      single CPU io) so that TAF does not have to see EESUPPORT.h
860    o pkg/seaice: implement sea-ice loading (when using RealFreshWaterFlux)
861    
862    checkpoint58p_post
863    o obcs: stop if obcs is used with useCDscheme = .true.
864    o shelfice:
865     - fix a sign error so that no slip at shelfice interface works
866     - remove stop for combination non-hydrostatic code and shelfice. That does
867       not mean, that the results are correct, but at least they are numerically
868       stable
869  o diagnoctics: modify UVELPHI and VVELPHI to include hfac (i.e. mass-weighted)  o diagnoctics: modify UVELPHI and VVELPHI to include hfac (i.e. mass-weighted)
870    o added adjoint exch routined for all exch*3d* routines
871      and updated flow directives
872    
873  checkpoint58o_post  checkpoint58o_post
874  o replace calls to EXCH_Z & EXCH_UV_AGRID: use the new _3D_ version ;  o replace calls to EXCH_Z & EXCH_UV_AGRID: use the new _3D_ version ;
