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