4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o pkg/exch2:
8     - new code to set-up W2-Exch2 topology (replace matlab-topology-generator):
9       read parameter file "data.exch2" if it exists; otherwise try default regular
10       cube without blank-tile; new header file "W2_EXCH2_SIZE.h";
11     - update matlab-topology-generator (exch2_setup_cs6_print.m) to be compatible
12       with new code (not to be used, just as a backup solution).
13    
14    checkpoint61n
15    o eesupp & mdsio (SingleCpuIO):
16      - move mapping to global io-buffer inside gather_2d/scater_2d: this save
17        memory (1 less 2D global RL array); skip 1 buffer copy; and only send/
18        receive real*4 array (instead of real*8) to read/write 32.bit files.
19        (new template for gather_2d/scater_2d, new set of S/R MDS_PASS_R4,8toRL,S
20         and remove new mapping S/R)
21    o pkg/mdsio: in preparation for topology-generator within pkg/exch2:
22      - Change declaration of SingleCpuIO buffer, reduced to only 1 dim.:
23        xyBuffer_size, which is set to W2_ioBufferSize from W2_EXCH2_PARAMS.h
24        when using exch2. Add S/R to map global io-buffer to global model array.
25      - uses exch2_global_Nx,y instead of exch2_domain_nxt,nyt.
26    
27    checkpoint61m
28    o write_utils : change WRITE_1D_R8 to WRITE_1D_RL
29      and add 3 other S/R for other types (R4,R8,RS).
30      Change calls to WRITE_0D/1D_R[4,8,S,L] to match the type of argument.
31    o eesupp/inc/CPP_EEMACROS.h (EXCH & GLOBAL_SUM/MAX macros):
32     - ensure suffix (_R4,_R8,_RS,_RL) correspondance between macro and S/R ;
33     - reduce number of macro definitions (keep only those which are used);
34       can always call directly the corrresponding S/R if needed.
35     - everywhere in the code: change macros (EXCH & GLOBAL_SUM/MAX) suffix
36       _R4/_R8 to _RS/_RL when applied to _RS/_RL variable.
37     Fixed wrong type of arg in:
38       atm2d/put_ocnvars.F cheapaml/cheapaml.F ocn_compon_interf/ocn_apply_import.F
39       ctrl/ctrl_map_ini_ecco.F seaice/seaice_do_diags.F seaice/seaice_model.F
40     To fix: global_sum of var in common block is wrong (multi-threaded) in:
41       dic/dic_atmos.F ebm/ebm_area_t.F ebm/ebm_zonalmean.F sbo/sbo_calc.F
42     To fix: aim_v23/aim_do_co2.F (BARRIER & GLOBAL_SUM within bi,bj loops)
43    o adjustment.cs-32x32x1: test "blank tiles" when compiling with mpi; 2nd
44      "nlfs" mpi test is going to stop when checking for unconnected tile egdes.
45    o eesupp/src: new S/R to stop everyone when 1 (or more) Proc. find an error
46    o pkg/exch2: new S/R EXCH2_CHECK_DEPTHS to check that unconnected tile
47      edges are closed (zero depth); might happen with "blank tiles";
48      for now, disabled if using OBCS.
49    o tools/gemake2: delete modifs from March 27-29 2009 (with option "-mpi":
50      link *_mpi files from "MODS" dir) to return to a strait-forward behavior.
51    o move read_write.F to write_utils.F ; new parameter (maxLengthPrt1D)
52      to reduce length of 1.D array print in STDOUT.
53    o adjustment.cs-32x32x1: changed to oceanic test with 1 continent
54      + use 48 tiles (16x8): this will allow to test "blank tiles".
55    o start to test MPI + multi-threaded (change testreport to skip tests
56      where number of tiles do not match).
57    o genmake2: add option "-omp" to turn on Open-MP ;
58      passed to testreport (if using -mth) ; merge few (*+mth) optfiles.
59    o pkg/exch2 (+ utils/exch2): ignore blank tiles (instead of removing them)
60      and keep the original tile numbering. Note: compatible with old
61      W2_EXCH2_TOPOLOGY.h & w2_e2setup.F topology files.
62    
63    checkpoint61l
64    o Overlaps had been forgotten in calculating ijk keys : fixed
65    o fix cyrus makedepend for gcc 4.4
66    o experiment fizhi-cs-aqualev20:
67      switching to new version of S/R GETPWHERE (#define TRY_NEW_GETPWHERE)
68      and generate new output. Note: new output is much closer to the old
69      one (v1.8) generated with pgf77 -O2 on Mar 14 2007 than it is from
70      the previous one (v1.9) generated with pgf77 -O0 on Jun 13 2007.
71    o pkg/fizhi:
72     - change to avoid indices going deliberately over array-bounds
73     - remove unnecessary MPI stuff
74     - perpetual spring equinox with "#define FIZHI_USE_FIXED_DAY"
75     - new version of S/R GETPWHERE available with #define TRY_NEW_GETPWHERE:
76       does not go over array-bounds and therefore returns reliable output.
77     - in fizhi_driver.F & fizhi_turb.F, fix "get_alarm" calls:
78       this S/R has 4 output arguments, which are used inside "get_alarm";
79       when it is called with the same variable "ndum" in place of several
80       output arguments, this produces weird side effect inside "get_alarm"
81      (e.g., datein=dates(n) is overwritten by timein=times(n) since both
82       datein & timein, resp. 2nd and 3rd arg., are pointed to the same "ndum"
83       address) and produces error.
84    o tools/gemake2: (March 27-29 2009)
85      with option "-mpi": link *_mpi files from "MODS" dir (this is what
86      testreport does).
87    o lab_sea experiment: change from 2x1 tiles to 2x2 tiles and regenerate output
88    o pkg/seaice: fix bug in new version of S/R SEAICE_LSR.F:
89       update lab_sea.lsr & lab_sea.salt_plume results
90    o pkg/seaice:
91      Major overhaul of the LSOR solver: change discretization from original
92      finite differences to finite volume. The old routine is still in the
93      file seaice_lsr.F and can be turned on with the CPP-flag
94      SEAICE_OLD_AND_BAD_DISCRETIZATION
95      Along with this change, the discretization of the strain rates is changed.
96      The same flag turns on the old discretization in seaice_calc_strainrates.F
97      All verification experiments with seaice are affected (except for
98      seaice_exf_offline); global_ocean.cs32x15/input.icedyn recovers the old
99      results by setting the above flag.
100      Further changes involve changes in defaults:
101      - ALLOW_FLOODING is defined and turned on by default
102      - SEAICEadvSnow = .true. is now the default
103      - SEAICEadvSalt = .true. is now the default
104      - SEAICEadvAge  = .true. is now the default
105      - SEAICE_clipVelocities  = .false. is now the default
106                                         (as per J. Zhang's recommendation)
107      - B-grid, and thus not tested: SEAICE_TEST_ICE_STRESS_1/EXPLICIT_SSH_SLOPE
108        is defined, SEAICE_TEST_ICE_STRESS_1 is renamed into SEAICE_BICE_STRESS
109      - seaice_growth: replace computation of UG by a simple copy from wspeed
110    
111    checkpoint61k
112    o pkg/seaice: a few bug fixes mostly concerning the metric terms:
113      seaice_lsr: fixed a few metric terms,
114                  affects lab_sea.lsr, lab_sea.salt_plume, seaice_obcs
115                  add more debugging diagnostics
116      seaice_evp: removed superfluous many metric terms of FV discretization
117                  of stress divergence
118                  affects lab_sea, lab_sea.hb87
119      seaice_ocean_stress: removed superfluous many metric terms of FV discretization
120                  of stress divergence for non-evp solver
121                  (this part is not tested anywhere)
122      seaice_calc_strainrates: fixed a bug in no-slip boundary conditions,
123                  they were effectively only half slip
124                  affects lab_sea.hb87
125      updated all relevant verification experiments (except lab_sea//output_adm.txt
126        which was left over, but fails at level 7 & 6)
127    
128    checkpoint61j
129    o pkg/seaice: turn a few hard wired parameters into run time parameters
130    o pkg/seaice/exf/monitor: turn netcdf coordinate variable T into model
131      time in seconds as promised by the usints in seaice_monitor and exf_monitor
132    o pkg/mnc: fix the coordinate variables for multi-tile curvi-linear grids
133      that are not cubed-sphere grids
134    o pkg/seaice: fix a bug for the rare case of SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR
135    o pkg/ctrl:
136      fix bug in ctrl_depth_ini.F (EXCH_XYZ was applied to 2-D field xx_r_low)
137    o non-hydrostatic (calc_gw.F):
138      fix viscA4 on CS-grid + fix diagnostics: Wm_Diss & Wm_Advec
139      update output of exp. global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
140    o remove backward compatibility for thetaMin,phiMin
141      (replaced by xgOrigin,ygOrigin on Jan 27, 2009)
142    o pkg/exf: fix a serious bug in exf_set_uv.F: do a rotation of the
143      interpolated wind field not only for curvilineargrid=.true., but also
144      for a rotated grid (rotateGrid=.true.)
145    o pkg/exf: add capability to bypass interpolation for runoff
146      by setting yet another CPP-flag
147    o eesupp/src, B-grid exchange:
148      add simple (6 tiles, non MPI) CS exch + standard interface S/R.
149    o autodiff
150      new CPP option ALLOW_TAMC_SINGLEPREC_COMLEV
151      allows to switch to single-prec common blocks;
152      corresponding switch occurs in tamc.h, integer isbyte
153      TAF store directivs "byte" and "kind" seem equivalent;
154      Most tamc.h have been updated correspondingly.
155    
156    checkpoint61i
157    o autodiff:
158      fix autodiff_sore/_restore indices for obcs
159      (spotted by I. Hoteit, M. Mazloff)
160    o pkg/autodiff, pkg/ctrl:
161      Add flag to reduce all tapelev I/O to single-prec.
162      In data.ctrl set
163        doSinglePrecTapelev = .TRUE.
164    o model/src/ini_curvilinear_grid.F, new grid-file format without EXCH2:
165      check in hack for SX8 compiler (for dxV, dyU); remove it afterwards.
166    o pkg/shelfice: fix bug with SHELFICEconserve flag, prepare for
167      real fresh water flux (not yet)
168    o pkg/mdsio & rw:
169     - add argument & option to S/R MDS_WRITEVEC_LOC (avoid Open/Close & write-meta)
170     - add simple interface S/R to MDS_WRITEVEC_LOC in pkg/rw: WRITE_GLVEC_RX.
171    o pkg/flt:
172     - replace FLT_INIT by 3-steps standard initialization S/R: readparms,
173       init_fixed & ini_varia.
174     - clean-up & simplify linear interpolation S/R:
175       move flt_bilinear.F -> flt_interp_linear.F ; add arg. myThid.
176     - fix some indices (mainly vertical index) ; add IMPLICIT NONE.
177     - more efficient I/O, using new options of MDS_WRITEVEC_LOC S/R.
178     - add vert. coordinate & horiz. indices to output files.
179     - change vertical position in initial condition, from index to depth [m].
180     - store horizontal (decimal) indices i,j in common block (instead of coord. x,y)
181       (easier to get to a curvilinear grid) ; delX,delY no longer used.
182    o pkg/ggl90: a few modifications:
183     - fix bottom boundary condition, and interpolation of KappaE
184       near top and bottom
185     - use same set of viscosity/diffusivity for TKE/momnetum/tracer
186     - add smoothing option as in Blanke and Delecluse (1993) (--> ALLOW_GGL90_SMOOTH)
187     - add a few options for mixing-length upper limit (--> mxlMaxFlag)  
188    o rename thetaMin,phiMin -> xgOrigin,ygOrigin
189      (maintain temporary backward compatibility, until next checkpoint)
190    
191    checkpoint61h
192    o pkg/diagnostics with "periodic averaging diagnostics":
193      fix S/R DIAGNOSTICS_COUNT ; hack diagnostics_out.F to get NetCDF output.
194    o pkg/my82: add missing "_d 0" ; update output of exp. vermix.my82
195    o pkg/obcs: fix loop ranges for balancing code
196    o pkg/flt:
197     - improve criteria for finding which tile owns a float.
198     - fix FLT_EXCH for case without MPI ; apply cyclic BC + fix also the MPI case.
199    o Add well-mixed CO2 box in aim_v23 (which includes changes in pkg
200      aim_compon_interf, ocn_compon_interf, gchem, and dic to get coupling
201      with ocean biogeo)
202    o pkg/flt:
203     - do some cleaning and fix the restart ;
204     - add output.txt in flt_example/results to get this pkg tested.
205    o genmake2: add an EXTENDED_SRC option and flag.
206       for now, cannot be turned on on command line (only through genmake_local)
207    o pkg/mdsio: read/write vector:
208     - singleCpuIO: fix RL/RS in MDSWRITEVECTOR by calling new S/R MDS_BUFFERtoRL/RS
209     - singleCpuIO=F: fix arrType & filePrec & _BYTESWAPIO in both MDSREADVECTOR
210       & MDSWRITEVECTOR by calling new S/R MDS_RD/WR_VEC_RL/RS.
211     - affects gradient of test-exp "bottom_ctrl_5x5" (not due to _BYTESWAPIO)
212      (drop to 4 digits matching for grad). But this test does not look very
213      reliable (was already failling on eddy, fc5, at 6.digits). Update output.
214    
215    checkpoint61g
216    o pkg/flt:
217      - move FLT_CPPOPTIONS.h to FLT_OPTIONS.h (standard name)
218       + make OPTIONS file more standard.
219      - rename S/R MDSREADVECTOR_FLT to FLT_MDSREADVECTOR (to mach src file name)
220      - fix _BYTESWAPIO CPP-Flag
221      - standard reading of file-parameter "data.flt"
222      - fix argument list of S/R FLT_RESTART
223      still need to fix _BYTESWAPIO in pkg/mdsio/mdsio_writevector.F
224    o pkg/obcs: fix a CPP-flag, bug reported by Jeff Blundell
225    o gather_2d.F/scatter_2d.F: suppress vectorisation on NEC SX in respond to
226      a still unfixed compiler/optimization bug
227    
228    checkpoint61f
229    o pkg/seaice, LSR solver: fix bug in GLOBAL_MAX calls ;
230      update results of global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn test.
231    o move getcon.F from model/src to pkg/fizhi.
232    o pkg/exf: add parameter for extrapolation of temp up to the surface
233       and option to prevent negative evap (in bulk_largeyeager04 only).
234    o Prather Advection scheme: fix tracer conservation for divergent flow
235      (e.g., when using NonLin Free-Surface).
236    o kpp: retire KPPmld diagnostics --> use MXLDEPTH instead
237    o gmredi (Visbeck-variable-K):
238     - add more parameters to Visbeck-variable-K.
239     - use a 5 points average for dSigmaR in Visbeck-K calculation
240       (more "homogenous": same stencil and same weights as in dSigmaH)
241     - update output of ideal_2D_oce experiment.
242    o fix CPP-flag REAL4_IS_SLOW, when _RS expands into real*4
243      (#undef REAL4_IS_SLOW)
244     - pkg/mnc/mnc_cw_cvars.F: write _RS-grid variable as netcdf-real*4
245       coordinate variable
246     - pkg/monitor/monitor.F: call mon_printstats_rs for _RS variables
247       (surface forcing fields), removes some of the functionality
248     - model/src/write_grid.F: write _RS variables as RS-netcdf variables
249     - model/src/diags_oceanic_surf_flux.F: fix a few diagnostics, but
250       probably not all: copy _RS surface flux fields to RL field before
251       calling DIAGNOSTICS_FILL
252     - model/inc/CPP_EEMACROS.h: make the _EXCH_*_RS macros expand into
253       real*4 (CALL EXCH_*_RS) versions.
254     - tested in 2 experiments: inverted_barometer & solid-body.cs-32x32x1
255       (generate new output).
256    
257    checkpoint61e
258    o gmredi (Visbeck-variable-K):
259      - fix the "OLD_VISBECK_CALC" option + move the #undef to GMREDI_OPTIONS.h
260      - change computation of Visbeck-K where Slope > Smax :        
261        now: N*min(Slope,Smax) (similar to OLD_VISBECK_CALC with gkw91 taperFct)
262        previously was: M*sqrt(min(Slope,Smax)) ; update ideal_2D_oce output.
263    o bottom-drag in P-coord.: change units of bottomDragLinear & bottomDragQuadratic
264      to be the same as with Z-coord. (i.e., m/s & no-units respectively).
265    o calc_viscosity: fix index range (was wrong for CD-Scheme & explicit Visc)
266    o pkg gmredi, linear & fm07 tapering: put an upper limit on Slope^2 so that Kwz
267      does not become too large (to avoid precision problems in implicit-diffusion
268      solver); update ideal_2D_oce output.
269    o pkg ggl90:
270      - in ggl90_cal.F: compute only one set of visc/diff, used to
271        step forward TKE/T/S/momentum
272      - default value of GGL90viscMax/GGL90diffMax larger and equal (to
273        have Prandlt =1)
274    o gmredi (fm07):
275      - add lower limit on Transition layer thickness + lower limit on 1/lambda
276      - allow to set few more params from data.gmredi
277    o pkg ggl90:
278          - add missing sqrt(2) factor in computation of mixing length
279            scale in ggl90_calc.F
280            (see Eq. (2.35) in Blanke and Delecluse, JPO, 1993)
281    
282    checkpoint61d
283    o adjoint modifs
284      - adapt to new field rhoInSitu
285      - allow to revert from StoreDynVars2D, StoreDynVars3D
286        to individual fields
287        (switches AUTODIFF_USE_OLDSTORE_2D, AUTODIFF_USE_OLDSTORE_3D)
288    o store 3-D (in-situ) density in commom block (DYNVARS.h)
289     - save 1 rho computation.
290     - no longer modify T & S inland when using down_slope pkg.
291    o gad_som : allow to switch to SOM advection for T & S without corresponding
292      pickup files (using new S/R: MDS_CHECK4FILE).
293    o keep removing _BEGIN/_END_MASTER between MDSIO S/R call
294      (for useSingleCpuIO to work in multi-threaded)
295    o pkg/shelfice:
296     - disentangle parameters: retire shelfIceFile in data/PARM05 and substitute
297       with SHELFICEtopoFile in data.shelfice
298     - move code for reading ice shelf topography and modifying hFacC into separate
299       subroutines of the shelfice package
300     - separate initialisation of "fixed" and "variable" variables
301     - kTopC is not (yet) replaced by kSurfC, although this is possible
302    o fix broken diagnostic SIatmFW and changed the units from m/s to kg/m^2/s
303    o add initialisation of deepFac if using Pcoords (new S/R set_grid_factors)
304      and rename:
305      ini_phiref.F          --> set_ref_state.F  (+ set anelastic factors)
306      ini_reference_state.F --> load_ref_files.F (- set anelastic factors)
307    o change FIND_RHO_SCALAR : return rho (instead of rho - rhoConst)
308    
309    checkpoint61c
310    o add option ALLOW_ADDFLUID and run-time selector "selectAddFluid"
311      to add mass source/sink of fluid in the interior (3-D generalisation
312      of oceanic real-fresh water flux).
313    o pkg/monitor: fix recip_dr argument in mon_advcflw2 call (-> advcfl_W_hf_max)
314    o vermix test experiment: switch from LINEAR EOS to MDJWF (not tested before)
315    o new pkg: down_slope
316      density-driven downsloping flow parameterisation (Tellus, 1999, 412-430).
317      - presently, modify T & S inland (dwnslp_calc_rho.F).
318        can be avoided if rho was stored in common bloc and used in calc_phi_hyd.
319      - implementation for ocean in P-coords not tested.
320      - add secondary test to global_ocean.90x40x15 (input.dwnslp) to check this pkg.
321    o move kSurfC,kSurfW & kSurfS from SURFACE.h to GRID.h (next to kLowC)
322      (to facilitate conversion of oceanic pkg to p-coordinate).
323    o change FIND_RHO to FIND_RHO_2D :
324      pass arguments tFld & sFld as local (tile) 2D-arrays ; +fix EOS_CHECK.
325    o new pkg: cheapaml
326    
327    checkpoint61b
328    o exch2:
329      change index bounds in rx2_cube exchanges (new S/R: EXCH2_GET_UV_BOUNDS)
330      - no longer depend on the order sequence (N,S,E,W).
331      - 3rd exchange no longer needed (tested with 24 tiles).
332      - same modif to hand-written adjoint S/R (global_ocean.cs32x15: zero diff)
333      - exch_UV_A-grid readily available (but not yet tested).
334      comment out 3rd exch call and remove copy of V to U at SE & NE face-corners
335      (both are no longer needed) in exch_uv: no effect in forward run; but
336       get truncation error differences with adjoint exch.
337    o exch2:
338     - change index-bounds storage (moved from target to local tile,
339       more intuitive this way) ; rename/remove some variables.
340     - change utils/exch2/matlab-topology-generator & code_mods accordingly.
341    
342    checkpoint61a
343    o exch2/matlab-topology-generator:
344      fix bug in index bounds for N-S internal exchange (hard to tell if this
345      had any effect on the solution).
346    o pkg/mnc: small fix in mnc_handle_err: make sure that length of msgbuf
347      is exceeded
348    o testreport: modify syntax of awk, so that it works also with
349      awk, and not only with nawk and gawk
350    
351    checkpoint61
352    o autodiff
353      Change default for TAF usage by removing argument '-nonew_arg'
354      This changes TAF subroutine argument list (ordering of active var.)
355      Omission of this flag leads to incompatibility w.r.t. TAMC
356      To restore TAMC-compatibility, need following modifs:
357      * use adoptfile tools/adjoint_options/adjoint_tamc_compatibility
358      * use CPP option #define AUTODIFF_TAMC_COMPATIBILITY
359      Tested TAF version is 1.9.22
360      N.B.: exch2 hand-written adjoint code currently not TAMC compatible
361    
362    checkpoint60
363    --->>> This is the last checkpoint for which generating the adjoint
364    --->>> is done via the TAMC-compatibility TAF-flag "-nonewarg"
365    --->>> by default.
366    --->>> Future checkpoints will ommit this flag by default.
367    o pkg/generic_advdiff, os7mp: simplify and avoid division by zero.
368    o pkg/grdchk: Add gradient check to etan0 perturbations.
369    o pkg/exf: read ice area from file (#ifdef ALLOW_ICE_AREAMASK).
370    o pkg/autodiff: more flexibility in zeroadj.
371      model/src: modifying do_oceanic_phys.F accordingly.
372    o pkg/ctrl: Bounds for (kapgm,kapredi,eddypsi) parameter estimation.
373    o model/src and pkg/gmredi: GMREDI_WITH_STABLE_ADJOINT CPP option
374      special setup of gmredi for which the adjoint is stable
375      enough for parameter optimization.
376    o bridging the gap between eddy stress and GM.
377      -> eddyTau is replaced with eddyPsi (eddyTau = f x rho0 x eddyPsi)
378          along with a change in CPP option (now ALLOW_EDDYPSI).
379      -> when using GM w/ GM_AdvForm:
380          The total eddy streamfunction (Psi = eddyPsi + K x Slope)
381          is applied either in the tracer Eq. or in momentum Eq.
382          depending on data.gmredi (intro. GM_InMomAsStress).
383      -> ALLOW_EDDYPSI_CONTROL for estimation purpose.
384      The key modifications are in model/src/taueddy_external_forcing.F
385      pkg/gmredi/gmredi_calc_*F pkg/gmredi/gmredi_*transport.F
386    
387    checkpoint59r
388    o new S/R (pkg/mdsio/mdsio_facef_read.F) reading of sNx+1 x sNy+1 array
389      from per-face file (take S/R READSYMTILE_RS out of ini_curvilinear_grid.F);
390      fix option to read coriolis(@ cell-corner) from files with CS-grid.
391    o pkg/mnc: add some attributes to standard 1D-coordinate variables
392    o pkg/diagnostics: enforce missing_value attribute for scalar variables at
393      mass points, when using mnc for output
394      - add runtime parameter (missing_value, missing_value_int) to override
395        default (which is the value of getcon('UNDEF'))
396    o pkg/mnc: prepare mnc for the actual use of missing values with the
397      diagnostics package: small fix in mnc_cw_readwrite.template and more
398      initialisation of never used fields
399      - replace mnc_common.h and mnc_id_header.h with corresponding upper case
400      versions
401    o pkg/thsice/thsice_ini_vars.F added default initial values so that
402      thermodynamics sea ice solver does not blow up when some initial fields
403      are missing.
404    o move from external_forcing_surf.F to ini_forcing.F
405      the p-coord. hack consisting in using pLoad to set phi0surf ;
406      update output of tutorial_global_oce_in_p (affected @ truncation level).
407    o Freshen up a bit hs94.1x64x5, notably:
408      remove rotationPeriod and tRef=5*0. (adjoint only), and add
409      exactConserv=.TRUE.
410    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
411      change option GAD_ALLOW_SOM_ADVECT to GAD_ALLOW_TS_SOM_ADV which only
412      applies to files where Temperature & Salinity 2nd Order moments are used.
413    o pkg/ptracers: add second-order moment advection schemes (80 and 81);
414      this uses a dynamically allocated internal state data structure
415      (#define PTRACERS_ALLOW_DYN_STATE in PTRACERS_OPTIONS.h)
416      and requires a fortran 90 compiler
417    
418    checkpoint59q
419    o pkg/mom_vecinv: Add energy & enstrophy conserving scheme (selectVortScheme=3)
420       (from Sadourny, described by Burridge & Haseler, ECMWF Rep.4, 1977)
421    o Refresh tutorial_global_oce_biogeo, notably:
422      - change bathymetry (put back seamounts in ACC, use hFacs)
423      - change EOS (POLY3 --> JMD95Z)
424      - use Bryan-Lewis vertical diffusivity
425      - use multidimensional advection
426      - remove old virtual virtual in dic pkg, now done through ptracer pkg
427      - change a couple of parameters in dic pkg
428    o pkg/ctrl: change formula in adctrl_bound.F and add a parameter to ctrl_map_ini_gen.F
429    o pkg/obcs: change default to OBCSfixTopo = .true.,
430      - set OBCSfixTopo=.false. in exp4/input/data.obcs to reproduce old result
431      - replace "debugMode" with "debugLevel .GE. debLevB"
432    o implementation of TAF directives for gchem,cfc,dic
433    o remove "exp5" (replaced by tutorial_deep_convection).
434    o pkg/obcs: add code to fix topography gradients normal to open boundaries;
435      this requires computing the index fields OB_Jn/Js/Ie/Iw in obcs_readparms;
436      the code can be turned on by setting OBCSfixTopo = .true. in data.obcs
437      --> changes results in exp4, seaice_obcs
438    o tutorial_deep_convection :
439      update the set-up and increase resolution and domain size ; start
440      from pseudo initial conditions = output at t=120mn in order to see
441      something happening when running testreport.
442    o pkg/seaice: add os7mp as an advection scheme
443                  add check for advection schemes
444                  add a flag for restoring T and S underneath sea ice
445    o pkg/my82: add netcdf-support and diagnostics
446    o thsice pkg:
447      - Now hsMax limits snow height by turning it into ice following
448        flooding scheme (and now conserving energy)
449      - Slight rewriting of the formula in thsice_calc_thick.F
450      - Parameter rhowi eliminated to be replaced by floodFac = (rhosw-rhoi)/rhos
451      --> changes results of global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn and global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice
452    
453    checkpoint59p
454    o gchem / dic / cfc :
455      - add useDIC, useCFC , read from "data.gchem" (& hold in GCHEM.h);
456      - add new parameter files: "data.dic" & "data.cfc" ;
457      - various re-arrangement in initialisation & header file ;
458      - fix tutorial_global_oce_biogeo for multi-threaded test.
459    o pkg/dic: test for "pickup_dic" file when restarting ;
460      if no pickup-file, can restart with a re-initialised pH (same as it did
461      before) providing pickupStrictlyMatch is set to False.
462    o change argument list of S/R PTRACERS_WRITE_PICKUP & MYPACKAGE_WRITE_PICKUP
463      + fix call to S/R GGL90_WRITE_PICKUP & DIC_WRITE_PICKUP
464    o add a "warning" (to Error msg file) when an Active Tracer is not using AB-2
465      and staggerTimeStep is off (needed for stability of Internal-wave dynamics).
466    o move out of PARAMS.h & data the last pieces of old-ptracer code: tauTr1ClimRelax,
467     & lambdaTr1ClimRelax ; put those 2 params in PTRACERS_PARAMS.h & data.ptracers
468       (note: not clear to me what lambdaTr1ClimRelax is still used for ...)
469    o pkg/mom_vecinv: - new parameter "selectVortScheme" to select which
470       scheme to use for vorticty-term ;
471     - compute upwindVorticity=T case within mom_vi_u/v_coriolis_c4.F
472       (with default selectVortScheme, return to original discretisation)
473     - remove weird combination (e.g.: upwindVorticity & highOrderVorticity)
474    o pkg/seaice: add a line to the summary to indicate grid type (B/C)
475    o in mom_calc_visc, fix average value of viscAh_W & viscA4_W next to the
476      bottom ; only used with variable horizontal viscosity and non-hydrostatic.
477      also fix diagnostics VISCAHW & VISCA4W.
478    
479    checkpoint59o
480    o dome/code/obcs_calc.F: avoid division by zero (detected using gfortran).
481    o change the loop ordering in most gad_*_adv_x.F to improve vectorization:
482      move a few statemens out the main loop into separate loops
483    o pkg/shelfice:
484      - sort out freshwater flux; convert freshwater fluxes to mass fluxes
485        (kg/m^2/s), does not break tests, because in verification/isomip,
486        rhoConstFresh=rhoConst (by accident)
487      - rearrange computation of tLoc, sLoc, pLoc to make code more efficient
488      - move S/R find_rho_scalar, pkg/ecco/sw_ptmp.F, pkg/ecco/sw_adtg.F into
489        new file model/src/seawater.F, so that they are available for all pkgs.
490      - convert potential temperature into in-situ temperature. This changes the
491        isomip tests => update tests
492    o add a flag writePickupAtEnd (default=true) to be able to suppress
493      writing a pickup at the last timestep
494    o tools/mpack-1.6 :
495      - disable automake (not working) and autoconf (not needed).
496      - update to version 1.6.4 which fix MD5 code on some 64 bits platforms
497        also cleaner with much less compilation warnings.
498    o pkg/profiles:
499      rename profiles_interp_mean_genericgrid as profiles_interp_mean_gg
500      (for "less than 32 characters name" compiler requirement)
501    o pkg/obcs and pkg/exf: added capability to specify seaice open boundary
502      conditions that have a different sampling frequency than S/T/U/V obcs
503    o pkg/diagnostics (stats-diags):
504      - fix global Min/Max in case 1 processor get only empty tiles
505    o genmake2: replace (4 times)
506         make genmake_tc_1.o >> genmake_warnings 2>&1
507      with
508         COMM="$CC $CFLAGS -c genmake_tc_1.c"
509         echo $COMM >> genmake_warnings
510         $COMM >> genmake_warnings 2>&1
511      to make genmake2 always see the value of CC as specified in the optfile.
512    o generic_advdiff: - prather advection scheme (SOM) coded for CS-grid.
513      - add diagnostics for 1srt & 2nd Order moments and sub-grid variance.
514      - modify verification advect_cs test to test SOM-advection on CS-grid.
515    o pkg/ctrl:
516      - Rewrite of ctrl_map_ini_ecco.F,
517        introducing a generic routine (ctrl_map_ini_gen.F).
518      - Modification of ctrl_bound/adctrl_bound handling control vector bounds.
519    
520    checkpoint59n
521    o pkg/diagnostics: for large number of diagnostics, store diagnostic mate
522      number in dedicate array "hdiag":
523      - new version of S/R DIAGNOSTICS_ADD2LIST : DIAGNOSTICS_ADDTOLIST
524        with 1 more argument (mate number); modify old version DIAGNOSTICS_ADD2LIST.
525      - many small changes (integer format) for large number of diagnostics
526      - start to use DIAGNOSTICS_ADDTOLIST (necessary for diagnostics with
527        a counter mate) in pkg diagnostics, ptracers, thsice & aim_v23.
528    o add parameter rotateGrid and Euler angles EulerPhi/Theta/Psi. For
529      usingSphericalGrid, this allows to define the rotated grid coordinates
530      via phiMin/thetaMin/dxSpacing/dySpacing, etc., but then re-compute the
531      geographical coordinates according to the inverse of the rotation defined
532      by the Euler angles, so that Coriolis parameter and online-interpolation by
533      exf works with the geographical coordinates on XC/YC/XG/YG.
534      Naturally, this feature does not work with all packages, so some
535      combinations are prohibited in config_summary (flt, flt_zonal, ecco,
536      profiles), because there the coordinates are assumed to be regular
537      spherical grid coordinates.
538    o pkg/gmredi,ctrl,ecco,autodiff,grdchk and model/src,inc:
539      - introduce isopycnal diffusion coefficient control.
540    o tools/adjoint_options:
541      - additional control vector components.
542    o pkg/mnc: have mnc create marginally meaning full coordinate variables
543      (that is the grid indices) if usingCurvilinearGrid and NOT EXCH2
544    o pkg/mypackage:
545      - add example of read/write pickup for state-var ;
546      - add entry points to the main code for state-vars diags & write-pickup.
547    o pkg/exf: rewrite of exf_getffieldrec.F to properly deal with year
548      transitions for useExfYearlyFields
549      - add new subroutine that determines the file to read from for
550        use*YearlyFields = .TRUE. and .FALSE.
551      - add a verification experiment to global_with_exf that tests
552        useExfYearlyFields with USE_EXF_INTERPOLATION defined
553    o pkg/obcs/exf: add useOBCSYearlyFields (=.FALSE.) to obcs with exf in
554      analogy to useExfYearlyFields; rearrange obcs_prescribe_read: two new
555      subroutines (which could be generated from a template, because they are
556      almost identical), for now they are included in obcs_prescribe_read.F for
557      simplicity
558    o pkg/exf:
559      - add a little more diagnostic to exf_interp_read (in analogy to
560        mds_read_field, can be turned off with debugLevel < debugLevA=1)
561      - improve vectorizability of exf_interp for TARGET_NEC_SX, makes code
562        ugly but fast by unrolling short inner loops, inserting a unroll=8
563        directive in routine lagran, and splitting a loop and making do while the
564        outermost loop (the latter requires the intoduction of index arrays)
565    o pkg/obcs: replace obcs_apply_area/heff/hsalt/hsnow with obcs_apply_seaice
566    o pkg/seaice: moved DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE from seaice_model to seaice_dynsolver
567      http://forge.csail.mit.edu/pipermail/mitgcm-devel/2008-January/003173.html
568    o verification/seaice_obcs: updated for restart test and latest options
569    o pkg/seaice: add a new flag SEAICEuseTEM to use a slightly different
570      ice rheology (so-called truncated ellipse, that gets rid of tensile stress);
571      for now this is only available for the C-grid code and also within
572      #ifdef SEAICE_ALLOW_TEM, because this option may slow down the EVP code
573    
574    checkpoint59m
575    o pkg/seaice: use different time constant for melting (SEAICE_gamma_t)
576      and freezing (SEAICE_gamma_t_frz) ice due to mixed layer temperature
577    o gad_som : fix flux output (& diagnostics) to have same units as other  
578      advection scheme fluxes (was previously multiplied by deltaT).  
579    o added verification/seaice_obcs both to test seaice open boundaries
580      and to provide an example matlab scrpt for generating them
581    o added verification/lab_sea/input.salt_plume for testing pkg/salt_plume
582    o pkg/salt_plume: clean up salt_plume_frac.F to
583      remove redundancy in PlumeMethod 1 and 4
584    o pkg/kpp: added saltplume diagnostics
585    o pkg/obcs and pkg/seaice:
586      - do not set uice and vice to zero when OB*icefile are unspecified
587      - OBCS_SEAICE_AVOID_CONVERGENCE is undefined by default
588      - moved seaice tracer obcs after call to seaice_growth
589    o pkg/salt_plume: added various options for salt plume depth
590      criterion and for vertical distribution of the salt
591    
592    checkpoint59l
593    o pkg/ptracers: new version of ptracers pickup:
594      read meta file and write only fields which are needed to restart.
595      ( same logic as main pickup file ; also using pickupStrictlyMatch )
596    o pkg/seaice:
597      - add timescale for melting due to warm mixed layer as a means of
598        setting SEAICE_availHeatFrac more conveniently
599      - add a CPP-flag/runtime parameter check for flooding algorithm
600      - reformulated availHeat in seaice_growth.F to be independent of AREA
601    o change units attribute of EmPmR netcdf variables to kg/m^2/s to reflect recent
602      unit changes
603    o pkg/obcs: added OBCS_SEAICE_AVOID_CONVERGENCE constraint
604    o cg2d.F: add 3 compiler directives that speed up this routine by 30% on a NEC
605      SX vector computer.
606    o pkg/seaice:
607      - removed SEAICE_FFIELDS.h and seaice_get_forcing.F
608        seaice forcing fields can now be read only through pkg/exf
609      - removed some unused halos
610    o no longer write pickup from THE_MODEL_MAIN but always from FORWARD_STEP
611    o pkg/exf: added useRelativeWind EXF_PARAM.h option for subtracting U/VVEL
612      or U/VICE from U/VWIND before computing U/VSTRESS
613    
614    checkpoint59k
615    o pkg/seaice: ICE2WATR=SEAICE_rhoIce/rhoConst for consistency between
616      dynamics and thermodynamics. Set ICE2WATR=0.92 to reproduce older results.
617    o fix un-initialised variable problem (in mom_vecinv & shap_filt):
618      all experiments pass when compile with un-initialised var. checking option.
619    o added pkg/salt_plume
620    o script to test restart (for now, in MITgcm_contrib/jmc_script)
621    o pkg/seaice: new read/write pickup version.
622      read meta file and write only fields which are needed to restart.
623      ( same logic as main pickup file ; also using pickupStrictlyMatch )
624    o pkg/seaice: fix bug in seaice_ocean_stress (call of seaice_calc_strainrates)
625    o lab_sea.hb87: modify the domain & update output.hb87.txt :
626      lat-long grid & no-slip BC in seaice-dynamics produce different sigma12
627      at j=1 & j=Ny+1 : this case is not treated correctly in the restart
628      process. Fixed here by closing the domain at the Northern boundary.
629    o pkg/rw: cleaning-up: call directly new MDSIO S/R MDS_READ/WRITE_FIELD.
630    o pkg/mdsio: add new arguments to MDS_READ/WRITE_FIELD for reading/writing
631      a set of consecutive levels in/from a 3-D array.
632    o pkg/ptracers:
633      use a 2 characters string ioLabel to identify tracer (if more than 99 tracers).
634      to-do: fix pkg/diagnostics when large number of diagnostics are defined.
635    
636    checkpoint59j
637    o in pkgs: dic, obcs, offline, rbcs:
638      standard way to compute coeff. for time interpolation between 2 time reccords
639      which retains full precision (& make results less dependent on compiler).
640      update output of exp: tutorial_cfc_offline & tutorial_global_oce_biogeo.
641    o pkg/cfc: if compiled with exf and seaice, cfc now can use fields from those
642      packages instead of reading ice cover and wind speed separately
643    o split PTRACERS.h in 2 header files: PTRACERS_FIELDS.h & PTRACERS_PARAMS.h
644     (keep a temporary version of PTRACERS.h in verification/OpenAD/code_ad_openad
645      to allow to compile customized code before the update)
646    o cleaning-up:
647      - fix CPP instruction syntax in pkg/obcs
648      - replace (some) call to MDSIO S/R with call to RW interface S/R ; and
649        add #ifdef ALLOW_MDSIO elsewhere (allows to compile without pkg/mdsio)
650      - fix some threads issue in IO parts.
651    o pkg/dic:
652      - add tons of "_d 0" (--> much better testreports !)
653       and then update outputs of tutorial_global_oce_biogeo
654    o pkg/mom_fluxform:
655      add a special version of momentum advection intended to conserve momentum
656      next to a bathymetry step or a coastline edge. (default = off = #undef)
657    o new read/write pickup version:
658      - for now, only implemented for main (mdsio) pickup file.
659      - write out only what is needed to restart; merge pickup_nh , pickup_ph
660        and main pickup together.
661      - read meta file; read only what is needed to restart; stop if a field
662        is missing (if pickupStrictlyMatch=T, = the default) or try to restart
663        if it make sense (even if the restart is not perfect).
664      - if no meta file, assume that pickup to read corresponds exactly to
665        a pickup that would currently be written.
666      - read pickup written in the old format (until checkpoint59i) if it
667        recognizes an old meta file (no field-list).
668      - add a meta file in exp. which starts from a pickup: 2 cases:
669        a) minimal meta file (with just file precision) + pickupStrictlyMatch=F
670         e.g.: global_ocean.90x40x15/input/pickup.0000036000.meta
671        b) a meta file describing the content of the associated pickup file
672         e.g.: tutorial_global_oce_biogeo/input/pickup.0004248000.meta
673    o pkg/mdsio & pkg/rw:
674      - new routine to read a meta file ; new set of routine to read
675        Multiple-fields file (with meta file).
676    o added open boundary conditions capability for seaice
677        HSNOW, HSALT, UICE, and VICE
678    
679    checkpoint59i
680    o adjoint:
681      * fix multiDimAdvection adjoint
682        (partial recomputation problem by TAF for fVerT(:,:,kDown)
683        and comlev1 size definition (maxpass vs. max. number of tracers)
684      * verification/global_ocean.90x45x15 adjoint now tests
685        NLFS and multiDimAdvection using DST3 (=30)
686      * verification/lab_sea now tests multiDimAdvection using DST3 (=30)
687    o pkg/kpp: add "_d 0" to real constant (if missing);
688      update output of exp: natl_box (10.digits); vermix (std, 7.digits)
689      and lab_sea, 3.FW (only 6,4,6 digits match) & AD (8.digits).
690    o prepare for "clever pickup" implementation: add new header file "RESTART.h"
691      for internal parameters related to restart process (formerly from PARAMS.h)
692      and add startAB parameter to argument list of S/R ADAMS_BASHFORTH2.
693    o more standard interface to {PKG}_WRITE_PICKUP with pickup suffix passed
694      as argument. (only atm2d & obcs write_pickup have not yet been updated)
695    o pkg/monitor:
696      - use GLOBAL_SUM_TILE instead of _GLOBAL_SUM
697      - fix mon_stats_rs (statistics over the full domain, even where field is zero)
698      - account for deep Atmosphere factor and density factor (anelastic)
699    o added open boundary conditions capability for seaice HEFF and AREA
700    o pkg/shelfice: add option for convservative form of Hellmer&Olbers (1989)
701      thermodynamics
702      - requires a little reorganization, which affects the testreport results
703        of isomip.htd (only 7 digits of cg2d agree) => update/modify experiment,
704        so that now the conservative form is tested
705      - add a few comments
706    o add missing cvs Header: or Name: in eesupp/*, pkg/* & verification/code*
707    o add a little bit of code to gad_os7mp_adv_?.F to help vectorization
708    o add new diagnostics to seaice: advective, diffusive fluxes (only for
709      multidim-advection, for scheme 2 they are not filled) and transports,
710      thermodynamic growth rates
711    o change units of EmPmR (inside the code, + within coupling interface)
712      from m/s to kg/m2/s (mass flux) but leave input file unchanged.
713      Affects results @ truncation level (cg2d match) and update output of
714       experiments: lab_sea(6), global_ocean.90x40x15(10),
715      global_ocean.cs32x15(11x3,10), natl_box(11), tutorial_global_oce_latlon(11)
716      + adjoint results: global_ocean_ebm(11) and lab_sea (12).
717      Coupled set-up: allow to restart from previous pickups (cpl_oldPickup=T).
718      Next: will retire convertEmP2rUnit (simply using mass2rUnit instead).
719    
720    checkpoint59h
721    o pkg/exf:
722      - improve vectorization by moving if-statement out of loops in
723        exf_mapfields, exf_radiation
724      - exf_bulkformulae.F: introduce 2D fields and vectorize code
725    o pkg/kpp: added the salt plume scheme (ALLOW_SALT_PLUME) to KPP package
726    o testreport:
727      - allow to test for Qnet & SeaIce monitor output; clean-up ALLOW_BULK_OFFLINE
728        monitor & update offline_exf_seaice exp. output.
729      - AD testing: pass/FAIL according to Grad. output accuracy (instead of Cost)
730    o pkg/seaice:
731      - bug fix in the evp solver: boundary conditions were affected be
732        masking of zMax/zMin (changes results)
733      - minor bug fix in boundary conditions in seaice_calc_strainrates
734        (changes results for no_slip)
735      - seaice_lsr.F: make interpolation of eta dependent on boundaries
736      - replace hardcoded lower limit for zeta (zMin) by runtime parameter
737      - add a test to lab_sea, that tests the Hibler and Bryan (1987) ocean
738        stress formulation and no-slip boundary conditions
739    o pkg/ptracers: Temporary fix for PTRACERS_useGMRedi & PTRACERS_useKPP
740      in gad_calc_rhs.F ; add few safety stops in initialisation phase.
741    o pkg/seaice: a first HSALT time stepping equation has been checked in
742    o pkg/seaice: replaced maskW with seaiceMaskU and maskS with seaiceMaskV
743      in seaice_lsr.F; this solves the pkg/seaice-pkg/obcs problem
744      without requiring DO-IF statements
745    o pkg/thsice:
746      use continuous power-law function for partition of energy between lateral
747      melting/freezing and thinning/thickening ; old code using step function
748      still available with #undef THSICE_FRACEN_POWERLAW
749      update output of exp: aim.5l_cs.thSI, global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn & .thsice
750    o testreport: change AD testing : check against results/output_adm.txt
751      using same scripts as for forward test.
752    
753    checkpoint59g
754    o adjoint testing: in preparation for changing testreport:
755      - output format: cost and grad written on separated lines
756      - ad output results in directory "results" (instead of "results_ad")
757    o pkg/seaice: adding ice salinity HSALT as a prognostic variable
758    o pkg/seaice: changes for using pkg/seaice with pkg/obcs
759    o pkg/ecco: allow user defined cost function contributions
760    o testreport:
761      Allow to choose (per experiment) the list of tested output variables
762       and the main variable (used to issue a pass/FAIL ) ;
763      - for now, done by adding the specific list in file: [exp]/input/tr_checklist
764      - default is unchanged: >cg2d< , (T,S,U,V,5 tracers)_[min,max,mean,StD] ;
765      Also modify printing of summary:
766       a) ">" NN "<" indicates the "main" variable (used for pass/FAIL)
767       b) echo the list of tested variables in the individual summary.txt of
768          each experiment.
769    o new S/R GLOBAL_SUM_TILE to compute global sum independently of number of
770      threads and number of processes (with #define GLOBAL_SUM_SEND_RECV)
771      (but still depend on the tile decompostion of the domain).
772    o pkg/seaice: change a discretization detail to make the B-grid code
773      "more symmetric". This change is likely to remove all "ridges/leads" that
774      where quasi-aligned with the grid in B-grid solutions. It may also be
775      the solution to the stress coupling issues with the B-grid.
776    o each tested exp: add a "run" directory with a standard ".cvsignore" file ;
777      remove .cvsignore from input dir. (since testreport no longer run here).
778    o pkg/thsice:
779     - cleaning: move common block out of "THSICE_2DYN.h" (removed) to "THSICE_VARS.h"
780     - fix reshaping of sea-ice just after advection:
781       melt all the ice only if ice-volume is too small.
782     - re-visit lateral/thinning repartition of melting (modifs from May 04, 2007):
783       prevent lateral melting if sea-ice fraction is too close to iceMaskMin ;
784     and update experiment global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn (+start from pickup files).
785    o external_forcing_surf : extend the use of salt_EvPrRn & temp_EvPrRn (fresh-water
786      tracer content) to linFS or no RealFreshWaterFlux ; default remains unchanged.
787    o define mass2rUnit & rUnit2mass as units conversion factor, used for surface
788      forcing. mass2rUnit: from mass per unit area [kg/m2] to r-coordinate unit
789      (z-coord: =1/rhoConst ; p-coord: =gravity) ; rUnit2mass is just the reverse;
790      and remove horiVertRatio (& recip_horiVertRatio). Affects truncation error
791      of exp. global_oce_in_p: 10 16 16 14 16 13 16 16 16 13 13 13 16 13 13 12 16
792      -> update output.txt
793    o pkg/cd_code: add brackets in multiple terms sum (S/R CD_CODE_SCHEME):
794     this affects truncation error: -> update output.txt of exp:
795      global_ocean.90x40x15 (fw&adm), lab_sea (fw&adm) & lab_sea.lsr,
796      ideal_2D_oce, isomip.htd, natl_box, tutorial_global_oce_latlon.
797    
798    checkpoint59f
799    o pkg/autodiff: zero_adj resets an ajoint variable to zero (in adjoint mode)
800    o pkg/ctrl: ctrl_bound  forces parameter corrections to stay in
801      a bounded range (in forward mode)
802    o pkg/ecco, ctrl, autodiff and mom_common:
803     internal parameter controls, completements of implementations
804    o add few EXCH S/R (UV_BGRID, UV_DGRID, SM) for B & D-Grid velocity & 2nd Moment Sxy.
805    o use UV_BGRID exch for dxV,dyU: for now, only with pkg/exch2 & forward ;
806      (not seem any difference in testing results).
807    o pkg/cd_code: use the right EXCH calls (for CS-grid); but problem remains
808       at face corners.
809    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
810     - in GAD.h, define as parameters (iMinAdvR,iMaxAdvR,jMinAdvR,jMaxAdvR)
811      loop range indices for computing vertical advection tendency
812      and do the calculation in the interior only (no overlap) ;
813      for now, only implemented for SOM advection (to save CPU time).
814     - add argument "withSigns" to S/R FILL_CS_CORNER_TR_RL (needed for SOM_xy moment)
815    o exch2 adjoint
816      First set of changes:
817      - add exch2 hand-written adjoint templates
818      - exch2 hand-written no longer use TAF-flag 'nownew_arg'
819        This will require cleanup in pkg/autodiff/*.F
820        (changed routines currently kept separate in verif. code/)
821      - Comment all relevant #ifndef ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC
822        that used to hide exch2 or cubed-sphere specific code
823        (commented via 'cph-exch2')
824    o pkg/seaice
825      - Close southern and western boundaries for UICE/VICE when useOBCS=.TRUE.
826    o pkg/bulk_force: fix loading into Qsw of Short-Wave flux; and update
827       output of global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice .
828    
829    checkpoint59e
830    o exch2: new S/R that only use the cube-tracer (center-position) exchange:
831      for B-grid vector (not yet tested) and C-grid vector (<- only used
832      when option W2_USE_R1_ONLY in W2_OPTIONS.h is defined).
833    o starting implementation of Duffy et al. (GRL 1999) salt plume scheme
834      (#ifdef ALLOW_SALT_PLUME)
835    o gather_2d/scatter_2d: removed halo regions
836    o gmredi: add option (GM_taper_scheme='fm07') for Ferrari & McWilliams 2007
837      scheme and the corresponding test case (under front_relax dir). For now,
838      only available with Skew-flux form and not yet tested in realistic set-up.
839      adjoint: store directives updated, but gradient checks deteriorated,
840      so maybe GM/Redi adjoint is now broken.
841    o seaice adjoint
842      * add AREA, HEFF, HSNOW as control variable
843        (should not change lab_sea results)
844      * CTRL_OPTIONS.h needs new flag: CTRL_SET_OLD_MAXCVARS_40
845    o pkg/seaice:
846      * added computation of saltFlux in seaice_growth;
847        For time being, sea ice salinity is assumed constant
848        contribution of snow flooding to freshening of sea ice is neglected.
849        SEAICE_salinity is set in SEAICE_PARM01 of data.seaice and it
850        defaults to 0.0 in order to maintain backward compatibility.
851        Typical values for SEAICE_salinity are 4 to 10 g/kg.
852      * replaced dRf(1) with dRf(kSurface)*hFacC(kSurface) in seaice_growth.F
853      * added SEAICE_availHeatFrac, which specifies fraction of surface level
854        heat content used to melt or grow ice
855      * commented out cap of HICE: it helps keep ice thinner
856      * reintroduced cap of HEFF via MAX_HEFF and SEAICE_CAP_HEFF option
857      * applied OBCS T/S mask to HEFFM sea ice mask
858    
859    checkpoint59d
860    o standard name: {PKG}_DIAGNOSTICS_STATE to fill diagnostics array
861     for {PKG} state variables, and called from DO_STATEVARS_DIAGS.
862     (keep {PKG}_DIAGNOSTICS_FILL for non-state variables diagnostics)
863    o pkg/gmredi (gmredi_readparms.F): add some missing "_d 0"
864     and change default value of parameter "GM_Small_Number";
865     update output of exp: lab_sea (x2), cfc_example, global_ocean.90x40x15,
866       global_ocean.cs32x15 (x4), global_ocean_ebm, global_with_exf,  
867       tutorial_global_oce_biogeo, tutorial_global_oce_latlon
868    o pkg/ecco: cost function when applying pkg/smooth to controls
869    o pkg/ctrl: add forcingPrecond run time parameter
870    o pkg/seaice:
871     - replace ZMIN=4.e8 with ZMIN=0. in dynsolver.F as in C-grid code
872     - fix bug in metric terms of u-equation in LSR solver (implicit part),
873       changes verification/lab_sea
874     - rearrange implicit part of u-equation in LSR solver to make it easier to
875       read, understand, and debug. This causes changes at the truncation level.
876     - fix (serious) bug in the boundary conditions (sign error in the implicit
877       part) of the LSR solver. Changes all LSR results.
878     - fixed problem with HSNOW initialization to avoid thick snow when AREA
879       is initilized with small values - does not change lab_sea results.
880     - added HsnowFile initialization capability
881    o pkg/smooth: addition to model/src and pkg/ctrl so allow
882     initialization of pkg/smooth and application to control vector
883    o pkg/seaice: fix another bug in the LSR no-slip boundary conditons
884    o dependencies: pkg/profiles requires pkg/cal
885    o pkg/profiles:
886     - added option ALLOW_PROFILES_GENERICGRID
887         -> pkg/profiles can thus be used with any grid (e.g. cs32x15) assuming
888         that interpolation information (grid points and coefficients) is provided
889         within the netcdf input files.
890         -> sample matlab scripts can be found in MITgcm_contrib/gael
891         that allow you to prepare netcdf input files.
892     - also modified: cleaner include statements, cleaner error print statements,
893       cleaner stops when error, and more tests of the netcdf input files consistency.
894    o additional test (in global_ocean.cs32x15) using seaice+thsice pkgs.
895    o pkg/seaice:
896     - move seaice-diagnostics from seaice_do_diags to do_statevars_diags; this
897       requires a new routine: seaice_diagnostics_fill.F
898     - make sure that seaice does not move if not forced (pressure replacement
899       method, Hibler and Ip, 1995), changes results
900     - and new damping criterion for EVP solver according to Hunke, JCP, 2001
901     - SEAICE_evpDampC = > 0. turns it on (615. is the recommended value).
902       It is turned off by default (=-1.), because it changes the results.
903     - make it possible to read AREA from a file, too.
904    
905    checkpoint59c
906    o add S/R and diagnostics for oceanic mixed-layer depth
907    o move GMRedi call after all vertical mixing schemes (including KPP)
908    o pkg/thsice:
909     - ensure iceMask > iceMaskMin : this problem appeared after May-04 modifs
910      (melt only laterally if thin ice): update output of global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice
911    o pkg/obcs:
912     - bug fix for balance code
913    o pkg/seaice:
914      - allow values of SEAICE_elasticParm > 1
915      - add new parameter SEAICE_evpTauRelax as an alternative
916        to SEAICE_elasticParm
917      - make lsr boundary conditions free slip (by default), changes result
918      - add code for no slip boundary conditions for lsr
919      - set minimum of zeta to zero (and not 4e8) (changes results)
920      - add a cap on AREA after advecting AREA if seaice_growth is not called
921    o change calculation of Visbeck K:
922      - no longer depend on tapering scheme; instead, compute slope (limited
923        by GM_maxSlope). this is equivalent to what was comuted before with
924        clipping or linear tappering.
925      - fix vertical averaging (wrong by 1/2 level)
926      - leave the old version (but will not be maintained) within
927        #ifdef OLD_VISBECK_CALC / #endif
928      - update output of exp. ideal_2D_oce
929    o change error catch in calc_r_star to improve vectorization
930    o exf runoff and seaice: remove ALLOW_SEAICE from exf pkg files and
931      add #define ALLOW_RUNOFF in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h (when not using exf).
932    o adjoint:
933      Re-organized adjoint checkpointing according to Matt Mazloff
934      (but with modifs/completions/cleanups)
935      Storing is now bundled into large arrays to optimized I/O
936      (and second step in cleanup of the_main_loop)
937    
938    checkpoint59b
939    o coupler (pkg/atm_ocn_coupler, pkg/ocn_compon_interf, pkg/atm2d):
940      - export/import (between ocean & coupler) fields needed for ocean DIC.
941    o pkg/seaice:
942      - get rid of three more exchanges seaice_calc_viscosities (required
943        different loop boundaries in seaice_lsr and seaice_ocean_stress)
944      - bug fix in seaice_ocean_stress (update of lab_sea required)
945      - reduce loop boundaries to necessary minimum also in seaice_evp
946      - go back to the old way of computing deltaC/Z as the adjoint likes that
947        better
948    o Refresh of tutorial_global_oce_latlon (includes changing salinity-like
949      passive tracer to an Age Tracer) + update output.txt
950    o pkg/exf:
951      - implement A-grid / C-grid selection for wind-stress input files.
952      - clean-up exf_wind.F (remove us, use wspeed instead ; add wStress)
953      for now, in exf_bulk_largeyeager04.F only :
954      - change implementation for case where windspeed + 2. components wind-stress
955        are read-in. AND use rhoConstFresh to convert evap.
956    o pkg/seaice:
957      - use correct EXCH_UV for wind-forcing (on A-grid).
958      - change SEAICE_OPTIONS.h to limit the number of option combinations (regarding
959        SEAICE_EXTERNAL_FORCING & SEAICE_EXTERNAL_FLUXES); add corresponding stops.
960    o pkg/exf:
961      - default EXF options are now set in EXF_OPTIONS.h (ifndef ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC)
962      EXF_INTERPOLATION:
963      - merge global_with_exf/code version of exf_interp_read.F
964        to the main code ;
965      - Add new option: EXF_INTERP_USE_DYNALLOC to use Dynamical Allocation when
966        reading the file ; Important: This options needs to be defined to recover
967        previous code.
968        otherwise, use fixed size array to read in (size=exf_interp_bufferSize).
969      - no longer loose real*8 precision along the way when using exf_iprec=64.
970    o pkg/seaice: rearrangement of common blocks (really needs more cleaning up)
971      - change discretisation of evp-solver in order to avoid another exchange
972        (changes lab_sea) and clean up a little
973      - replace SQRT(MAX(deltaC,SEAICE_EPS)) by MAX(SQRT(deltaC),SEAICE_EPS)
974        help the adjoint (this also changes the results slightly)
975      - add a few "_d 0" where they had been missing in seaice_evp.F
976      - cleaning up: remove unused seaice_calc_rhs.F
977    o pkg/exf: some cleaning-up:
978      - change various "constants" into runtime parameters
979      - cleaned-up Large&Yeager04 routine which should eventually
980        replace exf_bulkformulae.F (changed names of S/R and CPP)
981        and merged various ALLOW_ATM_WIND options
982     only used with thsice pkg (in thsice_get_exf.F):
983      - implement fixed turbulent transfert Coeff over ice (as in Large&Yeager04)
984        which are used when useStabilityFct_overIce=TRUE (= the default)
985      - change default values of ice & snow emissivity and scale downward LW
986        by ice & snow emissivity.
987    o pkg/thsice:
988     fix few little problems, in thsice_calc_thickn.F:
989      - growth vertically (and not laterally) if iceFrac == iceMaskMax
990      - melt only laterally if hIce < hThinIce (as the comments say)
991      and in thsice_extend.F:
992      - allow to form ice even when iceFrac == iceMaskMax (by increasing thickness)
993      - start to form ice as soon as the minimum ice-volume is reachable.
994     update output of test-exp: aim.5l_cs(thSI), global_ocean.cs32x15(thsice),
995      and cpl_aim+ocn
996    o pkg/kpp
997     - move computation of surface related input fields to KPP into a new
998       subroutine kpp_forcing_surf.F
999     - remove wrong (within bi,bj loops) EXCH calls.
1000     - little cleaning (add argument myThid in last position, cvs header ...)
1001     - for now, fix conservation problem by exchanging KPPviscAz (may not
1002       be the best fix)
1003    o pkg/seaice
1004     - check for inconsistent evp parameter/cpp-flag combination
1005     - remove leftover errIO flat for obsolete name list error handling
1006    o OpenAD
1007     - changed verification/OpenAD to full baroclinic setup (including GM/Redi)
1008    
1009    checkpoint59a
1010    o pkg/seaice: some parameter clarifications and a little bit of clean up
1011    o pkg/thsice: rename run-time parameters:
1012       himin       -> hIceMin
1013       himin0      -> hThinIce
1014       hihig       -> hThickIce
1015       i0          -> i0swFrac
1016       transCoef   -> bMeltCoef
1017       frac_energy -> fracMelting
1018      add new parameters: hNewIceMax, fracFreezing, dhSnowLin
1019       with default values (for now) that do not change the results.
1020      remove old version of thsice vars advection in pkg/seaice.
1021    o in FFIELDS.h:
1022      - replace #ifndef ALLOW_EXF  by #ifndef EXCLUDE_FFIELDS_LOAD
1023      - make pLoad & sIceLoad always available (but still only used if
1024         ATMOSPHERIC_LOADING is #define).
1025    o pkg/kpp: replaced _KPP_RL with _RL
1026    o bug fixes for vertical diffusivity computations when both KPP and
1027        3D diffusivity arrays are used; pkg/kpp/kpp_calc_diff_s & _t.F
1028        are no longer updating the vertical diffusivity array
1029        (passed as argument) but are (re-) setting those arrays.
1030    o pkg/seaice: fix bug in evp solver, while doing that
1031      - change (improve?) discretization of stress computations for both
1032        cgrid-lsr and evp solver
1033      - add a new routine to compute strain rates
1034      - the above changes lab_sea results
1035      - add no slip conditions for evp solver (off by default), lsr-version
1036        may follow
1037      - fix exchange for shear at Z-points (does not change lab_sea)
1038      - retire SEAICEuseEVP, instead turn on EVP by setting SEAICE_deltaTevp
1039        (to force the user to pick a time step since there is not "safe" way
1040        of choosing it)
1041      - add principal stress diagnostics
1042      - rearrange fields for evp a little to avoid having to call a: too many
1043        exchanges and b: exchanges for stress trensor components which we do
1044        not have.
1045      - modify Hibler+Bryan (1987) stress coupling so that it reuses information
1046        of evp, complete rewrite for lsr case (latter is does not yet work
1047        in all cases)
1048    o pkg/kpp: add code to have mixing in shelf ice caverns
1049      - add myThid to all kpp routines (long overdue)
1050    
1051    checkpoint59
1052    o pkg/exf:
1053      - fix wind-stress location: defined on A-grid (if ALLOW_ATM_WIND &
1054        ALLOW_BULKFORMULAE or USE_EXF_INTERPOLATION), otherwise, defined on C-grid
1055      - move exf header files from lower_case.h to UPPER_CASE.h ;
1056        add missing cvs Header & Name
1057      - add adjoint routines and flow dirs for newly used exch_uv_agrid routines
1058      - add namelist param. selectStressGridPosition, exf_monFreq
1059      - retire many _CLIM routines, and remove data.exf_clim
1060        + params moved to data.exf
1061        + climsst, climsss now handled by exf_set_gen, i.e.
1062          climss?period=0 refers to constant field,
1063          climss?period=-12 to monthly forcing
1064      - split up namelists in data.exf
1065    o pkg/seaice:
1066      - remove seaice_exch and seaice_exch_uv
1067      - remove superfluous exchange of theta
1068      - add myThid to seaice_budget_ocean/ice
1069      - add new interface for atmospheric wind forcing (C-grid only)
1070        + new routine
1071        + two new field (taux, tauy for stress over ice)
1072        + removed one global field (DAIRN) for C-grid case only
1073    o pkg/thsise
1074      - 2nd set of modifs for thsice adjoint in conjunction with exf
1075    o enable runtime flag useEXF (useCAL is set to .T. if useEXF=.T.)
1076    
1077    checkpoint58y_post
1078    o Added capability for latitudinal dependence of Bryan and Lewis, 1979
1079      vertical diffusivity, similar to that in MOM4; turned on using
1080      #define ALLOW_BL79_LAT_VARY in CPP_OPTIONS.h and specified using
1081      diffKrBL79*, diffKrBLEQ*, and BL79LatVary in runtime data file.
1082    o Added capability for 3D specification of background vertical diffusion
1083      coefficient.  This is done by (i) #define ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR
1084      in CPP_OPTIONS.h and (ii) specifying file diffKrFile in runtime
1085      "data" file that contains the 3D vertical diffusivity coefficients.
1086    o ice dynamics (pkg/seaice) with thsice thermodynamics:
1087      - add code within pkg thsice to advect & diffuse sea-ice fields
1088      similar to (and will replace) what has been added in  seaice_advdiff.F,
1089      but: - conserving Mass, Heat & Salt.
1090           - better when using non-linear advection scheme (not yet fully tested)
1091           - can also be used in atmospheric set-up (for now, only the diffusion).
1092    
1093    checkpoint58x_post
1094    o IO option for global-file compact format:
1095      - add options when generating topology (utils/exch2/matlab-topology-generator)
1096      - add I/O capability (pkg/mdsio).
1097      - adapt utils/matlab/rdmds.m to read this format.
1098      for now long-line format not yet supported by pkg/mdsio (& exch2).
1099    o shelfice: add a few diagnostics
1100    
1101    checkpoint58w_post
1102    o p-coord. non-hydrostatic using reference profile for w <-> omega conversion:
1103      rVel2wUnit & wUnit2rVel are computed from reference profile Tref,Sref
1104      (and replace horiVertRatio in NH code).
1105      Update output of exp.: tutorial_global_oce_in_p (useNHMTerms !)
1106                         and tutorial_plume_on_slope (sensitive to truncation)
1107    o seaice: if ALLOW_ATM_WIND is undefined use wind stress
1108      directly to drive seaice model (C-grid only)
1109    o exf: when input wind-stress (#undef ALLOW_ATM_WIND):
1110     - reintroduce computation of wind from stress,
1111     - compute tau (in exf_bulkformulae.F) from windstress averaged to
1112       mass points to avoid tau = 0
1113     - fix serious bug: (1/3) in Fortran is not the same as (1./3.)
1114    o rdmnc.m: make it work with "global" files created with gluemnc
1115    o rdmnc.m : some improvements in dealing with singleton dimension
1116      (tested on all testreport mnc output files).
1117    o genmake2: disable pkg/profiles if netcdf test fails.
1118    o cpl_aim+ocn exp.: use consistent rhoConstFresh in Atm & Ocn; update output.
1119    o move call to cal_readparms up to make calendar parameters/variable available
1120      to all packages
1121    
1122    checkpoint58v_post
1123    o change EOS (from POLY3 to JMD95P) in global_ocean.90x45x15 to get
1124      useDynP_inEos_Zc tested.
1125    o pkg/exf: changes to properly interpolate/mask/scale initial fields
1126    o utils/matlab/cs_grid/read_cs: routines to speed up reading of CS510 fields
1127      and portions thereof.  See read_cs.txt for description and examples.
1128    o utils/matlab/cs_grid/bk_line: to compute transport through passages,
1129      add a script (grt_circ_bkl.m) to generate broken-line between 2 points,
1130      following the great-circle arc between those 2 points.
1131    o trap un-initialized variable with pathscale compiler on weddell.mit.edu
1132      (thanks to Constantinos): fix few problems and get (almost) all exp to pass.
1133    o 2nd-Order Moment Advection Scheme (Prather, 1986): first check-in
1134     - enable by setting #define GAD_ALLOW_SOM_ADVECT (in GAD_OPTIONS.h)
1135     - used without limiter (AdvScheme=80) or with Prather limiter (AdvScheme=81)
1136     - still needs work (not working with some options ; efficiency to improve)
1137       and serious testing.
1138     - use this scheme for temperature & salinity in 2 advection test exp.:
1139       advect_xy & advect_xz, respectively.
1140    
1141    checkpoint58u_post
1142    o new test-exp: fizhi-cs-32x32x40 (40 levels) to replace the 10 levels.
1143    o move call to INI_FORCING from PACKAGES_INIT_VARIABLES to INITIALISE_VARIA.
1144    o testreport: add option "-skipdir" to skip some test.
1145    o exf: when input wind-stress (#undef ALLOW_ATM_WIND), by-pass turbulent
1146      momentum calculation.
1147    o gad_advection: fix vertAdvecScheme (if different from advectionScheme)
1148    o some cleaning: usePickupBeforeC35 no longer supported ; remove this option.
1149      remove checkpoint.F and the_correction_step.F (no longer used);
1150      do the k loop inside CYCLE_TRACER (supposed to be more efficient).
1151    o add option (linFSConserveTr) to correct for tracer source/sink due to
1152      Linear Free surface
1153    o pkg/seaice: fix a bug in the flooding algorithm: turn off the snow machine
1154    o pkg/thsice: fix reading mnc-pickups
1155    
1156    checkpoint58t_post
1157    o pkg/diagnostics: fix multi-threaded output (when singleCpuIO=F)
1158    o pkg/mdsio:
1159     - clean-up mdsio_readfield.F & mdsio_writefield_new.F and
1160       move to new files: mdsio_read_field.F (S/R MDS_READ_FIELD) &
1161       mdsio_write_field.F (S/R MDS_WRITE_FIELD);
1162     - fix multi-threaded singleCpuIO option in MDS_WRITE_FIELD
1163     - collect old S/R  in one file: mdsio_rw_field.F (now just a call to
1164       either MDS_READ_FIELD or MDS_WRITE_FIELD )
1165     - new S/R (to replace MDSWRITEMETA), which allows to write more
1166       informations (variable names, time ...) to meta files.
1167     - modify rdmds.m to give back the meta file content.
1168    o pkg/diagnostics: change vertical interpolation to be safer, and more
1169       flexible (define p-levels to interpolate to in data.diagnostics);
1170      add argument to S/R DIAGNOSTICS_GET_POINTERS to catch the right
1171       diagnostic pointer.
1172    o pkg/seaice: more cleaning up of seaice_growth, added many comments
1173    o pkg/exf: put runoff0 and runoff1 into the appropriate common block
1174    o fix multi-category seaice:
1175     - change cpp flag SEAICE_MULTILEVEL to more meaningful name:
1176       SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY
1177     - fix short wave heat flux
1178    o pkg/seaice: change default (SEAICE_OPTIONS.h): use C-grid dynamics
1179       and allow to use EVP solver. Change forward lab_sea: test both EVP
1180       solver and LSR solver, and use C-grid dynamics (like lab_sea adjoint)
1181    o Initial check-in of lab_sea adjoint
1182      (very similar to natl_box_adjoint/code_seaice)
1183      * used C-grid and EVP solver
1184      * used KPP, GM/Redi
1185      * uses inAdExact=.TRUE.
1186      * gradient checks fail for both ADM and TLM
1187        due to sensitive snow melt code in seaice_grwoth (look for "JZ")
1188        f.d. gradients actually seem more problematic than ADM, TLM gradients;
1189        issue is related to forward mismatch between g77 an ifort
1190    o pkg/seaice: overhaul of thermodynamics
1191     - growth.F and groatb.F are replaced by new routine seaice_growth.F
1192     - budget.F is replaced by two new routines seaice_budget_ocean/ice.F
1193     - move a few global fields out of SEAICE.h into seaice_growth.F and
1194       make them 2D (FICE/QNETO/ ...)
1195     - remove FO (it is the same as QNETO)
1196     - introduce a few local fields to avoid modifying external fields such
1197       as atemp, etc.
1198    
1199    checkpoint58s_post
1200    o pkg/exf: moved exf_init_runoff.F to exf_init.F and exf_set_gen.F
1201      changed exf_set_gen.F so that
1202        genperiod=0 means input file is one time-constant field and
1203        genperiod=-12 means input file contains 12 monthly means
1204    o CG2D: use pre-computed solver main-diagonal (stored in common block);
1205      this affects truncation error ; generate new output file for exp. which
1206      fails: exp4(12d), fizhi-cs-aqualev20(12d), front_relax(10d),
1207        global_ocean.90x40x15(10d), global_ocean.cs32x15(10d).thsice(11d).viscA4(10d),
1208        ideal_2D_oce(10d), internal_wave(09d), isomip.htd(11d), matrix_example(07d),
1209        MLAdjust(4x11d,12d), natl_box(11d), rotating_tank(12d),
1210        tutorial_global_oce_in_p(10d), tutorial_plume_on_slope(11d),
1211        vermix(12d).ggl90(12d).my82(11d).opps(12d).pp81(11d)
1212    o start implementation of deep-atmosphere and anelastic formulation
1213    o verification: remove 2nd copy of input files and use script "prepare_run"
1214      to make a symbolic link to the 1rst copy (reduce downloaded size by ~81.M)
1215    o mom_common/vecinv/fluxform: fix a few initialisation isssues
1216    o profiles: fix for multithreaded case
1217    
1218    o diagnostics: rename few diags:
1219      s/'PRESSURE'/'RCENTER '/g
1220      s/'TICE    '/'oceFreez'/g
1221      s/'TAUX    '/'oceTAUX '/g
1222      s/'TAUY    '/'oceTAUY '/g
1223      s/'SWFLUX  '/'oceQsw  '/g
1224      s/DIFx/DFxE/g
1225      s/DIFy/DFyE/g
1226      and add few ocean-forcing diagnostics:
1227      atmPload, sIceLoad, oceQnet, oceFWflx, oceSflux, surForcT & surForcS
1228    o modifications to pkg/seaice/growth.F and budget.F, which change results of
1229      lab_sea experiment: HSNOW was sometimes treated as effective and sometimes
1230      as actual snow thickness.  It now refers everywhere to effective snow
1231      thickness, meaning that for non-zero AREA, actual thickness is HEFF/AREA.
1232    
1233    checkpoint58r_post
1234    o modifications to pkg/seaice/growth.F, which change results of
1235      lab_sea experiment: fixes pertain to melting snow over open water, to
1236      masking EVAP under sea ice, and to using the correct AREA variable for
1237      computations of EVAP, PRECIP, HSNOW, and GHEFF
1238    o add ability to read bathy, salt, and theta using MNC (off by def)
1239    o add flooding algorithm and advection of HSNOW for pkg/seaice;
1240      both are turned off by default and do no change any results
1241    o seaice advection with pkg/thsice: a step toward the use of non-linear
1242      advection scheme, but #ifdef or commented out for now (requires more EXCH).
1243  o use standard version of PTRACERS_INI_VARIA in tutorial_tracer_adjsens  o use standard version of PTRACERS_INI_VARIA in tutorial_tracer_adjsens
1244    (identical results) and the standard version of EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD    (identical results) and the standard version of EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD
