5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    checkpoint61a
8    o exch2/matlab-topology-generator:
9      fix bug in index bounds for N-S internal exchange (hard to tell if this
10      had any effect on the solution).
11    o pkg/mnc: small fix in mnc_handle_err: make sure that length of msgbuf
12      is exceeded
13    o testreport: modify syntax of awk, so that it works also with
14      awk, and not only with nawk and gawk
15    
16    checkpoint61
17    o autodiff
18      Change default for TAF usage by removing argument '-nonew_arg'
19      This changes TAF subroutine argument list (ordering of active var.)
20      Omission of this flag leads to incompatibility w.r.t. TAMC
21      To restore TAMC-compatibility, need following modifs:
22      * use adoptfile tools/adjoint_options/adjoint_tamc_compatibility
23      * use CPP option #define AUTODIFF_TAMC_COMPATIBILITY
24      Tested TAF version is 1.9.22
25      N.B.: exch2 hand-written adjoint code currently not TAMC compatible
26    
27    checkpoint60
28    --->>> This is the last checkpoint for which generating the adjoint
29    --->>> is done via the TAMC-compatibility TAF-flag "-nonewarg"
30    --->>> by default.
31    --->>> Future checkpoints will ommit this flag by default.
32    o pkg/generic_advdiff, os7mp: simplify and avoid division by zero.
33    o pkg/grdchk: Add gradient check to etan0 perturbations.
34    o pkg/exf: read ice area from file (#ifdef ALLOW_ICE_AREAMASK).
35    o pkg/autodiff: more flexibility in zeroadj.
36      model/src: modifying do_oceanic_phys.F accordingly.
37    o pkg/ctrl: Bounds for (kapgm,kapredi,eddypsi) parameter estimation.
38    o model/src and pkg/gmredi: GMREDI_WITH_STABLE_ADJOINT CPP option
39      special setup of gmredi for which the adjoint is stable
40      enough for parameter optimization.
41    o bridging the gap between eddy stress and GM.
42      -> eddyTau is replaced with eddyPsi (eddyTau = f x rho0 x eddyPsi)
43          along with a change in CPP option (now ALLOW_EDDYPSI).
44      -> when using GM w/ GM_AdvForm:
45          The total eddy streamfunction (Psi = eddyPsi + K x Slope)
46          is applied either in the tracer Eq. or in momentum Eq.
47          depending on data.gmredi (intro. GM_InMomAsStress).
48      -> ALLOW_EDDYPSI_CONTROL for estimation purpose.
49      The key modifications are in model/src/taueddy_external_forcing.F
50      pkg/gmredi/gmredi_calc_*F pkg/gmredi/gmredi_*transport.F
51    
52    checkpoint59r
53    o new S/R (pkg/mdsio/mdsio_facef_read.F) reading of sNx+1 x sNy+1 array
54      from per-face file (take S/R READSYMTILE_RS out of ini_curvilinear_grid.F);
55      fix option to read coriolis(@ cell-corner) from files with CS-grid.
56    o pkg/mnc: add some attributes to standard 1D-coordinate variables
57    o pkg/diagnostics: enforce missing_value attribute for scalar variables at
58      mass points, when using mnc for output
59      - add runtime parameter (missing_value, missing_value_int) to override
60        default (which is the value of getcon('UNDEF'))
61    o pkg/mnc: prepare mnc for the actual use of missing values with the
62      diagnostics package: small fix in mnc_cw_readwrite.template and more
63      initialisation of never used fields
64      - replace mnc_common.h and mnc_id_header.h with corresponding upper case
65      versions
66    o pkg/thsice/thsice_ini_vars.F added default initial values so that
67      thermodynamics sea ice solver does not blow up when some initial fields
68      are missing.
69    o move from external_forcing_surf.F to ini_forcing.F
70      the p-coord. hack consisting in using pLoad to set phi0surf ;
71      update output of tutorial_global_oce_in_p (affected @ truncation level).
72    o Freshen up a bit hs94.1x64x5, notably:
73      remove rotationPeriod and tRef=5*0. (adjoint only), and add
74      exactConserv=.TRUE.
75    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
76      change option GAD_ALLOW_SOM_ADVECT to GAD_ALLOW_TS_SOM_ADV which only
77      applies to files where Temperature & Salinity 2nd Order moments are used.
78    o pkg/ptracers: add second-order moment advection schemes (80 and 81);
79      this uses a dynamically allocated internal state data structure
80      (#define PTRACERS_ALLOW_DYN_STATE in PTRACERS_OPTIONS.h)
81      and requires a fortran 90 compiler
82    
83    checkpoint59q
84    o pkg/mom_vecinv: Add energy & enstrophy conserving scheme (selectVortScheme=3)
85       (from Sadourny, described by Burridge & Haseler, ECMWF Rep.4, 1977)
86    o Refresh tutorial_global_oce_biogeo, notably:
87      - change bathymetry (put back seamounts in ACC, use hFacs)
88      - change EOS (POLY3 --> JMD95Z)
89      - use Bryan-Lewis vertical diffusivity
90      - use multidimensional advection
91      - remove old virtual virtual in dic pkg, now done through ptracer pkg
92      - change a couple of parameters in dic pkg
93    o pkg/ctrl: change formula in adctrl_bound.F and add a parameter to ctrl_map_ini_gen.F
94    o pkg/obcs: change default to OBCSfixTopo = .true.,
95      - set OBCSfixTopo=.false. in exp4/input/data.obcs to reproduce old result
96      - replace "debugMode" with "debugLevel .GE. debLevB"
97    o implementation of TAF directives for gchem,cfc,dic
98    o remove "exp5" (replaced by tutorial_deep_convection).
99    o pkg/obcs: add code to fix topography gradients normal to open boundaries;
100      this requires computing the index fields OB_Jn/Js/Ie/Iw in obcs_readparms;
101      the code can be turned on by setting OBCSfixTopo = .true. in data.obcs
102      --> changes results in exp4, seaice_obcs
103    o tutorial_deep_convection :
104      update the set-up and increase resolution and domain size ; start
105      from pseudo initial conditions = output at t=120mn in order to see
106      something happening when running testreport.
107    o pkg/seaice: add os7mp as an advection scheme
108                  add check for advection schemes
109                  add a flag for restoring T and S underneath sea ice
110    o pkg/my82: add netcdf-support and diagnostics
111    o thsice pkg:
112      - Now hsMax limits snow height by turning it into ice following
113        flooding scheme (and now conserving energy)
114      - Slight rewriting of the formula in thsice_calc_thick.F
115      - Parameter rhowi eliminated to be replaced by floodFac = (rhosw-rhoi)/rhos
116      --> changes results of global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn and global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice
117    
118    checkpoint59p
119    o gchem / dic / cfc :
120      - add useDIC, useCFC , read from "data.gchem" (& hold in GCHEM.h);
121      - add new parameter files: "data.dic" & "data.cfc" ;
122      - various re-arrangement in initialisation & header file ;
123      - fix tutorial_global_oce_biogeo for multi-threaded test.
124    o pkg/dic: test for "pickup_dic" file when restarting ;
125      if no pickup-file, can restart with a re-initialised pH (same as it did
126      before) providing pickupStrictlyMatch is set to False.
127    o change argument list of S/R PTRACERS_WRITE_PICKUP & MYPACKAGE_WRITE_PICKUP
128      + fix call to S/R GGL90_WRITE_PICKUP & DIC_WRITE_PICKUP
129    o add a "warning" (to Error msg file) when an Active Tracer is not using AB-2
130      and staggerTimeStep is off (needed for stability of Internal-wave dynamics).
131    o move out of PARAMS.h & data the last pieces of old-ptracer code: tauTr1ClimRelax,
132     & lambdaTr1ClimRelax ; put those 2 params in PTRACERS_PARAMS.h & data.ptracers
133       (note: not clear to me what lambdaTr1ClimRelax is still used for ...)
134    o pkg/mom_vecinv: - new parameter "selectVortScheme" to select which
135       scheme to use for vorticty-term ;
136     - compute upwindVorticity=T case within mom_vi_u/v_coriolis_c4.F
137       (with default selectVortScheme, return to original discretisation)
138     - remove weird combination (e.g.: upwindVorticity & highOrderVorticity)
139    o pkg/seaice: add a line to the summary to indicate grid type (B/C)
140    o in mom_calc_visc, fix average value of viscAh_W & viscA4_W next to the
141      bottom ; only used with variable horizontal viscosity and non-hydrostatic.
142      also fix diagnostics VISCAHW & VISCA4W.
143    
144    checkpoint59o
145    o dome/code/obcs_calc.F: avoid division by zero (detected using gfortran).
146    o change the loop ordering in most gad_*_adv_x.F to improve vectorization:
147      move a few statemens out the main loop into separate loops
148    o pkg/shelfice:
149      - sort out freshwater flux; convert freshwater fluxes to mass fluxes
150        (kg/m^2/s), does not break tests, because in verification/isomip,
151        rhoConstFresh=rhoConst (by accident)
152      - rearrange computation of tLoc, sLoc, pLoc to make code more efficient
153      - move S/R find_rho_scalar, pkg/ecco/sw_ptmp.F, pkg/ecco/sw_adtg.F into
154        new file model/src/seawater.F, so that they are available for all pkgs.
155      - convert potential temperature into in-situ temperature. This changes the
156        isomip tests => update tests
157    o add a flag writePickupAtEnd (default=true) to be able to suppress
158      writing a pickup at the last timestep
159    o tools/mpack-1.6 :
160      - disable automake (not working) and autoconf (not needed).
161      - update to version 1.6.4 which fix MD5 code on some 64 bits platforms
162        also cleaner with much less compilation warnings.
163    o pkg/profiles:
164      rename profiles_interp_mean_genericgrid as profiles_interp_mean_gg
165      (for "less than 32 characters name" compiler requirement)
166    o pkg/obcs and pkg/exf: added capability to specify seaice open boundary
167      conditions that have a different sampling frequency than S/T/U/V obcs
168    o pkg/diagnostics (stats-diags):
169      - fix global Min/Max in case 1 processor get only empty tiles
170    o genmake2: replace (4 times)
171         make genmake_tc_1.o >> genmake_warnings 2>&1
172      with
173         COMM="$CC $CFLAGS -c genmake_tc_1.c"
174         echo $COMM >> genmake_warnings
175         $COMM >> genmake_warnings 2>&1
176      to make genmake2 always see the value of CC as specified in the optfile.
177    o generic_advdiff: - prather advection scheme (SOM) coded for CS-grid.
178      - add diagnostics for 1srt & 2nd Order moments and sub-grid variance.
179      - modify verification advect_cs test to test SOM-advection on CS-grid.
180    o pkg/ctrl:
181      - Rewrite of ctrl_map_ini_ecco.F,
182        introducing a generic routine (ctrl_map_ini_gen.F).
183      - Modification of ctrl_bound/adctrl_bound handling control vector bounds.
184    
185    checkpoint59n
186    o pkg/diagnostics: for large number of diagnostics, store diagnostic mate
187      number in dedicate array "hdiag":
188      - new version of S/R DIAGNOSTICS_ADD2LIST : DIAGNOSTICS_ADDTOLIST
189        with 1 more argument (mate number); modify old version DIAGNOSTICS_ADD2LIST.
190      - many small changes (integer format) for large number of diagnostics
191      - start to use DIAGNOSTICS_ADDTOLIST (necessary for diagnostics with
192        a counter mate) in pkg diagnostics, ptracers, thsice & aim_v23.
193    o add parameter rotateGrid and Euler angles EulerPhi/Theta/Psi. For
194      usingSphericalGrid, this allows to define the rotated grid coordinates
195      via phiMin/thetaMin/dxSpacing/dySpacing, etc., but then re-compute the
196      geographical coordinates according to the inverse of the rotation defined
197      by the Euler angles, so that Coriolis parameter and online-interpolation by
198      exf works with the geographical coordinates on XC/YC/XG/YG.
199      Naturally, this feature does not work with all packages, so some
200      combinations are prohibited in config_summary (flt, flt_zonal, ecco,
201      profiles), because there the coordinates are assumed to be regular
202      spherical grid coordinates.
203    o pkg/gmredi,ctrl,ecco,autodiff,grdchk and model/src,inc:
204      - introduce isopycnal diffusion coefficient control.
205    o tools/adjoint_options:
206      - additional control vector components.
207    o pkg/mnc: have mnc create marginally meaning full coordinate variables
208      (that is the grid indices) if usingCurvilinearGrid and NOT EXCH2
209    o pkg/mypackage:
210      - add example of read/write pickup for state-var ;
211      - add entry points to the main code for state-vars diags & write-pickup.
212    o pkg/exf: rewrite of exf_getffieldrec.F to properly deal with year
213      transitions for useExfYearlyFields
214      - add new subroutine that determines the file to read from for
215        use*YearlyFields = .TRUE. and .FALSE.
216      - add a verification experiment to global_with_exf that tests
217        useExfYearlyFields with USE_EXF_INTERPOLATION defined
218    o pkg/obcs/exf: add useOBCSYearlyFields (=.FALSE.) to obcs with exf in
219      analogy to useExfYearlyFields; rearrange obcs_prescribe_read: two new
220      subroutines (which could be generated from a template, because they are
221      almost identical), for now they are included in obcs_prescribe_read.F for
222      simplicity
223    o pkg/exf:
224      - add a little more diagnostic to exf_interp_read (in analogy to
225        mds_read_field, can be turned off with debugLevel < debugLevA=1)
226      - improve vectorizability of exf_interp for TARGET_NEC_SX, makes code
227        ugly but fast by unrolling short inner loops, inserting a unroll=8
228        directive in routine lagran, and splitting a loop and making do while the
229        outermost loop (the latter requires the intoduction of index arrays)
230    o pkg/obcs: replace obcs_apply_area/heff/hsalt/hsnow with obcs_apply_seaice
231    o pkg/seaice: moved DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE from seaice_model to seaice_dynsolver
232      http://forge.csail.mit.edu/pipermail/mitgcm-devel/2008-January/003173.html
233    o verification/seaice_obcs: updated for restart test and latest options
234    o pkg/seaice: add a new flag SEAICEuseTEM to use a slightly different
235      ice rheology (so-called truncated ellipse, that gets rid of tensile stress);
236      for now this is only available for the C-grid code and also within
237      #ifdef SEAICE_ALLOW_TEM, because this option may slow down the EVP code
238    
239    checkpoint59m
240    o pkg/seaice: use different time constant for melting (SEAICE_gamma_t)
241      and freezing (SEAICE_gamma_t_frz) ice due to mixed layer temperature
242    o gad_som : fix flux output (& diagnostics) to have same units as other  
243      advection scheme fluxes (was previously multiplied by deltaT).  
244    o added verification/seaice_obcs both to test seaice open boundaries
245      and to provide an example matlab scrpt for generating them
246    o added verification/lab_sea/input.salt_plume for testing pkg/salt_plume
247    o pkg/salt_plume: clean up salt_plume_frac.F to
248      remove redundancy in PlumeMethod 1 and 4
249    o pkg/kpp: added saltplume diagnostics
250    o pkg/obcs and pkg/seaice:
251      - do not set uice and vice to zero when OB*icefile are unspecified
252      - OBCS_SEAICE_AVOID_CONVERGENCE is undefined by default
253      - moved seaice tracer obcs after call to seaice_growth
254    o pkg/salt_plume: added various options for salt plume depth
255      criterion and for vertical distribution of the salt
256    
257    checkpoint59l
258    o pkg/ptracers: new version of ptracers pickup:
259      read meta file and write only fields which are needed to restart.
260      ( same logic as main pickup file ; also using pickupStrictlyMatch )
261    o pkg/seaice:
262      - add timescale for melting due to warm mixed layer as a means of
263        setting SEAICE_availHeatFrac more conveniently
264      - add a CPP-flag/runtime parameter check for flooding algorithm
265      - reformulated availHeat in seaice_growth.F to be independent of AREA
266    o change units attribute of EmPmR netcdf variables to kg/m^2/s to reflect recent
267      unit changes
268    o pkg/obcs: added OBCS_SEAICE_AVOID_CONVERGENCE constraint
269    o cg2d.F: add 3 compiler directives that speed up this routine by 30% on a NEC
270      SX vector computer.
271    o pkg/seaice:
272      - removed SEAICE_FFIELDS.h and seaice_get_forcing.F
273        seaice forcing fields can now be read only through pkg/exf
274      - removed some unused halos
275    o no longer write pickup from THE_MODEL_MAIN but always from FORWARD_STEP
276    o pkg/exf: added useRelativeWind EXF_PARAM.h option for subtracting U/VVEL
277      or U/VICE from U/VWIND before computing U/VSTRESS
278    
279    checkpoint59k
280    o pkg/seaice: ICE2WATR=SEAICE_rhoIce/rhoConst for consistency between
281      dynamics and thermodynamics. Set ICE2WATR=0.92 to reproduce older results.
282    o fix un-initialised variable problem (in mom_vecinv & shap_filt):
283      all experiments pass when compile with un-initialised var. checking option.
284    o added pkg/salt_plume
285    o script to test restart (for now, in MITgcm_contrib/jmc_script)
286    o pkg/seaice: new read/write pickup version.
287      read meta file and write only fields which are needed to restart.
288      ( same logic as main pickup file ; also using pickupStrictlyMatch )
289    o pkg/seaice: fix bug in seaice_ocean_stress (call of seaice_calc_strainrates)
290    o lab_sea.hb87: modify the domain & update output.hb87.txt :
291      lat-long grid & no-slip BC in seaice-dynamics produce different sigma12
292      at j=1 & j=Ny+1 : this case is not treated correctly in the restart
293      process. Fixed here by closing the domain at the Northern boundary.
294    o pkg/rw: cleaning-up: call directly new MDSIO S/R MDS_READ/WRITE_FIELD.
295    o pkg/mdsio: add new arguments to MDS_READ/WRITE_FIELD for reading/writing
296      a set of consecutive levels in/from a 3-D array.
297    o pkg/ptracers:
298      use a 2 characters string ioLabel to identify tracer (if more than 99 tracers).
299      to-do: fix pkg/diagnostics when large number of diagnostics are defined.
300    
301    checkpoint59j
302    o in pkgs: dic, obcs, offline, rbcs:
303      standard way to compute coeff. for time interpolation between 2 time reccords
304      which retains full precision (& make results less dependent on compiler).
305      update output of exp: tutorial_cfc_offline & tutorial_global_oce_biogeo.
306    o pkg/cfc: if compiled with exf and seaice, cfc now can use fields from those
307      packages instead of reading ice cover and wind speed separately
308    o split PTRACERS.h in 2 header files: PTRACERS_FIELDS.h & PTRACERS_PARAMS.h
309     (keep a temporary version of PTRACERS.h in verification/OpenAD/code_ad_openad
310      to allow to compile customized code before the update)
311    o cleaning-up:
312      - fix CPP instruction syntax in pkg/obcs
313      - replace (some) call to MDSIO S/R with call to RW interface S/R ; and
314        add #ifdef ALLOW_MDSIO elsewhere (allows to compile without pkg/mdsio)
315      - fix some threads issue in IO parts.
316    o pkg/dic:
317      - add tons of "_d 0" (--> much better testreports !)
318       and then update outputs of tutorial_global_oce_biogeo
319    o pkg/mom_fluxform:
320      add a special version of momentum advection intended to conserve momentum
321      next to a bathymetry step or a coastline edge. (default = off = #undef)
322    o new read/write pickup version:
323      - for now, only implemented for main (mdsio) pickup file.
324      - write out only what is needed to restart; merge pickup_nh , pickup_ph
325        and main pickup together.
326      - read meta file; read only what is needed to restart; stop if a field
327        is missing (if pickupStrictlyMatch=T, = the default) or try to restart
328        if it make sense (even if the restart is not perfect).
329      - if no meta file, assume that pickup to read corresponds exactly to
330        a pickup that would currently be written.
331      - read pickup written in the old format (until checkpoint59i) if it
332        recognizes an old meta file (no field-list).
333      - add a meta file in exp. which starts from a pickup: 2 cases:
334        a) minimal meta file (with just file precision) + pickupStrictlyMatch=F
335         e.g.: global_ocean.90x40x15/input/pickup.0000036000.meta
336        b) a meta file describing the content of the associated pickup file
337         e.g.: tutorial_global_oce_biogeo/input/pickup.0004248000.meta
338    o pkg/mdsio & pkg/rw:
339      - new routine to read a meta file ; new set of routine to read
340        Multiple-fields file (with meta file).
341    o added open boundary conditions capability for seaice
342        HSNOW, HSALT, UICE, and VICE
343    
344    checkpoint59i
345    o adjoint:
346      * fix multiDimAdvection adjoint
347        (partial recomputation problem by TAF for fVerT(:,:,kDown)
348        and comlev1 size definition (maxpass vs. max. number of tracers)
349      * verification/global_ocean.90x45x15 adjoint now tests
350        NLFS and multiDimAdvection using DST3 (=30)
351      * verification/lab_sea now tests multiDimAdvection using DST3 (=30)
352    o pkg/kpp: add "_d 0" to real constant (if missing);
353      update output of exp: natl_box (10.digits); vermix (std, 7.digits)
354      and lab_sea, 3.FW (only 6,4,6 digits match) & AD (8.digits).
355    o prepare for "clever pickup" implementation: add new header file "RESTART.h"
356      for internal parameters related to restart process (formerly from PARAMS.h)
357      and add startAB parameter to argument list of S/R ADAMS_BASHFORTH2.
358    o more standard interface to {PKG}_WRITE_PICKUP with pickup suffix passed
359      as argument. (only atm2d & obcs write_pickup have not yet been updated)
360    o pkg/monitor:
361      - use GLOBAL_SUM_TILE instead of _GLOBAL_SUM
362      - fix mon_stats_rs (statistics over the full domain, even where field is zero)
363      - account for deep Atmosphere factor and density factor (anelastic)
364    o added open boundary conditions capability for seaice HEFF and AREA
365    o pkg/shelfice: add option for convservative form of Hellmer&Olbers (1989)
366      thermodynamics
367      - requires a little reorganization, which affects the testreport results
368        of isomip.htd (only 7 digits of cg2d agree) => update/modify experiment,
369        so that now the conservative form is tested
370      - add a few comments
371    o add missing cvs Header: or Name: in eesupp/*, pkg/* & verification/code*
372    o add a little bit of code to gad_os7mp_adv_?.F to help vectorization
373    o add new diagnostics to seaice: advective, diffusive fluxes (only for
374      multidim-advection, for scheme 2 they are not filled) and transports,
375      thermodynamic growth rates
376    o change units of EmPmR (inside the code, + within coupling interface)
377      from m/s to kg/m2/s (mass flux) but leave input file unchanged.
378      Affects results @ truncation level (cg2d match) and update output of
379       experiments: lab_sea(6), global_ocean.90x40x15(10),
380      global_ocean.cs32x15(11x3,10), natl_box(11), tutorial_global_oce_latlon(11)
381      + adjoint results: global_ocean_ebm(11) and lab_sea (12).
382      Coupled set-up: allow to restart from previous pickups (cpl_oldPickup=T).
383      Next: will retire convertEmP2rUnit (simply using mass2rUnit instead).
384    
385    checkpoint59h
386    o pkg/exf:
387      - improve vectorization by moving if-statement out of loops in
388        exf_mapfields, exf_radiation
389      - exf_bulkformulae.F: introduce 2D fields and vectorize code
390    o pkg/kpp: added the salt plume scheme (ALLOW_SALT_PLUME) to KPP package
391    o testreport:
392      - allow to test for Qnet & SeaIce monitor output; clean-up ALLOW_BULK_OFFLINE
393        monitor & update offline_exf_seaice exp. output.
394      - AD testing: pass/FAIL according to Grad. output accuracy (instead of Cost)
395    o pkg/seaice:
396      - bug fix in the evp solver: boundary conditions were affected be
397        masking of zMax/zMin (changes results)
398      - minor bug fix in boundary conditions in seaice_calc_strainrates
399        (changes results for no_slip)
400      - seaice_lsr.F: make interpolation of eta dependent on boundaries
401      - replace hardcoded lower limit for zeta (zMin) by runtime parameter
402      - add a test to lab_sea, that tests the Hibler and Bryan (1987) ocean
403        stress formulation and no-slip boundary conditions
404    o pkg/ptracers: Temporary fix for PTRACERS_useGMRedi & PTRACERS_useKPP
405      in gad_calc_rhs.F ; add few safety stops in initialisation phase.
406    o pkg/seaice: a first HSALT time stepping equation has been checked in
407    o pkg/seaice: replaced maskW with seaiceMaskU and maskS with seaiceMaskV
408      in seaice_lsr.F; this solves the pkg/seaice-pkg/obcs problem
409      without requiring DO-IF statements
410    o pkg/thsice:
411      use continuous power-law function for partition of energy between lateral
412      melting/freezing and thinning/thickening ; old code using step function
413      still available with #undef THSICE_FRACEN_POWERLAW
414      update output of exp: aim.5l_cs.thSI, global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn & .thsice
415    o testreport: change AD testing : check against results/output_adm.txt
416      using same scripts as for forward test.
417    
418    checkpoint59g
419    o adjoint testing: in preparation for changing testreport:
420      - output format: cost and grad written on separated lines
421      - ad output results in directory "results" (instead of "results_ad")
422    o pkg/seaice: adding ice salinity HSALT as a prognostic variable
423    o pkg/seaice: changes for using pkg/seaice with pkg/obcs
424    o pkg/ecco: allow user defined cost function contributions
425    o testreport:
426      Allow to choose (per experiment) the list of tested output variables
427       and the main variable (used to issue a pass/FAIL ) ;
428      - for now, done by adding the specific list in file: [exp]/input/tr_checklist
429      - default is unchanged: >cg2d< , (T,S,U,V,5 tracers)_[min,max,mean,StD] ;
430      Also modify printing of summary:
431       a) ">" NN "<" indicates the "main" variable (used for pass/FAIL)
432       b) echo the list of tested variables in the individual summary.txt of
433          each experiment.
434    o new S/R GLOBAL_SUM_TILE to compute global sum independently of number of
435      threads and number of processes (with #define GLOBAL_SUM_SEND_RECV)
436      (but still depend on the tile decompostion of the domain).
437    o pkg/seaice: change a discretization detail to make the B-grid code
438      "more symmetric". This change is likely to remove all "ridges/leads" that
439      where quasi-aligned with the grid in B-grid solutions. It may also be
440      the solution to the stress coupling issues with the B-grid.
441    o each tested exp: add a "run" directory with a standard ".cvsignore" file ;
442      remove .cvsignore from input dir. (since testreport no longer run here).
443    o pkg/thsice:
444     - cleaning: move common block out of "THSICE_2DYN.h" (removed) to "THSICE_VARS.h"
445     - fix reshaping of sea-ice just after advection:
446       melt all the ice only if ice-volume is too small.
447     - re-visit lateral/thinning repartition of melting (modifs from May 04, 2007):
448       prevent lateral melting if sea-ice fraction is too close to iceMaskMin ;
449     and update experiment global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn (+start from pickup files).
450    o external_forcing_surf : extend the use of salt_EvPrRn & temp_EvPrRn (fresh-water
451      tracer content) to linFS or no RealFreshWaterFlux ; default remains unchanged.
452    o define mass2rUnit & rUnit2mass as units conversion factor, used for surface
453      forcing. mass2rUnit: from mass per unit area [kg/m2] to r-coordinate unit
454      (z-coord: =1/rhoConst ; p-coord: =gravity) ; rUnit2mass is just the reverse;
455      and remove horiVertRatio (& recip_horiVertRatio). Affects truncation error
456      of exp. global_oce_in_p: 10 16 16 14 16 13 16 16 16 13 13 13 16 13 13 12 16
457      -> update output.txt
458    o pkg/cd_code: add brackets in multiple terms sum (S/R CD_CODE_SCHEME):
459     this affects truncation error: -> update output.txt of exp:
460      global_ocean.90x40x15 (fw&adm), lab_sea (fw&adm) & lab_sea.lsr,
461      ideal_2D_oce, isomip.htd, natl_box, tutorial_global_oce_latlon.
462    
463    checkpoint59f
464    o pkg/autodiff: zero_adj resets an ajoint variable to zero (in adjoint mode)
465    o pkg/ctrl: ctrl_bound  forces parameter corrections to stay in
466      a bounded range (in forward mode)
467    o pkg/ecco, ctrl, autodiff and mom_common:
468     internal parameter controls, completements of implementations
469    o add few EXCH S/R (UV_BGRID, UV_DGRID, SM) for B & D-Grid velocity & 2nd Moment Sxy.
470    o use UV_BGRID exch for dxV,dyU: for now, only with pkg/exch2 & forward ;
471      (not seem any difference in testing results).
472    o pkg/cd_code: use the right EXCH calls (for CS-grid); but problem remains
473       at face corners.
474    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
475     - in GAD.h, define as parameters (iMinAdvR,iMaxAdvR,jMinAdvR,jMaxAdvR)
476      loop range indices for computing vertical advection tendency
477      and do the calculation in the interior only (no overlap) ;
478      for now, only implemented for SOM advection (to save CPU time).
479     - add argument "withSigns" to S/R FILL_CS_CORNER_TR_RL (needed for SOM_xy moment)
480    o exch2 adjoint
481      First set of changes:
482      - add exch2 hand-written adjoint templates
483      - exch2 hand-written no longer use TAF-flag 'nownew_arg'
484        This will require cleanup in pkg/autodiff/*.F
485        (changed routines currently kept separate in verif. code/)
486      - Comment all relevant #ifndef ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC
487        that used to hide exch2 or cubed-sphere specific code
488        (commented via 'cph-exch2')
489    o pkg/seaice
490      - Close southern and western boundaries for UICE/VICE when useOBCS=.TRUE.
491    o pkg/bulk_force: fix loading into Qsw of Short-Wave flux; and update
492       output of global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice .
493    
494    checkpoint59e
495    o exch2: new S/R that only use the cube-tracer (center-position) exchange:
496      for B-grid vector (not yet tested) and C-grid vector (<- only used
497      when option W2_USE_R1_ONLY in W2_OPTIONS.h is defined).
498    o starting implementation of Duffy et al. (GRL 1999) salt plume scheme
499      (#ifdef ALLOW_SALT_PLUME)
500    o gather_2d/scatter_2d: removed halo regions
501    o gmredi: add option (GM_taper_scheme='fm07') for Ferrari & McWilliams 2007
502      scheme and the corresponding test case (under front_relax dir). For now,
503      only available with Skew-flux form and not yet tested in realistic set-up.
504      adjoint: store directives updated, but gradient checks deteriorated,
505      so maybe GM/Redi adjoint is now broken.
506    o seaice adjoint
507      * add AREA, HEFF, HSNOW as control variable
508        (should not change lab_sea results)
509      * CTRL_OPTIONS.h needs new flag: CTRL_SET_OLD_MAXCVARS_40
510    o pkg/seaice:
511      * added computation of saltFlux in seaice_growth;
512        For time being, sea ice salinity is assumed constant
513        contribution of snow flooding to freshening of sea ice is neglected.
514        SEAICE_salinity is set in SEAICE_PARM01 of data.seaice and it
515        defaults to 0.0 in order to maintain backward compatibility.
516        Typical values for SEAICE_salinity are 4 to 10 g/kg.
517      * replaced dRf(1) with dRf(kSurface)*hFacC(kSurface) in seaice_growth.F
518      * added SEAICE_availHeatFrac, which specifies fraction of surface level
519        heat content used to melt or grow ice
520      * commented out cap of HICE: it helps keep ice thinner
521      * reintroduced cap of HEFF via MAX_HEFF and SEAICE_CAP_HEFF option
522      * applied OBCS T/S mask to HEFFM sea ice mask
523    
524    checkpoint59d
525    o standard name: {PKG}_DIAGNOSTICS_STATE to fill diagnostics array
526     for {PKG} state variables, and called from DO_STATEVARS_DIAGS.
527     (keep {PKG}_DIAGNOSTICS_FILL for non-state variables diagnostics)
528    o pkg/gmredi (gmredi_readparms.F): add some missing "_d 0"
529     and change default value of parameter "GM_Small_Number";
530     update output of exp: lab_sea (x2), cfc_example, global_ocean.90x40x15,
531       global_ocean.cs32x15 (x4), global_ocean_ebm, global_with_exf,  
532       tutorial_global_oce_biogeo, tutorial_global_oce_latlon
533    o pkg/ecco: cost function when applying pkg/smooth to controls
534    o pkg/ctrl: add forcingPrecond run time parameter
535    o pkg/seaice:
536     - replace ZMIN=4.e8 with ZMIN=0. in dynsolver.F as in C-grid code
537     - fix bug in metric terms of u-equation in LSR solver (implicit part),
538       changes verification/lab_sea
539     - rearrange implicit part of u-equation in LSR solver to make it easier to
540       read, understand, and debug. This causes changes at the truncation level.
541     - fix (serious) bug in the boundary conditions (sign error in the implicit
542       part) of the LSR solver. Changes all LSR results.
543     - fixed problem with HSNOW initialization to avoid thick snow when AREA
544       is initilized with small values - does not change lab_sea results.
545     - added HsnowFile initialization capability
546    o pkg/smooth: addition to model/src and pkg/ctrl so allow
547     initialization of pkg/smooth and application to control vector
548    o pkg/seaice: fix another bug in the LSR no-slip boundary conditons
549    o dependencies: pkg/profiles requires pkg/cal
550    o pkg/profiles:
551     - added option ALLOW_PROFILES_GENERICGRID
552         -> pkg/profiles can thus be used with any grid (e.g. cs32x15) assuming
553         that interpolation information (grid points and coefficients) is provided
554         within the netcdf input files.
555         -> sample matlab scripts can be found in MITgcm_contrib/gael
556         that allow you to prepare netcdf input files.
557     - also modified: cleaner include statements, cleaner error print statements,
558       cleaner stops when error, and more tests of the netcdf input files consistency.
559    o additional test (in global_ocean.cs32x15) using seaice+thsice pkgs.
560    o pkg/seaice:
561     - move seaice-diagnostics from seaice_do_diags to do_statevars_diags; this
562       requires a new routine: seaice_diagnostics_fill.F
563     - make sure that seaice does not move if not forced (pressure replacement
564       method, Hibler and Ip, 1995), changes results
565     - and new damping criterion for EVP solver according to Hunke, JCP, 2001
566     - SEAICE_evpDampC = > 0. turns it on (615. is the recommended value).
567       It is turned off by default (=-1.), because it changes the results.
568     - make it possible to read AREA from a file, too.
569    
570    checkpoint59c
571    o add S/R and diagnostics for oceanic mixed-layer depth
572    o move GMRedi call after all vertical mixing schemes (including KPP)
573    o pkg/thsice:
574     - ensure iceMask > iceMaskMin : this problem appeared after May-04 modifs
575      (melt only laterally if thin ice): update output of global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice
576    o pkg/obcs:
577     - bug fix for balance code
578    o pkg/seaice:
579      - allow values of SEAICE_elasticParm > 1
580      - add new parameter SEAICE_evpTauRelax as an alternative
581        to SEAICE_elasticParm
582      - make lsr boundary conditions free slip (by default), changes result
583      - add code for no slip boundary conditions for lsr
584      - set minimum of zeta to zero (and not 4e8) (changes results)
585      - add a cap on AREA after advecting AREA if seaice_growth is not called
586    o change calculation of Visbeck K:
587      - no longer depend on tapering scheme; instead, compute slope (limited
588        by GM_maxSlope). this is equivalent to what was comuted before with
589        clipping or linear tappering.
590      - fix vertical averaging (wrong by 1/2 level)
591      - leave the old version (but will not be maintained) within
592        #ifdef OLD_VISBECK_CALC / #endif
593      - update output of exp. ideal_2D_oce
594    o change error catch in calc_r_star to improve vectorization
595    o exf runoff and seaice: remove ALLOW_SEAICE from exf pkg files and
596      add #define ALLOW_RUNOFF in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h (when not using exf).
597    o adjoint:
598      Re-organized adjoint checkpointing according to Matt Mazloff
599      (but with modifs/completions/cleanups)
600      Storing is now bundled into large arrays to optimized I/O
601      (and second step in cleanup of the_main_loop)
602    
603    checkpoint59b
604    o coupler (pkg/atm_ocn_coupler, pkg/ocn_compon_interf, pkg/atm2d):
605      - export/import (between ocean & coupler) fields needed for ocean DIC.
606    o pkg/seaice:
607      - get rid of three more exchanges seaice_calc_viscosities (required
608        different loop boundaries in seaice_lsr and seaice_ocean_stress)
609      - bug fix in seaice_ocean_stress (update of lab_sea required)
610      - reduce loop boundaries to necessary minimum also in seaice_evp
611      - go back to the old way of computing deltaC/Z as the adjoint likes that
612        better
613    o Refresh of tutorial_global_oce_latlon (includes changing salinity-like
614      passive tracer to an Age Tracer) + update output.txt
615    o pkg/exf:
616      - implement A-grid / C-grid selection for wind-stress input files.
617      - clean-up exf_wind.F (remove us, use wspeed instead ; add wStress)
618      for now, in exf_bulk_largeyeager04.F only :
619      - change implementation for case where windspeed + 2. components wind-stress
620        are read-in. AND use rhoConstFresh to convert evap.
621    o pkg/seaice:
622      - use correct EXCH_UV for wind-forcing (on A-grid).
623      - change SEAICE_OPTIONS.h to limit the number of option combinations (regarding
624        SEAICE_EXTERNAL_FORCING & SEAICE_EXTERNAL_FLUXES); add corresponding stops.
625    o pkg/exf:
626      - default EXF options are now set in EXF_OPTIONS.h (ifndef ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC)
627      EXF_INTERPOLATION:
628      - merge global_with_exf/code version of exf_interp_read.F
629        to the main code ;
630      - Add new option: EXF_INTERP_USE_DYNALLOC to use Dynamical Allocation when
631        reading the file ; Important: This options needs to be defined to recover
632        previous code.
633        otherwise, use fixed size array to read in (size=exf_interp_bufferSize).
634      - no longer loose real*8 precision along the way when using exf_iprec=64.
635    o pkg/seaice: rearrangement of common blocks (really needs more cleaning up)
636      - change discretisation of evp-solver in order to avoid another exchange
637        (changes lab_sea) and clean up a little
638      - replace SQRT(MAX(deltaC,SEAICE_EPS)) by MAX(SQRT(deltaC),SEAICE_EPS)
639        help the adjoint (this also changes the results slightly)
640      - add a few "_d 0" where they had been missing in seaice_evp.F
641      - cleaning up: remove unused seaice_calc_rhs.F
642    o pkg/exf: some cleaning-up:
643      - change various "constants" into runtime parameters
644      - cleaned-up Large&Yeager04 routine which should eventually
645        replace exf_bulkformulae.F (changed names of S/R and CPP)
646        and merged various ALLOW_ATM_WIND options
647     only used with thsice pkg (in thsice_get_exf.F):
648      - implement fixed turbulent transfert Coeff over ice (as in Large&Yeager04)
649        which are used when useStabilityFct_overIce=TRUE (= the default)
650      - change default values of ice & snow emissivity and scale downward LW
651        by ice & snow emissivity.
652    o pkg/thsice:
653     fix few little problems, in thsice_calc_thickn.F:
654      - growth vertically (and not laterally) if iceFrac == iceMaskMax
655      - melt only laterally if hIce < hThinIce (as the comments say)
656      and in thsice_extend.F:
657      - allow to form ice even when iceFrac == iceMaskMax (by increasing thickness)
658      - start to form ice as soon as the minimum ice-volume is reachable.
659     update output of test-exp: aim.5l_cs(thSI), global_ocean.cs32x15(thsice),
660      and cpl_aim+ocn
661    o pkg/kpp
662     - move computation of surface related input fields to KPP into a new
663       subroutine kpp_forcing_surf.F
664     - remove wrong (within bi,bj loops) EXCH calls.
665     - little cleaning (add argument myThid in last position, cvs header ...)
666     - for now, fix conservation problem by exchanging KPPviscAz (may not
667       be the best fix)
668    o pkg/seaice
669     - check for inconsistent evp parameter/cpp-flag combination
670     - remove leftover errIO flat for obsolete name list error handling
671    o OpenAD
672     - changed verification/OpenAD to full baroclinic setup (including GM/Redi)
673    
674    checkpoint59a
675    o pkg/seaice: some parameter clarifications and a little bit of clean up
676    o pkg/thsice: rename run-time parameters:
677       himin       -> hIceMin
678       himin0      -> hThinIce
679       hihig       -> hThickIce
680       i0          -> i0swFrac
681       transCoef   -> bMeltCoef
682       frac_energy -> fracMelting
683      add new parameters: hNewIceMax, fracFreezing, dhSnowLin
684       with default values (for now) that do not change the results.
685      remove old version of thsice vars advection in pkg/seaice.
686    o in FFIELDS.h:
687      - replace #ifndef ALLOW_EXF  by #ifndef EXCLUDE_FFIELDS_LOAD
688      - make pLoad & sIceLoad always available (but still only used if
689         ATMOSPHERIC_LOADING is #define).
690    o pkg/kpp: replaced _KPP_RL with _RL
691    o bug fixes for vertical diffusivity computations when both KPP and
692        3D diffusivity arrays are used; pkg/kpp/kpp_calc_diff_s & _t.F
693        are no longer updating the vertical diffusivity array
694        (passed as argument) but are (re-) setting those arrays.
695    o pkg/seaice: fix bug in evp solver, while doing that
696      - change (improve?) discretization of stress computations for both
697        cgrid-lsr and evp solver
698      - add a new routine to compute strain rates
699      - the above changes lab_sea results
700      - add no slip conditions for evp solver (off by default), lsr-version
701        may follow
702      - fix exchange for shear at Z-points (does not change lab_sea)
703      - retire SEAICEuseEVP, instead turn on EVP by setting SEAICE_deltaTevp
704        (to force the user to pick a time step since there is not "safe" way
705        of choosing it)
706      - add principal stress diagnostics
707      - rearrange fields for evp a little to avoid having to call a: too many
708        exchanges and b: exchanges for stress trensor components which we do
709        not have.
710      - modify Hibler+Bryan (1987) stress coupling so that it reuses information
711        of evp, complete rewrite for lsr case (latter is does not yet work
712        in all cases)
713    o pkg/kpp: add code to have mixing in shelf ice caverns
714      - add myThid to all kpp routines (long overdue)
715    
716    checkpoint59
717    o pkg/exf:
718      - fix wind-stress location: defined on A-grid (if ALLOW_ATM_WIND &
719        ALLOW_BULKFORMULAE or USE_EXF_INTERPOLATION), otherwise, defined on C-grid
720      - move exf header files from lower_case.h to UPPER_CASE.h ;
721        add missing cvs Header & Name
722      - add adjoint routines and flow dirs for newly used exch_uv_agrid routines
723      - add namelist param. selectStressGridPosition, exf_monFreq
724      - retire many _CLIM routines, and remove data.exf_clim
725        + params moved to data.exf
726        + climsst, climsss now handled by exf_set_gen, i.e.
727          climss?period=0 refers to constant field,
728          climss?period=-12 to monthly forcing
729      - split up namelists in data.exf
730    o pkg/seaice:
731      - remove seaice_exch and seaice_exch_uv
732      - remove superfluous exchange of theta
733      - add myThid to seaice_budget_ocean/ice
734      - add new interface for atmospheric wind forcing (C-grid only)
735        + new routine
736        + two new field (taux, tauy for stress over ice)
737        + removed one global field (DAIRN) for C-grid case only
738    o pkg/thsise
739      - 2nd set of modifs for thsice adjoint in conjunction with exf
740    o enable runtime flag useEXF (useCAL is set to .T. if useEXF=.T.)
741    
742    checkpoint58y_post
743    o Added capability for latitudinal dependence of Bryan and Lewis, 1979
744      vertical diffusivity, similar to that in MOM4; turned on using
745      #define ALLOW_BL79_LAT_VARY in CPP_OPTIONS.h and specified using
746      diffKrBL79*, diffKrBLEQ*, and BL79LatVary in runtime data file.
747    o Added capability for 3D specification of background vertical diffusion
748      coefficient.  This is done by (i) #define ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR
749      in CPP_OPTIONS.h and (ii) specifying file diffKrFile in runtime
750      "data" file that contains the 3D vertical diffusivity coefficients.
751    o ice dynamics (pkg/seaice) with thsice thermodynamics:
752      - add code within pkg thsice to advect & diffuse sea-ice fields
753      similar to (and will replace) what has been added in  seaice_advdiff.F,
754      but: - conserving Mass, Heat & Salt.
755           - better when using non-linear advection scheme (not yet fully tested)
756           - can also be used in atmospheric set-up (for now, only the diffusion).
757    
758    checkpoint58x_post
759    o IO option for global-file compact format:
760      - add options when generating topology (utils/exch2/matlab-topology-generator)
761      - add I/O capability (pkg/mdsio).
762      - adapt utils/matlab/rdmds.m to read this format.
763      for now long-line format not yet supported by pkg/mdsio (& exch2).
764    o shelfice: add a few diagnostics
765    
766    checkpoint58w_post
767    o p-coord. non-hydrostatic using reference profile for w <-> omega conversion:
768      rVel2wUnit & wUnit2rVel are computed from reference profile Tref,Sref
769      (and replace horiVertRatio in NH code).
770      Update output of exp.: tutorial_global_oce_in_p (useNHMTerms !)
771                         and tutorial_plume_on_slope (sensitive to truncation)
772    o seaice: if ALLOW_ATM_WIND is undefined use wind stress
773      directly to drive seaice model (C-grid only)
774    o exf: when input wind-stress (#undef ALLOW_ATM_WIND):
775     - reintroduce computation of wind from stress,
776     - compute tau (in exf_bulkformulae.F) from windstress averaged to
777       mass points to avoid tau = 0
778     - fix serious bug: (1/3) in Fortran is not the same as (1./3.)
779    o rdmnc.m: make it work with "global" files created with gluemnc
780    o rdmnc.m : some improvements in dealing with singleton dimension
781      (tested on all testreport mnc output files).
782    o genmake2: disable pkg/profiles if netcdf test fails.
783    o cpl_aim+ocn exp.: use consistent rhoConstFresh in Atm & Ocn; update output.
784    o move call to cal_readparms up to make calendar parameters/variable available
785      to all packages
786    
787    checkpoint58v_post
788    o change EOS (from POLY3 to JMD95P) in global_ocean.90x45x15 to get
789      useDynP_inEos_Zc tested.
790    o pkg/exf: changes to properly interpolate/mask/scale initial fields
791    o utils/matlab/cs_grid/read_cs: routines to speed up reading of CS510 fields
792      and portions thereof.  See read_cs.txt for description and examples.
793    o utils/matlab/cs_grid/bk_line: to compute transport through passages,
794      add a script (grt_circ_bkl.m) to generate broken-line between 2 points,
795      following the great-circle arc between those 2 points.
796    o trap un-initialized variable with pathscale compiler on weddell.mit.edu
797      (thanks to Constantinos): fix few problems and get (almost) all exp to pass.
798    o 2nd-Order Moment Advection Scheme (Prather, 1986): first check-in
799     - enable by setting #define GAD_ALLOW_SOM_ADVECT (in GAD_OPTIONS.h)
800     - used without limiter (AdvScheme=80) or with Prather limiter (AdvScheme=81)
801     - still needs work (not working with some options ; efficiency to improve)
802       and serious testing.
803     - use this scheme for temperature & salinity in 2 advection test exp.:
804       advect_xy & advect_xz, respectively.
805    
806    checkpoint58u_post
807    o new test-exp: fizhi-cs-32x32x40 (40 levels) to replace the 10 levels.
808    o move call to INI_FORCING from PACKAGES_INIT_VARIABLES to INITIALISE_VARIA.
809    o testreport: add option "-skipdir" to skip some test.
810    o exf: when input wind-stress (#undef ALLOW_ATM_WIND), by-pass turbulent
811      momentum calculation.
812    o gad_advection: fix vertAdvecScheme (if different from advectionScheme)
813    o some cleaning: usePickupBeforeC35 no longer supported ; remove this option.
814      remove checkpoint.F and the_correction_step.F (no longer used);
815      do the k loop inside CYCLE_TRACER (supposed to be more efficient).
816    o add option (linFSConserveTr) to correct for tracer source/sink due to
817      Linear Free surface
818    o pkg/seaice: fix a bug in the flooding algorithm: turn off the snow machine
819    o pkg/thsice: fix reading mnc-pickups
820    
821    checkpoint58t_post
822    o pkg/diagnostics: fix multi-threaded output (when singleCpuIO=F)
823    o pkg/mdsio:
824     - clean-up mdsio_readfield.F & mdsio_writefield_new.F and
825       move to new files: mdsio_read_field.F (S/R MDS_READ_FIELD) &
826       mdsio_write_field.F (S/R MDS_WRITE_FIELD);
827     - fix multi-threaded singleCpuIO option in MDS_WRITE_FIELD
828     - collect old S/R  in one file: mdsio_rw_field.F (now just a call to
829       either MDS_READ_FIELD or MDS_WRITE_FIELD )
830     - new S/R (to replace MDSWRITEMETA), which allows to write more
831       informations (variable names, time ...) to meta files.
832     - modify rdmds.m to give back the meta file content.
833    o pkg/diagnostics: change vertical interpolation to be safer, and more
834       flexible (define p-levels to interpolate to in data.diagnostics);
835      add argument to S/R DIAGNOSTICS_GET_POINTERS to catch the right
836       diagnostic pointer.
837    o pkg/seaice: more cleaning up of seaice_growth, added many comments
838    o pkg/exf: put runoff0 and runoff1 into the appropriate common block
839    o fix multi-category seaice:
840     - change cpp flag SEAICE_MULTILEVEL to more meaningful name:
841       SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY
842     - fix short wave heat flux
843    o pkg/seaice: change default (SEAICE_OPTIONS.h): use C-grid dynamics
844       and allow to use EVP solver. Change forward lab_sea: test both EVP
845       solver and LSR solver, and use C-grid dynamics (like lab_sea adjoint)
846    o Initial check-in of lab_sea adjoint
847      (very similar to natl_box_adjoint/code_seaice)
848      * used C-grid and EVP solver
849      * used KPP, GM/Redi
850      * uses inAdExact=.TRUE.
851      * gradient checks fail for both ADM and TLM
852        due to sensitive snow melt code in seaice_grwoth (look for "JZ")
853        f.d. gradients actually seem more problematic than ADM, TLM gradients;
854        issue is related to forward mismatch between g77 an ifort
855    o pkg/seaice: overhaul of thermodynamics
856     - growth.F and groatb.F are replaced by new routine seaice_growth.F
857     - budget.F is replaced by two new routines seaice_budget_ocean/ice.F
858     - move a few global fields out of SEAICE.h into seaice_growth.F and
859       make them 2D (FICE/QNETO/ ...)
860     - remove FO (it is the same as QNETO)
861     - introduce a few local fields to avoid modifying external fields such
862       as atemp, etc.
863    
864    checkpoint58s_post
865    o pkg/exf: moved exf_init_runoff.F to exf_init.F and exf_set_gen.F
866      changed exf_set_gen.F so that
867        genperiod=0 means input file is one time-constant field and
868        genperiod=-12 means input file contains 12 monthly means
869    o CG2D: use pre-computed solver main-diagonal (stored in common block);
870      this affects truncation error ; generate new output file for exp. which
871      fails: exp4(12d), fizhi-cs-aqualev20(12d), front_relax(10d),
872        global_ocean.90x40x15(10d), global_ocean.cs32x15(10d).thsice(11d).viscA4(10d),
873        ideal_2D_oce(10d), internal_wave(09d), isomip.htd(11d), matrix_example(07d),
874        MLAdjust(4x11d,12d), natl_box(11d), rotating_tank(12d),
875        tutorial_global_oce_in_p(10d), tutorial_plume_on_slope(11d),
876        vermix(12d).ggl90(12d).my82(11d).opps(12d).pp81(11d)
877    o start implementation of deep-atmosphere and anelastic formulation
878    o verification: remove 2nd copy of input files and use script "prepare_run"
879      to make a symbolic link to the 1rst copy (reduce downloaded size by ~81.M)
880    o mom_common/vecinv/fluxform: fix a few initialisation isssues
881    o profiles: fix for multithreaded case
882    
883    o diagnostics: rename few diags:
884      s/'PRESSURE'/'RCENTER '/g
885      s/'TICE    '/'oceFreez'/g
886      s/'TAUX    '/'oceTAUX '/g
887      s/'TAUY    '/'oceTAUY '/g
888      s/'SWFLUX  '/'oceQsw  '/g
889      s/DIFx/DFxE/g
890      s/DIFy/DFyE/g
891      and add few ocean-forcing diagnostics:
892      atmPload, sIceLoad, oceQnet, oceFWflx, oceSflux, surForcT & surForcS
893    o modifications to pkg/seaice/growth.F and budget.F, which change results of
894      lab_sea experiment: HSNOW was sometimes treated as effective and sometimes
895      as actual snow thickness.  It now refers everywhere to effective snow
896      thickness, meaning that for non-zero AREA, actual thickness is HEFF/AREA.
897    
898    checkpoint58r_post
899    o modifications to pkg/seaice/growth.F, which change results of
900      lab_sea experiment: fixes pertain to melting snow over open water, to
901      masking EVAP under sea ice, and to using the correct AREA variable for
902      computations of EVAP, PRECIP, HSNOW, and GHEFF
903    o add ability to read bathy, salt, and theta using MNC (off by def)
904  o add flooding algorithm and advection of HSNOW for pkg/seaice;  o add flooding algorithm and advection of HSNOW for pkg/seaice;
905    both are turned off by default and do no change any results    both are turned off by default and do no change any results
906  o seaice advection with pkg/thsice: a step toward the use of non-linear  o seaice advection with pkg/thsice: a step toward the use of non-linear
