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