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