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