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