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