4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o exch2: new S/R that only use the cube-tracer (center-position) exchange:
8      for B-grid vector (not yet tested) and C-grid vector (<- only used
9      when option W2_USE_R1_ONLY in W2_OPTIONS.h is defined).
10    o starting implementation of Duffy et al. (GRL 1999) salt plume scheme
11      (#ifdef ALLOW_SALT_PLUME)
12    o gather_2d/scatter_2d: removed halo regions
13    o gmredi: add option (GM_taper_scheme='fm07') for Ferrari & McWilliams 2007
14      scheme and the corresponding test case (under front_relax dir). For now,
15      only available with Skew-flux form and not yet tested in realistic set-up.
16      adjoint: store directives updated, but gradient checks deteriorated,
17      so maybe GM/Redi adjoint is now broken.
18    o seaice adjoint
19      * add AREA, HEFF, HSNOW as control variable
20        (should not change lab_sea results)
21      * CTRL_OPTIONS.h needs new flag: CTRL_SET_OLD_MAXCVARS_40
22    o pkg/seaice:
23      * added computation of saltFlux in seaice_growth;
24        For time being, sea ice salinity is assumed constant
25        contribution of snow flooding to freshening of sea ice is neglected.
26        SEAICE_salinity is set in SEAICE_PARM01 of data.seaice and it
27        defaults to 0.0 in order to maintain backward compatibility.
28        Typical values for SEAICE_salinity are 4 to 10 g/kg.
29      * replaced dRf(1) with dRf(kSurface)*hFacC(kSurface) in seaice_growth.F
30      * added SEAICE_availHeatFrac, which specifies fraction of surface level
31        heat content used to melt or grow ice
32      * commented out cap of HICE: it helps keep ice thinner
33      * reintroduced cap of HEFF via MAX_HEFF and SEAICE_CAP_HEFF option
34      * applied OBCS T/S mask to HEFFM sea ice mask
35    
36    checkpoint59d
37    o standard name: {PKG}_DIAGNOSTICS_STATE to fill diagnostics array
38     for {PKG} state variables, and called from DO_STATEVARS_DIAGS.
39     (keep {PKG}_DIAGNOSTICS_FILL for non-state variables diagnostics)
40    o pkg/gmredi (gmredi_readparms.F): add some missing "_d 0"
41     and change default value of parameter "GM_Small_Number";
42     update output of exp: lab_sea (x2), cfc_example, global_ocean.90x40x15,
43       global_ocean.cs32x15 (x4), global_ocean_ebm, global_with_exf,  
44       tutorial_global_oce_biogeo, tutorial_global_oce_latlon
45    o pkg/ecco: cost function when applying pkg/smooth to controls
46    o pkg/ctrl: add forcingPrecond run time parameter
47    o pkg/seaice:
48     - replace ZMIN=4.e8 with ZMIN=0. in dynsolver.F as in C-grid code
49     - fix bug in metric terms of u-equation in LSR solver (implicit part),
50       changes verification/lab_sea
51     - rearrange implicit part of u-equation in LSR solver to make it easier to
52       read, understand, and debug. This causes changes at the truncation level.
53     - fix (serious) bug in the boundary conditions (sign error in the implicit
54       part) of the LSR solver. Changes all LSR results.
55     - fixed problem with HSNOW initialization to avoid thick snow when AREA
56       is initilized with small values - does not change lab_sea results.
57     - added HsnowFile initialization capability
58    o pkg/smooth: addition to model/src and pkg/ctrl so allow
59     initialization of pkg/smooth and application to control vector
60    o pkg/seaice: fix another bug in the LSR no-slip boundary conditons
61    o dependencies: pkg/profiles requires pkg/cal
62    o pkg/profiles:
63     - added option ALLOW_PROFILES_GENERICGRID
64         -> pkg/profiles can thus be used with any grid (e.g. cs32x15) assuming
65         that interpolation information (grid points and coefficients) is provided
66         within the netcdf input files.
67         -> sample matlab scripts can be found in MITgcm_contrib/gael
68         that allow you to prepare netcdf input files.
69     - also modified: cleaner include statements, cleaner error print statements,
70       cleaner stops when error, and more tests of the netcdf input files consistency.
71    o additional test (in global_ocean.cs32x15) using seaice+thsice pkgs.
72    o pkg/seaice:
73     - move seaice-diagnostics from seaice_do_diags to do_statevars_diags; this
74       requires a new routine: seaice_diagnostics_fill.F
75     - make sure that seaice does not move if not forced (pressure replacement
76       method, Hibler and Ip, 1995), changes results
77     - and new damping criterion for EVP solver according to Hunke, JCP, 2001
78     - SEAICE_evpDampC = > 0. turns it on (615. is the recommended value).
79       It is turned off by default (=-1.), because it changes the results.
80     - make it possible to read AREA from a file, too.
81    
82    checkpoint59c
83    o add S/R and diagnostics for oceanic mixed-layer depth
84    o move GMRedi call after all vertical mixing schemes (including KPP)
85    o pkg/thsice:
86     - ensure iceMask > iceMaskMin : this problem appeared after May-04 modifs
87      (melt only laterally if thin ice): update output of global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice
88    o pkg/obcs:
89     - bug fix for balance code
90    o pkg/seaice:
91      - allow values of SEAICE_elasticParm > 1
92      - add new parameter SEAICE_evpTauRelax as an alternative
93        to SEAICE_elasticParm
94      - make lsr boundary conditions free slip (by default), changes result
95      - add code for no slip boundary conditions for lsr
96      - set minimum of zeta to zero (and not 4e8) (changes results)
97      - add a cap on AREA after advecting AREA if seaice_growth is not called
98    o change calculation of Visbeck K:
99      - no longer depend on tapering scheme; instead, compute slope (limited
100        by GM_maxSlope). this is equivalent to what was comuted before with
101        clipping or linear tappering.
102      - fix vertical averaging (wrong by 1/2 level)
103      - leave the old version (but will not be maintained) within
104        #ifdef OLD_VISBECK_CALC / #endif
105      - update output of exp. ideal_2D_oce
106    o change error catch in calc_r_star to improve vectorization
107    o exf runoff and seaice: remove ALLOW_SEAICE from exf pkg files and
108      add #define ALLOW_RUNOFF in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h (when not using exf).
109    o adjoint:
110      Re-organized adjoint checkpointing according to Matt Mazloff
111      (but with modifs/completions/cleanups)
112      Storing is now bundled into large arrays to optimized I/O
113      (and second step in cleanup of the_main_loop)
114    
115    checkpoint59b
116    o coupler (pkg/atm_ocn_coupler, pkg/ocn_compon_interf, pkg/atm2d):
117      - export/import (between ocean & coupler) fields needed for ocean DIC.
118    o pkg/seaice:
119      - get rid of three more exchanges seaice_calc_viscosities (required
120        different loop boundaries in seaice_lsr and seaice_ocean_stress)
121      - bug fix in seaice_ocean_stress (update of lab_sea required)
122      - reduce loop boundaries to necessary minimum also in seaice_evp
123      - go back to the old way of computing deltaC/Z as the adjoint likes that
124        better
125    o Refresh of tutorial_global_oce_latlon (includes changing salinity-like
126      passive tracer to an Age Tracer) + update output.txt
127    o pkg/exf:
128      - implement A-grid / C-grid selection for wind-stress input files.
129      - clean-up exf_wind.F (remove us, use wspeed instead ; add wStress)
130      for now, in exf_bulk_largeyeager04.F only :
131      - change implementation for case where windspeed + 2. components wind-stress
132        are read-in. AND use rhoConstFresh to convert evap.
133    o pkg/seaice:
134      - use correct EXCH_UV for wind-forcing (on A-grid).
135      - change SEAICE_OPTIONS.h to limit the number of option combinations (regarding
136        SEAICE_EXTERNAL_FORCING & SEAICE_EXTERNAL_FLUXES); add corresponding stops.
137    o pkg/exf:
138      - default EXF options are now set in EXF_OPTIONS.h (ifndef ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC)
139      EXF_INTERPOLATION:
140      - merge global_with_exf/code version of exf_interp_read.F
141        to the main code ;
142      - Add new option: EXF_INTERP_USE_DYNALLOC to use Dynamical Allocation when
143        reading the file ; Important: This options needs to be defined to recover
144        previous code.
145        otherwise, use fixed size array to read in (size=exf_interp_bufferSize).
146      - no longer loose real*8 precision along the way when using exf_iprec=64.
147    o pkg/seaice: rearrangement of common blocks (really needs more cleaning up)
148      - change discretisation of evp-solver in order to avoid another exchange
149        (changes lab_sea) and clean up a little
150      - replace SQRT(MAX(deltaC,SEAICE_EPS)) by MAX(SQRT(deltaC),SEAICE_EPS)
151        help the adjoint (this also changes the results slightly)
152      - add a few "_d 0" where they had been missing in seaice_evp.F
153      - cleaning up: remove unused seaice_calc_rhs.F
154    o pkg/exf: some cleaning-up:
155      - change various "constants" into runtime parameters
156      - cleaned-up Large&Yeager04 routine which should eventually
157        replace exf_bulkformulae.F (changed names of S/R and CPP)
158        and merged various ALLOW_ATM_WIND options
159     only used with thsice pkg (in thsice_get_exf.F):
160      - implement fixed turbulent transfert Coeff over ice (as in Large&Yeager04)
161        which are used when useStabilityFct_overIce=TRUE (= the default)
162      - change default values of ice & snow emissivity and scale downward LW
163        by ice & snow emissivity.
164    o pkg/thsice:
165     fix few little problems, in thsice_calc_thickn.F:
166      - growth vertically (and not laterally) if iceFrac == iceMaskMax
167      - melt only laterally if hIce < hThinIce (as the comments say)
168      and in thsice_extend.F:
169      - allow to form ice even when iceFrac == iceMaskMax (by increasing thickness)
170      - start to form ice as soon as the minimum ice-volume is reachable.
171     update output of test-exp: aim.5l_cs(thSI), global_ocean.cs32x15(thsice),
172      and cpl_aim+ocn
173    o pkg/kpp
174     - move computation of surface related input fields to KPP into a new
175       subroutine kpp_forcing_surf.F
176     - remove wrong (within bi,bj loops) EXCH calls.
177     - little cleaning (add argument myThid in last position, cvs header ...)
178     - for now, fix conservation problem by exchanging KPPviscAz (may not
179       be the best fix)
180    o pkg/seaice
181     - check for inconsistent evp parameter/cpp-flag combination
182     - remove leftover errIO flat for obsolete name list error handling
183    o OpenAD
184     - changed verification/OpenAD to full baroclinic setup (including GM/Redi)
185    
186    checkpoint59a
187    o pkg/seaice: some parameter clarifications and a little bit of clean up
188    o pkg/thsice: rename run-time parameters:
189       himin       -> hIceMin
190       himin0      -> hThinIce
191       hihig       -> hThickIce
192       i0          -> i0swFrac
193       transCoef   -> bMeltCoef
194       frac_energy -> fracMelting
195      add new parameters: hNewIceMax, fracFreezing, dhSnowLin
196       with default values (for now) that do not change the results.
197      remove old version of thsice vars advection in pkg/seaice.
198    o in FFIELDS.h:
199      - replace #ifndef ALLOW_EXF  by #ifndef EXCLUDE_FFIELDS_LOAD
200      - make pLoad & sIceLoad always available (but still only used if
201         ATMOSPHERIC_LOADING is #define).
202    o pkg/kpp: replaced _KPP_RL with _RL
203    o bug fixes for vertical diffusivity computations when both KPP and
204        3D diffusivity arrays are used.
205    o pkg/seaice: fix bug in evp solver, while doing that
206      - change (improve?) discretization of stress computations for both
207        cgrid-lsr and evp solver
208      - add a new routine to compute strain rates
209      - the above changes lab_sea results
210      - add no slip conditions for evp solver (off by default), lsr-version
211        may follow
212      - fix exchange for shear at Z-points (does not change lab_sea)
213      - retire SEAICEuseEVP, instead turn on EVP by setting SEAICE_deltaTevp
214        (to force the user to pick a time step since there is not "safe" way
215        of choosing it)
216      - add principal stress diagnostics
217      - rearrange fields for evp a little to avoid having to call a: too many
218        exchanges and b: exchanges for stress trensor components which we do
219        not have.
220      - modify Hibler+Bryan (1987) stress coupling so that it reuses information
221        of evp, complete rewrite for lsr case (latter is does not yet work
222        in all cases)
223    o pkg/kpp: add code to have mixing in shelf ice caverns
224      - add myThid to all kpp routines (long overdue)
225    
226    checkpoint59
227    o pkg/exf:
228      - fix wind-stress location: defined on A-grid (if ALLOW_ATM_WIND &
229        ALLOW_BULKFORMULAE or USE_EXF_INTERPOLATION), otherwise, defined on C-grid
230      - move exf header files from lower_case.h to UPPER_CASE.h ;
231        add missing cvs Header & Name
232      - add adjoint routines and flow dirs for newly used exch_uv_agrid routines
233      - add namelist param. selectStressGridPosition, exf_monFreq
234      - retire many _CLIM routines, and remove data.exf_clim
235        + params moved to data.exf
236        + climsst, climsss now handled by exf_set_gen, i.e.
237          climss?period=0 refers to constant field,
238          climss?period=-12 to monthly forcing
239      - split up namelists in data.exf
240    o pkg/seaice:
241      - remove seaice_exch and seaice_exch_uv
242      - remove superfluous exchange of theta
243      - add myThid to seaice_budget_ocean/ice
244      - add new interface for atmospheric wind forcing (C-grid only)
245        + new routine
246        + two new field (taux, tauy for stress over ice)
247        + removed one global field (DAIRN) for C-grid case only
248    o pkg/thsise
249      - 2nd set of modifs for thsice adjoint in conjunction with exf
250    o enable runtime flag useEXF (useCAL is set to .T. if useEXF=.T.)
251    
252    checkpoint58y_post
253    o Added capability for latitudinal dependence of Bryan and Lewis, 1979
254      vertical diffusivity, similar to that in MOM4; turned on using
255      #define ALLOW_BL79_LAT_VARY in CPP_OPTIONS.h and specified using
256      diffKrBL79*, diffKrBLEQ*, and BL79LatVary in runtime data file.
257    o Added capability for 3D specification of background vertical diffusion
258      coefficient.  This is done by (i) #define ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR
259      in CPP_OPTIONS.h and (ii) specifying file diffKrFile in runtime
260      "data" file that contains the 3D vertical diffusivity coefficients.
261    o ice dynamics (pkg/seaice) with thsice thermodynamics:
262      - add code within pkg thsice to advect & diffuse sea-ice fields
263      similar to (and will replace) what has been added in  seaice_advdiff.F,
264      but: - conserving Mass, Heat & Salt.
265           - better when using non-linear advection scheme (not yet fully tested)
266           - can also be used in atmospheric set-up (for now, only the diffusion).
267    
268    checkpoint58x_post
269    o IO option for global-file compact format:
270      - add options when generating topology (utils/exch2/matlab-topology-generator)
271      - add I/O capability (pkg/mdsio).
272      - adapt utils/matlab/rdmds.m to read this format.
273      for now long-line format not yet supported by pkg/mdsio (& exch2).
274    o shelfice: add a few diagnostics
275    
276    checkpoint58w_post
277    o p-coord. non-hydrostatic using reference profile for w <-> omega conversion:
278      rVel2wUnit & wUnit2rVel are computed from reference profile Tref,Sref
279      (and replace horiVertRatio in NH code).
280      Update output of exp.: tutorial_global_oce_in_p (useNHMTerms !)
281                         and tutorial_plume_on_slope (sensitive to truncation)
282    o seaice: if ALLOW_ATM_WIND is undefined use wind stress
283      directly to drive seaice model (C-grid only)
284    o exf: when input wind-stress (#undef ALLOW_ATM_WIND):
285     - reintroduce computation of wind from stress,
286     - compute tau (in exf_bulkformulae.F) from windstress averaged to
287       mass points to avoid tau = 0
288     - fix serious bug: (1/3) in Fortran is not the same as (1./3.)
289    o rdmnc.m: make it work with "global" files created with gluemnc
290    o rdmnc.m : some improvements in dealing with singleton dimension
291      (tested on all testreport mnc output files).
292    o genmake2: disable pkg/profiles if netcdf test fails.
293    o cpl_aim+ocn exp.: use consistent rhoConstFresh in Atm & Ocn; update output.
294    o move call to cal_readparms up to make calendar parameters/variable available
295      to all packages
296    
297    checkpoint58v_post
298    o change EOS (from POLY3 to JMD95P) in global_ocean.90x45x15 to get
299      useDynP_inEos_Zc tested.
300    o pkg/exf: changes to properly interpolate/mask/scale initial fields
301    o utils/matlab/cs_grid/read_cs: routines to speed up reading of CS510 fields
302      and portions thereof.  See read_cs.txt for description and examples.
303    o utils/matlab/cs_grid/bk_line: to compute transport through passages,
304      add a script (grt_circ_bkl.m) to generate broken-line between 2 points,
305      following the great-circle arc between those 2 points.
306    o trap un-initialized variable with pathscale compiler on weddell.mit.edu
307      (thanks to Constantinos): fix few problems and get (almost) all exp to pass.
308    o 2nd-Order Moment Advection Scheme (Prather, 1986): first check-in
309     - enable by setting #define GAD_ALLOW_SOM_ADVECT (in GAD_OPTIONS.h)
310     - used without limiter (AdvScheme=80) or with Prather limiter (AdvScheme=81)
311     - still needs work (not working with some options ; efficiency to improve)
312       and serious testing.
313     - use this scheme for temperature & salinity in 2 advection test exp.:
314       advect_xy & advect_xz, respectively.
315    
316    checkpoint58u_post
317    o new test-exp: fizhi-cs-32x32x40 (40 levels) to replace the 10 levels.
318  o move call to INI_FORCING from PACKAGES_INIT_VARIABLES to INITIALISE_VARIA.  o move call to INI_FORCING from PACKAGES_INIT_VARIABLES to INITIALISE_VARIA.
319  o testreport: add option "-skipdir" to skip some test.  o testreport: add option "-skipdir" to skip some test.
320  o exf: when input wind-stress (#undef ALLOW_ATM_WIND), by-pass turbulent  o exf: when input wind-stress (#undef ALLOW_ATM_WIND), by-pass turbulent
