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