5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o pkg/seaice: vectorize seaice_solve4temp.F
8      - move iterations loops outside of i/j-loops
9      - requires 2D arrays for TB and effConduct
10      - add 2D iceOrNot to replace HICE_ACTUAL.GT.0, as HICE_ACTUAL is
11        modified in this routine
12      - a little bit of clean up, adjusting indentation, etc.
13      - replaced a few TEN**a by exp(a*log(10.)) in new code for better
14        performance and '**TWO' by '**2' (because TWO is a float),
15        replaced ONE, ZERO
16    o eesupp/src:
17       fix flow dir for exch1_z_RX_cube, exch1_uv_RX_cube & exch1_bg_RX_cube
18    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F
19      Revision 1.89 of seaice_growth.F completes the overall october 2010 revision and
20      merging process. The merged routine has two branches, and one activates the 'evolution'
21      branch by setting SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY to undef (at the top of the routine for now).
22      In summary, here is what the '10/10 revision' did consist of
23        part 1: seaice_growth.F revisions 1.71 to 1.75
24          - Preliminary seaice_growth.F clean-up, keeping test results strictly unchanged.
25            The emphasis here was on improving readability (e.g. by trying to use meaningful
26            variable names) and modularity (e.g. by adding arrays to store heff etc. updates).
27        part 1.5:
28          - revising the lab_sea experiment to make it a more useful (i.e. stable
29            and representative of an actual model run). This was done by generating a
30            (winter) pickup to start from, switching back the main experiment dynamic
31            solver from evp to lsr, having one of the experiments use the free drift solution.
32        part 2: seaice_growth.F revisions 1.76 to 1.85
33          - Sorting out hard-coded constants that prevented heat and fresh water conservation.
34          - Sorting out the various fields units and sign (set early on and reset at the end)
35            to avoid numerous scalings/re-scalings. By v1.85 the basic unit for ice, heat and
36            fresh water stock is 'effective ice meters', and >0 implies more ice/snow.
37          - Using tendency terms arrays (d_HEFF* etc.) to alleviate remaining code locks,
38            and simplifying logical expressions to further improve readibility.
39        part 3: seaice_growth.F revisions 1.86 to 1.89
40          - Re-organize the blocks of code more logically.
41          - Merging the '_if.F' pieces that add something new.
42    o pkg/thsice:
43      - vectorize thsice_solve4temp and thsice_get_exf.
44        Problem: thsice_solve4temp has an unvectorizable statement that
45        might also be problematic for TAF
46      - thsice_get_exf: add the ALLOW_BULK_LARGEYEAGER04 CPP-flag. This
47        does not change the verifcation experiment, but will change all
48        experiments that have this flag undefined (not tested in verification);
49        a little reorganization to save a few 2D fields and recomputations
50      - 1st step of revisiting thsice adjoint (major recomp. sorted out)
51    o pkg/obcs: add support for exch2
52      - the position of the boundary and prescribed values are specified using
53        a global domain with exch2 facets stacked
54        - in x for N,S boundaries (like W2_mapIO=-1)
55        - in y for E,W boundaries (so E,W boundaries do not overlap)
56    o pkg/mdsio: add support for writing global sections with exch2
57        file layout is as for obcs described above:
58        - for x-z sections, facets are stacked in x (like W2_mapIO=-1)
59        - for y-z sections, facets are stacked in y
60    o pkg/thsice:
61       - change a few routines for better vectorization: thsice_albedo.F,
62         thsice_step_temp.F, and in thsice_calc_thickn.F. Results are
63         not affected, but in particular the latter routine has changed
64         dramatically (not necessarily easier to read now).
65       - re-arrange calculation in THSICE_SOLVE4TEMP: move outside of i,j loops
66       iteration loop and call to S/R THSICE_GET_BULKF & THSICE_GET_EXF.
67    o verification/lab_sea:
68      - overhaul of the forward model experiments. The main motivation
69        for this revision is that lab_sea has proven quite fragile (when
70        changing the sea-ice code, and switching platforms) to a point
71        when failures were very hard to attribute to specific code problems.
72      - the suspected reason for this fragility is noise amplification by evp so,
73        to start with, we decided to replace evp with lsr in the main experiment.
74      - the input.lsr experiment thus became obsolete and was removed.
75      - it was replaced with the input.fd experiment that uses an
76        analytical "free drift" solution as the ice velocity field.
77      - Taken together, input (lsr), input.fd (free drift) and input.hb87 (evp)
78        will hopefully allow us to discriminate problems due to dynamic solvers
79        from problems due to the thermodynamic code. input.salt_plume (lsr) allows
80        us to test additional options, along with the salt plume package.
81      - Finally a pickup was generated (at the end of a one year run) to
82        make the tests more representative of an actual model run. Previously
83        the tests starting point was a 1m thickness of ice everywhere.
84    o pkg/seaice:
85      - introducing S\R seaice_freedrift.F that compute the
86        analytical solution to an approximate ice momentum
87        equation (i.e. the simple stress/coriolis balance).
88      - define SEAICE_ALLOW_FREEDRIFT to trigger the computation
89        of the free drift velocity field, and enable its use.
90        To actually use the free drift solution as the model ice
91        velocity field set SEAICEuseFREEDRIFT to .TRUE. in data.seaice.
92    o move "useOASIS" from PARAMS.h to EEPARAMS.h and read it from "eedata"
93    
94    checkpoint62l (2010/10/04)
95    o pkg/seaice:
96      -fix the USE_ORIGINAL_SBI version (for variable freezing point);
97      -use "celsius2K" in SEAICE_VARIABLE_FREEZING_POINT and in new
98       version (with USE_ORIGINAL_SBI undef);
99    o add hooks for new packages OASIS, the package will follow
100      (hooks exclude the seaice pkg for now)
101    o pkg/autodiff: ALLOW_AUTODIFF_WHTAPEIO
102      Option to use mdsio_read_whalos.F/mdsio_write_whalos.F,
103      rather than mdsio_readvector.F/mdsio_writevector.F, within
104      adread_adwrite.F to read/write adjoint-related tapes to disk.
105    o eesupp and pkg/mdsio: ALLOW_WHIO
106      Option to write/read 2D fields to files including tiles halos.
107      The main purpose is for adjoint related "tape I/O".
108      The secondary purpose is for debugging phases.
109      A word on those rather specifically intended purposes.
110      The code was meant to be stripped down to the bare minimum.
111      Typically, there is a unique and basic mapping to the global
112      buffer (tile by tile, then proc by proc, then level by level), and
113      byteswaps and meta-files are omitted. Indeed the (*_WH*) code is not
114      meant to generate user friendly outputs of various shapes and forms.
115      Rather it is intended, for the knowledgeabale developers,
116      to be largely independent of the many mdsio options, to allow
117      outputs of tiles+halos in debugging phases and in adjoint runs,
118      and to allow some flexibility in tuning (adoint) I/O depending on each
119      file system behavior. With regard to tuning, most of the potential knobs
120      (to leave files open, to allocate the I/O indep. of usesinglecpuio,
121      to specify directories, to specify the typical size of I/O calls, etc.)
122      are not yet included, and will be added if they prove useful.
123    o pkg/seaice:
124       fix uninitialised arrays in USE_ORIGINAL_SBI version of seaice_solve4temp.F
125    o pkg/seaice:
126       new S/R seaice_solve4temp.F: this is the merged version of Ian Fenty
127       code (seaice_budget_ice_if.F) which enable to recover old standard
128       code (seaice_budget_ice.F) when option USE_ORIGINAL_SBI is defined.
129       temporary: add "#define USE_ORIGINAL_SBI" at the top of seaice_solve4temp.F.
130    o model/src (rStar):
131       use simple average (not area weighted) of rStarFac at U,V point when using
132       vectorInvariant and selectKEscheme=1,3 (consistent with mom. vertical advection)
133       update output of exp. fizhi-cs-32x32x40 and fizhi-cs-aqualev20.
134    
135    checkpoint62k (2010/09/17)
136    o adjoint
137       * changed verification/global_ocean.cs32x15 ; adjoint now tests
138         Adams-Bashforth 3 + NLFS + RSTAR
139       * some more modifs required for ECCO-GODAE v4
140    o pkg/seaice
141       add SEAICE_AGE_VOL option to use volume instead of area for
142       integrating SEAICE_AGE
143    o model/src:
144       first check-in of sigma & hybrid-sigma coordinate code ; also includes
145       non-linear free-surface parts ; but pressure-gradient not yet coded.
146    o pkg/ptracers:
147       option for ptracer to convert Salt Relax into additional EmP.
148        tested in exp. global_ocean.90x40x15.dwnslp (update output)
149    
150    checkpoint62j (2010/08/25)
151    o pkg/ggl90:
152       other minor changes: remove 3-D temp array gTKE (+ add argument myIter)
153    o pkg/dic: car_flux.F, phos_flux.F
154      - reduce number of exp-calls in order to improve performance
155      - clean up a little (replace fields by their macros, etc., fix
156        typo in CPP-flag)
157    o pkg/ggl90: minor changes
158      - GGL90diffKrS was removed --> always use GGL90diffKr
159      - GGL90viscAr was removed --> replaced with GGL90viscArU, GGL90viscArV
160      - hack of mxlMaxFlag=2 --> ensure mixing between first and second level
161        (commented out for now)
162      - change in max/min operations to ensure that smoothing is ok
163      - smoothing of GGL90viscAr was moved to ggl90_calc.F (as done for GGL90diffKr)
164      - always use diffKrNrT as background profile (i.e. never use diffKr field)
165    o pkg/cfc: bug fix, AREA(i,j,1,bi,bj) -> AREA(i,j,bi,bj)
166    o pkg/dic:
167      - model/src/impldiff.F: if TARGET_NEC_SX, extend loop ranges for better
168        vectorization
169      - small bug fix in insol for the unlikely case of a cartesian grid
170      - towards vectorizing the dic package: bio_export.F, car_flux.F, phos_flux.F
171        + now vectorize, which also removes adjoint recomputations;
172        + replace integer maksp1 by _RL maskp1
173        + replace a**x by exp(x*log(a)) in phos_flux.F for speed
174    
175    checkpoint62i (2010/07/21)
176    o pkg/flt:
177      - with OBCS: stop floats which enter the OB region
178    o model/src:
179      - use tempVertAdvScheme & saltVertAdvScheme (instead of horizontal ones)
180        for implicit vertical advection.
181    o pkg/seaice:
182     - account for melting in seaice age evolution.
183     - remove double counting of seaice ridging effect on seaice age.
184    
185    checkpoint62h (2010/06/18)
186    o pkg/exch2:
187     - remove exch2_*xy_rx files: call was replaced with exch2_*3d_rx(myNz=1).
188    o tools/genmake2
189      - remove "-pdefault" option: redundant with the use of "packages.conf";
190      - remove file pkg/pkg_default : set the default as a pkg group
191        ("default_pkg_list") defined in pkg/pkg_groups;
192      - fix for case pkg/pkg_depend is missing (was hanging before);
193      - add option "-pgroups" to specify a different pkg_groups than the default.
194    o verification/adjustment.cs-32x32x1:
195       add a "minimal" set-up test (code_min & input_min) which only compiles
196       eesupp/src and the 2 pkgs (exch2 & debug) which don't need model/src & inc.
197    o tools/genmake2
198      - extend pkg_depend rules to model & eesupp (e.g., if model depend on [pkg]))
199      - fix details of checking for mnc & profile pkg when NetCDF is unavailable.
200    o pkg/exf: merge exf_bulk_largeyeager04 into exf_bulkformulae because these
201      files are nearly the same anyway.
202      Step 1: make exf_bulkformulae look like exf_bulk_largeyeager04:
203       - redefinition of tau(i,i) (by a factor of ustar)
204       - 1./exf(Const/T) -> exf(-Const/T) (big change in the results)
205       - replace rhonil by rhoConstFresh in computation of evap (bug fix)
206       - replace u/vstress=tau*rd*ws*cw by tau*rd*u/vwind (changes results)
207       - replace
208         rd(i,j)= rdn(i,j)/(exf_one - rdn(i,j)/karman*psimh )
209         shn    = sh(i,j,bi,bj)*rd(i,j)/rdn(i,j)
210         by
211         shn    = sh(i,j,bi,bj)/(exf_one - rdn(i,j)/karman*psimh )
212         (changes results)
213       -> exf_bulkformulae v1.22,
214          update verification experiments lab_sea, offline_exf_seaice, seaice_obcs
215          (lab_sea: output.hb87.txt 1.11, output.lsr.txt 1.25, output.salt_plume.txt 1.13,
216                    output.txt 1.63
217           offline_exf_seaice: output.seaicetd.txt 1.7
218           seaice_obcs: output.txt 1.10)
219      Step 2: do the actual merge and remove exf_bulk_largeyeager04.F
220       -> exf_bulkformulae v1.23,
221          unfortunately requires updating lab_sea.salt_plume (6 matching digits),
222          and global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn (only 11 matching digits)
223      Also update output_adm of exp. lab_sea (all 4) and offline_exf_seaice.
224    o adjoint of exch-1:
225     - pass high-level EXCH S/R through TAF (eesupp/src/exch_ad_diff.list)
226       (note: was already like this when using EXCH-2) and remove flow dir
227       and hand-written AD version of high-level EXCH S/R (pkg/autodiff);
228     - provide flow-dir for low-level exch1 S/R (eesupp/src/exch1_ad.flow);
229     - update pkg/exch2 diff list.
230    
231    checkpoint62g (2010/05/19)
232  o eesupp/src (exch-1):  o eesupp/src (exch-1):
233   - split exch_rx.F into Forward S/R (exch1_rx.F) and Adjoint S/R (exch1_rx_ad.F)   - split exch_rx.F into Forward S/R (exch1_rx.F) and Adjoint S/R (exch1_rx_ad.F)
234     and remove argument "simulationMode"; same thing for all exch_*rx_cube.F     and remove argument "simulationMode"; same thing for all exch_*rx_cube.F
