4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o pkg/ctrl:
8     - ctrl_obcsbal.F, ctrl_obcsvol.F: replace last calls of ctrl_getrec by
9       ctrl_get_gen_rec, put a stop statement into ctrl_getrec. Remove
10       unused and superfluous variables
11     - ctrl_get_gen_rec.F: catch the case of xx_genperiod=0.
12    o pkg/ecco
13     - enable adjoint of Stevens OB
14    o pkg/ctrl/ecco/grdchk:
15      - remove global declaration of tmpfldx/yz and tmpfldx/yz2.
16        Fortunately, we do not have any tests for the numerous cpp-flagged
17        option of "obcs as control parameters" so we will never know
18        if this is an improvement (but at least now things compile).
19      - remove an obsolete initialization from ecco_cost_init_barfiles.F
20      - fix some problems within never used ifdefs to make the code compile
21    o pkg/obcs:
22     - Refine Interior mask definition to work with more complex OB (e.g.
23       if OB_Ie < OB_Iw); In case default setting is not sufficient, allows to
24       read in Interior mask from file. Check if Interior mask is consistent
25       with OB list of indices.
26    o pkg/seaice
27     - beginning code for a seaice tracer package,
28       but currently only used for seaice age: SEAICE_AGE
29       SEAICE_num = 4
30       iTracer = 1: area-weighted ice age
31               = 2: volume-weighted ice age
32               = 3, 4: template for one-year vs. multi-year ice
33       data.seaice has new namelist SEAICE_PARM03 for arrays related to
34       SEAICE_num
35    
36    checkpoint62t (2011/03/05)
37    o pkg/obcs:
38     - obcs_apply_uv.F: change to a 2 steps method, first tangential component;
39       then normal component. This ensures that the normal component is set
40       correctly even when it conficts with tangential setting from an other OB.
41       Affects results of test-experiment seaice_obcs: update the output.txt
42    o pkg/obcs:
43     - add code to monitor statistics of dynamical fields at OB.
44     - take OBCS_BALANCE code out of obcs_calc.F into new S/R OBCS_BALANCE_FLOW :
45       - fix to OBCS_BALANCE code (right hFac ; deal with simple OB intersection).
46       - change default: balance the Net inflow through all OB (instead of balancing
47         each OB separately); keep the old method if setting OBC_balanceFacX < 0.
48     - switch on useOBCSbalance in dome experiment: only correct Western OB outflow
49       to match Nortern OB inflow (OBCS_balanceFacN=0).
50    o pkg/seaice:
51     - redefined actual sea ice age to be ICEAGE/HEFF ifdef SEAICE_AGE_VOL
52    o pkg/seaice (seaice_growth v 1.113):
53     - reverting seaice_growth to v 1.111 in order to have code with exact bit
54       compatibility with MITgcm_contrib/ifenty/Fenty_seaice_thermo_code_merge
55       CPP option SEAICE_OCN_MELT_ACT_ON_AREA removed in v 1.112 is reintroduced
56       runtime flag SEAICEareaFormula is kept but is inactive
57    o model/src:
58     - add new param to scale curvilinear grid distance and area when using
59       a different sphere radius from the grid-files.
60     - test/check multi-threads EXCH applied to local variable (cg2d_x)
61    o adjoint:
62     - enable adjoint of Stevens OB
63     - add dummy_in_dynamics to enable extraction of ADJrhoinsitu
64       (a bit delicate because of potentially modified adj. common block structure;
65       current switch is ALLOW_AUTODIFF_MONITOR_DIAG, could be changed later)
66    
67    checkpoint62s (2011/02/15)
68    o pkg/seaice (seaice_growth v 1.112):
69     - introduce SEAICEareaFormula run time parameter, which selects the recipe for
70       computing the ice cover tendency from effective thickness tendencies. Include
71       Ian Fenty's formula.
72     - remove 'undef SEAICE_OCN_MELT_ACT_ON_AREA' which may now be achieved using
73       SEAICEareaFormula.
74     - simplify notations for the various d_HEFF/d_AREA terms.
75    o pkg/gmredi:
76     - add Boundary-Value-Problem bolus transport (Ferrari etal, OM 2010) code
77       from Christopher Wolfe (UCSD); add partial cell factor in vertical derivative;
78       add a verification test-run (front_relax.bvp) to test GM_useBVP.
79    o pkg/seaice (seaice_growth v 1.111):
80     - for SEAICE_DO_OPEN_WATER_GROWTH, replace Gael's implementation with Ian's.
81     - the new SEAICE_DO_OPEN_WATER_MELT allows open-water air-sea heat fluxes to
82       also melt ice.
83    o pkg/seaice:
84     - McPhee formula for Ice-Ocean fluxes (provided by Ian Fenty).
85     - can be used by #define MCPHEE_OCEAN_ICE_HEAT_FLUX in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h
86    o pkg/cheapaml:
87     - from Nico Wienders: New version of this package.
88    o pkg/flt:
89     - add CPP options to prevent floats to re-enter the opposite side of
90       a periodic domain (default: keep periodicity)
91    o pkg/gmredi:
92     - apply exchange to GM_PsiX,GM_PsiY to get valid values near CS-corners
93       (needed for multi-dim advection).
94     - switch on GM Advective form in global_ocean.cs32x15 and update output.txt
95    o model/src:
96     - fix wrong re-setting of addMass array (ALLOW_ADDFLUID) for atmospheric run.
97    o tutorial_tracer_adjsens
98     - extend to NLFS and replace maskC by hFacC
99       (change reference output accordingly)
100    
101    checkpoint62r (2011/01/24)
102    o testreport:
103     - add option -deloutp (-do) to remove output file after successful run
104     - add option -mfile (-mf) for MPI machile-file and for each test-exp,
105       extract exact list of procs from this file ; adjust COMMAND by
106       replacing TR_MFILE & TR_NPROC with local machile-file & Nb of MPI procs.
107    o pkg/ecco: replace old ineffective way of penalizing deviations from
108      first guess (of obcs) with code by Matt Mazloff
109    o pkg/ctrl: add code that allows the use of ALLOW_OBCS?_CONTROL without
110      exf/cal
111      - ctrl_init: fix initialisation (computation of diffrec) for obcs-ctrl
112        and handle case of obcs?period == 0
113        Not affected by these changes: There is still an inconsistency in
114        the computation of start/endrec for the obcs variables for ALLOW_CAL
115        defined (see comment by Menemenlis, 7-Mar-2003)
116      - make S/R ctrl_get_gen_rec return something meaningful even if
117        ALLOW_CAL is not defined
118      - ctrl_getobcs?: simplify code so that it does not need to use
119                       S/R exf_swapfields
120    o testreport:
121       allow to test MPI with different number of processors for each experiment:
122       create file "SIZE.h.mpi" in each build dir.
123       Note: update of "-command" argument not yet implemented.
124    o model/src, pkg/autodiff, pkg/ecco, pkg/seaice:
125      alleviate the need for additional 3D tapes when using
126      the non-inear free surface in the adjoint. This is done
127      by adding an 'update' of hfacc etc. to their current
128      value at the beginning of forward_step.F.
129    o pkg/seaice
130      seaice_lsr: move stress-divergence computations out of outer pseudo-
131      timestepping loop
132    o pkg/obcs/obcs_prescribe_read.F: move 'CALL OBCS_EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD'
133      up, so that the calls of the ctrl_* subroutines are really at the end
134      of the routine.
135    o pkg/gmredi:
136      allow to specify a 2-D horizontal map and a 1-D vertical profil
137      as scaling factor for Isopycnal diffusivity (Redi) and GM diffusivity.
138    o pkg/seaice:
139      move lsr iterations from seaice_dynsolver to seaice_lsr.
140    o pkg/seaice:
141      reduce memory footprint of seaice mutldim advection tapes,
142      by using a 2D tape independent of the generic_advdiff ones,
143      and setting GAD_AREA=1 etc. rather than GAD_AREA=101 etc.
144    
145    checkpoint62q (2010/12/29)
146    o model/src:
147      - check horizontal grid-spacing for unset or zero/negative values.
148      - change AD test hs94.1x64x5 to be truly a 2-D set-up.
149    o pkg/flt:
150      - use (recent) mdsio S/R MDS_READVEC_LOC instead of local FLT_MDSREADVECTOR
151      - precision of input and output files set according to readBinaryPrec
152        and writeBinaryPrec (previously always 64.b), pickup remains at 64 bits.
153      - initial float position from tiled file was not converted to index space
154        (looks like a bug): fixed to make it similar to initial pos. global file.
155    o global_ocean.cs32x15:
156       change SIZE.h of AD set-up to get same tiling as with MPI.
157       Update output_adm, output_adm.thsice (pass@14) & output_adm.seaice (fail@11)
158    o model/src:
159       add flag to control printing of domain fields (bathymetry, hFac ...) in
160       ini_mask_etc (call to plot_fieds_xy*).
161    o pkg/thsice:
162       if useEXF, some forcing fields are not valid in overlap: fixed by computing
163       over the interior only + apply EXCH at the end (like with SEAICE advection).
164    o pkg/mdsio:
165      - add 2 arguments to S/R MDS_PASS_R4/8toRL/S for overlap size of buffer
166        to copy to/from, so that it can be used to replace MDS_PASS_WH_R8toRL/RS.
167      - change barrier call for safe multi-threads access to 3-D shared buffer.
168      - MDS_READ/WRITEVEC_LOC use buffers from MDSIO_BUFF_3D.h (instead of local ones)
169      - replace call to MDS_PASS_WH_R4/8toRL with call to MDS_PASS_R4/8toRL and
170        remove the 4 S/R MDS_PASS_WH_R4/8toRL/S.
171    o pkg/flt:
172      - add fourth-order Runge-Kutta integration
173      - add basic exch2 support (only 1 facet supported so far!)
174    o pkg/mdsio+rw:
175      new S/R to read local (or tile independent) vector (read counterpart of
176       mds_writevec_loc, and front-end write_glvec_rl/rs).
177    o global_ocean.cs32x15: additional input_ad.seaice experiment
178        that uses pkg/seaice rather than pkg/thsice.
179        (using multidim advection for seaice)
180    o towards more F95 syntax for array specification in namelist:
181      - change "data.diagnostics" (data.ptracers was changed before checkpoint62p)
182        of all verification experiments.
183           e.g.:    line: fields(1,3)='ETAN    ','ETANSQ  ',
184          was changed to: fields(1:2,3)='ETAN    ','ETANSQ  ',
185      - finish adding "-DNML_EXTENDED_F77" to DEFINES list in pgf77 and g77 optfiles
186    o global_ocean.cs32x15: additional input.seaice experiment
187        that uses pkg/seaice rather than pkg/thsice.
188    
189    checkpoint62p (2010/12/17)
190    o pkg/thsice: rename (ad tape index) iicekey as ticekey, and move it
191        to THSICE_SIZE.h to avoid conflict with pkg/seaice.
192    o pkg/seaice: add seaice_diffusion.f seaice_map_thsice.f to adjoint.
193        allow for use of multim. advection in seaice adjoint.
194    o pkg/seaice: add diagnostics for snow precipitation and sublimation flux
195      - first attempt to close budgets by taking into account the freshwater
196        flux implied by the sublimation of snow and ice. So far only the
197        volume budget is closed, turn on with soon-to-be-retired-again CPP-Flag
198        SEAICE_ADD_SUBLIMATION_TO_FWBUDGET
199    o eesupp/src:
200      new S/R with new option (NML_EXTENDED_F77) to change array specification
201      from F95 standard to commonly accepted extended F77 form.
202      This would allow to use F95 syntax in namelist (needed with gfortran 4.4.5)
203      and to revert back to the original syntax (with -DNML_EXTENDED_F77)
204      for less tolerant f77 compiler (e.g., pgf77, g77).
205    o globalFiles:
206      commented out in parameter file "data" since it's not safe with MPI
207      (e.g., wrong on aces); keep it if useSingleCpuIO=T (but not doing much
208      in this case); no longer commented out in restart test (tst_2+2).
209    o add adTapeDir to specify a special directory where adjoint tapes are
210      written/read (adread_adwrite.F). adTapeDir is specified in data/PARM05
211      and cannot be used together with mdsioLocalDir.
212    o nesting pkgs:
213      - packages_init_variables : put call to OBCS_INIT_VARIABLES in last position
214      - update Gianmaria's Nesting pkgs (from Contrib/nesting_sannino)
215      - add parameter files + utils dir + output from short run on beagle.
216    o pkg/seaice:
217        fix seaice_growth.F store directives; update results of exp. lab_sea.ad
218    o pkg/seaice: explicitly store tsurfloc in seaice_solve4temp.F to avoid
219      unnecessary copying in adjoint code, requires new parameter NMAX_ITER
220    
221    checkpoint62o (2010/11/25)
222    o pkg/exf:
223      - change CPP option EXF_VERBOSE to run-time logical param exf_verbose.
224    o pkg/seaice:
225      - seaice_ocean_stress: split a loop for better vectorization of the
226        adjoint code
227      - seaice_growth.F: fix bug in conservation of freshwater connected to
228        capping of heff, put contribution into d_HEFFbyNEG
229      - replace irritating parameters SEAICE_latentWater/Ice and SEAICE_sensHeat
230        by something more sensible (parameters that are what their name implies)
231      - change some defaults, so that by default exf-parameters are used for
232        things like rhoAir, cpAir,latent/sensible heat parameters, in order
233        to reproduce the old results, many data.seaice now contain funny values
234        for cpAir and latent heat of sublimation
235    o packages_readparms.F: move exf_readparms up in line so that
236        exf-parameters are visible for other packages (e.g. seaice)
237    o debugMode & debugLevel=2:
238      - differentiate between debugMode & debugLevel=2:
239        debugMode: controls printing of debug messages (sequence of S/R calls).
240        debugLevel: controls printing of algorithm intermediate results and stats.
241      - remove "if debugLevel=2 => debugMode" but keep "debugMode =>  debugLevel=2";
242        => allows to print debug-stats without all sequence of call messages.
243      - switch control of debug print from debugLevel to debugMode in many S/R.
244    o pkg/obcs (obcs-sponge):
245        fix bug that was introduced on Oct 25 (in dynamics.F v1.151): put back the
246        call to OBCS_PRESCRIBE_EXCHANGES (need to exch gU,gV when using obcs-sponge)
247    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
248      - record overlap minimum size for each advection scheme;
249      - refine criteria on overlap minimum size;
250      - check and stop (in gad_check) if overlap size is too small.
251    o pkg/obcs:
252      - with ptracers: remove multiple calls to obcs_apply_ptracer (only done
253        once, in ptracers_implicit.F)
254      - with seaice: remove test on empty file name in obcs_apply_seaice (always
255        apply OB values when tile has OB)
256    o model/src, coriolis setting:
257      - integer parameter "selectCoriMap" (=0,1,2) replaces 3 logical
258        useConstantF, useBetaPlaneF, useSphereF ; can now read coriolis from
259        files (selectCoriMap=3) with any grid.
260      - add parameter "fPrime" for constant second Coriolis coeff (default=0).
261    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F:
262        a few cosmetic changes that reduce the number of lines of code
263    o pkg/obcs: add boundary conditions following Stevens (1990)
264      - the code follows old MOM/NAOSIM code
265      - so far it is only implemented for the eastern and western boundaries
266        and NOT for pTracers
267    o pkg/rbcs:
268      - replace rbcsInIter by rbcsForcingOffset, the time in seconds at the
269        beginning of the first rbcs forcing period.
270      - add option rbcsSingleTimeFiles that makes rbcs read forcing data like the
271        offline package, i.e., one file per time, labeled by iteration number;
272        deltaTrbcs sets the timestep with which the data was generated;
273        rbcsIter0 is the forcing iteration corresponding to rbcsForcingOffset.
274      - rbcsForcingCycle=0 makes forcing non-cyclic.
275      - make arithmetic safe for negative times and odd forcing periods.
276    
277    checkpoint62n (2010/11/09)
278    o pkg/seaice:
279        fix masking in free-drift S/R ; update results of exp. lab_sea.fd
280    o pkg/obcs:
281       New S/R to copy tracer value from the OB location to narrow band region
282        (width = same as overlap) beyond the OB: preserve OB value (needed for
283        high-order scheme) which were overwritten by EXCH call if in overlap
284        region. Applied to theta, salt, ptracer and advected seaice variables.
285       With seaice: use maskInC in similar way as in gad_advection.F,
286        in seaice_advection.F and advect.F.
287       Update output of experiment seaice_obcs and change exp4 to test OBCS with
288        4th order Adv.Scheme. for pasive salt and ptracer.
289    o tools/genmake2:
290      - when looking for an optfile (not specified), only search for Fortran compiler
291        (remove sym-link test + setting of CPP + makedepend check + C-compiler check)
292      - in get_fortran_c_namemangling: use "$CC $CFLAG" to compile C test programm
293        (instead of "$MAKE genmake_test.o" since an existing Makefile can be wrong)
294      - set default for CPP to "cpp -traditional -P" (was the case without specifying
295        an optfile, but otherwise default was just "cpp".
296      - comment out PLATFORM=$p_PLATFORM (no idea where p_PLATFORM comes from)
297      - when "CC" is not set in the optfile, look for possible C compiler
298        (instead of just setting CC=cc)
299      - put back version v.169 modif (from 2008/02/15), was dropped in v.173 changes:
300        => add a ".F" to ".o" rule for source files with no "#include" (such as
301           port_rand.F); otherwise, default ignores FOPTIM and just uses FFLAGS.
302      - move gfortran before g77 in list of possible Fortran compiler (consistent
303        with reference compiler switch from g77 to gfortran)
304    o pkg/seaice:
305      o remove SEAICE_OLD_AND_BAD_DISCRETIZATION-code, add a test to
306        seaice_check that stops the model, when the CPP flag is used.
307      o seaice_growth.F: make capping of ice volume conserving by returning the
308        capped ice as freshwater to EmPmR. This does not change the verification
309        experiments but will change runs where the capping is acutally active
310    o change reference platform+compiler from faulks+g77 to baudelaire+gfortran
311      (except the 2 fizhi test exp.); update output of exp.: bottom_ctrl_5x5,
312         global_ocean.cs32x15 (icedyn, thsice, AD thsice), global_ocean_ebm (AD),
313         lab_sea (fd, hb87, salt_plume), MLAdjust (3/5) and vermix (dd)
314    o tools/genmake2:
315      - merge genmake_warnings & genmake_errors into 1 log file: "genmake.log")
316      - change DUMPSTATE default to false (can use "-ds" option to switch it to T)
317      - clean previous genmake log files before anything else.
318      - change Makefile to remove testreport log files (*.tr_log) and genmake log
319        files only with "CLEAN" target (instead of "Clean");
320    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
321      Change OBCS in multiDim advection (gad_advection.F):
322       Use maskInC to prevent intermediate update of tracer-field in OB regions,
323       thus keeping current-time-step OB values; and remove the call to OBCS_APPLY
324       which were applying future time-step OB values.
325      This way, all explicit calculations use current-time-step OB values
326       (simpler and more consistent).
327      Affects results when set-up uses time-varying OBC and multi-dim advection;
328       update output of experiment seaice_obcs.
329    o pkg/seaice:
330      move OPTIONS (formerly locally defined) to SEAICE_OPTIONS.h:
331       this includes SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY (+ SEAICE_DO_OPEN_WATER_GROWTH &
332         SEAICE_OCN_MELT_ACT_ON_AREA ) and SEAICE_SOLVE4TEMP_LEGACY.
333      Default (pkg/seaice/SEAICE_OPTIONS.h) is to define SEAICE_SOLVE4TEMP_LEGACY
334       but leave SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY undef ; For now, keep verification exp
335       unchanged (SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY defined in */code*/SEAICE_OPTIONS.h)
336    o pkg aim (2010/10/26):
337      - Introduce ALLOW_INSOLATION, moving toward a more general incoming solar radiation
338        formulation with obliquity, eccentricity, ... as run-time parameters,
339      - Introduce diagnostics for top-of-the-atmaophere incoming solar radiation and
340        upward shortwave radition at the surface (all-sky and clear-sky).
341    o pkg/obcs:
342      - writing sections with globalFiles=T does not work: switch to tiled-files
343        when writing sections for OBCS (change pkg/rw/write_rec.F accordingly).
344      - fix index bug (OB_Ie -> OB_Iw_) in obcs_apply_uvice.F
345      - apply OBCS_SEAICE_COMPUTE_UVICE to both uice and vice at all obcs
346    
347    checkpoint62m (2010/10/21)
348    o pkg/seaice: vectorize seaice_solve4temp.F
349      - move iterations loops outside of i/j-loops
350      - requires 2D arrays for TB and effConduct
351      - add 2D iceOrNot to replace HICE_ACTUAL.GT.0, as HICE_ACTUAL is
352        modified in this routine
353      - a little bit of clean up, adjusting indentation, etc.
354      - replaced a few TEN**a by exp(a*log(10.)) in new code for better
355        performance and '**TWO' by '**2' (because TWO is a float),
356        replaced ONE, ZERO
357    o eesupp/src:
358       fix flow dir for exch1_z_RX_cube, exch1_uv_RX_cube & exch1_bg_RX_cube
359    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F
360      Revision 1.89 of seaice_growth.F completes the overall october 2010 revision and
361      merging process. The merged routine has two branches, and one activates the 'evolution'
362      branch by setting SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY to undef (at the top of the routine for now).
363      In summary, here is what the '10/10 revision' did consist of
364        part 1: seaice_growth.F revisions 1.71 to 1.75
365          - Preliminary seaice_growth.F clean-up, keeping test results strictly unchanged.
366            The emphasis here was on improving readability (e.g. by trying to use meaningful
367            variable names) and modularity (e.g. by adding arrays to store heff etc. updates).
368        part 1.5:
369          - revising the lab_sea experiment to make it a more useful (i.e. stable
370            and representative of an actual model run). This was done by generating a
371            (winter) pickup to start from, switching back the main experiment dynamic
372            solver from evp to lsr, having one of the experiments use the free drift solution.
373        part 2: seaice_growth.F revisions 1.76 to 1.85
374          - Sorting out hard-coded constants that prevented heat and fresh water conservation.
375          - Sorting out the various fields units and sign (set early on and reset at the end)
376            to avoid numerous scalings/re-scalings. By v1.85 the basic unit for ice, heat and
377            fresh water stock is 'effective ice meters', and >0 implies more ice/snow.
378          - Using tendency terms arrays (d_HEFF* etc.) to alleviate remaining code locks,
379            and simplifying logical expressions to further improve readibility.
380        part 3: seaice_growth.F revisions 1.86 to 1.89
381          - Re-organize the blocks of code more logically.
382          - Merging the '_if.F' pieces that add something new.
383    o pkg/thsice:
384      - vectorize thsice_solve4temp and thsice_get_exf.
385        Problem: thsice_solve4temp has an unvectorizable statement that
386        might also be problematic for TAF
387      - thsice_get_exf: add the ALLOW_BULK_LARGEYEAGER04 CPP-flag. This
388        does not change the verifcation experiment, but will change all
389        experiments that have this flag undefined (not tested in verification);
390        a little reorganization to save a few 2D fields and recomputations
391      - 1st step of revisiting thsice adjoint (major recomp. sorted out)
392      - 2nd step:  fix some store dirs
393        o seems to work somewhat, i.e. using ifort but not g77
394        o likely cause are incomplete init. or recomputation
395        o start verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input_ad.thsice
396    o pkg/obcs: add support for exch2
397      - the position of the boundary and prescribed values are specified using
398        a global domain with exch2 facets stacked
399        - in x for N,S boundaries (like W2_mapIO=-1)
400        - in y for E,W boundaries (so E,W boundaries do not overlap)
401    o pkg/mdsio: add support for writing global sections with exch2
402        file layout is as for obcs described above:
403        - for x-z sections, facets are stacked in x (like W2_mapIO=-1)
404        - for y-z sections, facets are stacked in y
405    o pkg/thsice:
406       - change a few routines for better vectorization: thsice_albedo.F,
407         thsice_step_temp.F, and in thsice_calc_thickn.F. Results are
408         not affected, but in particular the latter routine has changed
409         dramatically (not necessarily easier to read now).
410       - re-arrange calculation in THSICE_SOLVE4TEMP: move outside of i,j loops
411       iteration loop and call to S/R THSICE_GET_BULKF & THSICE_GET_EXF.
412    o verification/lab_sea:
413      - overhaul of the forward model experiments. The main motivation
414        for this revision is that lab_sea has proven quite fragile (when
415        changing the sea-ice code, and switching platforms) to a point
416        when failures were very hard to attribute to specific code problems.
417      - the suspected reason for this fragility is noise amplification by evp so,
418        to start with, we decided to replace evp with lsr in the main experiment.
419      - the input.lsr experiment thus became obsolete and was removed.
420      - it was replaced with the input.fd experiment that uses an
421        analytical "free drift" solution as the ice velocity field.
422      - Taken together, input (lsr), input.fd (free drift) and input.hb87 (evp)
423        will hopefully allow us to discriminate problems due to dynamic solvers
424        from problems due to the thermodynamic code. input.salt_plume (lsr) allows
425        us to test additional options, along with the salt plume package.
426      - Finally a pickup was generated (at the end of a one year run) to
427        make the tests more representative of an actual model run. Previously
428        the tests starting point was a 1m thickness of ice everywhere.
429    o pkg/seaice:
430      - introducing S\R seaice_freedrift.F that compute the
431        analytical solution to an approximate ice momentum
432        equation (i.e. the simple stress/coriolis balance).
433      - define SEAICE_ALLOW_FREEDRIFT to trigger the computation
434        of the free drift velocity field, and enable its use.
435        To actually use the free drift solution as the model ice
436        velocity field set SEAICEuseFREEDRIFT to .TRUE. in data.seaice.
437    o move "useOASIS" from PARAMS.h to EEPARAMS.h and read it from "eedata"
438    
439    checkpoint62l (2010/10/04)
440    o pkg/seaice:
441      -fix the USE_ORIGINAL_SBI version (for variable freezing point);
442      -use "celsius2K" in SEAICE_VARIABLE_FREEZING_POINT and in new
443       version (with USE_ORIGINAL_SBI undef);
444    o add hooks for new packages OASIS, the package will follow
445      (hooks exclude the seaice pkg for now)
446    o pkg/autodiff: ALLOW_AUTODIFF_WHTAPEIO
447      Option to use mdsio_read_whalos.F/mdsio_write_whalos.F,
448      rather than mdsio_readvector.F/mdsio_writevector.F, within
449      adread_adwrite.F to read/write adjoint-related tapes to disk.
450    o eesupp and pkg/mdsio: ALLOW_WHIO
451      Option to write/read 2D fields to files including tiles halos.
452      The main purpose is for adjoint related "tape I/O".
453      The secondary purpose is for debugging phases.
454      A word on those rather specifically intended purposes.
455      The code was meant to be stripped down to the bare minimum.
456      Typically, there is a unique and basic mapping to the global
457      buffer (tile by tile, then proc by proc, then level by level), and
458      byteswaps and meta-files are omitted. Indeed the (*_WH*) code is not
459      meant to generate user friendly outputs of various shapes and forms.
460      Rather it is intended, for the knowledgeabale developers,
461      to be largely independent of the many mdsio options, to allow
462      outputs of tiles+halos in debugging phases and in adjoint runs,
463      and to allow some flexibility in tuning (adoint) I/O depending on each
464      file system behavior. With regard to tuning, most of the potential knobs
465      (to leave files open, to allocate the I/O indep. of usesinglecpuio,
466      to specify directories, to specify the typical size of I/O calls, etc.)
467      are not yet included, and will be added if they prove useful.
468    o pkg/seaice:
469       fix uninitialised arrays in USE_ORIGINAL_SBI version of seaice_solve4temp.F
470    o pkg/seaice:
471       new S/R seaice_solve4temp.F: this is the merged version of Ian Fenty
472       code (seaice_budget_ice_if.F) which enable to recover old standard
473       code (seaice_budget_ice.F) when option USE_ORIGINAL_SBI is defined.
474       temporary: add "#define USE_ORIGINAL_SBI" at the top of seaice_solve4temp.F.
475    o model/src (rStar):
476       use simple average (not area weighted) of rStarFac at U,V point when using
477       vectorInvariant and selectKEscheme=1,3 (consistent with mom. vertical advection)
478       update output of exp. fizhi-cs-32x32x40 and fizhi-cs-aqualev20.
479    
480    checkpoint62k (2010/09/17)
481    o adjoint
482       * changed verification/global_ocean.cs32x15 ; adjoint now tests
483         Adams-Bashforth 3 + NLFS + RSTAR
484       * some more modifs required for ECCO-GODAE v4
485    o pkg/seaice
486       add SEAICE_AGE_VOL option to use volume instead of area for
487       integrating SEAICE_AGE
488    o model/src:
489       first check-in of sigma & hybrid-sigma coordinate code ; also includes
490       non-linear free-surface parts ; but pressure-gradient not yet coded.
491    o pkg/ptracers:
492       option for ptracer to convert Salt Relax into additional EmP.
493        tested in exp. global_ocean.90x40x15.dwnslp (update output)
494    
495    checkpoint62j (2010/08/25)
496    o pkg/ggl90:
497       other minor changes: remove 3-D temp array gTKE (+ add argument myIter)
498    o pkg/dic: car_flux.F, phos_flux.F
499      - reduce number of exp-calls in order to improve performance
500      - clean up a little (replace fields by their macros, etc., fix
501        typo in CPP-flag)
502    o pkg/ggl90: minor changes
503      - GGL90diffKrS was removed --> always use GGL90diffKr
504      - GGL90viscAr was removed --> replaced with GGL90viscArU, GGL90viscArV
505      - hack of mxlMaxFlag=2 --> ensure mixing between first and second level
506        (commented out for now)
507      - change in max/min operations to ensure that smoothing is ok
508      - smoothing of GGL90viscAr was moved to ggl90_calc.F (as done for GGL90diffKr)
509      - always use diffKrNrT as background profile (i.e. never use diffKr field)
510    o pkg/cfc: bug fix, AREA(i,j,1,bi,bj) -> AREA(i,j,bi,bj)
