5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    checkpoint57i_post
8    o Diagnostics package was changed: diagnostic allocation is now deactivated
9      by setting an empty file name in the namelist (used to be by setting 0 frequency)
10    o momentum advection (VI form) options: activate 4th.O vorticity Coriolis ;
11      add 1rst Order upwind vertical Shear.
12    o add a quick fix for A/B checkpointing in OFFLINE mode
13    o add IGNORE_TIME define and -ignore_time option to genmake2 as an
14      end-run around the C/Fortran linking horror in eesup/src/timers.F
15    o added pkg/runclock: allows user to terminate run based on wall clock
16    o added non-hydrostatic scaling parameter: nh_am2
17    o pkg/my82: futile attempt to make results compiler-independent by adding
18      some "_d 0", etc. no effect.
19    o for mnc output, fill the 'T' coordinate var with myTime and create a
20      separate 'iter' variable for iteration count
21    o pkg/diagnostics:
22      add new capability: output of Global/Regional & per-level statistics ;
23      tested against monitor output (including land & thSIce) on various exp.
24    o make seaice-pkg I/O type flags (MNC/MDS) more standard.
25    
26    checkpoint57h_done
27      tag after changing user customized files (DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h,
28      data.diagnostics, data.gchem, data.ptracers) is done.
29    
30    o pkg/diagnostics: prepare for Global/Regional statistics.
31      add 2nd namelist in data.diagnostics and update DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h
32    o remove "baseTime" (no used) from arg. list of DIFF_BASE_MULTIPLE
33      and rename it: DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE
34    
35    checkpoint57h_post
36    o move tIter0 from data.gchem to PTRACERS_Iter0 in data.ptracers
37    o pkg/diagnostics: change output frequency, now in seconds (instead
38      of Nb of iterations). This requires to change data.diagnostics.
39    checkpoint57h_pre
40    
41    o in mnc, let the user create the output dir if both mnc_outdir_date
42      and mnc_outdir_num are false
43    o add fflags() to pkg/diagnostics which allows one to specify, on a
44      per-file basis, the file precision [default behavior is unchanged]
45    o added diagnostics to pkg/kpp, including computation of mixed layer
46      depth based on a temperature/density criterion
47    o updated verification/natl_box to test the new pkg/kpp diagnostics
48    o bugs fixed (with useAbsVorticity=T & with useJamartMomAdv=T)
49    o test AB-3 code with 4th.Order advection scheme (advect_xy/input.ab3_c4)
50    o fix mnc flags in pkg/seaice so that they are "owned" by seaice,
51      not mnc -- this mistake was found by JMC and is now corrected
52    
53    checkpoint57g_post
54    o add Adams-Bashforth 3rd Order time stepping:
55      - default remains AB-2 (#undef ALLOW_ADAMSBASHFORTH_3)
56      - not yet implemented with NH, CD_Scheme, pTracers, MNC_pickup ...
57    checkpoint57g_pre
58    
59    o make lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax spatially varying
60      (default remains spatially uniform constant based on tau)
61    o added new control variables
62      * init. uVel, vVel, etanN
63      * lambda[Theta,Salt]ClimRelax
64    o separate masks used for ctrl_pack/unpack 'from write_grid' output
65      (suggested by G. Forget)
66    
67    checkpoint57f_post
68    o add parameter "baseTime" = model base time = time at iteration zero
69      new function DIFF_BASE_MULTIPLE (replace DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE) to
70      account for baseTime shift
71    o move Coriolis arrays from PARAMS.h to GRID.h
72    checkpoint57f_pre
73    
74    o mnc-ifying the seaice package
75    o introduced an alternative length scale calculation for use in the limiting
76      maximum viscosity (off by default, see mom_vi_hdissip.F for details)
77    o S/R ptracers_calc_diff: argument list bug for CALL KPP_CALC_DIFF_S
78    o added modified Leith scheme with viscosity proportional to grad(Hdiv)
79      as well as grad(vort3).  Made it compatible with both approximate form
80      for the cubed sphere and full form of these gradients.  Added flag
81      useFullLeith to select between approximate and full form.  
82    o add "d0" in getcon.F to reduce differences between compilers/platforms
83      update output.txt of exp. fizhi-gridalt-hs
84    o change port_rand funtion to allow to set the seed.
85    o fix obscure MNC bug involving conversion between reals and integers
86      - it caused no problems with certain (eg. gcc, ifc) compilers but the
87        new version is now more standards-compliant
88    o adjoint-related modifications
89      * gad_dst3_adv_?: to be able to use advscheme=30 in adjoint
90      * gad_calc_rhs: fool adjoint, revert to advscheme=30 in reverse when using 33
91      * mom_vi_hdissip: to be able to use Leith scheme in adjoint
92    
93    checkpoint57e_post
94    o Adding eddy stress controls a la Ferreira et al.
95    checkpoint57e_pre (actually was tagged: eckpoint57e_pre)
96    
97    o fizhi pkg: fix AtoC and CtoA when called with same input & output array
98      update output.txt of exp. fizhi-gridalt-hs
99    o add more "Z" dimensions and associated coordinate vars to MNC
100    o pkg/exf: added twoDigitYear capability for option useExfYearlyFields
101    o parameter calendarDumps: when set, approximate months (30-31 days) and years
102      (360-372 days) for parameters chkPtFreq, pChkPtFreq, taveFreq, SEAICE_taveFreq,
103      KPP_taveFreq, and freq in pkg/diagnostics are converted to exact calendar
104      months and years.  Requires pkg/cal.
105    o diagnostics: add pickup functionality
106      - off by default for backwards compatibility
107      - current version only uses MDSIO -- MNC will be added
108    o allow to use pkg diagnostics for LAND pkg output & Shapiro Tendencies.
109    o pkg/shap_filt: fix for multi-tiles per face (CS-grid with EXCH2)
110    
111    checkpoint57d_post
112    o pkg/thsice used in the ocean: fix tile Pb related to sIceLoad forcing
113    o modify verification/ideal_2D_oce so that it tests the creation of mnc
114      output from the diagnostics package
115    o temporary fix in EXCH2_UV: add a 3rd call to fix the 24.tiles CS-grid set-up
116    o make genmake2 more portable by using ".$FS" instead of ".f" for more
117      of the test compilations (eg. IBM xlf on Mac OSX w/HFS filesys)
118    o add coordinate variables to the MNC output from the diagnostics package
119    o change MNC-flags default value: true when useMNC=TRUE
120    o add a "readgrid_mnc" flag to MNC and give model/src/ini_curvilinear_grid.F
121      the ability (off by default) to read the grid information using MNC
122    o lab_sea: use LSR_ERROR=1.E-12 for testing ; update output.txt
123    o diagnostics: fix a bug (sub-set of levels); keep full precision when averaging
124    o do snap-shot diagnostics at the middle of the time-interval (instead of
125      at the end).
126    o update exp. aim.5l_cs (use default LAND_OPTIONS.h file) and add
127      new test for AIM with thSIce + slab-ocean
128    o cpl_aim+ocn test: update output (optfile & default GMREDI_OPTIONS.h)
129    o move state variable diagnostics to the beginning of the time step ;
130      (note: still needs some work specially for snap-shot diagnostics)
131      duplicate & replace UVELVVEL diagnostics with UV_VEL_C & UV_VEL_Z
132    
133    checkpoint57c_post
134    o Change testing option (-ieee) to get closer agreement between g77 & ifort
135    o generate new output.txt files on faulks with g77 & the new -ieee option
136    checkpoint57c_pre
137    
138    o add "_d 0" in freeze ; change some "FLOAT" to "DFLOAT" and went back (TAF);
139      update output.txt of exp. global_ocean.90x40x15
140    o fix in ini_eos.F (one "_d 0" was missing): now g77 & ifc give much closer
141      results; update global_ocean_pressure & global_ocean.cs32x15 output.txt
142    o add saltFlux(+File) forcing capability with periodicExternalForcing
143    o allow to use pkg diagnostics for GM-Redi & ThSIce output
144    o diagnostics_fill: fill in up to sNx+1 or sNy+1 (if U,V or Z pt) for mnc.
145    o improvements for the MNC output from DIAGNOSTICS:
146      - correct handling of the unlimitied dimension
147      - all dims now have associated coordinate variables
148      - variables located at U, V, and Corner ("Z") points are now written
149        with the correct horzontal dimensions (eg. 'Xp1', 'Yp1') so that
150        *all* data points are output
151    o added seaice_summary.F and removed obsolete ALLOW_SEAICE's from pkg/seaice
152    o added pkg/seaice/seaice_monitor.F
153    o mdsio_readfield.F can now read files visible only to master MPI process.
154    o pkg/seaice: some test code for ice-modified ocean stress
155    o exf_getffields interpolation defaults to bilinear for all scalar forcing
156      fields (remains bicubic for wind velocity and stress).  This avoids, e.g.,
157      spurious negative numbers for precipitation and humidity.  Will cause
158      some small numerical differences for integrations using pkg/exf/exf_interp.F.
159    o pkg/ctrl/
160      * Add ctrlvec diagnostics in pack/unpack for nondimensional I/O
161        May be enabled via doPackDiag
162      *  introduce z-scaling of
163         + gradient (doZscalePack) and
164         + control (doZscaleUnpack)
165    o pkg/mdsio/
166      * enable useSingleCpuIO for state estimation (ctrl_pack/unpack) mdsio_gl.F
167      * N.B.: leave tiled I/O for tapelev (i.e. mds...vector)
168    
169    checkpoint57b_post
170    o simplify options in diagnostics_fill arguments (remove weird combinations)
171    o fix MNC coordinate variables so that they now contain per-face index
172      values (instead of xC,xG,yC,yG values) when run with EXCH2 since, in
173      general, EXCH2 grids are only aligned to a "local" coordinate system
174    o test diagnostics pkg in dic_example (no output) and ideal_2D_oce (with ouput)
175    o Implement instantaneous output within pkg diagnostics:
176      setting a negative frequency in data.diagnostics produces
177     "snap-shot" output (as opposed to time-average if freq > 0)
178    o move out off EQUIVALENCE all diagnostics that fizhi does not use ;
179      NOTE: change ptracer diagnostics name: use 2 characters to work with
180            more than 9 tracers. Add also diagnostics of advect & diffus flux.
181    o more CF compliance: convert all MNC 'iter' variables to 'T' so that it
182      becomes the coordinate variable for the 'T' dimension
183    o add CF-style coordinate variables to MNC
184      - just a first cut:  numbers are meaningless on the cubesphere and
185        missing along the T axis but otherwise it works!
186    o add surface flux diagnostics: TAUX, TAUY, TFLUX, TRELAX, TICE, SFLUX, SRELAX
187    o pkg/thSIce: read initial state from 6 files ; allow monitor to use MNC.
188    o add diagnostics of advective & diffusive flux for T & S (pTracers coming soon)
189      this is based directly on what the model compute, so that the content of
190      each diagnostics might be affected by switching options (e.g., implicitDiffusion)
191    o small changes for diagnostics (gad_biharm_?.F, arguments of S/R impldiff.F)
192    o clean up build options files for SunOS, in particular
193      - remove -traditional from xmakedepend
194      - change -xarch=v9 to -xarch=native for f77
195      - restore use of make (not gmake)
196      - add CC=gcc if using g77
197    o changes per discussion of AM, JMC, & EH3 today:
198      - move redundant "grid" variables out of "state" -- in preparation of
199        creating proper CF-style coordinate variables and in recognition
200        that any/all grid variables can be easily copied (eg. w/NCO) from
201        the grid files into any of the other NetCDF files
202      - *always* output grid variables with MDSIO (this will eventually be
203        changed)
204      - output MNC grid file if useMNC is true
205    o every instance of _END_MASTER() has been found and replaced with
206      _END_MASTER( myThid ) in order to satisfy certain picky Sun
207      preprocessors
208    o re-arrange diagnostics pkg initialisation:
209     - allow each package to extend the available diagnostics list
210     - add some checking and fix small problems (multi-threaded, ...)
211     - new S/R diagnostics_fill (replace fill_diagnostics):
212       look through the short list of active diag. (instead of the long list)
213       create function DIAGNOSTICS_IS_ON to tell if a diagnostics is active
214    
215    checkpoint57a_post
216    o this set of changes restores TAMC compatibility
217      tested for global_ocean.90x40x15 adjoint on trough
218      (what a pain)
219    
220    checkpoint57a_pre
221    o some modifs in tools/build_options for sunos
222    o call ctrl_pack for ctrl at end for optimcycle=0
223    
224    checkpoint57
225    o add horizontal bi-harmonic viscosity for vertical velocity
226      - new parameter viscA4W (defaults to viscA4)
227      - affects only non-hydrostatic code
228      - to be done: no-slip lateral boundary conditions
229    o switch back to "sflux = sflux - runoff" in exf_getforcing.F
230    o implement Implicit Vertical advection for pTracers
231    o depth convergence accelerator: replace deltaTtracer by dTtracerLev(k)
232      (implemented also for implicit vertical diffusion & advection)
233    o OBCS: extend application of tracer open boundary conditions
234      to a strip beyond the boundary of width Olx/Oly
235    o add call monitor to TAF set of required calls (flow directives)
236      and include in natl_box_adjoint
237    o untangle a few ifdefs related to cost, ctrl, autodiff
238      untangel a few ALLOW_ECCO_OPTIMIZATION
239    o Apply Cooper & Haines representative estimates also at sub-surface (k=Nr)
240      (theta2, salt2 in ecco_cost_weights)
241    
242    checkpoint56c_post
243    o OBCS as control variables
244      - update ctrl_ad_diff.list, obcs_ad_diff.list
245      - remove balance of obcs controls from default
246      - fix index bug nobcs in ctrl_init
247      - fix dummy fields filen in ctrl_pack
248      - add dummy weights for obcs
249    o lsopt: comment out fort.94 output
250    o optim:
251      - remove unnecessary header files
252      - adjusted namelists
253      - add xerbla.F to Makefile
254    o exf:
255      - multiple modifications of exf_check_range
256      - unit change in exf_init_runoff from [m/year] to [m/s]
257    o mdsio:
258      - i/o-vector change debugLevel from debLevA to debLevB
259    
260    checkpoint56b_post
261    o collect all ptracers output in an new routine (PTRACERS_OUTPUT) that
262      is called from DO_THE_MODEL_IO
263      - rename PTRACERS_STATV_WRITE to PTRACERS_WRITE_TIMEAVE
264      - introduce new parameter PTRACERS_dumpFreq (defaults to dumpFreq)
265      - clean up PTRACERS_WRITE_TIMEAVE a little
266    o add another verification experiment that tests both the cfc-pkg and
267      the gchem-pkg with GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING undefined, that is with
268      reactive tendencies treated inline with regular timestepping
269    o testreport previously did a lousy job of comparing small numbers, so
270      we (Ed and Martin) changed the  way the cut-off of 1.e-12 is
271      implemented in the little c-progam tmp_cmpnum.c which is embedded in
272      testreport.
273    o ptracers_monitor: bug fix for MPI
274    
275    checkpoint56a_post
276    o GCHEM: finish reorganizating the package
277      - forward_step calls GCHEM_CALC_TENDENDY, which computes gchemTendency
278        (introduces another 3D-array for each passive tracer, but only if
279        GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING is undefined. For GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING
280        gchemTendency is not needed because the timestep is done separately)
281      - gchemTendency is added to gPtr in GCHEM_ADD_TENDENCY
282      - GCHEM is now---more or less cleanly---separate from PTRACERS
283      - to bo done: handling of surfaceForcingPtr that is needed for KPP not
284        so clear to me how that should be done in a general way.
285    o CFC: improve formatting of output in CFC_ATMOS
286    o PTRACERS:
287      - rename GCHEM_MONITOR to PTRACERS_MONITOR and call it from MONITOR, so
288        that ALL experiments with ptracers enable can be checked. This makes
289        GCHEM_MONITOR obsolete.
290      - include a runtime parameter PTRACERS_monitorFreq that defaults to
291        monitorFreq
292      - set default PTRACERS_write_mdsio to false if PTRACERS_write_mnc is true
293    o add PTRACERS (PTR0[1-5]) to testreport output
294    o exf_check_range:
295      * default changed to .TRUE.
296      * will check values for niter0 if debLevA, every timestep if debLevB
297      * STOP in exf_check_range if 'out of range'
298      * range chosen generous to allow for potential extema
299      TBD: a version with stricter range
300           permitted range would be runtime parameters
301    o GMredi:
302      - fix ldd97 slope limit ; extend valid domain of Psi-Bolus ;
303      - change S/R GRAD_SIGMA to be valid in the overlap on CS-grid.
304      - change the default GMREDI_OPTIONS.h: compile everything except Visbeck
305    o GCHEM:
306      - move call to GCHEM_FORCING_SEP, so that it is now called before
307        the blocking exchanges to avoid computing halos in GCHEM_FORCING_SEP
308      - introduced a useGCHEM runtime flag and applied it everywhere.
309      - renamed PTRACERS_SEPARATE_FORCING to GCHEM_SEPARATE_FORCING;
310        this flag is now only visible within GCHEM-pkg routines.
311      - moved gchem_forcing_int temporarily into ptracers_forcing, this will
312        be replaced by a 3D array that is computed before thermodynamics; for
313        this, the tracer ID iTracer had to be included into the parameter list
314        of ptracers_forcing
315      - set up forward_step to call gchem_forcing, that will replace
316        gchem_forcing_int in ptracers_forcing
317      - cleaning up
318    o small cleaning of exch2: remove files that are also in eesupp/src
319    
320    checkpoint56
321    o AIM: read land-Fraction earlier (from ini-fixed) and monitor land at nIter0
322    o mnc: cleanup "full" files--fixes out-of-memory problem
323    o ECCO-GODAE
324      * model/, pkg/, code/, input/ now complete w.r.t. ECCO-GODAE production setup
325      * fully merged and updated from SIO code
326        windstress sign change affects
327        - exf_inscal_[u/v]stress
328        - sign of xx_tau[u/v] adjustments
329        - signs in cost_scat
330      * ctrl_get_gen: avoid update of tau[u/v] for first few days
331      * natl_box_adjoint updated and compressed
332      * 2-level checkpoint switch added
333        (tested in EXP. 1 of natl_box_adjoint)
334      * new switch doInitXX to avoid init. of xx_... in optimcycle=0
335    o SVD
336      * first complete, non-hacked version for SVD calculations
337      * all interfaces clean w.r.t to handling of xx_..., adxx_..., g_xx_...
338        performed via direct access files admtlm_vector.it????
339        (via ctrl_[un]pack)
340      * optimcycle is used for ARPACK iteration counter
341        (note: adxx_... is iterated, rather than xx_...; latter is constant!)
342      * EV problem ok w.r.t. L2-norm in tangent space; need to check other norms
343        and add linear transforms where necessary
344      * controls are initial/final SST, SSS (can be extended; need to check
345        ctrl_set_[un]pack_xyz.F according to ctrl_set_[un]pack_xy.F
346    o mdsio: filename info to both stderr, stdout
347    o exf: exf_inscal_runoff: separated default conversion [m/year] -> [m/sec]
348      from sign change
349    
350    checkpoint55j_post
351    o isolate dissipation tendency (allow to keep it out off AB) in V.I form.
352      affects (truncation level) output.txt of global_ocean.cs32x15(&.thsice)
353    o add consistent build directories and .cvsignore files to verification
354    o added viscA4GridMin and viscA4GridMax for more control on biharmonic viscosity
355    o make all subroutines 30 or less characters in length for certain older
356      compilers to work (a thorough search only turns up two routines in
357      pkg/ptracers)
358    o allow (vecinv only) a different horiz. viscosity for Divergence and Vorticity;
359      affects (truncation level) output.txt of global_ocean.cs32x15(&.thsice)
360    
361    checkpoint55i_post
362    o change arrays for total vertical diffusivity (2.D if explicit,
363      3.D if implicit) ; each ptracer uses its own background value.
364    o added mnc/NetCDF output capability to ocn_compon_interf
365      - added bits to verification/cpl_aim+ocn so that it can run on
366        ITRDA and other clusters without the mpirun "-wd" option
367    o fixed wayward endif in mom_fluxform.F that messed up cyclindrical
368      configuration
369    o give MNC the ability to create additional files rather than
370      exceeding a specified file size limit "MNC_MAX_FILESIZE"
371      - the default is just less than 2GB which is a practical limit
372        on many systems
373    o Compute the non-local term using either KPP vertical diffusivity (=default)
374       or the total vertical diffusivity (when KPP_ghatUseTotalDiffus=T)
375    
376    checkpoint55h_post
377    o add verification test "vermix"
378    o remove all the *_ioinc flags and replace with the single global
379      outputTypesInclusive flag
380    o allow to set a vertical profile of vertical diffusivity for T & S
381    o call PACKAGE_BOOT & PACKAGES_READPARMS just after INI_PARMS
382    o useMNC moved from data.mnc to data.pkg
383    
384    checkpoint55g_post
385    o Renaming carbon AD experiments to comply with testreport conventions
386    o Updating adjoint of Held-Suarez hs94.1x64x5
387    o Fixing directives for non-ECCO forward_step, after ECCO directives
388      have been fixed to avoid recomp. of do_oceanic_phys
389      Works well for global_ocean.90x40x15,
390      but recomp. issue remains for carbon
391    o Updating adjoint output for natl_box_adjoint after
392      pkg/ecco has been modified (see taga c55d_post)
393    
394    checkpoint55f_post
395    o rename to timeave_init_fixed
396    
397    checkpoint55e_post
398    o some delicate re-shuffle of store directives to avoid one
399      extra call of do_oceanic_physics
400      affects ecco_the_main_loop.F, do_oceanic_physics.F
401      checkpoint_lev1_directives.h
402    o NB: this may break global_ocean adjoint temporarily,
403      but it is clear how to fix it. Will do later, need this now.
404    
405    checkpoint55d_post
406    o ECCO specific cost function terms (up-to-date with 1x1 runs)
407    o ecco_cost_weights is modified to 1x1 runs
408    o modifs to allow observations to be read in as
409      single file or yearly files
410    o enable to read exf forcing fields as either
411      single file or yearly files (flag useExfYearlyFields)
412    checkpoint55d_pre
413    
414    o switch between 2-level and 3-level checkpointing
415    o add ability of MNC to write local and "partial" (eg. 2D slices where
416      the full 3D field is never actually stored) arrays to NetCDF files
417      with the correct (that is, the complete multi-dimensional) set of
418      array indicies
419      - used in mom_vecinv() to write the diagFreq output
420      - tested (demonstrated) in verification/aim.5l_cs
421    o further mnc-ification
422      - add verification/lab_sea to the list with mnc setups
423      - fix undefined mnc v-names in cd_code
424      - add kpp to mnc output (both snapshot and timeave)
425    o non-hydrostatic code
426      - added horizontal viscosity parameter viscAhW for w, that replaces viscAh
427        in calc_gw.F
428      - defaults to viscAh
429      - this is useful, when I want to use viscAh=0 (e.g., only biharmonic
430        friction or Leith) in non-hydrostatic mode, as long as there is
431        no biharmonic friction and/or Leigth or equivalent for vertical velocity.
432    o pkg/cost
433      extend simple cost functions to treat time mean quantities
434      (T,U,V) via cost_accumulate_state from cost_tile
435    o multidimAdvection on CS-grid: implement the full 3 pass ; overlap needs to
436        be 2 times larger than the minimum size the advection scheme requires.
437        now get a perfect conservation of salt in advect_cs test-exp (updated)
438    o GGL90 (Gaspar's TKE mixed layer)
439      - add horizontal diffusion of TKE, requires exchanges in
440        do_fields_blocking_exchanges, horizontal diffusivity is zero by
441        default. In OPA there is no horizontal diffusion of TKE but the
442        mixing coefficients are computed from a horizontal average of TKE of
443        6 points or so. I think that diffusion has a little more physical
444        justification.
445      - clean up ggl90_calc in the hope of reducing memory usage (this hope
446        was in vain)
447      - mask tke-variable in ggl90_init
448    o fix mask Pb in multidimAdvection on CS-grid (still a small Pb with ipass)
449    o fix biharmonic diffusion on CS-grid.
450    o more obcs stuff
451      - added obcs_external_fields_load as an alternative to the EXF-pkg option
452        for reading boundary values. This routine is called from
453        obcs_prescribe_read
454      - updated obcs_check
455      - changed sponge layer relaxation parameter units for days to seconds
456      - turned off sponge layer by default
457      - changed argument list of OBCS_CALC to myTime+deltaTclock
458      - fixed about 35 bugs in obcs_external_fields_load
459    
460    checkpoint55c_post
461    o obcs stuff
462      - new runtime flags useOBCSprescribe, useOBCSbalance
463      - re-arranged obcs_calc
464      - moved exf_getobcs to obcs_prescibe_read
465        obcs_prescibe_read is called after ORLANSKI stuff
466        and independent of it (executable can contain all).
467      - updated obcs_check
468      - added exchanges for U,V,gU,gV for useOBCSprescribe=.TRUE.
469        These may be necessary only if tangential velocities are
470        prescribed at OB, not sure, needs testing.
471    o make the MNC_CW_ADD_VATTR_* subroutines all take scalar arguments
472      which simplifies the calls and passes the ifc check-bounds test
473    
474    checkpoint55b_post
475    o add a 2D scalar, Z location, exchange_2 routine.
476    o EXCH_UV for CS-grid: add one u,v in the corner-halo region, allows
477      to compute vorticity on a wider stencil [e.g., vort3(0,1)&(1,0)]
478      affects advect_cs results (for the wrong reason): update output.txt
479    o use a more standard discretization for biharmonic viscosity ;
480     (original version still available with #define MOM_VI_ORIGINAL_VISCA4 )
481      affects results of dome set-up: update output.txt
482    o fix gad_advection.F (CubedSphere part), back to version 1.23
483    o fix bug in mom_vi_del2uv.F (CubedSphere part).
484    
485    checkpoint55a_post
486    o merged code to
487      * prescribe/read time-dependent open boundaries
488        (works in conjunction with exf, cal)
489      * sponge layer code for open boundaries
490      * each boundary N/S/E/W now has its own CPP option
491        (healthy for the adjoint)
492    
493    checkpoint55
494    o up-to-date adjoint of previous breaks
495      - natl_box_adjoint: problem for exp 12, 13: cost = 0. needs fix
496      - global_ocean_ebm: adjoint still needs fix (TLM ok)
497      - global_ocean.90x40x15: extended GMREDI_OPTIONS.h
498      - carbon: * remove tr1-related adjoint verification
499                * add ptracer as control variable
500    o remove all tr1-related code (ALLOW_PASSIVE_TRACER)
501      (adjoint stuff still has some tr1 'names', but all use ptracer arrays)
502    
503    checkpoint54f_post
504    o in verification/carbin/ remove experiment related to
505      ALLOW_PASSIVE_TRACER (array tr1 etc)
506      code_ad/ input_ad/ results_ad
507    
508    o add two new packages
509      - ggl90, TKE-model of Gaspar et al. (1990), Blanke+Delecluse (1993)
510        + subject to optimization (memory)
511      - opps, OPPS (ocean penetrative plume scheme) of Paluszkiewicz+Romea (1997)
512        + subject to reordering (many GOTOs in the original code)
513        + so far opps is called for every (i,j) point, and then operates in
514          the vertical; one may want to reorder the scheme in order operate in
515          horizontal slabs at the cost of (a lot of) memory, at least ten new 3D
516          fields)
517    o overhaul of IO so that we now have flags for MDSIO and/or MNC
518      - all verification tests compile and run with linux_ia32_g77
519      - defaults are compatible with current input files--nothing
520        should change if you were not previously using MNC
521      - MNC output has been added in numerous places (eg. timeave)
522        but there are still a few writes not yet do-able with MNC
523        (this is in progress)
524      - flags now allow for either/or/both use of MDSIO and MNC and
525        documentation will soon follow
526      - numerous small formatting cleanups for ProTeX
527    o add version info (via BUILD_INFO.h) to MNC and stdout
528    
529    checkpoint54e_post
530    o add two new packages
531      - pp81 (Packanowski and Philander, 1981), Richardson number and
532        stratification dependent mixing
533      - my82 (Mellor and Yamada, 1982) level 2 turbulence closure scheme
534      - these scheme operate in a similar manner as KPP (without ghat, of
535        course), however there is only one diffusivity that is used for both
536        temperature and salinity (and passive tracers)ç
537    o add offline package
538    o add "verification/dic_example" which contains a dic-gchem-ptracer setup
539      provided by Stephanie Dutkiewicz
540    o genmake2: add ability to search for C compilers and cleanup test output
541      - fixes recent SX-6 problems and should help with others (eg. HP-UX)
542    
543    checkpoint54d_post
544    o data.diagnostics: if levels() is unspecified then ALL levels are diagnosed
545    o bug fix in pkg/cal/cal_addtime.F for TheCalendar='model' day count is wrong,
546      leading to additional shift by 5 days each year of integration
547       (i.e. leading to considerable offset over the years)
548    o update global_ocean.cs32x15/thsice: use z* + RealFW + staggerTimeStep
549    o start with no AB and no initial filtering (staggerTimeStep):
550      change the results of test-exp: hs94.128x64x5, hs94.1x64x5 & hs94.cs-32x32x5
551    o move ocean specific S/R calls from forward_step.F to do_oceanic_phys.F
552      (external loading & cpl import/export stay in forward_step.F)
553    o update coupling interface to work with new staggerTimeStep
554    o change MDSIO ptracers_pickup.
555    o fix a bug in Flux deriv. vs Ts (pkg/aim_v23/phy_suflux_sice.F);
556    o genmake2 fixes so netcdf now works on halem ("osf1_alpha_*")
557    o bugs fixed in kpp_calc.F (ustarY) and external_forcing.F (Qsw & Partial-cell)
558    
559    checkpoint54c_post
560    o replace surfaceTendency U,V,S,T,Tice,Ptr by surfaceForcing U,V,S,T,Tice,Ptr
561      this affects (truncation error) output.txt of test-exp:
562       global_ocean_ebm,_pressure,.cs32x15(&.thsice), lab_sea & natl_box
563    o pkg/kpp: replace pMask by maskC to reduce memory size (one 3.D array)
564    o change Qnet to always be the net heat flux, (+upward).
565      affects (truncation error) output of natl_box exp.: updated
566    o define the max number of passive tracers in PTRACERS_SIZE.h
567    o start to test mnc routinely in exp0
568    o add sea-ice loading (sIceLoad) as a new forcing field.
569    
570    checkpoint54b_post
571    o add testreport "-j JOBS" option for parallel builds (tested and pretty
572       impressive on Altix and Opteron systems)
573    o diagnostics can now write NetCDF files through the mnc package
574    o staggerTimeStep & NLFS: update pkg aim_v23 & thsice; update aim.5l_cs output
575    o staggerTimeStep & multi-Dim-Advec: Exch(U,V) added
576    o staggerTimeStep & NLFS: rescale T & S surface tendencies.
577      affects (truncation error) output of lab_sea & natl_box exp.: updated
578    o change pickup _cd & _ptracers (old pickup restart: usePickupBeforeC54=.T.)
579    
580    checkpoint54a_post
581    o re-write staggerTimeStep: step fwd U,V and then T,S (reverse the order).
582    o change pickup file (to restart from old pickup, set usePickupBeforeC54=.T.)
583    o get a perfect restart when using RealFreshWaterFlux + NLFS (not finished)
584    o update output of all exp. that use staggerTimeStep (except hs94.cs & 2D)
585      + internal_wave (shift in writing cg2d_ini_res)
586    checkpoint54a_pre
587    
588    o require forcing_In_AB=.FALSE. and remove surfaceTendencyTice from pkg/seaice
589      - modified verification/lab_sea and natl_box_adjoint accordingly
590    
591    checkpoint54
592    checkpoint53g_post
593    o prepare splitting of thermodynamics: store convect.counter in common block
594    o store d.etaH/dt (instead of Div.hV) in common ; affects (truncation error)
595      output of: global_ocean.cs32x15, global_ocean_pressure & internal_wave
596    o cnh's modifs to gad_advection.F for cube-sphere multi-dim advection
597    o new parameter "nShapS": allow to treat differently S from T (nShapT)
598    o separate Vert.Advec.Scheme from horizontal Advec.Scheme (T & S)
599    o restore adjointability
600    
601    checkpoint53f_post
602    o modifications that affect AIM experiment results (update output.txt):
603      - no advection of S at top interface Nr (pkg/generic_advdiff)
604      - air surf. temp: use lower value between T0 & T1 (phy_suflux_prep.F)
605    o AIM pkg:
606      - include stability function into surf.Flux derivative relative to Tsurf
607      - calculate clear-sky radiation & surface temp. change (for diagnostics)
608    
609    checkpoint53e_post
610    o merged cylindrical coord configuration
611    o added rotating_tank experiment
612    checkpoint53e_pre
613    
614    checkpoint53d_post
615    o faulks upgraded: re-generate output.txt that have changed:
616       global_ocean.cs32x15(.thsice), global_ocean_ebm, lab_sea, natl_box
617    o Added Bryan and Lewis, 1979, vertical diffusivity profile
618    o pkg/land: fix problem in land_impl_temp.F when Ts arround freezing.
619    o added Sadourny discretization of Coriolis
620      - moved some PARAMETERS from mom_*_coriolis.F to PARAMS.h
621      - re-enabled use of omega3 (useAbsVorticity)
622    o added Leith (Phys. Fluids, 1968, 10, 1409-1416) variable viscosity for
623      vector-invariant equations
624      - note: does *NOT* yet use same variable visc. for no-slip BC's.
625    o recoded the lateral boundary conditions for non-hydrostatic w, this time
626      hopefully without new bugs
627      - still to do: biharmonic friction for non-hydrostatic w
628    o bug fix for mom_*_sidedrag: rA -> rAs,rAw
629    o regenerated output for global_ocean_ebm (using -ieee)
630    o fix mom_common/mom_*_sidedrag.F to recover numeric output prior to creation
631      of mom_common/
632      - simple re-arrangement of instructions within computing loop
633    checkpoint53d_pre
634    
635    checkpoint53c_post
636    o new version of coupler for AIM+thSIce and Ocean models
637     - new fields (SSS,h_MixLayer ...) are exchanged through the coupler
638     - land: change Evaporation of snow
639     - aim with thSIce: fix bug in snow-precip.
640    o changes to calc_gw.F
641     - bug fix for w^2 term near the bottom boundary
642     - (hopefully) improve the lateral slip boundary condtions for use with
643        partial/looped cells
644      - because the bug fix changes two verification experiments anyway (exp5
645        and plume on slope), change the lateral boundary condition from half slip
646        to the value of no_slip_sides
647    o ebm package wasnt quite up to the parallel task. Fixed that.
648    o Adjoint of EBM package + verification
649      * TLM OK
650      * ADM not sufficient accuracy yet (needs further testing)
651    
652    checkpoint53b_post
653    o Commiting new energy balance model to repository
654      * package is pkg/ebm
655      * verif. is verification/global_ocean_ebm
656      * references are in ebm_driver.F
657    C      * X. Wang, P. Stone and J. Marotzke, 1999:
658    C        Global thermohaline circulation. Part I:
659    C        Sensitivity to atmospheric moisture transport.
660    C        J. Climate 12(1), 71-82
661    C      * X. Wang, P. Stone and J. Marotzke, 1999:
662    C        Global thermohaline circulation. Part II:
663    C        Sensitivity with interactive transport.
664    C        J. Climate 12(1), 83-91
665    C      * M. Nakamura, P. Stone and J. Marotzke, 1994:
666    C        Destabilization of the thermohaline circulation
667    C        by atmospheric eddy transports.
668    C        J. Climate 7(12), 1870-1882
669    o Will need long integration testing.
670    checkpoint53b_pre
671    
672    o created pkg/mom_common in preparation for variable viscosity code
673    o renamed and split ini_mnc_io
674    o pkg/land: only liquid water can diffuse or run-off
675    o AIM using land: soil wetness availability account for snow
676    o added printMapIncludesZeros to EEPARMS namelist
677    
678    checkpoint53a_post
679    o restore TAMC compatiility for exf_constants.h
680      (no usage of _d in .h)
681    o Additional storing in KPP in an attempt to fix
682      TAMC problem with adjoint of KPP code.
683      (no success...)
684      Identical code works fine with TAF.
685    o Fixed verification/natl_box_adjoint experiments.
686      Initial conditions for Experiments 4 and 5 are now
687      set to "SEAICE_initialHEFF=0", which is more reasonable,
688      and hence gives results closer to that of Experiment 2.
689      Experiment 6 requires "SEAICE_initialHEFF=1" and is working once again.
690    
691    checkpoint53
692    o stable checkpoint with up to date adjoint
693      TLM tests only run for 1st grdchk at the moment. Its unclear if
694      this is a code problem or a problem with resetting code for g_
695      variables that is being autogenerated wrong.
696      Otherwise:
697       o code is testing well on Linux (P4 and AMD), SGI Alitix and Irix.
698       o IBM and HPQ tests could not be run because NCAR (IBM) and NCCS (HPQ)
699         are both still in chaos following their security messes.
700    
701    checkpoint52n_post
702    o various build (mostly genmake2) changes including:
703      - ability to build/run more easily within Cygwin and MacOS X
704      - more complicated Makefiles with a stronger dependence on Gnu Make
705    o pkg/seaice modifications
706      - added SEAICE_deltaTtherm and SEAICE_deltaTdyn in order to reduce cost
707        of pkg/seaice.  For time being, SEAICE_deltaTtherm = deltaTtracer
708        and SEAICE_deltaTdyn must be integer multiple of SEAICE_deltaTtherm
709      - changed proxy for geostrophic velocity and updated
710        verification/lab_sea/results/* accordingly
711      - removed ADI dynamic solver from pkg/seaice
712      - replaced all occurrences of 1/CSTICE or 1/CSUICE
713        they caused a segmentation fault under certain circumstances
714      - removed unused field WATR
715    o bug fix in exf-package:
716      -  u/vwind are defined at tracer/pressure points. The values of u/vwindmask
717         now reflect that.
718    o small fixes in the cal-package:
719      - set reference date to first of January for the 'model'-calendar
720      - failing of cal_CheckDate in cal_FullDate now actually results in a
721        warning
722    o small modifications in exf-package to increase flexibility:
723      - change climtempfreeze from a constant to a runtime parameter that
724        is specified in data.exf_clim (default = -1.9)
725      - introduce runtime parameter windstressmax (default = 2.0) that is
726        specified in data.exf
727    o fix in pkg/thsice:
728      - update Evap (Tsf changes) to be consistent with Latent heat flux
729      - maintain snow precipitation unchanged (even if Tsf >=0).
730     both affect global_ocean.cs32x15/(.thsice) results ; update output.txt.thsice
731    
732    checkpoint52m_post
733    o commented out call to cal_GetMonthsRec in swfrac.F and added some comments;
734      this does not change any of the results, because myIter=0 in swfrac always
735      lead to jwtype=2 (the default anyway), but the call makes little sense
736      as a default
737    o no SHORTWAVE HEATING lost at the bottom; affects lab_sea output; updated
738    o re-work pkg/thsice interface with ocean & bulk_force pkg to allow
739      atmospheric model (AIM) to use it ; add a "slab ocean" component.
740    o pkg/aim_v23 : add interface to call thermodynamic sea-ice (thsice)
741    o update global_ocean.cs32x15/output (.thsice) after changes in pkg/thsice
742    o extending useSingleCpuIO option to work with new exch2 I/O format
743      - old-style, missing-tile I/O is still accessible by defining CPP
744        option MISSING_TILE_IO in pkg/mdsio/MDSIO_OPTIONS.h
745    o monitor package can write to NetCDF files and/or STDOUT
746    o fix re-definition bug in MNC_GRID_INIT_ALL()
747    o doc/api_reference added
748      - a framework for building an API Reference Manual using all
749        the "protex" comments embedded in the code
750      - see pkg/generic_advdiff, pkg/mnc for examples
751    o MNC:
752      - make myThid the last argument for all subroutines
753      - new default for the grid files: NO halos
754      - add useMNC and other run-time flags
755      - separate per-file-group handling of the unlimited dimension
756      - early initialization of MNC w/ flags read at the eeboot stage
757        and lookup tables set in initialize_fixed
758      - write all MNC output to a freshly-created directory
759    o thermodynamics sea-ice (thsice) is now tested with testreport.
760    o test exp. advect_cs: use the standard cs32 grid ; update output.
761    o Added functionality to grdchk:
762      pick global i,j,k position (or nearest wet) where to perform check.
763    
764    checkpoint52l_post
765    o new land formulation:
766      a) use ground enthalpy as prognostic variable to ensure exact
767         energy conservation.
768      b) account for water temperature and for latent heat of freezing
769         in all processes (rain, run-off, ground storage)
770      c) compute surface and ground temperature implicitly.
771    o aim_v23 modification for new land model:
772      a) Treat separately land / ocean / sea-ice surface fluxes
773         to allow implicit computation of land & sea-ice surface temp.

791    o fixed bug introduced in pkg/monitor
792    o accuracy ctrlprec = 32 insuffient for gradient checks using
793      averaged fields (I/O via cost_averages)
794      -> use ctrl.h in active_file*.F to control I/O precision.
795    o paramter list of CALL ADTHE_MAIN_LOOP
796    o added initial do_the_model_io to ecco
797    o set all ...Freq to zero after cost_final

802    o fix nchklev in tamc.h for global_ocean...
803    o Bringing flow and store directives up-to-date
804    o Really weird thing!
805      call do_the_model_io from the_main_loop with parameters
806      starttime, niter0, instead of mytime, myiter, screws up the adjoint:
807      TAF places a faulty re-call of initialise_varia
808      after cost_final call which should not be there!
809    checkpoint52j_pre
810    
811    o tweaked pkg/mdsio/mdsio_readfield.F to have more useful logic and
812      error messages

840    o added useSingleCPUIO flag to monitor.F and mon_out.F
841    o added temporary hack for sea-ice dynamics on the cube:
842      metric terms are ignored and it is assumed that
843      there is no sea-ice on cube faces 1, 2, 4, and 5.
844    
845    checkpoint52f_post
846    o added exch2 cube routines to pkg/exch2

849    checkpoint52f_pre
850    
851    checkpoint52e_post
852    o first attempt to solve vertical advection (momemtum & T,S) Implicitly
853      for now, only implemented with Lax-Wendroff (tracer) and VectInv (mom)
854    o step.1 : rewrite (as in MultiDimAdvec) explicit tracer stepping (gad_calc_rhs.F)
855      to work with implicit vertical advection and AB ;
856    o Implic. vert. advect. implemented with flux-limiter, c2, u3 and c4 scheme.
857    o update output (gad_calc_rhs.F changes affect truncation error) of exp:
858     front_relax, global_ocean .cs32x15 & _pressure, internal_wave, lab_sea, natl_box
859    checkpoint52e_pre
860    
861    o fix bug in impldiff when Nr=1 or Nr=2.
862    o change the albedo in pkg/thsice (as GISS model); update output_thsice.txt
863    o little changes (fftpack, aim/phy_suflux ...) to pass the "checkbounds" test.
864    o fix deltaTfreesurf in update_cg2d.F (left from c45d_post): affects 2
865      ocean exp. that use NLFS: global_ocean.cs32x15 & global_ocean_pressure

871    o re-tiled many expts to allow comparison in multi-processor mode
872      - updated output accordingly
873      - changed hs94.128x64x5 to use intial T from file rather than use the
874        random number generator
875    o add infrastructure in model routines for fizhi and gridalt packages
876    o change global_ocean.cs32x15 because of Pb with GM on CS-grid.
877    o changes to permit hi-res, cubed-sphere, configuration
878      - added useSingleCpuIO capability to mdsio_readfield.F and exf_interp.F
879      - added "#undef ALLOW_USE_MPI" support to eesupp/src/scatter_2d.F
880      - added pkg/exf/exf_set_uv.F for on-the-fly interpolation and rotation
881        of surface winds for the cube
882      (A verification experiment, based on global_ocean.cs32x15, but with
883       pkg/seaice turned on and with on-the-fly interpolation from the NCEP
884       Gaussian grid is described in MITgcm_contrib/high_res_cube/README_ice,
885       complete with example surface forcing files and matlab scripts to look
886       at the output and compare it with that of global_ocean.cs32x15.)
887    o packages pickup: $PKG_write_pickup called from packages_write_pickup ;
888       but call to $PKG_read_pickup remains in $PKG_ini_vars: change CD_code
889       to conform to the common rule.
890    o check-in the first version of the coupler + interfaces for multi-components
891       set-up (Chris's version, adapted to work on cubed-sphere grid); use MPI.
892       - imply modification in eesupp (MPI_COMM_MODEL < MPI_COMM_WORLD).
893       - atmosphere: use pkg aim_v23 ; no sea-ice for now.
894       - ocean and atmos. share the same horizontal grid (no interpolation).
895       - exchanges between component and coupler is done in forward_step
896    o new verification experiment, cpl_aim+ocn:
897       coupled ocean - AIM atmosphere on cs32 grid.
898    
899    checkpoint52d_pre
900    o surface flux time-av diagnostic modified for NLFS & RealFreshWater
901    o add call to AIM pendant S/R in external_forcing & external_fields_load.F
902    
903    checkpoint52c_post
904    o Fixing OPTIONS files for use of exf:
905      - ALLOW_ECCO not needed
906      - ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h should not be included from
907        EXF_OPTIONS.h/CAL_OPTIONS.h, but from CPP_OPTIONS.h
908        as has been the case in the past
909      - All cal/exf related options are currently set in
910        single header file. Should remain so until we
911        agree on a consistent new policy.
912    o Removed all CPP options for cal package.
913      cal has no more CPP options.
914    o modified STOREs in GAD_ADVECTION
915    o corrected key comp. for passkey
916    
917    checkpoint52b_post

920     - modify fluxes but do not change theta directly;
921     - light cleaning of bulk_force pkg (still needed with thsice).
922     - add forcing fields + data files in global_ocean.cs32x15/inp_thsice
923       + output_thsice.txt to test thsice & bulk_force pkgs.
924    o put back grid & coriolis monitor output.
925    checkpoint52b_pre
926    
927    o call "do_the_model_io" at the beginning (=> dump initial state)
928    o use rhoConstFresh to define convertEmP2rUnit (was done only in ocean-P)
929    o sort out interplay between tamc.h and PTRACERS_OPTIONS.h
930      (need info on NUMBER_OF_PTRACERS)
931    o missing PTRACERS headers in some routines
932    o default tamc.h in pkg/autodiff supposed to crash
933      to ensure proper customization
934    
935    checkpoint52a_post
936    o modifications to make FREEZE (_SURFACE) flux visible to pkg/kpp
937      - moved surfaceTendencyTice from pkg/seaice to main code
938      - subroutine FREEZE_SURFACE now limits only surface temperature
939        and is called in FORWARD_STEP (if allowFreezing=.TRUE.)
940        => new output.txt for global_ocean.cs32x15 & global_with_exf
941      - keep the old version of FREEZE for backward compatibility;
942        global_ocean.90x40x15 left unchanged using useOldFreezing=.TRUE.

951    o some bug fixes for #undef REAL4_IS_SLOW
952    
953    checkpoint52 = ecco_c52_e35
954    o after testing adjoints of checkpoint51u_post
955    
956    checkpoint51u_post
957    o this is the post-merge tag of the ecco-branch
958      (needs another clean checkout and re-testing)
959    o various natl_box_adjoint configs and results
960      but no input fields
961    o obcs adjoint not yet merged!
962    o adding ECCO global 1x1 and 2x2 degree configs
963    o updated/extended some store directives for seaice
964    o pkg/ecco now containes ecco-specific part of cost function

968      (new namelist ecco_cost_nml)
969    o in ctrl/ cleaned some cross-dependencies and updated CPP options
970    
971    checkpoint51t_post
972    o this is the pre-merge tag of the ecco-branch
973    
974    checkpoint51s_post

976    o pkg/grdchk
977      - renamed 'ph-grd 3' to 'grad-res'
978      - merged from ecco-branch
979        (remaining bug fixes for obcs gradient checks)
980      - additional high-precision output for testreport
981        (grep for 'precision_grdchk_result')
982    
983    checkpoint51r_post
984    o cleaned up or removed CPP_OPTIONS.h files
985    o updated results for some of the tests to reflect the new
986      optfiles (-ieee: -O0 instead of -O3)
987    
988    checkpoint51q_post
989    o cd_code:
990      - moved cd_scheme.F -> cd_code_scheme.F

998        xx_/adxx_ I/O
999      - ctrl_pack/unpack cleaned
1000        (new routines ctrl_init_ctrlvar.F, pkg/ctrl/ctrl_init_wet.F)
1001      - confined inclusion of AD_CONFIG.h to where necessary.
1002    o genmake2: changed AD dependencies from SRCFILES to AD_FILES
1003    
1004    checkpoint51p_post
1005    o create initial cd_code package
1006      - WARNING: the initialization of fields within packages
1007        is broken because INI_FIELDS (where READ_CHECKPOINT is
1008        called) is called *before* PACKAGES_INIT_VARIABLES.
1009        This seems to be backwards since
1010        1) its important to initially zero the entire field including
1011           the "halo" region
1012        2) zeroing needs to be done *before* reading pickup info
1013           and the pickup call might or might not happen in any
1014           particular run
1015      - this needs an overhaul for R2
1016    o cleanup verification/*/code/GMREDI_OPTIONS.h
1017    o cleanup testreport
1018    
1019    checkpoint51o_post

1027    o cleaning some ALLOW_TANGENTLINEAR_RUN -> ALLOW_AUTODIFF
1028    o bug fix in find_alpha.F for MDJWF:
1029      - modif. to alpha = 1/D*( dN/dT - rho*dD/Dt) to account for
1030        change rho -> rho-rhoConst
1031      - replace call find_rho to find_rhonum
1032    o initialisation of rFlx extended to full array (required by TAF)
1033      and shifted to thermodynamics
1034    o removed PTRACERS.h in ptracers routine

1051      - FREEZE & EXTERNAL_FORCING_SURF moved to FORWARD_STEP
1052      - subroutine FREEZE now limits only surface temperature
1053        (this means new output.txt for global_ocean.90x40x15,
1054         global_ocean.cs32x15, and global_with_exf)
1055    o added surface flux output variables to TIMEAVE_STATVARS

1083    
1084    checkpoint51k_post
1085    o change default to: useNHMTerms=.FALSE.

1170      - avoid "_d" constructs in PARAMETER declarations
1171      - avoid interrupting lines by comment lines
1172    o Use cluster local disks for purely local I/O
1173      vs. globally visible disks needed for ctrl stuff
1174      (merged from ecco-branch)
1175      - new active_file_loc... and mdsio_..._loc routines
1176      - affected packages: autodiff, ctrl, grdchk, mdsio
1177    
1178    checkpoint51c_post
1179    o introducing integer flag debugLevel
1180      - debLevZero: suppress all output
1181      - debLevA: standard
1182      - debLevB: equivalent to current debugMode=.TRUE.
1183    o introducing pathname variable mdsioLocalDir for mdsio
1184      that can be specified at runtime
1185      (relevant for cluster I/O to local disk)
1186    `
1187    >>>checkpoint51b_post
1188    adjoint of ptracers
1189    o disentangled ALLOW_PTRACERS using new ALLOW_GCHEM
1190    o extended state in checkpoint_lev?, etc.
1191    o alternative ctrl/cost with tr1 or ptracer
1192    o new comlev1_bibj_ptracers
1193    o new ptracers.flow
1194    o made ptracers_forcing same as external_forcing_s
1195    o added verification for adjoint with ptracers
1196      - adm. grdchk fail so far
1197      - tlm. grdchk OK
1198      - checked tapelev/comlev recomputations: OK
1199    <<<checkpoint51b_pre
1200    
1201    checkpoint51a_post
1202    o added code for biogeochemistry package
1203      - new pkgs: dic, gchem
1204      - new subroutine in ptracers
1205    o modify code for biogeo packages
1206      - in model/src and pkg/ptracers
1207    
1208    checkpoint51
1209    o merged improved packages from ecco-branch (ecco_c51_e34) to MAIN
1210      - autodiff, ctrl, exf, grdchk, seaice
1211      kept separate packages
1212      - cost, ecco, obcs
1213    o updating verification/internal_wave, verification/lab_sea
1214      (all verif's pass on faulks.lcs.mit.edu RH7.3, g77)
1215    
1216    checkpoint50i_post
1217    o Preparing next differentiable checkpoint and sync
1218      of MAIN vs. ecco-branch
1219      - 1st step: this one is differentiable
1220      - 2nd step: next(! not this) checkpoint will have updated packages
1221                  from ecco-branch)
1222    
1223    checkpoint50h_post
1224    o new package "land": provide surface BC for AIM.
1225    o pkg/ptracers: apply exchange to all tracers after reading a pickup.
1226    o AIM: use true log-P extrapolation for near surface temp (= as in
1227        F.Molteni paper) ; update aim.5l_cs output.
1228    o New variable in PARM03 for more flexible pickups
1229    o somewhat cleaned package initialisation sequence for
1230      ctrl/ cost/ ecco/ in packages_... routines
1231    
1232    checkpoint50g_post
1233    o merged with release1_p17 (pkg/seaice and verification/lab_sea)
1234      - added SEAICE_MULTILEVEL for 8-category sea-ice thermodynamics
1235      - LSR sea-ice dynamic solver moved to SouthWest B-grid location and
1236        made the default because of faster convergence than ADI
1237    
1238    checkpoint50f_post
1239    o exf totally restructured
1240      - replaced all exf_set_ routines by one generic exf_set_gen.F
1241        and made sure it's still differentiable
1242      - split exf_getffields.F into new exf_bulkformulae.F
1243      - exf_inscal_/exf_outscal_ suffixes consistent with field names
1244      - updated adjoint/makefile and relevant verif. accordingly
1245    
1246    checkpoint50f_pre

1254     o removed lots of single quotes from comments
1255    
1256    checkpoint50e_post
1257    o make KPP work with PTRACERS
1258     - fix gad_calc_rhs to call new routine kpp_transport_ptr, which is
1259       nearly a copy of kpp_transport_s
1260     - there is no analogue to SurfaceTendencyS, so I have to use
1261       gPtr(of the surface layer) instead
1262    o add a new platform SunFire+mpi (SunFire 15000) to genmake
1263    checkpoint50e_pre
1264    
1265    checkpoint50d_post
1266    o change kpp output from multiple-record state files to single-record state
1267      files analogous to write_state.F
1268    o reduce the output frequency of cg3d-related stuff to the monitor frequency,
1269      analogous to the cg2d-related output.
1270    o fix small problem with in ptracers_write_checkpoint.F: len(suff)=512,
1271      so that writing to internal file fn (with length 512) fails.
1272    checkpoint50d_pre
1273    
1274    checkpoint50c_post
1275    o fix problem in ini_procs.F when using MPI (was there since checkpoint48f)
1276    o add monitor diagnostic of vorticity (mon_vort3.F) and potential energy.
1277    o add time-average diagnostic of U*V and vertical diffusive flux for theta.
1278    o bug fixed in convective adjustment diagnostic (multi-tile set-up).
1279    o 4th Order Adv scheme: return to previous (c40pre7) masking near boundaries.
1280    
1281    checkpoint50c_pre
1282    Merging from release1_p13:
1283    o bug fix for pkg/seaice dynamic solver
1284    o Added SEAICE_initialHEFF to pkg/seaice
1285    
1286    checkpoint50b_post
1287    o store u*,v* in gU,V instead of in guNm1,gvNm1
1288    o in order to put the momForcing out of the Adams-Bashforth:
1289      move forcing & CD-scheme calls from mom_fluxform & mom_vecinv
1290      to timestep.F
1291    o new flag "useCDscheme" (default=F); replace guCD,gvCD by local arrays
1292    o re-generate output for highly sensitive test-exp:
1293       global_ocean_pressure, ideal_2D_oce, lab_sea, natl_box
1294    
1295    checkpoint50b_pre
1296    o restore the use of momAdvection & useCoriolis flags (mom_vecinv)
1297    o corrected CPP option mismatch in exf_Bulk... functions for case
1298      #define ALLOW_ATM_WIND && #undef ALLOW_ATM_TEMP
1299    
1300    checkpoint50a_post
1301    o Bug fix for merging between c50 and KPP.
1302      ikey was passed from thermodynamics to kpp_calc via
1303      common block rather than being recomputed in kpp_calc,
1304      in contradiction with new key itdkey.
1305      New key ikppkey created, and tamc.h headers updated.
1306    
1307    checkpoint50
1308    - 2nd step of merge with ecco-branch:
1309      merge changes in ecco-branch back into main trunk
1310    - bug fix in find_alpha
1311    - more storing in gmredi_calc_tensor.F, kpp_routines.F
1312    - avoid iterative loop in ini_pressure for ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC
1313    - merged some sliced AD support routines
1314    
1315    checkpoint49
1316    merged from ecco-branch:
1317    o exf:
1318      - Enable initialisation of forcing fields to constant
1319        (runtime) values.
1320      - in exf_getffields.F
1321        Reduce i-/j-loop to interior domain, discarding overlaps.
1322        That also fixes wrong TAF-key computations for key_1, key_2
1323        with bulf formulae.
1324      - exf_init.F modify #ifdef for exf_init_evap
1325      - exf_getffieldrec.F, ctrl_getrec.F
1326        The following INT-usages are not safe:
1327          fldsecs  = int(fldsecs/fldperiod)*fldperiod
1328          fldcount = int(fldsecs/fldperiod) + 1
1329        and were modified.
1330    o autodiff: checkpoint_lev...
1331      - updated storing for bulk formulae (some arrays were missing)
1332      - added state for seaice package
1333      - synchronized with main branch
1334    o DIVA:
1335      Modif.s in
1336      - the_main_loop.F
1337      - the_model_main.F
1338      and added cost_final_restore.F cost_final_store.F
1339      o With these changes, it is possible to fully separate
1340        the first forward run to compute the cost function (mdthe_main_loop)
1341        and adjoint runs over individual DIVA intervals (adthe_main_loop)
1342        into separate model executions.
1343        This enables better tuning of DIVA to given queue sizes.
1344      o Loss of cost function value in consecutive DIVA runs is
1345        fixed by storing to 'costfinal' file.
1346      o Appropriate call of ctrl_unpack/_pack,grdchk_main at
1347        beginning/end of adjoint integration is accounted for.
1348      The current changes apply to TAF-1.4.26.
1349      TAF has one remaining bug, requiring one manual change
1350      (see MITgcm manual).
1351    o cal: synchronized between MAIN and ecco-branch
1352    
1353    checkpoint48i_post
1354    o Changes to restore differentiability of code w.r.t. previous tag
1355      (mostly adding new routines to make list and replacing
1356      pressure by totPhiHyd).
1357    o Updated and merged grdchk package
1358      - has both ADM and TLM checks
1359      - works for single- and multi-proc.
1360      - output cleaned
1361      - worked successfully for parallel DIVA
1362    o genmake:
1363      - Adding -platform=SP4
1364      - Modif. for DEC Alpha (many don't have makedepend; use mkdep instead).
1365    o Modif. for DIVA:
1366      ctrl_unpack should not be called in intermediate DIVA interval.
1367      (similar thing would apply for active files such as
1368      tbar, sbar, psbar, which should not be reinitialised;
1369      only relevant for ecco-branch)
1370    
1371    checkpoint48h_post
1372    o improve "ini_p_ground" when using finite difference form for calc_phi_hyd
1373    o Added net flux to downward flux conversion to pkg/exf/exf_getffields.F
1374    o Added SEAICE_initialHEFF to pkg/seaice
1375    o ecco_the_model_main.F: SEAICE_WRITE_PICKUP must precede WRITE_CHECKPOINT
1376    
1377    checkpoint48g_post
1378    --- EOS:
1379    o compute locally the pressure for use in EOS: UNESCO, JMD95P, MDJWF
1380      store total Potential in totPhyHyd for diagnostics & EOS.
1381    o fix restart and overlap Pb when using Z-coord and EOS funct. of P
1382    --- Pressure/geopotential gradient:
1383    o use Ro_surf & R_low instead of hFac in cal_phi_hyd:
1384    o NLFS + p-coord.: eta*Alpha' is not longer lagging 1.time-step behind
1385      ( changes results of global_ocean_pressure )
1386    o NLFS + z-coord.: add eta*Rho' contribution.
1387    o accurate phiHyd when using interface-W at the middle between 2 centers
1388     ( changes results of ideal_2D_oce )
1389    o includes r* 2nd term in potential gradient.
1390    
1391    checkpoint48f_post
1392    Merging from release1_p12:
1393    o Modifications for using pkg/exf with pkg/seaice
1394      - improved description of the various forcing configurations

1396      - units/sign fix for evap computation in exf_getffields.F
1397      - updated verification/global_with_exf/results/output.txt
1398    o Added pkg/sbo for computing IERS Special Bureau for the Oceans
1399      (SBO) core products, including oceanic mass, center-of-mass,
1400      angular, and bottom pressure (see pkg/sbo/README.sbo).
1401    o Lower bound for viscosity/diffusivity in pkg/kpp/kpp_routines.F
1402      to avoid negative values in shallow regions.
1403      - updated verification/natl_box/results/output.txt
1404      - updated verification/lab_sea/results/output.txt
1405    o MPI gather, scatter: eesupp/src/gather_2d.F and scatter_2d.F
1406    o Added useSingleCpuIO option (see PARAMS.h).
1407    o Updated useSingleCpuIO option in mdsio_writefield.F to
1408      work with multi-field files, e.g., for single-file pickup.
1409    o pkg/seaice:
1410      - bug fix in growth.F: QNET for no shortwave case
1411      - added HeffFile for specifying initial sea-ice thickness
1412      - changed SEAICE_EXTERNAL_FLUXES wind stress implementation
1413    o Added missing /* */ to CPP comments in pkg/seaice, pkg/exf,
1414      kpp_transport_t.F, forward_step.F, and the_main_loop.F
1415    o pkg/seaice:
1416      - adjoint-friendly modifications
1417      - added a SEAICE_WRITE_PICKUP at end of the_model_main.F
1418    
1419    checkpoint48e_post
1420    o New S/R for diagnostic of bottom pressure (phi0surf was missing in c48d_post)
1421    o dynamics: change definition of computational domain & adapt mom_fluxform
1422      accordingly ; when viscA4=0, allows to run the dynamics with Olx=Oly=2.
1423    o following exp works with Olx=Oly=2 (and pass through checkbounds option):
1424        adjust_nlfs.cs-32x32x1 adjustment.128x64x1 adjustment.cs-32x32x1
1425        exp0 exp1 exp2 exp4 exp5 hs94.cs-32x32x5 hs94.128x64x5 hs94.1x64x5
1426        global_ocean.90x40x15 global_with_exf global_ocean_pressure
1427        inverted_barometer solid-body.cs-32x32x1
1428      (high order AdvScheme and/or multiDimAd works with Olx=Oly=2 ? not sure)
1429    
1430    checkpoint48d_post
1431    o in preparation for r*:
1432     a) use pre-computed gradient of hydrostatic potential:
1433        changes in timestep.F & mom_cdscheme.F affects results of ideal_2D_oce
1434     b) move phi0surf from calc_phi_hyd to calc_grad_phi_hyd:
1435        => affects results of glob_oce_pressure (different truncation error)  
1436      update output.txt of ideal_2D_oce & global_ocean_pressure
1437    
1438    checkpoint48d_pre
1439    o in preparation for r*:
1440      new S/R (calc_grad_phi_hyd.F) to compute Hydrostatic potential gradient.
1441      pass the 2 comp. of the grad. as arguments to momentum S/R.
1442      but for the moment, only used if it does not change the results.
1443    o add finite volume form of calc_phi_hyd for buoyancyRelation OCEANIC & OCEANICP
1444    
1445    checkpoint48c_post
1446    Modifications in treatment of initial flux forcing controls
1447    to avoid extra storing of flux fields.
1448    
1449    checkpoint48c_pre
1450    o Added tidal_basin_2d experiment (currently 1D!)
1451    o can use r* Coordinate with OBC (but Orlanski Rad. BC not yet implemented)
1452    
1453    checkpoint48b_post
1454    o r* coordinate added in #ifdef NONLIN_FRSURF block.
1455     (modification to pressure gradient not yet implemented)
1456    o mom_fluxform: new S/R mom_calc_rtrans.F computes vertical transports
1457      (for U & V) that are used for vertical advection of momentum.
1458    
1459    checkpoint48a_post
1460    o In preparation for r*, use temp. array to compute vertical transport
1461       in flux-form momentum pkg. => change results of few test-exp.
1462      Update output of: exp4, exp5, front_relax, global_ocean_pressure,
1463                        lab_sea, natl_box & plume_on_slope
1464    
1465    checkpoint48
1466    o fix small bug that was causing lot of warning (TIMER_STOP 'UPDATE_CG2D')
1467    
1468    checkpoint47j_post
1469    o add new exp. (ideal_2D_oce) to test "exotic" parameters and options.
1470    o moved adexch from forward_step to addummy_in_stepping
1471    o added exch in ctrl_map_...
1472    o aveFreq.=0. at end of cost_final to avoid overwrite in
1473      reverse checkpointing loop
1474    o Yet more changes in gmredi:
1475      * adgmredi_calc_tensor
1476        avoiding all recomputation of gmredi_slope_limit
1477      * adgmredi_x/y/rtransport
1478        added flag for excessive storing to avoid recomp. of
1479        u/v/rtans, dTdx/y/z
1480        -> this is not really necessary and very memory-consuming
1481      * adgmredi_slope_psi:
1482        consistency with gmredi_slope_limit in treatment of GM_slopeSqCutoff
1483      * gmredi_slope_limit
1484        re-activated full calculation of taperfct for case 'ac02'
1485    o updating verification/ adjoints of carbon, global_ocean.90x40x15
1486    
1487    checkpoint47i_post
1488    o GM_EXCLUDE_() replace GM_TAPER_(): by default, all the code is compiled.
1489    o add GM_Small_Number & GM_slopeSqCutoff as run-time parameters (data.gmredi)
1490      default values = 1.D-12 & 1.D+48 (=> give same results as checkpoint47f_post)
1491    o cg2dTargetResWunit: define tolerance using deltaTmom (and not deltaTfreesurf)
1492    o gmredi: fix few bugs.
1493    
1494    checkpoint47h_post (duplicate tag for PH's c48 tag, in order to move c48)
1495    This will be a good checkpoint to plug into the ecco-branch.
1496    o few modif.'s to get latest version adjointed
1497      (mainly kick out code in ini_linear_phisurf)
1498    o modif's to run adjoint with exactConserv
1499    o case GM_BOLUS_ADVEC should be cleaned
1500      S/R gmredi_slope_psi should be cleaned
1501    o verification/carbon now has exactConserv=.TRUE.
1502    
1503    checkpoint47g_post
1504    o time-average AIM output: becomes independent from statvars time-average
1505      (can be used with #undef ALLOW_TIMEAVE) ; add new variables (e.g., RH)
1506    o After TAF bug fix:
1507      Tested adjoint of gmredi package.
1508      Tests were done with checkpoint47 rather than with latest
1509      checkpoint47f_post since the latter is broken for the adjoint
1510      verification/carbon/ contains both ADM and TLM gradient checks.
1511    Here they are, before they get changed/lost/stolen.
1512    Mostly modif.'s to fix numerical sensitivities.
1513    Gradient checks OK for
1514    - GM_taper_scheme:
1515      * clipping
1516      * ac02
1517      * linear
1518      * glw91
1519      * dm95
1520      * ldd97
1521    - GMREDI_OPTIONS:
1522      * GM_VISBECK_VARIABLE_K
1523      * GM_NON_UNITY_DIAGONAL
1524      * GM_EXTRA_DIAGONAL
1525      * GM_BOLUS_ADVEC
1526    in conjunction with data.gmredi parameters to be checked in
1527    in a few minutes under verification/carbon/code/
1528    
1529    checkpoint47f_post
1530    Merging from release1_p10:
1531    o modifications for using pkg/exf with pkg/seaice
1532      - pkg/seaice CPP options SEAICE_EXTERNAL_FORCING
1533        and SEAICE_EXTERNAL_FLUXES
1534      - pkg/exf CPP options EXF_READ_EVAP and
1535        EXF_NO_BULK_COMPUTATIONS
1536      - usage examples are Experiments 8 and 9 in
1537        verification/lab_sea/README
1538      - verification/lab_sea default experiment now uses
1539        pkg/gmredi, pkg/kpp, pkg/seaice, and pkg/exf
1540    
1541    checkpoint47e_post
1542    o created a tag prior to creating a branch
1543    
1544    checkpoint47d_post
1545    o fixed bug in the oceanic pressure coordinates code: vertical viscosity
1546      at the bottom boundary had an erroneous half slip boundary condition
1547    o added bottom drag and no slip boundary condition capabilities to
1548      oceanic pressure coordinates code
1549    o added new verification experiment global_ocean_pressure, this experiment is
1550      also described in the tutorial section of the manual
1551    checkpoint47d_pre
1552    
1553    checkpoint47c_post
1554    o Added a verification experiment for a global cubed-sphere ocean run
1555      -  verification/global_ocean.cubed32x32x30
1556      -  uses pkg/therm_seaice and pkg/bulk_forcing
1557    
1558    o allow to run AIM physics with SPEEDY input files (from Franco Molteni)
1559    o allow a more accurate definition of Ro_Surf (selectFindRoSurf=1)
1560      when using P-coordinate; only implemented for atmospheric config.
1561    o OCEANICP & realFreshWater: include P-E direct effect on wVel ;
1562      NOTES: requires option NONLIN_FRSURF to be "#define".
1563    o update advect_xz/results/output.txt (left from checkpoint44g_post)
1564    
1565    checkpoint47b_post
1566    Merging from release1_p9:
1567    o pkg/seaice
1568      - removed GOTO's and added taf directives
1569      - double precision constants to reduce the g77 (Linux)
1570        to F77 (SGI) differences reported in release1_p8
1571    o tools/genmake
1572      - added SGI options
1573    o verification/testscript
1574      - updated to that of checkpoint47a_post
1575    o verification/global_ocean.90x40x15/input/eedata
1576      - modified for SGI f77 compatibility
1577    o verification/lab_sea
1578      - added description of sea-ice model
1579      - added missing matlab routines
1580      - added test of thermodynamics parallelization
1581    
1582    checkpoint47a_post
1583    o new pkg: aim_v23
1584     = F. Molteni atmos.physics (SPEEDY, ver23) adapted to MITgcm.
1585       for now, keep the same surface forcing as before.
1586     - Part-Cell implemented into AIM; check that Heat & Water are conserved
1587     - aim.5l_cs: use new aim pkg (run 10yr & get better results than before)
1588     - aim.5l_LatLon & aim.5l_Equatorial_Channel are still using old aim pkg
1589    o add diagnostic of surface correction term in monitor output
1590    
1591    o bulk_force and therm_seaice
1592    - Two packages:  bulk_force (Bulk forcing)
1593      and therm_seaice (thermodynamic_seaice) - adopted from LANL CICE.v2.0.2
1594    - Earlier integration from Stephaine Dutkiewicz
1595      and Patrick Heimbach.
1596    - Two ifdef statements for compile time,
1597       ALLOW_THERM_SEAICE and ALLOW_BULK_FORCE
1598    
1599    checkpoint47
1600    differentiable version of checkpoint46n_post
1601    o bug fix in quasihydrostaticterms
1602    o * "clean" adjoint code (in terms of extensive recomputations)
1603        can now be obtained for all GMREDI options (i.e. for
1604        - GM_VISBECK_VARIABLE_K
1605        - GM_NON_UNITY_DIAGONAL
1606        - GM_EXTRA_DIAGONAL
1607        - GM_BOLUS_ADVEC )
1608      * However, wrong gradient check problem remains unsolved.
1609      * New CPP options have been introduced for different
1610        tapering schemes
1611    o external_fields_load now part of differentiation list
1612    o pressure needs multiple storing;
1613      would be nice to have store_pressure at beginning or
1614      end of forward_step, e.g. by having phiHyd global (5-dim.)
1615      (NB: pressure is needed for certain cases in find_rho,
1616      which is also invoked through convective_adjustment).
1617    o recomputations in find_rho for cases
1618     'JMD95'/'UNESCO' or 'MDJWF' are OK.
1619    o #define ATMOSPHERIC_LOADING should be differentiable
1620    o ini_forcing shifted to begining of initialise_varia
1621    o Incorporating QNVS line search routines into MITgcm
1622      (this is separate code, and therefore not under pkg)
1623      lsopt/, optim/
1624    o Updated verification/carbon/
1625      - #define GM_VISBECK_VARIABLE_K
1626      - GM_taper_scheme    = 'ldd97'    
1627    
1628    checkpoint46n_post
1629    Merging from release1_p8:
1630    o verification/natl_box:
1631      updating new external_fields_load routine
1632    o New package: pkg/seaice
1633      Sea ice model by D. Menemenlis (JPL) and Jinlun Zhang (Seattle).
1634      The sea-ice code is based on Hibler (1979-1980).
1635      Two sea-ice dynamic solvers, ADI and LSR, are included.
1636      In addition to computing prognostic sea-ice variables and diagnosing
1637      the forcing/external data fields that drive the ocean model,
1638      SEAICE_MODEL also sets theta to the freezing point under sea-ice.
1639      The implied surface heat flux is then stored in variable
1640      surfaceTendencyTice, which is needed by KPP package (kpp_calc.F and
1641      kpp_transport_t.F) to diagnose surface buoyancy fluxes and for the
1642      non-local transport term.  Because this call precedes model
1643      thermodynamics, temperature under sea-ice may not be "exactly" at
1644      the freezing point by the time theta is dumped or time-averaged.
1645      N.B.: fairly large differences in accuracy occur across
1646            different platforms/compilers; comparison between
1647            g77 (Linux) and F77 (SGI Origin 2000/MIPSpro)
1648            generated output gives:
1649       T           S           U           V
1650      C D M    c        m  s        m  s        m  s        m  s
1651      n p a R  g  m  m  e  .  m  m  e  .  m  m  e  .  m  m  e  .
1652      f n k u  2  i  a  a  d  i  a  a  d  i  a  a  d  i  a  a  d
1653      g d e n  d  n  x  n  .  n  x  n  .  n  x  n  .  n  x  n  .
1654    
1655      Y Y Y Y  5  5  7  7  7  8 10  9  6  6  6  6  7  5  7  5  7 FAIL  lab_sea
1656    o GAD:
1657      - generated new common blocks to account for call of
1658        same gad routines with differing traceridentities
1659        (needed to modify tracerIdentity indices in GAD.h)
1660      - generated separate common blocks for case useCubedSphereExchange
1661        (Department of Futurology)
1662      - parameter lists to gmredi_?transport: added tracerIdentity
1663      - added new key indices to tamc.h
1664    o external_fields_load:
1665      - added this routine to TAF list
1666      - needed to make some common blocks global and additional storing
1667        along the same lines as exf package (checkpoint_lev?_directives.h)
1668    o exf:
1669      updated external forcing package
1670      - bug fixes carried over from ecco-branch
1671        (missing OBCS_OPTIONS.h in two routines)
1672      - enable easy to use "no forcing".
1673      - added exf I/O for atmospheric loading
1674      - added exf I/O for runoff data
1675      - transfered scaling between exf <-> MITgcm to exf namelist
1676    o Adding new verification experiment global_with_exf.
1677      This verification experiment is almost identical to the
1678      global_ocean.90x40x15 experiment, except that it uses
1679      the exf (and cal) package instead of the
1680      external_fields_load routine (cf README file).
1681    
1682    checkpoint46m_post
1683    o modified testscript to return -- when there are no lines of "%MON" output
1684    o added new flag "quasiHydrostatic" for QH mode
1685      and new routine quasihydrostaticterms()
1686    o added 2*Omega*Cos(phi)*W to u equations (non-hydrostatic Coriolis term)
1687      New routine: mom_u_coriolis_nh()
1688    o fixed sign of non-hydrostatic metric terms in u and v equations.
1689      Depend on correct sign of gravitySign.
1690    o added work.pc* to .cvsignore in aim directories using ifc
1691    o introduced flag for controllin non-hydrostatic metric terms
1692    o removed gravitySign from PARM04
1693    o switched to g77/ifc from pgf77 in aim experiments
1694    
1695    checkpoint46l_post
1696    o made convective adjustment work with pressure coordinates:
1697     - changed the direction of k-loop in convective_adjustment.F for the
1698       case of pressure coordinates (OCEANICP,ATMOSPHERIC buoyancyRelation)
1699     - adjusted the reference pressure k-index in convective_adjustment.F
1700     - adjusted the convection condition in convect.F (in analogy to
1701       calc_ivdc.F)
1702     - convective_adjustment no longer computes anything on the halos
1703     - removed the warnings about negative salinity from find_rho.F and
1704       find_alpha.F; instead the new routine look_for_neg_salinity, called
1705       at the beginning of find_rho, find_alpha, and find_beta, does a
1706       check of the entire slice, if CPP-option
1707       CHECK_SALINITY_FOR_NEGATIVE_VALUES is defined
1708    checkpoint46l_pre
1709    
1710    checkpoint46k_post
1711    o fixed the verification/global_ocean.90x40x15 experiment:
1712     - new bathymetry (the world according to A., JMC, and M.)
1713     - new initial fields and forcing fields (*.bin files)
1714     - new POLY3.COEFFS (for the next release one should switch to a full
1715       equation of state: JMD95P or MDJWF)
1716     - fixed several errors and redundancies in the data file
1717     - experiment uses looped cells
1718     - added matlab directory with diagnostic scripts for plotting of output
1719    
1720    o S/R aim_initialise.F replace S/R aim_init from file aim_do_inphys.F:
1721     - read AIM physics parameters from a file (data.aimphys)
1722     - set defaults values = F.Molteni paper (Clim.Dyn., 2002)
1723    
1724    checkpoint46j_post
1725    o split calc_exact_eta in 2 S/R : integr_continuity & update_etaH
1726    o move wVel computation at the end of the time step, in S/R integr_continuity
1727    o create specific S/R to exchange T,S before DYNAMICS (for stagger time step)
1728    o update timeave pkg for wVel diagnostic.
1729    checkpoint46j_pre
1730    
1731    checkpoint46i_post
1732    o Clean up AIM package (and keep the results unchanged):
1733      include CPP_OPTION and use IMPLICT NONE in all routines ;
1734      declare all the variables _RL ; use _d 0 for all numerical constants.
1735      use ifdef ALLOW_AIM everywhere. And now AIM can be used with g77 !
1736    
1737    checkpoint46h_post
1738    o cleaned up the use of rhoNil and rhoConst.
1739      - rhoNil should only appear in the LINEAR equation of state, everywhere
1740        else rhoNil is replaced by rhoConst, e.g. find_rho computes rho-rhoConst
1741        and the dynamical equations are all divided by rhoConst
1742    o introduced new parameter rhoConstFresh, a reference density of fresh
1743      water, to remove the fresh water flux's dependence on rhoNil. The default
1744      value is 999.8 kg/m^3
1745    o cleanup up external_forcing.F and external_forcing_surf.F
1746      - can now be used by both OCEANIC and OCEANICP
1747    checkpoint46h_pre
1748    
1749     Added code to convert surface volume flux (fresh water) into
1750     a mass flux when using P coordinates in the ocean (OCEANICP).
1751     Note: It assumes you have set rho0=rhoConst=density of fresh water.
1752    
1753    checkpoint46g_post
1754    o Include a new diagnostic variable phiHydLow for the ocean model
1755      - in z-coordinates, it is the bottom pressure anomaly
1756      - in p-coordinates, it is the sea surface elevation
1757      - in both cases, these variable have global drift, reflecting the mass
1758        drift in z-coordinates and the volume drift in p-coordinates
1759      - included time averaging for phiHydLow, be aware of the drift!
1760    o depth-dependent computation of Bo_surf for pressure coordinates
1761      in the ocean (buoyancyRelation='OCEANICP')
1762      - requires a new routine (FIND_RHO_SCALAR) to compute density with only
1763        Theta, Salinity, and Pressure in the parameter list. This routine is
1764        presently contained in find_rho.F. This routine does not give the
1765        correct density for 'POLY3', which would be a z-dependent reference
1766        density.
1767    o cleaned up find_rho
1768      - removed obsolete 'eqn' from the parameter list.
1769    o added two new verification experiments: gop and goz
1770      (4x4 degree global ocean, 15 layers in pressure and height coordinates)
1771    checkpoint46g_pre
1772    
1773    checkpoint46f_post
1774    o Enable tangent linear (forward mode) gradient checks:
1775      - extended active file handling to g_... files
1776      - added TANGENT_SIMULATION to theSimulationMode
1777      - extended grdchk package accordingly
1778    o added tangent linear setup in verification/carbon/code_ftl
1779    o added adjoint setup in verification/front_relax/code_ad
1780    
1781    checkpoint46e_post
1782    o Added new equation of state -> MDJWF
1783      - EOS of McDougall et al., 2002, JAOT, submitted
1784      - caveat: the equation of state is only valid for a smaller (more
1785        realistic?) range of values than JMD95P/Z and UNESCO
1786      - added masks to the calculation of pressure in store_pressure
1787      - added more check values for density in check_eos (ini_eos.F), some of
1788        the old check values are out of the range of the MDJWF-eos, so don't
1789        expect perfect matches for those
1790    checkpoint46e_pre
1791    
1792    checkpoint46d_post
1793    o fixed store_pressure to work with both buoyancy relation = 'OCEANIC' and
1794      'OCEANICP', also initialised field pressure correctly in ini_eos in the
1795      case of pressure coordinates. eosType='JMD95Z' in
1796      combination with buoyancyRelation='OCEANICP' now causes an error.
1797    o Changed p = pressure(i,j,k,bi,bj)  to  p = pressure(i,j,kRef,bi,bj)
1798      in find_alpha/beta.
1799    checkpoint46d_pre
1800    
1801    o Changed p = pressure(i,j,k,bi,bj)  to  p = pressure(i,j,kRef,bi,bj)
1802      so that JMD95Z and JMD95P give approptiate static stability in find_rho.
1803    
1804    checkpoint46c_post
1805    o Changes necessary for ocean in p-coordinates
1806     -  Added new buoyancy relation = 'OCEANICP'
1807     -  Added new parameters = gravitySign (this used to be contained inside
1808        the factor dRdZ which I added when we first switched to R coordinates).
1809     X GM/Redi is not compatible (yet)
1810     X bottom drag and no-slip need to be debugged.
1811    checkpoint46c_pre
1812    
1813    checkpoint46b_post
1814    o Added new equation of state -> JMD95Z and JMD95P
1815      - EOS of Jackett and McDougall, 1995, JAOT
1816      - moved all EOS parameters into EOS.h
1817      - new routines ini_eos.F, store_pressure.F
1818    o Added UNESCO EOS, but not recommended because it requires
1819      in-situ temperature (see JMD95)
1820    o Modified formatting for knudsen2.f in utils/knudsen2 and added
1821      unesco.f to be used with POLY3
1822    checkpoint46b_pre
1823    
1824    checkpoint46a_post
1825    o Added (atmospheric) pressure loading
1826      - new field in FFIELDS.h, etc...
1827      - new cpp flag ATMOSPHERIC_LOADING
1828    o Changed hFacC to _hFacC in calc_phi_hyd.F
1829    o Added SHORTWAVE_HEATING to some files for consistency
1830    checkpoint46a_pre
1831    
1832    checkpoint46
1833    further merges from release1_p5
1834    o new ctrl package
1835      - adopted from ECCO environment to enable optimization
1836      - added Eliassen Palm fluxes to controls
1837    o added Eliassen Palm flux controls to gradient check package
1838    o cost package
1839      - Compatible with new ctrl package
1840      - added Eliassen Palm cost hooks
1841      - modif's of existing cost functions
1842    o Adjoint-related bug fixes in kpp:
1843      - kpp_calc: sore of kpphbl avoids recomputation/call to S/R kppmix
1844      - kpp_routines: store of Rib avoids partial recomputation bug of TAF.
1845    o autodiff package
1846      - flow directives:
1847        + new for S/R do_the_model_io
1848        + enhanced for S/R checkpoint
1849        + new gmredi.flow
1850      - Introduced CPP option ALLOW_AUTODIFF_MONITOR to
1851        disable adcommon.h/g_common.h by default.
1852      - fixed problem for adjoint of global_max
1853    o modified verification/carbon/
1854    o New setup for adjoint of global_ocean
1855    o added hooks for Eliassen Palm fluxes (dynamics.F, ini_fields.F)
1856    o cleaned TAF keys iikey, idkey (dynamics.F, thermodynamics.F)
1857    o incorporated hooks for sponge layer code (external_forcing.F)
1858    
1859    checkpoint45d_post
1860    o import 2 fixes from release1_p5 (CG2D.h & packages_readparms.F)
1861    o use recip_dx*,recip_dy* instead of /dx*,/dy* in orlanski_E,W,N,S
1862      (affects plume_on_slope "cg2d" output)
1863    o add new parameter deltaTfreesurf for free-surface time stepping
1864    o exchange gT,gS when using staggerTimeStep & GM & Oly<4
1865    o NONLIN_FRSURF: rescale gNm1 to get a better conservation with A-B
1866    o change phiMin in exp1 (to agree with documentation)
1867    o add new flags:
1868     - T,S forcing inside/outside Adams-Bashforth
1869     - turn off temp,salt advection and/or forcing
1870     - for each tracer, define internal flag for multiDimAdvection & A-B
1871    o monitor: change definition of KE to check conservation of Energy
1872    
1873    checkpoint45c_post
1874    o Removed f90 comments ("!")
1875    o Modified initialisations to enable exf package for MITgcm
1876      (without invoking ECCO_PACKAGE).
1877    o modifications to gradient check package (Martin Losch)
1878      - enable centered differences
1879      - modified format of standard output
1880    
1881    checkpoint45b_post
1882    o cleaned exchange calls in cg2d
1883    o Included CPP option ALLOW_AUTODIFF_MONITOR in forward_step
1884    o included CPP option SINGLE_LAYER_MODE in thermodynamics
1885      to configure barotropic setup (Martin Losch)
1886    o moved some initialisations within bi,bj loop in dynamics
1887      (TAF flow dependency)
1888    o in initialise_varia, moved call packages_init_variables
1889      before convective_adjustment_init
1890      (corresponding adjustment of TAF tape initialisation).
1891    o in calc_diffusivity/calc_viscosity extended domain to full overlap.
1892    
1893    checkpoint45a_post
1894    o compute Rho over the whole domain (extend iMin,jMin indices)
1895    o specific exchange for X-slice domain (case Ny=1)
1896    o argument futureIter of S/R obcs_calc missing in exp4 & internal_wave /code
1897    o solve_for_pressure : set cg2d_x to zero where OBCS are applied
1898    
1899    checkpoint44h_post = checkpoint45
1900    o Fix to restore differentiability:
1901      place at which packages_init_variables is called in
1902      initialise_varia is crucial for reverse control flow.
1903    o modifications in GMRedi to enable stable adjoint
1904      (corresponding modif's in thermodynamics, dynamics)
1905    o added missing hook for sponge layer code in external_forcing
1906    o modified test cost functions
1907    o storing in gad_advection (plus removal of write(0,*)!
1908    o missing headers TR1.h added in convective_adjustment routines
1909    o errorMessageUnit set non-equal zero in eeboot
1910      (conflict on some platforms, e.g. IBM SP3)
1911    o modified carbon verif.
1912    
1913    checkpoint44h_pre
1914    o vertical grid option: allow to put the Interface at the middle between
1915      2 cell-centers ; replace delZ in pkg/kpp by drF.
1916    o GM Advective form: Tracers are advected using the residual transport (=
1917      Euler+GM-bolus); set param GM_AdvSeparate=T to return to previous form.
1918    
1919    checkpoint44g_post
1920    o fix surface correction term in multiDimAdvection (affects plume_on_slope
1921      results) ; ifdef missing in thermodynamics.F
1922    
1923    checkpoint44f_pre,checkpoint44f_post
1924    o added PTRACERS package
1925      This allows an arbitrary number of passive tracers to be integrated
1926      forward simultaneously with the dynamicaly model.
1927      + Implemented so far:
1928        - basic forward algorithm (time-stepping, advection, diffusion, convection)
1929        - I/O and checkpointing
1930        - GM/Redi  *but*  using the GM/Redi coefficient of Salt
1931      + Not implemented so far:
1932        - KPP
1933        - OBCS
1934      + No specific example supplied (yet) but global_ocean.90x40x15 has the
1935        necessary data.ptracer file. Simply use -enable=ptracers and uncomment
1936        line in data.pkg.
1937      + This package is disabled by default since it increases storage.
1938    
1939    
1940    o testscript: added -cleanup option
1941    o Shap_filt: a) new shap_filt S/R to use no-slip BC with S2 filter
1942                 b) enable to filter 2D fields.
1943    
1944    checkpoint44e_pre,post
1945    o re-wrote convective adjustment to use pre-calculated weights
1946      Affects: model/src/convective_adjustment.F, convective_adjustment_ini.F
1947      Adds:    model/src/convective_weights.F, convectively_mixtracer.F
1948      Original calls to convect() still in place.
1949    
1950    chkpt44d_pre,post
1951    o added missing EXCLUDE_MONITOR flags
1952    o changed "e" to "_d" in gmredi_slope_limit, gmredi_slope_psi
1953      (incompatible typ in MIN/MAX expressions caused problems
1954      on IBM SP3)
1955    o in genmake added variable MAKEDEPEND
1956      plus resetting for case SunOS
