5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    checkpoint59j
8    o in pkgs: dic, obcs, offline, rbcs:
9      standard way to compute coeff. for time interpolation between 2 time reccords
10      which retains full precision (& make results less dependent on compiler).
11      update output of exp: tutorial_cfc_offline & tutorial_global_oce_biogeo.
12    o pkg/cfc: if compiled with exf and seaice, cfc now can use fields from those
13      packages instead of reading ice cover and wind speed separately
14    o split PTRACERS.h in 2 header files: PTRACERS_FIELDS.h & PTRACERS_PARAMS.h
15     (keep a temporary version of PTRACERS.h in verification/OpenAD/code_ad_openad
16      to allow to compile customized code before the update)
17    o cleaning-up:
18      - fix CPP instruction syntax in pkg/obcs
19      - replace (some) call to MDSIO S/R with call to RW interface S/R ; and
20        add #ifdef ALLOW_MDSIO elsewhere (allows to compile without pkg/mdsio)
21      - fix some threads issue in IO parts.
22    o pkg/dic:
23      - add tons of "_d 0" (--> much better testreports !)
24       and then update outputs of tutorial_global_oce_biogeo
25    o pkg/mom_fluxform:
26      add a special version of momentum advection intended to conserve momentum
27      next to a bathymetry step or a coastline edge. (default = off = #undef)
28    o new read/write pickup version:
29      - for now, only implemented for main (mdsio) pickup file.
30      - write out only what is needed to restart; merge pickup_nh , pickup_ph
31        and main pickup together.
32      - read meta file; read only what is needed to restart; stop if a field
33        is missing (if pickupStrictlyMatch=T, = the default) or try to restart
34        if it make sense (even if the restart is not perfect).
35      - if no meta file, assume that pickup to read corresponds exactly to
36        a pickup that would currently be written.
37      - read pickup written in the old format (until checkpoint59i) if it
38        recognizes an old meta file (no field-list).
39      - add a meta file in exp. which starts from a pickup: 2 cases:
40        a) minimal meta file (with just file precision) + pickupStrictlyMatch=F
41         e.g.: global_ocean.90x40x15/input/pickup.0000036000.meta
42        b) a meta file describing the content of the associated pickup file
43         e.g.: tutorial_global_oce_biogeo/input/pickup.0004248000.meta
44    o pkg/mdsio & pkg/rw:
45      - new routine to read a meta file ; new set of routine to read
46        Multiple-fields file (with meta file).
47    o added open boundary conditions capability for seaice
48        HSNOW, HSALT, UICE, and VICE
49    
50    checkpoint59i
51    o adjoint:
52      * fix multiDimAdvection adjoint
53        (partial recomputation problem by TAF for fVerT(:,:,kDown)
54        and comlev1 size definition (maxpass vs. max. number of tracers)
55      * verification/global_ocean.90x45x15 adjoint now tests
56        NLFS and multiDimAdvection using DST3 (=30)
57      * verification/lab_sea now tests multiDimAdvection using DST3 (=30)
58    o pkg/kpp: add "_d 0" to real constant (if missing);
59      update output of exp: natl_box (10.digits); vermix (std, 7.digits)
60      and lab_sea, 3.FW (only 6,4,6 digits match) & AD (8.digits).
61    o prepare for "clever pickup" implementation: add new header file "RESTART.h"
62      for internal parameters related to restart process (formerly from PARAMS.h)
63      and add startAB parameter to argument list of S/R ADAMS_BASHFORTH2.
64    o more standard interface to {PKG}_WRITE_PICKUP with pickup suffix passed
65      as argument. (only atm2d & obcs write_pickup have not yet been updated)
66    o pkg/monitor:
67      - use GLOBAL_SUM_TILE instead of _GLOBAL_SUM
68      - fix mon_stats_rs (statistics over the full domain, even where field is zero)
69      - account for deep Atmosphere factor and density factor (anelastic)
70    o added open boundary conditions capability for seaice HEFF and AREA
71    o pkg/shelfice: add option for convservative form of Hellmer&Olbers (1989)
72      thermodynamics
73      - requires a little reorganization, which affects the testreport results
74        of isomip.htd (only 7 digits of cg2d agree) => update/modify experiment,
75        so that now the conservative form is tested
76      - add a few comments
77    o add missing cvs Header: or Name: in eesupp/*, pkg/* & verification/code*
78    o add a little bit of code to gad_os7mp_adv_?.F to help vectorization
79    o add new diagnostics to seaice: advective, diffusive fluxes (only for
80      multidim-advection, for scheme 2 they are not filled) and transports,
81      thermodynamic growth rates
82    o change units of EmPmR (inside the code, + within coupling interface)
83      from m/s to kg/m2/s (mass flux) but leave input file unchanged.
84      Affects results @ truncation level (cg2d match) and update output of
85       experiments: lab_sea(6), global_ocean.90x40x15(10),
86      global_ocean.cs32x15(11x3,10), natl_box(11), tutorial_global_oce_latlon(11)
87      + adjoint results: global_ocean_ebm(11) and lab_sea (12).
88      Coupled set-up: allow to restart from previous pickups (cpl_oldPickup=T).
89      Next: will retire convertEmP2rUnit (simply using mass2rUnit instead).
90    
91    checkpoint59h
92    o pkg/exf:
93      - improve vectorization by moving if-statement out of loops in
94        exf_mapfields, exf_radiation
95      - exf_bulkformulae.F: introduce 2D fields and vectorize code
96    o pkg/kpp: added the salt plume scheme (ALLOW_SALT_PLUME) to KPP package
97    o testreport:
98      - allow to test for Qnet & SeaIce monitor output; clean-up ALLOW_BULK_OFFLINE
99        monitor & update offline_exf_seaice exp. output.
100      - AD testing: pass/FAIL according to Grad. output accuracy (instead of Cost)
101    o pkg/seaice:
102      - bug fix in the evp solver: boundary conditions were affected be
103        masking of zMax/zMin (changes results)
104      - minor bug fix in boundary conditions in seaice_calc_strainrates
105        (changes results for no_slip)
106      - seaice_lsr.F: make interpolation of eta dependent on boundaries
107      - replace hardcoded lower limit for zeta (zMin) by runtime parameter
108      - add a test to lab_sea, that tests the Hibler and Bryan (1987) ocean
109        stress formulation and no-slip boundary conditions
110    o pkg/ptracers: Temporary fix for PTRACERS_useGMRedi & PTRACERS_useKPP
111      in gad_calc_rhs.F ; add few safety stops in initialisation phase.
112    o pkg/seaice: a first HSALT time stepping equation has been checked in
113    o pkg/seaice: replaced maskW with seaiceMaskU and maskS with seaiceMaskV
114      in seaice_lsr.F; this solves the pkg/seaice-pkg/obcs problem
115      without requiring DO-IF statements
116    o pkg/thsice:
117      use continuous power-law function for partition of energy between lateral
118      melting/freezing and thinning/thickening ; old code using step function
119      still available with #undef THSICE_FRACEN_POWERLAW
120      update output of exp: aim.5l_cs.thSI, global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn & .thsice
121    o testreport: change AD testing : check against results/output_adm.txt
122      using same scripts as for forward test.
123    
124    checkpoint59g
125    o adjoint testing: in preparation for changing testreport:
126      - output format: cost and grad written on separated lines
127      - ad output results in directory "results" (instead of "results_ad")
128    o pkg/seaice: adding ice salinity HSALT as a prognostic variable
129    o pkg/seaice: changes for using pkg/seaice with pkg/obcs
130    o pkg/ecco: allow user defined cost function contributions
131    o testreport:
132      Allow to choose (per experiment) the list of tested output variables
133       and the main variable (used to issue a pass/FAIL ) ;
134      - for now, done by adding the specific list in file: [exp]/input/tr_checklist
135      - default is unchanged: >cg2d< , (T,S,U,V,5 tracers)_[min,max,mean,StD] ;
136      Also modify printing of summary:
137       a) ">" NN "<" indicates the "main" variable (used for pass/FAIL)
138       b) echo the list of tested variables in the individual summary.txt of
139          each experiment.
140    o new S/R GLOBAL_SUM_TILE to compute global sum independently of number of
141      threads and number of processes (with #define GLOBAL_SUM_SEND_RECV)
142      (but still depend on the tile decompostion of the domain).
143    o pkg/seaice: change a discretization detail to make the B-grid code
144      "more symmetric". This change is likely to remove all "ridges/leads" that
145      where quasi-aligned with the grid in B-grid solutions. It may also be
146      the solution to the stress coupling issues with the B-grid.
147    o each tested exp: add a "run" directory with a standard ".cvsignore" file ;
148      remove .cvsignore from input dir. (since testreport no longer run here).
149    o pkg/thsice:
150     - cleaning: move common block out of "THSICE_2DYN.h" (removed) to "THSICE_VARS.h"
151     - fix reshaping of sea-ice just after advection:
152       melt all the ice only if ice-volume is too small.
153     - re-visit lateral/thinning repartition of melting (modifs from May 04, 2007):
154       prevent lateral melting if sea-ice fraction is too close to iceMaskMin ;
155     and update experiment global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn (+start from pickup files).
156    o external_forcing_surf : extend the use of salt_EvPrRn & temp_EvPrRn (fresh-water
157      tracer content) to linFS or no RealFreshWaterFlux ; default remains unchanged.
158    o define mass2rUnit & rUnit2mass as units conversion factor, used for surface
159      forcing. mass2rUnit: from mass per unit area [kg/m2] to r-coordinate unit
160      (z-coord: =1/rhoConst ; p-coord: =gravity) ; rUnit2mass is just the reverse;
161      and remove horiVertRatio (& recip_horiVertRatio). Affects truncation error
162      of exp. global_oce_in_p: 10 16 16 14 16 13 16 16 16 13 13 13 16 13 13 12 16
163      -> update output.txt
164    o pkg/cd_code: add brackets in multiple terms sum (S/R CD_CODE_SCHEME):
165     this affects truncation error: -> update output.txt of exp:
166      global_ocean.90x40x15 (fw&adm), lab_sea (fw&adm) & lab_sea.lsr,
167      ideal_2D_oce, isomip.htd, natl_box, tutorial_global_oce_latlon.
168    
169    checkpoint59f
170    o pkg/autodiff: zero_adj resets an ajoint variable to zero (in adjoint mode)
171    o pkg/ctrl: ctrl_bound  forces parameter corrections to stay in
172      a bounded range (in forward mode)
173    o pkg/ecco, ctrl, autodiff and mom_common:
174     internal parameter controls, completements of implementations
175    o add few EXCH S/R (UV_BGRID, UV_DGRID, SM) for B & D-Grid velocity & 2nd Moment Sxy.
176    o use UV_BGRID exch for dxV,dyU: for now, only with pkg/exch2 & forward ;
177      (not seem any difference in testing results).
178    o pkg/cd_code: use the right EXCH calls (for CS-grid); but problem remains
179       at face corners.
180    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
181     - in GAD.h, define as parameters (iMinAdvR,iMaxAdvR,jMinAdvR,jMaxAdvR)
182      loop range indices for computing vertical advection tendency
183      and do the calculation in the interior only (no overlap) ;
184      for now, only implemented for SOM advection (to save CPU time).
185     - add argument "withSigns" to S/R FILL_CS_CORNER_TR_RL (needed for SOM_xy moment)
186    o exch2 adjoint
187      First set of changes:
188      - add exch2 hand-written adjoint templates
189      - exch2 hand-written no longer use TAF-flag 'nownew_arg'
190        This will require cleanup in pkg/autodiff/*.F
191        (changed routines currently kept separate in verif. code/)
192      - Comment all relevant #ifndef ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC
193        that used to hide exch2 or cubed-sphere specific code
194        (commented via 'cph-exch2')
195    o pkg/seaice
196      - Close southern and western boundaries for UICE/VICE when useOBCS=.TRUE.
197    o pkg/bulk_force: fix loading into Qsw of Short-Wave flux; and update
198       output of global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice .
199    
200    checkpoint59e
201    o exch2: new S/R that only use the cube-tracer (center-position) exchange:
202      for B-grid vector (not yet tested) and C-grid vector (<- only used
203      when option W2_USE_R1_ONLY in W2_OPTIONS.h is defined).
204    o starting implementation of Duffy et al. (GRL 1999) salt plume scheme
205      (#ifdef ALLOW_SALT_PLUME)
206    o gather_2d/scatter_2d: removed halo regions
207    o gmredi: add option (GM_taper_scheme='fm07') for Ferrari & McWilliams 2007
208      scheme and the corresponding test case (under front_relax dir). For now,
209      only available with Skew-flux form and not yet tested in realistic set-up.
210      adjoint: store directives updated, but gradient checks deteriorated,
211      so maybe GM/Redi adjoint is now broken.
212    o seaice adjoint
213      * add AREA, HEFF, HSNOW as control variable
214        (should not change lab_sea results)
215      * CTRL_OPTIONS.h needs new flag: CTRL_SET_OLD_MAXCVARS_40
216    o pkg/seaice:
217      * added computation of saltFlux in seaice_growth;
218        For time being, sea ice salinity is assumed constant
219        contribution of snow flooding to freshening of sea ice is neglected.
220        SEAICE_salinity is set in SEAICE_PARM01 of data.seaice and it
221        defaults to 0.0 in order to maintain backward compatibility.
222        Typical values for SEAICE_salinity are 4 to 10 g/kg.
223      * replaced dRf(1) with dRf(kSurface)*hFacC(kSurface) in seaice_growth.F
224      * added SEAICE_availHeatFrac, which specifies fraction of surface level
225        heat content used to melt or grow ice
226      * commented out cap of HICE: it helps keep ice thinner
227      * reintroduced cap of HEFF via MAX_HEFF and SEAICE_CAP_HEFF option
228      * applied OBCS T/S mask to HEFFM sea ice mask
229    
230    checkpoint59d
231    o standard name: {PKG}_DIAGNOSTICS_STATE to fill diagnostics array
232     for {PKG} state variables, and called from DO_STATEVARS_DIAGS.
233     (keep {PKG}_DIAGNOSTICS_FILL for non-state variables diagnostics)
234    o pkg/gmredi (gmredi_readparms.F): add some missing "_d 0"
235     and change default value of parameter "GM_Small_Number";
236     update output of exp: lab_sea (x2), cfc_example, global_ocean.90x40x15,
237       global_ocean.cs32x15 (x4), global_ocean_ebm, global_with_exf,  
238       tutorial_global_oce_biogeo, tutorial_global_oce_latlon
239    o pkg/ecco: cost function when applying pkg/smooth to controls
240    o pkg/ctrl: add forcingPrecond run time parameter
241    o pkg/seaice:
242     - replace ZMIN=4.e8 with ZMIN=0. in dynsolver.F as in C-grid code
243     - fix bug in metric terms of u-equation in LSR solver (implicit part),
244       changes verification/lab_sea
245     - rearrange implicit part of u-equation in LSR solver to make it easier to
246       read, understand, and debug. This causes changes at the truncation level.
247     - fix (serious) bug in the boundary conditions (sign error in the implicit
248       part) of the LSR solver. Changes all LSR results.
249     - fixed problem with HSNOW initialization to avoid thick snow when AREA
250       is initilized with small values - does not change lab_sea results.
251     - added HsnowFile initialization capability
252    o pkg/smooth: addition to model/src and pkg/ctrl so allow
253     initialization of pkg/smooth and application to control vector
254    o pkg/seaice: fix another bug in the LSR no-slip boundary conditons
255    o dependencies: pkg/profiles requires pkg/cal
256    o pkg/profiles:
257     - added option ALLOW_PROFILES_GENERICGRID
258         -> pkg/profiles can thus be used with any grid (e.g. cs32x15) assuming
259         that interpolation information (grid points and coefficients) is provided
260         within the netcdf input files.
261         -> sample matlab scripts can be found in MITgcm_contrib/gael
262         that allow you to prepare netcdf input files.
263     - also modified: cleaner include statements, cleaner error print statements,
264       cleaner stops when error, and more tests of the netcdf input files consistency.
265    o additional test (in global_ocean.cs32x15) using seaice+thsice pkgs.
266    o pkg/seaice:
267     - move seaice-diagnostics from seaice_do_diags to do_statevars_diags; this
268       requires a new routine: seaice_diagnostics_fill.F
269     - make sure that seaice does not move if not forced (pressure replacement
270       method, Hibler and Ip, 1995), changes results
271     - and new damping criterion for EVP solver according to Hunke, JCP, 2001
272     - SEAICE_evpDampC = > 0. turns it on (615. is the recommended value).
273       It is turned off by default (=-1.), because it changes the results.
274     - make it possible to read AREA from a file, too.
275    
276    checkpoint59c
277    o add S/R and diagnostics for oceanic mixed-layer depth
278    o move GMRedi call after all vertical mixing schemes (including KPP)
279    o pkg/thsice:
280     - ensure iceMask > iceMaskMin : this problem appeared after May-04 modifs
281      (melt only laterally if thin ice): update output of global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice
282    o pkg/obcs:
283     - bug fix for balance code
284    o pkg/seaice:
285      - allow values of SEAICE_elasticParm > 1
286      - add new parameter SEAICE_evpTauRelax as an alternative
287        to SEAICE_elasticParm
288      - make lsr boundary conditions free slip (by default), changes result
289      - add code for no slip boundary conditions for lsr
290      - set minimum of zeta to zero (and not 4e8) (changes results)
291      - add a cap on AREA after advecting AREA if seaice_growth is not called
292    o change calculation of Visbeck K:
293      - no longer depend on tapering scheme; instead, compute slope (limited
294        by GM_maxSlope). this is equivalent to what was comuted before with
295        clipping or linear tappering.
296      - fix vertical averaging (wrong by 1/2 level)
297      - leave the old version (but will not be maintained) within
298        #ifdef OLD_VISBECK_CALC / #endif
299      - update output of exp. ideal_2D_oce
300    o change error catch in calc_r_star to improve vectorization
301    o exf runoff and seaice: remove ALLOW_SEAICE from exf pkg files and
302      add #define ALLOW_RUNOFF in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h (when not using exf).
303    o adjoint:
304      Re-organized adjoint checkpointing according to Matt Mazloff
305      (but with modifs/completions/cleanups)
306      Storing is now bundled into large arrays to optimized I/O
307      (and second step in cleanup of the_main_loop)
308    
309    checkpoint59b
310    o coupler (pkg/atm_ocn_coupler, pkg/ocn_compon_interf, pkg/atm2d):
311      - export/import (between ocean & coupler) fields needed for ocean DIC.
312    o pkg/seaice:
313      - get rid of three more exchanges seaice_calc_viscosities (required
314        different loop boundaries in seaice_lsr and seaice_ocean_stress)
315      - bug fix in seaice_ocean_stress (update of lab_sea required)
316      - reduce loop boundaries to necessary minimum also in seaice_evp
317      - go back to the old way of computing deltaC/Z as the adjoint likes that
318        better
319    o Refresh of tutorial_global_oce_latlon (includes changing salinity-like
320      passive tracer to an Age Tracer) + update output.txt
321    o pkg/exf:
322      - implement A-grid / C-grid selection for wind-stress input files.
323      - clean-up exf_wind.F (remove us, use wspeed instead ; add wStress)
324      for now, in exf_bulk_largeyeager04.F only :
325      - change implementation for case where windspeed + 2. components wind-stress
326        are read-in. AND use rhoConstFresh to convert evap.
327    o pkg/seaice:
328      - use correct EXCH_UV for wind-forcing (on A-grid).
329      - change SEAICE_OPTIONS.h to limit the number of option combinations (regarding
330        SEAICE_EXTERNAL_FORCING & SEAICE_EXTERNAL_FLUXES); add corresponding stops.
331    o pkg/exf:
332      - default EXF options are now set in EXF_OPTIONS.h (ifndef ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC)
333      EXF_INTERPOLATION:
334      - merge global_with_exf/code version of exf_interp_read.F
335        to the main code ;
336      - Add new option: EXF_INTERP_USE_DYNALLOC to use Dynamical Allocation when
337        reading the file ; Important: This options needs to be defined to recover
338        previous code.
339        otherwise, use fixed size array to read in (size=exf_interp_bufferSize).
340      - no longer loose real*8 precision along the way when using exf_iprec=64.
341    o pkg/seaice: rearrangement of common blocks (really needs more cleaning up)
342      - change discretisation of evp-solver in order to avoid another exchange
343        (changes lab_sea) and clean up a little
344      - replace SQRT(MAX(deltaC,SEAICE_EPS)) by MAX(SQRT(deltaC),SEAICE_EPS)
345        help the adjoint (this also changes the results slightly)
346      - add a few "_d 0" where they had been missing in seaice_evp.F
347      - cleaning up: remove unused seaice_calc_rhs.F
348    o pkg/exf: some cleaning-up:
349      - change various "constants" into runtime parameters
350      - cleaned-up Large&Yeager04 routine which should eventually
351        replace exf_bulkformulae.F (changed names of S/R and CPP)
352        and merged various ALLOW_ATM_WIND options
353     only used with thsice pkg (in thsice_get_exf.F):
354      - implement fixed turbulent transfert Coeff over ice (as in Large&Yeager04)
355        which are used when useStabilityFct_overIce=TRUE (= the default)
356      - change default values of ice & snow emissivity and scale downward LW
357        by ice & snow emissivity.
358    o pkg/thsice:
359     fix few little problems, in thsice_calc_thickn.F:
360      - growth vertically (and not laterally) if iceFrac == iceMaskMax
361      - melt only laterally if hIce < hThinIce (as the comments say)
362      and in thsice_extend.F:
363      - allow to form ice even when iceFrac == iceMaskMax (by increasing thickness)
364      - start to form ice as soon as the minimum ice-volume is reachable.
365     update output of test-exp: aim.5l_cs(thSI), global_ocean.cs32x15(thsice),
366      and cpl_aim+ocn
367    o pkg/kpp
368     - move computation of surface related input fields to KPP into a new
369       subroutine kpp_forcing_surf.F
370     - remove wrong (within bi,bj loops) EXCH calls.
371     - little cleaning (add argument myThid in last position, cvs header ...)
372     - for now, fix conservation problem by exchanging KPPviscAz (may not
373       be the best fix)
374    o pkg/seaice
375     - check for inconsistent evp parameter/cpp-flag combination
376     - remove leftover errIO flat for obsolete name list error handling
377    o OpenAD
378     - changed verification/OpenAD to full baroclinic setup (including GM/Redi)
379    
380    checkpoint59a
381    o pkg/seaice: some parameter clarifications and a little bit of clean up
382    o pkg/thsice: rename run-time parameters:
383       himin       -> hIceMin
384       himin0      -> hThinIce
385       hihig       -> hThickIce
386       i0          -> i0swFrac
387       transCoef   -> bMeltCoef
388       frac_energy -> fracMelting
389      add new parameters: hNewIceMax, fracFreezing, dhSnowLin
390       with default values (for now) that do not change the results.
391      remove old version of thsice vars advection in pkg/seaice.
392    o in FFIELDS.h:
393      - replace #ifndef ALLOW_EXF  by #ifndef EXCLUDE_FFIELDS_LOAD
394      - make pLoad & sIceLoad always available (but still only used if
395         ATMOSPHERIC_LOADING is #define).
396    o pkg/kpp: replaced _KPP_RL with _RL
397    o bug fixes for vertical diffusivity computations when both KPP and
398        3D diffusivity arrays are used; pkg/kpp/kpp_calc_diff_s & _t.F
399        are no longer updating the vertical diffusivity array
400        (passed as argument) but are (re-) setting those arrays.
401    o pkg/seaice: fix bug in evp solver, while doing that
402      - change (improve?) discretization of stress computations for both
403        cgrid-lsr and evp solver
404      - add a new routine to compute strain rates
405      - the above changes lab_sea results
406      - add no slip conditions for evp solver (off by default), lsr-version
407        may follow
408      - fix exchange for shear at Z-points (does not change lab_sea)
409      - retire SEAICEuseEVP, instead turn on EVP by setting SEAICE_deltaTevp
410        (to force the user to pick a time step since there is not "safe" way
411        of choosing it)
412      - add principal stress diagnostics
413      - rearrange fields for evp a little to avoid having to call a: too many
414        exchanges and b: exchanges for stress trensor components which we do
415        not have.
416      - modify Hibler+Bryan (1987) stress coupling so that it reuses information
417        of evp, complete rewrite for lsr case (latter is does not yet work
418        in all cases)
419    o pkg/kpp: add code to have mixing in shelf ice caverns
420      - add myThid to all kpp routines (long overdue)
421    
422    checkpoint59
423    o pkg/exf:
424      - fix wind-stress location: defined on A-grid (if ALLOW_ATM_WIND &
425        ALLOW_BULKFORMULAE or USE_EXF_INTERPOLATION), otherwise, defined on C-grid
426      - move exf header files from lower_case.h to UPPER_CASE.h ;
427        add missing cvs Header & Name
428      - add adjoint routines and flow dirs for newly used exch_uv_agrid routines
429      - add namelist param. selectStressGridPosition, exf_monFreq
430      - retire many _CLIM routines, and remove data.exf_clim
431        + params moved to data.exf
432        + climsst, climsss now handled by exf_set_gen, i.e.
433          climss?period=0 refers to constant field,
434          climss?period=-12 to monthly forcing
435      - split up namelists in data.exf
436    o pkg/seaice:
437      - remove seaice_exch and seaice_exch_uv
438      - remove superfluous exchange of theta
439      - add myThid to seaice_budget_ocean/ice
440      - add new interface for atmospheric wind forcing (C-grid only)
441        + new routine
442        + two new field (taux, tauy for stress over ice)
443        + removed one global field (DAIRN) for C-grid case only
444    o pkg/thsise
445      - 2nd set of modifs for thsice adjoint in conjunction with exf
446    o enable runtime flag useEXF (useCAL is set to .T. if useEXF=.T.)
447    
448    checkpoint58y_post
449    o Added capability for latitudinal dependence of Bryan and Lewis, 1979
450      vertical diffusivity, similar to that in MOM4; turned on using
451      #define ALLOW_BL79_LAT_VARY in CPP_OPTIONS.h and specified using
452      diffKrBL79*, diffKrBLEQ*, and BL79LatVary in runtime data file.
453    o Added capability for 3D specification of background vertical diffusion
454      coefficient.  This is done by (i) #define ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR
455      in CPP_OPTIONS.h and (ii) specifying file diffKrFile in runtime
456      "data" file that contains the 3D vertical diffusivity coefficients.
457    o ice dynamics (pkg/seaice) with thsice thermodynamics:
458      - add code within pkg thsice to advect & diffuse sea-ice fields
459      similar to (and will replace) what has been added in  seaice_advdiff.F,
460      but: - conserving Mass, Heat & Salt.
461           - better when using non-linear advection scheme (not yet fully tested)
462           - can also be used in atmospheric set-up (for now, only the diffusion).
463    
464    checkpoint58x_post
465    o IO option for global-file compact format:
466      - add options when generating topology (utils/exch2/matlab-topology-generator)
467      - add I/O capability (pkg/mdsio).
468      - adapt utils/matlab/rdmds.m to read this format.
469      for now long-line format not yet supported by pkg/mdsio (& exch2).
470    o shelfice: add a few diagnostics
471    
472    checkpoint58w_post
473    o p-coord. non-hydrostatic using reference profile for w <-> omega conversion:
474      rVel2wUnit & wUnit2rVel are computed from reference profile Tref,Sref
475      (and replace horiVertRatio in NH code).
476      Update output of exp.: tutorial_global_oce_in_p (useNHMTerms !)
477                         and tutorial_plume_on_slope (sensitive to truncation)
478    o seaice: if ALLOW_ATM_WIND is undefined use wind stress
479      directly to drive seaice model (C-grid only)
480    o exf: when input wind-stress (#undef ALLOW_ATM_WIND):
481     - reintroduce computation of wind from stress,
482     - compute tau (in exf_bulkformulae.F) from windstress averaged to
483       mass points to avoid tau = 0
484     - fix serious bug: (1/3) in Fortran is not the same as (1./3.)
485    o rdmnc.m: make it work with "global" files created with gluemnc
486    o rdmnc.m : some improvements in dealing with singleton dimension
487      (tested on all testreport mnc output files).
488    o genmake2: disable pkg/profiles if netcdf test fails.
489    o cpl_aim+ocn exp.: use consistent rhoConstFresh in Atm & Ocn; update output.
490    o move call to cal_readparms up to make calendar parameters/variable available
491      to all packages
492    
493    checkpoint58v_post
494    o change EOS (from POLY3 to JMD95P) in global_ocean.90x45x15 to get
495      useDynP_inEos_Zc tested.
496    o pkg/exf: changes to properly interpolate/mask/scale initial fields
497    o utils/matlab/cs_grid/read_cs: routines to speed up reading of CS510 fields
498      and portions thereof.  See read_cs.txt for description and examples.
499    o utils/matlab/cs_grid/bk_line: to compute transport through passages,
500      add a script (grt_circ_bkl.m) to generate broken-line between 2 points,
501      following the great-circle arc between those 2 points.
502    o trap un-initialized variable with pathscale compiler on weddell.mit.edu
503      (thanks to Constantinos): fix few problems and get (almost) all exp to pass.
504    o 2nd-Order Moment Advection Scheme (Prather, 1986): first check-in
505     - enable by setting #define GAD_ALLOW_SOM_ADVECT (in GAD_OPTIONS.h)
506     - used without limiter (AdvScheme=80) or with Prather limiter (AdvScheme=81)
507     - still needs work (not working with some options ; efficiency to improve)
508       and serious testing.
509     - use this scheme for temperature & salinity in 2 advection test exp.:
510       advect_xy & advect_xz, respectively.
511    
512    checkpoint58u_post
513    o new test-exp: fizhi-cs-32x32x40 (40 levels) to replace the 10 levels.
514    o move call to INI_FORCING from PACKAGES_INIT_VARIABLES to INITIALISE_VARIA.
515    o testreport: add option "-skipdir" to skip some test.
516    o exf: when input wind-stress (#undef ALLOW_ATM_WIND), by-pass turbulent
517      momentum calculation.
518    o gad_advection: fix vertAdvecScheme (if different from advectionScheme)
519    o some cleaning: usePickupBeforeC35 no longer supported ; remove this option.
520      remove checkpoint.F and the_correction_step.F (no longer used);
521      do the k loop inside CYCLE_TRACER (supposed to be more efficient).
522    o add option (linFSConserveTr) to correct for tracer source/sink due to
523      Linear Free surface
524    o pkg/seaice: fix a bug in the flooding algorithm: turn off the snow machine
525    o pkg/thsice: fix reading mnc-pickups
526    
527    checkpoint58t_post
528    o pkg/diagnostics: fix multi-threaded output (when singleCpuIO=F)
529    o pkg/mdsio:
530     - clean-up mdsio_readfield.F & mdsio_writefield_new.F and
531       move to new files: mdsio_read_field.F (S/R MDS_READ_FIELD) &
532       mdsio_write_field.F (S/R MDS_WRITE_FIELD);
533     - fix multi-threaded singleCpuIO option in MDS_WRITE_FIELD
534     - collect old S/R  in one file: mdsio_rw_field.F (now just a call to
535       either MDS_READ_FIELD or MDS_WRITE_FIELD )
536     - new S/R (to replace MDSWRITEMETA), which allows to write more
537       informations (variable names, time ...) to meta files.
538     - modify rdmds.m to give back the meta file content.
539    o pkg/diagnostics: change vertical interpolation to be safer, and more
540       flexible (define p-levels to interpolate to in data.diagnostics);
541      add argument to S/R DIAGNOSTICS_GET_POINTERS to catch the right
542       diagnostic pointer.
543    o pkg/seaice: more cleaning up of seaice_growth, added many comments
544    o pkg/exf: put runoff0 and runoff1 into the appropriate common block
545    o fix multi-category seaice:
546     - change cpp flag SEAICE_MULTILEVEL to more meaningful name:
547       SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY
548     - fix short wave heat flux
549    o pkg/seaice: change default (SEAICE_OPTIONS.h): use C-grid dynamics
550       and allow to use EVP solver. Change forward lab_sea: test both EVP
551       solver and LSR solver, and use C-grid dynamics (like lab_sea adjoint)
552    o Initial check-in of lab_sea adjoint
553      (very similar to natl_box_adjoint/code_seaice)
554      * used C-grid and EVP solver
555      * used KPP, GM/Redi
556      * uses inAdExact=.TRUE.
557      * gradient checks fail for both ADM and TLM
558        due to sensitive snow melt code in seaice_grwoth (look for "JZ")
559        f.d. gradients actually seem more problematic than ADM, TLM gradients;
560        issue is related to forward mismatch between g77 an ifort
561    o pkg/seaice: overhaul of thermodynamics
562     - growth.F and groatb.F are replaced by new routine seaice_growth.F
563     - budget.F is replaced by two new routines seaice_budget_ocean/ice.F
564     - move a few global fields out of SEAICE.h into seaice_growth.F and
565       make them 2D (FICE/QNETO/ ...)
566     - remove FO (it is the same as QNETO)
567     - introduce a few local fields to avoid modifying external fields such
568       as atemp, etc.
569    
570    checkpoint58s_post
571    o pkg/exf: moved exf_init_runoff.F to exf_init.F and exf_set_gen.F
572      changed exf_set_gen.F so that
573        genperiod=0 means input file is one time-constant field and
574        genperiod=-12 means input file contains 12 monthly means
575    o CG2D: use pre-computed solver main-diagonal (stored in common block);
576      this affects truncation error ; generate new output file for exp. which
577      fails: exp4(12d), fizhi-cs-aqualev20(12d), front_relax(10d),
578        global_ocean.90x40x15(10d), global_ocean.cs32x15(10d).thsice(11d).viscA4(10d),
579        ideal_2D_oce(10d), internal_wave(09d), isomip.htd(11d), matrix_example(07d),
580        MLAdjust(4x11d,12d), natl_box(11d), rotating_tank(12d),
581        tutorial_global_oce_in_p(10d), tutorial_plume_on_slope(11d),
582        vermix(12d).ggl90(12d).my82(11d).opps(12d).pp81(11d)
583    o start implementation of deep-atmosphere and anelastic formulation
584    o verification: remove 2nd copy of input files and use script "prepare_run"
585      to make a symbolic link to the 1rst copy (reduce downloaded size by ~81.M)
586    o mom_common/vecinv/fluxform: fix a few initialisation isssues
587    o profiles: fix for multithreaded case
588    
589    o diagnostics: rename few diags:
590      s/'PRESSURE'/'RCENTER '/g
591      s/'TICE    '/'oceFreez'/g
592      s/'TAUX    '/'oceTAUX '/g
593      s/'TAUY    '/'oceTAUY '/g
594      s/'SWFLUX  '/'oceQsw  '/g
595      s/DIFx/DFxE/g
596      s/DIFy/DFyE/g
597      and add few ocean-forcing diagnostics:
598      atmPload, sIceLoad, oceQnet, oceFWflx, oceSflux, surForcT & surForcS
599    o modifications to pkg/seaice/growth.F and budget.F, which change results of
600      lab_sea experiment: HSNOW was sometimes treated as effective and sometimes
601      as actual snow thickness.  It now refers everywhere to effective snow
602      thickness, meaning that for non-zero AREA, actual thickness is HEFF/AREA.
603    
604    checkpoint58r_post
605    o modifications to pkg/seaice/growth.F, which change results of
606      lab_sea experiment: fixes pertain to melting snow over open water, to
607      masking EVAP under sea ice, and to using the correct AREA variable for
608      computations of EVAP, PRECIP, HSNOW, and GHEFF
609    o add ability to read bathy, salt, and theta using MNC (off by def)
610    o add flooding algorithm and advection of HSNOW for pkg/seaice;
611      both are turned off by default and do no change any results
612    o seaice advection with pkg/thsice: a step toward the use of non-linear
613      advection scheme, but #ifdef or commented out for now (requires more EXCH).
614    o use standard version of PTRACERS_INI_VARIA in tutorial_tracer_adjsens
615      (identical results) and the standard version of EXTERNAL_FIELDS_LOAD
616      in natl_box (affects results @ truncation level: update output.txt)
617    o multi-threading and IO:
618      - replace some call to MDSIO S/R by the corresponding READ/WRITE_FLD S/R.
619      - remove most of BEGIN_MASTER/ END_MASTER around READ/WRITE_FLD S/R calls
620        (needed to work with SingleCpuIO): tested in all verif. exp.
621    o GAD: use simpler DST3 formulation as default (old version left within #ifdef)
622      affects the results (but none of the verification test uses this scheme).
623    o Adding some pkg/diagnostics capability to pkg/seaice
624      (will certainly be subject to changes)
625    o ctrl: adding new control variables:
626      lwflux, lwdown, evap, snowprecip, apressure, runoff
627    
628    checkpoint58q_post
629    o added CPP_EEOPTIONS.h flag DISABLE_MPI_READY_TO_RECEIVE.  Speeds up
630      1/6-deg Southern Ocean configuration by 8% on IBM Datastar and
631      high_res_cube configuration by 4% on Columbia.
632    o clean-up multi-threaded problems (reported by debugger tcheck on ACES);
633      add (in global_with_exf/code) a version of EXF_INTERP_READ without
634      dynamical allocation (seems to work in multi-threaded).
635    o new function "MASTER_CPU_IO" (=T if master thread & master CPU, if using
636      single CPU io) so that TAF does not have to see EESUPPORT.h
637    o pkg/seaice: implement sea-ice loading (when using RealFreshWaterFlux)
638    
639    checkpoint58p_post
640    o obcs: stop if obcs is used with useCDscheme = .true.
641    o shelfice:
642     - fix a sign error so that no slip at shelfice interface works
643     - remove stop for combination non-hydrostatic code and shelfice. That does
644       not mean, that the results are correct, but at least they are numerically
645       stable
646    o diagnoctics: modify UVELPHI and VVELPHI to include hfac (i.e. mass-weighted)
647    o added adjoint exch routined for all exch*3d* routines
648      and updated flow directives
649    
650    checkpoint58o_post
651    o replace calls to EXCH_Z & EXCH_UV_AGRID: use the new _3D_ version ;
652      remove old subroutines (_XY_ & _XYZ_); update the adjoint version.
653    o change controling S/R for writing pickup file (new S/R do_write_pickup)
654      and clean-up reading/writing of pickup files.
655    o fix local version of read/write pickup (NH part) in rotating_tank/code
656    o simplify EXCH interface:
657     - change _XYZ_ interface to _3D_ subroutine (with 3rd dim in argument list)
658     - not often used EXCH S/R (exch_z, exch_uv_agrid): keep only the _3D_ version
659    o added the regrid package
660    o shelfice:
661     - add a simple boundary layer scheme to reduce noise
662     - fix the indexing in shelfice_u/v_drag so that there will be actually drag
663    
664    checkpoint58n_post
665    o fix globalArea multi-threaded calculation: need to apply GLOBAL_SUM to
666       local variable (not in common block).
667    o lot of small changes for multi-threaded. Most tests (using OMP & ifort) pass.
668      - still problems with pkgs: mnc, exp2, dic, cal, exf (and probably more);
669      - still BEGIN_MASTER/END_MASTER to remove around READ/WRITE_FLD S/R calls
670        to work with SingleCpuIO.
671    o add "_d 0" to real constant of pkg/cfc subroutines ;
672       update exp. cfc_exemple & tutorial_cfc_offline output files.
673    o multi-threading and IO:
674      - all threads call READ_FLD S/R (needed if using SingleCpuIO):
675        (no BEGIN_MASTER/ END_MASTER around the call, but inside MDSIO S/R.
676      - barrier before and after reading.
677      - stop if other than master is calling MDS_WRITELOCAL (if #undef IO_THREAD_SAFE)
678      - avoid using MDS_WRITELOCAL for LAND pkg output.
679      - new S/R AIM_WRITE_PHYS (replaces AIM_WRITE_LOCAL) to write AIM physics
680        common-block variables ; Allows multi-threading with master-thread IO.
681    o change default MAX_NO_THREADS from 32 to 4 ;
682      and stop cleanly when MAX_NO_THREADS is too small.
683    o add S/R BAR_CHECK to check multi-threaded barrier synchronization
684    
685    checkpoint58m_post
686    o add a Non-Hydroatatic test (with 3-D Coriolis, NHMTerms, biharmonic Visc.
687       and side-drag) on CS-grid : global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
688    o make "tutorial_global_oce_latlon" from standard "global_ocean.90x40x15" exp.
689       keep global_ocean.90x40x15 (for AD testing) with former secondary test
690       (".qshyd") as the main test (mv output.qshyd.txt to output.txt)
691    o CVS modules: update MITgcm_verif_basic; remove MITgcm_verif_ocean & _verif_atmos;
692        add MITgcm_tutorials (= code + all the tutorials)
693    o ecco, option to compute cost for total ssh (mean+anom)
694    o consistent with addition of ptracer and ssh in pkg/profiles
695    o profiles: adding ptracer and ssh
696    o testreport: change multi-test output-file name
697      (from output.txt.{name} to output.{name}.txt)
698    o profiles: now ok for mutli-tiles case
699    o seaice: add 4 parameters for different advection schemes for area,
700      (effective) seaice thickness, enthalphy, and snow height. Their default
701      is the standard parameter SEAICEadvScheme
702    o calc_gw:
703     - add cosFacU in zonal viscous flux (harmonic.visc.).
