4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o pkg/seaice:
8     - make the (placeholder-)tracer IceAge a little more meaningful
9      by avoiding ridging of age due to convergent ice flow
10     - add diagnostics for surface temperature
11    
12    checkpoint61p
13    o eesupp (global_max & global_sum):
14     - add one more element to buffer (start at index 0) for GL_MAX/SUM output;
15     - remove starting & endding barrier (no longer needed)
16    o pkg/mdsio, writelocal:
17       works also in multi-threaded when LOCBIN_IO_THREAD_SAFE is undefined
18       (remove the STOP): uses shared buffer IO to store data from all threads
19       and then let master-thread write nThreads tiles.
20    o pkg/mdsio (read/write field):
21     - tiled IO done in 1 piece (all levels at a time);
22     - new header file "MDSIO_BUFF_3D.h" with 3-D buffers.
23     - multi-threaded: allow to read/write local (non-shared) array
24       (was already working with singleCpuIO ; now works also without);
25       => no longer needs barrier call after reading a file (added inside
26       mds_read/write field).
27     - move barrier calls outside gather/scatter_2d to mds_read/write_field
28    o pkg/obcs/exf
29      - exf_getffieldrec.F: add a few ". _d 0" and
30                            add code to catch the case fldperiod = 0.  
31      - obcs_precribe_read.F: change if statements so that they match
32                              the variable type (_RL)
33      - add a separate exf_iprec_obcs to exf_set_obcs (by default equal to
34        exf_iprec) as part of namelist EXF_NML_01
35    o pkg/mdsio:
36      - read/write tiled (local) files: read/write 1-level tile chunk at a time
37        (instead of segment of length sNx); expected to speed up tiled IO.
38    o pkg/exch2:
39      - take buffer copy from/to array out of S/R exch2_send/recv into new
40        S/R exch2_put/get ; Exch of local variable now works with MPI+MTH
41        (tested by removing commom block statement in SOLVE_FOR_PRESSURE.h).
42      - ad version of send/recv no longer needed (but needs exch2_ad_put/ad_get)
43      - simplify argument list of S/R exch2_get_uv_bounds and exch2_get_scal_bounds
44        (which replaces exch2_get_recv_bounds & exch2_get_send_bounds) by
45        including Topology header file (and common blocks).
46      - implement EXCH_IGNORE_CORNERS in scalar exchange (rx1);
47        remove 2nd exch call in exch2_s3d_rx (no longer needed).
48      - document S/R arg. list (+ update some comments)
49    o pkg/seaice:
50      - added SEAICE_CLIM_AIR code, which permits modulation of surface air
51        temperature and humidity over sea ice based on climatological values.
52      - clean up computation of Hibler+Bryan (1987) stress coupling for the case
53        of LSR (this change is expected to change the results slightly because now
54        it uses slightly difference moduli from the second last LSR solution, but
55        that is more consistent with the stress computations; this part of the code
56        is not tested in the verification experiments)
57      - fix diagnostics for flux of ice in case of B-grid
58      - turn strain rates eij and press into global fields within global
59        common block in SEAICE.h for more straighforward diagnostics
60      - fix diagnostics for principal stress components, press, zeta, eta
61        to give something meaning full
62    o change tiling of global_ocean.cs32x15 (12 tiles, 32x16) and generate
63      new output (all 4 tests) using default rotationPeriod.
64    o pkg KPP:
65      - add flag (LimitHblStable) to avoid limiting BL depth under stable conditions
66      - fix vertical indices in RI_IWMIX (match between KPP grid from 0 to Nr+1
67        and normal grid from 1 to Nr)
68    o Fix computations of L4rdt in mom_calc_visc.F
69    o eesupp:
70      new S/R ALL_PROC_DIE (like EEDIE, without irrelevant threads err msg):
71      should be called before a "stop" if we know that all process are going
72      to stop; if one Proc does call this S/R, will hang in MPI_FINALISE.
73    
74    checkpoint61o
75    o pkg/exch2: change check_depths to issue just a warning (instead of error+stop)
76    o model/src/ini_curvilinear_grid.F:
77       compute angleSin/CosC when they are not read from a file
78    o pkg/seaice:
79       add pseudo time stepping for LSOR
80    o pkg/exch2:
81       temporary fix for exch2_s3d_rx; update results of exp. hs94.cs-32x32x5.impIGW
82    o pkg/seaice:
83       Adding separate sea ice albedo, drag coefficients, and HO in Southern
84       Ocean from those in Arctic Ocean.  See *_south in SEAICE_PARAMS.h
85    o SingleCpuIO:
86       fix bug put before chkp61n (May 11), when more than 2 MPI cpu are used.
87    o pkg/seaice:
88       put exchanged variable in (local) common block for MPI+Multi-Threads
89       to work (necessary with exch1, and for now with exch2 too).
90    o verification: to get more experiments tested with mpi, mth and mpi+mth,
91      change tiling of:
92       aim.5l_Equatorial_Channel, aim.5l_LatLon, dome, exp4, global_ocean.90x40x15,
93       hs94.cs-32x32x5, MLAdjust, offline_exf_seaice & tutorial_plume_on_slope
94      update output of exp:
95       exp4, global_ocean.90x40x15(+.dwslp), MLAdjust(all 5),
96       tutorial_plume_on_slope and hs94.cs-32x32x5 (use default rotationPeriod)
97      + ideal_2D_ocean: use default rotation period + test Global_Sum_SINGLECPU
98                       (note: output.txt generated on faulks using only 1 tile)
99    o eesupp & mdsio (SingleCpuIO):
100     - remove MISSING_TILE_IO (from MDSIO_OPTIONS.h), replaced by run-time
101       parameter "W2_useE2ioLayOut" (read from file "data.exch2").
102       Note: was not effective for globalFile & useSingleCpuIO=F; now fixed.
103     - move MDSIO_SCPU.h (pkg/mdsio) to EEBUFF_SCPU.h (eesupp/inc).
104     - fix GLOBAL_SUM_SINGLECPU when using Exch2; re-use same buffers and same
105       gather/scatter S/R as with SingleCpuIO (=> 1 less 2D global RL array).
106    o pkg/exch2:
107     - new code to set-up W2-Exch2 topology (replace matlab-topology-generator):
108       read parameter file "data.exch2" if it exists; otherwise try default regular
109       cube without blank-tile; new header file "W2_EXCH2_SIZE.h";
110     - update matlab-topology-generator (exch2_setup_cs6_print.m) to be compatible
111       with new code (not to be used, just as a backup solution).
112     - add examples (e.g., for lat-lon-cap_120) of parameter file "data.exch2"
113       in utils/exch2/input.
114    
115    checkpoint61n
116    o eesupp & mdsio (SingleCpuIO):
117      - move mapping to global io-buffer inside gather_2d/scater_2d: this save
118        memory (1 less 2D global RL array); skip 1 buffer copy; and only send/
119        receive real*4 array (instead of real*8) to read/write 32.bit files.
120        (new template for gather_2d/scater_2d, new set of S/R MDS_PASS_R4,8toRL,S
121         and remove new mapping S/R)
122    o pkg/mdsio: in preparation for topology-generator within pkg/exch2:
123      - Change declaration of SingleCpuIO buffer, reduced to only 1 dim.:
124        xyBuffer_size, which is set to W2_ioBufferSize from W2_EXCH2_PARAMS.h
125        when using exch2. Add S/R to map global io-buffer to global model array.
126      - uses exch2_global_Nx,y instead of exch2_domain_nxt,nyt.
127    
128    checkpoint61m
129    o write_utils : change WRITE_1D_R8 to WRITE_1D_RL
130      and add 3 other S/R for other types (R4,R8,RS).
131      Change calls to WRITE_0D/1D_R[4,8,S,L] to match the type of argument.
132    o eesupp/inc/CPP_EEMACROS.h (EXCH & GLOBAL_SUM/MAX macros):
133     - ensure suffix (_R4,_R8,_RS,_RL) correspondance between macro and S/R ;
134     - reduce number of macro definitions (keep only those which are used);
135       can always call directly the corrresponding S/R if needed.
136     - everywhere in the code: change macros (EXCH & GLOBAL_SUM/MAX) suffix
137       _R4/_R8 to _RS/_RL when applied to _RS/_RL variable.
138     Fixed wrong type of arg in:
139       atm2d/put_ocnvars.F cheapaml/cheapaml.F ocn_compon_interf/ocn_apply_import.F
140       ctrl/ctrl_map_ini_ecco.F seaice/seaice_do_diags.F seaice/seaice_model.F
141     To fix: global_sum of var in common block is wrong (multi-threaded) in:
142       dic/dic_atmos.F ebm/ebm_area_t.F ebm/ebm_zonalmean.F sbo/sbo_calc.F
143     To fix: aim_v23/aim_do_co2.F (BARRIER & GLOBAL_SUM within bi,bj loops)
144    o adjustment.cs-32x32x1: test "blank tiles" when compiling with mpi; 2nd
145      "nlfs" mpi test is going to stop when checking for unconnected tile egdes.
146    o eesupp/src: new S/R to stop everyone when 1 (or more) Proc. find an error
147    o pkg/exch2: new S/R EXCH2_CHECK_DEPTHS to check that unconnected tile
148      edges are closed (zero depth); might happen with "blank tiles";
149      for now, disabled if using OBCS.
150    o tools/gemake2: delete modifs from March 27-29 2009 (with option "-mpi":
151      link *_mpi files from "MODS" dir) to return to a strait-forward behavior.
152    o move read_write.F to write_utils.F ; new parameter (maxLengthPrt1D)
153      to reduce length of 1.D array print in STDOUT.
154    o adjustment.cs-32x32x1: changed to oceanic test with 1 continent
155      + use 48 tiles (16x8): this will allow to test "blank tiles".
156    o start to test MPI + multi-threaded (change testreport to skip tests
157      where number of tiles do not match).
158    o genmake2: add option "-omp" to turn on Open-MP ;
159      passed to testreport (if using -mth) ; merge few (*+mth) optfiles.
160    o pkg/exch2 (+ utils/exch2): ignore blank tiles (instead of removing them)
161      and keep the original tile numbering. Note: compatible with old
162      W2_EXCH2_TOPOLOGY.h & w2_e2setup.F topology files.
163    
164    checkpoint61l
165    o Overlaps had been forgotten in calculating ijk keys : fixed
166    o fix cyrus makedepend for gcc 4.4
167    o experiment fizhi-cs-aqualev20:
168      switching to new version of S/R GETPWHERE (#define TRY_NEW_GETPWHERE)
169      and generate new output. Note: new output is much closer to the old
170      one (v1.8) generated with pgf77 -O2 on Mar 14 2007 than it is from
171      the previous one (v1.9) generated with pgf77 -O0 on Jun 13 2007.
172    o pkg/fizhi:
173     - change to avoid indices going deliberately over array-bounds
174     - remove unnecessary MPI stuff
175     - perpetual spring equinox with "#define FIZHI_USE_FIXED_DAY"
176     - new version of S/R GETPWHERE available with #define TRY_NEW_GETPWHERE:
177       does not go over array-bounds and therefore returns reliable output.
178     - in fizhi_driver.F & fizhi_turb.F, fix "get_alarm" calls:
179       this S/R has 4 output arguments, which are used inside "get_alarm";
180       when it is called with the same variable "ndum" in place of several
181       output arguments, this produces weird side effect inside "get_alarm"
182      (e.g., datein=dates(n) is overwritten by timein=times(n) since both
183       datein & timein, resp. 2nd and 3rd arg., are pointed to the same "ndum"
184       address) and produces error.
185    o tools/gemake2: (March 27-29 2009)
186      with option "-mpi": link *_mpi files from "MODS" dir (this is what
187      testreport does).
188    o lab_sea experiment: change from 2x1 tiles to 2x2 tiles and regenerate output
189    o pkg/seaice: fix bug in new version of S/R SEAICE_LSR.F:
190       update lab_sea.lsr & lab_sea.salt_plume results
191    o pkg/seaice:
192      Major overhaul of the LSOR solver: change discretization from original
193      finite differences to finite volume. The old routine is still in the
194      file seaice_lsr.F and can be turned on with the CPP-flag
195      SEAICE_OLD_AND_BAD_DISCRETIZATION
196      Along with this change, the discretization of the strain rates is changed.
197      The same flag turns on the old discretization in seaice_calc_strainrates.F
198      All verification experiments with seaice are affected (except for
199      seaice_exf_offline); global_ocean.cs32x15/input.icedyn recovers the old
200      results by setting the above flag.
201      Further changes involve changes in defaults:
202      - ALLOW_FLOODING is defined and turned on by default
203      - SEAICEadvSnow = .true. is now the default
204      - SEAICEadvSalt = .true. is now the default
205      - SEAICEadvAge  = .true. is now the default
206      - SEAICE_clipVelocities  = .false. is now the default
207                                         (as per J. Zhang's recommendation)
208      - B-grid, and thus not tested: SEAICE_TEST_ICE_STRESS_1/EXPLICIT_SSH_SLOPE
209        is defined, SEAICE_TEST_ICE_STRESS_1 is renamed into SEAICE_BICE_STRESS
210      - seaice_growth: replace computation of UG by a simple copy from wspeed
211    
212    checkpoint61k
213    o pkg/seaice: a few bug fixes mostly concerning the metric terms:
214      seaice_lsr: fixed a few metric terms,
215                  affects lab_sea.lsr, lab_sea.salt_plume, seaice_obcs
216                  add more debugging diagnostics
217      seaice_evp: removed superfluous many metric terms of FV discretization
218                  of stress divergence
219                  affects lab_sea, lab_sea.hb87
220      seaice_ocean_stress: removed superfluous many metric terms of FV discretization
221                  of stress divergence for non-evp solver
222                  (this part is not tested anywhere)
223      seaice_calc_strainrates: fixed a bug in no-slip boundary conditions,
224                  they were effectively only half slip
225                  affects lab_sea.hb87
226      updated all relevant verification experiments (except lab_sea//output_adm.txt
227        which was left over, but fails at level 7 & 6)
228    
229    checkpoint61j
230    o pkg/seaice: turn a few hard wired parameters into run time parameters
231    o pkg/seaice/exf/monitor: turn netcdf coordinate variable T into model
232      time in seconds as promised by the usints in seaice_monitor and exf_monitor
233    o pkg/mnc: fix the coordinate variables for multi-tile curvi-linear grids
234      that are not cubed-sphere grids
235    o pkg/seaice: fix a bug for the rare case of SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR
236    o pkg/ctrl:
237      fix bug in ctrl_depth_ini.F (EXCH_XYZ was applied to 2-D field xx_r_low)
238    o non-hydrostatic (calc_gw.F):
239      fix viscA4 on CS-grid + fix diagnostics: Wm_Diss & Wm_Advec
240      update output of exp. global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
241    o remove backward compatibility for thetaMin,phiMin
242      (replaced by xgOrigin,ygOrigin on Jan 27, 2009)
243    o pkg/exf: fix a serious bug in exf_set_uv.F: do a rotation of the
244      interpolated wind field not only for curvilineargrid=.true., but also
245      for a rotated grid (rotateGrid=.true.)
246    o pkg/exf: add capability to bypass interpolation for runoff
247      by setting yet another CPP-flag
248    o eesupp/src, B-grid exchange:
249      add simple (6 tiles, non MPI) CS exch + standard interface S/R.
250    o autodiff
251      new CPP option ALLOW_TAMC_SINGLEPREC_COMLEV
252      allows to switch to single-prec common blocks;
253      corresponding switch occurs in tamc.h, integer isbyte
254      TAF store directivs "byte" and "kind" seem equivalent;
255      Most tamc.h have been updated correspondingly.
256    
257    checkpoint61i
258    o autodiff:
259      fix autodiff_sore/_restore indices for obcs
260      (spotted by I. Hoteit, M. Mazloff)
261    o pkg/autodiff, pkg/ctrl:
262      Add flag to reduce all tapelev I/O to single-prec.
263      In data.ctrl set
264        doSinglePrecTapelev = .TRUE.
265    o model/src/ini_curvilinear_grid.F, new grid-file format without EXCH2:
266      check in hack for SX8 compiler (for dxV, dyU); remove it afterwards.
267    o pkg/shelfice: fix bug with SHELFICEconserve flag, prepare for
268      real fresh water flux (not yet)
269    o pkg/mdsio & rw:
270     - add argument & option to S/R MDS_WRITEVEC_LOC (avoid Open/Close & write-meta)
271     - add simple interface S/R to MDS_WRITEVEC_LOC in pkg/rw: WRITE_GLVEC_RX.
272    o pkg/flt:
273     - replace FLT_INIT by 3-steps standard initialization S/R: readparms,
274       init_fixed & ini_varia.
275     - clean-up & simplify linear interpolation S/R:
276       move flt_bilinear.F -> flt_interp_linear.F ; add arg. myThid.
277     - fix some indices (mainly vertical index) ; add IMPLICIT NONE.
278     - more efficient I/O, using new options of MDS_WRITEVEC_LOC S/R.
279     - add vert. coordinate & horiz. indices to output files.
280     - change vertical position in initial condition, from index to depth [m].
281     - store horizontal (decimal) indices i,j in common block (instead of coord. x,y)
282       (easier to get to a curvilinear grid) ; delX,delY no longer used.
283    o pkg/ggl90: a few modifications:
284     - fix bottom boundary condition, and interpolation of KappaE
285       near top and bottom
286     - use same set of viscosity/diffusivity for TKE/momnetum/tracer
287     - add smoothing option as in Blanke and Delecluse (1993) (--> ALLOW_GGL90_SMOOTH)
288     - add a few options for mixing-length upper limit (--> mxlMaxFlag)  
289    o rename thetaMin,phiMin -> xgOrigin,ygOrigin
290      (maintain temporary backward compatibility, until next checkpoint)
291    
292    checkpoint61h
293    o pkg/diagnostics with "periodic averaging diagnostics":
294      fix S/R DIAGNOSTICS_COUNT ; hack diagnostics_out.F to get NetCDF output.
295    o pkg/my82: add missing "_d 0" ; update output of exp. vermix.my82
296    o pkg/obcs: fix loop ranges for balancing code
297    o pkg/flt:
298     - improve criteria for finding which tile owns a float.
299     - fix FLT_EXCH for case without MPI ; apply cyclic BC + fix also the MPI case.
300    o Add well-mixed CO2 box in aim_v23 (which includes changes in pkg
301      aim_compon_interf, ocn_compon_interf, gchem, and dic to get coupling
302      with ocean biogeo)
303    o pkg/flt:
304     - do some cleaning and fix the restart ;
305     - add output.txt in flt_example/results to get this pkg tested.
306    o genmake2: add an EXTENDED_SRC option and flag.
307       for now, cannot be turned on on command line (only through genmake_local)
308    o pkg/mdsio: read/write vector:
309     - singleCpuIO: fix RL/RS in MDSWRITEVECTOR by calling new S/R MDS_BUFFERtoRL/RS
310     - singleCpuIO=F: fix arrType & filePrec & _BYTESWAPIO in both MDSREADVECTOR
311       & MDSWRITEVECTOR by calling new S/R MDS_RD/WR_VEC_RL/RS.
312     - affects gradient of test-exp "bottom_ctrl_5x5" (not due to _BYTESWAPIO)
313      (drop to 4 digits matching for grad). But this test does not look very
314      reliable (was already failling on eddy, fc5, at 6.digits). Update output.
315    
316    checkpoint61g
317    o pkg/flt:
318      - move FLT_CPPOPTIONS.h to FLT_OPTIONS.h (standard name)
319       + make OPTIONS file more standard.
320      - rename S/R MDSREADVECTOR_FLT to FLT_MDSREADVECTOR (to mach src file name)
321      - fix _BYTESWAPIO CPP-Flag
322      - standard reading of file-parameter "data.flt"
323      - fix argument list of S/R FLT_RESTART
324      still need to fix _BYTESWAPIO in pkg/mdsio/mdsio_writevector.F
325    o pkg/obcs: fix a CPP-flag, bug reported by Jeff Blundell
326    o gather_2d.F/scatter_2d.F: suppress vectorisation on NEC SX in respond to
327      a still unfixed compiler/optimization bug
328    
329    checkpoint61f
330    o pkg/seaice, LSR solver: fix bug in GLOBAL_MAX calls ;
331      update results of global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn test.
332    o move getcon.F from model/src to pkg/fizhi.
333    o pkg/exf: add parameter for extrapolation of temp up to the surface
334       and option to prevent negative evap (in bulk_largeyeager04 only).
335    o Prather Advection scheme: fix tracer conservation for divergent flow
336      (e.g., when using NonLin Free-Surface).
337    o kpp: retire KPPmld diagnostics --> use MXLDEPTH instead
338    o gmredi (Visbeck-variable-K):
339     - add more parameters to Visbeck-variable-K.
340     - use a 5 points average for dSigmaR in Visbeck-K calculation
341       (more "homogenous": same stencil and same weights as in dSigmaH)
342     - update output of ideal_2D_oce experiment.
343    o fix CPP-flag REAL4_IS_SLOW, when _RS expands into real*4
344      (#undef REAL4_IS_SLOW)
345     - pkg/mnc/mnc_cw_cvars.F: write _RS-grid variable as netcdf-real*4
346       coordinate variable
347     - pkg/monitor/monitor.F: call mon_printstats_rs for _RS variables
348       (surface forcing fields), removes some of the functionality
349     - model/src/write_grid.F: write _RS variables as RS-netcdf variables
350     - model/src/diags_oceanic_surf_flux.F: fix a few diagnostics, but
351       probably not all: copy _RS surface flux fields to RL field before
352       calling DIAGNOSTICS_FILL
353     - model/inc/CPP_EEMACROS.h: make the _EXCH_*_RS macros expand into
354       real*4 (CALL EXCH_*_RS) versions.
355     - tested in 2 experiments: inverted_barometer & solid-body.cs-32x32x1
356       (generate new output).
357    
358    checkpoint61e
359    o gmredi (Visbeck-variable-K):
360      - fix the "OLD_VISBECK_CALC" option + move the #undef to GMREDI_OPTIONS.h
361      - change computation of Visbeck-K where Slope > Smax :        
362        now: N*min(Slope,Smax) (similar to OLD_VISBECK_CALC with gkw91 taperFct)
363        previously was: M*sqrt(min(Slope,Smax)) ; update ideal_2D_oce output.
364    o bottom-drag in P-coord.: change units of bottomDragLinear & bottomDragQuadratic
365      to be the same as with Z-coord. (i.e., m/s & no-units respectively).
366    o calc_viscosity: fix index range (was wrong for CD-Scheme & explicit Visc)
367    o pkg gmredi, linear & fm07 tapering: put an upper limit on Slope^2 so that Kwz
368      does not become too large (to avoid precision problems in implicit-diffusion
369      solver); update ideal_2D_oce output.
370    o pkg ggl90:
371      - in ggl90_cal.F: compute only one set of visc/diff, used to
372        step forward TKE/T/S/momentum
373      - default value of GGL90viscMax/GGL90diffMax larger and equal (to
374        have Prandlt =1)
375    o gmredi (fm07):
376      - add lower limit on Transition layer thickness + lower limit on 1/lambda
377      - allow to set few more params from data.gmredi
378    o pkg ggl90:
379          - add missing sqrt(2) factor in computation of mixing length
380            scale in ggl90_calc.F
381            (see Eq. (2.35) in Blanke and Delecluse, JPO, 1993)
382    
383    checkpoint61d
384    o adjoint modifs
385      - adapt to new field rhoInSitu
386      - allow to revert from StoreDynVars2D, StoreDynVars3D
387        to individual fields
388        (switches AUTODIFF_USE_OLDSTORE_2D, AUTODIFF_USE_OLDSTORE_3D)
389    o store 3-D (in-situ) density in commom block (DYNVARS.h)
390     - save 1 rho computation.
391     - no longer modify T & S inland when using down_slope pkg.
392    o gad_som : allow to switch to SOM advection for T & S without corresponding
393      pickup files (using new S/R: MDS_CHECK4FILE).
394    o keep removing _BEGIN/_END_MASTER between MDSIO S/R call
395      (for useSingleCpuIO to work in multi-threaded)
396    o pkg/shelfice:
397     - disentangle parameters: retire shelfIceFile in data/PARM05 and substitute
398       with SHELFICEtopoFile in data.shelfice
399     - move code for reading ice shelf topography and modifying hFacC into separate
400       subroutines of the shelfice package
401     - separate initialisation of "fixed" and "variable" variables
402     - kTopC is not (yet) replaced by kSurfC, although this is possible
403    o fix broken diagnostic SIatmFW and changed the units from m/s to kg/m^2/s
404    o add initialisation of deepFac if using Pcoords (new S/R set_grid_factors)
405      and rename:
406      ini_phiref.F          --> set_ref_state.F  (+ set anelastic factors)
407      ini_reference_state.F --> load_ref_files.F (- set anelastic factors)
408    o change FIND_RHO_SCALAR : return rho (instead of rho - rhoConst)
409    
410    checkpoint61c
411    o add option ALLOW_ADDFLUID and run-time selector "selectAddFluid"
412      to add mass source/sink of fluid in the interior (3-D generalisation
413      of oceanic real-fresh water flux).
414    o pkg/monitor: fix recip_dr argument in mon_advcflw2 call (-> advcfl_W_hf_max)
415    o vermix test experiment: switch from LINEAR EOS to MDJWF (not tested before)
416    o new pkg: down_slope
417      density-driven downsloping flow parameterisation (Tellus, 1999, 412-430).
418      - presently, modify T & S inland (dwnslp_calc_rho.F).
419        can be avoided if rho was stored in common bloc and used in calc_phi_hyd.
420      - implementation for ocean in P-coords not tested.
421      - add secondary test to global_ocean.90x40x15 (input.dwnslp) to check this pkg.
422    o move kSurfC,kSurfW & kSurfS from SURFACE.h to GRID.h (next to kLowC)
423      (to facilitate conversion of oceanic pkg to p-coordinate).
424    o change FIND_RHO to FIND_RHO_2D :
425      pass arguments tFld & sFld as local (tile) 2D-arrays ; +fix EOS_CHECK.
426    o new pkg: cheapaml
427    
428    checkpoint61b
429    o exch2:
430      change index bounds in rx2_cube exchanges (new S/R: EXCH2_GET_UV_BOUNDS)
431      - no longer depend on the order sequence (N,S,E,W).
432      - 3rd exchange no longer needed (tested with 24 tiles).
433      - same modif to hand-written adjoint S/R (global_ocean.cs32x15: zero diff)
434      - exch_UV_A-grid readily available (but not yet tested).
435      comment out 3rd exch call and remove copy of V to U at SE & NE face-corners
436      (both are no longer needed) in exch_uv: no effect in forward run; but
437       get truncation error differences with adjoint exch.
438    o exch2:
439     - change index-bounds storage (moved from target to local tile,
440       more intuitive this way) ; rename/remove some variables.
441     - change utils/exch2/matlab-topology-generator & code_mods accordingly.
442    
443    checkpoint61a
444    o exch2/matlab-topology-generator:
445      fix bug in index bounds for N-S internal exchange (hard to tell if this
446      had any effect on the solution).
447    o pkg/mnc: small fix in mnc_handle_err: make sure that length of msgbuf
448      is exceeded
449    o testreport: modify syntax of awk, so that it works also with
450      awk, and not only with nawk and gawk
451    
452    checkpoint61
453    o autodiff
454      Change default for TAF usage by removing argument '-nonew_arg'
455      This changes TAF subroutine argument list (ordering of active var.)
456      Omission of this flag leads to incompatibility w.r.t. TAMC
457      To restore TAMC-compatibility, need following modifs:
458      * use adoptfile tools/adjoint_options/adjoint_tamc_compatibility
459      * use CPP option #define AUTODIFF_TAMC_COMPATIBILITY
460      Tested TAF version is 1.9.22
461      N.B.: exch2 hand-written adjoint code currently not TAMC compatible
462    
463    checkpoint60
464    --->>> This is the last checkpoint for which generating the adjoint
465    --->>> is done via the TAMC-compatibility TAF-flag "-nonewarg"
466    --->>> by default.
467    --->>> Future checkpoints will ommit this flag by default.
468    o pkg/generic_advdiff, os7mp: simplify and avoid division by zero.
469    o pkg/grdchk: Add gradient check to etan0 perturbations.
470    o pkg/exf: read ice area from file (#ifdef ALLOW_ICE_AREAMASK).
471    o pkg/autodiff: more flexibility in zeroadj.
472      model/src: modifying do_oceanic_phys.F accordingly.
473    o pkg/ctrl: Bounds for (kapgm,kapredi,eddypsi) parameter estimation.
474    o model/src and pkg/gmredi: GMREDI_WITH_STABLE_ADJOINT CPP option
475      special setup of gmredi for which the adjoint is stable
476      enough for parameter optimization.
477    o bridging the gap between eddy stress and GM.
478      -> eddyTau is replaced with eddyPsi (eddyTau = f x rho0 x eddyPsi)
479          along with a change in CPP option (now ALLOW_EDDYPSI).
480      -> when using GM w/ GM_AdvForm:
481          The total eddy streamfunction (Psi = eddyPsi + K x Slope)
482          is applied either in the tracer Eq. or in momentum Eq.
483          depending on data.gmredi (intro. GM_InMomAsStress).
484      -> ALLOW_EDDYPSI_CONTROL for estimation purpose.
485      The key modifications are in model/src/taueddy_external_forcing.F
486      pkg/gmredi/gmredi_calc_*F pkg/gmredi/gmredi_*transport.F
487    
488    checkpoint59r
489    o new S/R (pkg/mdsio/mdsio_facef_read.F) reading of sNx+1 x sNy+1 array
490      from per-face file (take S/R READSYMTILE_RS out of ini_curvilinear_grid.F);
491      fix option to read coriolis(@ cell-corner) from files with CS-grid.
492    o pkg/mnc: add some attributes to standard 1D-coordinate variables
493    o pkg/diagnostics: enforce missing_value attribute for scalar variables at
494      mass points, when using mnc for output
495      - add runtime parameter (missing_value, missing_value_int) to override
496        default (which is the value of getcon('UNDEF'))
497    o pkg/mnc: prepare mnc for the actual use of missing values with the
498      diagnostics package: small fix in mnc_cw_readwrite.template and more
499      initialisation of never used fields
500      - replace mnc_common.h and mnc_id_header.h with corresponding upper case
501      versions
502    o pkg/thsice/thsice_ini_vars.F added default initial values so that
503      thermodynamics sea ice solver does not blow up when some initial fields
504      are missing.
505    o move from external_forcing_surf.F to ini_forcing.F
506      the p-coord. hack consisting in using pLoad to set phi0surf ;
507      update output of tutorial_global_oce_in_p (affected @ truncation level).
508    o Freshen up a bit hs94.1x64x5, notably:
509      remove rotationPeriod and tRef=5*0. (adjoint only), and add
510      exactConserv=.TRUE.
511    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
512      change option GAD_ALLOW_SOM_ADVECT to GAD_ALLOW_TS_SOM_ADV which only
513      applies to files where Temperature & Salinity 2nd Order moments are used.
514    o pkg/ptracers: add second-order moment advection schemes (80 and 81);
515      this uses a dynamically allocated internal state data structure
516      (#define PTRACERS_ALLOW_DYN_STATE in PTRACERS_OPTIONS.h)
517      and requires a fortran 90 compiler
518    
519    checkpoint59q
520    o pkg/mom_vecinv: Add energy & enstrophy conserving scheme (selectVortScheme=3)
521       (from Sadourny, described by Burridge & Haseler, ECMWF Rep.4, 1977)
522    o Refresh tutorial_global_oce_biogeo, notably:
523      - change bathymetry (put back seamounts in ACC, use hFacs)
524      - change EOS (POLY3 --> JMD95Z)
525      - use Bryan-Lewis vertical diffusivity
526      - use multidimensional advection
527      - remove old virtual virtual in dic pkg, now done through ptracer pkg
528      - change a couple of parameters in dic pkg
529    o pkg/ctrl: change formula in adctrl_bound.F and add a parameter to ctrl_map_ini_gen.F
530    o pkg/obcs: change default to OBCSfixTopo = .true.,
531      - set OBCSfixTopo=.false. in exp4/input/data.obcs to reproduce old result
532      - replace "debugMode" with "debugLevel .GE. debLevB"
533    o implementation of TAF directives for gchem,cfc,dic
534    o remove "exp5" (replaced by tutorial_deep_convection).
535    o pkg/obcs: add code to fix topography gradients normal to open boundaries;
536      this requires computing the index fields OB_Jn/Js/Ie/Iw in obcs_readparms;
537      the code can be turned on by setting OBCSfixTopo = .true. in data.obcs
538      --> changes results in exp4, seaice_obcs
539    o tutorial_deep_convection :
540      update the set-up and increase resolution and domain size ; start
541      from pseudo initial conditions = output at t=120mn in order to see
542      something happening when running testreport.
543    o pkg/seaice: add os7mp as an advection scheme
544                  add check for advection schemes
545                  add a flag for restoring T and S underneath sea ice
546    o pkg/my82: add netcdf-support and diagnostics
547    o thsice pkg:
548      - Now hsMax limits snow height by turning it into ice following
549        flooding scheme (and now conserving energy)
550      - Slight rewriting of the formula in thsice_calc_thick.F
551      - Parameter rhowi eliminated to be replaced by floodFac = (rhosw-rhoi)/rhos
552      --> changes results of global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn and global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice
553    
554    checkpoint59p
555    o gchem / dic / cfc :
556      - add useDIC, useCFC , read from "data.gchem" (& hold in GCHEM.h);
557      - add new parameter files: "data.dic" & "data.cfc" ;
558      - various re-arrangement in initialisation & header file ;
559      - fix tutorial_global_oce_biogeo for multi-threaded test.
560    o pkg/dic: test for "pickup_dic" file when restarting ;
561      if no pickup-file, can restart with a re-initialised pH (same as it did
562      before) providing pickupStrictlyMatch is set to False.
563    o change argument list of S/R PTRACERS_WRITE_PICKUP & MYPACKAGE_WRITE_PICKUP
564      + fix call to S/R GGL90_WRITE_PICKUP & DIC_WRITE_PICKUP
565    o add a "warning" (to Error msg file) when an Active Tracer is not using AB-2
566      and staggerTimeStep is off (needed for stability of Internal-wave dynamics).
567    o move out of PARAMS.h & data the last pieces of old-ptracer code: tauTr1ClimRelax,
568     & lambdaTr1ClimRelax ; put those 2 params in PTRACERS_PARAMS.h & data.ptracers
569       (note: not clear to me what lambdaTr1ClimRelax is still used for ...)
570    o pkg/mom_vecinv: - new parameter "selectVortScheme" to select which
571       scheme to use for vorticty-term ;
572     - compute upwindVorticity=T case within mom_vi_u/v_coriolis_c4.F
573       (with default selectVortScheme, return to original discretisation)
574     - remove weird combination (e.g.: upwindVorticity & highOrderVorticity)
575    o pkg/seaice: add a line to the summary to indicate grid type (B/C)
576    o in mom_calc_visc, fix average value of viscAh_W & viscA4_W next to the
577      bottom ; only used with variable horizontal viscosity and non-hydrostatic.
578      also fix diagnostics VISCAHW & VISCA4W.
579    
580    checkpoint59o
581    o dome/code/obcs_calc.F: avoid division by zero (detected using gfortran).
582    o change the loop ordering in most gad_*_adv_x.F to improve vectorization:
583      move a few statemens out the main loop into separate loops
584    o pkg/shelfice:
585      - sort out freshwater flux; convert freshwater fluxes to mass fluxes
586        (kg/m^2/s), does not break tests, because in verification/isomip,
587        rhoConstFresh=rhoConst (by accident)
588      - rearrange computation of tLoc, sLoc, pLoc to make code more efficient
589      - move S/R find_rho_scalar, pkg/ecco/sw_ptmp.F, pkg/ecco/sw_adtg.F into
590        new file model/src/seawater.F, so that they are available for all pkgs.
591      - convert potential temperature into in-situ temperature. This changes the
592        isomip tests => update tests
593    o add a flag writePickupAtEnd (default=true) to be able to suppress
594      writing a pickup at the last timestep
595    o tools/mpack-1.6 :
596      - disable automake (not working) and autoconf (not needed).
597      - update to version 1.6.4 which fix MD5 code on some 64 bits platforms
598        also cleaner with much less compilation warnings.
599    o pkg/profiles:
600      rename profiles_interp_mean_genericgrid as profiles_interp_mean_gg
601      (for "less than 32 characters name" compiler requirement)
602    o pkg/obcs and pkg/exf: added capability to specify seaice open boundary
603      conditions that have a different sampling frequency than S/T/U/V obcs
604    o pkg/diagnostics (stats-diags):
605      - fix global Min/Max in case 1 processor get only empty tiles
606    o genmake2: replace (4 times)
607         make genmake_tc_1.o >> genmake_warnings 2>&1
608      with
609         COMM="$CC $CFLAGS -c genmake_tc_1.c"
610         echo $COMM >> genmake_warnings
611         $COMM >> genmake_warnings 2>&1
612      to make genmake2 always see the value of CC as specified in the optfile.
613    o generic_advdiff: - prather advection scheme (SOM) coded for CS-grid.
614      - add diagnostics for 1srt & 2nd Order moments and sub-grid variance.
615      - modify verification advect_cs test to test SOM-advection on CS-grid.
616    o pkg/ctrl:
617      - Rewrite of ctrl_map_ini_ecco.F,
618        introducing a generic routine (ctrl_map_ini_gen.F).
619      - Modification of ctrl_bound/adctrl_bound handling control vector bounds.
620    
621    checkpoint59n
622    o pkg/diagnostics: for large number of diagnostics, store diagnostic mate
623      number in dedicate array "hdiag":
624      - new version of S/R DIAGNOSTICS_ADD2LIST : DIAGNOSTICS_ADDTOLIST
625        with 1 more argument (mate number); modify old version DIAGNOSTICS_ADD2LIST.
626      - many small changes (integer format) for large number of diagnostics
627      - start to use DIAGNOSTICS_ADDTOLIST (necessary for diagnostics with
628        a counter mate) in pkg diagnostics, ptracers, thsice & aim_v23.
629    o add parameter rotateGrid and Euler angles EulerPhi/Theta/Psi. For
630      usingSphericalGrid, this allows to define the rotated grid coordinates
631      via phiMin/thetaMin/dxSpacing/dySpacing, etc., but then re-compute the
632      geographical coordinates according to the inverse of the rotation defined
633      by the Euler angles, so that Coriolis parameter and online-interpolation by
634      exf works with the geographical coordinates on XC/YC/XG/YG.
635      Naturally, this feature does not work with all packages, so some
636      combinations are prohibited in config_summary (flt, flt_zonal, ecco,
637      profiles), because there the coordinates are assumed to be regular
638      spherical grid coordinates.
639    o pkg/gmredi,ctrl,ecco,autodiff,grdchk and model/src,inc:
640      - introduce isopycnal diffusion coefficient control.
641    o tools/adjoint_options:
642      - additional control vector components.
643    o pkg/mnc: have mnc create marginally meaning full coordinate variables
644      (that is the grid indices) if usingCurvilinearGrid and NOT EXCH2
645    o pkg/mypackage:
646      - add example of read/write pickup for state-var ;
647      - add entry points to the main code for state-vars diags & write-pickup.
648    o pkg/exf: rewrite of exf_getffieldrec.F to properly deal with year
649      transitions for useExfYearlyFields
650      - add new subroutine that determines the file to read from for
651        use*YearlyFields = .TRUE. and .FALSE.
652      - add a verification experiment to global_with_exf that tests
653        useExfYearlyFields with USE_EXF_INTERPOLATION defined
654    o pkg/obcs/exf: add useOBCSYearlyFields (=.FALSE.) to obcs with exf in
655      analogy to useExfYearlyFields; rearrange obcs_prescribe_read: two new
656      subroutines (which could be generated from a template, because they are
657      almost identical), for now they are included in obcs_prescribe_read.F for
658      simplicity
659    o pkg/exf:
660      - add a little more diagnostic to exf_interp_read (in analogy to
661        mds_read_field, can be turned off with debugLevel < debugLevA=1)
662      - improve vectorizability of exf_interp for TARGET_NEC_SX, makes code
663        ugly but fast by unrolling short inner loops, inserting a unroll=8
664        directive in routine lagran, and splitting a loop and making do while the
665        outermost loop (the latter requires the intoduction of index arrays)
666    o pkg/obcs: replace obcs_apply_area/heff/hsalt/hsnow with obcs_apply_seaice
667    o pkg/seaice: moved DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE from seaice_model to seaice_dynsolver
668      http://forge.csail.mit.edu/pipermail/mitgcm-devel/2008-January/003173.html
669    o verification/seaice_obcs: updated for restart test and latest options
670    o pkg/seaice: add a new flag SEAICEuseTEM to use a slightly different
671      ice rheology (so-called truncated ellipse, that gets rid of tensile stress);
672      for now this is only available for the C-grid code and also within
673      #ifdef SEAICE_ALLOW_TEM, because this option may slow down the EVP code
674    
675    checkpoint59m
676    o pkg/seaice: use different time constant for melting (SEAICE_gamma_t)
677      and freezing (SEAICE_gamma_t_frz) ice due to mixed layer temperature
678    o gad_som : fix flux output (& diagnostics) to have same units as other  
679      advection scheme fluxes (was previously multiplied by deltaT).  
680    o added verification/seaice_obcs both to test seaice open boundaries
681      and to provide an example matlab scrpt for generating them
682    o added verification/lab_sea/input.salt_plume for testing pkg/salt_plume
683    o pkg/salt_plume: clean up salt_plume_frac.F to
684      remove redundancy in PlumeMethod 1 and 4
685    o pkg/kpp: added saltplume diagnostics
686    o pkg/obcs and pkg/seaice:
687      - do not set uice and vice to zero when OB*icefile are unspecified
688      - OBCS_SEAICE_AVOID_CONVERGENCE is undefined by default
689      - moved seaice tracer obcs after call to seaice_growth
690    o pkg/salt_plume: added various options for salt plume depth
691      criterion and for vertical distribution of the salt
692    
693    checkpoint59l
694    o pkg/ptracers: new version of ptracers pickup:
695      read meta file and write only fields which are needed to restart.
696      ( same logic as main pickup file ; also using pickupStrictlyMatch )
697    o pkg/seaice:
698      - add timescale for melting due to warm mixed layer as a means of
699        setting SEAICE_availHeatFrac more conveniently
700      - add a CPP-flag/runtime parameter check for flooding algorithm
701      - reformulated availHeat in seaice_growth.F to be independent of AREA
702    o change units attribute of EmPmR netcdf variables to kg/m^2/s to reflect recent
703      unit changes
704    o pkg/obcs: added OBCS_SEAICE_AVOID_CONVERGENCE constraint
705    o cg2d.F: add 3 compiler directives that speed up this routine by 30% on a NEC
706      SX vector computer.
707    o pkg/seaice:
708      - removed SEAICE_FFIELDS.h and seaice_get_forcing.F
709        seaice forcing fields can now be read only through pkg/exf
710      - removed some unused halos
711    o no longer write pickup from THE_MODEL_MAIN but always from FORWARD_STEP
712    o pkg/exf: added useRelativeWind EXF_PARAM.h option for subtracting U/VVEL
713      or U/VICE from U/VWIND before computing U/VSTRESS
714    
715    checkpoint59k
716    o pkg/seaice: ICE2WATR=SEAICE_rhoIce/rhoConst for consistency between
717      dynamics and thermodynamics. Set ICE2WATR=0.92 to reproduce older results.
718    o fix un-initialised variable problem (in mom_vecinv & shap_filt):
719      all experiments pass when compile with un-initialised var. checking option.
720    o added pkg/salt_plume
721    o script to test restart (for now, in MITgcm_contrib/jmc_script)
722    o pkg/seaice: new read/write pickup version.
723      read meta file and write only fields which are needed to restart.
724      ( same logic as main pickup file ; also using pickupStrictlyMatch )
725    o pkg/seaice: fix bug in seaice_ocean_stress (call of seaice_calc_strainrates)
726    o lab_sea.hb87: modify the domain & update output.hb87.txt :
727      lat-long grid & no-slip BC in seaice-dynamics produce different sigma12
728      at j=1 & j=Ny+1 : this case is not treated correctly in the restart
729      process. Fixed here by closing the domain at the Northern boundary.
730    o pkg/rw: cleaning-up: call directly new MDSIO S/R MDS_READ/WRITE_FIELD.
731    o pkg/mdsio: add new arguments to MDS_READ/WRITE_FIELD for reading/writing
732      a set of consecutive levels in/from a 3-D array.
733    o pkg/ptracers:
734      use a 2 characters string ioLabel to identify tracer (if more than 99 tracers).
735      to-do: fix pkg/diagnostics when large number of diagnostics are defined.
736    
737    checkpoint59j
738    o in pkgs: dic, obcs, offline, rbcs:
739      standard way to compute coeff. for time interpolation between 2 time reccords
740      which retains full precision (& make results less dependent on compiler).
741      update output of exp: tutorial_cfc_offline & tutorial_global_oce_biogeo.
742    o pkg/cfc: if compiled with exf and seaice, cfc now can use fields from those
743      packages instead of reading ice cover and wind speed separately
744    o split PTRACERS.h in 2 header files: PTRACERS_FIELDS.h & PTRACERS_PARAMS.h
745     (keep a temporary version of PTRACERS.h in verification/OpenAD/code_ad_openad
746      to allow to compile customized code before the update)
747    o cleaning-up:
748      - fix CPP instruction syntax in pkg/obcs
749      - replace (some) call to MDSIO S/R with call to RW interface S/R ; and
750        add #ifdef ALLOW_MDSIO elsewhere (allows to compile without pkg/mdsio)
751      - fix some threads issue in IO parts.
752    o pkg/dic:
753      - add tons of "_d 0" (--> much better testreports !)
754       and then update outputs of tutorial_global_oce_biogeo
755    o pkg/mom_fluxform:
756      add a special version of momentum advection intended to conserve momentum
757      next to a bathymetry step or a coastline edge. (default = off = #undef)
758    o new read/write pickup version:
759      - for now, only implemented for main (mdsio) pickup file.
760      - write out only what is needed to restart; merge pickup_nh , pickup_ph
761        and main pickup together.
762      - read meta file; read only what is needed to restart; stop if a field
763        is missing (if pickupStrictlyMatch=T, = the default) or try to restart
764        if it make sense (even if the restart is not perfect).
765      - if no meta file, assume that pickup to read corresponds exactly to
766        a pickup that would currently be written.
767      - read pickup written in the old format (until checkpoint59i) if it
768        recognizes an old meta file (no field-list).
769      - add a meta file in exp. which starts from a pickup: 2 cases:
770        a) minimal meta file (with just file precision) + pickupStrictlyMatch=F
771         e.g.: global_ocean.90x40x15/input/pickup.0000036000.meta
772        b) a meta file describing the content of the associated pickup file
773         e.g.: tutorial_global_oce_biogeo/input/pickup.0004248000.meta
774    o pkg/mdsio & pkg/rw:
775      - new routine to read a meta file ; new set of routine to read
776        Multiple-fields file (with meta file).
777    o added open boundary conditions capability for seaice
778        HSNOW, HSALT, UICE, and VICE
779    
780    checkpoint59i
781    o adjoint:
782      * fix multiDimAdvection adjoint
783        (partial recomputation problem by TAF for fVerT(:,:,kDown)
784        and comlev1 size definition (maxpass vs. max. number of tracers)
785      * verification/global_ocean.90x45x15 adjoint now tests
786        NLFS and multiDimAdvection using DST3 (=30)
787      * verification/lab_sea now tests multiDimAdvection using DST3 (=30)
788    o pkg/kpp: add "_d 0" to real constant (if missing);
789      update output of exp: natl_box (10.digits); vermix (std, 7.digits)
790      and lab_sea, 3.FW (only 6,4,6 digits match) & AD (8.digits).
791    o prepare for "clever pickup" implementation: add new header file "RESTART.h"
792      for internal parameters related to restart process (formerly from PARAMS.h)
793      and add startAB parameter to argument list of S/R ADAMS_BASHFORTH2.
794    o more standard interface to {PKG}_WRITE_PICKUP with pickup suffix passed
795      as argument. (only atm2d & obcs write_pickup have not yet been updated)
796    o pkg/monitor:
797      - use GLOBAL_SUM_TILE instead of _GLOBAL_SUM
798      - fix mon_stats_rs (statistics over the full domain, even where field is zero)
799      - account for deep Atmosphere factor and density factor (anelastic)
800    o added open boundary conditions capability for seaice HEFF and AREA
801    o pkg/shelfice: add option for convservative form of Hellmer&Olbers (1989)
802      thermodynamics
803      - requires a little reorganization, which affects the testreport results
804        of isomip.htd (only 7 digits of cg2d agree) => update/modify experiment,
805        so that now the conservative form is tested
806      - add a few comments
807    o add missing cvs Header: or Name: in eesupp/*, pkg/* & verification/code*
808    o add a little bit of code to gad_os7mp_adv_?.F to help vectorization
809    o add new diagnostics to seaice: advective, diffusive fluxes (only for
810      multidim-advection, for scheme 2 they are not filled) and transports,
811      thermodynamic growth rates
812    o change units of EmPmR (inside the code, + within coupling interface)
813      from m/s to kg/m2/s (mass flux) but leave input file unchanged.
814      Affects results @ truncation level (cg2d match) and update output of
815       experiments: lab_sea(6), global_ocean.90x40x15(10),
816      global_ocean.cs32x15(11x3,10), natl_box(11), tutorial_global_oce_latlon(11)
817      + adjoint results: global_ocean_ebm(11) and lab_sea (12).
818      Coupled set-up: allow to restart from previous pickups (cpl_oldPickup=T).
819      Next: will retire convertEmP2rUnit (simply using mass2rUnit instead).
820    
821    checkpoint59h
822    o pkg/exf:
823      - improve vectorization by moving if-statement out of loops in
824        exf_mapfields, exf_radiation
825      - exf_bulkformulae.F: introduce 2D fields and vectorize code
826    o pkg/kpp: added the salt plume scheme (ALLOW_SALT_PLUME) to KPP package
827    o testreport:
828      - allow to test for Qnet & SeaIce monitor output; clean-up ALLOW_BULK_OFFLINE
829        monitor & update offline_exf_seaice exp. output.
830      - AD testing: pass/FAIL according to Grad. output accuracy (instead of Cost)
831    o pkg/seaice:
832      - bug fix in the evp solver: boundary conditions were affected be
833        masking of zMax/zMin (changes results)
834      - minor bug fix in boundary conditions in seaice_calc_strainrates
835        (changes results for no_slip)
836      - seaice_lsr.F: make interpolation of eta dependent on boundaries
837      - replace hardcoded lower limit for zeta (zMin) by runtime parameter
838      - add a test to lab_sea, that tests the Hibler and Bryan (1987) ocean
839        stress formulation and no-slip boundary conditions
840    o pkg/ptracers: Temporary fix for PTRACERS_useGMRedi & PTRACERS_useKPP
841      in gad_calc_rhs.F ; add few safety stops in initialisation phase.
842    o pkg/seaice: a first HSALT time stepping equation has been checked in
843    o pkg/seaice: replaced maskW with seaiceMaskU and maskS with seaiceMaskV
844      in seaice_lsr.F; this solves the pkg/seaice-pkg/obcs problem
845      without requiring DO-IF statements
846    o pkg/thsice:
847      use continuous power-law function for partition of energy between lateral
848      melting/freezing and thinning/thickening ; old code using step function
849      still available with #undef THSICE_FRACEN_POWERLAW
850      update output of exp: aim.5l_cs.thSI, global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn & .thsice
851    o testreport: change AD testing : check against results/output_adm.txt
852      using same scripts as for forward test.
853    
854    checkpoint59g
855    o adjoint testing: in preparation for changing testreport:
856      - output format: cost and grad written on separated lines
857      - ad output results in directory "results" (instead of "results_ad")
858    o pkg/seaice: adding ice salinity HSALT as a prognostic variable
859    o pkg/seaice: changes for using pkg/seaice with pkg/obcs
860    o pkg/ecco: allow user defined cost function contributions
861    o testreport:
862      Allow to choose (per experiment) the list of tested output variables
863       and the main variable (used to issue a pass/FAIL ) ;
864      - for now, done by adding the specific list in file: [exp]/input/tr_checklist
865      - default is unchanged: >cg2d< , (T,S,U,V,5 tracers)_[min,max,mean,StD] ;
866      Also modify printing of summary:
867       a) ">" NN "<" indicates the "main" variable (used for pass/FAIL)
868       b) echo the list of tested variables in the individual summary.txt of
869          each experiment.
870    o new S/R GLOBAL_SUM_TILE to compute global sum independently of number of
871      threads and number of processes (with #define GLOBAL_SUM_SEND_RECV)
872      (but still depend on the tile decompostion of the domain).
873  o pkg/seaice: change a discretization detail to make the B-grid code  o pkg/seaice: change a discretization detail to make the B-grid code
