4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o pkg/cfc: if compiled with exf and seaice, cfc now can use fields from those
8      packages instead of reading ice cover and wind speed separately
9    o split PTRACERS.h in 2 header files: PTRACERS_FIELDS.h & PTRACERS_PARAMS.h
10     (keep a temporary version of PTRACERS.h in verification/OpenAD/code_ad_openad
11      to allow to compile customized code before the update)
12    o cleaning-up:
13      - fix CPP instruction syntax in pkg/obcs
14      - replace (some) call to MDSIO S/R with call to RW interface S/R ; and
15        add #ifdef ALLOW_MDSIO elsewhere (allows to compile without pkg/mdsio)
16      - fix some threads issue in IO parts.
17    o pkg/dic:
18      - add tons of "_d 0" (--> much better testreports !)
19       and then update outputs of tutorial_global_oce_biogeo
20    o pkg/mom_fluxform:
21      add a special version of momentum advection intended to conserve momentum
22      next to a bathymetry step or a coastline edge. (default = off = #undef)
23    o new read/write pickup version:
24      - for now, only implemented for main (mdsio) pickup file.
25      - write out only what is needed to restart; merge pickup_nh , pickup_ph
26        and main pickup together.
27      - read meta file; read only what is needed to restart; stop if a field
28        is missing (if pickupStrictlyMatch=T, = the default) or try to restart
29        if it make sense (even if the restart is not perfect).
30      - if no meta file, assume that pickup to read corresponds exactly to
31        a pickup that would currently be written.
32      - read pickup written in the old format (until checkpoint59i) if it
33        recognizes an old meta file (no field-list).
34      - add a meta file in exp. which starts from a pickup: 2 cases:
35        a) minimal meta file (with just file precision) + pickupStrictlyMatch=F
36         e.g.: global_ocean.90x40x15/input/pickup.0000036000.meta
37        b) a meta file describing the content of the associated pickup file
38         e.g.: tutorial_global_oce_biogeo/input/pickup.0004248000.meta
39    o pkg/mdsio & pkg/rw:
40      - new routine to read a meta file ; new set of routine to read
41        Multiple-fields file (with meta file).
42    o added open boundary conditions capability for seaice
43        HSNOW, HSALT, UICE, and VICE
44    
45    checkpoint59i
46    o adjoint:
47      * fix multiDimAdvection adjoint
48        (partial recomputation problem by TAF for fVerT(:,:,kDown)
49        and comlev1 size definition (maxpass vs. max. number of tracers)
50      * verification/global_ocean.90x45x15 adjoint now tests
51        NLFS and multiDimAdvection using DST3 (=30)
52      * verification/lab_sea now tests multiDimAdvection using DST3 (=30)
53    o pkg/kpp: add "_d 0" to real constant (if missing);
54      update output of exp: natl_box (10.digits); vermix (std, 7.digits)
55      and lab_sea, 3.FW (only 6,4,6 digits match) & AD (8.digits).
56    o prepare for "clever pickup" implementation: add new header file "RESTART.h"
57      for internal parameters related to restart process (formerly from PARAMS.h)
58      and add startAB parameter to argument list of S/R ADAMS_BASHFORTH2.
59    o more standard interface to {PKG}_WRITE_PICKUP with pickup suffix passed
60      as argument. (only atm2d & obcs write_pickup have not yet been updated)
61    o pkg/monitor:
62      - use GLOBAL_SUM_TILE instead of _GLOBAL_SUM
63      - fix mon_stats_rs (statistics over the full domain, even where field is zero)
64      - account for deep Atmosphere factor and density factor (anelastic)
65    o added open boundary conditions capability for seaice HEFF and AREA
66    o pkg/shelfice: add option for convservative form of Hellmer&Olbers (1989)
67      thermodynamics
68      - requires a little reorganization, which affects the testreport results
69        of isomip.htd (only 7 digits of cg2d agree) => update/modify experiment,
70        so that now the conservative form is tested
71      - add a few comments
72    o add missing cvs Header: or Name: in eesupp/*, pkg/* & verification/code*
73    o add a little bit of code to gad_os7mp_adv_?.F to help vectorization
74    o add new diagnostics to seaice: advective, diffusive fluxes (only for
75      multidim-advection, for scheme 2 they are not filled) and transports,
76      thermodynamic growth rates
77    o change units of EmPmR (inside the code, + within coupling interface)
78      from m/s to kg/m2/s (mass flux) but leave input file unchanged.
79      Affects results @ truncation level (cg2d match) and update output of
80       experiments: lab_sea(6), global_ocean.90x40x15(10),
81      global_ocean.cs32x15(11x3,10), natl_box(11), tutorial_global_oce_latlon(11)
82      + adjoint results: global_ocean_ebm(11) and lab_sea (12).
83      Coupled set-up: allow to restart from previous pickups (cpl_oldPickup=T).
84      Next: will retire convertEmP2rUnit (simply using mass2rUnit instead).
85    
86    checkpoint59h
87    o pkg/exf:
88      - improve vectorization by moving if-statement out of loops in
89        exf_mapfields, exf_radiation
90      - exf_bulkformulae.F: introduce 2D fields and vectorize code
91    o pkg/kpp: added the salt plume scheme (ALLOW_SALT_PLUME) to KPP package
92    o testreport:
93      - allow to test for Qnet & SeaIce monitor output; clean-up ALLOW_BULK_OFFLINE
94        monitor & update offline_exf_seaice exp. output.
95      - AD testing: pass/FAIL according to Grad. output accuracy (instead of Cost)
96    o pkg/seaice:
97      - bug fix in the evp solver: boundary conditions were affected be
98        masking of zMax/zMin (changes results)
99      - minor bug fix in boundary conditions in seaice_calc_strainrates
100        (changes results for no_slip)
101      - seaice_lsr.F: make interpolation of eta dependent on boundaries
102      - replace hardcoded lower limit for zeta (zMin) by runtime parameter
103      - add a test to lab_sea, that tests the Hibler and Bryan (1987) ocean
104        stress formulation and no-slip boundary conditions
105    o pkg/ptracers: Temporary fix for PTRACERS_useGMRedi & PTRACERS_useKPP
106      in gad_calc_rhs.F ; add few safety stops in initialisation phase.
107    o pkg/seaice: a first HSALT time stepping equation has been checked in
108    o pkg/seaice: replaced maskW with seaiceMaskU and maskS with seaiceMaskV
109      in seaice_lsr.F; this solves the pkg/seaice-pkg/obcs problem
110      without requiring DO-IF statements
111    o pkg/thsice:
112      use continuous power-law function for partition of energy between lateral
113      melting/freezing and thinning/thickening ; old code using step function
114      still available with #undef THSICE_FRACEN_POWERLAW
115      update output of exp: aim.5l_cs.thSI, global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn & .thsice
116    o testreport: change AD testing : check against results/output_adm.txt
117      using same scripts as for forward test.
118    
119    checkpoint59g
120    o adjoint testing: in preparation for changing testreport:
121      - output format: cost and grad written on separated lines
122      - ad output results in directory "results" (instead of "results_ad")
123    o pkg/seaice: adding ice salinity HSALT as a prognostic variable
124    o pkg/seaice: changes for using pkg/seaice with pkg/obcs
125    o pkg/ecco: allow user defined cost function contributions
126    o testreport:
127      Allow to choose (per experiment) the list of tested output variables
128       and the main variable (used to issue a pass/FAIL ) ;
129      - for now, done by adding the specific list in file: [exp]/input/tr_checklist
130      - default is unchanged: >cg2d< , (T,S,U,V,5 tracers)_[min,max,mean,StD] ;
131      Also modify printing of summary:
132       a) ">" NN "<" indicates the "main" variable (used for pass/FAIL)
133       b) echo the list of tested variables in the individual summary.txt of
134          each experiment.
135    o new S/R GLOBAL_SUM_TILE to compute global sum independently of number of
136      threads and number of processes (with #define GLOBAL_SUM_SEND_RECV)
137      (but still depend on the tile decompostion of the domain).
138    o pkg/seaice: change a discretization detail to make the B-grid code
139      "more symmetric". This change is likely to remove all "ridges/leads" that
140      where quasi-aligned with the grid in B-grid solutions. It may also be
141      the solution to the stress coupling issues with the B-grid.
142    o each tested exp: add a "run" directory with a standard ".cvsignore" file ;
143      remove .cvsignore from input dir. (since testreport no longer run here).
144    o pkg/thsice:
145     - cleaning: move common block out of "THSICE_2DYN.h" (removed) to "THSICE_VARS.h"
146     - fix reshaping of sea-ice just after advection:
147       melt all the ice only if ice-volume is too small.
148     - re-visit lateral/thinning repartition of melting (modifs from May 04, 2007):
149       prevent lateral melting if sea-ice fraction is too close to iceMaskMin ;
150     and update experiment global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn (+start from pickup files).
151    o external_forcing_surf : extend the use of salt_EvPrRn & temp_EvPrRn (fresh-water
152      tracer content) to linFS or no RealFreshWaterFlux ; default remains unchanged.
153    o define mass2rUnit & rUnit2mass as units conversion factor, used for surface
154      forcing. mass2rUnit: from mass per unit area [kg/m2] to r-coordinate unit
155      (z-coord: =1/rhoConst ; p-coord: =gravity) ; rUnit2mass is just the reverse;
156      and remove horiVertRatio (& recip_horiVertRatio). Affects truncation error
157      of exp. global_oce_in_p: 10 16 16 14 16 13 16 16 16 13 13 13 16 13 13 12 16
158      -> update output.txt
159    o pkg/cd_code: add brackets in multiple terms sum (S/R CD_CODE_SCHEME):
160     this affects truncation error: -> update output.txt of exp:
161      global_ocean.90x40x15 (fw&adm), lab_sea (fw&adm) & lab_sea.lsr,
162      ideal_2D_oce, isomip.htd, natl_box, tutorial_global_oce_latlon.
163    
164    checkpoint59f
165    o pkg/autodiff: zero_adj resets an ajoint variable to zero (in adjoint mode)
166    o pkg/ctrl: ctrl_bound  forces parameter corrections to stay in
167      a bounded range (in forward mode)
168    o pkg/ecco, ctrl, autodiff and mom_common:
169     internal parameter controls, completements of implementations
170    o add few EXCH S/R (UV_BGRID, UV_DGRID, SM) for B & D-Grid velocity & 2nd Moment Sxy.
171    o use UV_BGRID exch for dxV,dyU: for now, only with pkg/exch2 & forward ;
172      (not seem any difference in testing results).
173    o pkg/cd_code: use the right EXCH calls (for CS-grid); but problem remains
174       at face corners.
175    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
176     - in GAD.h, define as parameters (iMinAdvR,iMaxAdvR,jMinAdvR,jMaxAdvR)
177      loop range indices for computing vertical advection tendency
178      and do the calculation in the interior only (no overlap) ;
179      for now, only implemented for SOM advection (to save CPU time).
180     - add argument "withSigns" to S/R FILL_CS_CORNER_TR_RL (needed for SOM_xy moment)
181    o exch2 adjoint
182      First set of changes:
183      - add exch2 hand-written adjoint templates
184      - exch2 hand-written no longer use TAF-flag 'nownew_arg'
185        This will require cleanup in pkg/autodiff/*.F
186        (changed routines currently kept separate in verif. code/)
187      - Comment all relevant #ifndef ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC
188        that used to hide exch2 or cubed-sphere specific code
189        (commented via 'cph-exch2')
190    o pkg/seaice
191      - Close southern and western boundaries for UICE/VICE when useOBCS=.TRUE.
192    o pkg/bulk_force: fix loading into Qsw of Short-Wave flux; and update
193       output of global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice .
194    
195    checkpoint59e
196    o exch2: new S/R that only use the cube-tracer (center-position) exchange:
197      for B-grid vector (not yet tested) and C-grid vector (<- only used
198      when option W2_USE_R1_ONLY in W2_OPTIONS.h is defined).
199    o starting implementation of Duffy et al. (GRL 1999) salt plume scheme
200      (#ifdef ALLOW_SALT_PLUME)
201    o gather_2d/scatter_2d: removed halo regions
202    o gmredi: add option (GM_taper_scheme='fm07') for Ferrari & McWilliams 2007
203      scheme and the corresponding test case (under front_relax dir). For now,
204      only available with Skew-flux form and not yet tested in realistic set-up.
205      adjoint: store directives updated, but gradient checks deteriorated,
206      so maybe GM/Redi adjoint is now broken.
207    o seaice adjoint
208      * add AREA, HEFF, HSNOW as control variable
209        (should not change lab_sea results)
210      * CTRL_OPTIONS.h needs new flag: CTRL_SET_OLD_MAXCVARS_40
211    o pkg/seaice:
212      * added computation of saltFlux in seaice_growth;
213        For time being, sea ice salinity is assumed constant
214        contribution of snow flooding to freshening of sea ice is neglected.
215        SEAICE_salinity is set in SEAICE_PARM01 of data.seaice and it
216        defaults to 0.0 in order to maintain backward compatibility.
217        Typical values for SEAICE_salinity are 4 to 10 g/kg.
218      * replaced dRf(1) with dRf(kSurface)*hFacC(kSurface) in seaice_growth.F
219      * added SEAICE_availHeatFrac, which specifies fraction of surface level
220        heat content used to melt or grow ice
221      * commented out cap of HICE: it helps keep ice thinner
222      * reintroduced cap of HEFF via MAX_HEFF and SEAICE_CAP_HEFF option
223      * applied OBCS T/S mask to HEFFM sea ice mask
224    
225    checkpoint59d
226    o standard name: {PKG}_DIAGNOSTICS_STATE to fill diagnostics array
227     for {PKG} state variables, and called from DO_STATEVARS_DIAGS.
228     (keep {PKG}_DIAGNOSTICS_FILL for non-state variables diagnostics)
229    o pkg/gmredi (gmredi_readparms.F): add some missing "_d 0"
230     and change default value of parameter "GM_Small_Number";
231     update output of exp: lab_sea (x2), cfc_example, global_ocean.90x40x15,
232       global_ocean.cs32x15 (x4), global_ocean_ebm, global_with_exf,  
233       tutorial_global_oce_biogeo, tutorial_global_oce_latlon
234    o pkg/ecco: cost function when applying pkg/smooth to controls
235    o pkg/ctrl: add forcingPrecond run time parameter
236    o pkg/seaice:
237     - replace ZMIN=4.e8 with ZMIN=0. in dynsolver.F as in C-grid code
238     - fix bug in metric terms of u-equation in LSR solver (implicit part),
239       changes verification/lab_sea
240     - rearrange implicit part of u-equation in LSR solver to make it easier to
241       read, understand, and debug. This causes changes at the truncation level.
242     - fix (serious) bug in the boundary conditions (sign error in the implicit
243       part) of the LSR solver. Changes all LSR results.
244     - fixed problem with HSNOW initialization to avoid thick snow when AREA
245       is initilized with small values - does not change lab_sea results.
246     - added HsnowFile initialization capability
247    o pkg/smooth: addition to model/src and pkg/ctrl so allow
248     initialization of pkg/smooth and application to control vector
249    o pkg/seaice: fix another bug in the LSR no-slip boundary conditons
250    o dependencies: pkg/profiles requires pkg/cal
251    o pkg/profiles:
252     - added option ALLOW_PROFILES_GENERICGRID
253         -> pkg/profiles can thus be used with any grid (e.g. cs32x15) assuming
254         that interpolation information (grid points and coefficients) is provided
255         within the netcdf input files.
256         -> sample matlab scripts can be found in MITgcm_contrib/gael
257         that allow you to prepare netcdf input files.
258     - also modified: cleaner include statements, cleaner error print statements,
259       cleaner stops when error, and more tests of the netcdf input files consistency.
260    o additional test (in global_ocean.cs32x15) using seaice+thsice pkgs.
261    o pkg/seaice:
262     - move seaice-diagnostics from seaice_do_diags to do_statevars_diags; this
263       requires a new routine: seaice_diagnostics_fill.F
264     - make sure that seaice does not move if not forced (pressure replacement
265       method, Hibler and Ip, 1995), changes results
266     - and new damping criterion for EVP solver according to Hunke, JCP, 2001
267     - SEAICE_evpDampC = > 0. turns it on (615. is the recommended value).
268       It is turned off by default (=-1.), because it changes the results.
269     - make it possible to read AREA from a file, too.
270    
271    checkpoint59c
272    o add S/R and diagnostics for oceanic mixed-layer depth
273    o move GMRedi call after all vertical mixing schemes (including KPP)
274    o pkg/thsice:
275     - ensure iceMask > iceMaskMin : this problem appeared after May-04 modifs
276      (melt only laterally if thin ice): update output of global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice
277    o pkg/obcs:
278     - bug fix for balance code
279    o pkg/seaice:
280      - allow values of SEAICE_elasticParm > 1
281      - add new parameter SEAICE_evpTauRelax as an alternative
282        to SEAICE_elasticParm
283      - make lsr boundary conditions free slip (by default), changes result
284      - add code for no slip boundary conditions for lsr
285      - set minimum of zeta to zero (and not 4e8) (changes results)
286      - add a cap on AREA after advecting AREA if seaice_growth is not called
287    o change calculation of Visbeck K:
288      - no longer depend on tapering scheme; instead, compute slope (limited
289        by GM_maxSlope). this is equivalent to what was comuted before with
290        clipping or linear tappering.
291      - fix vertical averaging (wrong by 1/2 level)
292      - leave the old version (but will not be maintained) within
293        #ifdef OLD_VISBECK_CALC / #endif
294      - update output of exp. ideal_2D_oce
295    o change error catch in calc_r_star to improve vectorization
296    o exf runoff and seaice: remove ALLOW_SEAICE from exf pkg files and
297      add #define ALLOW_RUNOFF in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h (when not using exf).
298    o adjoint:
299      Re-organized adjoint checkpointing according to Matt Mazloff
300      (but with modifs/completions/cleanups)
301      Storing is now bundled into large arrays to optimized I/O
302      (and second step in cleanup of the_main_loop)
303    
304    checkpoint59b
305    o coupler (pkg/atm_ocn_coupler, pkg/ocn_compon_interf, pkg/atm2d):
306      - export/import (between ocean & coupler) fields needed for ocean DIC.
307    o pkg/seaice:
308      - get rid of three more exchanges seaice_calc_viscosities (required
309        different loop boundaries in seaice_lsr and seaice_ocean_stress)
310      - bug fix in seaice_ocean_stress (update of lab_sea required)
311      - reduce loop boundaries to necessary minimum also in seaice_evp
312      - go back to the old way of computing deltaC/Z as the adjoint likes that
313        better
314    o Refresh of tutorial_global_oce_latlon (includes changing salinity-like
315      passive tracer to an Age Tracer) + update output.txt
316    o pkg/exf:
317      - implement A-grid / C-grid selection for wind-stress input files.
318      - clean-up exf_wind.F (remove us, use wspeed instead ; add wStress)
319      for now, in exf_bulk_largeyeager04.F only :
320      - change implementation for case where windspeed + 2. components wind-stress
321        are read-in. AND use rhoConstFresh to convert evap.
322    o pkg/seaice:
323      - use correct EXCH_UV for wind-forcing (on A-grid).
324      - change SEAICE_OPTIONS.h to limit the number of option combinations (regarding
325        SEAICE_EXTERNAL_FORCING & SEAICE_EXTERNAL_FLUXES); add corresponding stops.
326    o pkg/exf:
327      - default EXF options are now set in EXF_OPTIONS.h (ifndef ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC)
328      EXF_INTERPOLATION:
329      - merge global_with_exf/code version of exf_interp_read.F
330        to the main code ;
331      - Add new option: EXF_INTERP_USE_DYNALLOC to use Dynamical Allocation when
332        reading the file ; Important: This options needs to be defined to recover
333        previous code.
334        otherwise, use fixed size array to read in (size=exf_interp_bufferSize).
335      - no longer loose real*8 precision along the way when using exf_iprec=64.
336  o pkg/seaice: rearrangement of common blocks (really needs more cleaning up)  o pkg/seaice: rearrangement of common blocks (really needs more cleaning up)
337      - change discretisation of evp-solver in order to avoid another exchange
338        (changes lab_sea) and clean up a little
339      - replace SQRT(MAX(deltaC,SEAICE_EPS)) by MAX(SQRT(deltaC),SEAICE_EPS)
340        help the adjoint (this also changes the results slightly)
341      - add a few "_d 0" where they had been missing in seaice_evp.F
342      - cleaning up: remove unused seaice_calc_rhs.F
343  o pkg/exf: some cleaning-up:  o pkg/exf: some cleaning-up:
344    - change various "constants" into runtime parameters    - change various "constants" into runtime parameters
