4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o pkg/seaice/autodiff:
8     - add CPP flag to include clipping of zeta in EVP code;
9       although clipping of zeta is not necessary for EVP and not recommended
10       it was done by default, now clipping is disabled by default
11     - modify computation and store zetaC/Z in seaice_evp for TAF
12     - add CPP-flag SEAICE_ALLOW_CLIPVELS (undefined by default)
13     - change seaice_calc_viscosities/strainraties for better
14       vectorization after AD by TAF
15     - rearrange common blocks in SEAICE.h once again for easier dumps of
16       adjoint output, adjust adcommon.h and g_common.h
17     - change flux form of default advection scheme for better vectorization
18       of adjoint code
19     - modify lab_sea/input.lsr to test the flux form of default advection
20       scheme
21    o autodiff: fix seaice fields in g_common.h (left over from 3 to 1 level
22      transition in checkpoint61r)
23    
24    checkpoint61x
25    o adjoint: adding two new verification experiments
26      * tutorial_global_biogeo: an online dic sensitivity experiment
27        (work with G. Forget)
28      * tutorial_dic_adjoffline: an offline dic sensitivity experiment
29        (an update of the Dutkiewicz et al., 2006 paper)
30      Both use the same CO2FLUX cost function, but different controls
31      Gradient checks look good, but some recomp. could still be traightened out
32      Should add xx_dic control variable to test at some point
33    o model/src:
34      add run-time parameters to check and/or mask initial Temp & Salt
35    o pkg/ptracers:
36      apply zonal filter (if used) to all passive tracers
37    
38    checkpoint61w
39    o adjoint:
40      * update and finish work on adjoint of dic package (G. Forget)
41      * start adjoint of offline package
42      * bug fix for cube-sphere TLM code (active_file_g.F)
43    o tutorial_global_oce_optim:
44      now tested with 4 tiles (change data.grdchk and update output_adm.txt)
45      and add SIZE.h_mpi for MPI testing
46    o pkg autodiff
47     - fix bug in autodiff_restore
48     - make genmake2 remove comments and empty lines from ad_input_code.f in
49       order to reduce file size (new script file remove_comments_sed)
50    o allows to specify vertical profile of vertical viscosity (viscArNr)
51    o pkg autodiff
52      autodiff_ini_model_io: comment out writing of grid information to netcdf
53      files, because at this time the grid fields are a bunch of zeros
54      (this is analogous to ini_mnc_vars.F)
55    o pkg seaice/autodiff:
56     left-over from removing the 3-time-level fields:
57     - small rearrangement of common blocks (SEAICE.h)
58     - fix field declaration in order to get meaningful output in
59       adseaice.*.nc (adcommon.h)
60    o pkg obcs:
61     - go through NH code only if nonHydrostatic=T
62     - fix restart for Orlanski (Hydrostatic; still to fix NH+Orlanski restart)
63     - move call to OBCS_CALC before SEAICE_MODEL which needs seaice-obc fields
64       => Update output of experiment seaice_obcs
65     - useOBCSbalance: code is wrong with multi-tile / proc: add a stop.
66     - fix NH+Orlanski restart (add wvel OBC value in pickup file)
67     - fix restart for useOBCSprescribe + useEXF
68    o pkg ctrl
69     - make obcs as control parameter work also with useSingleCPUio
70     - replace a few sny and snx by Ny and Nx to be consistent with
71       ctrl_set_globfld_x/yz.F
72    o pkg seaice
73     - re-introduce global field frWtrAtm for the case of
74       ALLOW_MEAN_SFLUX_COST_CONTRIBUTION defined (SEAICE.h, seaice_growth.F)
75     - catch the case of an empty filename in seaice_cost_init_fixed.F
76    o pkg ecco:
77     - small bug fixes in the_main_loop
78      . fix order of monitor arguments
79      . change SEAICE_MULTILEVEL to SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY
80      . move include DYNVARS.h up outside the ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC block so
81        that ALLOW_ECCO_FORWARD_RUN works with NONLIN_FRSURF
82     - replace cos(yc*deg2rad) by _rA in cost_mean_heat/saltflux.F, fix the
83       imbalance diagnostics for wmean_h/sflux = 0
84     - add actual values to f_obcsn/s/w/e in ecco_cost_final.F
85     - catch the case of empty filenames in ecco_cost_init_fixed.F
86       and ecco_readparms.F
87     - fix the logic of wsalt=0.and.wsalt2=0 to wsalt=0.or.wsalt2=0 (and theta)
88       to make this statement meaningfull in ecco_cost_weights.F
89    o pkg zonal_filt:
90      - change ZONAL_FILTER S/R interface (allows to filter 2-D fields)
91      - when using rStar, filter uVel*hFacW instead of uVel
92       (tested without topography: fix a Pb of growing instability with NLFS)
93    o pkg/aim/thsice:
94     -Add capacity to read a Q-Flux to be applied in slab-mixed layer thsice_slab_ocean.F
95      (works as SST restoring)
96    o pkg/thsice:
97     -add specific parameter for salt restoring in slab mixed-layer
98       (by default equal to the temperature restoring)
99    
100    checkpoint61v
101    o pkg/kpp:
102     -add double diffusive contributions as a hack, turned off by default
103      for now, and the code can be excluded with a CPP-flag
104      EXCLUDE_KPP_DOUBLEDIFF just as EXCLUDE_KPP_SHEAR_MIX
105     -add a verification experiments to "vermix" to test this code
106    o pkg/mom_common:
107      Move computation of length scales to mom_init_fixed.F (avoid recomputation
108      at each time-steps*levels).
109    o pkg/layers:
110      Created a new package for computing volume fluxes in temperature or
111      [not yet implemented] density layers, e.g. for calculating residual
112      overturning circulations.
113    o pkg/diagnostics:
114      implement a RS type version for the set of DIAGNOSTICS-FILL subroutines
115    o fix few RS/RL type mismatch (check with ifort 11.1 "-warn all" option)
116    o pkg/mdsio (& pkg/rw): rework high level S/R interface:
117      To avoid mixing type (RS/RL) of input/output array argument,
118      replace single mixed-type array with a pair from each type (RS/RL).
119    o setting pickupSuff force to start from a pickup (even if nIter0=0): this
120      is now implemented for all pkgs (previously only done for the main pickup)
121    
122    checkpoint61u
123    o pkg/obcs:
124      - change OB?eta from _RS to _RL and put them into a separate commen block
125      - add code to read OB?eta from a file via obcs_prescribe_read: the code
126        compiles and does not destroy any other experiments, the data is read
127        properly, but the code is not tested in actual applications
128    o ini_mnc_vars.F: if available (ALLOW_CAL), use startTime_1 and 2 to
129      create a meaningful unit attribute for the time coordinate variable
130    o pkg/ebm: add plenty of missing "_d 0" ;
131       update results of experiment global_ocean_ebm (fwd + adjoint tests)
132      Notes: several pieces of code only works for (very) specific set up
133       (domain size, lat range, etc ...); should be documented & stop if one
134       of those assumptions is not meet.
135    o pkg/seaice: add missing "_d 0" in HSNOW initialisation
136       update results of experiments: lab_sea (3 fwd tests + 2 adjoint tests)
137          and offline_exf_seaice (seaicetd + adjoint).
138    o add missing "_d 0" in ShortWave flux penetration (S/R SWFRAC):
139       update results of experiments: lab_sea (4 fwd tests + 3 adjoint),
140        seaice_obcs, global_ocean.cs32x15 (icedyn & thsice) and natl_box (x2).
141    o few changes to pass when compiling with strick checking of arguments
142       across S/R (allow to find few bugs in S/R calls).
143    o pkg/seaice:
144     - seaice_evp: move if-statement out of loop (TEM) at the cost of 11 new
145       2d-fields, for slightly better performance
146    
147    checkpoint61t
148    o pkg/seaice:
149     - remove unused variables in seaice_evp
150     - reduce number of SQRT in seaice_evp and seaice_calc_viscosities
151    o eeset_parms.F, open_copy_data_file.F & ini_parms.F:
152       named file replacing SCRATCH files (for TARGET_BGL & TARGET_CRAYXT):
153       each processor opens a different file (a fix from Matt).
154    o cg2d:
155       use simple EXCH (overlap size = 1 and ignore corners), like in cg3d.F :
156       this reduces number of EXCH calls by 2 when using exch2.
157       For now, keep previous size array for gc2d_nsa.F to avoid Pb with store
158       directives and missing simple EXCH (exch_s3d_rx) adjoint code.
159    o pkg/thsice:
160       add code for Near Infra-Red albedo (from Jeff)
161       (turned on with run-time flag: thSIce_calc_albNIR, in data.ice).
162    o ini_model_io:
163       move (from packages_readparms.F & initialise_fixed.F) to ini_model_io.F
164       MNC & MONITOR initialisation calls; move MNC calls from {pkg}_readparms.F
165       to {pkg}_init_fixed.F for {pkg}= kpp, seaice & shelfice.
166    
167    checkpoint61s
168    o pkg/exch2 (exch2_rxN_cube*):
169       remove last BARRIER (no need to synchronise after getting data from shared
170       buffer (get) as long as any change to buffer (put,recv) is between BARRIER)
171    o change tiling of natl_box (from 2 to 4 tiles) to get it tested with MPI+MTH
172      and generate new output (for the 2 tests) using default rotationPeriod.
173    o pkg/exch2:
174      - always call exch2_*_cube, not exch-1 anymore, if useCubedSphereExchange=F
175        (was already the case with AUTODIFF_EXCH2 defined)
176      - add bj in exch2 arrays and S/R.
177      - can now use pkg/exch2 for regular (non CS) set-up; switch test experiment
178        MLAdjust to exch2 (identical results except with MPI -> truncation diff);
179    o add pkg/longstep for ptracer timestep a multiple of U/V/T/S timestep
180      - adds deltaT argument to the subroutines TIMESTEP_TRACER DWNSLP_APPLY
181        GAD_ADVECTION GAD_CALC_RHS GAD_IMPLICIT_R GAD_SOM_ADVECT
182      - verification experiment natl_box.longstep
183    o build_options: ifort+mpi_aces optfile (following Constantinos advise):
184      allow different versions of ifort (8 or 9) and different versions
185       of mpi (mpich or mpich2) to be used with the same optfile.
186      requires to load a netcdf module and set MPI_INC_DIR (see comments inside
187       optfile). Change testing scripts (example_scripts/ACESgrid) accordingly.
188    o pkg/seaice:
189      fix previous modif (3-level field removed) for old-pickup reading
190    
191    checkpoint61r
192    o pkg/seaice:
193     - clean up the 3-time levels of UICE,VICE,HEFF,AREA in three steps:
194      1. introduce fields for time step (N-1)
195      2. do not use levels 2 and 3 anymore (but keep them)
196      3. replace 3D versions of UICE,VICE,HEFF,AREA by 2D versions. This
197         includes changes to pkg/thsice/thsice_get_velocity.F,
198         model/src/external_forcing_surf.F, pkg/obcs/obcs_apply_seaice.F, and
199         pkg/obcs/obcs_apply_uvice.F.
200     - completely remove code for leap-frog time stepping for second order
201       advection
202     - adjusted adjoint accordingly;
203       gradient checks have improved by an order of magnitude!
204    
205    checkpoint61q
206    o pkg/seaice: fix bug in free slip boundary conditons for LSOR solver
207     - the boundary conditions along open boundaries are unclear, because the
208       associated masks are set to zero and are thus treated as closed when
209       applying the slip-boundary conditions.
210     - move initialisation of grid variables from seaice_init_varia to _fixed
211    o adding doc/diags_changes.txt
212    o model/src:
213      do_the_model_io: rename few pkg S/R which are called from do_the_model_io,
214       to avoid "_diags" naming if no relation to pkg/diagnostics.
215      ini_theta,ini_salt: fix (at least compile the code) reading from NetCDF
216       file and only call PLOT_FIELD_XYZ if debugMode=T.
217      remove few PLOT_FIELD_XY calls outside initialisation.
218      remove few unnecessary BARRIER.
219    o pkg/salt_plume: add SaltPlumeSouthernOcean to allow disabling
220      of salt_plume package in Southern Ocean
221    o pkg/thsice:
222     - fix hOceMxL in overlap (needed for sea-ice advection);
223       update output of experiment global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn.
224    o pkg/seaice:
225     - make the (placeholder-)tracer IceAge a little more meaningful
226      by avoiding ridging of age due to convergent ice flow
227     - add diagnostics for surface temperature, atmospheric and oceanic
228       heat flux, and atmospheric and oceanic ice growth
229    
230    checkpoint61p
231    o eesupp (global_max & global_sum):
232     - add one more element to buffer (start at index 0) for GL_MAX/SUM output;
233     - remove starting & endding barrier (no longer needed)
234    o pkg/mdsio, writelocal:
235       works also in multi-threaded when LOCBIN_IO_THREAD_SAFE is undefined
236       (remove the STOP): uses shared buffer IO to store data from all threads
237       and then let master-thread write nThreads tiles.
238    o pkg/mdsio (read/write field):
239     - tiled IO done in 1 piece (all levels at a time);
240     - new header file "MDSIO_BUFF_3D.h" with 3-D buffers.
241     - multi-threaded: allow to read/write local (non-shared) array
242       (was already working with singleCpuIO ; now works also without);
243       => no longer needs barrier call after reading a file (added inside
244       mds_read/write field).
245     - move barrier calls outside gather/scatter_2d to mds_read/write_field
246    o pkg/obcs/exf
247      - exf_getffieldrec.F: add a few ". _d 0" and
248                            add code to catch the case fldperiod = 0.  
249      - obcs_precribe_read.F: change if statements so that they match
250                              the variable type (_RL)
251      - add a separate exf_iprec_obcs to exf_set_obcs (by default equal to
252        exf_iprec) as part of namelist EXF_NML_01
253    o pkg/mdsio:
254      - read/write tiled (local) files: read/write 1-level tile chunk at a time
255        (instead of segment of length sNx); expected to speed up tiled IO.
256    o pkg/exch2:
257      - take buffer copy from/to array out of S/R exch2_send/recv into new
258        S/R exch2_put/get ; Exch of local variable now works with MPI+MTH
259        (tested by removing commom block statement in SOLVE_FOR_PRESSURE.h).
260      - ad version of send/recv no longer needed (but needs exch2_ad_put/ad_get)
261      - simplify argument list of S/R exch2_get_uv_bounds and exch2_get_scal_bounds
262        (which replaces exch2_get_recv_bounds & exch2_get_send_bounds) by
263        including Topology header file (and common blocks).
264      - implement EXCH_IGNORE_CORNERS in scalar exchange (rx1);
265        remove 2nd exch call in exch2_s3d_rx (no longer needed).
266      - document S/R arg. list (+ update some comments)
267    o pkg/seaice:
268      - added SEAICE_CLIM_AIR code, which permits modulation of surface air
269        temperature and humidity over sea ice based on climatological values.
270      - clean up computation of Hibler+Bryan (1987) stress coupling for the case
271        of LSR (this change is expected to change the results slightly because now
272        it uses slightly difference moduli from the second last LSR solution, but
273        that is more consistent with the stress computations; this part of the code
274        is not tested in the verification experiments)
275      - fix diagnostics for flux of ice in case of B-grid
276      - turn strain rates eij and press into global fields within global
277        common block in SEAICE.h for more straighforward diagnostics
278      - fix diagnostics for principal stress components, press, zeta, eta
279        to give something meaning full
280    o change tiling of global_ocean.cs32x15 (12 tiles, 32x16) and generate
281      new output (all 4 tests) using default rotationPeriod.
282    o pkg KPP:
283      - add flag (LimitHblStable) to avoid limiting BL depth under stable conditions
284      - fix vertical indices in RI_IWMIX (match between KPP grid from 0 to Nr+1
285        and normal grid from 1 to Nr)
286    o Fix computations of L4rdt in mom_calc_visc.F
287    o eesupp:
288      new S/R ALL_PROC_DIE (like EEDIE, without irrelevant threads err msg):
289      should be called before a "stop" if we know that all process are going
290      to stop; if one Proc does call this S/R, will hang in MPI_FINALISE.
291    
292    checkpoint61o
293    o pkg/exch2: change check_depths to issue just a warning (instead of error+stop)
294    o model/src/ini_curvilinear_grid.F:
295       compute angleSin/CosC when they are not read from a file
296    o pkg/seaice:
297       add pseudo time stepping for LSOR
298    o pkg/exch2:
299       temporary fix for exch2_s3d_rx; update results of exp. hs94.cs-32x32x5.impIGW
300    o pkg/seaice:
301       Adding separate sea ice albedo, drag coefficients, and HO in Southern
302       Ocean from those in Arctic Ocean.  See *_south in SEAICE_PARAMS.h
303    o SingleCpuIO:
304       fix bug put before chkp61n (May 11), when more than 2 MPI cpu are used.
305    o pkg/seaice:
306       put exchanged variable in (local) common block for MPI+Multi-Threads
307       to work (necessary with exch1, and for now with exch2 too).
308    o verification: to get more experiments tested with mpi, mth and mpi+mth,
309      change tiling of:
310       aim.5l_Equatorial_Channel, aim.5l_LatLon, dome, exp4, global_ocean.90x40x15,
311       hs94.cs-32x32x5, MLAdjust, offline_exf_seaice & tutorial_plume_on_slope
312      update output of exp:
313       exp4, global_ocean.90x40x15(+.dwslp), MLAdjust(all 5),
314       tutorial_plume_on_slope and hs94.cs-32x32x5 (use default rotationPeriod)
315      + ideal_2D_ocean: use default rotation period + test Global_Sum_SINGLECPU
316                       (note: output.txt generated on faulks using only 1 tile)
317    o eesupp & mdsio (SingleCpuIO):
318     - remove MISSING_TILE_IO (from MDSIO_OPTIONS.h), replaced by run-time
319       parameter "W2_useE2ioLayOut" (read from file "data.exch2").
320       Note: was not effective for globalFile & useSingleCpuIO=F; now fixed.
321     - move MDSIO_SCPU.h (pkg/mdsio) to EEBUFF_SCPU.h (eesupp/inc).
322     - fix GLOBAL_SUM_SINGLECPU when using Exch2; re-use same buffers and same
323       gather/scatter S/R as with SingleCpuIO (=> 1 less 2D global RL array).
324    o pkg/exch2:
325     - new code to set-up W2-Exch2 topology (replace matlab-topology-generator):
326       read parameter file "data.exch2" if it exists; otherwise try default regular
327       cube without blank-tile; new header file "W2_EXCH2_SIZE.h";
328     - update matlab-topology-generator (exch2_setup_cs6_print.m) to be compatible
329       with new code (not to be used, just as a backup solution).
330     - add examples (e.g., for lat-lon-cap_120) of parameter file "data.exch2"
331       in utils/exch2/input.
332    
333    checkpoint61n
334    o eesupp & mdsio (SingleCpuIO):
335      - move mapping to global io-buffer inside gather_2d/scater_2d: this save
336        memory (1 less 2D global RL array); skip 1 buffer copy; and only send/
337        receive real*4 array (instead of real*8) to read/write 32.bit files.
338        (new template for gather_2d/scater_2d, new set of S/R MDS_PASS_R4,8toRL,S
339         and remove new mapping S/R)
340    o pkg/mdsio: in preparation for topology-generator within pkg/exch2:
341      - Change declaration of SingleCpuIO buffer, reduced to only 1 dim.:
342        xyBuffer_size, which is set to W2_ioBufferSize from W2_EXCH2_PARAMS.h
343        when using exch2. Add S/R to map global io-buffer to global model array.
344      - uses exch2_global_Nx,y instead of exch2_domain_nxt,nyt.
345    
346    checkpoint61m
347    o write_utils : change WRITE_1D_R8 to WRITE_1D_RL
348      and add 3 other S/R for other types (R4,R8,RS).
349      Change calls to WRITE_0D/1D_R[4,8,S,L] to match the type of argument.
350    o eesupp/inc/CPP_EEMACROS.h (EXCH & GLOBAL_SUM/MAX macros):
351     - ensure suffix (_R4,_R8,_RS,_RL) correspondance between macro and S/R ;
352     - reduce number of macro definitions (keep only those which are used);
353       can always call directly the corrresponding S/R if needed.
354     - everywhere in the code: change macros (EXCH & GLOBAL_SUM/MAX) suffix
355       _R4/_R8 to _RS/_RL when applied to _RS/_RL variable.
356     Fixed wrong type of arg in:
357       atm2d/put_ocnvars.F cheapaml/cheapaml.F ocn_compon_interf/ocn_apply_import.F
358       ctrl/ctrl_map_ini_ecco.F seaice/seaice_do_diags.F seaice/seaice_model.F
359     To fix: global_sum of var in common block is wrong (multi-threaded) in:
360       dic/dic_atmos.F ebm/ebm_area_t.F ebm/ebm_zonalmean.F sbo/sbo_calc.F
361     To fix: aim_v23/aim_do_co2.F (BARRIER & GLOBAL_SUM within bi,bj loops)
362    o adjustment.cs-32x32x1: test "blank tiles" when compiling with mpi; 2nd
363      "nlfs" mpi test is going to stop when checking for unconnected tile egdes.
364    o eesupp/src: new S/R to stop everyone when 1 (or more) Proc. find an error
365    o pkg/exch2: new S/R EXCH2_CHECK_DEPTHS to check that unconnected tile
366      edges are closed (zero depth); might happen with "blank tiles";
367      for now, disabled if using OBCS.
368    o tools/gemake2: delete modifs from March 27-29 2009 (with option "-mpi":
369      link *_mpi files from "MODS" dir) to return to a strait-forward behavior.
370    o move read_write.F to write_utils.F ; new parameter (maxLengthPrt1D)
371      to reduce length of 1.D array print in STDOUT.
372    o adjustment.cs-32x32x1: changed to oceanic test with 1 continent
373      + use 48 tiles (16x8): this will allow to test "blank tiles".
374    o start to test MPI + multi-threaded (change testreport to skip tests
375      where number of tiles do not match).
376    o genmake2: add option "-omp" to turn on Open-MP ;
377      passed to testreport (if using -mth) ; merge few (*+mth) optfiles.
378    o pkg/exch2 (+ utils/exch2): ignore blank tiles (instead of removing them)
379      and keep the original tile numbering. Note: compatible with old
380      W2_EXCH2_TOPOLOGY.h & w2_e2setup.F topology files.
381    
382    checkpoint61l
383    o Overlaps had been forgotten in calculating ijk keys : fixed
384    o fix cyrus makedepend for gcc 4.4
385    o experiment fizhi-cs-aqualev20:
386      switching to new version of S/R GETPWHERE (#define TRY_NEW_GETPWHERE)
387      and generate new output. Note: new output is much closer to the old
388      one (v1.8) generated with pgf77 -O2 on Mar 14 2007 than it is from
389      the previous one (v1.9) generated with pgf77 -O0 on Jun 13 2007.
390    o pkg/fizhi:
391     - change to avoid indices going deliberately over array-bounds
392     - remove unnecessary MPI stuff
393     - perpetual spring equinox with "#define FIZHI_USE_FIXED_DAY"
394     - new version of S/R GETPWHERE available with #define TRY_NEW_GETPWHERE:
395       does not go over array-bounds and therefore returns reliable output.
396     - in fizhi_driver.F & fizhi_turb.F, fix "get_alarm" calls:
397       this S/R has 4 output arguments, which are used inside "get_alarm";
398       when it is called with the same variable "ndum" in place of several
399       output arguments, this produces weird side effect inside "get_alarm"
400      (e.g., datein=dates(n) is overwritten by timein=times(n) since both
401       datein & timein, resp. 2nd and 3rd arg., are pointed to the same "ndum"
402       address) and produces error.
403    o tools/gemake2: (March 27-29 2009)
404      with option "-mpi": link *_mpi files from "MODS" dir (this is what
405      testreport does).
406    o lab_sea experiment: change from 2x1 tiles to 2x2 tiles and regenerate output
407    o pkg/seaice: fix bug in new version of S/R SEAICE_LSR.F:
408       update lab_sea.lsr & lab_sea.salt_plume results
409    o pkg/seaice:
410      Major overhaul of the LSOR solver: change discretization from original
411      finite differences to finite volume. The old routine is still in the
412      file seaice_lsr.F and can be turned on with the CPP-flag
413      SEAICE_OLD_AND_BAD_DISCRETIZATION
414      Along with this change, the discretization of the strain rates is changed.
415      The same flag turns on the old discretization in seaice_calc_strainrates.F
416      All verification experiments with seaice are affected (except for
417      seaice_exf_offline); global_ocean.cs32x15/input.icedyn recovers the old
418      results by setting the above flag.
419      Further changes involve changes in defaults:
420      - ALLOW_FLOODING is defined and turned on by default
421      - SEAICEadvSnow = .true. is now the default
422      - SEAICEadvSalt = .true. is now the default
423      - SEAICEadvAge  = .true. is now the default
424      - SEAICE_clipVelocities  = .false. is now the default
425                                         (as per J. Zhang's recommendation)
426      - B-grid, and thus not tested: SEAICE_TEST_ICE_STRESS_1/EXPLICIT_SSH_SLOPE
427        is defined, SEAICE_TEST_ICE_STRESS_1 is renamed into SEAICE_BICE_STRESS
428      - seaice_growth: replace computation of UG by a simple copy from wspeed
429    
430    checkpoint61k
431    o pkg/seaice: a few bug fixes mostly concerning the metric terms:
432      seaice_lsr: fixed a few metric terms,
433                  affects lab_sea.lsr, lab_sea.salt_plume, seaice_obcs
434                  add more debugging diagnostics
435      seaice_evp: removed superfluous many metric terms of FV discretization
436                  of stress divergence
437                  affects lab_sea, lab_sea.hb87
438      seaice_ocean_stress: removed superfluous many metric terms of FV discretization
439                  of stress divergence for non-evp solver
440                  (this part is not tested anywhere)
441      seaice_calc_strainrates: fixed a bug in no-slip boundary conditions,
442                  they were effectively only half slip
443                  affects lab_sea.hb87
444      updated all relevant verification experiments (except lab_sea//output_adm.txt
445        which was left over, but fails at level 7 & 6)
446    
447    checkpoint61j
448    o pkg/seaice: turn a few hard wired parameters into run time parameters
449    o pkg/seaice/exf/monitor: turn netcdf coordinate variable T into model
450      time in seconds as promised by the usints in seaice_monitor and exf_monitor
451    o pkg/mnc: fix the coordinate variables for multi-tile curvi-linear grids
452      that are not cubed-sphere grids
453    o pkg/seaice: fix a bug for the rare case of SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR
454    o pkg/ctrl:
455      fix bug in ctrl_depth_ini.F (EXCH_XYZ was applied to 2-D field xx_r_low)
456    o non-hydrostatic (calc_gw.F):
457      fix viscA4 on CS-grid + fix diagnostics: Wm_Diss & Wm_Advec
458      update output of exp. global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4
459    o remove backward compatibility for thetaMin,phiMin
460      (replaced by xgOrigin,ygOrigin on Jan 27, 2009)
461    o pkg/exf: fix a serious bug in exf_set_uv.F: do a rotation of the
462      interpolated wind field not only for curvilineargrid=.true., but also
463      for a rotated grid (rotateGrid=.true.)
464    o pkg/exf: add capability to bypass interpolation for runoff
465      by setting yet another CPP-flag
466    o eesupp/src, B-grid exchange:
467      add simple (6 tiles, non MPI) CS exch + standard interface S/R.
468    o autodiff
469      new CPP option ALLOW_TAMC_SINGLEPREC_COMLEV
470      allows to switch to single-prec common blocks;
471      corresponding switch occurs in tamc.h, integer isbyte
472      TAF store directivs "byte" and "kind" seem equivalent;
473      Most tamc.h have been updated correspondingly.
474    
475    checkpoint61i
476    o autodiff:
477      fix autodiff_sore/_restore indices for obcs
478      (spotted by I. Hoteit, M. Mazloff)
479    o pkg/autodiff, pkg/ctrl:
480      Add flag to reduce all tapelev I/O to single-prec.
481      In data.ctrl set
482        doSinglePrecTapelev = .TRUE.
483    o model/src/ini_curvilinear_grid.F, new grid-file format without EXCH2:
484      check in hack for SX8 compiler (for dxV, dyU); remove it afterwards.
485    o pkg/shelfice: fix bug with SHELFICEconserve flag, prepare for
486      real fresh water flux (not yet)
487    o pkg/mdsio & rw:
488     - add argument & option to S/R MDS_WRITEVEC_LOC (avoid Open/Close & write-meta)
489     - add simple interface S/R to MDS_WRITEVEC_LOC in pkg/rw: WRITE_GLVEC_RX.
490    o pkg/flt:
491     - replace FLT_INIT by 3-steps standard initialization S/R: readparms,
492       init_fixed & ini_varia.
493     - clean-up & simplify linear interpolation S/R:
494       move flt_bilinear.F -> flt_interp_linear.F ; add arg. myThid.
495     - fix some indices (mainly vertical index) ; add IMPLICIT NONE.
496     - more efficient I/O, using new options of MDS_WRITEVEC_LOC S/R.
497     - add vert. coordinate & horiz. indices to output files.
498     - change vertical position in initial condition, from index to depth [m].
499     - store horizontal (decimal) indices i,j in common block (instead of coord. x,y)
500       (easier to get to a curvilinear grid) ; delX,delY no longer used.
501    o pkg/ggl90: a few modifications:
502     - fix bottom boundary condition, and interpolation of KappaE
503       near top and bottom
504     - use same set of viscosity/diffusivity for TKE/momnetum/tracer
505     - add smoothing option as in Blanke and Delecluse (1993) (--> ALLOW_GGL90_SMOOTH)
506     - add a few options for mixing-length upper limit (--> mxlMaxFlag)  
507    o rename thetaMin,phiMin -> xgOrigin,ygOrigin
508      (maintain temporary backward compatibility, until next checkpoint)
509    
510    checkpoint61h
511    o pkg/diagnostics with "periodic averaging diagnostics":
512      fix S/R DIAGNOSTICS_COUNT ; hack diagnostics_out.F to get NetCDF output.
513    o pkg/my82: add missing "_d 0" ; update output of exp. vermix.my82
514    o pkg/obcs: fix loop ranges for balancing code
515    o pkg/flt:
516     - improve criteria for finding which tile owns a float.
517     - fix FLT_EXCH for case without MPI ; apply cyclic BC + fix also the MPI case.
518    o Add well-mixed CO2 box in aim_v23 (which includes changes in pkg
519      aim_compon_interf, ocn_compon_interf, gchem, and dic to get coupling
520      with ocean biogeo)
521    o pkg/flt:
522     - do some cleaning and fix the restart ;
523     - add output.txt in flt_example/results to get this pkg tested.
524    o genmake2: add an EXTENDED_SRC option and flag.
525       for now, cannot be turned on on command line (only through genmake_local)
526    o pkg/mdsio: read/write vector:
527     - singleCpuIO: fix RL/RS in MDSWRITEVECTOR by calling new S/R MDS_BUFFERtoRL/RS
528     - singleCpuIO=F: fix arrType & filePrec & _BYTESWAPIO in both MDSREADVECTOR
529       & MDSWRITEVECTOR by calling new S/R MDS_RD/WR_VEC_RL/RS.
530     - affects gradient of test-exp "bottom_ctrl_5x5" (not due to _BYTESWAPIO)
531      (drop to 4 digits matching for grad). But this test does not look very
532      reliable (was already failling on eddy, fc5, at 6.digits). Update output.
533    
534    checkpoint61g
535    o pkg/flt:
536      - move FLT_CPPOPTIONS.h to FLT_OPTIONS.h (standard name)
537       + make OPTIONS file more standard.
538      - rename S/R MDSREADVECTOR_FLT to FLT_MDSREADVECTOR (to mach src file name)
539      - fix _BYTESWAPIO CPP-Flag
540      - standard reading of file-parameter "data.flt"
541      - fix argument list of S/R FLT_RESTART
542      still need to fix _BYTESWAPIO in pkg/mdsio/mdsio_writevector.F
543    o pkg/obcs: fix a CPP-flag, bug reported by Jeff Blundell
544    o gather_2d.F/scatter_2d.F: suppress vectorisation on NEC SX in respond to
545      a still unfixed compiler/optimization bug
546    
547    checkpoint61f
548    o pkg/seaice, LSR solver: fix bug in GLOBAL_MAX calls ;
549      update results of global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn test.
550    o move getcon.F from model/src to pkg/fizhi.
551    o pkg/exf: add parameter for extrapolation of temp up to the surface
552       and option to prevent negative evap (in bulk_largeyeager04 only).
553    o Prather Advection scheme: fix tracer conservation for divergent flow
554      (e.g., when using NonLin Free-Surface).
555    o kpp: retire KPPmld diagnostics --> use MXLDEPTH instead
556    o gmredi (Visbeck-variable-K):
557     - add more parameters to Visbeck-variable-K.
558     - use a 5 points average for dSigmaR in Visbeck-K calculation
559       (more "homogenous": same stencil and same weights as in dSigmaH)
560     - update output of ideal_2D_oce experiment.
561    o fix CPP-flag REAL4_IS_SLOW, when _RS expands into real*4
562      (#undef REAL4_IS_SLOW)
563     - pkg/mnc/mnc_cw_cvars.F: write _RS-grid variable as netcdf-real*4
564       coordinate variable
565     - pkg/monitor/monitor.F: call mon_printstats_rs for _RS variables
566       (surface forcing fields), removes some of the functionality
567     - model/src/write_grid.F: write _RS variables as RS-netcdf variables
568     - model/src/diags_oceanic_surf_flux.F: fix a few diagnostics, but
569       probably not all: copy _RS surface flux fields to RL field before
570       calling DIAGNOSTICS_FILL
571     - model/inc/CPP_EEMACROS.h: make the _EXCH_*_RS macros expand into
572       real*4 (CALL EXCH_*_RS) versions.
573     - tested in 2 experiments: inverted_barometer & solid-body.cs-32x32x1
574       (generate new output).
575    
576    checkpoint61e
577    o gmredi (Visbeck-variable-K):
578      - fix the "OLD_VISBECK_CALC" option + move the #undef to GMREDI_OPTIONS.h
579      - change computation of Visbeck-K where Slope > Smax :        
580        now: N*min(Slope,Smax) (similar to OLD_VISBECK_CALC with gkw91 taperFct)
581        previously was: M*sqrt(min(Slope,Smax)) ; update ideal_2D_oce output.
582    o bottom-drag in P-coord.: change units of bottomDragLinear & bottomDragQuadratic
583      to be the same as with Z-coord. (i.e., m/s & no-units respectively).
584    o calc_viscosity: fix index range (was wrong for CD-Scheme & explicit Visc)
585    o pkg gmredi, linear & fm07 tapering: put an upper limit on Slope^2 so that Kwz
586      does not become too large (to avoid precision problems in implicit-diffusion
587      solver); update ideal_2D_oce output.
588    o pkg ggl90:
589      - in ggl90_cal.F: compute only one set of visc/diff, used to
590        step forward TKE/T/S/momentum
591      - default value of GGL90viscMax/GGL90diffMax larger and equal (to
592        have Prandlt =1)
593    o gmredi (fm07):
594      - add lower limit on Transition layer thickness + lower limit on 1/lambda
595      - allow to set few more params from data.gmredi
596    o pkg ggl90:
597          - add missing sqrt(2) factor in computation of mixing length
598            scale in ggl90_calc.F
599            (see Eq. (2.35) in Blanke and Delecluse, JPO, 1993)
600    
601    checkpoint61d
602    o adjoint modifs
603      - adapt to new field rhoInSitu
604      - allow to revert from StoreDynVars2D, StoreDynVars3D
605        to individual fields
606        (switches AUTODIFF_USE_OLDSTORE_2D, AUTODIFF_USE_OLDSTORE_3D)
607    o store 3-D (in-situ) density in commom block (DYNVARS.h)
608     - save 1 rho computation.
609     - no longer modify T & S inland when using down_slope pkg.
610    o gad_som : allow to switch to SOM advection for T & S without corresponding
611      pickup files (using new S/R: MDS_CHECK4FILE).
612    o keep removing _BEGIN/_END_MASTER between MDSIO S/R call
613      (for useSingleCpuIO to work in multi-threaded)
614    o pkg/shelfice:
615     - disentangle parameters: retire shelfIceFile in data/PARM05 and substitute
616       with SHELFICEtopoFile in data.shelfice
617     - move code for reading ice shelf topography and modifying hFacC into separate
618       subroutines of the shelfice package
619     - separate initialisation of "fixed" and "variable" variables
620     - kTopC is not (yet) replaced by kSurfC, although this is possible
621    o fix broken diagnostic SIatmFW and changed the units from m/s to kg/m^2/s
622    o add initialisation of deepFac if using Pcoords (new S/R set_grid_factors)
623      and rename:
624      ini_phiref.F          --> set_ref_state.F  (+ set anelastic factors)
625      ini_reference_state.F --> load_ref_files.F (- set anelastic factors)
626    o change FIND_RHO_SCALAR : return rho (instead of rho - rhoConst)
627    
628    checkpoint61c
629    o add option ALLOW_ADDFLUID and run-time selector "selectAddFluid"
630      to add mass source/sink of fluid in the interior (3-D generalisation
631      of oceanic real-fresh water flux).
632    o pkg/monitor: fix recip_dr argument in mon_advcflw2 call (-> advcfl_W_hf_max)
633    o vermix test experiment: switch from LINEAR EOS to MDJWF (not tested before)
634    o new pkg: down_slope
635      density-driven downsloping flow parameterisation (Tellus, 1999, 412-430).
636      - presently, modify T & S inland (dwnslp_calc_rho.F).
637        can be avoided if rho was stored in common bloc and used in calc_phi_hyd.
638      - implementation for ocean in P-coords not tested.
639      - add secondary test to global_ocean.90x40x15 (input.dwnslp) to check this pkg.
640    o move kSurfC,kSurfW & kSurfS from SURFACE.h to GRID.h (next to kLowC)
641      (to facilitate conversion of oceanic pkg to p-coordinate).
642    o change FIND_RHO to FIND_RHO_2D :
643      pass arguments tFld & sFld as local (tile) 2D-arrays ; +fix EOS_CHECK.
644    o new pkg: cheapaml
645    
646    checkpoint61b
647    o exch2:
648      change index bounds in rx2_cube exchanges (new S/R: EXCH2_GET_UV_BOUNDS)
649      - no longer depend on the order sequence (N,S,E,W).
650      - 3rd exchange no longer needed (tested with 24 tiles).
651      - same modif to hand-written adjoint S/R (global_ocean.cs32x15: zero diff)
652      - exch_UV_A-grid readily available (but not yet tested).
653      comment out 3rd exch call and remove copy of V to U at SE & NE face-corners
654      (both are no longer needed) in exch_uv: no effect in forward run; but
655       get truncation error differences with adjoint exch.
656    o exch2:
657     - change index-bounds storage (moved from target to local tile,
658       more intuitive this way) ; rename/remove some variables.
659     - change utils/exch2/matlab-topology-generator & code_mods accordingly.
660    
661    checkpoint61a
662    o exch2/matlab-topology-generator:
663      fix bug in index bounds for N-S internal exchange (hard to tell if this
664      had any effect on the solution).
665    o pkg/mnc: small fix in mnc_handle_err: make sure that length of msgbuf
666      is exceeded
667    o testreport: modify syntax of awk, so that it works also with
668      awk, and not only with nawk and gawk
669    
670    checkpoint61
671    o autodiff
672      Change default for TAF usage by removing argument '-nonew_arg'
673      This changes TAF subroutine argument list (ordering of active var.)
674      Omission of this flag leads to incompatibility w.r.t. TAMC
675      To restore TAMC-compatibility, need following modifs:
676      * use adoptfile tools/adjoint_options/adjoint_tamc_compatibility
677      * use CPP option #define AUTODIFF_TAMC_COMPATIBILITY
678      Tested TAF version is 1.9.22
679      N.B.: exch2 hand-written adjoint code currently not TAMC compatible
680    
681    checkpoint60
682    --->>> This is the last checkpoint for which generating the adjoint
683    --->>> is done via the TAMC-compatibility TAF-flag "-nonewarg"
684    --->>> by default.
685    --->>> Future checkpoints will ommit this flag by default.
686    o pkg/generic_advdiff, os7mp: simplify and avoid division by zero.
687    o pkg/grdchk: Add gradient check to etan0 perturbations.
688    o pkg/exf: read ice area from file (#ifdef ALLOW_ICE_AREAMASK).
689    o pkg/autodiff: more flexibility in zeroadj.
690      model/src: modifying do_oceanic_phys.F accordingly.
691    o pkg/ctrl: Bounds for (kapgm,kapredi,eddypsi) parameter estimation.
692    o model/src and pkg/gmredi: GMREDI_WITH_STABLE_ADJOINT CPP option
693      special setup of gmredi for which the adjoint is stable
694      enough for parameter optimization.
695    o bridging the gap between eddy stress and GM.
696      -> eddyTau is replaced with eddyPsi (eddyTau = f x rho0 x eddyPsi)
697          along with a change in CPP option (now ALLOW_EDDYPSI).
698      -> when using GM w/ GM_AdvForm:
699          The total eddy streamfunction (Psi = eddyPsi + K x Slope)
700          is applied either in the tracer Eq. or in momentum Eq.
701          depending on data.gmredi (intro. GM_InMomAsStress).
702      -> ALLOW_EDDYPSI_CONTROL for estimation purpose.
703      The key modifications are in model/src/taueddy_external_forcing.F
704      pkg/gmredi/gmredi_calc_*F pkg/gmredi/gmredi_*transport.F
705    
706    checkpoint59r
707    o new S/R (pkg/mdsio/mdsio_facef_read.F) reading of sNx+1 x sNy+1 array
708      from per-face file (take S/R READSYMTILE_RS out of ini_curvilinear_grid.F);
709      fix option to read coriolis(@ cell-corner) from files with CS-grid.
710    o pkg/mnc: add some attributes to standard 1D-coordinate variables
711    o pkg/diagnostics: enforce missing_value attribute for scalar variables at
712      mass points, when using mnc for output
713      - add runtime parameter (missing_value, missing_value_int) to override
714        default (which is the value of getcon('UNDEF'))
715    o pkg/mnc: prepare mnc for the actual use of missing values with the
716      diagnostics package: small fix in mnc_cw_readwrite.template and more
717      initialisation of never used fields
718      - replace mnc_common.h and mnc_id_header.h with corresponding upper case
719      versions
720    o pkg/thsice/thsice_ini_vars.F added default initial values so that
721      thermodynamics sea ice solver does not blow up when some initial fields
722      are missing.
723    o move from external_forcing_surf.F to ini_forcing.F
724      the p-coord. hack consisting in using pLoad to set phi0surf ;
725      update output of tutorial_global_oce_in_p (affected @ truncation level).
726    o Freshen up a bit hs94.1x64x5, notably:
727      remove rotationPeriod and tRef=5*0. (adjoint only), and add
728      exactConserv=.TRUE.
729    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
730      change option GAD_ALLOW_SOM_ADVECT to GAD_ALLOW_TS_SOM_ADV which only
731      applies to files where Temperature & Salinity 2nd Order moments are used.
732    o pkg/ptracers: add second-order moment advection schemes (80 and 81);
733      this uses a dynamically allocated internal state data structure
734      (#define PTRACERS_ALLOW_DYN_STATE in PTRACERS_OPTIONS.h)
735      and requires a fortran 90 compiler
736    
737    checkpoint59q
738    o pkg/mom_vecinv: Add energy & enstrophy conserving scheme (selectVortScheme=3)
739       (from Sadourny, described by Burridge & Haseler, ECMWF Rep.4, 1977)
740    o Refresh tutorial_global_oce_biogeo, notably:
741      - change bathymetry (put back seamounts in ACC, use hFacs)
742      - change EOS (POLY3 --> JMD95Z)
743      - use Bryan-Lewis vertical diffusivity
744      - use multidimensional advection
745      - remove old virtual virtual in dic pkg, now done through ptracer pkg
746      - change a couple of parameters in dic pkg
747    o pkg/ctrl: change formula in adctrl_bound.F and add a parameter to ctrl_map_ini_gen.F
748    o pkg/obcs: change default to OBCSfixTopo = .true.,
749      - set OBCSfixTopo=.false. in exp4/input/data.obcs to reproduce old result
750      - replace "debugMode" with "debugLevel .GE. debLevB"
751    o implementation of TAF directives for gchem,cfc,dic
752    o remove "exp5" (replaced by tutorial_deep_convection).
753    o pkg/obcs: add code to fix topography gradients normal to open boundaries;
754      this requires computing the index fields OB_Jn/Js/Ie/Iw in obcs_readparms;
755      the code can be turned on by setting OBCSfixTopo = .true. in data.obcs
756      --> changes results in exp4, seaice_obcs
757    o tutorial_deep_convection :
758      update the set-up and increase resolution and domain size ; start
759      from pseudo initial conditions = output at t=120mn in order to see
760      something happening when running testreport.
761    o pkg/seaice: add os7mp as an advection scheme
762                  add check for advection schemes
763                  add a flag for restoring T and S underneath sea ice
764    o pkg/my82: add netcdf-support and diagnostics
765    o thsice pkg:
766      - Now hsMax limits snow height by turning it into ice following
767        flooding scheme (and now conserving energy)
768      - Slight rewriting of the formula in thsice_calc_thick.F
769      - Parameter rhowi eliminated to be replaced by floodFac = (rhosw-rhoi)/rhos
770      --> changes results of global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn and global_ocean.cs32x15.thsice
771    
772    checkpoint59p
773    o gchem / dic / cfc :
774      - add useDIC, useCFC , read from "data.gchem" (& hold in GCHEM.h);
775      - add new parameter files: "data.dic" & "data.cfc" ;
776      - various re-arrangement in initialisation & header file ;
777      - fix tutorial_global_oce_biogeo for multi-threaded test.
778    o pkg/dic: test for "pickup_dic" file when restarting ;
779      if no pickup-file, can restart with a re-initialised pH (same as it did
780      before) providing pickupStrictlyMatch is set to False.
781    o change argument list of S/R PTRACERS_WRITE_PICKUP & MYPACKAGE_WRITE_PICKUP
782      + fix call to S/R GGL90_WRITE_PICKUP & DIC_WRITE_PICKUP
783    o add a "warning" (to Error msg file) when an Active Tracer is not using AB-2
784      and staggerTimeStep is off (needed for stability of Internal-wave dynamics).
785    o move out of PARAMS.h & data the last pieces of old-ptracer code: tauTr1ClimRelax,
786     & lambdaTr1ClimRelax ; put those 2 params in PTRACERS_PARAMS.h & data.ptracers
787       (note: not clear to me what lambdaTr1ClimRelax is still used for ...)
788    o pkg/mom_vecinv: - new parameter "selectVortScheme" to select which
789       scheme to use for vorticty-term ;
790     - compute upwindVorticity=T case within mom_vi_u/v_coriolis_c4.F
791       (with default selectVortScheme, return to original discretisation)
792     - remove weird combination (e.g.: upwindVorticity & highOrderVorticity)
793    o pkg/seaice: add a line to the summary to indicate grid type (B/C)
794    o in mom_calc_visc, fix average value of viscAh_W & viscA4_W next to the
795      bottom ; only used with variable horizontal viscosity and non-hydrostatic.
796      also fix diagnostics VISCAHW & VISCA4W.
797    
798    checkpoint59o
799    o dome/code/obcs_calc.F: avoid division by zero (detected using gfortran).
800    o change the loop ordering in most gad_*_adv_x.F to improve vectorization:
801      move a few statemens out the main loop into separate loops
802    o pkg/shelfice:
803      - sort out freshwater flux; convert freshwater fluxes to mass fluxes
804        (kg/m^2/s), does not break tests, because in verification/isomip,
805        rhoConstFresh=rhoConst (by accident)
806      - rearrange computation of tLoc, sLoc, pLoc to make code more efficient
807      - move S/R find_rho_scalar, pkg/ecco/sw_ptmp.F, pkg/ecco/sw_adtg.F into
808        new file model/src/seawater.F, so that they are available for all pkgs.
809      - convert potential temperature into in-situ temperature. This changes the
810        isomip tests => update tests
811    o add a flag writePickupAtEnd (default=true) to be able to suppress
812      writing a pickup at the last timestep
813    o tools/mpack-1.6 :
814      - disable automake (not working) and autoconf (not needed).
815      - update to version 1.6.4 which fix MD5 code on some 64 bits platforms
816        also cleaner with much less compilation warnings.
817    o pkg/profiles:
818      rename profiles_interp_mean_genericgrid as profiles_interp_mean_gg
819      (for "less than 32 characters name" compiler requirement)
820    o pkg/obcs and pkg/exf: added capability to specify seaice open boundary
821      conditions that have a different sampling frequency than S/T/U/V obcs
822    o pkg/diagnostics (stats-diags):
823      - fix global Min/Max in case 1 processor get only empty tiles
824    o genmake2: replace (4 times)
825         make genmake_tc_1.o >> genmake_warnings 2>&1
826      with
827         COMM="$CC $CFLAGS -c genmake_tc_1.c"
828         echo $COMM >> genmake_warnings
829         $COMM >> genmake_warnings 2>&1
830      to make genmake2 always see the value of CC as specified in the optfile.
831    o generic_advdiff: - prather advection scheme (SOM) coded for CS-grid.
832      - add diagnostics for 1srt & 2nd Order moments and sub-grid variance.
833      - modify verification advect_cs test to test SOM-advection on CS-grid.
834    o pkg/ctrl:
835      - Rewrite of ctrl_map_ini_ecco.F,
836        introducing a generic routine (ctrl_map_ini_gen.F).
837      - Modification of ctrl_bound/adctrl_bound handling control vector bounds.
838    
839    checkpoint59n
840    o pkg/diagnostics: for large number of diagnostics, store diagnostic mate
841      number in dedicate array "hdiag":
842      - new version of S/R DIAGNOSTICS_ADD2LIST : DIAGNOSTICS_ADDTOLIST
843        with 1 more argument (mate number); modify old version DIAGNOSTICS_ADD2LIST.
844      - many small changes (integer format) for large number of diagnostics
845      - start to use DIAGNOSTICS_ADDTOLIST (necessary for diagnostics with
846        a counter mate) in pkg diagnostics, ptracers, thsice & aim_v23.
847    o add parameter rotateGrid and Euler angles EulerPhi/Theta/Psi. For
848      usingSphericalGrid, this allows to define the rotated grid coordinates
849      via phiMin/thetaMin/dxSpacing/dySpacing, etc., but then re-compute the
850      geographical coordinates according to the inverse of the rotation defined
851      by the Euler angles, so that Coriolis parameter and online-interpolation by
852      exf works with the geographical coordinates on XC/YC/XG/YG.
853      Naturally, this feature does not work with all packages, so some
854      combinations are prohibited in config_summary (flt, flt_zonal, ecco,
855      profiles), because there the coordinates are assumed to be regular
856      spherical grid coordinates.
857    o pkg/gmredi,ctrl,ecco,autodiff,grdchk and model/src,inc:
858      - introduce isopycnal diffusion coefficient control.
859    o tools/adjoint_options:
860      - additional control vector components.
861    o pkg/mnc: have mnc create marginally meaning full coordinate variables
862      (that is the grid indices) if usingCurvilinearGrid and NOT EXCH2
863    o pkg/mypackage:
864      - add example of read/write pickup for state-var ;
865      - add entry points to the main code for state-vars diags & write-pickup.
866    o pkg/exf: rewrite of exf_getffieldrec.F to properly deal with year
867      transitions for useExfYearlyFields
868      - add new subroutine that determines the file to read from for
869        use*YearlyFields = .TRUE. and .FALSE.
870      - add a verification experiment to global_with_exf that tests
871        useExfYearlyFields with USE_EXF_INTERPOLATION defined
872    o pkg/obcs/exf: add useOBCSYearlyFields (=.FALSE.) to obcs with exf in
873      analogy to useExfYearlyFields; rearrange obcs_prescribe_read: two new
874      subroutines (which could be generated from a template, because they are
875      almost identical), for now they are included in obcs_prescribe_read.F for
876      simplicity
877    o pkg/exf:
878      - add a little more diagnostic to exf_interp_read (in analogy to
879        mds_read_field, can be turned off with debugLevel < debugLevA=1)
880      - improve vectorizability of exf_interp for TARGET_NEC_SX, makes code
881        ugly but fast by unrolling short inner loops, inserting a unroll=8
882        directive in routine lagran, and splitting a loop and making do while the
883        outermost loop (the latter requires the intoduction of index arrays)
884    o pkg/obcs: replace obcs_apply_area/heff/hsalt/hsnow with obcs_apply_seaice
885    o pkg/seaice: moved DIFFERENT_MULTIPLE from seaice_model to seaice_dynsolver
886      http://forge.csail.mit.edu/pipermail/mitgcm-devel/2008-January/003173.html
887    o verification/seaice_obcs: updated for restart test and latest options
888    o pkg/seaice: add a new flag SEAICEuseTEM to use a slightly different
889      ice rheology (so-called truncated ellipse, that gets rid of tensile stress);
890      for now this is only available for the C-grid code and also within
891      #ifdef SEAICE_ALLOW_TEM, because this option may slow down the EVP code
892    
893    checkpoint59m
894    o pkg/seaice: use different time constant for melting (SEAICE_gamma_t)
895      and freezing (SEAICE_gamma_t_frz) ice due to mixed layer temperature
896    o gad_som : fix flux output (& diagnostics) to have same units as other  
897      advection scheme fluxes (was previously multiplied by deltaT).  
898    o added verification/seaice_obcs both to test seaice open boundaries
899      and to provide an example matlab scrpt for generating them
900    o added verification/lab_sea/input.salt_plume for testing pkg/salt_plume
901    o pkg/salt_plume: clean up salt_plume_frac.F to
902      remove redundancy in PlumeMethod 1 and 4
903    o pkg/kpp: added saltplume diagnostics
904    o pkg/obcs and pkg/seaice:
905      - do not set uice and vice to zero when OB*icefile are unspecified
906      - OBCS_SEAICE_AVOID_CONVERGENCE is undefined by default
907      - moved seaice tracer obcs after call to seaice_growth
908    o pkg/salt_plume: added various options for salt plume depth
909      criterion and for vertical distribution of the salt
910    
911    checkpoint59l
912    o pkg/ptracers: new version of ptracers pickup:
913      read meta file and write only fields which are needed to restart.
914      ( same logic as main pickup file ; also using pickupStrictlyMatch )
915    o pkg/seaice:
916      - add timescale for melting due to warm mixed layer as a means of
917        setting SEAICE_availHeatFrac more conveniently
918      - add a CPP-flag/runtime parameter check for flooding algorithm
919      - reformulated availHeat in seaice_growth.F to be independent of AREA
920    o change units attribute of EmPmR netcdf variables to kg/m^2/s to reflect recent
921      unit changes
922    o pkg/obcs: added OBCS_SEAICE_AVOID_CONVERGENCE constraint
923    o cg2d.F: add 3 compiler directives that speed up this routine by 30% on a NEC
924      SX vector computer.
925    o pkg/seaice:
926      - removed SEAICE_FFIELDS.h and seaice_get_forcing.F
927        seaice forcing fields can now be read only through pkg/exf
928      - removed some unused halos
929    o no longer write pickup from THE_MODEL_MAIN but always from FORWARD_STEP
930    o pkg/exf: added useRelativeWind EXF_PARAM.h option for subtracting U/VVEL
931      or U/VICE from U/VWIND before computing U/VSTRESS
932    
933    checkpoint59k
934    o pkg/seaice: ICE2WATR=SEAICE_rhoIce/rhoConst for consistency between
935      dynamics and thermodynamics. Set ICE2WATR=0.92 to reproduce older results.
936    o fix un-initialised variable problem (in mom_vecinv & shap_filt):
937      all experiments pass when compile with un-initialised var. checking option.
938  o added pkg/salt_plume  o added pkg/salt_plume
939  o script to test restart (for now, in MITgcm_contrib/jmc_script)  o script to test restart (for now, in MITgcm_contrib/jmc_script)
940  o pkg/seaice: new read/write pickup version.  o pkg/seaice: new read/write pickup version.
