4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7    o pkg/monitor:
8      - add new routine to compute Advective CFL within tracer time-stepping with
9        writing delayed until next monitor output.
10    o pkg/obcs:
11      - fix bug in OBCS_BALANCE_FLOW (OBCS_balanceFacN misspelled OBCS_balanceFacW)
12    o pkg/dic & seaice:
13      - fix compilation of ocean component for coupled atm+ocn model with
14        seaice dynamics & dic.
15    
16    checkpoint65x (2016/06/11)
17    o add a license text file in main MITgcm tree.
18    o added pkg/bling:
19      - intermediate complexity biogeochemical model
20      - see bling_description.txt for details
21      - verification experiment is global_oce_biogeo_bling (for now, in
22        Contrib/verification_other/); tested daily on baudelaire with gfortran.
23      - add entry point in pkg/gchem for new pkg "bling".
24    o pkg/seaice: fix tensile stength computation
25      - replace global field tensileStrength by tensileStrFac
26      - tensileStrFac can be computed once in S/R seaice_init_varia
27      - fortunately that does not affect any verification results
28    
29    checkpoint65w (2016/05/12)
30    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl.h: fix a comma in common block list, so that code compiles
31         with ECCO_CTRL_DEPRECATED defined
32    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15:
33      - change secondary test "viscA4" to also test "selectP_inEOS_Zc=3"
34        with "selectNHfreeSurf=1".
35    o model/src (non-hydrostatic free-surface):
36      - More "natural" expression of NH free-surface term (case selectNHfreeSurf=1):
37        was: tmpSurf/(1+tmpSurf); changed to: 1/(1+Gamma) with Gamma=1/tmpSurf.
38      - Calculate surface vertical velocity after 2-D solver adjustment (accounts
39        for EmPmR if RealFreshWaterFlux); used in RHS (cg3d_b) if exactConserv
40        and used to compute dPhiNH (in post_cg3d.F) if selectNHfreeSurf=1.
41        This fixes EmPmR contribution when selectNHfreeSurf=1 & RealFreshWaterFlux.
42      - Update output (changes at machine truncation level) of verification exp:
43        exp4 (11 digits for cg2d), global_ocean.cs32x15.viscA4 (11.d),
44        short_surf_wave (13.d) and tutorial_deep_convection.smag3d (12.d).
45    o pkg/seaice: ITD code
46      - fix picking up from a single category model by initialising
47        heff/area/hsnowITD = 0. in seaice_itd_pickup.F
48      - split a long warning message in seaice_check_pickup.F into two lines,
49        because NEC SX-ACE cannot deal with the long line.
50    o model/src:
51      - fix missing dPhiNH in pressure_for_eos.F (case: selectP_inEOS_Zc=3)
52    o pkg/seaice:
53      - add missing checks for SEAICE_ALLOW_KRYLOV and SEAICE_ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG
54    o pkg/seaice:
55      - add basal stress as parameterisation for grounding ice
56        following Lemieux et al. (2015)
57      - turn on by setting new parameter SEAICEbasalDragK2 to a value
58        larger than 0. Lemieux et al. (2015) recommend 15.
59      - The adjoint complains with extra recomputations so there is also a
60        new cpp-flag SEAICE_ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG that is undefined by default in
61        order to postpone the problem
62      - compile the new code in lab_sea
63    o verification/halfpipe_streamice:
64      - update both TAF and OpenAD adm output (machine truncation differences)
65    
66    checkpoint65v (2016/04/08)
67    o verification/advect_xz:
68      - increase overlap size from 3 to 4 and add new secondary test for PQM
69        advection scheme (with mono & wino limiter).
70      - change main exp. to test PPM (with weno limiter) adv.scheme on Temp.
71    o model/src:
72      - new parameters "top_Pres" & "seaLev_Z" (replacing Ro_SeaLevel and recently
73        added phi0Ref) to set vertical axis origin and phiRef origin;
74        keep Ro_SeaLevel for backward compatibility (with a warning).
75       According to coordinate and fluid type:
76        OCN in Z: top_Pres(Ref) (=rhoConst*PhiRef(1)), seaLev_Z (=rF(1), @ the top)
77        ATM in Z: top_Pres(Ref) (=rhoConst*PhiRef(1)), seaLev_Z (=rF(Nr+1) @ bottom)
78        OCN in P: top_Pres (=rF(Nr+1)), seaLev_Z (= PhiRef(Nr+1)/g, @ the top)
79        ATM in P: top_Pres (=rF(Nr+1)), seaLev_Z (= PhiRef(1)/g, @ the bottom)
80      - remove Ro_SeaLevel from ATM experiment parameter files;
81      - in tutorial_global_oce_in_p, remove Ro_SeaLevel and set top_Pres to the
82        complement; update output.txt (changes at machine truncation level).
83    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp.F
84      - simplify computation of deltaZ and zetaZ to simple averaging following
85        Bouillon et al. (2013). This removes a lot of code, but also changes
86        verification experiment lab_sea.hb87 -> updated
87    
88    checkpoint65u (2016/03/14)
89    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
90      - from Darren: add PPM and PQM advection schemes (number 40-42 and 50-52)
91        with 2 types of limiter (see: Engwirda & Kelley, submit. to JCP);
92        Note (from Darren): unlimited PPM/PQM scheme (40 & 50) are just for
93        testing and not for actual use.
94    o model/src:
95      - add parameter "phi0Ref" to specify reference [pressure/geo] potential at
96        origin r = rF(1);
97      - add options (parameter selectP_inEOS_Zc) to select which pressure to use
98        in EOS for height coordinate: enable to include NH Pressure or to use
99        more accurate pressure vertical profile; options not linked to EOS type
100        (as previously, e.g., JMD95P/JMD95Z) but set default according to EOS type;
101      - start to implement variable gravity (along vertical): for now, only with
102        z-coords (not even z*).
103      - add Ideal Gas equation of state for height coordinate.
104      - update OpenAD output (affected at machine truncation level) of exp:
105        global_ocean.90x40x15, OpenAD (std) and tutorial_global_oce_biogeo.
106    o pkg/exf:
107      - add ALLOW_EXF_OUTPUT_INTERP cpp switch to output the result
108        of exf interpolation (before any rescaling, rotation or interpolation
109        to velocity point) for each field that gets loaded from file. This option
110        identically mimics the input file organization (e.g. record numbers in year
111        by year input files) besides the change in horizontal grid.
112      - add rotateStressOnAgrid run-time switch so that wind stress fields
113        can be provided on the A-grid in zonal/meridional direction and
114        rotated on the fly. This only applies to the case when the exf
115        interpolation is off and rotateStressOnAgrid is false by default.
116    o model/src:
117      - rename internal parameter "useDynP_inEos_Zc" to "storePhiHyd4Phys" (since
118        it's also used with pkg/atm_phys) and add few more parameters (but still
119        inactive, src code yet to come)
120    
121    checkpoint65t (2016/02/10)
122    o pkg/atm_phys:
123      - from Ruth Geen: add optical depth dependence on CO2 concentration.
124    o model/src:
125      - fix vertical inter/extra-polation of density factor rhoFacF (for anelastic)
126        for the case setCenterDr=T (delRc set from "data"); add output of rhoFacC&F.
127        Update output of exp. deep_anelastic (changes at truncation level).
128    o tools:
129      - add a hack in "remove_comments_sed" (used only with TAF) for recent
130        version of OpenMPI (shipped with FC.23): comment out the new header
131        file "mpif-sizeof.h" which causes problems to TAF.
132    o pkg/seaice:
133      - change the termination criterion so that maxits (SEAICElinearIterMax)
134        has an effect
135      - unify iteration parameters for implicit solvers (JFNK and Picard)
136        SEAICEnonLinIterMax replaces SEAICEnewtonIterMax/NPSEUDOTIMESTEPS
137        SEAICElinearIterMax replaces SEAICEkrylovIterMax/SOLV_MAX_ITER
138        SEAICEpreLinIterMax replaces SOLV_MAX_ITER in preconditioner
139        SEAICEpreNL_IterMax replaces NPSEUDOTIMESTEPS in preconditioner
140        SEAICEnonLinTol     replaces JFNKgamma_nonlin
141      - remove S/R SEAICE_FGMRES_DRIVER and put content into S/R SEAICE_JFKN
142      - add new Picard-Krylov solver, compile with SEAICE_ALLOW_KRYLOV and
143        use with SEAICEuseKrylov
144    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F
145        fix small bug: replace zetaZ by zetaZloc in S/R seaice_lsr_rhsu/v; only
146        relevant if SEAICEuseStrImpCpl=T, and even then it does not seem to have
147        an effect.
148    o pkg/seaice: add two new parameters
149      - SEAICEuseLSR to simplify the logic in seaice_dynsolver (this
150        parameter is not in any namelist)
151      - SEAICEusrPicardAsPrecon to allow s/r seaice_lsr to be used as
152        a preconditioner for the non-linear Newton iteration of the JFNK
153        solver
154    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F: replace 1./SEAICE_deltaTdyn with recip_deltaT,
155      affects some experiments at truncation level:
156      - global_ocean.cs32x15.icedyn (11 digits),
157      - global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice (11 digits),
158      - seaice_itd (12 digits), seaice_itd.lipscomb07 (12 digits) -> update
159      - also update global_ocean.cs32x15 adjoint and tangent-linear results
160    o pkg/salt_plume & pkg/thsice:
161      - for coupled  set-up with pkg/thsice in ATM and pkg/salt_plume in OCN,
162        connect salt_plume flux to ATM-OCN coupling pkgs interface:
163       a) in ATM: also cumulate salt-plume flux in S/R THSICE_SALT_PLUME (for
164         export to coupler interface) even without compiling pkg/salt_plume ;
165       b) in OCN: apply coupler salt-plume flux to pkg/salt_plume field
166         (saltPlumeFlux) just before exch call, in S/R SALT_PLUME_DO_EXCH.
167    o pkg/dic:
168      - use the updated seaice fraction (from seaice pkgs) for DIC forcing
169        instead of the previous time-step value ; done in new S/R DIC_FIELDS_UPDATE
170        called from the top of dic_biotic_forcing.F (instead of in DIC_FIELDS_LOAD);
171      - move also update with values from ATM-OCN Coupler in the same new S/R
172        (previously done in ocn_apply_import.F).
173    o tools/adjoint_options:
174      - specify explicitly "-f77" or "-f90" in default ad-optfile since TAF (default)
175        has been changed on Jan 14, 2016.
176    o pkg/ggl90:
177      - add alternative discretisation of vertical shear (off by default), to
178        compute the mean (@ grid-cell center) of vertical shear compon instead of
179        vertical shear of mean flow (@ grid-cell center).
180      - add correct parenthesis in ALLOW_GGL90_SMOOTH code to get the same truncated
181        results on adjacent faces of cubed-sphere grids; this fix the restart.
182    o pkg/atm_compon_interf:
183      - skip time-ave over cpl_atmSendFrq of Sea-Level Pressure (atmSLPr) and just
184        pass last value, stored directly before export to CPL ;
185        Note: this affects results of Coupled set-up where OCN uses useImportSLP=T
186      - remove atmSLPr from pickup files (no longer needed for restart)
187    
188    checkpoint65s (2016/01/13)
189    o eesupp & genmake2:
190       - first check for Function ETIME and, if it fails, then check for subroutine
191         ETIME and consistent output; use the appropriate version in timers.F
192    o model/src:
193      - to check restart test, add option to apply EXCH to U,V earlier, just before
194        integr_continuity; turned off by default.
195    o pkg/dic:
196      - remove CPP option USE_ATMOSCO2 (not needed)
197    o tools/tst_2+2:
198      - try to ignore difference between +0 and -0 in binary file, causing test
199        to fail for no good reason.
200    o eesupp & genmake2:
201      - put back modif from Jinxuan Zhu - change etime fct call to S/R call -
202        but also check (in genmake2) that test runs and returns meaningful results.
203    o coupler pkgs:
204      Finish implementation of optionally-exchanged variable switches (started on
205       Nov 12) with addition of few more exchanged fields, including 2-way exchange
206       of pkg/thsice vars to allow to use seaice dynamics (from pkg/seaice) & seaice
207       advection in OCN component; this requires sequential coupling.
208      coupler (pkg/atm_ocn_coupler):
209      - add argument msgUnit and iter number to CPL_SEND/RECV_ATM/OCN_FIELDS
210        routines (useful for debug).
211      - only export/import optionally exchanged fields (RunOff, seaice, Salt-Plume
212         flux, DIC fields) if corresponding switch is ON.
213      - add option to export RunOff to OCN (to use for DIC river input)
214      - add 2-way thSIce vars exchange; check for consistent cpl_sequential setting.
215      components (pkg/atm_ & ocn_compon_interf):
216      - to save memory space in ATM & OCN comp: add some #ifdef ALLOW_${PKG} around
217        optionally exchanged fields; add a check & stop in cpl_readparms.F.
218        ATMCPL.h: ALLOW_LAND for RunOff, ALLOW_THSICE for seaice, ALLOW_AIM for CO2;
219        OCNCPL.h: ALLOW_SALT_PLUME, ALLOW_DIC for DIC, ALLOW_THSICE for 2-W thsice.
220      - rename:   fracIce     -> sIceFrac_cpl (<- match coupler var name)
221        + in ATM: fracIceTime -> sIceFracTime ; seaIceTime -> sIceMassTime.
222      - add 2-way thSIce vars exchange ; add Salt-Plume flux ; add RunOff in OCN.
223      - hold in common block coupler optionally-exchanged variable switch
224        and set default "useImportXXX" accordingly; + check & stop if inconsistent.
225      - add diagnostics for all imported fields from coupler (in both OCN & ATM);
226        this is intended to replace the OCN cplFldtave.* output files (not updated
227        to contain new additional exchanged fields).
228    o pkg/dic:
229      - fix an other bug (also from 2014/08/30) in dic_atmos.F, in dic_int1=3 code.
230    o pkg/thsice:
231      - when coupled to ATM (useCoupler) with thSIce_skipThermo=T, skip reading
232        and writing of thsice pickup files.
233    o pkg/atm_compon_interf:
234      - move all field individual export-call out of cpl_export_import_data.F
235        into new S/R ATM_EXPORT_FIELDS
236    o pkg/atm_compon_interf:
237      - store state variables (for now, only thSIce fields) just before beeing
238        exported (in cpl_export_import_data.F, like on ocean side) instead of from
239        atm_store_my_data.F like all exported fluxes.
240      - new version of pickup_cpl: write field names into meta file and read meta
241        file to find field postion in pickup. Also only write/read fields meeded for
242        restart (same logic as main pickup file ; also using pickupStrictlyMatch)
243    o pkg/dic:
244      - fix bug (added on 2014/08/30) in dic_atmos.F for the case dic_int1= 2 or 3.
245    o pkg/seaice: add new parameter SEAICEpressReplFac to choose between
246        pressure replacement method (=1., default) or original Hibler (1979) (=0.)
247        value can be from domain [0,1] to average between the two methods
248    o pkg/atm_phys:
249      - allow to provide 2-d map of albedo and mixed-layer depth from files (but
250        hold fixed in time).
251    
252    checkpoint65r (2015/12/21)
253    o pkg/seaice:
254        fix bug in tridiagonal solvers for SEAICE_OLx/y>0, this affects the JFNK
255        solver (offline.dyn_jfnk) and global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice -> updated
256    o pkg/seaice:
257      - fix a bug in computing areaS in (J-J -> J-1) that affects runs
258        when SEAICEscaleSurfStress=.TRUE.,
259      - apply areaW and areaS in S/R seaice_calc_lhs
260    o pkg/atm_phys:
261      - add diagnostics for 3-D, Nr+1 levels diagnostics of radiative fluxes
262        (shortwave & longwave, net & downward) and diagnostics of temp. tendency
263        for individual contribution (convection, LSC cond, radiation)
264      - add Ruth Geen etal, GRL 2016, radiation options (see paper supp.
265        information); activated with: solar_exponent=0. and wv_exponent=-1.
266    o pkg/ggl90:
267      - within IDEMIX add upper limit for horizontal group velocity to
268        avoid instability problems in the explicit horizontal diffusion term for
269        long time steps or high resolution
270    o pkg/diagnostics:
271      - simplify setting of local-array size in diagstats_output.F: uses "numLevels"
272        (from DIAGNOSTICS_SIZE.h) to allow to write out more than Nr levels.
273    o testreport:
274      - remove "-v" (verbose option) in default mpirun command.
275    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth:
276      - catch potential division by zero in ITD code, does not change
277        verification results
278    o pkg/ecco:
279      - retire old codes to the Attic. The calls to retired functions are
280        left in a commented form in case they ever need to be re-activated.
281      - ecco_check.F: issue warning if any old CPP option is
282        defined that corresponds to retired codes -- then stop.
283    o pkg/atm_compon_interf:
284      - change seaice fraction (use for OCN dic surf.flux) stored and sent to
285        coupler: use last time-step value instead of average over cplSendFrq_iter
286        time-step, similar to what is done for seaIceMass.
287        This will affect results (pkg/dic) of coupled ATM-OCN+dic set-up.
288    o eesupp & genmake2:
289      - from Jinxuan Zhu: change etime fct call to S/R call (fix gfortran ETIME);
290        <= remove until a fix is found for some ifort version on ia32 machine.
291    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp:
292      - refine residual computation
293    
294    checkpoint65q (2015/11/18)
295    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp:
296      - fix residual computations so that they no longer affect the actual
297        simulation code
298      - fix seaice_readparams to be able to actually set new parameters
299        SEAICEaEVPcStar and SEAICEaEVPalphaMin, also fix logic a little
300    o model/src:
301      - fix wrong truncation (single prec) from "FLOAT" function in expressions
302        like: deltaT*FLOAT(myIter) when myIter is large:
303         a) replaced by DFLOAT (if not seen by TAF);
304         b) remove "FLOAT" and use implicit type conversion (if seen by TAF).
305    o pkg/aim_v23:
306      - write/read the expected CO2 pickups (from S/R AIM_DO_CO2): fix reading
307        when pickupSuff is set ; do write rolling pickups + at the end of the run.
308    o pkg/atm_ocn_coupler + ocn_compon_interf:
309      - in prep for using pkg/seaice Dyn in coupled set-up, implement sequential
310        coupling option-1: ATM -(cpl)-> OCN and then OCN -(cpl)-> ATM ;
311        add corresponding call in DO_OCEANIC_PHYS.
312    o coupler pkgs:
313      Start a new way to set-up optionally-exchanged variables (previously, only
314       there for exchange_DIC): switch on/off from 1 place, at run-time, in coupler
315       data.cpl (new) instead of at compile time in ATMIDS.h & OCNIDS.h ;
316       send switch to ATM & OCN compon before reading their own "data.cpl" (so that
317       compononent param default can be set accordingly).
318      Note: this new switch (cpl_exchange_[xxx]) is not a per variable switch
319       but rather applies to a group a fields (going both ways like for DIC)
320       and corresponds to an option of coupling config.
321      coupler (pkg/atm_ocn_coupler):
322      - change parameter file from "data" to "data.cpl" (in cpl_read_params.F),
323        and read namelist directly (without eessup S/R calls) instead of
324        in the very un-flexible old way, 1 param per line, in fixed order;
325      - add error-counter to track errors (e.g., missing "data.cpl") and to stop
326        cleanly in CPL_CHECK_CPLCONFIG
327      - add new coupling-exchange selectors (some not yet active) including
328        cpl_exchange_DIC (to set to 3 to replace atmCpl_exchange_DIC=T in ATMIDS.h
329                                             and ocnCpl_exchange_DIC=T in OCNIDS.h);
330      - add 2 new S/R (CPL_SEND_ATM/OCN_CPLPARMS) to send coupler-params to each
331        component ; called directly from coupler.F, after comp. registrations;
332      - rename few variable-ID names (in ATMIDS.h & OCNIDS.h):
333         atm/ocnSeaIceName --> atm/ocnSIceMassName ; atm/ocnFCO2Name ->
334          -> atm/ocnCO2FluxName ; atm/ocnWSpdName --> atm/ocnWindSpdName
335      components (pkg/atm_ & ocn_compon_interf):
336      - add ATM/OCN_CPL_OPTIONS.h in component pkgs and include the corresponding
337        CPP header file in all pkg source files.
338      - move checking of comp. configs out of cpl_exch_configs.F into new S/R
339        ATM/OCN_CHECK_CPLCONFIG;
340      - add error-counter to track errors (e.g., in "data.cpl") and to stop
341        cleanly in ATM/OCN_CHECK_CPLCONFIG;
342      - add new S/R CPL_IMPORT_CPLPARMS to import coupling-exchange selectors
343        from coupler ; called from initialise_fixed.F, after PACKAGES_BOOT and
344        before PACKAGES_READPARMS;
345      verification/cpl_aim+ocn/:
346      - update ATMIDS.h & OCNIDS.h (in shared_code) and use new parameter file
347        "data.cpl" for coupler (in input_cpl).
348    o eesupp/inc:
349      - change the MPI-global-sum default (in CPP_EEOPTIONS.h) to:
350        #define GLOBAL_SUM_ORDER_TILES (only affects MPI built of global_sum_tile.F)
351        to always cumulate tile local-sum in the same order (still uses
352        MPI_Allreduce like standard code).
353      - in verification experiment code, remove local CPP_EEOPTIONS.h_mpi files
354        that are now identical to standard version (in eesupp/inc).
355    o pkg/shelfice:
356      - add SHELFICETransCoeffTFile for initializing spatially varying
357        heat and salt transfer coefficients
358    o pkg/atm_compon_interf & ocn_compon_interf:
359      - combine into 1 (new) S/R CPL_EXPORT_IMPORT_DATA the two previous
360        S/R CPL_EXPORT_MY_DATA & CPL_IMPORT_EXTERNAL_DATA
361      - move bi,bj loops inside S/R OCN_STORE_MY_DATA
362    o pkg/atm_ocn_coupler:
363      - initialise to zero ATMVARS.h & OCNVARS.h arrays.
364    o pkg/rbcs:
365      - select RBCS-mask for Temp & Salt the same way as for pTracer ; this allows
366        to compile with maskLEN=1 when all tracers use the same RBCS-mask.
367      - add a short report (to STDOUT) about RBCS-mask settings.
368    
369    checkpoint65p (2015/10/23)
370    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp.F: fix store directives and key computations, since
371        there is no adjoint test for EVP, we don't know what it does to the adjoint
372        solution, but at least there are no more recomputation warnings left
373    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp.F: slight modification of averaging so that EVP stands
374        a chance of giving the same results as a fully converged VP (JFNK) solver
375    o tools/adjoint_options/adjoint_diva:
376      - fix bug (typo) in Tang-Linear FLAGS setting for MPI + DIVA
377    o pkg/streamice:
378      - spotted bug in streamice_driving_stress using dyG where should have been dxG
379    o pkg/exf:
380      - remove STOP statement that prevented to use wind or (wind-)stress
381        interpolation for constant-in-time forcing fields (wind/stress period = 0).
382    o pkg/seaice:
383      - replace SEAICE_EVP_USE_ADAPTATION by run time parameters, requires
384        5 additionals 2D fields and 6 new store directives
385      - change logic in seaice_readparms.F: EVP code can now be turned on in
386        various ways, setting SEAICE_deltaTev is no longer required,
387        alternatively set SEAICE_evpAlpha/Beta, SEAICEuseEVPstar, SEAICEuseEVPrev,
388        or SEAICEaEVPcoeff
389    o pkg/shelfice/shelfice_thermodynamics.F
390      - redefining uLoc/vLoc to u/v, instead of 2u/v
391    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp.F: introduce "adaptive EVP" by Madlen Kimmritz
392      - this is an intermediate state of a truely converging EVP that has
393        the potential of outperforming implicit VP methods, I do not recommend
394        using it yet.
395      - for now, "adaptive EVP" is turned on by setting SEAICE_EVP_USE_ADAPTATION
396        and all parameters are hardwired
397      - for convergence it still requires very smooth regularisations, that means,
398        if SEAICE_DELTA_SMOOTHREG is defined, deltaCreg=deltaC+deltaMin, which is
399        different from the VP case with deltaCreg=sqrt(deltaC**2+deltaMin**2); also
400        specific averaging appears to be required, still subject to tuning
401      - still needs cleaning and I need to turn parameter into runtime parameters
402      - add code to compute and print residuals of iteration, compile with
403        defining ALLOW_SEAICE_EVP_RESIDUAL to enable it
404    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp.F: fix a bug (factor of four in front of e12Csq)
405      that entered with r1.54 on Sep04, 2015, -> update results
406    
407    checkpoint65o (2015/09/14)
408    o pkg/mom_vecinv & mom_common:
409      - add deep-atmosphere geometry factor in mom_calc_visc.F + in routines
410        called from there.
411      - add anelastic and deep-atmosphere geometry factor in pkg/mom_vecinv ; this
412        allows to use Vector-Invariant form in deep atmos and anelastic formulation
413    o pkg/seaice: introduce fast ice parameterisation following Itkin et al. (2015)
414      and Koenig-Beatty+Holland (2012)
415      - two new parameters SEAICE_tensilFac and SEAICE_tensilDepth
416      - global 2D field tensileStrength, computed in seaice_calc_ice_strength
417      - requires an extra input argument for S/R seaice_calc_viscosities
418      - tensileStrength's depth dependence is different from Itkin et al. (2015)
419        (to be changed and played with, for now exponential)
420    o pkg/seaice: introduce new parameter SEAICEscaleSurfStress (default = .FALSE.)
421      - if TRUE scale ice-ocean and ice-atmosphere stress acting on sea ice
422        by AREA according to Connelly et al. (2004), JPO.
423      - For EVP and the LSR solver, the implicit part of the drag term is
424        the only non-zero term in the denominator when there is no ice (which
425        prevented running the model with zero ice-ocean drag). If
426        SEAICEscaleSurfStress = .TRUE., this results in a division by zero
427        (or zero main diagonals BU/BV) which need to be caught. A practical
428        consequence is that for open water, the momentum equation reduce
429        to trivially 0 = 0 + 0 (for EVP). For LSR, BU/BV are reset to 1, if
430        they happen to be zero, often leading to a non-zero solution over
431        open water.
432    o pkg/seaice: revise EVP code (seaice_evp.F) in preparation for a more
433        efficient EVP method.
434      - introduce area-weighted averages for e12 (analogously to
435        seaice_calc_viscosities.F); this totally changes lab_sea.hb87 (2 digits
436        remain, but also changing the order of terms in the previous average
437        changed the results as much) -> update experiment
438      - add SEAICE_DELTA_SMOOTHREG code
439      - disentangle computation of zetaC/deltaC and zetaZ/deltaZ, also for
440        TEM-code
441      - adjust loop bounds so that only required fields are computed
442      - add new averaging code for zetaZ/deltaZ (again similar to
443        seaice_calc_viscosities.F), inactive by default for now (will change
444        results again), but will replace old code eventually
445    o eesupp/src:
446      - add an other alternative for multi-proc GLOBAL_SUM (in global_sum_tile.F)
447        to always cumulate tile local-sum in the same order
448        (option #define GLOBAL_SUM_ORDER_TILES in CPP_EEOPTIONS.h).
449        Still uses MPI_Allreduce (like standard code) but on array of tiles
450        and should be faster than GLOBAL_SUM_SEND_RECV code.
451      - switch almost all verification experiments that use GLOBAL_SUM_SEND_RECV
452        (defined in CPP_EEOPTIONS.h_mpi) to GLOBAL_SUM_ORDER_TILES instead.
453      - add CPP_EEOPTIONS.h_mpi with GLOBAL_SUM_ORDER_TILES defined in 14 more exp.:
454         aim.5l_cs, cheapAML_box, deep_anelastic, dome, fizhi-cs-32x32x40,
455         fizhi-cs-aqualev20, fizhi-gridalt-hs, global_ocean_ebm, matrix_example,
456         natl_box, solid-body.cs-32x32x1, tutorial_advection_in_gyre,
457         tutorial_baroclinic_gyre and tutorial_held_suarez_cs.
458    
459    checkpoint65n (2015/07/29)
460    o pkg/thsice:
461      - add a warning when used with pkg/aim but without updating SST
462        (stepFwd_oceMxL=F & useCoupler=F & tauRelax_MxL<>-1 ).
463    o pkg/offline:
464      - change where Offline-Fields are loaded, from load_fields_driver.F to
465        directly within FORWARD_STEP, just after updating iter number and time;
466      - move setting of GM and KPP diffusivity out of OFFLINE_FIELDS_LOAD into new
467        S/R OFFLINE_GET_DIFFUS that is called towards the end of DO_OCEANIC_PHYS;
468       These changes allow:
469        a) to recover exactly on-line results using deltaToffline=deltaTClock,
470        tested (using offlineIter0= nIter0 -1 and offlineTimeOffset= -deltaT/2)
471        both with Lin & Non-Lin Free-Surf, both with staggerTimeStep & synchronous
472        time-step, both with GM & KPP files and with recomputing these fields;
473        b) no needs to switch on staggerTimeStep anymore;
474        c) simplify rescaling of offline horiz. velocity with Non-Lin Free-Surf.
475      - update output of experiment tutorial_dic_adjoffline (only 3 digits left).
476    o pkg/offline:
477      - change (rarely used) offset-iteration parameter to an offset time (in s):
478        can easily recover previous offset-iter effect by setting offset-time
479        (offlineTimeOffset) to offset-iter x deltaToffline;
480      - do not turn-off Temp & Salinity surface relaxation when using KPP (used
481        in KPP as part of surface buoyancy forcing) in offline run.
482      - fix ptracers KPP non-local term in the case where KPP is re-computed.
483    o OpenAD
484      - Adding preliminary ggl90 test to OpenAD verification.
485        Config. with ggl90 currently diverges after 64 time steps
486        so will need more work to become more stable
487      - Adding preliminary kpp test to OpenAD verification.
488        required small tweakes in kpp_routines.F
489      - Merge and update from Krishna Narayanan's contrib area:
490        * Add one variable for preliminary OpenAD DIVA
491        * Add replacement time-stepping for OpenAD DIVA
492        * genmake2 flag -diva (but only for OpenAD; preliminary)
493        * required modifs for OAD_support
494        successful preliminary test for tutorial_global_oce_biogeo/
495    o pkg/seaice:
496      - initialise deltaC in seaice_lsr, cosmetic changes in seaice_lsr
497      - add cpp-flag SEAICE_DELTA_SMOOTHREG for option of regularising
498        delta with a smooth function in s/r seaice_calc_viscosity
499        (no effect on EVP)
500      - rename local suffix "sqr" into "sq" for more consistent variable names
501    o pkg/seaice:
502        add new parameter SEAICE_deltaMin that is used ***only***
503        for regularizing Delta (and nothing else, like the parameter
504        which is also used for all sorts of things SEAICE_EPS).
505        Defaults to SEAICE_EPS for backward compatibility only.
506    o pkg/seaice: replace erroneously storing e12Csqr on the wrong tape with
507        the wrong key by inialising it before use -> fixes a recomputation
508        problem but does not fix the gradient
509    o pkg/layers:
510      - move resetting of flux arrays to outside the iLa loop
511        (this caused layers_diapycnal to not work with more than one layer coord.)
512      - fix bug in calculation of layers_recip_delta in layers_init_fixed.F
513    o pkg/layers:
514      - remove from common block 3D layers fields (used to diagnose transport
515        in tracer coords) and declare them as local arrays in layers_calc.F
516    o pkg/seaice:
517      - Rename SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA to SEAICE_LSR_ZEBRA and define it
518        in lab_sea forward experiment (changes results -> updated)
519      - update adjoint experiment lab_sea after cleaning up seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
520    o pkg/seaice: modify seaice_lsr.F in order to improve the gradient
521       computations; for SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR
522      - move the loops over which the tridiagonal solvers (seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v)
523        sweep to the outside,
524      - remove store directives and add "CADJ loop sequential" directives
525        in analogy to model/src/solve_tridiagonal.F
526      - replace many "#ifdef SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA" by variable loop
527        boundaries to yield more readable code. This has also the charming side
528        effect that your can use SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA without
529        SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR (i.e. adjoint without recomputations in
530        seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v now requires either of these flags, vectorization
531        still requires SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR with SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA as
532        an additional option)
533       The tridiagonal solvers are now completely analoguous to solve_tridiagonal.F
534       but the adjoint gradients (which are affected by this change) still explode.
535    o coupler (atm & ocn _compon_interf):
536      - avoid using Exch2 IO mapping if not suitable.
537    
538    checkpoint65m (2015/06/15)
539    o pkg/layers:
540      - clean-up old parameters setting (from Sep 2012):
541        + remove old parameters setting from common block (declared locally);
542        + stop if any old parameter is mixed with new parameters;
543        + check for valid or consistent parameter setting (e.g., layers_name)
544      - check that layers_bounds for Pot.Density are in the right range;
545        this is supposed to catch un-updated setting after recently shifting
546        potential density field "prho" by -1000 (now in "sigma" scale).
547    o pkg/layers:
548      - Added missing call to layers_fill for keeping track of tottend in
549        pkg/diagnostics/diagnostics_fill_state.F
550    o pkg/layers:
551      - added CPP flux LAYERS_FINEGRID_DIAPYCNAL to disable fine-grid binning
552        of diapycnal fluxes
553    o pkg/layers:
554      - reverted changes to interpolation to previous treatment; there
555        was never actually a problem
556    o pkg/layers:
557      - fix interpolation of layers tracers in the presence of partial cells
558      - add lots of new functionality to compute water mass transformation
559        (enabled by CPP flag LAYERS_THERMODYNAMICS)
560      - add new calls from main code (diags_oceanic_surf_flux.F,
561        thermodynamics.F, impldiff.F) and gad to save the necessary fields
562        for layers_thermodynamics calculations
563    o pkg/ptracers:
564      - add capability of stepping a passive tracer forward without advection
565        by setting PTRACERS_advScheme to 0.
566    o pkg/diagnostics:
567      - add few (threads) _BARRIER around any update of "diag_pkgStatus".
568    o pkg/layers:
569      - shift potential density field "prho" by -1000 for density layer averaging so
570        that it corresponds to usual "sigma" definition (i.e., rho(p=const)-1000);
571        Note that density bin boundaries (layers_bounds in data.layers) have
572        to be set accordingly (i.e., shifted, in sigma scale).
573    o pkg/layers:
574      - fix snap-shot output of layer thickness @ V.pt and output of pot.density
575      - fix calculation of layer non-weighted velocity and layer probability
576      - add diagnostics for pot.density used for layer averaging
577    o pkg/seaice:
578      - seaice_calc_viscosity.F: change computation of deltaC**2 to ensure
579        positiveness, modify a few comments and improve variable names,
580      - the changed computation of deltaC affects most seaice-related
581        experiments at the truncation level.
582        seaice_itd.thermo is affected by far the most, with
583        only 7 digits of agreement remaining; update experiments.
584    
585    checkpoint65l (2015/05/04)
586    o pkg/shelfice:
587      - in shelfice_thermodynamics.F, if SHELFICEBoundaryLayer=.true., then set
588        factor drKp1 to zero where it is negative (ie. do not use
589        SHELFICEBoundaryLayer if hFacC>1)
590      - the same for factor drLoc in shelfice_forcing.F
591    o tools/genmake2: move FEXTRAFLAGS from FFLAGS to FOPTIM to avoid a problem
592        with modules in ptracers, when using testreport option "-small_f"
593    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F (in case of SEAICE_ITD)
594      - replace tmpscal1**1.36 by faster exp(1.36*log(tmpscal1))
595    o verification/testreport
596      - add new option -small_f
597        with this option testreport first makes the target small_f (*.f files)
598        before running make (all). This is useful for explicit inlining when
599        all sources need to be full available.
600    o pkg/exf/exf_interp.F:
601        remove previous changes related to reverse (decreasing) input grids latitude
602    
603    checkpoint65k (2015/04/01)
604    o pkg/ecco:
605        fix missing cosphi initialization; use eccoiter in place of optimcycle;
606        if autodiff is not compiled then use READ_REC_XY_RL/READ_REC_XYZ_RL
607        instead of active read/write
608    o pkg/ctrl:
609        if autodiff is not compiled then use READ_REC_XY_RL/READ_REC_XYZ_RL
610        instead of active read/write.
611    o pkg/autodiff: make autodiff_readparms.F and autodiff_whtapeio_sync.F
612        return if .NOT.useAUTODIFF
613    o pkg/seaice: add CPP brackets (cost function related).
614    o model/src:
615        add useAUTODIFF run time switch.
616    o pkg/exf/exf_interp.F:
617        add code to allow input grids with latitude starting in the north (i.e. when
618        j=1 corresponds to northern edge of field); modify global_with_exf to test
619        this feature.
620    o verification/testreport:
621      - replace "grep -A3" with POSIX conformal sed command, because there are
622        implementations of grep that cannot do contextual searches
623      - replace "cat -n" by "nl" (two occurrences), because not all implementations
624        of "cat" have the option "-n"
625    o model/src:
626        add new file gsw_teos10.F that contains 3 functions, more or less a copy
627        of the gsw_toolbox.f90 of the TEOS-10 fortran interface, that are used to
628        convert from conservative to potential temperature. For now they are not
629        called anywhere.
630    o pkg/ggl90: make "useIDEMIX" useful
631      - re-organize code in s/r ggl90_calc a little to move computations that
632        are different for idemix into separate loops (changes verification
633        experiment idemix at truncation level, 12 digits remain -> updated)
634      - requires 2 new 2D fields KappaM, verticalShear
635      - make hFacI and recip_hFacI local 3D variables that are passed to
636        s/r ggl90_idemix
637      - fix and improve some comments
638    
639    checkpoint65j (2015/02/25)
640    o pkg/openad
641      - synchronize seawater.F with version in model/src: replace routine
642        body of sw_temp by calling sw_ptmp and fix/add a few comments.
643    o pkg/mnc:
644      - change default value of pickup_read/write_mnc params to FALSE
645        (since few features are missing in reading MNC pickup files).
646    o model/src:
647      - change default (background) vertical diffusivity for salt to be the
648        temperature (background) vertical diffusivity.
649      - change background vertical diffusivity in vertical mixing pkgs ggl90,
650        kl10, my82 and pp81 from temperature diffusivity to salinity diffusivity.
651        This makes ptracers default diffusivity (that uses salt diffKr) more
652        consistent with vertical mixing schemes.
653    o verification/testreport:
654      - fix typo in "-pcls" option ;
655      - put temp files in /tmp (instead of in local dir)
656      - add option "-ncad" to use genmake2 new option "-nocat4ad"
657      - allow to use "-j" option (for multi-procs make) for AD, OAD and TLM.
658    o pkg/ggl90 (idemix code):
659      - apply few fixes ; add some missing "_d 0" ; update output of exp.
660        global_ocean.90x40x15.idemix
661    o OpenAD
662      - enable active file I/O and begin removal of work-around code
663        for OpenAD for handling control variables (memory vs. active files)
664      - new CPP options file OPENAD_OPTIONS.h
665      - revert to genarr2d gradient check for hs94.1x64x5
666      - (genarr3d tested by tutorial_global_oce_biogeo, tutorial_tracer_adjsens)
667      - gentim2d works for halfpipe_streamice but not yet hs94.1x64x5
668    o tools/genmake2:
669      - add option for an alternative Makefile (from Martin) where multiple
670        source files are sent to TAF (instead of all in one file).
671    o pkg/ggl90: add IDEMIX (Olbers and Eden, 2013)
672      - code provided by Carsten Eden as an extension of ggl90
673      - so far the code is turned on within ggl90 by setting a CPP-flag at
674        compile time; a runtime flag implementation is not yet complete
675      - tested in new verification experiment global_ocean.90x40x15.idemix
676    o verification:
677      - reduce length of the AD test run by half for experiments
678        global_ocean.cs32x15 (std + thsice) and isomip
679      - enable active file I/O for OpenAD, adjust verifications accordingly
680      - halfpipe_streamice: change gradient check from genarr2d to gentim2d
681    o verification/testreport:
682      - fix two non-POSIX sed statements so that there are no error messages
683        on Mac OS X
684      - replace hostname -s with hostname | sed 's/\..*$//'
685    o model/src/seawater.F:
686      - simplify SW_TEMP to just calling SW_PTMP with P and PR exchanged
687        (following the matlab code), which would have avoided the bug caught
688        by Matt (see below) in the first place
689    o pkg/shelfice:
690      - implement alternative discretisation of quadratic drag (selectBotDragQuadr)
691        and true distance in no-slip BC (bottomVisc_pCell) similar to bottom-drag.
692      - fix sign of friction tendency (no-slip BC) and fix u,v drag for thin
693        ice-shelf case (i.e., within surface level).
694      - add config summary in shelfice_check.F
695      - remove global variable recip_SHELFICElatentHeat and replace by a local
696        variable recip_latentHeat
697      - introduce diagnostics for friction velocity uStar (in case of
698        SHELFICEuseGammaFrict)
699      - change verification experiment isomip.htd:
700        + start from pickup (as input_ad at nIter0=8640)
701        + start from SHELFICEmassFile instead of SHELFICEloadAnomaly file
702        + test SHELFICEuseGammaFrict = .TRUE.
703        + test SHELFICEadvDiffHeatFlux = .TRUE.
704    o model/src:
705      - fix bug (Thanks to Matt) in function SW_TEMP (to convert Pot.Temp to
706        in-situ Temp) and in routine SW_TEMP (in pkg/openad);
707        update output of experiments global_with_exf.yearly and isomip (all 6).
708    o pkg/shelfice:
709      - change setting of kTopC to also be zero where there is no ice-shelf.
710      - zero out surface forcing arrays (for now, for T & S + EmPmR) where
711        ice-shelf is.
712      - first attempt to get RealFreshWaterFlux effects: for now, only without
713        SHELFICEboundaryLayer ; not consistent if using synchronous time-stepping.
714    o pkg/seaice: add the option to prescribe a fixed thickness PDF
715      for thermodynamic calculations
716      - because of divisions of the type 7/7 not exactly equal to 1, this change
717        affects results of some verification experiments by up to 4 digits:
718        global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice, lab_sea, lab_sea.fd, lab_sea.salt_plume,
719        seaice_obcs, seaice_obcs.seaiceSponge, seaice_obcs.tides
720        adjoint: lab_sea, lab_sea.noseaicedyn
721        -> updated
722    
723    checkpoint65i (2015/01/23)
724    o model/src:
725      - change units of frictionHeating field from W to W/m^2
726      - fix bug in frictional heating from stratospheric drag in
727        S/R ATM_PHYS_TENDENCY_APPLY_V
728      - with synchronous time-stepping: move resetting to zero of frictionHeating
729        field from load_fields_driver.F to thermodynamics.F ;
730      - add diagnostics for frictional heating.
731    o model/src & gmredi K3D:
732      - add frictionHeating field to pickup-files (for synchronous time-stepping)
733      - move ALLOW_EDDYPSI block out of DYNVARS.h and merge it into FFIELDS.h
734      - rename uMean,vMean --> uEulerMean,vEulerMean (+ change diagnostics name
735        and name in pickup file).
736      - fix arguments of few DIAGNOSTICS_FILL calls in gmredi_k3d.F
737    o model/src:
738      - move (from ini_forcing.F) initialisation of all arrays in header file
739        FFIELDS.h into new S/R ini_ffields.F ; this fix broken restart
740        (since Nov 2012) with option selectAddFluid=1.
741    o pkg/shelfice:
742      - change units (+ document) of newly added field "shelfIceMassDynTendency"
743      - upgrade from _RS to _RL shelficeMass & shelficeLoadAnomaly arrays.
744    o pkg/obcs: re-organize obcs_calc_stevens.F to prepare for passive tracers
745    o pkg/seaice: two new runtime parameters:
746      - SEAICE_cStar replaces the hard wired "20" in the strength formulation,
747        long overdue
748      - SEAICE_tensilFac: preparation for Koenig-Beatty+Holland (2012)
749        parameterization of tensil stress for fast ice (does not do anything yet)
750    o pkg/seaice/seaice_check.F: left over from restricted addtive Schwarz method
751        for LSR: move checking overlaps out of JFNK-if-block
752    o pkg/atm_phys:
753      - move copy of grid and dynamical fields out of atm_phys_driver.F into
754        new S/R ATM_PHYS_DYN2PHYS.
755      - fix level height for Linear Free-Surf case (to be consistent with
756        fixed-in-time pressure levels).
757    o pkg/mom_common (bottomdrag):
758      - average bottomDragFld (ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG_CONTROL) from grid-cell center
759        to correct location (U & V point) in S/R MOM_U/V_BOTTOMDRAG;
760        update output (adm & tlm) of experiment global_ocean.90x40x15.bottomdrag.
761    o pkg/shelfice (u/v_drag):
762      - add one argument (the other velocity component) to S/R SHELFICE_U/V_DRAG;
763      - use SHELFICEDragLinear & SHELFICEDragQuadratic in shelfice_v_drag.F
764        (now similar to shelfice_u_drag.F)
765      - remove condition on bottomDragTerms when calling SHELFICE_U/V_DRAG
766        from mom_vecinv.F (similar to mom_fluxform calls).
767    o pkg/mom_common (bottomdrag):
768      - add one argument (the other velocity component) to S/R MOM_U/V_BOTTOMDRAG;
769      - add options for alternative discretisation of velocity norm in quadratic
770        bottom drag: averaging of grid-cell-center KE to U.point and V.point
771        (selectBotDragQuadr=0, original code) can produce noisy patterns; this
772        improves when averaging only the other component (e.g. vVel for U bottom
773        drag) using wet-point method (selectBotDragQuadr=2) or not (=1).
774      - add options (bottomVisc_pCell) to account for partial-cell in bottom
775        friction (no-slip BC) thus getting the true distance from the bottom;
776        off by default since this also reduces model stability (explicit bottom
777        friction). Changes produce different machine truncation with linear-drag
778        + no-slip BC: update output of experiments exp4.stevens (10 digits) and
779        front_relax (bvp & mxl, 10 & 11 digits).
780    o model/src & mom pkgs:
781      - add one more level to vertical viscosity local arrays (Nr+1, previously Nr)
782        since no-slip bottom BC uses viscosity @ k+1 to update velocity @ level k
783      - for now and until vertical mixing scheme are updated to fill up level Nr+1,
784        just copy level Nr value to level Nr+1.
785    o doc:
786      - add notes form Abhisek Chakraborty on how to close Heat & Salt budgets.
787    o pkg/shelfice:
788      - shelfice_init_varia.F, shelfice_init_fixed.F, shelfice_readparms.F,
789        SHELFICE.h: move array shelficemass to init_varia, initialise
790        from array shelficemassinit, which is set in init_fixed and
791        has option to be set from file; introduce array
792        shelficeMassDynTend array, set thru file in init_fixed
793      - NEW FILE: shelfice_step_icemass.F: update shelficemass from either
794        shelfIceFreshWaterFlux and shelficeMassDynTend or H_streamice in
795        pkg/streamice
796      - shelfice_thermodynamics.F: call shelfice_step_icemass if
797        SHELFICEMassStepping = .true.
798      - shelfice_ad_diff.list: add new subroutine shelfice_step_icemass.f
799    
800    checkpoint65h (2014/12/17)
801    o verification/global_ocean.90x40x15, global_ocean_ebm:
802      - update to generic controls.
803    o pkg/ctrl:
804      - ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F: test for igen>0
805      - ctrl_init_variables.F: add call to CTRL_MAP_INI_GENTIM2D.
806      - move gentim2d part of ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F to
807        new separate routine : ctrl_map_ini_gentim2d.F
808      - ctrl_cost_driver.F,ctrl_init.F ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F:
809        add time variable weights and cyclic controls (time mean,
810        seasonal cycle, etc) capabilities to gentim2d
811    o pkg/ecco:
812      - move reading of error, conversion to weights from
813        ecco_cost_init_fixed.F to ecco_toolbox.F (ecco_readwei)
814    o global_oce_llc90, cs32:
815      - activte sbo.
816      - CTRL_SIZE.h : add maxCtrlProc.
817      - activate the new genctrl capabilities.
818      - update following reorganization of global_oce_input_fields.tar.gz  
819    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_ad_diff.list:
820      - add missing ctrl_init_rec.f
821    o tools/OAD_support/keepOriginal:
822      - add ctrl_init_rec.F
823    o model/src/the_main_loop.F, pkg/ctrl/ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F:
824      - avoid recomputations of xx_gentim2d_dummy.
825    o momentum diagnostics:
826      - move filling of diagnostics Um_Diss & Vm_Diss from mom_fluxform.F and
827        mom_vecinv.F to timestep.F (to include Smag-3D contribution).
828    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F:
829      - fix computation of BU/BV, make sure they are non-zero, only necessary
830        for cubed sphere exchanges and SEAICE_OLx/y>0.
831        This makes calling s/r fill_cs_corner_rl obsolete (removed).
832    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.seaice
833      - add test for strong implicit coupling and restricted addtive Schwarz
834        methods for LSR
835      - update results/output.seaice.txt
836    o verification/tutorial_global_oce_biogeo:
837      - AD & OAD set-up: switch off ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX (like in fwd set-up)
838        and set PTRACERS_EvPrRn(1,2) to zero (for DIC & ALK);
839        update output_adm,_oadm,_tlm.txt
840    o pkg/dic:
841      - change default to "#undef ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX" in DIC_OPTIONS.h
842      - add a stop when ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX is defined and PTRACERS_EvPrRn
843        for tracer 1 & 2 is set (to avoid double counting of dilution effect).
844    o verification/tutorial_global_oce_biogeo:
845      - AD & OAD set-up: do not set PTRACERS_EvPrRn for tracer 1 & 2 since
846        dilution is already added by pkg/dic ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX ;
847        update output_adm,_oadm,_tlm.txt
848    o eesupp/src:
849      - add fill_cs_corner_rl.F (_RL-copy of fill_cs_corner_rs.F)
850        and call it in seaice_lsr when using nonzero SEAICE_OLx/y
851    o pkg/seaice: introduce strongly implicit coupling, intended for stabilizing
852      LSR (following Hutchings et al. 2004)
853      - introduce zetaZ as a global variable (requires adjustments in
854        seaice_evp.F and seaice_jfnk.F) and compute analoguously to etaZ
855        in seaice_calc_viscosities.F
856      - new flag SEAICEuseStrImpCpl (default off)
857      - add new terms zetaZ*du/dy and zetaZ*dv/dx on both sides of the
858        momentum equations
859      - JFNK-solver (preconditioner) adjusted to allow using this method
860        (where it does not have any positive effect)
861    o pkg/seaice
862      - add overlap for restrictive additive Schwartz method also to LSR, but
863        turn it off by default (because it only seems to work for non-cubed
864        sphere/llc topologies)
865    o pkg/autodiff
866      - add extra exchanges in addummy_in_steppging also for mnc output
867    o pkg/seaice:
868      - add extra exchanges before dumping adjoint fields in seaice_ad_dump.F
869        to avoid stripes in the adjoint output (similar to addummy_in_stepping.F)
870    o pkg/obcs:
871      - add option to specify domain-connected piece Id along OB though files
872        (for now, only used to diagnose PhiVel; default =1 -> global correction)
873      - modify obcs_diag_balance.F to process each connected-part separately;
874        exclude OB where Id = 0 but keep the full divergence there (-> constant
875        Psi along this portion of OB and all inflow derived from grad(Phi))
876      - add example of OB-conect files in verification/so_box_biogeo/input.
877    o pkg/diagnostics:
878      - improve treatment of Open-Boundaries in Velocity-Potential calculation:
879      a) use non zero matrix element across OB and solve for Phi 1 grid point
880         outside OB (i.e, where tracer OBCS are applied).
881      b) global imbalance of inFlow/outFlow across OB: instead of modifying
882         velocity across OB, spread it uniformly along the OB in the RHS.
883    
884    checkpoint65g (2014/11/19)
885    o pkg/diagnostcis:
886      - add preconditioner off-diagonal factor (diagCG_pcOffDFac) as run-time param
887    o pkg/my82,pp81,kl10:
888      - fix ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR implementation (previously had no effect): use 3-D
889        field diffKr as background diffusivity to set minimum diffusivity value.
890    o pkg/seaice:
891      - add new parameter SEAICEuseEVPrev (for revisited EVP by
892        Bouillon et al 2013)
893      - add SEAICE_evpAlpha/Beta to namelist
894      - modify seaice_evp code to able to use SEAICEuseEVPrev. These changes
895        involve trivial re-ordering of divisions/multiplications that should not
896        have any effects, but ... they do change the results of lab_sea.hb87 so
897        that only 2 digits of agreement remain, in line with the general
898        instability/fragility of the evp-code. For now, I do not care and just
899        update the verification experiment
900    o pkg/ctrl : add generic pre-processing (xx_genarr2d_preproc etc)
901      - remove xx_genarr2d_numsmooth etc
902      - use xx_genarr2d_preproc etc instead
903      - carry out smooth_correl2D at initialization stage rather than during
904        time stepping.
905      - get smoothOpNb from xx_gentim2d_preproc
906    o global_oce_cs32 :
907      - add test of generic ecco capabilities.
908    o pkg/exf/exf_getsurfacefluxes.F :
909      - add to tmpUE/tmpVN rather than re-initializing them (conventional behavior).
910    o pkg/ctrl,ecco :
911      - omit un-necessary arguments to ctrl_cost_gen.F unless ECCO_CTRL_DEPRECATED
912        is defined.
913    o pkg/seaice: add diagnostics for Delta (deformation parameter)
914    o model/src:
915      - when ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR is defined, add a Warning if any of the vertical
916        diffusivity (background) is specified but ignored.
917    o verification:
918      - in testreport, convert hostname to lower case for default output dir name
919    o model, pkg : add useCTRL, useECCO parameters (on/off run time switch).
920    o pkg/dic: add modifications from Hajoon:
921      - add iron sedimentation flux function of the flux of PO4 out of bottom layer
922      - light attenuation: add self-shading effect by climatological Chlorophyll
923        (read from file).
924    o pkg/seaice/seaice_preconditioner.F : fix cpp flags, so that code also
925        compiles when SEAICE_ALLOW_DYNAMICS is undefined
926    o global_oce_llc90,cs32 : ecco_v4 verification exps now use separate
927        AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, CTRL_OPTIONS.h, ECCO_OPTIONS.h rather than
928        ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h (i.e. replacing the deprecated, circumvoluted,
929        approach where CPP_OPTIONS.h includes an omnipotent
930        ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h that superseeds pkgs '_OPTIONS.h').
931    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F : include GMREDI_OPTIONS.h where
932        ALLOW_3D_KAPGM, ALLOW_3D_KAPREDI (to be added later) belong.
933    o pkg/seaice/SEAICE_SIZE.h : replace ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC with ALLOW_AUTODIFF
934        to avoid needing AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h anytime SEAICE_SIZE.h is included
935        (it seems that THSICE_SIZE.h, PTRACERS_SIZE.h have the same issue...)
936    o model/src, pkg/smooth, profiles, salt_plume, seaice, exf, ecco, ctrl :
937      add ECCO_OPTIONS.h, AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, CTRL_OPTIONS.h when needed
938      - ECCO_OPTIONS.h is needed when including ecco_cost.h, ecco.h
939      - AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h is needed when including tamc.h, tamc_keys.h
940      - CTRL_OPTIONS.h is needed when including ctrl.h, optim.h, etc
941    o pkg/ctrl,ecco,exf :
942      - remove variables associated with NON-generic costs,
943        unless ECCO_CTRL_DEPRECATED is defined.
944      - remove NON-generic NON-obcs controls,
945        unless ECCO_CTRL_DEPRECATED is defined.
946    o pkg/ctrl : added ctrl_local_params.h
947    o pkg/ecco : added ecco_local_params.h
948    o verification : added ECCO_CTRL_DEPRECATED to most as and oad
949        experiments, which will progressively be removed once the
950        experiments are revised to use only generic controls/costs.
951    
952    checkpoint65f (2014/10/13)
953    o pkg/ctrl, ecco, seaice : minor changes in headers
954    o global_oce_llc90,cs32 : ecco_v4 verification exps now test generic
955        cost function and control capabilities added since checkpoint65c.
956    o pkg/ctrl: regroup all obcs ctrl variables in CTRL_OBCS.h.
957    o pkg/ecco: increase modularity and improve logic
958      - ecco_toolbox.F (new) : basic operations that are often used,
959        including ecco_zero, ecco_cp, ecco_cprsrl, ecco_diffmsk,
960        ecco_addcost, ecco_add, ecco_div, ecco_readbar.
961      - cost_gencal.F (new) : determine filnames and records.
962      - cost_genread.F, cost_generic.F : condense code using ecco_toolbox.
963      - cost_generic.F : use spzeroloc rather than hard-coded -9999,
964        and exploit the above functions leading to more compact code.
965      - cost_genread.F : rm un-necessary arguments, re-arrange args order.
966      - ecco_check.F, ecco_readparms.F : bring logic up to date (using_tpj,
967        using_ers, using_gfo, using_mdt is now only defined within gencost)
968    o pkg/ecco: extend generic cost capabilities
969      - pkg/ecco : added 3D gencost (ALLOW_GENCOST3D), added gencost
970        capabilities via gencost_preproc (+ _c,_i,_r related params),
971        gencost_posproc (+ _c,_i,_r related params), gencost_nrecperiod,
972        gencost_outputlevel arguments to cost_generic
973      - pkg/ecco/cost_genread.F (new) : interface between cost_generic
974        and active_read, making room for gencost_preproc to take effect.
975        Added preproc code ('climmon') to replace GENERIC_BAR_MONTH.
976      - pkg/ecco/cost_generic.F :
977        compute and store misfit maks*(model-data) in localdif that is
978        then used in cost and for output, output misfit if outlev.GT.0
979      - pkg/ecco/cost_averagesfields.F : depend on gencost_barskip
980        rather gencost_barfile for deciding whether to write barfile
981      - pkg/ecco/ecco_cost_driver.F : extract call to cost_profiles from cost_hyd
982      - pkg/ecco/ecco_cost_init_fixed.F : extract gencost weights from
983        ecco_cost_weights, re-activate ecco_summary, determine gencost_barskip
984      - pkg/ecco/ecco_summary.F : report gencost variables
985      - pkg/ecco/cost_gencost_customize.F : treat case of scatterometer costs
986    o pkg/sea/SEAICE_OPTIONS.h : add ALLOW_COST_ICE, ALLOW_SEAICE_COST_SMR_AREA
987    o pkg/ecco: internal re-organization
988      - resolve un-necessary dependancies within pkg/ecco and to pkg/ctrl
989        (rm includes of optim.h and ctrl.h, replace optimcycle with eccoiter,
990        mv relevant variables definition from ecco_cost.h to ecco.h,
991        make sure gencost routines only include ecco.h)
992      - throughout : add missing CCP switches, rm unused variables,
993        and rm un-necessary CPP switches
994      - throughout gencost routines : replace modelstartdate with
995        gencost_startdate when needed
996      - cost_bp_read.F : use arguments, instead of common blocs
997        so that it can be used also by (new) cost_gencost_bpv4.F
998      - ecco_init_varia.F : initialize RHOsumGlob_0, VOLsumGlob_0
999      - ecco_phys.F : compute etanFull
1000      - ecco_readparms.F : rename using_topex as using_tpj, add
1001        bpv4-grace to gencost list, initialize added parameters
1002      - ecco_summary.F : include SIZE.h needed for augmented ecco.h
1003    
1004    checkpoint65e (2014/09/28)
1005    o pkg/obcs:
1006      - replaced the just-added CPP options with run-time variables
1007        (see pkg/obcs/OBCS_PARAMS.h for details)
1008    o pkg/obcs:
1009      - add additional CPP options for sponge boundary layers
1010        (see pkg/obcs/OBCS_OPTIONS.h for details)
1011    o pkg/atm_phys:
1012      - implement simple (obliquity only, assuming circular planet orbit)
1013        seasonal cycle for incoming insolation ; used when run-time parameter
1014        "select_incSW" is set to 1 ; by default (=0), uses old unchanged formula.
1015    o pkg/exf, pkg/ecco, pkg/ctrl:
1016      - add ctrlUseGen and .NOT.ctrlUseGen exclusive brackets
1017      - activate gentim2d for xx_atemp,xx_aqh,xx_swdown,xx_lwdown,xx_precip
1018      - implement gentim2d for xx_tauu, xx_tauv
1019    o pkg/ctrl, pkg/ecco :
1020      - fix and complement the generic controls implementation
1021    o pkg/exf/exf_getclim.F, exf_getffields.F, exf_getsurfacefluxes.F,
1022        pkg/shelfice/shelfice_thermodynamics.F,
1023        verification/hs94.1x64x5/code_ad/ctrl_map_gentim2d.F,
1024        verification/hs94.1x64x5/code_oad/ctrl_map_gentim2d.F :
1025      - add weight in CTRL_GET_GEN calls
1026    o pkg/ctrl :
1027      - ctrl_get_gen.F : add weight as input parameter, and apply
1028        it directly rather than using smooth_correl2Dw (to be retired).
1029      - ctrl_map_gentim2d.F : add wgentim2d in CTRL_GET_GEN call
1030    o pkg/ctrl :
1031      - introduce run time switch ctrlUseGen (in ctrl.h, ctrl_check.F,
1032        ctrl_init_variables.F, ctrl_readparms.F, ctrl_summary.F)
1033      - re-activate ctrl_summary (call in ctrl_init.F)
1034    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_cost_gen.F :
1035      - fix CCP brackets, remove un-necessary myiter, mytime
1036    o pkg/ecco, pkg/ctrl :
1037      - remove cost_genctrl.F (now pkg/ctrl/ctrl_cost_driver.F)
1038      - remove cost_forcing_gen.F (now pkg/ctrl/ctrl_cost_gen2d.F)
1039      - add ctrl_cost_driver.F (replaces pkg/ecco/cost_genctrl.F)
1040      - add ctrl_cost_gen2d.F (replaces pkg/ecco/cost_forcing_gen.F)
1041    
1042    checkpoint65d (2014/09/15)
1043    o pkg/ctrl/CTRL_GENARR.h, ctrl_readparms.F :
1044      - add xx_genarr2d_bounds,xx_genarr3d_bounds,
1045        xx_genarr2d_numsmooth, xx_genarr3d_numsmooth
1046    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F :
1047      - remove compilation failure
1048      - replace hard coded example
1049      - use ctrl_map_ini_gen2D, 3D
1050    o pkg/ctrl/ctrl_pack.F, ctrl_unpack.F :
1051      - on/off switch based upon xx_genarr2d_weight,3d
1052    o src/packages_init_variables.F :
1053      - regroup pkg/estimation calls
1054      - remove CTRL_MAP_INI, CTRL_MAP_INI_ECCO
1055        (moved to ctrl_init_variables)
1056    o cost/cost_init_varia.F :
1057      - remove ecco_cost_init_varia
1058        (moved to ecco_init_varia)
1059    o ctrl/ctrl_init_variables.F :
1060      - add CTRL_MAP_INI, CTRL_MAP_INI_ECCO
1061      - add CTRL_MAP_INI_GENARR, SEAICE_CTRL_MAP_INI
1062    o ctrl/ctrl_map_ini.F :
1063      - remove ctrl_map_ini_genarr, seaice_ctrl_map_ini
1064        (moved to ctrl_init_variables)
1065    o ctrl/ctrl_map_ini_ecco.F :
1066      - remove ECCO_PHYS (mv to ecco_init_varia)
1067      - remove seaice_ctrl_map_ini (mv to ctrl_init_variables)
1068    o ecco/ecco_ad_diff.list :
1069      - add ecco_init_varia.f
1070    o ecco/ecco_init_varia.F
1071      - new routine
1072    o pkg/streamice:
1073      - move call to STREAMICE_INITIALIZE_PETSC from the_model_main.F
1074        to streamice_init_fixed.F ; fix setting of STREAMICEisOn.
1075      - from model/src, only call pkg/streamice routines if useStreamIce is TRUE.
1076    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
1077      - fix bug causing negatives in GAD_SMOLARKIEWICZ_HACK, introduced 8/8/2014.
1078    o pkg/exf:
1079      - exf_getffields.F : add xxg_atemp, xxg_aqh, xxg_swdown, xxg_lwdown,
1080         xxg_precip capability
1081      - exf_wind.F : no need for ALLOW_WSPEED_CONTROL cpp switch
1082    o pkg/ctrl:
1083      - ctrl_pack.F, ctrl_unpack.F : omit (un)packing of undefined xx_gentim2d
1084    o model/src/load_fields_driver.F :
1085      - move call to CTRL_MAP_GENTIM2D ahead of BULKF_FIELDS_LOAD, EXF_GETFORCING
1086        so xx_gentim2d can be applied to e.g. exf fields in a timely manner.
1087    o OpenAD verification experiments:
1088      - Include explicitly AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, COST_OPTIONS.h, and CTRL_OPTIONS.h
1089        in src files (to enable to skip the ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h);
1090        for now, only in pkgs used in OpenAD verification experiments.
1091      - Change all except one (halfpipe_streamice) OpenAD experiments to use pkg
1092        specific option file (AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, COST_OPTIONS.h & CTRL_OPTIONS.h)
1093        instead of using ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h (with all relevant options in it).
1094        This applies to both TAF (*/code_ad/) and OpenAD (*/code_oad/) tests.
1095    o OpenAD verification tests:
1096      - finish removing ALLOW_AUTODIFF_OPENAD (replaced by ALLOW_OPENAD);
1097      - finish replacing ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC by ALLOW_AUTODIFF (except for
1098        tape/storage which are specific to TAF/TAMC) in pkgs used in OpenAD exp.
1099      - leave ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC undef in OpenAD verification tests (*/code_oad/)
1100        and remove local copy of "tamc.h" (needed only if ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC).
1101    o model/src & generic_advdiff:
1102      - change hard-coded loop-range in S/R APPLY_FORCING_T/S to set T & S
1103        forcing over 0:sNx+1, 0:sNy=1 (instead of just 1:sNx,1:sNy): Model
1104        dynamics requires valid tracer forcing only over tile interior but, for
1105        some diagnostics, may need to extend it over 1 point in tile halo region.
1106      - in gad_calc_rhs.F, update calls to gmredi_x/ytransport to get valid
1107        tendency over i,j_Min,Max range. This allows to simplfy i,j_Min,Max
1108        setting in temp/salt/ptracer_integrate.F
1109    o pkg/dic:
1110      - multiply tracer tendencies by maskInC (if ussing OBCS) before updating
1111        gchem tracers: this allows to skip the 2nd call to OBCS_APPLY_PTRACER
1112        in gchem_forcing_sep.F
1113    o pkg/autodiff & obcs:
1114      - add storage of current OB values for U & V (was already done for T & S).
1115    
1116    checkpoint65c (2014/08/30)
1117    o pkg/dic:
1118      - take out of dic_atmos.F the initialisation part (corresponding to istate=0)
1119        and move it to new S/R DIC_INI_ATMOS ; also simplify the dependencies for
1120        AD compilers (but still a Pb with multi-threading and Ajoint dependencies).
1121    o verification:
1122      - new experiment testing OBCS and DIC pkgs, using params & output from
1123        tutorial_global_oce_biogeo but limited to a sub-domain around Drake
1124        passage: take OBCS from the last year of a 2 yrs simulation and initial
1125        conditions from t=1.yr while keeping the same forcing.
1126    o model/src:
1127      - when allowFreezing=T, only reset below freezing initial Temp to Tfreezing
1128        (at any k) if checkIniTemp is not set to FALSE (default checkIniTemp=T).
1129    o pkg/diagnostics (Stats-Diags):
1130      - re-write S/R DIAGSTATS_CALC (more similar to TARGET_NEC_SX part) to:
1131        a) refine region where stats are computed, excluding where arrhFac=0 ;
1132        b) fix missing interior mask (use with OBCS) in 3-D fields statistics;
1133        c) extend regional stats over the region edges (for U or V pt location).
1134    o pkg/gchem:
1135      - add a (2nd) call to OBCS_APPLY_PTRACER in gchem_forcing_sep.F (needed since
1136        pkg/dic is currently changing/updating ptracers values beyond the OB).
1137    o verification (hs94):
1138      - convert Held & Suarez external_forcing.F (from hs94.cs, with Sigma-coords
1139        bits) to apply_forcing.F and undef USE_OLD_EXTERNAL_FORCING in experiments
1140        hs94.cs-32x32x5 and tutorial_held_suarez_cs ; also use the same version of
1141        apply_forcing.F in 2D hs94 (fwd, ad & oad) but keep LatLon hs94 unchanged.
1142    o pkg/ptracers:
1143      - implement Adams-Bashforth on pTracers (instead of on tracer tendency),
1144        switched on by setting PTRACERS_doAB_onGpTr=F (default set to doAB_onGtGs)
1145      - change exp4 secondary test (input.nlfs) to test AB on T & S & pTracer
1146        with AB-2 code (so that it get tested).
1147    o model/src:
1148      - allow to apply Adams-Bashforth on Temp & Salt (instead of on gT,gS)
1149        with AB-2 code (previously only available with AB-3 code).
1150        Also move the code (call to ADAMS_BASHFORTH S/R) form thermodynamics.F
1151        to temp/salt_integrate.F (since the 2nd part of gt/sNm1 update is done
1152        there, by calling CYCLE_AB_TRACER).
1153    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
1154      - change Tracer argument (drop bi,bj indices) in S/R GAD_CALC_RHS,
1155        GAD_C2_ADV_R, GAD_U3_ADV_R, GAD_C4_ADV_R, GAD_DIFF_R, GAD_BIHARM_R
1156        + also in GMREDI_X/Y/RTRANSPORT ; and update corresponding calls in
1157        S/R temp/salt/ptracers_integrate.F
1158    o model/src & pkg/ptracers:
1159      - remove common block variables gT,gS (in DYNVARS.h), except when
1160         USE_OLD_EXTERNAL_FORCING is defined; update TAF storage accordingly.
1161      - remove common block variable gPtr.
1162    o model/src & pkgs:
1163      - change gTracer (and/or tracer) argument (drop bi,bj indices) in S/R
1164         ADAMS_BASHFORTH(2&3), CYCLE_(AB_)TRACER, FREESURF_RESCALE_G,
1165         IMPLDIFF, SOLVE_TRIDIAGONAL & _PENTADIAGONAL, GAD_SOM_ADVECT,
1166         GAD_ADVECTION, GAD_CALC_RHS, GAD_IMPLICIT_R, TIMEAVE_CUMUL_DIF_1T
1167      + change accordingly all calling S/R.
1168      - use local temperature/salinity/ptracer tendency array (without bi,bj)
1169        in S/R temp/salt/ptracers_integrate.F
1170    o pkg/seaice:
1171      - move computation of stress contributions to rhsU/V in s/r seaice_lsr
1172        to separate s/r seaice_lsr_rhsu/v in order to be able to re-use code
1173      - make u/vIceC local variables if SEAICE_CGRID is defined only to be used
1174        in seaice_lsr
1175      - seaice_lsr.F: make local 4D arrays UXX, VYY, etc 2D
1176        in s/r seaice_lsr_calc_coeffs
1177    o pkg/mdsio:
1178      - in MDS_READ/WRITE_FIELD, stop if file-name (+prefix) is too long
1179        (e.g., > MAX_LEN_MBUF -90 ) or, in INI_MODEL_IO, if mdsioLocalDir is
1180        too long (e.g., > MAX_LEN_FNAM/2 )
1181    
1182    checkpoint65b (2014/08/12)
1183    o pkg/matrix:
1184      - pass, as argument, updated tracer field to S/R MATRIX_STORE_TENDENCY_EXP
1185    o model/src:
1186      - fix initialisation of geothermalFile; compile geothermal-flux code in
1187        natl_box verification experiment.
1188    o model/src & pkg/down_slope:
1189      - push the k loop inside S/R TIMESTEP_TRACER (now called outside the k loop).
1190      - in dwnslp_apply.F, update tracer tendency instead of the future tracer
1191        field and call S/R DWNSLP_APPLY before TIMESTEP_TRACER; this affects
1192        results at machine truncation level: update output of experiments
1193        global_ocean.90x40x15.dwnslp (FWD) and lab_sea.noseaicedyn (AD).
1194    o pkg/diagnostics (Stats-Diags):
1195      - do not cumulate the full volume when DIAGNOSTICS_FILL is
1196        called with bibjFlg < 0 (no increment of the counter for 2D/3D diag);
1197        This fix the mean statistics when DIAGNOSTICS_FILL is called multiple
1198        times (but Min,Max and StD are still wrong).
1199    o model/src:
1200      - add geothermal flux forcing: read in ini_forcing.F as time-constant
1201        field "geothermalFlux" applied in S/R APPLY_FORCING_T (apply_forcing.F)
1202    o model/src:
1203      - move CYCLE_TRACER calls from tracers_correction_step.F to temp/salt/ptracer
1204        _integrate.F so that, when leaving S/R THERMODYANMICS, theta,salt and pTrac
1205        arrays are already updated while adjustments (filters, conv.adjustment) are
1206        still applied later, in S/R TRACERS_CORRECTION_STEP.
1207    o model/src:
1208      - store in common bloc array "rhoInSitu" the virtual potential temperature
1209        anomaly that is used to compute geopotential: this make the atmos code
1210        more similar to ocean code which already uses rhoInSitu in calc_phi_hyd.F
1211    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F
1212      - rename integer variable ilcall to ipass (that's what it is called
1213        in the residual diagnostics
1214      - change time stepping for NPSEUDOTIMESTEP > 2 (does not change the
1215        default) for improved non-linear convergence of the first few steps
1216      - adjust a few comments and add new ones to explain some of the store
1217        directives
1218    o pkg/generic_advdiff (& ptracers):
1219      - re-work the code to check for valid advection scheme and for minimum
1220        size of overlap (now stored in local common bloc in gad_advscheme.F)
1221    o pkg/seaice: another attempt to make the adjoint work for sea ice dynamics
1222      - re-initialize more variables in seaice_lsr: u/vIceC, u/vIceNm1
1223      - add an auxilliary variable "bet" and fix store directives and keys in
1224        seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v, this seems to do the trick (i.e. more or
1225        less exact gradients in my tests); but there are still
1226        recomputation warning (although gradients are sort of OK), when
1227        SEAICE_LSR_VECTORIZE is not defined, so this flag and
1228        SEAICE_LSR_VECTORIZE_ZEBRA are recommended for efficiency.
1229      - update verification experiments lab_sea.
1230      - change some comments in S/R seaice_calc_viscosities
1231    o model/src:
1232      - if staggerTimeStep=T, always apply exchange to velocity field in
1233        do_stagger_fields_exchanges.F instead of in do_fields_blocking_exchanges.F
1234        (independent of using multi-dim advection or not); no effect on FWD run
1235        but affects AD results (at machine truncation level): update output of
1236        experiment 1D_ocean_ice_column (ad: 12 digits), hs94.1x64x5 (ad,oad: 13.d)
1237        and isomip (oad: 12.d).
1238    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
1239      - stop if doAB_onGtGs is set to FALSE but ignored
1240      - refine warning related to stability of tracer time-stepping
1241        regarding internal wave dynamics.
1242      - setting of AdamsBashforth_T,S when doAB_onGtGs=F: remove condition
1243        on staggerTimeStep & implicitIntGravWave (will now get a warning
1244        if potentially unstable).
1245    o pkg/kl10:
1246      - add new pkg "kl10" for mixing due to internal wave breaking, from
1247        http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1463500310000144
1248        (contribution from Jody Klymak), tested in verification experiment
1249        verification/internal_wave/input.kl10/
1250    o isomip experiment:
1251      - test pkg/shelfice with Non-Lin Free-Surf in one of the FWD set-up
1252        (input.htd) and update the output.
1253    o cd_code experiments:
1254      - use default cd_code options (#undef CD_CODE_NO_AB_MOMENTUM &
1255        #undef CD_CODE_NO_AB_CORIOLIS) in experiments: cfc_example (fwd)
1256        global_ocean.90x40x15 (ad & oad) and OpenAD (ad & oad) and
1257        update the corresponding output.
1258    o pkg/seaice:
1259      - reduce the number of include files and store directives in
1260        S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
1261      - change the order of loops in one case in S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagv
1262        (only for SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA defined), which allows me to
1263        get rid off one store directive (a TAF bug?)
1264      - add one more instance of ifdef SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA in
1265        S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagv to change the loop range for consistency
1266      - remove ilcall, m from parameter list of S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
1267      - fix a bug that affects the JFNK solver: replace sNx/y by i/jMax in
1268        S/R seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v (requires update of
1269        offline_exf_seaice/input.dyn_jfnk)
1270    
1271    checkpoint65a (2014/07/27)
1272    o model/src:
1273      - Non-Lin Free-Surf in p/z coords: allows hFacW,S to be larger than
1274        surrounding hFacC=1 @ edge of a step with different kSurfC on either side
1275        (topo in p-coords, ice-shelf in z-coords); update output of experiments
1276        tutorial_global_oce_in_p and isomip (both AD and OpenAD output).
1277    o model/src:
1278      - collect momentum forcing tendency into local 2-D array (passed as argument
1279        to apply_forcing S/R); this simplifies mom. Forcing diagnostics and CD_CODE
1280        parts in timestep.F (without CD_CODE_NO_AB_MOMENTUM defined = the default);
1281        affects results at machine truncation level (e.g., if using OBCS_SPONGE).
1282      - collect T & S forcing tendency into local 2-D array (passed as argument to
1283        apply_forcing S/R); add 3-D diagnostics for temp & salt forcing tendency.
1284        affects results at machine truncation level (e.g., ocean: if using
1285        SHORTWAVE_HEATING ; atmos: if using FrictionHeating or (atm_Rq<>0) moist
1286        correction due to vertical advection).
1287      - update output of experiments: fizhi-cs-32x32x40 (13 digits),
1288        global_ocean.cs32x15 (fwd: icedyn, seaice, thsice, all 3 @ 11d; adm & tml:
1289        seaice_dynmix & thsice, fwd grd @ 3 & 8), hs94.1x64x5 (ad grd @ 13),
1290        obcs_ctrl (ad & fwd grd @ 12 & 7).
1291    o pkg/ptracers & diagnostics:
1292      - use ptracers (short) name (instead of long one) to make ptracers diagnostics
1293        title (to avoid some unexpected truncation); sort out ptracers diags units.
1294      - collect ptracer forcing tendency into local 2-D array (passed as argument
1295        to apply_forcing S/R); add 3-D diagnostics for ptracers forcing tendency.
1296    
1297    checkpoint65 (2014/07/18)
1298    o pkg/fizhi:
1299      - add parenthesis around fizhi tendencies in fizhi_tendency_apply.F: this
1300        affects results at machine truncation level. Update output of experiments
1301        fizhi-cs-32x32x40 (12 digits for cg2d) & fizhi-cs-aqualev20 (13 digits).
1302    o pkg/seaice: more clean up
1303      - rename TAF common block tapes to be more consistent and remove
1304        unnecessary duplicates
1305      - add store directives to remove more recomputations, but use smaller
1306        tapes (and adjust keys) when SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER is undefined.
1307        The idea behind this flag is to reduce the memory footprint when the
1308        adjoint of the LSR is not required. As of now, defining the flag
1309        SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER increases 4 common block tapes for 2D field by
1310        a factor of SOLV_MAX_FIXED (=500 by default in SEAICE_SIZE.h).
1311        For experiment offline_exf_seaice, this means on a linux box with gfortran
1312        nearly a factor of 10 (but keep in mind there is mostly seaice code in
1313        this experiment):
1314        > size mitgcmuv_ad
1315        text    data        bss     dec        hex
1316        5100659 1216  220458952  225560827  d71c8fb
1317        5339425 1200 1868783272 1874123897 6fb4dc79 (SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER)
1318        but only a moderate increase of 36% for global_ocean.cs32x15:
1319        text    data        bss     dec        hex
1320        6695027 1648 1014578664 1021275339 3cdf6ccb
1321        6695203 1648 1382505320 1389202171 52cd8afb (SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER)
1322      - note: there are still recomputations in global_ocean.cs32x15 and
1323        offline_exf_seaice and the gradient agreement changes (gets a
1324        little worse) for global_ocean.cs32x15 (-> update output_adm.seaice.txt)
1325      - in general, the AD gradients still are wrong
1326    o OpenAD
1327      - clean up code_oad/ directories somewhat by moving files
1328        dontCompile, dontTransform, keepOriginal to OAD_support/
1329    o model/src:
1330      - using MOM fluxform and Non-Lin Free-Surf with momDissip_In_AB=F
1331        (not currently tested): add dissipation terms before NLFS rescaling of
1332        tendencies (previously done after).
1333    o pkg/diagnostics:
1334      - write stats-diags in ascii file with more digits (same as in monitor).
1335    o pkg/down_slope:
1336      - drop the bi,bj dimension of argument recip_hFac in S/R DWNSLP_APPLY; with
1337        NLFS (not tested), use new recip_hFac value in order to conserve tracer.
1338    o model/src:
1339      - new file "apply_forcing.F" containing all the code previously in
1340        external_forcing.F, but with new argument list: pass, as new argument,
1341        the current level tendency array to update (instead of a direct update
1342        of the common bloc array). Change the corresponding calls.
1343      - add CPP option USE_OLD_EXTERNAL_FORCING (default is undef) to use
1344        EXTERNAL_FORCING_U,V,T,S subroutines (for backward compatibility).
1345    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr, a little bit of clean up
1346      - rearrange some code blocks, so that now all calculations for
1347        setting up the right-hand-sides done within one single block
1348        (I find that easier to read and understand)
1349      - rearrange freedrift-code to reduce the number of ifdefs
1350      - adjust some indentations and comments
1351    
1352    checkpoint64z (2014/07/10)
1353    o model/src and several pkgs:
1354      - change argument list of all S/R called from external_forcing.F and
1355        called from ptracers_forcing.F (renamed to ptracers_apply_forcing.F)
1356        to pass, as argument, the current level tendency array to update
1357        (instead of a direct update of the common bloc array).
1358      - change also (in the same way) argument list of PTRACERS_APPLY_FORCING;
1359      - rename taueddy_external_forcing.f to taueddy_tendency_apply.F
1360    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F
1361      - always initialize local arrays in seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
1362      - add more local tapes to seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
1363      - move storing u/vice(:,:,bi,bj) out of seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v, but
1364        keep it in bi/bj loop; this seems to be essential
1365      - gradients are still wrong but only by 4-7 orders of magnitude
1366        instead of 15 orders of magnitude, lab_sea improves a little
1367    o pkg/seaice
1368      - (pkg/autodiff) remove storing/restoring of seaiceMaskU/V that
1369        generates unnecessary code in seaice_lsr_ad
1370      - add more store directives in seaice_lsr to avoid unnecessary code
1371        in seaice_lsr_ad
1372      - exclude some residual computations in seaice_lsr when
1373        ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC is defined in order to avoid unnecessary code
1374        in seaice_lsr_ad
1375      - add more storing, a new tape (model/src/the_main_loop.F) and
1376        another key for SEAICE_LSR_VECTORIZE_ZEBRA (the local keys ilockey
1377        and klockey should be checked by a specialist)
1378      - modify ( define SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR and SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER )
1379        and update lab_sea after previous changes in pkg/seaice below
1380    o pkg/autodiff:
1381      - introduce useSmoothCorrel2DinAdMode, SEAICEapproxLevInAd, and
1382        viscFacInAd : run time parameters allowing for adjoint switches
1383        note : logic for useSmoothCorrel2DinAdMode is in ctrl_readparms.F
1384    o pkg/ecco:
1385      - introduce cost_gencost_boxmean.F that computes a box mean
1386        temperature (for use in adjoint sensitivity studies).
1387    o model/src/set_defaults.F : initialize viscFacAdj to 1.
1388    o pkg/mom_common/mom_calc_visc.F:
1389      - ifdef ALLOW_AUTODIFF then include viscFacAdj factor.
1390    o pkg/seaice/seaice_summary.F:
1391      - statement for SEAICEadjMODE now in autodiff_readparms.F
1392    o pkg/seaice:
1393      - remove some store directives and add new ones in an effort to get
1394        finally rid off the recomputation warnings. This is successful
1395        when SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR ***and*** SEAICE_LSR_ADJOINT_ITER are
1396        defined (i.e. no extensive recomputation warnings left), but there
1397        are still too many recomputations on the solver iteration level
1398      - define SEAICE_VECTORISZE_LSR in offline_exf_seaice/code_ad/SEAICE_OPTIONS.h
1399      - move definition of MPSEUDOTIMESTEPS into TAMC-block in
1400        SEAICE_SIZE.h
1401      - add a store directive in S/R seaice_calc_viscosities
1402    o pkg/seaice (ITD code):
1403      - fix definition of Hlimit for multi-threaded case
1404      - use double precision arithmetic to compute Hlimit: this affects results;
1405        update output of experiment seaice_itd.
1406    o replace content of verification/seaice_itd
1407      - instead of a 1D column use the configuration of offline_exf_seaice
1408        to test the ice thickness distribution code with ridging
1409      - this is a first shot at this experiment
1410      - change of some defaults of ridging parameters SEAICEhStar (from
1411        100 to 25) and SEAICEmuRidging (from 5 to 3) in seaice_readparms.F
1412        and lot of new comments.
1413    
1414    checkpoint64y (2014/06/20)
1415    o pkg/seaice/seaice_reg_ridge.F:
1416      - modify the regularization of very small volumes of ice; only check
1417        total volume HEFF, and do not apply correction to individual ice
1418        classes because that leads to funny patterns in the heat and fw-fluxes
1419        into the ocean. Adjust seaice_itd/results/output.txt
1420      - replace nITD by SEAICE_multDim in loop-ranges
1421    o pkg/exf:
1422      - add code to process the case field period = -12. with UV interpolation.
1423      - move debug print (formerly active when exf_verbose=T) from EXF_getFFieldRec
1424        into S/R that calls it (i.e., exf_set_gen.F, exf_set_uv.F & obcs_exf_load.F)
1425    o verification/global_with_exf:
1426      - switch all fields period to -12. (was previously untested) in input/data.exf
1427        (but keep secondary test ".yearly" unchanged); update the reference output.
1428    o pkg/cal:
1429      - new calendar type "noLeapYear" for 365 days calendar without any leap year.
1430    o pkg/exf:
1431      - new integer parameter "exf_debugLev" (default set to main model debugLevel)
1432        to replace logical switch "exf_verbose"
1433      - report in STDOUT when loading a new record (if exf_debugLev >= 3)
1434    o pkg/sbo:
1435      - update from Katherine Quinn: evaluate mass directly from density and SSH
1436        (budget using Finite Volume method) instead of from bottom pressure.
1437      - allow testreport to collect few selected SBO output ; tested in exp.
1438        global_ocean.90x40x15 (after updating the results, to include SBO output).
1439      - fix some multi-threading issues (in output part).
1440    o model/src & most packages:
1441      - always call {PKG}_READPARMS even if corresponding use{PKG}=F;
1442      - in {PKG}_READPARMS, in case use{PKG}=F: add a call to new S/R
1443        PACKAGES_UNUSED_MSG to print a weak warning when parameter file
1444        "data.{pkg}" exist ; and leave the S/R (return) just after.
1445      - more standard LAND pkg interface (land_init_fixed.F, land_check.F).
1446        + call LAND_READPARMS from packages_readparms.F
1447    o pkg/seaice:
1448      - remove code that resets useThSice in S/R seaice_readparms and
1449        replace it by a warning in S/R seaice_check
1450      - remove parameter MULTDIM, replace with nITD and runtime
1451        parameter SEAICE_multDim (still hard-wired to nITD if
1452        SEAICE_ITD is defined)
1453    
1454    checkpoint64x (2014/05/24)
1455    o verification/lab_sea:
1456      - update adjoint and TLM output following changes to pkg/salt_plume
1457      - un-do the update after putting back local recip_Cp in few places.
1458    o pkg/salt_plume: modifications by An Nguyen:
1459      - add capability to do brine rejection (salt-plume) as function of
1460        volume+tracers (instead of only salinity tracer).
1461      - conserve volume by exchanging volume from each kLev to above to
1462        accommodate in-coming brine volume
1463      - store surface and klev exchanged fraction + volume in 4 new 3-d arrays
1464      - switch KPP surf buoyancy due to brine forcing to 3-d
1465        (3 more 3-d arrays, 2 for SPforcing[T,S], 1 for boplume)
1466      - add salt_plume_volfrac, salt_plume_apply, salt_plume_tendency_apply_t
1467      - unrelatedly, also add ad-hoc capability to vary salt_plume scheme
1468        in East/West Arctic.
1469    o pkg/sbo:
1470      - incorporate modifications from Katherine Quinn to enable the use of sbo
1471        pkg in ECCO-v4 set-up ; remove SBO-TimeAve output ; add monitor-like
1472        output for future testreport verification (unfinished).
1473    o pkg/atm_phys:
1474      - change diagnostics (AtPh_Trf & AtPh_Qrf) of DARGAN_BETTSMILLER S/R:
1475        skip the reseting of t_ref & q_ref to initial t & q ; this preserve the
1476        output of S/R CAPECALCNEW (Parcel temp & q) for diagnostics.
1477    o pkg/seaice
1478      seaice_calc_ice_strength.F: modify expression to avoid divisions
1479        (affects truncation)
1480      seaice_do_ridging.F: clean up the insectarium
1481      - fix a bug that was compensated by areaScaling (-> remove areaScaling code)
1482      - added SEAICEsnowFracRidge to redistributed snow (2nd bug)
1483      - set closing/openingRate to zero where no extra iteration is need (3rd bug)
1484      - add some debugging information and error messages (warnings)
1485    o model/src: modifications relatd to atmosphere p*:
1486      - Switch to more accurate p* coordinate slope term (calc_grad_phi_hyd.F)
1487      - With p* or Sigma-P, use constant reference Pot.Temp (thetaConst) instead
1488        of vertical profile tRef in geopotential background and anomaly.
1489      - Acount for true p* correction in theta <-> T conversion in pkg/aim_v23
1490        and pkg/atm_phys.
1491      - Update FWD output of experiments: aim.5l_cs (x2), fizhi-cs-32x32x40,
1492        fizhi-cs-aqualev20, fizhi-gridalt-hs, tutorial_held_suarez_cs, cpl_aim+ocn.
1493    o pkg/seaice: fix a bug in seaice_prepare_ridging.F, forgot a sqrt
1494    o pkg/ptracers: compute ptracer source/sink due to linear free surface.
1495        not used right now, but can be used in BGC packages to fix conservation.
1496    o pkg/dic, pkg/gchem: move tracer_meanarea to gchem, so it can be used by
1497        other packages too.
1498    o pkg/seaice/seaice_calc_ice_strength.F: replace SEAICE_rhoSnow by
1499        SEAICE_rhoIce in the Rothrock (1975)-type strength calculations (bug fix)
1500    o model/src:
1501      - since we have several heat capacity (even in model/src), define "recip_Cp"
1502        as local variable (no longer in common block) to avoid any confusion.
1503      - add thetaConst in PARAMS.h (to be used with pStar or sigma-P coords).
1504    o pkg/exf:
1505      - from Jeff Scott: add option (#define EXF_CALC_ATMRHO) to calculate local
1506        air density as function of air Temp, Humidity and atm pressure.
1507    
1508    checkpoint64w (2014/05/02)
1509    o verification:
1510      - update output_adm.txt files for experiment global_ocean.cs32x15 (seaice &
1511        seaice_dynmix) and lab_sea (primary test & noseaicedyn): moving/changing
1512        code from seaice_growth.F & seaice_advdiff.F to new ridging routines
1513        seaice_reg_ridge.F seaice_do_ridging.F affects AD gradient
1514        (down to 8-7 matching digits for global_ocean and 5-6 for lab_sea).
1515    o model/src: for atmosphere in p* coords:
1516      - store factor rStarFacC**atm_kappa (= pStarFacK) in common block
1517      - implement more accurate p* coordinate slope term (in calc_grad_phi_hyd.F),
1518        but not yet activated.
1519    o pkg/seaice: fix restart problem for ITD with new ice strength parameterisation:
1520      - move computation of opnWtrFrac = 1-AREA to before computing ice strength
1521      - this changes the results (but not for any verification experiment, because
1522        none tests this), but avoids having an extra field in the restart files
1523    o pkg/seaice: remove global variable TICE (not needed)
1524      - replace by TICES or local variable where necessary (cost_seaice_test,
1525        seaice_diagnostics_state)
1526      - move copying TICE to TICES from seaice_check_pickup to seaice_read_pickup
1527      - use specific read/write routines for reading and writing individual leves
1528        of a multilevel field
1529    o pkg/ctrl & model/inc:
1530      - move additional anomaly fields of control vars (related to options:
1531         ALLOW_KAPGM_CONTROL, ALLOW_KAPREDI_CONTROL and ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG_CONTROL)
1532        from DYNVARS.h into new header file: CTRL_FIELDS.h
1533    o pkg/seaice: some small modifications to the ridging code
1534      - make fw2ObyRidge a global variable and add the freshwater flux to
1535        seaice_growth
1536      - pass actual thickness from seaice_prepare_ridging, so that it is
1537        computed only in one place and compute it in the same way as in
1538        seaice_growth
1539      - initialise more fields in seaice_do_ridging that where cause floating
1540        point exceptions over land
1541    o pkg/seaice: preparations for ridging code and first real ridging code
1542      - move most of "PART 1" of S/R seaice_growth into a new and separate
1543        S/R seaice_reg_ridge that will both regularize the state variable after
1544        advection call the actual ridging routine;
1545      - requires to make 5 fields global fields: d_HEFFbyNEG,d_HSNWbyNEG,
1546        d_AREAbyRLX,d_HEFFbyRLX,saltFluxAdjust;
1547      - remove ridging code from seaice_advdiff
1548      - clean up remaining part 1 of seaice_growth in an attempt to make it
1549        more readable (this is probably subjective)
1550      - call seaice_itd_redist once in the initialisation phase to have the initial
1551        conditions in the correct category
1552      - finally: add new ridging routine for ITD code
1553    
1554    checkpoint64v (2014/04/11)
1555    o pkg/ecco:
1556      - add runtime parameters mdt[start,end]date[1,2]
1557      - rename variable "tpmean" as "mdt" and "topexmeanfile" as "mdtdatfile"
1558    o pkg/seaice:
1559      - make deltaC a global variable, so that it can be used in ridging code
1560      - first step towards ridging: introduce new routines that compute
1561        ice strength based on ridging parameters
1562      - add diagnostic for HSNOWITD
1563      - add opnWtrFrac as a global variable (required for ridging scheme)
1564    o pkg/salt_plume + pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F
1565      - add SALT_PLUME_IN_LEADS flag to activate pkg/salt_plume only when ice
1566        AREA exceeds a threshold (code contributed by I.Fenty in 2011)
1567    o verification/hs94.1x64x5:
1568      - leave ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC undefined in code_oad/AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h
1569      - do not use ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h anymore for TAF & OpenAD Adjoint tests.
1570    o autodiff:
1571      - Start to include explicitly AUTODIFF_OPTIONS.h, COST_OPTIONS.h,
1572        and CTRL_OPTIONS.h in src files (to enable to skip the ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h)
1573        For now, only in pkgs used in verification/hs94.1x64x5.
1574      - Replace ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC by ALLOW_AUTODIFF (except for tape/storage
1575        which are specific to TAF/TAMC).
1576      - Replace ALLOW_AUTODIFF_OPENAD by ALLOW_OPENAD:
1577        since ALLOW_OPENAD is defined in PACKAGES_CONFIG.h (any time pkg/openad
1578        is compiled), this simplifies/reduces which *_OPTIONS.h file to include.
1579      - OpenAD: change Makefile to generate the appropriate AD_CONFIG.h when
1580        building mitgcmuv_ad (make adAll).
1581    o pkg/ecco:
1582      - cost_gencost_seaicev4.F:
1583         reformulate proxy cost as function of sst and local param SEAICE_freeze
1584         change cost names from siv4-[sst,vol] to siv4-[deconc,exconc]
1585      - add stop statement if old names siv4-[sst,vol] are used
1586      - add snapshots + cost reports for atmospheric longwave
1587      - remove factor 0.1 in front of wtau[u,v]
1588      - replace never used flag ALLOW_TMI_COST_CONTRIBUTION with
1589         ALLOW_TMI_SST_COST_CONTRIBUTION
1590    o pkg/atm_phys:
1591      - add some diagnostics for Short-wave and for convection S/R.
1592    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth:
1593      - fix a bug in the lateral melt parameterization for SEAICE_ITD
1594        in seaice_growth; tempFrz needs to be computed inside the i/j-loop
1595      - rearrange loop order for better vector code in the same code block
1596      - rewrite the floeDiameter formula to have fewer divisions
1597      -  (miraculously) none of this changes the results of seaice_itd
1598    o pkg/smooth:
1599      - move param smooth2Ddiffnbt to pkg/ecco
1600    o pkg/salt_plume:
1601      - salt_plume_frac.F:
1602         clean up local param names
1603         reformulate (1-frac) to frac; original 1-frac was based on swfrac code
1604    o pkg/rw:
1605      - add RS version of S/R READ_MFLDS_LEV.
1606    o pkg/streamice:
1607      - fix the restart test by writing/reading pickup_streamice files.
1608    o pkg/seaice:
1609      - refine checks for jfnk-related parameters
1610      - comment out if statement with SEAICEuseIMEX parameter as long as there
1611        is no IMEX code to avoid confusion and surprises
1612    
1613    checkpoint64u (2014/03/07)
1614    o verification/MLAdjust:
1615      - rename secondary test suffix:
1616         1.leith  -> A4FlxF  + switch to flux-form & add side-drag
1617         0.leithD -> AhFlxF  + switch to flux-form
1618         0.smag   -> AhVrDv  (use Vorticity-Div. visc form) + add side-drag
1619         0.leith  -> AhStTn  (use Strain-Tension visc form) + add side-drag
1620    o pkg/mom_vecinv:
1621      - remove unused arguments from S/R MOM_VI_HDISSIP & MOM_HDISSIP (as it used
1622        to be before mom_calc_visc.F)
1623      - skip the call to MOM_CALC_TENSION & MOM_CALC_STRAIN if not needed.
1624      - add 2nd copy of vort3 & strain that knows about lateral BC (free/no slip):
1625        this is simpler for the adjoint and for diagnostics.
1626    o model/src + pkg/momentum:
1627      - add input files for  2-D additional Western and Southern cell-edge wall
1628         (e.g., to add "thin-wall" where it is =1).
1629      - fix sideDrag option for thin-walls with Non-Lin Free-Surf
1630        using 2nd hFacZ that is computed from initial (fix domain) hFac
1631      - known limitations of thin wall implementation: not yet coded for sigma
1632        coords; not working with CD-scheme neither.
1633    o pkg/seaice:
1634      - rename recently introduced parameters from (wrong name) AB to
1635        BDF (backward difference time discretisation)
1636      - retire runtime parameters SEAICEuseAB2, SEAICE_abEps
1637    o tools/adjoint_options:
1638      - remove setting of "OPENAD=true" (now set by command line "genmake2 -oad")
1639    
1640    checkpoint64t (2014/02/01)
1641    o pkg/ecco
1642      - add compile flag ALLOW_GENCOST_TIMEVARY_WEIGHT in ECCO_OPTIONS.h and
1643        runtime logical flag gencost_timevaryweight to read daily sea-ice sigma
1644      - replace hard-coded record number and period which only work for monthly
1645        with read-in runtime param that works for other periods (month,day,year)
1646    o pkg/thsice
1647      - corrected store directive fixes thsice adjoint gradient checks
1648    o genmake2 & testreport:
1649      - add genmake2 option "-oad" to generate a Makefile for OpenAD built and
1650        in this case, use tools/adjoint_options/adjoint_oad as default AD optfile.
1651        Update testreport accordingly. No need to set "export OPENAD=true"
1652        in adjoint_options/adjoint_oad anymore (will be removed later).
1653    o pkg/shelfice:
1654      - put T & S shelfice forcing into model surfaceForcing_T,_S (for now,
1655        only if SHELFICEboundaryLayer=F); Change model/src/external_forcing.F
1656        so that surface forcing applies to k=kSurf if using pkg/shelfice.
1657    o pkg/ctrl, pkg/grdchk, pkg/ecco:
1658      - Changes to make GENARR more modular (i.e. invisible if not used)
1659    o model/src/temp_integrate.F and salt_integrate.F
1660      - re-include store directives that were removed on Dec 27th.
1661    o model/src/external_forcing_surf.F
1662      - add storage directives for EmPmR and PmEpR to avoid recomputation of
1663        seaice_model in the adjoint that is problematic when seaice_model is
1664        turned off in the adjoint. The resolved issue dated back to July when
1665        EXTERNAL_FORCING_SURF call was moved.
1666        Update global_ocean.cs32x15/*/output_adm.seaice_dynmix.txt accordingly.
1667    o pkg/exf/exf_check.F
1668      - fix a small bug again (originally found by Wentao Liu, now found again)
1669      - streamline error output
1670    o pkg/streamice and aim_v23:
1671      - replace a few "_EXCH_XY_RL (" with "_EXCH_XY_RL(", so that
1672        Apple's /usr/bin/cpp knows what to do:
1673        Apple LLVM version 5.0 (clang-500.2.79) (based on LLVM 3.3svn)
1674        Target: x86_64-apple-darwin13.0.0
1675    
1676    checkpoint64s (2014/01/05)
1677    o tools/adjoint_options:
1678      - switch to fastopt.net TAF server (instead of default fastopt.de) for
1679        AD optfiles adjoint_diva & adjoint_f95 (similar to adjoint_default).
1680    o model/src:
1681      - remove some unnecessary TAF storage directives in forward_step.F and
1682        in dynamics.F (note: not always removed by TAF, e.g., double storage
1683        of kappaRU,kappaRV in former version of dynamics.F).
1684    o model/src & pkg/ptracers:
1685      - call directly GAD_IMPLICIT_R & IMPLDIFF + DWNSLP_APPLY from temp_integrate.F
1686        salt_integrate.F and ptracers_integrate.F (instead of from thermodynamics.F)
1687        and remove ptracers_dwnslp_apply.F & ptracers_implicit.F
1688      - call MATRIX_STORE_TENDENCY_EXP for each tracer (in ptracers_integrate.F)
1689      - add fZon & fMer as output argument of S/R GAD_CALC_RHS.
1690      - update TAF AD-output of experiments global_ocean.90x40x15 (13 for AD-grad).
1691    o useSingleCpuInput separates single-CPU input from single-CPU output;
1692        for now only implemented for in exf_interp_read.F
1693    o verification/advect_xy:
1694      - fix missing EXCH call in local version of ini_salt.F and update output.
1695    o momentum diagnostics:
1696      - fix which deltaT is used in Total-Tendency diagnostics.
1697      - fix typo in diagnostics for momentum tendency from AB.
1698    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F: fix an initialisation bug for the
1699        SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA option that lead to NaNs on a NEC-SX8
1700    
1701    checkpoint64r (2013/12/08)
1702    o verification/*/results:
1703      - Update reference output of experiments that were passing with just 13 digits
1704         (make it easier to detect future changes in results)
1705    o model/src & pkg/ptracers:
1706      - move calls to GAD_ADVECTION (Multi-Dim advection) from thermodynamics.F to
1707        inside temp_integrate.F and salt_integrate.F and from ptracers_advection.F
1708        to inside ptracers_integrate.F ; remove ptracers_advection.F
1709    o coupling interface pkgs:
1710        [atm_compon_interf, ocn_compon_interf & atm_ocn_coupler]
1711      - change the config check to test the agreement of Ocean Depth
1712        with ATM land/sea mask (instead of ATM orography);
1713      - send to coupler the number of coupler time-steps to do for this run:
1714        this allows to check for consistency and don't need anymore to be
1715        specified in parameter file "data";
1716      in coupler:
1717      - check consistency of RunOff map versus Ocean Depth and ATM land/sea mask.
1718      - improve report to log-file of config setting (pass log-file unit to few S/R)
1719    o pkg/compon_communic:
1720      - add coupling send/receive for non-tiled integer vector;
1721      - add S/R to check and stop if any proc has an error (similar to
1722        eesupp/src/stop_if_error.F but single thread and across Comm_World).
1723    o pkg/exch2:
1724      - in exch2*_get_rx[1,2]: use new list "W2_tileIndex" to replace search
1725        through list of all tiles my proc owns.
1726    o model/src:
1727      - AUTODIFF only: in calc_adv_flow.F, recompute rTransKp (instead of copying
1728        from rTrans) to simplify dependencies (no need to store rTrans anymore in
1729        calling S/R); this affects AD results at machine truncation level:
1730        update AD-output (TAF) of experiments: 1D_ocean_ice_column,
1731        bottom_ctrl_5x5 & obcs_ctrl (12 digits for AD grad, same FWD grad).
1732    o tools/build_options:
1733      - simplify Warnings options (-ieee & -devel cases) in linux_amd64_gfortran
1734    o coupling interface pkgs:
1735        [compon_communic, atm_compon_interf & ocn_compon_interf]
1736      - move declaration of local array "ibuf" out of header file "CPLR_SIG.h"
1737        to each S/R that needs it; remove un-used variables.
1738      - change component tile registration (cpl_register.F in both compon_interf
1739        and mitcomponent_tile_register.F) to pass the full list of tiles
1740        information (including bi,bj) in 1 vector (instead of in a bi,bj matrix).
1741      - with pkg/exch2: adopt the same convention used for I/O to define mapping
1742        towards coupler global array (unless W2_useE2ioLayOut=F):
1743         a) can now use different tiling between atm & ocn comp.
1744         b) no needs to modify the run-Off map when changing tiling (was needed
1745            even if using the same tiling between atm & ocn).
1746         c) will allow to run with blank-tiles in 1 component (e.g., for ocean
1747            full land tiles); not yet tested.
1748      - check for valid mapping from comp. tile to coupler global array
1749      - improve report of tile registration results to log file.
1750    o pkg/exch2:
1751      - in eesupp/src/eeboot.F: move call to W2_EEBOOT before Coupler
1752        tile-registration (CPL_REGISTER);
1753      - activate (un-comment) definition and setting of "W2_tileIndex" list to
1754        store the local bi,bj indices of each tile;
1755      - also print bi,bj in local report to log file;
1756      - fix pkg/debug/debug_cs_corner_uv.F for the case nSy > 1 (left from
1757        Jun 2009 modif of pkg/exch2).
1758    o testing on baudelaire:
1759      - run 2 tests at a time: no significant slow down (since enough cpu) and
1760        get the full set of test done earlier
1761      - switch the ifort test to "-devel" ; run the OpenAD test everyday.
1762    o model/src/thermodynamics.F and routines called from it:
1763      - pkg/gmredi: gmredi_residual_flow.F (replacing gmredi_calc_uvflow.F &
1764        gmredi_calc_wflow.F) to update eulerian velocity (input) into residual
1765        velocity (outp) by adding bolus velocity.
1766      - model/src: calc_adv_flow.F (replacing calc_common_factors.F) to compute
1767        mass transport from velocity + lateral grid cell area
1768      - rename calc_gt.F to temp_integrate.F (includes call to TIMESTEP_TRACER)
1769      - rename calc_gs.F to salt_integrate.F (includes call to TIMESTEP_TRACER)
1770     in thermodynamics.F
1771      - remove k from thermodynamics.F and move it to temp_integrate.F
1772        salt_integrate.F and ptracers_integrate.F (now done inside the tracer
1773        loop).
1774      - compute locally (in thermodynamics.F) 3-D velocity field that is used to
1775        advect tracers; pass it as argument to GAD_ADVECTION, GAD_SOM_ADVECT,
1776        PTRACERS_ADVECTION, TEMP_INTEGRATE, SALT_INTEGRATE, PTRACERS_INTEGRATE,
1777        GAD_IMPLICIT_R and PTRACERS_IMPLICIT
1778      - update AD-output (TAF & OAD) of experiments: 1D_ocean_ice_column,
1779        global_ocean.90x40x15, tutorial_global_oce_biogeo and
1780        tutorial_tracer_adjsens (+ TLM output).
1781    o tools/OAD_support and (verification/*/) code_oad:
1782      - OAD_support/cb2mGetModules.csh: add PACKAGES_CONFIG.h in header file to
1783        module conversion ; remove unneeded CPP_EEOPTIONS.h.
1784      - code_oad/CPP_OPTIONS.h: remove PACKAGES_CONFIG.h and use a more standard
1785        version (closer to model/inc/CPP_OPTIONS.h).
1786    o model/src:
1787      - remove parameter "useOldFreezing" from PARAMS.h and push it to the
1788        retired list of parameters (routine FREEZE has been replace by surface
1789        freezing (10.yrs ago) and by pkg/frazil (interior freezing).
1790    o pkg/gmredi:
1791      - add option (GM_CALC_TRANSP_FROM_VEL) to compute transport directly from
1792        velocity (same scheme but affects machine truncation) for GM_AdvForm.
1793      - update output of FWD experiments: front_relax.bvp,
1794        global_ocean.90x40x15.dwnslp, global_ocean.cs32x15 and ideal_2D_oce.
1795    
1796    checkpoint64q (2013/11/17)
1797    o verification:
1798      - generate new output on baudelaire (gfortran, -ieee) for OpenAD experiments
1799        tutorial_global_oce_biogeo and global_ocean.90x40x15.
1800      - generate new output (growth & melt) for seaice_itd experiment after
1801        updating the input pickup_seaice files (previously wrong).
1802    o pkg/cost:
1803      - define a "final cost function" for each tile, and use GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL
1804        (instead of _GLOBAL_SUM_RL) to get the final cost from all procs & threads:
1805        o this fixes global-sum value if multi-threads (since GLOBAL_SUM_RL
1806          cannot be applied to var in common block).
1807        o allows to get results independent of tile-per-proc setting (if using
1808          slower GLOBAL_SUM_SEND_RECV option).
1809      - update accordingly: seaice_cost_final.F, shelfice_cost_final.F,
1810        thsice_cost_final.F and ecco_cost_final.F (this one affects lab_sea
1811        forward gradients: update output).
1812      - update */code_oad/externalDummies.F by adding dummy GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL
1813        S/R and, for most exp., also comment out GLOBAL_SUM_R8.
1814    o pkg/mom_common:
1815      - move to pkg/mom_common and model/src (previously in tutorial_deep_convection
1816        code) 2nd version of isotropic 3-D Smagorinsky code interface: strain and
1817        viscosity are locally declared in dynmics.F and pass as argument to CALC_GW;
1818        ensure that all field value that are used are set.
1819    o tutorial_deep_convection (smag3d):
1820      - add missing scaling in mom_calc_smag_3d.F;
1821      - set smag3D_coeff in input.smag3d such that results do not change.
1822    o pkg/dic:
1823      - change dic_cost.F to compute cost on each tile first and then apply
1824        GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL: this affects forward gradient of AD experiments
1825        tutorial_dic_adjoffline & tutorial_global_oce_biogeo; update output.
1826      - remove kLev argument and use GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL in tracer_meanarea.
1827    o eesupp/src & pkg/mdsio:
1828      - remove gather/scatter_vector.F (from eesupp) and mdsio_read/writevector.F
1829        (from pkg/mdsio) since they are no longer used for tape IO.
1830      - move simple C subroutine "setdir.c" from pkg/compon_communic to eesupp/src
1831        (+ keep a copy in pkg/atm_ocn_coupler).
1832    o verification/isomip:
1833      - split domain in 8 squared tiles (instead of just 2) for FWD, AD & OAD tests.
1834    o tools/build_options:
1835      - optfile linux_amd64_ifort11, fast (no ieee) case:
1836        to get a working restart for all experiments, add "-fp-model source"
1837        to FOPTIM (also remove "-opt-streaming-stores auto" <- this is the default).
1838    
1839    checkpoint64p (2013/10/20)
1840    o pkg/autodiff:
1841      - adread_adwrite.F: when type and length do not match ALLOW_AUTODIFF_WHTAPEIO
1842        criteria, return to simple (default) tape IO format.
1843    o pkg/mdsio (+ eesupp/src):
1844      - rewrite/simplify tape-IO S/R (new S/R MDS_READ/WRITE_TAPE replace
1845        previous MDSREAD/WRITEVECTOR) with 2 array argument from each type (R4/R8);
1846      - fix globalFile and singleCpuIO options using simpler global mapping.
1847      - new pairs of scatter/gather vector S/R (one for each type, generated from
1848        template) corresponding to simpler global mapping.
1849      - adread_write.F: switch to new S/R (but leave old calls commented) and write
1850        to globalFile when parameter globalFiles is set to True.
1851      - switch on useSingleCpuIO in AD experiments: global_ocean.90x40x15 & isomip.
1852    o pkg/autodiff:
1853      - adread_adwrite.F: add a hack for RS arrays (when RS=real*4);
1854        with ALLOW_AUTODIFF_WHTAPEIO defined, since corresponding (real*4) is
1855        missing, just add a STOP if array type do not match.
1856    o pkg/exf:
1857      - to allow to use seaice-fraction from pkg/exf in other pkgs than pkg/seaice:
1858         rename CPP option EXF_ALLOW_SEAICE_RELAX to EXF_SEAICE_FRACTION
1859         and rename array obsSIce to exf_iceFraction.
1860    o tutorial_deep_convection:
1861      - add 1rst version of isotropic 3-D Smagorinsky code (from Louis-Philippe),
1862        for now all in this exp. code dir.
1863      - add secondary test using Smag-3D viscosity (keep very low backgroud visc for
1864        testing) and flux-limter advection scheme for Temp. (no explicit diffusion).
1865    o eesupp/src:
1866      - added SINGLE_DISK_IO option because reading of parameter files on
1867        very large number of processors did not work with existing set-up
1868    
1869    checkpoint64o (2013/09/25)
1870    o pkg/atm_phys & atm_compon_interf:
1871      - allows for coupling of gray-atmosphere (atm_phys) with ocean.
1872    o tools/build_options:
1873      - switch from "-fPIC" to "-mcmodel=medium" in optfiles: linux_amd64_gfortran
1874        & linux_amd64_ifort11 and in linux_amd64_g77 & linux_amd64_open64 also
1875        remove CPP setting (was identical to genmake2 default).
1876    o pkg/gmredi & model/src: Some updating and work done on the residual model.
1877      - created new file model/src/calc_eddy_stress.F to calculate the eddy stress.
1878      - fixed up the calculation of the eddy stress and how it is added to the
1879        external forcing via taueddy_external_forcing.F
1880      - at the moment, it is very experimental and only works with the variable eddy
1881        diffusivity calculated in gmredi_k3d.F
1882    o pkg/seaice/seaice_check.F: add a check to catch the case of specifying
1883        lw/swfluxfile instead of lw/swdownfile in data.exf together with pkg/seaice
1884    o testreport (& tools/do_tst_2+2):
1885      - for MPI test, set default COMMAND to 'mpirun -v -np TR_NPROC ./{executable}'
1886    o tools/build_options: linux_amd64_gfortran & linux_amd64_ifort11:
1887      - remove CPP='cpp -traditional -P' (this is genmake2 default)
1888      - add switch (for big setups) to use 'medium' memory-model (but leave it
1889        commented out for now). Note: needed with FC 19 to compile big setups.
1890    o pkg/atm_compon_interf:
1891      - regroup per field origin (model & pkgs) the coupling storage routines
1892         (which accumalate in time each coupling field)
1893      - move bi,bj loops inside atm_store_my_data.F and store also wind-stress;
1894        update accordingly + simplify aim_do_physics.F
1895    
1896    checkpoint64n (2013/08/26)
1897    o pkg/bbl:
1898      - update formulation to reduce dispersion of tracer properties in bbl
1899      - replaced horizontal and vertical transport parameters with velocities
1900      - changes results for verification/global_with_exf.yearly
1901    o verification/halfpipe_streamice:
1902      - change to matrix construction; update both Fwd & AD output.
1903    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens:
1904      - OpenAD test: switch to vector-invariant momentum since fluxform with
1905        rStar causes problems with OpenAD; update output.
1906    o tools:
1907      - genmake2: define a common prefix for all temp-file names ; move them
1908        to local /tmp disk (but would be easy to move them back);
1909      - xmakedepend: apply the same switch for temp-files.
1910    o pkg/offline:
1911      - changes for use with rStar (NLFS): assume that we continue to provide
1912        UVELMASS/hFacW_ini & VVELMASS/hFacS_ini (hFacWi,S_ini as written in grid
1913        output files) and apply r* scaling at each time-step (function of the time
1914        varying Eta field); use normal pickup files (needed for restart with NLFS).
1915    o adjoint with OpenAD:
1916      - move OpenAD-specific files from verification/OpenAD/code_oad_all to a new
1917        package openad.  This package has to be compiled for all runs with OpenAD
1918        instead of specifying code_oad_all as a modification directory.
1919      - link the fortran templates from tools/OAD_support to the build directory
1920        for preprocessing to avoid conflicts between different setups compiled
1921        simultaneously and simplify cleanup.
1922    o pkg/exf:
1923      - in exf_getforcing.F: comment out most of the EXCH calls (fields used by
1924        main model or other pkgs are exchanged in EXF_MAPFIELDS).
1925    o model/src:
1926      - do_stagger_fields_exchanges.F: skip EXCH calls when using pkg/offline
1927        (similar to do_fields_blocking_exchanges.F).
1928    o tools/genmake2:
1929      - remove TAF output src code just before calling staf (when not doing a fresh
1930        built, will stop if things go wrong with staf).
1931      - fix target "adobj" (left from TAF version-2 transition)
1932    o pkg/diagnostics:
1933      - add a parameter to track the status of pkg/diagnostics activation;
1934        this replace/extend the use of logical param "settingDiags" (to check
1935        when adding diag to the list) to also check any DIAGNOSTICS_[]FILL* call.
1936        New S/R to print error message and stop when pkgStatus is not right.
1937      - to try: add a warning when "data.diagnostics" exist but useDiagnostics=F.
1938    
1939    checkpoint64m (2013/08/13)
1940    o model/inc:
1941      - move FCORI_MACROS.h from PARAMS(_MACROS).h to GRID_MACROS.h (left from
1942        8 yrs ago modif when Coriolis arrays were moved from PARAMS.h to GRID.h)
1943    o pkg/kpp & aim_v23:
1944      - only call DIAGNOSTICS_FILL when useDiagnostics=TRUE.
1945    o pkg/seaice:
1946      - restore (last time on 2011/12/24) ability to compile pkg/seaice with
1947        undefined pkg/exf ALLOW_ATM_TEMP or ALLOW_RUNOFF CPP-options.
1948      - only call DIAGNOSTICS_FILL when useDiagnostics=TRUE.
1949    o eesupp/src:
1950      - fix check for overlap-size argument (myOLn.GT.MAX_OLY_EXCH)
1951        in exch1_rx[_ad].template (thanks to Francois Lefeuvre report).
1952    o switch to TAF version-2:
1953      - add flow directives to "freeze" naming convention for ad-routines that
1954        are used in I/O routines of adjoint state and associated common blocks
1955        that are used in adcommon.h (backward compatible with version-1)
1956      - update all ad-optfiles (in tools/adjoint_options + few local to some
1957        verification exp) to switch to latest TAF version (currently 2.5.5);
1958        merge "*_mpi" adoptfiles into the corresponding non-mpi (but commented
1959        out except for diva).
1960      - the major change with TAF version-2 is that both the differentiated
1961        routines and the forward routines (new) are returned as part of the TAF
1962        output source code. Update genmake2 accordingly.
1963      - new output for AD experiment tutorial_global_oce_biogeo (better AD gradient
1964        with version-2 when compared to TLM or FWD gradient); other experiments
1965        output show minor changes (machine truncation level); update the few AD &
1966        TLM output with 12 matching digits only (some prior to version-2 switch).
1967    
1968    checkpoint64l (2013/08/05)
1969    o model/src:
1970      - in dynamics.F, skip the call to CALC_VISCOSITY if momViscosity=F
1971      - main_do_loop.F: no longer includes additional (AUTODIFF) header files
1972        when using TAF but only if using OpenAD.
1973    o pkg/mom_common+fluxform+vecinv:
1974      - always set horiz. viscosity arrays to background value before calling
1975        MOM_CALC_VISC (in MOM_FLUXFORM & MOM_VECINV) and call S/R MOM_CALC_VISC
1976        only when using variable horiz. viscosity (useVariableVisc=T);
1977      - simplify mom_vecinv.F (only 1 block for momViscosity).
1978    o pkg/mom_common: variable horiz. viscosity in NH code
1979      - move horiz-viscosity 3-D arrays viscAh_W & viscA4_W (used in calc_gw.F)
1980        from model/inc/NH_VARS.h to pkg/mom_common/MOM_VISC.h
1981      - store in common block (in MOM_VISC.h) logical parameters: useHarmonicVisc,
1982        useBiharmonicVisc & useVariableVisc.
1983      - fix old bug (already in 1rst implementation of variable horizontal viscosity
1984        in calc_gw.F, version 1.27, 2006/06/20):
1985        horizontal bi-harmonic viscosity in gW was missing when wiscA4W=0
1986        even if variable bi-harmonic viscosity (e.g., viscA4Grid) was non-zero.
1987      - change background horiz viscosity in vertical momentum (gW) to always be
1988        viscAhW,viscA4W (instead of switching to viscAhD, viscA4D when using
1989        any type of variable viscosity, e.g., viscAh/4Grid)
1990      - change default value of viscAhW,viscA4W to viscAhD,viscA4D (instead of
1991        viscAh,viscA4) which default to viscAh,viscA4 :  this avoid missing
1992        horiz. viscosity in W eq when just setting viscAhD/Z,viscA4D/Z (since
1993        default viscAh,viscA4 is zero).
1994    o model/src:
1995      - extend length of drC & recip_drC from Nr to Nr+1.
1996    o Divided Adjoint (DIVA) with MPI:
1997      - genmake2: do not create local ./mpi_headers dir when no file to copy into.
1998      - remove option ALLOW_DIVIDED_ADJOINT_MPI (replaced by ALLOW_DIVIDED_ADJOINT
1999        and ALLOW_USE_MPI) from model/src code and from ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h.
2000    
2001    checkpoint64k (2013/07/23)
2002    o tools/OAD_support:
2003      - avoid the need for file "oadtempflile" in insertTemplateDir.bash
2004        and remove it from genmake2.
2005    o tools/build_options:
2006      - remove MPI_HEADER_FILES_INC setting (no longer used) and comment out
2007        MPI_HEADER_FILES list (let genmake2 find the missing headers)
2008    o verification/halfpipe_streamice:
2009      - change to driving stress formulation; update both Fwd & AD output.
2010    o tools/genmake2 and Divided Adjoint with MPI:
2011      - remove default setting of MPIINCLUDEDIR from $MPIHOME (always been broken);
2012      - only create local ./mpi_headers dir if using MPI and MPIINCLUDEDIR is set;
2013      - add new variable (LOCAL_MPI_HEADERS, replace MPI_HEADER_FILES_INC) in
2014        Makefile, which is set by genmake2, and check which mpi-headers are needed.
2015        Note: need to update adjoint_options/adjoint_diva_mpi accordingly.
2016      - update target "CLEAN" (to also remove ./mpi_headers/ dir).
2017    o testreport:
2018      - changes for Divided Adjoint Run: when file "run_ADM_DIVA" is present,
2019        perform additional runs (number of additional runs is "add_DIVA_runs" taken
2020        from file run_ADM_DIVA ; should match "nchklev_3" in file "code_ad/tamc.h").
2021    o verification/lab_sea (AD test):
2022      - change to test Divided Adjoint Run in this set-up (both standard AD test
2023        and 2 secondary AD test: noseaice + noseaicedyn); drop the evp AD test.
2024    o pkg atm_ & ocn_compon_interf:
2025      - remove cpl_earlyExpImpCall=F option (was mainly a hack added for the old
2026        staggerTimeStep implementation) and disable (retired) corresponding
2027        parameter.
2028    o pkg/offline:
2029      - comment out unused field-array: ICEM, ConvectCount, hflx[01], icem[01];
2030      - add S/R OFFLINE_CHECK to print offline parameter summary
2031        and stop if loading a file that is not used;
2032      - enable to calculate GMRedi tensor, KPP mixing and convective index
2033        when the corresponding file(s) is/are not specified (but pkg is used).
2034      - comment out resetting of monitorFreq (to endTime) since it still useful
2035        for monitoring CFL numbers and checking offline fields.
2036    o OpenAD:
2037      - do not define OAD_DEBUG (in tools/adjoint_options/adjoint_oad) to get
2038        smaller standard output) and generate new (smaller) output (on baudelaire
2039        using gfortran with -ieee) for exp. tutorial_tracer_adjsens
2040    o model/src:
2041      - call EXTERNAL_FORCING_SURF outside bi,bj loops (in do_oceanic_phys.F),
2042        (where external_forcing_adjust was called) and change list of arguments;
2043      - merge external_forcing_adjust.F into external_forcing_surf.F
2044      - put surface relaxation of SST & SSS in new S/R (forcing_surf_relax.F)
2045        which also contains balancing surface relaxation (ALLOW_BALANCE_RELAX,
2046        previously in file "balance_relax.F", now removed); remove corresponding
2047        arrays in FFIELDS.h.
2048      - EXTERNAL_FORCING_SURF is now called when using pkg/offline; implement
2049        a hack for getting back surfaceForcingS (loaded from file) when using
2050        ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX (pkg/dic, in DIC_OPTIONS.h) in offline set-up.
2051      - update output of AD test experiment global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice_dynmix
2052        (was getting only 11 digits for AD-grad, due to different truncation
2053         error in AD code).
2054    
2055    checkpoint64j (2013/07/04)
2056    o pkg/offline:
2057      - to enable the use of other features with pkg offline (e.g., obcs),
2058        also call S/R DO_OCEANIC_PHYS in offline run - more modifs to come.
2059      - comment out "allowFreezing" (now active) in 2 offline testing exp.
2060    o pkg/exf ALLOW_RUNOFTEMP
2061      - fix sign and make compatible with temp_EvPrRn .NE. UNSET_RL
2062      - ahdded RUNOFTEMP test to verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.seaice
2063      - changes verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/results/output.seaice.txt
2064    o pkg/atm_phys:
2065      - allows to add some damping on uVel,vVel (strength only function of k).
2066    o verification, ad-tests:
2067      - reduce length of the simulation for AD test: global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice,
2068        global_ocean_ebm and offline_exf_seaice.thsice.
2069    o verification/halfpipe_streamice:
2070      - found a bug in s/r pkg/streamice/streamice_advect_thickness which caused
2071        flux input boundary conditions to be ignored; a fix for this bug changed
2072        verification results for forward test.
2073      - add adjoint test.
2074    o pkg/ptracers:
2075      - allow to restart without SOM pickup (resetting SOM to zero).
2076    o pkg/gmredi:
2077      - New parameterisation for the calculation of K and (GM_PsiX,GM_PsiY) added.
2078      - It uses mixing length theory and suppression by steering level effects to
2079        calculate a diffusivity used in the Redi tensor (see Bates et al., submitted
2080        to JPO, for more details).
2081      - It also uses the diffusivity to calculate an eddy induced streamfunction
2082        based on a PV closure (rather than a buoyancy closure as in GM).
2083      - New files added to pkg/gmredi:
2084        gmredi_k3d.F calculates the diffusivity for the Redi tensor and the eddy
2085          induced overturning streamfunction (called from gmredi_calc_tensor)
2086        gmredi_calc_eigs.F calculates the eigenvalues and eigenvectors required
2087          for use in gmredi_k3d
2088        gmredi_calc_urms.F calculates the the rms eddy velocity used to calculate
2089          the eddy diffusivity
2090    
2091    checkpoint64i (2013/06/18)
2092    o pkg/cheapaml:
2093      - take src files from MITgcm_contrib/verification_other/offline_cheapaml/code
2094        that enable the use of seaice (pkg/thsice thermo & pkg/seaice dynamics)
2095        with pkg/cheapaml.
2096    o utils/python: add subpackage for cubed sphere function, first example is
2097        simple cs.pcol to plot 2D fields on a map
2098    o pkg/streamice:
2099      - This is a new package in MITgcm, which solves dynamic equations for ice
2100         sheets and ice streams
2101      - At the moment it is independent of atmosphere/ocean dynamics, or any
2102        other physical packages in MITgcm, even ShelfIce (although it is anticipat-
2103        ed that this will change)
2104      - There is a new verification exercise that tests it, halfpipe_streamice,
2105        evolves a 40x80 km ice stream/ice shelf (at coarse resolution) in a
2106        rectangular embayment
2107      - halfpipe_streamice is forward-only for now, will have TAF test soon
2108      - for questions, email dgoldber@mit.edu
2109    o pkg/thsice:
2110      - fix filling of snow-precip diagnostic (SIsnwPrc) (left from the removing
2111        of snowPrc from common bloc, on May 2nd, thsice_step_fwd.F revision 1.40);
2112      - remove diagnostics 'SI_FrcFx' ( now identical to 'SI_Fract' with new
2113         call sequence: ice-Thermo(thsice),ice-Dyn,ice-Advect );
2114      - allow precip from pkg/cheapaml to make snow over seaice.
2115    o pkg/cfc:
2116      - move in separated header file (CFC_ATMOS.h) time-serie arrays of Atmos CFC
2117      - remove atmos CFC 2-D arrays from common bloc (now local variables)
2118      - change some hard-coded constant to run time parameter for reading and
2119        and interpolating atmospheric CFC ; keep same default as previously.
2120      - more flexible reading of Atmos CFC (number of records no longer hard-coded)
2121      - put arguments in standard order: myTime, myIter, myThid
2122      - use standard S/R GET_PERIODIC_INTERVAL for time interpolation of
2123        atmospheric CFC ; fix for the case myIter < PTRACERS_iter0.
2124      - fix calculation of surf tendencys for partial-cell and/or Non-Lin Free-Surf
2125      - new routine to print summary of CFC params and check for consistency.
2126    o pkg/seaice: add uice/vice to the parameter list of s/r seaice_advdiff,
2127      similar to thsice_advdiff.
2128      Note that for the B-grid case the routine parameters uc/vc are overwritten.
2129    o pkg/cfc:
2130      - change time interpolation for atmospheric CFC-11 (now same as for CFC-12);
2131        update output (CFC-11) of experiment cfc_example and tutorial_cfc_offline.
2132      - fix interpolation of atmphspheric CFC between Sorthern and Northern
2133        hemisphere value.
2134    o pkg/seaice:
2135      - allow to use seaice dynamics without pkg/exf (e.g., using pkg/cheapaml)
2136    o pkg/seaice: add Adams-Bashforth2 time discretization for ice dynamics;
2137                  so far only for JFNK-solver, turn on with SEAICEuseAB2 = .TRUE.
2138      - requires an additional time level that is stored in the pickup
2139      - you can start with AB2 from a pickup without this time level with
2140        pickupStrictlyMatch = .false.
2141    
2142    checkpoint64h (2013/05/26)
2143    o pkg/cheapaml:
2144      - replace one ()**.5 with SQRT + use temp var "cdu = tau/Du" (coare3_flux);
2145        affect machine truncation (but exp cheapAML_box still pass with 13 digits).
2146      - consistent treatment of uWind,vWind location: assume everywhere in
2147        pkg/cheapaml that they are on C-grid (@ uVel,vVel location)
2148        (Note: was already the case for Tair,Qair advection);
2149        add option (INCONSISTENT_WIND_LOCATION) to recover old results.
2150      - compute diabatic forcing only in the interior (excluding overlap regions)
2151      - fill in array "Qsw" (for short-wave heating);
2152      - add diagnostic for precip ; fill-in diagnostics for cheapAML state vars
2153        before any update (consistent with MITgcm state var diagnostics);
2154      - cheapaml_fields_load.F & cheapaml_init_varia.F : only fill outer edges if
2155        non periodic ; + adjusted for uWind,vWind (C-grid).
2156    o pkg/seaice:
2157      - remove dependence of pkg/seaice versus pkg/exf (file: pkg/pkg_depend) and
2158        add explicitly pkg/exf in experiments that currently use pkg/seaice.
2159      - allows to compile pkg/seaice without pkg/exf.
2160    o tools/OAD_support:
2161      - use a local copy (ourRWCPinBd) to ensure index ourRWCP stays within bounds
2162        of array "ourStepOf" in function rvNextAction (revolve.F90).
2163    o pkg/aim_compon_interf renamed to pkg/atm_compon_interf
2164      - change pkg name (to be used with other atmospheric physics pkg)
2165        but by-pass CVS when making the new pkg so that we keep the CVS history.
2166    o pkg/offline:
2167      - call OFFLINE_FIELDS_LOAD from pkg/offline/offline_init_varia.F
2168        (previously called from pkg/dic_surfforcing_init.F)
2169    o model/src:
2170      - re-order sequence of calls within packages_init_variables.F, using
2171        standard order, except for:
2172         DIAGNOSTICS_INIT_VARIA and OFFLINE_INIT_VARIA (called @ the top),
2173         CTRL_MAP_INI and OBCS_INIT_VARIABLES (called @ the bottom)
2174    o new pkg: atm_phys
2175      - add entry point and source code (previously in contrib
2176          verification_other/atm_gray/code_gray/) for new pkg "atm_phys"
2177        (atmospheric physics pkg from P. O'Gorman and T. Schneider, JCl, 2008).
2178      - re-order sequence of calls within packages_readparms.F,
2179         packages_init_fixed.F and packages_write_pickup.F
2180        (but skip packages_init_variables.F because of TAF issues).
2181      - update contrib/*/atm_gray/ experiment.
2182    o pkg/seaice (ITD code):
2183      - simplify and fix the writing of pickup-files for ITD case
2184    o pkg/seaice (ITD code):
2185      - introduce floe size dependent lateral melt for ITD case;
2186      - cleaning (avoid division by zero, change to f77 syntax, remove tabs)
2187      - update seaice_itd experiment main output.
2188    o pkg/thsice:
2189      - remove snowPrc from common block THSICE_FLUX, in THSICE_VARS.h and
2190        declared it locally (without bi,bj) in thsice_main.F & aim_do_physics.F;
2191        changed accordingly pkg/atm2d.
2192    
2193    checkpoint64g (2013/05/01)
2194    o pkg/exf ALLOW_RUNOFTEMP
2195      - if defined,  river and glacier runoff temperature can be read-in from
2196        runoftempfile; runoftempfile needs to have same format as runofffile
2197    o pkg/thsice (& pkg/bulk_force):
2198      - In case Energy-Reference-Level (ERL) is used (temp_EvPrRn=0), account
2199        for energy content of Precip + RunOff & Evap (like with pkg/exf).
2200      - change computation domain to always be the interior (without overlap).
2201      - fix bug (wrong overlap) when using EXF and stressReduction > 0.
2202    o verification/tutorial_global_oce_biogeo:
2203      - add preliminary OpenAD setup (still has problems)
2204    o pkg/seaice:
2205      - turn some parameters for choosing the convergence criterion of
2206        the inexact Newton method (JFNK) into runtime parameters for convenience
2207      - clean up seaice_calc_viscosities.F: remove/retire two options for
2208        SEAICetaZmethod (1,2), introduce area weighting for method 3; this changes
2209        the results of lab_sea/input because a division has been replaced by
2210        a multiplication with the reciprocal (sumNorm)
2211      - modify offline_exf_seaice/input.dyn_jfnk/data.seaice to improve
2212        convergence of solver (changes results, of course), and to test some
2213        new features
2214    o model/src:
2215      - remove unused (since Aug 2006) S/R SET_WRITE_GLOBAL_PICKUP and its call.
2216      - remove unused forcing field "dQdT" and associated parameter "dQdTFile".
2217      - move forcing adjustment (balancing surface forcing) in specific S/R
2218        where might also be applied exchanges (if needed) to forcing arrays.
2219    o pkg/shelfice:
2220      - allow to specify the Ice-Shelf mass per unit area (instead of
2221        shelficeLoadAnomaly) and do the conversion from one to the other
2222      - move loading from file of shelficeLoadAnomaly from SHELFICE_INIT_VARIA
2223        to SHELFICE_INIT_FIXED: (a) avoid some TAF recompution issues and
2224        (b) will be loaded in time (before calling INI_PRESSURE) in case it is
2225        needed in phi0surf for initial pressure calculation when useDynP_inEos_Zc
2226      - update isomip experiment forward output (get machine truncation error
2227        from conversion shelficeLoadAnomaly -> shelficeMass -> shelficeLoadAnomaly)
2228    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
2229      revise data.seaice in input.thermo and input_ad and update results accordingly
2230        HO = 0.2, SEAICE_areaLossFormula = 2,
2231        SEAICE_growMeltByConv = .TRUE.,
2232        SEAICE_doOpenWaterMelt = .TRUE.,
2233      Improve consistency with input.thsice and fix the spurious 500m ice corners
2234    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15:
2235      - set Energy Reference Level to liq. water @ 0 degC: temp_EvPrRn=0.,
2236        in icedyn (thsice+seaice-dyn) test and update output.
2237    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
2238      - adjust list of tested variables (with testreport) and update
2239        standard test output with better slection of monitored fields.
2240    o pkg/cd_code:
2241      - swtich off Adams-Bashforth on the 1rst iteration. Update output of
2242        experiment lab_sea.hb87
2243    o tools/genmake2:
2244      - change default makedepend from the system default to tools/xmakedepend:
2245        When no makedepend is specified, select tools/xmakedepend it the test pass,
2246        otherwise select the system default (if exist and pass the test) or
2247        try to build cyrus-makedepend ; stop if none of the 3 works.
2248    o pkg/exf & pkg/thsice:
2249      - In case Energy-Reference-Level (ERL) is used (temp_EvPrRn=0), account
2250        for energy content of Precip + RunOff & Evap. Assumes:
2251       1) Rain has same temp as Air.
2252       2) Snow has no heat capacity (consistent with seaice & thsice pkgs)
2253       3) Run-Off comes at the temp of surface water (with same Cp)
2254       4) Evap over ocean is released to the Atmos @ surf-temp (=SST); should be
2255        put directly into Latent Heat flux & should use water-vapor heat capacity.
2256       5) Evap over snow/seaice (pkg/thsice) assumes constant Lf+Lv (consistent
2257        with snow having no Cp) => water vapor is released to Atmos @ 0^oC (=ERL).
2258    o pkg/seaice: simplify the use of CPP flags in JFNK-related files
2259        (compile when SEAICE_ALLOW_JFNK is defined)
2260    o pkg/thsice:
2261      - fix oceanic flux diagnostics & timeave (left from new sequence of calls
2262        implementation): move THSICE_AVE call after the advection (called directly
2263        from thsice_do_advect.F).
2264    o verification/global_ocean.90x40x15 and OpenAD:
2265      New experiment for OpenAD is identical to the one in input_ad except that
2266        multiDimAdvection=.FALSE.,
2267      There is still an issue with this.
2268    o pkg/thsice:
2269      - account for ice velocity (ocean relative velocity) in turbulent heat flux
2270        at the base of the ice; update output of global_ocean.cs32x15 (icedyn)
2271        and offline_exf_seaice (main test).
2272    
2273    checkpoint64f (2013/03/31)
2274    o verification/OpenAD:
2275      - new (smaller, without OAD_DEBUG) output_oadm.txt generated using gfortran.
2276    o verification/isomip, pkg/shelfice and OpenAD:
2277      - add OpenAD setup to this exp and make shelfice package work with OpenAD
2278    o verification/tutorial_global_oce_biogeo:
2279      - update AD and TLM output after turning off ALLOW_FE (in DIC_OPTIONS.h)
2280    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
2281      - replace adjoint experiment (now similar to fwd input.thermo/ setup).
2282    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens, pkg/ptracers and OpenAD:
2283      - add OpenAD setup to this exp and make ptracers package work with OpenAD
2284    o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp.F:
2285       mask the asymmetric contribution of the ice-ocean stress (when
2286       the turningAngle is non-zero) over open water to avoid stripes
2287       in the EVP-solutions after many EVP-substeps. This does not change
2288       the verification experiment (because turningAngle=0 in that experiment),
2289       but will affect other EVP solutions with turningAngle.ne.0
2290    o verification, AD & TLM output:
2291      - new TAF version 2.3.10 (previously 2.3.8) add more parenthesis in multiple
2292        additions and multiplications which affect results at machine truncation
2293        level. Update few AD output (1D_ocean_ice_column, bottom_ctrl_5x5,
2294        lab_sea.noseaicedyn & offline_exf_seaice) and TLM output
2295        (1D_ocean_ice_column & tutorial_tracer_adjsens.som81) which had only 12
2296        digits of matching.
2297    o pkg/seaice:
2298       modify lsr-algorithm so that it vectorizes AND converges by using a
2299       "zebra" method: split vector loop into two with step size 2; this
2300       solves a general convergence problem for the JFNK solver on a vector
2301       computer. It has the potential to even improve convergence for
2302       non-vector machines, but it does change the results so it is turned
2303       off by default. To turn on define CPP-flags SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR and
2304       SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h
2305    
2306    checkpoint64e (2013/03/05)
2307    o pkg/ecco and several verification experiments:
2308       Remove special versions of the_model_main.F, the_main_loop.F, forward_step.F
2309       from ecco package, and revert to unified routine in model/src/
2310       Adjust verification experiments accordingly, especially gloal_oce_llc90
2311       Should conclude long-standing work by Gael to reconsile the_main_loop with
2312       ECCO and will enable OpenAD's revolve loop in ECCO setup.
2313    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
2314      - implement compressible flow method for multi-dim advection (similar to
2315        gad_som_advect.F); add new option "GAD_MULTIDIM_COMPRESSIBLE" (since
2316        TAF generates many recomputations) to use it; no yet coded with implicit
2317        vertical advection.
2318      - change experiment advect_cs (new output) and advect_xy (same output)
2319        to test compressible flow multi-dim advection.
2320    o pkg/generic_advdiff:
2321      - fix SOM advection for unusual cases (linear Free-Surf in r*, other
2322        cases where linear Free-Surf is not @ k=1, e.g., useShelfIce)
2323    o pkg/seaice:
2324      - fix bug in the no-slip implementation in seaice_calc_strainrates.F, this
2325        bug affects two verification experiments (lab_sea and lab_sea.hb87),
2326        recover old (wrong) results by setting noSlipFac = 2. in
2327        seaice_calc_strainrates.F;
2328      - add another averaging method for etaZ (etaZmethod=3), a mix of 2 and 0
2329      - add runtime parameter SEAICE_JFNKepsilon for that finite difference
2330        gradient in the Jacobian times vector operation (s/r seaice_jacvec)
2331      - fix line search in seaice_jfnk.F (s/r seaice_jfnk_update)
2332    o pkg/seaice: reorganize seaice_lsr.F to be able to reuse more code:
2333      - new subroutines seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v
2334      - introduce loop bounds i/jmin/max to be able to use a restricted
2335        additive Schwarz method, but not used for now.
2336      - rename SEAICE_CALC_LSR_COEFFS into SEAICE_LSR_CALC_COEFFS
2337      - use new subroutines seaice_lsr_tridiagu/v in s/r seaice_preconditioner
2338    o OpenAD support
2339       Reorganize S/R call for overall time-stepping loop to facilitate
2340       OpenAD revolve loop replacement
2341       (new S/R main_do_loop.F)
2342    o model/src:
2343      - add 3-D array 3rd dimension to argument list of S/R ADAMS_BASHFORTH2/3;
2344      - pkg/cheapaml: remove local S/R ADAMS2d and use instead standard S/R
2345        ADAMS_BASHFORTH2.
2346    o pkg/cheapaml:
2347      - add new parameter (default=F, same as before) to disable full domain
2348        (including land) periodicity in X & Y dir.
2349      - new S/R CHEAPAML_COPY_EDGES to copy relaxation field into edges of
2350        prognostics field ; merge the 2 S/R cycle_2d_tracer and timestep_2d_tracer
2351        into single S/R CHEAPAML_TIMESTEP.
2352    
2353    checkpoint64d (2013/02/17)
2354    o pkg/monitor (angular momentum):
2355      - do not add Eta contribution to the total AM if using rigid-lid;
2356      - correct for Adams-Bashforth in zonal-wind part (instead of in AM_eta).
2357      - horizontal discretisation: compute Zonal wind contribution separately for
2358        each component (instead of from cell centered averaged) and use the 4
2359        grid-cell corner averaged value of Omega*(R*cos_Phi)^2 in AM_eta part.
2360      - Check that AM is conserved with linear dynamics (momAdvection=F and linear
2361        FreeSurf) if using vectorInvariant momentum.
2362    o model/src (horizontal grid):
2363      - move initialisation of all horizontal grid arrays to null value
2364        from specific horizontal grid S/R to main S/R INI_GRID;
2365      - add 2 new arrays to project model C-grid velocity on to zonal direction
2366        (similar to AngleCosC & -AngleSinC but at U and V point location) and
2367        compute them in S/R CALC_GRID_ANGLES.
2368    o pkg/seaice: replace a hard coded parameter by a runtime parameter
2369        SEAICE_JFNK_tolIter
2370    o pkg/seaice: introduce a restricted additive Schwarz (RAS) method in
2371        preconditioner for JFNK (run LSR into the overlaps as far as possible,
2372        i.e OLx/y-2, but overwrite the solution in the overlaps)
2373      - extend loop range in seaice_calc_viscosity
2374      - add new parameters SEAICE_OLx/y (default = OLx/y-2)
2375      - add flexible loop ranges to seaice_preconditioner, seaice_calc_lsr_coeffs
2376      - slightly modify loops in tridiagonal solver lsr-preconditioner
2377      - by default remove the extra exchange in seaice_preconditioner with a
2378        replacement of an undocumented CPP flag by SEAICE_PRECOND_EXTRA_EXCHANGE
2379      - modify offline_exf_seaice so that old results without RAS are reproduced
2380        for output.dyn_jfnk.txt
2381      in seaice_fgmres.F (unrelated to RAS)
2382      - add a cpp-flag option for a re-ordered mapping (potentially more
2383        efficient), but because this changes the results, turn it off by
2384        default
2385      - replace the save statement by local common blocks
2386    o utils/matlab:
2387      - fix tile-offset in rdmnc.m when output was produced using EXCH2.
2388      - update cs_grid/bk_line scripts to use load_grid.m (in utils/matlab)
2389        instead of local script "load_cs.m".
2390    o pkg/seaice:
2391      - fix a serious bug in seaice_fgmres.F, s/r seaice_scalprod, connected
2392        to the scalarProductMetric and the unrolling. By chance this does not
2393        change the verification experiment, because of the particular domain
2394        decomposition
2395    o pkg/diagnostics:
2396      - change default missing_value from UNSET_RL to -999.
2397    o pkg/layers: improve vectorization of layers_fluxcalc.F
2398      - step 1: split loops, make TatU/V 2D arrays. This alone reduces the cpu
2399        time spent in this routine by more than a factor of 3 on an NEC-SX8
2400      - step 2: replace search algorithm by a bisection algorithm found in
2401        Press et al. Numerical Recipes in Fortran. This algorithm can be
2402        vectorized and finds the correct bin in approx. log2(Nlayers) steps.
2403        For now, use this algorithm only for TARGET_NEC_SX defined.
2404      - moved the search algorithm into a separate subroutine, that is kept
2405        within the same file for automatic inlining.
2406      - modified catching potential errors
2407    o pkg/ecco:
2408      - add compile switches ALLOW_SHALLOW_ALTIMETRY and ALLOW_HIGHLAT_ALTIMETRY.
2409    o model/src, pkg/autodiff, pkg/ctrl, pkg/grdchk :
2410      - modifications for ALLOW_GENTIM2D_CONTROL
2411      -- forward_step.F, the_main_loop.F : pass options and arrays for adjoint tapes.
2412      -- load_fields_driver.F : add call to CTRL_MAP_GENTIM2D( myTime, myIter, myThid )
2413      -- add xx_gentim2d0/1 in ctrl_ad_check_lev1_dir.h checkpoint_lev1_directives.h etc
2414      -- use ctrl_swapffields.F (new) instead of exf_SwapFFields.F in ctrl_get_gen.F
2415    o model/src:
2416      - account for moist thermodynamics in (dry) potential temperature equation;
2417        update results of experiments: aim.5l_cs (x2), fizhi-cs (std + aqualev)
2418        and cpl_aim+ocn.
2419      - also switch to standard compiler (gfortran, was using ifort previously)
2420        for fizhi-cs experiments reference output.
2421    o pkg/ctrl:
2422      - 1st step toward generic time-varying control variable (2D) via CPP option
2423        ALLOW_GENTIM2D_CONTROL
2424      - note new namelist ctrl_nml_genarr in data.ctrl
2425    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15:
2426      - switch off OLD_THSICE_CALL_SEQUENCE (both forward and AD code) to use new
2427        thsice calling sequence and update "output.icedyn.txt" output file.
2428    o pkg/ptracers:
2429      - from Ryan A.: code to allow to restart a tracer at regular time interval
2430        specifying a reset frequency and a reset-phase (for each tracers).
2431    o pkg/thsice:
2432      - implement new sequence of calls for thsice+seaice:
2433          previously:   ice-Dyn,ice-Advect,ice-Thermo(thsice)
2434          new sequence: ice-Thermo(thsice),ice-Dyn,ice-Advect
2435      - allows (with temporary CPP option "#define OLD_THSICE_CALL_SEQUENCE"
2436        in CPP_OPTIONS.h) to recover old sequence;
2437      - update diagnostics for Intermediate State thsice diagnostics: now filled
2438        just before advection (instead of just after advection in old sequence);
2439      - update output of experiment offline_exf_seaice (standard test);
2440      - in global_ocean.cs32x15 exp., postpone output.icedyn.txt update
2441        by setting #define OLD_THSICE_CALL_SEQUENCE in CPP_OPTIONS.h
2442    o pkg/aim_v23:
2443      - use tiled array for aim_CO2 and surface wind speed for export to coupler;
2444      - use standard pkg/mdsio routines to read & write CO2 pickup file;
2445      - in-line S/R AIM_AIM2DYN_EXCHANGES in aim_do_physics.F;
2446      - Implement new sequence of calls for seaice advection (with thsice and
2447        seaice diffusion): do ice advection after ice-Thermodynamic (previously
2448        was done before); change aim_do_physics.F (split the bi,bj loops block);
2449      - use same CPP option (OLD_THSICE_CALL_SEQUENCE) to recover old sequence;
2450    o pkg/thsice:
2451      - add a missing EXCH of sIceLoad in thsice_main.F (ocean set-up) for the case
2452        where just seaice diffusion is used without seaice-dynamics.
2453    
2454    checkpoint64c (2013/01/18)
2455    o pkg/seaice:
2456      - add a parameter JFNKres_tFac that can replace JFNKres_t
2457        (= JFNKres_tFac*JFNKresidual before JFNK solver)
2458      - add a line search option to the JFNK solver
2459      - move update of u/vIce and computation of initial residual into a separate
2460        routine (same file); makes the code a little easier to read (?)
2461      - the line search requires computation of the residual and for some reason
2462        I cannot do the update of u/vIce at the beginning of the Newton loop
2463        without changing the results, so we move computation of the new residual
2464        also to the end of the Newton loop, even without the line search
2465    o pkg/mdsio:
2466      - write missing value (corresponding to undefined array value) to meta files;
2467        skip this if missing value is one (UNSET_RL would be a better value for the
2468        case of undefined missing value but it's current the default missing-value);
2469        Also update mdsio_read_meta.F (reading timeInterval & missing-value).
2470    o pkg/exf & thsice:
2471      - for diagnostics purpose, fill-up and update Qsw array (+ fill the
2472        diagnostics) even when SHORTWAVE_HEATING is #undef;
2473    o verification/cfc_example:
2474      - turn on pkg/layers with pkg/diagnostics (to test pkg/layers and to
2475        illustrate how to use it).
2476    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
2477      in input: add SEAICErestoreUnderIce=.TRUE., and reduce size of forcing
2478        files to only one time-record.
2479      in input.thermo: narrow the 2 bands of low initial ice-concentration near
2480        N & S edges; switch on SEAICErestoreUnderIce=T; use pkg/diagnostics for
2481        snapshot output; same mcPheePiston value as in thsice with
2482        surf-current=0.2m/s.
2483      in input.thsice: similar set-up as in input.thermo (channel with same seaice
2484        initial conditions).
2485    o verification/cfc_example:
2486      - update file "data" with more standard choice (default rotationPeriod,
2487        exactConserv=T, reduce ivdc_kappa to 10, remove multiDimAdvection=F,
2488        set deltaTFreeSurf to deltaTtracer) and update the output.
2489    o pkg/layers:
2490      - fix bolus part so that it compiles with #undef GM_BOLUS_ADVEC;
2491      - ensure that "layers_bolus" is switched to False when useGMRedi=False.
2492    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
2493      - set all {field}period to zero for constant-in-time forcing (not tested
2494        anywhere else).
2495    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
2496      - dyn_lsr  : use pkg/seaice S/R (instead of pkg/thsice) to advect sea-ice;
2497      - dyn_jfnk : use pkg/thsice S/R (instead of pkg/seaice) to advect sea-ice.
2498    o model/src:
2499      - implement Finite-Volume method for (hydrostatic) presure gradient
2500        from S.-J. Lin (QJRMS 1997), for atmosphere using sigma-coordinate.
2501    o pkg/seaice: implement EVP* by Lemieux et al. (2012).
2502      - In order to be compatible with the default EVP code, this requires changing
2503        the EVP code around a little; and because any small change immediately
2504        breaks the lab_sea.hb87 verification experiment, the reference output is
2505        updated two times (each time the remaining aggrement was only 2 digits):
2506        - after replacing 1/dt by 1*recip_dt with a precomputed recip_dt
2507        - after replacing 1/(1+0.5*dt/tau) by a/(a+1), with a=2*tau/dt
2508        The adjoint test lab_sea.evp also needed to be updated.
2509      - Turn on EVP* by setting SEAICE_deltaTevp as before, and setting
2510        SEAICEuseEVPstar=.true.; for EVP* SEAICE_deltaTevp does not need to be
2511        a factor of SEAICE_deltaTdyn, and you can set the number of EVP steps
2512        explicitly with SEAICEnEVPstarSteps (thereby overriding the default of
2513        INT(SEAICE_deltaTdyn/SEAICE_deltaTevp)). Controlling EVP* is deliberately
2514        kept obscure, because I need to test it a little more.
2515    o pkg/cheapaml:
2516      - fix few incorrect type (_RL/_RS) in subroutine calls.
2517    o pkg/seaice:
2518      - new S/R SEAICE_MAP_RS2VEC (similar to SEAICE_MAP2VEC) to map _RS arrays
2519        to _RL vector; this fixes JFNK code when compiling with "-use_r4" option.
2520    o model/src:
2521      - add a warning if using select_rStar=2 with nonlinFreeSurf <> 4;
2522        change (in input_ad*/data) select_rStar from 2 to 1 for AD verification
2523        experiments global_ocean.cs32x15 & tutorial_tracer_adjsens (+ update output)
2524    o pkg/cheapaml:
2525      - replace "273.1 _d 0" by celsius2K in pkg/cheapaml/cheapaml.F and
2526        update output of experiment cheapAML_box.
2527      - store in CHEAPAML.h coeffs ssq[0:2] for saturation specific humidity,
2528        and set them only in one place (cheapaml_readparms.F).
2529      - replace "273.16 _d 0" by celsius2K & replace "3.14159 _d 0" by constant "PI"
2530      - remove re-setting of main-model parameter "celsius2K" (in cheapaml_readparms)
2531        and re-setting of cheapAML params "lath" & "p0" (in cheapaml_init_varia).
2532    o model/src/the_main_loop.F:
2533      - fix revision 129 : need both ALLOW_ECCO and ALLOW_ECCO_EVOLUTION.
2534    o pkg/seaice:
2535      - remove legacy branch code.
2536      - retire SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY and SEAICE_CAP_HEFF accordingly.
2537    o verification/*/code*/SEAICE_OPTIONS.h:
2538      - remove documentation for retired CPP flags (SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY,
2539        SEAICE_CAP_HEFF).
2540    o pkg/cheapaml:
2541      - use standard routine (S/R GET_PERIODIC_INTERVAL) to decide when it is time
2542        to load new forcing fields.
2543      - add missing "_d 0" where it's needed; + some editing (improve indentation).
2544      - remove switch to "-r8" compiler option (no longer needed) in verification
2545        cheapAML_box, keep same output (small trucation error differences).
2546    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
2547      - add thermodynamics only test.
2548    o verification/cheapAML_box:
2549      - split the domain in 8 (2x4) tiles; add MPI and multi-threaded test;
2550        keep same output (same 14 digits for cg2d).
2551      - switch on "-r8" compiler option (some numerical values are missing
2552        the "_d 0") and update output (only 6 digits for cg2d were preserved).
2553    
2554    checkpoint64b (2012/12/24)
2555    o pkg/cheapaml:
2556      - remove un-used variables (Qnet,EmPmR) from pickup files.
2557      - store tendency of advected variables into cheapaml pickup file
2558        and fix the AB-2 restart.
2559    o verification/offline_exf_seaice and lab_sea adjoint:
2560      - switch to new code (#undef SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY).
2561      - switch to 4 time steps in offline, consistent with lab_sea.
2562      - match parameters from SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY branch in data.seaice.
2563      - update results after change of experiment seaice.
2564    o pkg/seaice:
2565      - remove option SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY; has been replaced with run-time
2566        parameter SEAICE_multDim. Issue a warning if SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY is
2567        still defined since SEAICE_multDim needs to be set to MULTDIM value (from
2568        SEAICE_SIZE.h) to recover previous #define SEAICE_MULTICATEGORY default.
2569    o model/src:
2570      - add run-time parameter to select CG2D solver minimum-residual solution
2571        (in case of a poor convergence).
2572    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F
2573      - move calculation of matrix coefficients into new
2574        S/R SEAICE_CALC_LSR_COEFFS; for now this routine remains in the same
2575        file; the main purpose of this change is to be able to reuse the code
2576        in S/R SEAICE_PRECONDITIONER
2577      - modify the computation of the residual so that the mass of sea-ice
2578        is not used twice; this simplifies the calculations, but since
2579        the residual is never used except when LSR_mixIniGuess.ge.4---and this is
2580        not tested in testreport---this does not affect the testreport results.
2581    o verification/seaice_obcs:
2582      - disable SEAICE_GROWTH_LEGACY; reset input files to match those of
2583        verification/lab_sea/input.salt_plume; changes results/output.txt*
2584    o model/src:
2585      - adapt quasi-hydrostatic formulation to work with p or p* coordinate.
2586    o pkg/seaice:
2587      - improve description of parameters in seaice_fgmres.F and start
2588        cleaning up the code
2589      - change name of SCALPROD to SEAICE_SCALPROD and modify meaning of
2590        second argument
2591      - add a metric based on grid cell area to SEAICE_SCALPROD; update
2592        results of offline_exf_seaice.dyn_jfnk
2593      - compute initial residual norm in seaice_jfnk based on SEAICE_SCALPROD
2594    o pkg/aim_v23:
2595      - fix an other bug in dissipation heating (grid-cell area was missing).
2596    o model/src + pkg/seaice:
2597      - add global (multi-tile) linear solver for pair of tri-diagonal system
2598        along X and Y lines, respectively for U and V component.
2599        Note: 1) MPI and cube-exchange not yet coded.
2600            2) probably not accurate for poorly conditioned / large size problem.
2601      - add option for SEAICE_LSR to use global (multi-tile) tri-diagonal solver;
2602        default: not compiled and not used.
2603    o pkg/seaice:
2604      - first attempt at a multi-threaded fgmres solver for the JFNK solver:
2605        introduce bi/bj loops and use global_sum_tile_rl instead of
2606        mpi_allreduce in seaice_fgmres.F
2607      - improve diagnostics output for fgmres solver (seaice_fgmres.F)
2608      - replace a few unnecessary goto statements by if-blocks  (seaice_fgmres.F)
2609      - add a verification experiment for JFNK in offline_exf_seaice
2610    o verification:
2611      - change (for now, only fwd test) offline_exf_seaice experiment:
2612        use a re-entrant channel with idealized coastline (trapezoidal shape)
2613        at southern boundary to explore seaice dynamics and thermodynamics
2614        with simple forcing. Main set-up has dynamics+thermo and SST relaxation;
2615        secondary test (input.thsice) use thermodynamics only with SST relaxation.
2616      - add seaice-dynamics only secondary test using LSR and pkg/thsice advection.
2617    o pkg/exf:
2618      - disable "sstExtrapol" when Nr=1
2619    o verification:
2620      - add new experiment "cheapAML_box" (simple 1 layer set-up from Bruno Deremble)
2621        to test pkg/cheapaml.
2622    o pkg/aim_v23 & pkg/shap_filt:
2623      - fix dissipation heating (erroneous gravity multiplication factor).
2624    o pkg/seaice:
2625      - remove unused field pressPre from jfnk solver
2626      - rename two subroutines in seaice_preconditioner.F
2627    o eesupp/src:
2628       - S/R MDSFINDUNIT avoids reserved unit numbers (scrUnit1, eeDataUnit ...)
2629    o pkg/seaice/seaice_preconditioner.F: fix preconditioner once again
2630       - remove wrong parts of the rhs and the lhs (were in there
2631         because I did not understand the concept of this preconditioner)
2632       - add an exchange between u- and v-sweep. This increases communication
2633         by a factor of two but improves the convergence of jfnk. Ideally,
2634         one would like the u- and v-sweep to be independent. So far within
2635         undocumented ifdefs
2636       - reorganize the extra computations for printing the residuals
2637    o tools/genmake2:
2638      - comment out the "mpif.h" include in NetCDF test programm (for MPI built)
2639        since it's not necessary (and was preventing to use MNC in some cases).
2640    
2641    checkpoint64a (2012/11/16)
2642    o pkg/autodiff:
2643      - improve pkg-internal logical parameter switch (inAd/inFwd mode) so that
2644        autodiff_readparms.F no longer depends on calling order (within
2645        packages_readparms.F) and no longer requires to include ${PKG}_PARMS.h):
2646        rename param turnFreeDriftInAdMode to SEAICEuseFREEDRIFTswitchInAd
2647        and change param SEAICEuseDYNAMICSinAdMode to SEAICEuseDYNAMICSswitchInAd.
2648    o pkg/obcs:
2649      - adding tidal velocity forcing capability to obcs
2650        for usage example, see verification/seaice_obcs/input.tides
2651    o pkg/seaice:
2652      - turn the LSR-relaxation parameters WFAU/V into runtime parameters
2653        SEAICE_LSRrelaxU/V
2654      - introduce runtime parameter SEAICEetaZmethod (=0 by default)
2655    o pkg/aim_v23:
2656      - implement heating from friction (bottom friction and stratospheric drag).
2657    o pkg/shap_filt:
2658      - fix diagnostic "SHAP_dKE" (was 2 time smaller); implement heating from
2659        dissipation but only for Shap_funct=2, active when addFrictionHeating=T.
2660    o model/src:
2661      - move AddMass common block from DYNVARS.h to FFIELDS.h; allow to read-in
2662        time-constant addMass field from file (addMassFile);
2663      - support for heating due to friction (and Kinetic Energy dissipation):
2664        add option, run-time switch and 3-D field array + support code ; each pkg
2665        or S/R can add heating contribution (if there is a sink of KE); the sum is
2666        accounted for as a Temperature tendency term (EXTERNAL_FORCING_T).
2667    o pkg/seaice:
2668      - complete merge of ITD code into seaice_growth.F
2669        from MITgcm_contrib/torge/itd/code/
2670        no verification so far, but Torge Martin tested
2671        "1-D test case and Beaufort set up;
2672        deliver okay results after 1 model year."
2673      - complete merge of SEAICE_SIZE.h into all relevant routines
2674      - move computation of eta at Z-points into calc_viscosities
2675        + introduce global field etaZ
2676        + add different methods for computing etaZ, for now the old
2677          method (simple averages of eta to Z-points) is hardwired
2678        + replace etaMeanZ by etaZ in seaice_lsr, seaice_calc_residual,
2679          seaice_preconditioner
2680      - simplify computations for SEAICE_ZETA_SMOOTHREG
2681      - seaice_preconditioner:
2682        + replace one remaining press by pressLoc (mistake)
2683        + adjust printing of residuals
2684      - improve I/O of diagnostics of JFNK in seaice_jfnk.F:
2685        + add (SEAICE.h) and rename some counters (initiliased in
2686          seaice_init_fixed.F)
2687        + add _BEGIN/END_MASTER (myThid)  around print statements
2688        + print total number of iterations and failures over SEAICE_monFreq
2689          interval to STDOUT
2690      - move control over output-messages by fgmres to seaice_jfnk to save
2691        some operations
2692      - move resetting initial guess for fgmres outside of seaice_fgmres_driver
2693        in order to make restarts with sol .ne. zero (fgmres with restarts)
2694        (seaice_jfnk.F, seaice_fgmres.F)
2695      - seaice_calc_l/rhs.F: replace maskW/S by maskInW/S; this fixes
2696        a serious convergence problem when open boundaries are involved
2697    o pkg/ggl90: fix computation of control volumes for the case of
2698      ALLOW_GGL90_HORIZDIFF (probably not used very often): move control volumes
2699      up half a grid cell from C-centered to W-centered (pointed out by C. Eden)
2700    o pkg/seaice: simplify seaice_evp by avoiding use of extra fields u/vIceC
2701    o pkg/autodiff
2702      - Add inAdMode switch for SEAICEuseDYNAMICS:
2703        SEAICEuseDYNAMICSinAdMode
2704        (extend logic in ADAUTODIFF_INADMODE_SET)
2705    o pkg/seaice
2706      - Step 1 of merging ice-thickness distribution (ITD) code from
2707        MITgcm_contrib/torge/itd/ (author: Torge Martin)
2708        The code implements concept laid out in Thorndike et al. (1975);
2709        code is enabled via CPP flag SEAICE_ITD
2710        nITD (in SEAICE_SIZE.h) defines number of ice thickness categories;
2711        code is not complete yet!!
2712      - SEAICE_SIZE.h now included in almost all seaice routines
2713    o verification (using seaice):
2714      - switch back seaice-dynamics (+ lower SOLV_MAX_ITERS) in ADM exp.
2715        global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice ; update results.
2716      - compile B-grid dynamics in FW test exp 1D_ocean_ice_column ;
2717      - compile C-grid dynamics with #define SEAICE_ALLOW_JFNK in FW test exp
2718        offline_exf_seaice (previously compiling B-grid).
2719    o pkg/exf:
2720      - fix some STOP conditions in exf_check.F (from Aug 28, modifs did not allow
2721        to specify neither just 1 comp of wind or wind-stress, nor no surface momentum
2722        forcing): just replace CPP option ALLOW_ATM_WIND with run-time param useAtmWind.
2723    o pkg/layers (adjust changes from Sept 19):
2724      - do snap-shot output and fill diagnostics from inside iLa loop (layers_calc.F)
2725        this allows to remove "layers_maxNum" dimension from all layers arrays.
2726    o pkg/layers (adjust changes from Sept 19):
2727      - remove ALLOW_LAYERS_OUTPUT ; fix snap-shot and time-ave output ;
2728      - snap-shot extended to all type of layers (not just the 1rst type);
2729      - remove layers variables when corresponding CPP option is undef.
2730    o pkg/layers:
2731      - rename pkg/layers variable and add new output (layer exist & un-weighted
2732        velocity in layer)
2733    o pkg/seaice:
2734      - simplify (?) ocean-drag coefficent computations by using
2735        the same routine in all three solvers (saves some code lines)
2736      - remove global fields DRAGA and DRAGS from C-grid code and
2737        declare them locally in lsr.F (the only place where they are
2738        still used)
2739      - update AD output of lab_sea.evp (very sensitive anyway).
2740    o pkg/seaice: add Jacobian-free Newton Krylov solver for ice dynamics
2741      (Lemieux et al. 2010, 2012). Turn on with the usual SEAICE_ALLOW_JFNK
2742      and SEAICEuseJFNK=.true. A few things to note:
2743      - involves a FGMRES, that is parallel but very inefficient,
2744        because of many scalar products (global sums) in the Gram-Schmidt
2745        orthogonalization method. Needs to be replaced. Original code
2746        from J.-F. Lemieux
2747      - preconditioner for FGMRES is a stripped down version of LSOR
2748      - SOLV_MAX_ITERS is now used for LSOR as a solver and as a
2749        preconditioner. For the preconditioner, the default is set to 10.
2750      - Jacobian times vector is computed with finite differences
2751      - marginally related to JFNK-solver: add a smooth regularization for
2752        zeta with tanh that will improve convergence (Lemieux and Tremblay,
2753        2009) for any implicit solver (not implemented for EVP because EVP
2754        does not need this regularization in the first place). Define
2755        SEAICE_ZETA_SMOOTHREG in SEAICE_OPTIONS.h to use.
2756    o eesupp/src:
2757      - check in genmake2 that intrinsic S/R flush is available.
2758      - add S/R to flush IO unit (if intrinsic S/R flush is available)
2759      - flush standard & error msg unit before MPI termination
2760      - if debugMode, flush IO unit after printing msg
2761    o pkg/ctrl:
2762      - ctrl_unpack.F, ALLOW_GENARR3D_CONTROL code: fix missing argument in call
2763        to ctrl_set_unpack_xyz.
2764    
2765    checkpoint64 (2012/10/09)
2766    o pkg/shelfice
2767      - in mom_fluxform.F, mom_vecinv.F:
2768        CALL SHELFICE_V_DRAG(bi,bj,k,vFld,KE,KappaRU,vF,myThid)
2769        Bug fix KappaRU -> KappaRV
2770        does not change verification/isomip but may change other setups
2771        (presumably constant KappaRU=KappaRV)
2772      - fix diagnostics SHIU/Vdrag (thanks to Tom Millgate)
2773    o pkg/obcs:
2774      - fixed some indexing bugs in obcs_seaice_sponge.F
2775      - added obcs relaxation subroutines for HSALT and HSNOW
2776      - changes verification/seaice_obcs/results/obcs_seaice_sponge.F
2777    o pkg/seaice:
2778      - add "multicategory" parameterization for snow in analogy to ice,
2779        default is off for now.
2780    o pkg/obcs:
2781      - added obcs_seaice_sponge.F for obcs relaxation of seaice variables;
2782        see verification/seaice_obcs/input.seaiceSponge for example application.
2783      - remove local commom bloc "OBCS_GLOBAL" in obcs_readparms.F and do all the OB
2784        index setting by master-thread. This fix multi-threads Pb in previous modifs.
2785    o pkg/layers :
2786      - add diagnostics to pkg/layers
2787      - move the meat of pkg/layers from layers_calc.F to layers_fluxcalc.F
2788        (from R.Tulloch). Layers_calc.F now calls layers_fluxcalc.F accordingly.
2789    o pkg/generic_advdiff/gad_implicit_r.F :
2790      - fix ADVr diagnostics in case of both implicit vertical advection and diffusion.
2791    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F:
2792      - fix SItflux diagnostics in virtual salt flux + balanceEmpmr case.
2793    o pkg/obcs:
2794      - change default setting of OBCS_UVICE_OLD from defined to undef;
2795      - use new parameter OB_indexNone for null index value (instead of hard-coded 0)
2796        in all pkg/obcs code and in other pkgs; remove k loop in obcs_check_depths.F;
2797      - pass OB_indexNone as (new) argument to S/R CTRL_MASK_SET_[X,Y]Z;
2798      - change OB null index value (OB_indexNone) to -99 ; this fix the problem
2799        with Southern & Western OB at a tile edge (at least in a simple set-up).
2800    o pkg/obcs:
2801      - change settings of OB index in case OB coincides with tile edge (shared by
2802        2 tiles), so that common OB location is registered by both tiles (instead of
2803        only 1). However, for Southern and Western OB, index value = 0 is not
2804        recognized as valid OB index (=default null value) and needs to be fixed.
2805      - modify accordingly OBCS_BALANCE_FLOW and OBCS_MONITOR (avoid double counting)
2806      - new parameter "OB_indexNone" for null index value (for now, still zero)
2807        to replace hard-coded null index value of zero.
2808    o pkg/exch2:
2809      - improve W2_USE_E2_SAFEMODE (faster) and W2_E2_DEBUG_ON:
2810        always check buffer-size (but outside the loop); move checking for valid
2811        index from W2_USE_E2_SAFEMODE to W2_E2_DEBUG_ON; in W2_E2_DEBUG_ON,
2812        print each tile and point connection only if |W2_printMsg|>= 2 and 3.
2813    o pkg/ctrl (pack & unpack):
2814      - in ctrl_pack.F & ctrl_unpack.F, use the same local file-name variable
2815        (locally defined) for different variables (+ remove the variable-specific
2816        file name in CTRL_GENARR.h). For now, only implemented for GENARR2/3D_CONTROL
2817        (to be extended to other local file names in ctrl.h).
2818    o pkg/flt:
2819      - add a FLT_Iter0 option (similar to PTRACERS_Iter0).
2820    o pkg/mdsio:
2821      - fix missing STOP in mdsio_readvec_loc.F (case ioUnit=0) when file is missing
2822    o tools/genmake2:
2823      - add similar dependences for target EXE_AD & EXE_FTL as we have for EXECUTABLE
2824        (added by Alistair in version 1.51 for building without make depend);
2825      - remove Header files list (H_SRC_FILES) from the dependence of targets
2826         ad_input_code.f & ftl_input_code.f (not clear why it was added in the first
2827        place in version 1.23): this save going through staf when unrelated header
2828        file has been modified.
2829       Note: for an intermediate target (e.g., ad_input_code.f or adtaf) without
2830        "make depend" step, still need to do "make links" before "make adtaf".
2831    o eesupp/src (+ few pkg src files) & genmake2:
2832      - finish to remove ALWAYS_USE_MPI in source code that TAF does not see;
2833      - no longer set ALWAYS_USE_MPI in Makefile (was done by genmake2).
2834      - improve genmake2 checking for ALLOW_${PKG} in CPP_OPTIONS.h files (distinguish
2835         upper/lower case ; account for space between "#" and undef/define)
2836    o pkg/flt (with exch2):
2837      - cleaning: fix so that it compiles; move remaining MPI calls out of flt_exch2.F;
2838      - simplify threads synchronisation; fix (many issues) multi-threaded with MPI.
2839    
2840    checkpoint63s (2012/09/05)
2841    o pkg/ecco:
2842      - remove #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL3D brackets.
2843      - add more relevant #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH ones.
2844      - sort out useAtmWind, useSMOOTH, ctrlSmoothCorrel2D.
2845    o pkg/ctrl:
2846      - CTRL_OPTIONS.h : document CPPs related to smoothing; ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL2D/3D,
2847        ALLOW_CTRL_SMOOTH, ALLOW_SMOOTH_CTRL2D, ALLOW_SMOOTH_CTRL3D.
2848      - ctrl.h : document run time params doInitXX, doMainPack, doMainUnpack, doPackDiag,
2849        doSinglePrecTapelev (audodiff param!), ctrlSmoothCorrel2D (new) and
2850        ctrlSmoothCorrel3D (new).
2851        The added ctrlSmoothCorrel2D/3D replace the old ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL2D/3D CPP.
2852      - ctrl_readparms.F : initialise ctrlSmoothCorrel2D/3D and read from namelist.
2853      - ctrl_init.F ctrl_pack.F ctrl_unpack.F : switch off ustress/vstress
2854        controls when useAtmWind, and vice versa.
2855      - ctrl_map_ini_ecco.F : UVEL0, VVEL0, edtaux, edtauy cannot be smoothed as tracers.
2856      - ctrl_get_gen.F : replace #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL2D with
2857          #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH, IF ctrlSmoothCorrel2D, IF useSMOOTH.
2858      - ctrl_map_ini_gen.F : replace #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL3D with
2859          #ifdef ALLOW_SMOOTH, IF ctrlSmoothCorrel3D, IF useSMOOTH.
2860      - ctrl_set_pack_xy[z].F, ctrl_set_unpack_xy[z].F:
2861        replace ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL2D/3D brackets with ctrlSmoothCorrel2D/3D.
2862    o pkg/smooth:
2863      - remove un-necessary includes.
2864      - remove ALLOW_SMOOTH*D and ALLOW_SMOOTH_CORREL*D brakets.
2865        Those CPP options were never defined, and not necessary.
2866    o model/src:
2867      - fix CPP brackets in ini_mixing.F (GM_background_K belongs to gmredi).
2868      - standard treatment of useSMOOTH.
2869    o pkg/autodiff:
2870      - add LOGICAL useGGL90inAdMode, useGGL90inFwdMode, useSALT_PLUMEinAdMode,
2871        useSALT_PLUMEInFwdMode allowing to switch off ggl90 and salt_plume adjoint.
2872    o pkg/exch2:
2873      - add "if usingMPI" where it was missing (in exch2_rx?_cube*.template)
2874        + start to remove ALWAYS_USE_MPI in source code that TAF does not see.
2875      - make new S/R W2_MAP_PROCS out of w2_eeboot.F to setup exch2 CommonFlag
2876        and tiles to process mapping.
2877      - re-arrange 3 header files (W2_EXCH2_PARAMS.h, _BUFFER.h & _TOPOLOGY.h)
2878        moving /EXCH2_FILLVAL_RX/ & /W2_EXCH2_COMMFLAG/ to W2_EXCH2_TOPOLOGY.h;
2879        rename "exch2_tProc" to "W2_tileProc" and move seting of e2FillValue_RX
2880        from w2_eeboot.F to w2_readparms.F.
2881    o eesupp/src:
2882      - set exchNeedsMemsync & exchUsesBarrier according to "usingMPI" (instead of
2883        ALWAYS_USE_MPI) + moved from ini_communication_patterns.F to eeset_parms.F;
2884        also move setting of exchCollectStatistics from exch_init.F to eeset_parms.F
2885      - in eedie.F and all_proc_die.F, always call MPI_FINALIZE when ALLOW_USE_MPI
2886        is defined (remove condition on usingMPI) to match cases where MPI_INIT
2887        has been called.
2888      - fix bug I put in previous modif of exch_sm_3d_rx.template (not much used);
2889      - change default (non-MPI) value of myPid (from 1 to 0) to match MPI settings
2890        (so that on 1 proc, get same myPid independently of usingMPI)
2891      - add a stop if multi-procs but usingMPI=F ; stop also if usingMPI=T and
2892        useCubedSphereExchange with EXCH-1 (safer).
2893      - add "if usingMPI" where it was missing (+ start to remove ALWAYS_USE_MPI).
2894    o pkg/ggl90:
2895      - fix bug in filling corner mask array "mskCor" (FILL_CS_CORNER_TR_RL call)
2896        used in ALLOW_GGL90_SMOOTH code.
2897    o pkg/flt:
2898      - fix typo in FLT_WITHOUT_Y_PERIODICITY (the effect was to ignore stopping
2899        floats at the Southern end of the domain).
2900    o eesupp/inc:
2901      - add a list of CPP-options which can be set by Makefile (DEF_IN_MAKEFILE.h);
2902        but not used (and not to be used) anywhere, just for documentation.
2903    o pkg/autodiff, exf, ptracers & seaice (AD & TL output):
2904      - comment out the very nasty "writeBinaryPrec = writeStatePrec" line, since:
2905        a) can damage previously written records in any other multi-record files.
2906        b) if needed, can easily do it cleanly, by calling S/R WRITE_REC_3D_RL/S.
2907    o tools/genmake2:
2908      - define variable MAKE within Makefile and use it in place of 'make';
2909      - update AD_CONFIG.h (if needed) before building any of the executable
2910        (forward, adjoint or tangent-lin); this involves a 2nd invocation of make;
2911        and add the usual #ifndef/#define AD_CONFIG_H in AD_CONFIG.h;
2912      - always print usual warning comment 'this file is automatically generated'
2913        from script convert_cpp_cmd2defines (+ remove this warning from genmake2).
2914    o pkg/cheapaml:
2915      - updated to correspond to the code used in accepted paper (Nico Wienders).
2916    o pkg/exf:
2917        added run time switch useAtmWind to replace ALLOW_ATM_WIND cpp switch.
2918        ALLOW_ATM_WIND now just sets the useAtmWind default (see exf_readparms.F)
2919        and force defines ALLOW_BULKFORMULAE (EXF_OPTIONS.h).
2920    o pkg/exf, autodiff, ctrl, ecco and seaice:
2921        remove ALLOW_ATM_WIND brackets, or replace them with useAtmWind ones.
2922    o pkg/ctrl, ecco:
2923        allow to compile both ALLOW_U/VSTRESS_CONTROL and ALLOW_U/VWIND_CONTROL.
2924        Depending on useAtmWind, one is inactive, and the other is active (see
2925        exf_getffields.F/exf_getsurfacefluxes.F).
2926    o tools/genmake2:
2927      - improve error msg when failing in 2nd test of check_for_broken_Ff
2928      - fix option '-makefile' short-name (-mf according to genmake2 -help)
2929      - source local config file "genmake_local" just after processing the genmake2
2930        command arguments (previously done before processing arg).
2931    o pkg/grdchk:
2932      - add a call to TURNOFF_MODEL_IO for Tangent-Linear run (in this case, call
2933        to this routine from cost_final has been dropped in g_cost_final)
2934      - improve printed information (more explicit msg, no longer using "print *,"
2935         fix fcpertminus printed value).
2936    o model/src:
2937      - move call to COST_INIT_VARIA out of packages_init_variables.F directly
2938        into initialise_varia.F (just after calling PACKAGES_INIT_VARIABLES):
2939        this prevents getting cost-funct reset in adinitialise_varia recomputations.
2940    o pkg/dic:
2941      - move initialisation of "freefe" array from from dic_biotic_forcing.F to
2942        fe_chem.F: this prevents TAF from dropping this initialisation in TLM code.
2943    o pkg/grdchk:
2944      - grdchk_main.F : added CALL GLOBAL_SUM_INT( ierr , myThid )
2945      - grdchk_getadxx.F etc. : omit I/O if ierr.EQ.0
2946    o pkg/autodiff/ctrl/grdchk :
2947      - attempt to sort out what works and what does not,
2948        with regard to I/O, and to warn/stop accordingly.
2949    o pkg/grdchk:
2950      - attempt to fix grdchk in the case of useSingleCpuIO.
2951      - "if ( myProcId .EQ. grdchkwhichproc .AND. ierr .EQ. 0 )"
2952       statements were moved from grdchk_main.F and into
2953       grdchk_getadxx.F grdchk_getxx.F grdchk_setxx.F.
2954      - a global sum is applied to record numbers icvrec/layer
2955       out of grdchk_loc so that they be passed to I/O routines.
2956    o pkg/smooth:
2957      - fix recomputation that appeared with nlfs : use smooth_recip_hFacC,
2958        smooth_hFacW, smooth_hFacS (copied at init_fixed) in 3d case.
2959    o verification/testreport:
2960      - add option '-tlm' for Tangent-Linear test (-adm,-oad,-tlm are all exclusive);
2961      - can also use compressed (gzip) reference output file;
2962      - change format (in pkg/grdchk) of TLM output (+ add forward gradient)
2963        to be easier to collect by testreport.
2964      - update existing TLM output (half out-of-date by more than 3 yrs).
2965      - report NETCDF & LAPACK settings (from genmake2) in output dir.
2966      - report run-time in each individual summary (previously only for AD test);
2967        for TLM test, add also TAF version.
2968      - add daily TLM test on (old) aces cluster + weekly test on baudelaire.
2969    
2970    checkpoint63r (2012/08/15)
2971    o tools/genmake2:
2972      - fix Makefile for target ftlall (+ update files to clean after make ftlall)
2973    o pkg/ecco/ecco_cost_final.F :
2974      - fix fc print statements (to stdout and costfunction0000) so
2975        that the printed value is always after the global sum.
2976    o pkg/seaice/seaice_dynsolver.F :
2977      - fix ice strength assymptote at SEAICE_area_max<1
2978        (no change for the standard case of SEAICE_area_max=1)
2979    o some cleaning:
2980      - pkg source files: ensure that all *.F files from each pkg included the
2981        corresponding ${PKG}_OPTIONS.h file (except stand-alone src file which
2982        only includes CPP_EEOPTIONS.h); fix S/R CTRL_SMOOTH ; update AD experiment
2983        code_ad/*.F src files; add new option-file in pkg/admtlm + corresponding
2984        includes;
2985      - model/src: add PACKAGES_CONFIG.h wherever ALLOW_AUTODIFF[_TAMC] is used.
2986      - ALLOW_DIFFKR_CONTROL: add a stop in S/R CTRL_CHECK in case ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR
2987        is undef; also define /DYNVARS_DIFFKR/ common block in DYNVARS.h when
2988        ALLOW_DIFFKR_CONTROL is defined, to allow to compile and reach this stop.
2989      - update option-file CPP_OPTIONS.h of all AD experiments:
2990        * no longer include PACKAGES_CONFIG.h ;
2991        * includes ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h if PACKAGES_CONFIG.h has been included ;
2992        * def/undef ALLOW_3D_DIFFKR independently of ALLOW_DIFFKR_CONTROL (before
2993          including ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h).
2994    o pkg/cost, pkg/ctrl, pkg/ecco option-file:
2995      - clean-up and split content of old pkg/ecco/ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h file into
2996        separated pkg option-file (done according to old doc from ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h,
2997        not necessary accurate).
2998      - add a template for option-file ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h, mostly empty, in
2999        pkg/autodiff, i.e., the 1rst pkg to compile for adjoint built, with lines to
3000        deliberately break compilation (a remainder that it needs to be customized)
3001      - in pkg/ecco, includes ECCO_OPTIONS.h instead of COST_OPTIONS.h
3002      - rename COST_CPPOPTIONS.h to COST_OPTIONS.h
3003      - rename CTRL_CPPOPTIONS.h to CTRL_OPTIONS.h
3004    o tools/genamke2:
3005      - check for lapack.
3006    o pkg/cost and pkg/ecco : attempt to sort out some of the limiting intricacies.
3007      - pkg/cost.cost_final.F : allow for use of pkg/ecco and pkg/cost cost functions
3008        jointly. The exclusive ifdefs were removed, to add costs terms (when defined)
3009        from both packages.
3010      - the fc global sum in pkg/ecco/ecco_cost_final.F was removed accordingly.
3011      - for objf_atl we use either the pkg/ecco or the pkg/cost term depending on CPPs.
3012      - pkg/ecco and model/src : add CPP brackets around pkg/cost and pkg/ctrl includes
3013        of "CTRL_SIZE.h" "ctrl.h" "ctrl_dummy.h" "optim.h" / "cost.h" accordingly.
3014    o pkg/cost : add comments to explain special and/or untested setups.
3015    o pkg/exf:
3016      - use EXF_OPTIONS.h to set pkg/exf options except if done in ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h
3017        (previously, ALLOW_AUTODIFF_TAMC was controling this switch).
3018    o verification/*/code_ad:
3019      mimimal cleaning of AD experiments ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h option-file:
3020      - reccord when this file is included (define ECCO_CPPOPTIONS_H)
3021      - remove the most obvious obsolete features (e.g., #define ALLOW_COST not
3022        allowed since Oct 2003 in any option-file except in PACKAGES_CONFIG.h)
3023    o pkg/seaice :
3024      - added possibility to change ice strength/PRESS0 relationship to
3025        HEFF, according to the following run time parameters
3026        SEAICEpresPow0 :: HEFF exponent for ice strength below SEAICEpresH0 (integer, >0)
3027        SEAICEpresPow1 :: HEFF exponent for ice strength above SEAICEpresH0 (integer, >0)
3028        SEAICEpresH0   :: HEFF threshold for ice strength            (m)
3029    o pkg/ggl90 :
3030      - added run time flag mxlSurfFlag to include the code that ensure
3031        mixing between first and second level (previously included as a comment)
3032    o verification/1D_ocean_ice_column/input_ad/data.autodiff :
3033      - add test of newly added dumpAdByRec=T option where
3034        we write all records to one file per variable.
3035    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/code_ad/CPP_OPTIONS.h :
3036      - switch to #define ALLOW_BALANCE_RELAX and ALLOW_BALANCE_FLUXES
3037        to check that this code is ok with taf and compiles in adjoint.
3038    o pkg/autodiff :
3039      - added run time param dumpAdByRec : ad dump format switch.
3040        If true then write all records to one file per variable.
3041        Else write one file per record (remains the default).
3042      - revise seaice_ad_dump.F and exf_adjoint_snapshots_ad.F accordingly.
3043    o pkg/seaice:
3044     - Added SEAICEuseTILT run time switch : if set to
3045       false then omit the tilt term in seaice dynamics.
3046     - Fix free drift calculation.
3047    o pkg/shelfice:
3048      When initializing SHELFICEDragQuadratic, set default to be
3049      consistent with shiCdrag in case SHELFICEuseGammaFrict is used,
3050      but retain option to set it independently
3051      (inconsistenty spotted by Veronique Dansereau)
3052    o eesupp/inc:
3053      - in EEPARAMS.h, add real-type constant for some frequently used simple number
3054         (0,1,2,1/2), with name explicitly referring to RS/RL type.
3055    o model/src:
3056      - move balancing of relaxation terms to new S/R balance_relax.F.
3057    o pkg/autodiff:
3058      re-write active I/O high-level (control) S/R:
3059      - rename  S/R ACTIVE_READ/WRITE_RL to ACTIVE_READ/WRITE_3D_RL
3060      - add 1 more argument (useCurrentDir) to replace the "_LOC" 2nd set of S/R.
3061      - use standard pkg/mdsio I/O routines (MDS_READ/WRITE_SEC_XZ/YZ  and
3062        MDS_READ/WRITE_FIELD); change loops to multi-threads.
3063      - update and merge active_file_control_slice.flow into active_file_control.flow
3064      - update the calls in lower level S/R (active_file.F, active_file_g.F and
3065        active_file_ad.F) keeping the argument list and function unchanged.
3066      - also update lower-level "_LOC" version (call same S/R with "useCurrentDir
3067        =.TRUE.") and remove high-level (control) _loc version (not called anymore).
3068      - new low-level active I/O routines, one for each type (RL/RS), for active var
3069        of various (XY,XZ,YZ) shape and level number (arguments: arrShape, myNr);
3070        fix ctrl_init_wet.F & ecco_cost_weights.F by calling the new S/R with the
3071        right type.
3072    o autodiff and RS=real*4:
3073      - call the right type (_RS instead of _RL) of S/R in few output S/R (pkg/exf
3074        ad-monitor and snapshots); disable arrType='RS' in mdsio_gl*.F ;
3075      - change argument type of 3-D mask argument to _RS to match type in the call
3076        (in seaice_cost*.F, ctrl_*_gen.F and *ctrl_bound.F); to be continued.
3077    o pkg/thsice:
3078      - re-anable balanceEmPmR when useSEAICE=T with useThSIce=T.
3079      - option to correct ocean fresh-water flux for imbalance of Atmos+Land
3080        fresh-water flux: uniform correction or proportional to local precip.
3081    o pkg/ctrl:
3082      - new header file CTRL_SIZE.h for parameters maxCtrlArr2D, maxCtrlArr3D
3083      - redefine CPP option ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG_CONTROL to
3084                            ALLOW_BOTTOMDRAG_CONTROL_NONGENERIC
3085      - verification/hs94.1x64x5/ tests ALLOW_GENARR{2D,3D}_CONTROL
3086    
3087    checkpoint63q (2012/07/30)
3088    o pkg/autodiff:
3089      note about monitor and snap-shot of ad-variables:
3090      a) need to apply ADEXCH before monitor or output of ad-vars to include
3091       overlap contributions (was done for adjDump but missing for monitor).
3092      b) since ADEXCH implies adding overlap values to interior array, machine
3093       truncation error is expected when adding an ADEXCH call in the middle of
3094       the time-stepping (although mathematically identical).
3095      modifs:
3096      - fix some incorrect type (RL/RS, UV/scalar) in ADEXCH calls and ad-vars
3097        declaration (adEddyPsiX,adEddyPsiY in adcommon.h).
3098      - add new run-time params (dumpAdVarExch & mon_AdVarExch) to select how  to
3099        apply ADEXCH before monitor or snap-shot of ad-variables:
3100           =0 : no ADEXCH ; =1 : do ADEXCH ; =2 : apply ADEXCH on a local copy.
3101      - implement new method (copy+adexch) for snap-shot and monitor of main model
3102        ad-vars (initially not used by default -> output unchanged).
3103      - change default (set to 2) to use new method and update few output_adm.txt
3104        with accurate ad-monitor (global_ocean.90x40x15, tutorial_global_oce_biogeo
3105        and both tutorial_tracer_adjsens tests).
3106      - switch 2 global_ocean.cs32x15 AD-tests to AB-2 (seaice_dynmix & thsice)
3107        and turn off momDissip_In_AB in the 2 other (needed for stable AB-3).
3108    o pkg/ctrl:
3109      enable the use of a variable number (maxCtrlArr2D, maxCtrlArr3D) of
3110      generic control variables via
3111      #define ALLOW_GENARR2D_CONTROL and/or #define ALLOW_GENARR3D_CONTROL
3112      Only required customization should be S/R ctrl_map_ini_genarr.F
3113      (routine in repository contains example)
3114    o pkg/exf:
3115      - fix and refine checking of surface-relaxation setting when using EXF
3116    o verification (adjoint exp):
3117      - reduce length of simulation by half for experiment global_ocean.cs32x15
3118        (std, seaice & seaice_dynmix) and exp tutorial_dic_adjoffline; update output.
3119    o pkg/mom_common (mom_u/v_bottomdrag), pkg/shelfice (shelfice_u/v_drag)
3120      - replace if statements KE.ne.0 with KE.gt.0 to avoid sqrt of negative numbers
3121        of KE that can occur with aggressive optimization
3122      + put quadratic bottom drag calculation in separated loops (only done if
3123        using bottomDragQuadratic)
3124    o model/src: CG2D_NSA
3125      - clean-up:  stop if cg2dNormaliseRHS=T and AUTODIFF
3126         and replace GLOBAL_SUM calls with GLOBAL_SUM_TILE.
3127      - in test-exp that uses CG2D_NSA (bottom_ctrl & tutorial_tracer_adjsens),
3128         change cg2d residual target to be expressed in Wunits (=> do not normalise
3129         RHS ; this fix global_max Pb with TAF); update output.
3130    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens:
3131       improve parameter consistency (and get rid of warnings):
3132       - use deltaTFreeSurf=deltaTtracer (better with NonLin FreeSurf);
3133       - switch Temp Adv Scheme from 81 to 80 (no limiter since theta < 0 is physical)
3134       - use staggerTimeStep (for stability) in som81; use default rotation period.
3135    o pkg/exch2:
3136      - with empty facet: fix compact-format (W2_mapIO=1) definition (was previously
3137        reset to 0 = 1 long line in X)
3138    o pkg/mdsio:
3139      - fix reading of dimensions from meta file for large-size domain
3140    o model/src:
3141      - fix saltIsActiveTr setting for IdealGas eosType (eosType is 6 character long);
3142      - to refine CS-grid check, add logical flag "hasWetCSCorners": true if using
3143        Cubed-Sphere Exch with CS-corners inside the domain;
3144        make new S/R INI_GLOBAL_DOMAIN from code in ini_linear_phisurf.F to calculate
3145        globalArea and to set hasWetCSCorners.
3146      - add warning if usingCurvilinearGrid and momAdvection in flux-form (missing
3147        metric terms); stop if hasWetCSCorners=T and momAdvection in flux-form.
3148      - re-activate the stop if useCDscheme and hasWetCSCorners=T (previously if
3149        useCDscheme and useCubedSphereExchange).
3150    o pkg/seaice/seaice_growth.F :
3151      - compute the SEAICE_DISABLE_HEATCONSFIX term accordingly
3152        for the (.NOT.useRealFreshWaterFlux).OR.(nonlinFreeSurf.EQ.0)
3153        when the previous code was not correct.
3154      - in all cases diagnoze the boundary condition mismatch to SIaaflux
3155      - in the case of useRealFreshWaterFlux.AND.(nonlinFreeSurf.GT.0) add
3156        that term to QNET (essentially to set the melt/freeze water to 0degC).
3157        when SEAICEheatConsFix is true, so that the ocean+ice budget heat is closed.
3158    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.seaice :
3159      - add SEAICEheatConsFix in data.seaice, ensuring closed ocean+ice heat budget.
3160      - add diagnostics (commented out) for budget test using my matlab codes (gcmfaces).
3161      - update results (output.seaice.txt) accordingly.
3162    o verification/lab_sea/input/data.seaice :
3163      - remove SEAICEheatConsFix, which is now be tested
3164        in global_ocean.cs32x15. The presently coded fix
3165        is only consistent with real fresh water + nlfs.
3166      - update results (output.txt) accordingly.
3167    o pkg/salt_plume: added diagnotic for salt tendency (oceSPtnd).
3168    o AD_CONFIG.h file:
3169      - in genmake2: remove "#undef ALLOW_ECCO_OPTIMIZATION" from AD_CONFIG.h;
3170      - remove #include "AD_CONFIG.h" from all included OPTIONS files and
3171        add it explicitly in each fortran src file where it is needed.
3172        motivation: header file AD_CONFIG.h is generated/modified after "make depend"
3173        thus introducing potentially wrong dependency; therefore, better to include
3174        it only where it's really needed, and after any other included OPTIONS file
3175        (less tempting to bring conditional includes according to ALLOW_ADJOINT_RUN
3176        or ALLOW_TANGENTLINEAR_RUN).
3177    
3178    checkpoint63p (2012/07/06)
3179  o pkg/autodiff:  o pkg/autodiff:
3180    - rename S/R INI_AUTODIFF to AUTODIFF_INIT_VARIA ;    - rename S/R INI_AUTODIFF to AUTODIFF_INIT_VARIA ;
3181    - create new header file "AUTODIFF_PARAMS.h" for pkg/autodiff parameters    - create new header file "AUTODIFF_PARAMS.h" for pkg/autodiff parameters

3194        saltAdvScheme=81,        saltAdvScheme=81,
3195    o model/src:
3196      - introduce ALLOW_BALANCE_RELAX which allow the removal
3197       of the global mean of relaxation terms by setting
3198       balanceThetaClimRelax and balanceSaltClimRelax
3199      - disable balanceEmPmR and balanceQnet in the case when useSeaice.
3200       This case is now treated appropriately in seaice_growth.F
3201    o pkg/seaice:
3202      - do balanceEmPmR and balanceQnet based on the net fluxes
3203        (SItflux) that enter the ocean+ice system rather than QNET
3204        and EMPMR. Works best in real fresh water.
3205      - SIatmFW, SIatmQnet, and SItflux computations had to be moved
3206        out of the diagnotics bloc, and stored in global arrays.
