4      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV      Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
5      ==============================      ==============================
6    
7  o verification/isomip, pkg/shelfic and OpenAD:  o useSingleCpuInput separates single-CPU input from single-CPU output;
8        for now only implemented for in exf_interp_read.F
9    o verification/advect_xy:
10      - fix missing EXCH call in local version of ini_salt.F and update output.
11    o momentum diagnostics:
12      - fix which deltaT is used in Total-Tendency diagnostics.
13      - fix typo in diagnostics for momentum tendency from AB.
14    o pkg/seaice/seaice_lsr.F: fix an initialisation bug for the
15        SEAICE_VECTORIZE_LSR_ZEBRA option that lead to NaNs on a NEC-SX8
16    
17    checkpoint64r (2013/12/08)
18    o verification/*/results:
19      - Update reference output of experiments that were passing with just 13 digits
20         (make it easier to detect future changes in results)
21    o model/src & pkg/ptracers:
22      - move calls to GAD_ADVECTION (Multi-Dim advection) from thermodynamics.F to
23        inside temp_integrate.F and salt_integrate.F and from ptracers_advection.F
24        to inside ptracers_integrate.F ; remove ptracers_advection.F
25    o coupling interface pkgs:
26        [atm_compon_interf, ocn_compon_interf & atm_ocn_coupler]
27      - change the config check to test the agreement of Ocean Depth
28        with ATM land/sea mask (instead of ATM orography);
29      - send to coupler the number of coupler time-steps to do for this run:
30        this allows to check for consistency and don't need anymore to be
31        specified in parameter file "data";
32      in coupler:
33      - check consistency of RunOff map versus Ocean Depth and ATM land/sea mask.
34      - improve report to log-file of config setting (pass log-file unit to few S/R)
35    o pkg/compon_communic:
36      - add coupling send/receive for non-tiled integer vector;
37      - add S/R to check and stop if any proc has an error (similar to
38        eesupp/src/stop_if_error.F but single thread and across Comm_World).
39    o pkg/exch2:
40      - in exch2*_get_rx[1,2]: use new list "W2_tileIndex" to replace search
41        through list of all tiles my proc owns.
42    o model/src:
43      - AUTODIFF only: in calc_adv_flow.F, recompute rTransKp (instead of copying
44        from rTrans) to simplify dependencies (no need to store rTrans anymore in
45        calling S/R); this affects AD results at machine truncation level:
46        update AD-output (TAF) of experiments: 1D_ocean_ice_column,
47        bottom_ctrl_5x5 & obcs_ctrl (12 digits for AD grad, same FWD grad).
48    o tools/build_options:
49      - simplify Warnings options (-ieee & -devel cases) in linux_amd64_gfortran
50    o coupling interface pkgs:
51        [compon_communic, atm_compon_interf & ocn_compon_interf]
52      - move declaration of local array "ibuf" out of header file "CPLR_SIG.h"
53        to each S/R that needs it; remove un-used variables.
54      - change component tile registration (cpl_register.F in both compon_interf
55        and mitcomponent_tile_register.F) to pass the full list of tiles
56        information (including bi,bj) in 1 vector (instead of in a bi,bj matrix).
57      - with pkg/exch2: adopt the same convention used for I/O to define mapping
58        towards coupler global array (unless W2_useE2ioLayOut=F):
59         a) can now use different tiling between atm & ocn comp.
60         b) no needs to modify the run-Off map when changing tiling (was needed
61            even if using the same tiling between atm & ocn).
62         c) will allow to run with blank-tiles in 1 component (e.g., for ocean
63            full land tiles); not yet tested.
64      - check for valid mapping from comp. tile to coupler global array
65      - improve report of tile registration results to log file.
66    o pkg/exch2:
67      - in eesupp/src/eeboot.F: move call to W2_EEBOOT before Coupler
68        tile-registration (CPL_REGISTER);
69      - activate (un-comment) definition and setting of "W2_tileIndex" list to
70        store the local bi,bj indices of each tile;
71      - also print bi,bj in local report to log file;
72      - fix pkg/debug/debug_cs_corner_uv.F for the case nSy > 1 (left from
73        Jun 2009 modif of pkg/exch2).
74    o testing on baudelaire:
75      - run 2 tests at a time: no significant slow down (since enough cpu) and
76        get the full set of test done earlier
77      - switch the ifort test to "-devel" ; run the OpenAD test everyday.
78    o model/src/thermodynamics.F and routines called from it:
79      - pkg/gmredi: gmredi_residual_flow.F (replacing gmredi_calc_uvflow.F &
80        gmredi_calc_wflow.F) to update eulerian velocity (input) into residual
81        velocity (outp) by adding bolus velocity.
82      - model/src: calc_adv_flow.F (replacing calc_common_factors.F) to compute
83        mass transport from velocity + lateral grid cell area
84      - rename calc_gt.F to temp_integrate.F (includes call to TIMESTEP_TRACER)
85      - rename calc_gs.F to salt_integrate.F (includes call to TIMESTEP_TRACER)
86     in thermodynamics.F
87      - remove k from thermodynamics.F and move it to temp_integrate.F
88        salt_integrate.F and ptracers_integrate.F (now done inside the tracer
89        loop).
90      - compute locally (in thermodynamics.F) 3-D velocity field that is used to
91        advect tracers; pass it as argument to GAD_ADVECTION, GAD_SOM_ADVECT,
92        PTRACERS_ADVECTION, TEMP_INTEGRATE, SALT_INTEGRATE, PTRACERS_INTEGRATE,
93        GAD_IMPLICIT_R and PTRACERS_IMPLICIT
94      - update AD-output (TAF & OAD) of experiments: 1D_ocean_ice_column,
95        global_ocean.90x40x15, tutorial_global_oce_biogeo and
96        tutorial_tracer_adjsens (+ TLM output).
97    o tools/OAD_support and (verification/*/) code_oad:
98      - OAD_support/cb2mGetModules.csh: add PACKAGES_CONFIG.h in header file to
99        module conversion ; remove unneeded CPP_EEOPTIONS.h.
100      - code_oad/CPP_OPTIONS.h: remove PACKAGES_CONFIG.h and use a more standard
101        version (closer to model/inc/CPP_OPTIONS.h).
102    o model/src:
103      - remove parameter "useOldFreezing" from PARAMS.h and push it to the
104        retired list of parameters (routine FREEZE has been replace by surface
105        freezing (10.yrs ago) and by pkg/frazil (interior freezing).
106    o pkg/gmredi:
107      - add option (GM_CALC_TRANSP_FROM_VEL) to compute transport directly from
108        velocity (same scheme but affects machine truncation) for GM_AdvForm.
109      - update output of FWD experiments: front_relax.bvp,
110        global_ocean.90x40x15.dwnslp, global_ocean.cs32x15 and ideal_2D_oce.
111    
112    checkpoint64q (2013/11/17)
113    o verification:
114      - generate new output on baudelaire (gfortran, -ieee) for OpenAD experiments
115        tutorial_global_oce_biogeo and global_ocean.90x40x15.
116      - generate new output (growth & melt) for seaice_itd experiment after
117        updating the input pickup_seaice files (previously wrong).
118    o pkg/cost:
119      - define a "final cost function" for each tile, and use GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL
120        (instead of _GLOBAL_SUM_RL) to get the final cost from all procs & threads:
121        o this fixes global-sum value if multi-threads (since GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL
122          cannot be applied to var in common block).
123        o allows to get results independent of tile-per-proc setting (if using
124          slower GLOBAL_SUM_SEND_RECV option).
125      - update accordingly: seaice_cost_final.F, shelfice_cost_final.F,
126        thsice_cost_final.F and ecco_cost_final.F (this one affects lab_sea
127        forward gradients: update output).
128      - update */code_oad/externalDummies.F by adding dummy GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL
129        S/R and, for most exp., also comment out GLOBAL_SUM_R8.
130    o pkg/mom_common:
131      - move to pkg/mom_common and model/src (previously in tutorial_deep_convection
132        code) 2nd version of isotropic 3-D Smagorinsky code interface: strain and
133        viscosity are locally declared in dynmics.F and pass as argument to CALC_GW;
134        ensure that all field value that are used are set.
135    o tutorial_deep_convection (smag3d):
136      - add missing scaling in mom_calc_smag_3d.F;
137      - set smag3D_coeff in input.smag3d such that results do not change.
138    o pkg/dic:
139      - change dic_cost.F to compute cost on each tile first and then apply
140        GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL: this affects forward gradient of AD experiments
141        tutorial_dic_adjoffline & tutorial_global_oce_biogeo; update output.
142      - remove kLev argument and use GLOBAL_SUM_TILE_RL in tracer_meanarea.
143    o eesupp/src & pkg/mdsio:
144      - remove gather/scatter_vector.F (from eesupp) and mdsio_read/writevector.F
145        (from pkg/mdsio) since they are no longer used for tape IO.
146      - move simple C subroutine "setdir.c" from pkg/compon_communic to eesupp/src
147        (+ keep a copy in pkg/atm_ocn_coupler).
148    o verification/isomip:
149      - split domain in 8 squared tiles (instead of just 2) for FWD, AD & OAD tests.
150    o tools/build_options:
151      - optfile linux_amd64_ifort11, fast (no ieee) case:
152        to get a working restart for all experiments, add "-fp-model source"
153        to FOPTIM (also remove "-opt-streaming-stores auto" <- this is the default).
154    
155    checkpoint64p (2013/10/20)
156    o pkg/autodiff:
157      - adread_adwrite.F: when type and length do not match ALLOW_AUTODIFF_WHTAPEIO
158        criteria, return to simple (default) tape IO format.
159    o pkg/mdsio (+ eesupp/src):
160      - rewrite/simplify tape-IO S/R (new S/R MDS_READ/WRITE_TAPE replace
161        previous MDSREAD/WRITEVECTOR) with 2 array argument from each type (R4/R8);
162      - fix globalFile and singleCpuIO options using simpler global mapping.
163      - new pairs of scatter/gather vector S/R (one for each type, generated from
164        template) corresponding to simpler global mapping.
165      - adread_write.F: switch to new S/R (but leave old calls commented) and write
166        to globalFile when parameter globalFiles is set to True.
167      - switch on useSingleCpuIO in AD experiments: global_ocean.90x40x15 & isomip.
168    o pkg/autodiff:
169      - adread_adwrite.F: add a hack for RS arrays (when RS=real*4);
170        with ALLOW_AUTODIFF_WHTAPEIO defined, since corresponding (real*4) is
171        missing, just add a STOP if array type do not match.
172    o pkg/exf:
173      - to allow to use seaice-fraction from pkg/exf in other pkgs than pkg/seaice:
174         rename CPP option EXF_ALLOW_SEAICE_RELAX to EXF_SEAICE_FRACTION
175         and rename array obsSIce to exf_iceFraction.
176    o tutorial_deep_convection:
177      - add 1rst version of isotropic 3-D Smagorinsky code (from Louis-Philippe),
178        for now all in this exp. code dir.
179      - add secondary test using Smag-3D viscosity (keep very low backgroud visc for
180        testing) and flux-limter advection scheme for Temp. (no explicit diffusion).
181    o eesupp/src:
182      - added SINGLE_DISK_IO option because reading of parameter files on
183        very large number of processors did not work with existing set-up
184    
185    checkpoint64o (2013/09/25)
186    o pkg/atm_phys & atm_compon_interf:
187      - allows for coupling of gray-atmosphere (atm_phys) with ocean.
188    o tools/build_options:
189      - switch from "-fPIC" to "-mcmodel=medium" in optfiles: linux_amd64_gfortran
190        & linux_amd64_ifort11 and in linux_amd64_g77 & linux_amd64_open64 also
191        remove CPP setting (was identical to genmake2 default).
192    o pkg/gmredi & model/src: Some updating and work done on the residual model.
193      - created new file model/src/calc_eddy_stress.F to calculate the eddy stress.
194      - fixed up the calculation of the eddy stress and how it is added to the
195        external forcing via taueddy_external_forcing.F
196      - at the moment, it is very experimental and only works with the variable eddy
197        diffusivity calculated in gmredi_k3d.F
198    o pkg/seaice/seaice_check.F: add a check to catch the case of specifying
199        lw/swfluxfile instead of lw/swdownfile in data.exf together with pkg/seaice
200    o testreport (& tools/do_tst_2+2):
201      - for MPI test, set default COMMAND to 'mpirun -v -np TR_NPROC ./{executable}'
202    o tools/build_options: linux_amd64_gfortran & linux_amd64_ifort11:
203      - remove CPP='cpp -traditional -P' (this is genmake2 default)
204      - add switch (for big setups) to use 'medium' memory-model (but leave it
205        commented out for now). Note: needed with FC 19 to compile big setups.
206    o pkg/atm_compon_interf:
207      - regroup per field origin (model & pkgs) the coupling storage routines
208         (which accumalate in time each coupling field)
209      - move bi,bj loops inside atm_store_my_data.F and store also wind-stress;
210        update accordingly + simplify aim_do_physics.F
211    
212    checkpoint64n (2013/08/26)
213    o pkg/bbl:
214      - update formulation to reduce dispersion of tracer properties in bbl
215      - replaced horizontal and vertical transport parameters with velocities
216      - changes results for verification/global_with_exf.yearly
217    o verification/halfpipe_streamice:
218      - change to matrix construction; update both Fwd & AD output.
219    o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens:
220      - OpenAD test: switch to vector-invariant momentum since fluxform with
221        rStar causes problems with OpenAD; update output.
222    o tools:
223      - genmake2: define a common prefix for all temp-file names ; move them
224        to local /tmp disk (but would be easy to move them back);
225      - xmakedepend: apply the same switch for temp-files.
226    o pkg/offline:
227      - changes for use with rStar (NLFS): assume that we continue to provide
228        UVELMASS/hFacW_ini & VVELMASS/hFacS_ini (hFacWi,S_ini as written in grid
229        output files) and apply r* scaling at each time-step (function of the time
230        varying Eta field); use normal pickup files (needed for restart with NLFS).
231    o adjoint with OpenAD:
232      - move OpenAD-specific files from verification/OpenAD/code_oad_all to a new
233        package openad.  This package has to be compiled for all runs with OpenAD
234        instead of specifying code_oad_all as a modification directory.
235      - link the fortran templates from tools/OAD_support to the build directory
236        for preprocessing to avoid conflicts between different setups compiled
237        simultaneously and simplify cleanup.
238    o pkg/exf:
239      - in exf_getforcing.F: comment out most of the EXCH calls (fields used by
240        main model or other pkgs are exchanged in EXF_MAPFIELDS).
241    o model/src:
242      - do_stagger_fields_exchanges.F: skip EXCH calls when using pkg/offline
243        (similar to do_fields_blocking_exchanges.F).
244    o tools/genmake2:
245      - remove TAF output src code just before calling staf (when not doing a fresh
246        built, will stop if things go wrong with staf).
247      - fix target "adobj" (left from TAF version-2 transition)
248    o pkg/diagnostics:
249      - add a parameter to track the status of pkg/diagnostics activation;
250        this replace/extend the use of logical param "settingDiags" (to check
251        when adding diag to the list) to also check any DIAGNOSTICS_[]FILL* call.
252        New S/R to print error message and stop when pkgStatus is not right.
253      - to try: add a warning when "data.diagnostics" exist but useDiagnostics=F.
254    
255    checkpoint64m (2013/08/13)
256    o model/inc:
257      - move FCORI_MACROS.h from PARAMS(_MACROS).h to GRID_MACROS.h (left from
258        8 yrs ago modif when Coriolis arrays were moved from PARAMS.h to GRID.h)
259    o pkg/kpp & aim_v23:
260      - only call DIAGNOSTICS_FILL when useDiagnostics=TRUE.
261    o pkg/seaice:
262      - restore (last time on 2011/12/24) ability to compile pkg/seaice with
263        undefined pkg/exf ALLOW_ATM_TEMP or ALLOW_RUNOFF CPP-options.
264      - only call DIAGNOSTICS_FILL when useDiagnostics=TRUE.
265    o eesupp/src:
266      - fix check for overlap-size argument (myOLn.GT.MAX_OLY_EXCH)
267        in exch1_rx[_ad].template (thanks to Francois Lefeuvre report).
268    o switch to TAF version-2:
269      - add flow directives to "freeze" naming convention for ad-routines that
270        are used in I/O routines of adjoint state and associated common blocks
271        that are used in adcommon.h (backward compatible with version-1)
272      - update all ad-optfiles (in tools/adjoint_options + few local to some
273        verification exp) to switch to latest TAF version (currently 2.5.5);
274        merge "*_mpi" adoptfiles into the corresponding non-mpi (but commented
275        out except for diva).
276      - the major change with TAF version-2 is that both the differentiated
277        routines and the forward routines (new) are returned as part of the TAF
278        output source code. Update genmake2 accordingly.
279      - new output for AD experiment tutorial_global_oce_biogeo (better AD gradient
280        with version-2 when compared to TLM or FWD gradient); other experiments
281        output show minor changes (machine truncation level); update the few AD &
282        TLM output with 12 matching digits only (some prior to version-2 switch).
283    
284    checkpoint64l (2013/08/05)
285    o model/src:
286      - in dynamics.F, skip the call to CALC_VISCOSITY if momViscosity=F
287      - main_do_loop.F: no longer includes additional (AUTODIFF) header files
288        when using TAF but only if using OpenAD.
289    o pkg/mom_common+fluxform+vecinv:
290      - always set horiz. viscosity arrays to background value before calling
291        MOM_CALC_VISC (in MOM_FLUXFORM & MOM_VECINV) and call S/R MOM_CALC_VISC
292        only when using variable horiz. viscosity (useVariableVisc=T);
293      - simplify mom_vecinv.F (only 1 block for momViscosity).
294    o pkg/mom_common: variable horiz. viscosity in NH code
295      - move horiz-viscosity 3-D arrays viscAh_W & viscA4_W (used in calc_gw.F)
296        from model/inc/NH_VARS.h to pkg/mom_common/MOM_VISC.h
297      - store in common block (in MOM_VISC.h) logical parameters: useHarmonicVisc,
298        useBiharmonicVisc & useVariableVisc.
299      - fix old bug (already in 1rst implementation of variable horizontal viscosity
300        in calc_gw.F, version 1.27, 2006/06/20):
301        horizontal bi-harmonic viscosity in gW was missing when wiscA4W=0
302        even if variable bi-harmonic viscosity (e.g., viscA4Grid) was non-zero.
303      - change background horiz viscosity in vertical momentum (gW) to always be
304        viscAhW,viscA4W (instead of switching to viscAhD, viscA4D when using
305        any type of variable viscosity, e.g., viscAh/4Grid)
306      - change default value of viscAhW,viscA4W to viscAhD,viscA4D (instead of
307        viscAh,viscA4) which default to viscAh,viscA4 :  this avoid missing
308        horiz. viscosity in W eq when just setting viscAhD/Z,viscA4D/Z (since
309        default viscAh,viscA4 is zero).
310    o model/src:
311      - extend length of drC & recip_drC from Nr to Nr+1.
312    o Divided Adjoint (DIVA) with MPI:
313      - genmake2: do not create local ./mpi_headers dir when no file to copy into.
314      - remove option ALLOW_DIVIDED_ADJOINT_MPI (replaced by ALLOW_DIVIDED_ADJOINT
315        and ALLOW_USE_MPI) from model/src code and from ECCO_CPPOPTIONS.h.
316    
317    checkpoint64k (2013/07/23)
318    o tools/OAD_support:
319      - avoid the need for file "oadtempflile" in insertTemplateDir.bash
320        and remove it from genmake2.
321    o tools/build_options:
322      - remove MPI_HEADER_FILES_INC setting (no longer used) and comment out
323        MPI_HEADER_FILES list (let genmake2 find the missing headers)
324    o verification/halfpipe_streamice:
325      - change to driving stress formulation; update both Fwd & AD output.
326    o tools/genmake2 and Divided Adjoint with MPI:
327      - remove default setting of MPIINCLUDEDIR from $MPIHOME (always been broken);
328      - only create local ./mpi_headers dir if using MPI and MPIINCLUDEDIR is set;
329      - add new variable (LOCAL_MPI_HEADERS, replace MPI_HEADER_FILES_INC) in
330        Makefile, which is set by genmake2, and check which mpi-headers are needed.
331        Note: need to update adjoint_options/adjoint_diva_mpi accordingly.
332      - update target "CLEAN" (to also remove ./mpi_headers/ dir).
333    o testreport:
334      - changes for Divided Adjoint Run: when file "run_ADM_DIVA" is present,
335        perform additional runs (number of additional runs is "add_DIVA_runs" taken
336        from file run_ADM_DIVA ; should match "nchklev_3" in file "code_ad/tamc.h").
337    o verification/lab_sea (AD test):
338      - change to test Divided Adjoint Run in this set-up (both standard AD test
339        and 2 secondary AD test: noseaice + noseaicedyn); drop the evp AD test.
340    o pkg atm_ & ocn_compon_interf:
341      - remove cpl_earlyExpImpCall=F option (was mainly a hack added for the old
342        staggerTimeStep implementation) and disable (retired) corresponding
343        parameter.
344    o pkg/offline:
345      - comment out unused field-array: ICEM, ConvectCount, hflx[01], icem[01];
346      - add S/R OFFLINE_CHECK to print offline parameter summary
347        and stop if loading a file that is not used;
348      - enable to calculate GMRedi tensor, KPP mixing and convective index
349        when the corresponding file(s) is/are not specified (but pkg is used).
350      - comment out resetting of monitorFreq (to endTime) since it still useful
351        for monitoring CFL numbers and checking offline fields.
352    o OpenAD:
353      - do not define OAD_DEBUG (in tools/adjoint_options/adjoint_oad) to get
354        smaller standard output) and generate new (smaller) output (on baudelaire
355        using gfortran with -ieee) for exp. tutorial_tracer_adjsens
356    o model/src:
357      - call EXTERNAL_FORCING_SURF outside bi,bj loops (in do_oceanic_phys.F),
358        (where external_forcing_adjust was called) and change list of arguments;
359      - merge external_forcing_adjust.F into external_forcing_surf.F
360      - put surface relaxation of SST & SSS in new S/R (forcing_surf_relax.F)
361        which also contains balancing surface relaxation (ALLOW_BALANCE_RELAX,
362        previously in file "balance_relax.F", now removed); remove corresponding
363        arrays in FFIELDS.h.
364      - EXTERNAL_FORCING_SURF is now called when using pkg/offline; implement
365        a hack for getting back surfaceForcingS (loaded from file) when using
366        ALLOW_OLD_VIRTUALFLUX (pkg/dic, in DIC_OPTIONS.h) in offline set-up.
367      - update output of AD test experiment global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice_dynmix
368        (was getting only 11 digits for AD-grad, due to different truncation
369         error in AD code).
370    
371    checkpoint64j (2013/07/04)
372    o pkg/offline:
373      - to enable the use of other features with pkg offline (e.g., obcs),
374        also call S/R DO_OCEANIC_PHYS in offline run - more modifs to come.
375      - comment out "allowFreezing" (now active) in 2 offline testing exp.
376    o pkg/exf ALLOW_RUNOFTEMP
377      - fix sign and make compatible with temp_EvPrRn .NE. UNSET_RL
378      - ahdded RUNOFTEMP test to verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/input.seaice
379      - changes verification/global_ocean.cs32x15/results/output.seaice.txt
380    o pkg/atm_phys:
381      - allows to add some damping on uVel,vVel (strength only function of k).
382    o verification, ad-tests:
383      - reduce length of the simulation for AD test: global_ocean.cs32x15.seaice,
384        global_ocean_ebm and offline_exf_seaice.thsice.
385    o verification/halfpipe_streamice:
386      - found a bug in s/r pkg/streamice/streamice_advect_thickness which caused
387        flux input boundary conditions to be ignored; a fix for this bug changed
388        verification results for forward test.
389      - add adjoint test.
390    o pkg/ptracers:
391      - allow to restart without SOM pickup (resetting SOM to zero).
392    o pkg/gmredi:
393      - New parameterisation for the calculation of K and (GM_PsiX,GM_PsiY) added.
394      - It uses mixing length theory and suppression by steering level effects to
395        calculate a diffusivity used in the Redi tensor (see Bates et al., submitted
396        to JPO, for more details).
397      - It also uses the diffusivity to calculate an eddy induced streamfunction
398        based on a PV closure (rather than a buoyancy closure as in GM).
399      - New files added to pkg/gmredi:
400        gmredi_k3d.F calculates the diffusivity for the Redi tensor and the eddy
401          induced overturning streamfunction (called from gmredi_calc_tensor)
402        gmredi_calc_eigs.F calculates the eigenvalues and eigenvectors required
403          for use in gmredi_k3d
404        gmredi_calc_urms.F calculates the the rms eddy velocity used to calculate
405          the eddy diffusivity
406    
407    checkpoint64i (2013/06/18)
408    o pkg/cheapaml:
409      - take src files from MITgcm_contrib/verification_other/offline_cheapaml/code
410        that enable the use of seaice (pkg/thsice thermo & pkg/seaice dynamics)
411        with pkg/cheapaml.
412    o utils/python: add subpackage for cubed sphere function, first example is
413        simple cs.pcol to plot 2D fields on a map
414    o pkg/streamice:
415      - This is a new package in MITgcm, which solves dynamic equations for ice
416         sheets and ice streams
417      - At the moment it is independent of atmosphere/ocean dynamics, or any
418        other physical packages in MITgcm, even ShelfIce (although it is anticipat-
419        ed that this will change)
420      - There is a new verification exercise that tests it, halfpipe_streamice,
421        evolves a 40x80 km ice stream/ice shelf (at coarse resolution) in a
422        rectangular embayment
423      - halfpipe_streamice is forward-only for now, will have TAF test soon
424      - for questions, email dgoldber@mit.edu
425    o pkg/thsice:
426      - fix filling of snow-precip diagnostic (SIsnwPrc) (left from the removing
427        of snowPrc from common bloc, on May 2nd, thsice_step_fwd.F revision 1.40);
428      - remove diagnostics 'SI_FrcFx' ( now identical to 'SI_Fract' with new
429         call sequence: ice-Thermo(thsice),ice-Dyn,ice-Advect );
430      - allow precip from pkg/cheapaml to make snow over seaice.
431    o pkg/cfc:
432      - move in separated header file (CFC_ATMOS.h) time-serie arrays of Atmos CFC
433      - remove atmos CFC 2-D arrays from common bloc (now local variables)
434      - change some hard-coded constant to run time parameter for reading and
435        and interpolating atmospheric CFC ; keep same default as previously.
436      - more flexible reading of Atmos CFC (number of records no longer hard-coded)
437      - put arguments in standard order: myTime, myIter, myThid
438      - use standard S/R GET_PERIODIC_INTERVAL for time interpolation of
439        atmospheric CFC ; fix for the case myIter < PTRACERS_iter0.
440      - fix calculation of surf tendencys for partial-cell and/or Non-Lin Free-Surf
441      - new routine to print summary of CFC params and check for consistency.
442    o pkg/seaice: add uice/vice to the parameter list of s/r seaice_advdiff,
443      similar to thsice_advdiff.
444      Note that for the B-grid case the routine parameters uc/vc are overwritten.
445    o pkg/cfc:
446      - change time interpolation for atmospheric CFC-11 (now same as for CFC-12);
447        update output (CFC-11) of experiment cfc_example and tutorial_cfc_offline.
448      - fix interpolation of atmphspheric CFC between Sorthern and Northern
449        hemisphere value.
450    o pkg/seaice:
451      - allow to use seaice dynamics without pkg/exf (e.g., using pkg/cheapaml)
452    o pkg/seaice: add Adams-Bashforth2 time discretization for ice dynamics;
453                  so far only for JFNK-solver, turn on with SEAICEuseAB2 = .TRUE.
454      - requires an additional time level that is stored in the pickup
455      - you can start with AB2 from a pickup without this time level with
456        pickupStrictlyMatch = .false.
457    
458    checkpoint64h (2013/05/26)
459    o pkg/cheapaml:
460      - replace one ()**.5 with SQRT + use temp var "cdu = tau/Du" (coare3_flux);
461        affect machine truncation (but exp cheapAML_box still pass with 13 digits).
462      - consistent treatment of uWind,vWind location: assume everywhere in
463        pkg/cheapaml that they are on C-grid (@ uVel,vVel location)
464        (Note: was already the case for Tair,Qair advection);
465        add option (INCONSISTENT_WIND_LOCATION) to recover old results.
466      - compute diabatic forcing only in the interior (excluding overlap regions)
467      - fill in array "Qsw" (for short-wave heating);
468      - add diagnostic for precip ; fill-in diagnostics for cheapAML state vars
469        before any update (consistent with MITgcm state var diagnostics);
470      - cheapaml_fields_load.F & cheapaml_init_varia.F : only fill outer edges if
471        non periodic ; + adjusted for uWind,vWind (C-grid).
472    o pkg/seaice:
473      - remove dependence of pkg/seaice versus pkg/exf (file: pkg/pkg_depend) and
474        add explicitly pkg/exf in experiments that currently use pkg/seaice.
475      - allows to compile pkg/seaice without pkg/exf.
476    o tools/OAD_support:
477      - use a local copy (ourRWCPinBd) to ensure index ourRWCP stays within bounds
478        of array "ourStepOf" in function rvNextAction (revolve.F90).
479    o pkg/aim_compon_interf renamed to pkg/atm_compon_interf
480      - change pkg name (to be used with other atmospheric physics pkg)
481        but by-pass CVS when making the new pkg so that we keep the CVS history.
482    o pkg/offline:
483      - call OFFLINE_FIELDS_LOAD from pkg/offline/offline_init_varia.F
484        (previously called from pkg/dic_surfforcing_init.F)
485    o model/src:
486      - re-order sequence of calls within packages_init_variables.F, using
487        standard order, except for:
488         DIAGNOSTICS_INIT_VARIA and OFFLINE_INIT_VARIA (called @ the top),
489         CTRL_MAP_INI and OBCS_INIT_VARIABLES (called @ the bottom)
490    o new pkg: atm_phys
491      - add entry point and source code (previously in contrib
492          verification_other/atm_gray/code_gray/) for new pkg "atm_phys"
493        (atmospheric physics pkg from P. O'Gorman and T. Schneider, JCl, 2008).
494      - re-order sequence of calls within packages_readparms.F,
495         packages_init_fixed.F and packages_write_pickup.F
496        (but skip packages_init_variables.F because of TAF issues).
497      - update contrib/*/atm_gray/ experiment.
498    o pkg/seaice (ITD code):
499      - simplify and fix the writing of pickup-files for ITD case
500    o pkg/seaice (ITD code):
501      - introduce floe size dependent lateral melt for ITD case;
502      - cleaning (avoid division by zero, change to f77 syntax, remove tabs)
503      - update seaice_itd experiment main output.
504    o pkg/thsice:
505      - remove snowPrc from common block THSICE_FLUX, in THSICE_VARS.h and
506        declared it locally (without bi,bj) in thsice_main.F & aim_do_physics.F;
507        changed accordingly pkg/atm2d.
508    
509    checkpoint64g (2013/05/01)
510    o pkg/exf ALLOW_RUNOFTEMP
511      - if defined,  river and glacier runoff temperature can be read-in from
512        runoftempfile; runoftempfile needs to have same format as runofffile
513    o pkg/thsice (& pkg/bulk_force):
514      - In case Energy-Reference-Level (ERL) is used (temp_EvPrRn=0), account
515        for energy content of Precip + RunOff & Evap (like with pkg/exf).
516      - change computation domain to always be the interior (without overlap).
517      - fix bug (wrong overlap) when using EXF and stressReduction > 0.
518    o verification/tutorial_global_oce_biogeo:
519      - add preliminary OpenAD setup (still has problems)
520    o pkg/seaice:
521      - turn some parameters for choosing the convergence criterion of
522        the inexact Newton method (JFNK) into runtime parameters for convenience
523      - clean up seaice_calc_viscosities.F: remove/retire two options for
524        SEAICetaZmethod (1,2), introduce area weighting for method 3; this changes
525        the results of lab_sea/input because a division has been replaced by
526        a multiplication with the reciprocal (sumNorm)
527      - modify offline_exf_seaice/input.dyn_jfnk/data.seaice to improve
528        convergence of solver (changes results, of course), and to test some
529        new features
530    o model/src:
531      - remove unused (since Aug 2006) S/R SET_WRITE_GLOBAL_PICKUP and its call.
532      - remove unused forcing field "dQdT" and associated parameter "dQdTFile".
533      - move forcing adjustment (balancing surface forcing) in specific S/R
534        where might also be applied exchanges (if needed) to forcing arrays.
535    o pkg/shelfice:
536      - allow to specify the Ice-Shelf mass per unit area (instead of
537        shelficeLoadAnomaly) and do the conversion from one to the other
538      - move loading from file of shelficeLoadAnomaly from SHELFICE_INIT_VARIA
539        to SHELFICE_INIT_FIXED: (a) avoid some TAF recompution issues and
540        (b) will be loaded in time (before calling INI_PRESSURE) in case it is
541        needed in phi0surf for initial pressure calculation when useDynP_inEos_Zc
542      - update isomip experiment forward output (get machine truncation error
543        from conversion shelficeLoadAnomaly -> shelficeMass -> shelficeLoadAnomaly)
544    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
545      revise data.seaice in input.thermo and input_ad and update results accordingly
546        HO = 0.2, SEAICE_areaLossFormula = 2,
547        SEAICE_growMeltByConv = .TRUE.,
548        SEAICE_doOpenWaterMelt = .TRUE.,
549      Improve consistency with input.thsice and fix the spurious 500m ice corners
550    o verification/global_ocean.cs32x15:
551      - set Energy Reference Level to liq. water @ 0 degC: temp_EvPrRn=0.,
552        in icedyn (thsice+seaice-dyn) test and update output.
553    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
554      - adjust list of tested variables (with testreport) and update
555        standard test output with better slection of monitored fields.
556    o pkg/cd_code:
557      - swtich off Adams-Bashforth on the 1rst iteration. Update output of
558        experiment lab_sea.hb87
559    o tools/genmake2:
560      - change default makedepend from the system default to tools/xmakedepend:
561        When no makedepend is specified, select tools/xmakedepend it the test pass,
562        otherwise select the system default (if exist and pass the test) or
563        try to build cyrus-makedepend ; stop if none of the 3 works.
564    o pkg/exf & pkg/thsice:
565      - In case Energy-Reference-Level (ERL) is used (temp_EvPrRn=0), account
566        for energy content of Precip + RunOff & Evap. Assumes:
567       1) Rain has same temp as Air.
568       2) Snow has no heat capacity (consistent with seaice & thsice pkgs)
569       3) Run-Off comes at the temp of surface water (with same Cp)
570       4) Evap over ocean is released to the Atmos @ surf-temp (=SST); should be
571        put directly into Latent Heat flux & should use water-vapor heat capacity.
572       5) Evap over snow/seaice (pkg/thsice) assumes constant Lf+Lv (consistent
573        with snow having no Cp) => water vapor is released to Atmos @ 0^oC (=ERL).
574    o pkg/seaice: simplify the use of CPP flags in JFNK-related files
575        (compile when SEAICE_ALLOW_JFNK is defined)
576    o pkg/thsice:
577      - fix oceanic flux diagnostics & timeave (left from new sequence of calls
578        implementation): move THSICE_AVE call after the advection (called directly
579        from thsice_do_advect.F).
580    o verification/global_ocean.90x40x15 and OpenAD:
581      New experiment for OpenAD is identical to the one in input_ad except that
582        multiDimAdvection=.FALSE.,
583      There is still an issue with this.
584    o pkg/thsice:
585      - account for ice velocity (ocean relative velocity) in turbulent heat flux
586        at the base of the ice; update output of global_ocean.cs32x15 (icedyn)
587        and offline_exf_seaice (main test).
588    
589    checkpoint64f (2013/03/31)
590    o verification/OpenAD:
591      - new (smaller, without OAD_DEBUG) output_oadm.txt generated using gfortran.
592    o verification/isomip, pkg/shelfice and OpenAD:
593    - add OpenAD setup to this exp and make shelfice package work with OpenAD    - add OpenAD setup to this exp and make shelfice package work with OpenAD
594  o verification/offline_exf_seaice: replace adjoint experiment.  o verification/tutorial_global_oce_biogeo:
595      - update AD and TLM output after turning off ALLOW_FE (in DIC_OPTIONS.h)
596    o verification/offline_exf_seaice:
597      - replace adjoint experiment (now similar to fwd input.thermo/ setup).
598  o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens, pkg/ptracers and OpenAD:  o verification/tutorial_tracer_adjsens, pkg/ptracers and OpenAD:
599    - add OpenAD setup to this exp and make ptracers package work with OpenAD    - add OpenAD setup to this exp and make ptracers package work with OpenAD
600  o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp.F: mask the asymmetric contribution of the ice-ocean  o pkg/seaice/seaice_evp.F:
601    stress (when the turningAngle is non-zero) over open water to avoid     mask the asymmetric contribution of the ice-ocean stress (when
