195 >>>> from JM
196
197
198 manual, section.2 :
199
200 In general:
201 - add more refences/links to S/R & variable name
202 - would be nice to have an active link to the fortran-file
203 for all the S/R & eq.Number in the "calling-tree" boxes
204 - search for CALC_MOM_RHS and replace it by the appropriate S/R
205 (mom_flux_form, mom_vecinv, dynamics)
206 - Problem with notation: in section.1 \vec{\bf v_h} (or \vec{\mathbf{v}}_{h})
207 was used for the horizontal velocity vector, and the 3.D vector was \vec{\mathbf{v}}
208 in section.2, \vec{\bf v} is used instead and 3.D velocity vector is
209 simply written \vec{v}.
210 I would suggest to keep the notation as they are (since they are consistent
211 inside each section) but may be to move the "notation.tex" piece
212 at the beginning of section.2 and to mention clearly the changes between
213 the 2 sections.
214
215 in content: Horizontal Dissipation: 2 times in vector-invariant section
216
217 2.1 time-stepping (part2/time_stepping.tex)
218
219 - this is not clear to me:
220
221 >> In all the above configurations it is also possible to substitute the
222 >> Adams-Bashforth with an alternative time-stepping scheme for terms
223 >> evaluated explicitly in time
224
225
226 2.2 rigid-lid:
227
228 - At some point, would be better to replace "g \eta" with "\Phi_s (cg2d_x)"
229 to stay closer to the code.
230 - mention section 2.5 implicit-Time-stepping (for vertical viscosity)
231
232 2.3 linear free-surface:
233 - add ref(+link) to S/R names:
234 - add ref(+link) to Crank-Nickelson section 2.9.1
235
236 2.4 Adams-Bashforth
237 - add stability diagrams (I have some figures that I can put)
238 - add link for var. forcing_In_AB
239 - add S/R link for S/R ADAMS_BASHFORTH2
240
241 2.5 Implicit time-stepping
242 - add name of S/R: IMPLDIFF, GAD_IMPLICIT_R, MOM_U_IMPLICIT_R
243 SOLVE_TRIDIAGONAL, SOLVE_PENTADIAGONAL
244 - update: also used for vertical advection
245
246 2.6 Synchronous time-stepping:
247 - add link for S/R THERMODYNAMICS, DYNAMCIS, SOLVE_FOR_PRESSURE,
248 MOMENTUM_CORRECTION_STEP.
249
250 2.7 Stagger baroclinic time-stepping
251 - mention AB(T,S) instead of AB(Gt,Gs) (in development) at the end
252
253 2.8 NH
254 - add link & S/R names: CALC_GW, SOLVE_FOR_PRESSURE, CG3D
255
256 2.9 Variants on Free-Surface
257 - Delta.t mis-written (eq.2.73)
258 - Eq.Num missing (has been fixed since)
259 - u* is stored in gU (and not in gUnm1)
260 - Phi_nh in NH_VARS.h
261 - add link to S/R file: SOLVE_FOR_PRESSURE, CALC_DIV_GHAT, CG2D, CG3D,
262 INI_CG2D, INI_CG3D
263
264 2.9.1 Crank-Nickelson
265 - link for variable: implicSurfPress, implicDiv2DFlow, useRealFreshWater
266
267 2.9.2 NLFS
268 - eq.Nb are wrong in html
269 - 2.9.2.4 : set of eq. appears wrong in html (but right in .dvi)
270
271 2.10.1 Notation
272 - Area definition is not really used like this
273
274 >> Ao : Area of the face orthogonal to "o" direction (o=u,v,w)
275
276 Instead, in the following section, Ac,Aw,As,A_zeta (= corresponding to
277 the model variables) are used (e.g., see section 2.10.5)
278
279 2.10.5 Horizontal grid:
280 - fig.2.8 : should use Aw,As consistently in this figure description,
281 in the figure itself, as it is in the text.
282 - curvilinear:
283 to add: mention the angle of the grid direction relative to
284 Eastward, Northward direction.
285 + mention horizGridFile= in file "data" (PARM04)
286 - add cylindrical polar grid description
287 need to do a better job of relating model variables to this diagram
288
289
290 2.11 Continuity & Horizontal Pressure gradient terms
291 - mention that d.Phi/dr|s =g if using z coordinate
292 - eq. 2.90 not clear regarding \delta_k(P-E)
293 better to add the free surface eq: d.eta/dt = w_s + P-E
294
295 2.12 Hydrostatic balance
296 - add ref to Atmosphere Appendix section (1.4) since Adcroft 2002
297 is hard to find
298 - add ref to section 1.3.4 (Hydrostatic, Quasi-Hydrostatic & Non-H)
299 and in section 1.3.4: remove the 1.3.4.3.2 subsection:
300 Quasi-nonhydrostatic Atmosphere
301
302 2.13.2 Coriolis terms
303 - note: the discretization used when useEnergyConservingCoriolis=T
304 has no hFac and no Area and is still different from the form
305 described here (with Area & hFac);
306
307 2.13.5 Lateral dissipation
308 - add description of how to use cosFactor & cosPower
309 - add the parameter correspondence: Ah <-> viscAh ; A4 <-> viscA4
310 o need to relate c11, c12 etc.. to COSFAC, USE_COS etc... flags
311 in code need to explain why cos()3/2 turns out to be
312 scaling (not cos()2)
313 - need to reference the smag/leith section.
314
315 2.13.6 Vertical dissipation
316 - mention the implicit vertical viscosity option and ref to section 2.5
317 - add the parameter correspondence: Av <-> viscAr (and might change also
318 the notation to Ar)
319
320 2.14 Vector invariant momentum equations
321 - indicate that the NH pieces (vertical momentum eq) are not yet coded
322 and that the NH code uses the flux form.
323
324 2.14.6 Horizontal dissipation -> Horizontal Divergence
325
326 2.14.7 Horizontal dissipation
327 - add the parameter correspondence: A_D,A_z <-> viscAhD,viscAhZ
328 and A_D4,A_z4 <-> viscA4D,viscA4Z
329
330 2.16 & 2.17 & 2.18 :
331 - add 1rst Order upwind option & DST-2 (Lax-Wendroff) options
332
333 2.20.2 mercator, non-dimensional Equations:
334 - does not use std notation
335 - would be better as an appendix of section 2.20:
336 (e.g changing the tile to:
337 - talk to Baylor
338 Appendix: non-dimensional Equations on Spherical-Polar grid.)

344 >>>> From Andrea
345
346 Chapter 3
347 --------
348
349 Almost all of the 'math mode' text is dropped down as subscripts
350
351 3.1 - don't need a link to the outside of the document (remove it)
352 - link to htdig is broken
353
354 3.2.1 - link at bottom to source code points to section 3.2.1
355 (ie, to itself) - link should point to cvs code archive
356
357 3.2.2.1 - ('upgrading from an earlier version') belongs under
358 the cvs part, ie, should be 3.2.1.1
359
360 3.3 - remove reference to 'diags' section under MITgcm
361 - remove reference to 'exe' and 'bin' sections also
362 (remove the .cvsignore file under these directories in cvs)
363 - add a 'jobs' section, and a description as examples of run scripts
364 - add 'lsopt', 'optim' and 'tutorial examples' with brief descriptions
365 - under 'tools' add a reference to 'build_options'. refer to the 'optfiles'
366 - under 'tools' the adjoint points to section 5 - this is now section 8
367 (but should be a floating reference)
368 - under 'utils' add a reference to exch2 - stuff for different resolutions
369 - the description of the pkg section refers directly to
370 section 3. should be section 6 (actually should be a floating reference)
371
372 3.4 - refer to sections 3.8 - 3.18 (now says 3.8 - 3.10)
373 3.4.1 - links to the following experiments don't exist or are broken:
374 exp2 - should link to section 3.9
375 hs94.cs-32x32x5 - link to section 3.12
376 add 'convection' to the list, link to section 3.13
377 add 'plume on slope` to the list, link to section 3.14
378 add '??' link to section 3.15
379 add 'dic_example on slope` to the list, link to section 3.16
380 add '??' link to section 3.17
381 add 'offline' and link to section 3.18
382 clean up others and make links where they are needed
383 3.4.2 - text suggests to see section 2 for details about what is in the 'code'
384 and 'input' directories - should refer to the examples in this section
385 - add 'build' bullet - this is where the model is compiled and exectuable lives
386
387 3.5 - add some little text when talking about 'optfiles' to refer to the tools/build_options
388 as the place where they live (add a link?)
389
390 3.6.1 - Add some general 'approach' text - ie, output is controlled either by the
391 'data' file in the input directory or by the data.[pkg name] file for any
392 package running. And there is some default behavior when the 'state' dumps
393 are written.
394 3.6.1.2 - needs to be moved to inside section 3.6.2
395
396 All the 'overview' sections need some reference to the name of the experiment in
397 the verification directory
398
399 3.10 - in title, 4 degrees - degree symbol is a subscript, not a superscript
400 - is this experiment in the list from section 3.4???
401 3.10.3.1 - refers to figures and equations, links are broken
402
403 3.11.3.2 - line 43: link to equation is broken
404 - line 51-53: link to equation is broken
405 - there is some mess of text hanging around the end of this section. remove? reformat?
406
407 3.12.4.1 - line 34 - link to equation is broken
408 - lines 60,61 - 1st (take out the 'r' in the superscript)
409
410 3.13.2 - link to theta-equation is broken
411 3.13.5.4 -- ALL of the bold links to variable names are broken
412 line 34: link to equation is broken
413
414 3.15.1 - reference to 'fourth experiment' should be removed
415
416 3.16.4 - strange formatting, presence of '>' symbols - remove them
417
418 3.17.3 - unknown verification directory pointed to - also: no link from list in sec 3.4
419 3.17.3.1 - nothing filled in under file input/data - needs description
420
421 3.18.2 - point to section 2 for details - need hyperlink
422
423 3.19.1 - text (2 places) says that section 3.5 called for compile in 'input' directory - not true!
424 section 3.5 has the 'build' directory in the example
425
426 3.20.1 - link to doc at end of section points to this section
427 3.20.2 - link to doc at end of section points to this section
428
429 offline - duplicate inputs, what is it, tidy up cfc v.
430 other offline. JM thinks these need tidying up.
