ChangeLog Entry
In src/Applications/GEOSgcm_App/ChangeLog:
==========================================================================
25May2016, Takacs, CVS Tag: Heracles-5_2 (AKA: Heracles-5_2_BETA_1MOPS, non-zero diff to Heracles-5_1)
Module: GEOSagcm
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) Updates to 2-Moment Microphysics
2) Revert back to Single-Moment Microphysics of e5131_fp (Ganymed-4_1),but with fixed bug in PRECIP3 argument list
3) Merge LAND with tag: SM-LDASsa_m3-16_0_p2_CatchCatchCN_for_MERRA3
4) Fix to CO2 Emission Files
5) Merge to incorporate Yury's Heracles-4_3_UNSTABLE-CICE_thermo (zero diff when running DataSeaIce)
6) Changed default for BKGAVE in Regular REPLAY to (2/3)xREPLAY_FREQUENCY (Nominally 4 hours)
7) Fixed averaging interval related to BKGAVE in Regular REPLAY (bug caused -3hr endpoint to be omitted in average)
8) Fixed bug in GWD Mid-Layer GeoPotential Height Calculation
9) Updates to QUICKPLOT
10) Updates to MAPL
11) Updates to GMI
12) Changed ROTATE from TRUE to FALSE for Dump_&_Splash WIND INCREMENTS in DyCorGridComp
13) Updates to fvcore_layout.rc (defaults to so-called "2b3b" case based on H52 Forecast Layout Experiments)
14) Updates to sw_core.F90 and tp_core.F90 associated with fvlayout "2b3b"
15) Changed Defaults to Regular REPLAY Grid Transforms within MKIAU Source Code to BiLinary Interpolaton:
BKG2ANACNSRV: 0 ( Note: Conservative Transformation creates Non-Wavenumber 1 Winds at Poles )
ANA2BKGCNSRV: 0 ( Note: Conservative Transformation creates Non-Wavenumber 1 Winds at Poles )
16) NOTE: Lat/Lon version of GEOSagcm no-longer regresses. Last known version which regresses is Heracles-4_3
Investigation still in progress to determine cause.
Restart Changes: none
==========================================================================
12Jan2016, Takacs, CVS Tag: Heracles-5_1 (non-zero diff to Heracles-5_0)
Module: GEOSagcm
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) Updates to CO emissions
2) Updates to GMIchem_GridComp
3) Updates to TR_GridComp
4) Default to Use SST Cool Layer
5) Changed Defaults for SST and Regular REPLAY Grid Transform parameteres within AGCM.rc:
INTERPOLATE_SST: 0 or 1 ( Defaults are now model decisions based on grid resolution comparisons )
BKG2ANACNSRV: 0 or 1 ( Defaults are now model decisions based on grid resolution comparisons )
ANA2BKGCNSRV: 0 or 1 ( Defaults are now model decisions based on grid resolution comparisons )
Restart Changes: yes
Additional Imports to: tr_import_rst (Bootstrappable)
==========================================================================
07Dec2015, Takacs, CVS Tag: Heracles-5_0
Module: GEOSagcm
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) Updates to 2nd-moment microphysics
2) Updates GMIchem_GridComp to tag: Heracles-UNSTABLE_GMI as of 10Nov2015
3) Update to tag: mat-HU-FixRRTMGLW-v_1 to fix regression issue in RRTMG
4) Updates to QUICKSTAT to compute Confidence
5) Updates to QUICKPLOT
6) Fixed Reverse Order Argument List error for cloudnew.F90 (wrt: VFALLRN & VFALLSN)
7) Implemented RASPARAM.F90 and CLDPARAM.F90 for clarity. (zero-diff)
8) Updated DUST Optical Tables from v14.2 to v15.3
Note: This change affects ALL Emission Types: OPS, MERRA2, PIESA, etc.
The only way to get the original MERRA2 emission files is to run with the MERRA2 Tag.
9) Fixed SS_GridComp to maskout emissions over Great Lakes and Capsian Sea.
10) Changed Default Parameters: SYNCTQ = 1 (ON)
PRECIPRAD = 1 (ON)
CLDMICRO = 2MOMENT
11) Changed Single-Moment MicroPhysics behavior. (Note: Default is 2-Moment)
Restart Changes: none
==========================================================================
21Sep2015, Takacs, CVS Tag: Heracles-4_3 (zero-diff to Heracles-4_2)
Module: GEOSagcm
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) Implemented new saltwater merge with CICE (zero-diff if disabled)
2) Updates to 2nd-moment microphysics, tag: b_HR42_091015_2M
3) Updates Surface/Shared/Raster from Sarith for latest BC development
Restart Changes: none
==========================================================================
14Aug2015, Takacs, CVS Tag: Heracles-4_2 (zero-diff to Heracles-4_1)
Module: GEOSagcm
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) Added AGCM.rc parameter: MAPL_ENABLE_BOOTSTRAP
The Default valus is "NO", which means that ALL restart files must exist and
the must contain ALL variables used by the model.
By setting MAPL_ENABLE_BOOTSTRAP: YES
the model will bootstrap all missing variables from the restarts which
are classified as OPTIONAL. This works for both binary and nc4 files.
Currently, all variables within the model restarts are OPTIONAL (by default)
except for:
1) ALL variables within fvcore_internal_rst (except DZ and W)
2) Q-Vapor within moist_internal_rst
3) All variables within catch_internal_rst
You can still bootstrap individual restarts by placing the "+" or "-"
as before, together with MAPL_ENABLE_BOOTSTRAP: NO
However, there is no mechanism to bootstrap REQUIRED variables.
Only variables that are classified as OPTIONAL are bootstrappable.
Restart Changes: none
Note: +/- notation no longer needed
==========================================================================
04Aug2015, Takacs, CVS Tag: Heracles-4_1 (non-zero-diff to Heracles-4_0)
Module: GEOSagcm
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) Modified GOCART to use ExtData for IMPORTS
2) Updates to QUICKPLOT
3) Fixed LandIce ALBEDO diagnostic (zero-diff)
4) Added GCMICHEM and STRATCHEM setups and HISTORY
5) Added rs_numtiles(.F90, .x) to check ocean tiles for consistency with BCs
Restart Changes: none
Note: Converts to NC4 Restarts automatically
Running Heracles 5.2
- Heracles 5.2 Quick Start: This page describes the minimum steps required to build and run GEOS-5 Heracles 5.2 on NCCS discover and NAS pleiades. You should successfully complete the steps in these instructions before doing anything more complicated.
