This minor release addresses several issues in the MPAS-Atmosphere model.

MPAS-Atmosphere:

  • Correct the use of uninitialized memory in the init_atm_case_squall_line
    routine by initializing the qvb array to zero before its first use.

  • Fix a bug in the vertical extrapolation of relative humidity and specific
    humidity to model levels below the lowest first-guess level when first-guess
    levels are given in top-to-bottom order in the input intermediate file.

  • Fix reproducibility issues in several fields within the Noah LSM over land-ice
    points when running with different MPI task counts; however, only one of these
    fields -- smstav, the surface moisture availability field -- persists outside
    of the physics driver and is written to MPAS-Atmosphere restart files.

  • Correct the units and description attributes for the GWDO fields var2d, con,
    oa1, oa2, oa3, oa4, ol1, ol2, ol3, and ol4 in both the init_atmosphere and
    atmosphere core Registry.xml files.

  • Add code that had inadvertently been omitted for computing dtheta_dt_mp, the
    potential temperature heating rate from microphysics. Prior to this change,
    the dtheta_dt_mp field would always contain a constant zero value when written
    to model output files.

  • Correct a check on the availability of the dtheta_dt_mix variable when
    computing depv_dt_mix in the PV diagnostics module.

  • Correct the parallel computation of iLev_DT (and other fields that depend on
    it, including u_pv, v_pv, theta_pv, vort_pv, depv_dt_diab_pv, and
    depv_dt_fric_pv) in the PV diagnostics module.
